How to access tables/views of an external database provider..

After much trouble I finally managed to setup a second Database Provider that doesn't display the "0 out of 0 connections are good" error by filling in the "Configuration Class" field with "intradoc.server.DbProviderConfig".
But now the problem is actually accessing the tables/views in my newly configured external database provider...
In the Configuration Manager applet when I try to add a new Table or View it only lists the tables contained in the schema of the SystemDatabase database provider (the original one), I've tried running Queries via components trying stuff like SELECT * FROM provider_name.table_name and other similar but obviously it doesn't work...
So... with that said, I just want to know how I access tables or views in my "supposedly" well conected (15 out of 15 connections are good, no errors on the Test Query) Oracle external Database Provider - After searching I was unable to find any information regading any post-provider-setup actions in the Content Server documentation - Does anyone know how to do this?
On a side note, if the database is SQLServer instead of Oracle, with the same configuration and apparently no errors on the database side (other clients access it well) the Query Test of the new database provider returns the following error:
"The provider 'TestSqlSrv' is in error. Unable to create database connection for JDBC:ODBC:SqlSrv. Unable to create result set for query 'select * from dummy'. Invalid Fetch Size Unable to create result set for query 'select * from dummy'. Invalid Fetch Size java.sql.SQLException: Invalid Fetch Size".But I won't even go there yet.... for now I would settle with just knowing how to reference information in the Oracle external database provider...

if you are able to, pick up Bex Huff's book the Definitive Guite to Stellent Content Server Development (amazon link: http://www.amazon.com/Definitive-Stellent-Content-Server-Development/dp/1590596846/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1196365101&sr=8-1)
chapter 11 is all about this.

How to Access Maintenance View from a program

Hi Experts,
I have created a maintenance view for a table. i want to insert data's into the table through the maintenance view. I don't know how to access the view, how to insert data into the Maintenance view. Please suggest me how to access the view from the program.
with regards,
James...
Valuable answers will be rewarded...

Hi,
What is the need to search for a program.
Use transaction SM30 or SE16 to create or maintain entries in the table.
e.g. if the Maintenance view is created on table A, then Goto transaction SM30 or SE16 and give the table name as A and proceed. This will automatically take u to the maintenance view on tha table A.

How to create table view

Dear Experts,
how to create table view for single table? and once I create table view I have to create Generic data source so plz provide me the step to create it.
Please search the forum before posting a thread
Edited by: Pravender on May 6, 2011 11:18 AM

Hi,
                     There is big advantage of creating a view for single table rather than RSO2.
            My scenario is like this : My table VBAK has 113 fields i want only 9 fields from them.
                     RSO2: By doing generic extraction with RSO2 it will fetch all 113 fields from the table VBAK.So,it'll definitely degrades the performance . For transferring 9 fields why we have to fetch all 113 fields.
                     VIEW: By using view we can specify some fields in view fields.So, only those 9 fields will be fetched from table. In this extract structure contains 9 field transferring 9 fields.Then we can create generic extraction using this view.

How to access a view object under a nested appmodule in servlet

Hi,
Can anyone tell me how to access a view object under a nested appmodule in a servlet?
I know that I can use
ApplicationModule app = Configuration.createRootApplicationModule(amDef, config);
ViewObject vo = app.findViewObject(viewObjectName);
to get hold of an appmodule and view object.
But in a nested appmodule, for example, I have am0 as root, am1 as child, and voZ within am1, what should I use for this amDef? config? and viewObjectName?
Your help would be much appreciated.

How to Access Table Space Map in Oracle 10g OEM

How and from where to Access Table Space Map in Oracle 10g OEM ??
Thanks

Hi,
first of all, the online help system of grid control is outstanding. Just click on Help in the upper right corner and enter "Tablespace Extent Map" in the search form.
Result:
Show Tablespace Contents Page
Each Oracle database is divided into one or more logical units called tablespaces. You can use Oracle Enterprise Manager to manage these tablespaces and create or modify the parameters for the tablespaces. Use the Tablespace property sheet to set general and storage information for the specified tablespace.
Use the Show Tablespace Contents page to display the list of tablespace segments that comprise the existing tablespace. You can display Tablespace Extents by choosing Show Tablespace Extent Map at the bottom of the page. An extent is a logical unit of database storage space allocation made up of a number of contiguous data blocks. One or more extents in turn make up a segment. When the existing space in a segment is completely used, Oracle allocates a new extent for the segment.
You can view segment extents by clicking on the link in the Extents column to display the Extents in Segments page.
You can display the Show Tablespace Contents page by choosing Show Tablespace Contents from the command drop down list on the Tablespace property page, the Tablespace View page, or the Tablespace search results page.
Note: Developers could only display the tablespace map to a maximum hard coded number of 30,000 extents. Tablespaces are often larger than that. If a tablespace is larger than 30,000 extents, the portion over that is displayed as Unmapped. To avoid exceeding the memory capacity of the tablespace map and to display the map without unmapped extents, use a search criteria displaying results of less than 30K extents.
For an overview of tablespaces, see the "Overview of Tablespaces " chapter of the Oracle Database Concepts Guide.
For more information about managing tablespaces, see the " Managing Tablespaces" chapter of the Oracle Database Administrators Guide.
For more information about managing datafiles, see the " Managing Datafiles and Tempfiles" chapter of the Oracle Database Administrator's Guide.

DB Tool List Table: How to access tables which are in different SQL database ?

Hi, All,
I'm working on a database application (SQL server) and is evaluating the NI DB Tool kit for this project.
One of the requirement is that I need to access tables which are in two different database
(say Table A in DB 1 and Table B in DB 2).
Our IT guys has linked Table A in DB1 to DB 2 and I verfied this when I use the SQL server managment studio.
When DB 2 tables are populated, Table A from DB1 is also there. I can also do the same thing using MS Access.
Table A in DB1 is avalaible to me enven though I only connect to DB 2.
Here comes the problem.
When I use DB Tool List Table.vi to access DB2, it does NOT list Table A in DB1. It only list the tables in
the database (DB2) which I make connection to (using DB Tool Open Connection.vi with a file DSN)
So my work around right now is to open two seperate connection to DB1 and DB2. However, this approach
obviously creates a problem when I have to access seperate database constantly in my application.
What would be a solution to this ? I've search the forum but only see one post that's somewhat related to
my question. (And it was posted on 2004) Perhaps I need to alter the code in the orignial VI (DB Tool List Table.vi)??
My IT guy told me he has not encountered this scenario since he writes codes in other enviroment such as
VB and others, and he's always been successful by linking tables to different database.
I hope my question is sound and clear since I really don't know much about database terminology.
Any comment/suggestion is much appreciated !!!
Thanks
Chad
Solved!
Go to Solution.

To josborne:
To answer your question:
- Are the two databases contained on the same SQL Server instance?
Or are the databases on separate instances? I assume they are on
separate servers, otherwise this wouldn't really be an issue. But its
good to know because it will affect how you build your SQL statements.
Yes they are on separate instances.
- Ask your IT people specifically how they "linked Table A in DB1 to
DB 2". I assume they used "linked servers".
Maybe I used the wrong terminology "linked." They created a "View of Table A (DB1)" in DB2 using the management studio.
Here is a screen shot of that. As you can see, dbo.VISUAL_WORK_ORDER is seen under LABVIEW database in the management studio.
I also see the same table when I make connection to database using MS Access.
Could you elaborate on "configure your SQL statement correctly" =) ? The purpose of using LabView's took kit is so that I can do
minimum SQL statements. Are you talking about modifying LabView's native VI (DB Tool List Table.vi) ?
Thanks for the information. SQL is just something new to me.

How to access tables in another workspace (same server) ?

This one is probably simple, but I can't figure it out : we have different applications in different workspaces but on the same server : how I can simply access tables (read only is enough) in a different workspace than the application ?
Edited by: JJ MAHE - Oracle on Mar 18, 2013 2:07 AM

Hello
If you need access to oracle schema, the schema needs to be assigne to desired workspace. You can configure it in INTERNAL Workspace. One Oracle schema can be assigne to many workspaces.

How to access table ADR6 from smartform

I'm trying to get the email address of a customer in my smartform but I don't know how to pass table ADR6 to my smartform. I've tried using a SELECT statement from ADR6 but nothing ever gets set to the variable, so I'm guessing I need to store the table into a local workspace first? How do I do this? If I'm on the wrong path can someone tell me how to pass in an external table that has no connection to your form interface variables being passed in?

Need not to store the whole table. SELECT statement works in this case. In Global declaration-->Types define the structute with the fields u want to display. like this
TYPES: begin of type_adr6,
        ADDRNUMBER like ADR6-ADDRNUMBER,
        SMTP_ADDR like ADR6-SMTP_ADDR,
       end of type_adr6.
and then declare it in Global data Tab like this
WA_ADR6   TYPE TYPE_ADR6
end then write SELECT statement in program lines node and fetch the required fields into the work area WA_ADR6.
now u display these fields.
