Oracle 10g Discoverer Reports & export to xls fails for large reports

Hi ,
We have following configurations:
1: RHEL 5.4
2: Discoverer :Version 10.1.2.48.18
3: Oracle10g Apps Version : Version 10.1.2.0.2
Issue:
Most of small reports works fine ....but when large discoverer reports are executed the page
keeps on refreshing for 15-20 hours but no output ....same for export to xls ......
But same reports works fine in oracle9i for same data voulme....
Observations:
When on linux with top command the processes are monitored its observed that discoverer process
dis51ws dies for large reports after 1-2 minutes ...& the page keeps on refreshing but no output....
for 1-2 minutes it consumes 50-80% cpu utilisation then process disappears & cpu 80% idle ...
It seems that as 10g Apps is installed on RHEL 5.4 ...non certfified OS causing an issue...
Can any one adds more inputs in this regards......
we have checked logs : below are log details :
Below logs gives "Logkeys: exceptions discoiv.servlet_exceptions" for this report ...

Regards,

Hi ,
as per Note: 466697.1 ....its an memory error....& need to increase MaxVirtualDiskMem and MaxVirtualHeapMem
But we already have slowly increased MaxVirtualDiskMem and MaxVirtualHeapMem to below very high values ...but the issue remains same.......
as per note we are getting Logkeys: exceptions discoiv.servlet_exceptions error but
after that we are not getting below error ............
Unexpected error in state machine: java.lang.OutOfMemoryError
Hence I presume that its different issue rather than memmory....
Below are pref.txt values..........
CacheFlushPercentage          = 25          # Percent of cache flushed if the cache is full. valid values 0 - 100%.
MaxVirtualDiskMem          = 9294967296     # Maximum amount of disk memory allowed for the data cache. Should be greater than or equal to MaxVirtualHeapMem
MaxVirtualHeapMem          = 4294967296     # Maximum amount of heap memory allowed for the data cache.
QueryBehavior = 0          # Action to take after opening a workbook (0 = Run Query Automatically, 1 = Don't Run Query, 2 = Ask for Confirmation)
Also we have raised an SR & as per SR .............all below settings are tried as per SR except for applying a recent patch....
====================================================================
Discoverer performance is largely determined by how well the database
has been designed and tuned for queries.
A well-designed database will perform significantly better than a poorly
designed database.
Workbook design can also affect query performance.
1. Apply latest Discoverer patch as documented in <<Note:237607.1>>
'ALERT: Required and Recommended Patch Levels For All Discoverer Version'.
2. Increase the maximum JVM heap memory:
In general, the default values for the minimum heap (-Xms) memory and
maximum heap (-Xmx) memory are sufficient.
However, if your organization consistently runs large Discoverer queries
then you may benefit from increasing the maximum heap memory from the
default values.
This is recomended if your users are typically running large queries via
Discoverer Viewer.
Increasing the JVM memory can help to avoid "java.lang.OutOfMemoryError"
in Discoverer Viewer:
Please see <<Note 563960.1>>, Best Practice: Configuring The
OC4J_BI_Forms JVM For
Discoverer Viewer/Portlet 10g Performance And Stability for specific
details.
3. Disable Query Prediction:
Query Prediction provides an estimate of the time required to retrieve
the information in a query.
The Query Prediction appears before the query and consumes time.
Edit the <oracle_home>/discoverer/util/pref.txt on the middle-tier
server and set:
QPPEnable=0
Also set:
QPPObtainCostMethod = 0
4. Uncheck the 'Enable fantrap detection' checkbox.
When the box is checked, every query generated by Discoverer is
interrogated. Discoverer will detect a fan trap and rewrite the query to
ensure that the aggregation is done at the correct level.
Please refer to <<Note:210553.1>>, Oracle BI Discoverer: Fan Trap
Resolution - Correct Results
Everytime for more information on fantraps.
To disable, in Plus go to Tools -> Options -> Advanced -> Fan Trap
settings.
In Viewer go to Preferences and uncheck the box.
5. Disable Materialized Views/Summaries
In pref.txt add parameter:
MaterializedViewRedirectionBehavior = 0
Value equal to 0 ensures that Materialized View (MV) Redirection is
always performed when MVs are available.
6. Improve query performance by optimizing the SQL.
In pref.txt modify/add following parameters:
SQLFlatten = 0
SQLItemTrim = 0
SQLJoinTrim = 0
UseOptimizerHints = 0
If value of SQLFlatten is 1 then Discoverer will merge inline views in
the query SQL where ever possible.
In case of SQLItemTrim, Discoverer will remove unused folder items from
the query SQL where possible and for SQLJoinTrim Discoverer will remove
unnecessary joins from the query where possible.
UseOptimizerHints will add Optimizer hints to SQL if set >
0.Unnecessarily making Discoverer perform these checks consumes
resources and rather than increasing the performance may reduce the same. So unless you feel these checks have to be performed depending on
requirements, assign zero to these parameters.
7. When Discoverer builds a query, Discoverer makes a database security
check to confirm that the user has access to the tables referenced in
the folders. Avoiding this check can save time.
So in pref.txt underDatabase section add:
ObjectsAlwaysAccessible = 1
8. Whenever you are creating conditions, ensure that you match the Case.
This in turn can reduce the time Discoverer spends on changing the Case
and matching.
For example:
option Upper(Department) in (Upper('VIDEO SALES')
9. Ensure that summaries are refreshed periodically in Discoverer
Administrator.
10. Increase the amount of memory available for the Discoverer data cache. Please refer to <<Note 245752.1>>, Explaining Oracle BI Discoverer
Session Memory Management
And Server Cache Settings.
11. Performance may be enhanced by enabling OracleAS Web Cache.
==================================================================
Thanks for your reply....................

Oracle 10g webcache as load balancer with Clusterware for HA

Hi All
I'm trying to put together a solution for my organisation to include a resilient load balanced setup without buying hardware load balancing kit. We are implementing an Oracle Forms based product from a software supplier on the Oracle 10g Forms & Reports Services platform v10.1.2.2.0. The intention is to balance the production load of the application across 2 identical Sun T2000 servers - each could support the full load independently if necessary. The servers are geographically separated for resilience. The supplier has recommended implementing Webcache on one of these T2000 servers as a load balancer - this works fine, but presents a single point of failure and no automatic failover.
I have read an Oracle white paper explaining that Oracle Webcache as a load balancer can be made into a HA solution by using Oracle Clusterware. What isn't clear from the paper is this;
1. Whether I need to have Webcache as a load balancer & Clusterware installed separately on a different pair of servers ?
2. Can I simply configure Webcache for load balancing on both of my Sun servers and use Clusterware to failover the load balancing function from one server to the other if one fails ?
Can anyone point me in the right direction with this please ?
Many thanks
Dean

Just a quick answer, please:
If you think about Oracle WebCache as a general application, you will find some useful Technical White Papers on http://otn.oracle.com/clusterware They will explain, how Oracle Clusterware can be used to protect any kind of application.
In general, Oracle Clusterware and Oracle WebCache must be installed on the same set of servers (cluster nodes) in this case. Regarding the question of whether or not you can re-use your 2 SUN servers: It depends.
Oracle Clusterware requires shared storage and a private interconnect. Your current infrastructure might need to be reviewed and enhanced in those regards, especially, since your servers are geographically separated as you said.
Just some ideas. Thanks.

Displaying both Hindi and Arabic numerals in Oracle 10g PDF report

Hi….
Oracle experts told us to ask “In how many ways we can do it in oracle?” instead of asking “Can we do it in Oracle?” , I need ONE way to solve the following problem, it toke to much time and I don’t know if it can be solved !
The problem:
Can we print in - Oracle 10g reports - a PDF report with BOTH Hindi and Arabic numerals?
Well, at design time everything is fine, you can use right-to-left, left-to-right and the print preview is showing BOTH Hindi/Arabic numerals fine, but when I tried to produce it as a PDF, unfortunately its not, means its either all Hindi or all Arabic numerals !
I tried everything possible, environment variables: NLS_LANG, REPORTS_BIDI_ALGORITHM, and REPORTS_ARABIC_NUMERLS, setting Digit substitution to Context in windows regional settings, uifont.ali is modified properly according to metalink note, but nothing solved this issue!
I noticed something, when I used the DESTYPE=printer and DESNAME=PDF995 (one of the PDF printers) , it worked fine , means the problem could be in the generic PDF generator of the Oracle reports server,
But even with PDF995 you still need to feed the file name, which is not suitable for multi-user environment that need the report to be displayed via web browser.
Does anybody face this before?

Export to PDF fails for some reports, but report viewer works

Hi all
Our application produces several different reports.
- Report A can successfully be viewed in the ASP.NET report viewer control and can be exported to PDF
- Reports B and C can successfully be viewed in the ASP.NET report viewer (all pages), but export to PDF fails with a very unclear error message. The stack trace is attached below.
Two days ago, reports B and C have fully worked, and I'm sure by 100% that the report templates haven't been modified since then.
Can anyone explain what is going wrong? Is there some internal logging inside Crystal Reports that can be investigated to find out about the reasons of the error?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks
Kuno
PS.: The Crystal Libraries under investigation are quite old. In fact, it is a very old application that still runs under .NET 1.0.

Hello Kuno,
please try to find out more details.
You say it is data dependent. Could you be a bit more specific. What data work or do not work ?
As a good test pls see if our samples reports work. They come with a default installation. If you do not have them any more - get them from [here|https://smpdl.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/012002523100005852352008E/cr_xi_xtreme_rep_smpl_en.zip].
Can you display and export them ? Do you get the same error ?
Thanks in advance

ORACLE 10g generate reports for audit trail

HELP ORACLE 10 g
I am a beginner about the oracle 10g
anybody can guide me how to start with
generate reports for audit trail , top ten url
, no of hits in the portlets ......
=(
thank you ....

In a nutshell:
1 - You will have to have the portal database schema as your data source.
2 - You will have to design a target database schema with the target data bjects (tables, dimensions and fact tables - cubes) where the data will be loaded for reporting purposes.
3 - Then you will have to model the loading process by defining mappings (mappings will translate into generated code for the load process) and process flows to run the mappings in the right order etc.
4 - You will deploy the sources, targets and processing entities to the target schema.
5 - You will run the deployed code periodically as needed and maintain the source, target and loading entities which might change with time.
One observetion - OWB does not produce reports. It creates and maintains the data infrastructure for a reporting/analysis system (a data warehouse, data mart or an operational data store). To produce reports (for example, the top-10 report mentioned by you), you will have to run a reporting tool on top of the data structures created and maintained by OWB.

Oracle 10g AS report writer needs InfraStructure?

We need to install Oracle 10g AS on HP-UNIX. But the requirement would be only Forms & Report Services (Business Intelligence). The reports will be web based and as well as it will be generated using rwrun command line utility. Therefore is it enough to have "Oracle application server Forms and Reports services" installation alone or we need to install the "Infrastructure" in addition to this?
Can any one help on this?

Hi,
You need to install infrastructure first to install the Forms & Reports. Actually, OID gets installed with infrastructure, and thus need to install it.
SSO will be on for the report server, thus when you use rwclient or rwrun you have to use the authid.

Soumyajit

Hi Team,

Please suggest me how to installed Oracle 10g Developer Suit on windows server 2008 64 bits.
Thanks in Advance

I don't know what it could be, but I have another question: why are you installing DevSuite on a server? DevSuite is for the developers and should be installed on a client, not a server. Maybe that is the problem.

Access Oracle 10g OLAP Analytic Worspace from BOE XI for Universes creating

Hi skilled!
Is there any environment to access Oracle 10g OLAP Analytic Worspace
from BOE XI (not from BOE XIR2) for Universes creating ?
Thank you.

Hello Walter,
Thanks for the response.
I'm using the following SAP GUI: 710 Final Release, Version 7100.2.7.1038, Build 971593, Patch-Level 7.
Trying to install the Desktop part of the integration kit results in the follwoing message: Unable to perform Desktop installation. The installation is unable to proceed with a desktop installation because Crystal Reports 2008 was not detected. To perform a Desktop installation, it must be installed.
Without having installed any integration kit on the client side, I can still see the data access driver for SAP Business Warehouse 3.x in the Universe Designer (when trying to define a new connection). After providing the respective parameters, however, a connection is not established successfully. When testing the connection it just tells me that the connection trial failed (SBO0001), without providing any further details.
What do you think, is the problem? The SAP GUI? Is it at all required for my purposes (generating OLAP universes in Designer from SAP BI) to install the integration kit on the client side? As far as I have read, it is?
Thanks, Konrad

Oracle 10g EM DB console Host Preferred Credentials for Windows

Hello:
I install Oracle 10g R2 on on windows machine (XP Professional SP2).
Everything is OK except I can't set Host Preferred Credentials.
I logged in Windows using Windows Domain account, connected EM DB console as sysdba.
I used domain user name to set Host Credentials and get the error:
Connection to xxxx as user Domain\user failed: IOException in sending Request :: Connection refused: connect
I created a loal user oracle, added it to ORA_DBA group, add it to "Act as part of the operating system" and "Log on as a batch job" under Local policies.
Then I set oracle as Host Credential, still get the same error.
Can any one tell me how should I set the Host Credentials for Oracle 10g on Windows?
Thanks for any help.

If it is the new DST that cause it, how can I solve it?
I just download Oracle 10g for test, and I don't have access to metalink. Is there any place else that I can get the Patches? or is there any other way to solve it?
Thanks again.

HS connection to MySQL fails for large table

Hello,
I have set up an HS to a MySql 3.51 dabatabe using an ODBC DNS. My Oracle box has version 10.2.0.1 running in Windows 2003 R2. MySQL version is 4.1.22 running on a different machine with the same OS.
I completed the connection through a database link, which works fine in SQLPLUS when selecting small MySQL Tables. However, I keep getting an out of memory error when selecting certain large table from the MySQL database. Previously, I had tested the DNS and ran the same SELECT in Access and it doesn't give any error. This is the error thrown by SQLPLUS:
SQL> select * from progressnotes@mysql_rmg where "encounterID" = 224720;
select * from progressnotes@mysql_rmg where "encounterID" = 224720

I have read the MySQL documentation and apparently there's a "Don't Cache Result (forward only cursors)" parameter in the ODBC DNS that needs to be checked in order to cache the results in the MySQL server side instead of the Driver side, but checking that parameter doesn't work for the HS connection. Instead, the SQLPLUS session throws the following message when selecting the same large table:
SQL> select * from progressnotes@mysql_rmg where "encounterID" = 224720;
select * from progressnotes@mysql_rmg where "encounterID" = 224720
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-02068: following severe error from MYSQL_RMG
ORA-28511: lost RPC connection to heterogeneous remote agent using
SID=(DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)(HOST=10.0.0.120)(PORT=1521))(CONNECT_DATA=(SID=MYSQL_RMG)))
Curiously enough, after checking the parameter, the Access connection through the DNS ODBS seems to improve!
Is there an aditional parameter that needs to be set up in the inithsodbc.ora perhaps? These are current HS paramters:
# HS init parameters
HS_FDS_CONNECT_INFO = MYSQL_RMG
HS_FDS_TRACE_LEVEL = ON
My SID_LIST_LISTENER entry is:
(SID_DESC =
(PROGRAM = HSODBC)
(SID_NAME = MYSQL_RMG)
(ORACLE_HOME = D:\oracle\product\10.2.0\db_1)
Finally, here is my TNSNAMES.ORA entry for the HS connection:
MYSQL_RMG =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 10.0.0.120)(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SID = MYSQL_RMG)
(HS = OK)
Your advice will be greatly appeciated,
Thanks,
Luis

First of all please be aware HSODBC V10 has been desupported and DG4ODBC should be used instead.
The root cause the problem you describe could be related to a timeout of the ODBC driver (especially while taking care of the comment: it happens only for larger tables):
(0) [MySQL][ODBC 3.51 Driver]MySQL server has gone away (SQL State: S1T00; SQL
(0) Code: 2006)
indicates the Driver or the DB abends the connection due to a timeout.
Check out the wait_timeout mysql variable on the server and increase it.

Exporting to PDF fails for a report

Hi,
One of my reports no longer exports to PDF. When run through our ERP system it looks as if it's exporting but the progress popup window quickly dissappears. When we go to the location where the exported file should be nothing is there.
I tried opening up the report in the Crystal 11 and exporting from there. I get the following two error messages:
Failed to export the report.
Not supported
This was working yesterday. The only thing I did was to add the u2lbar.dll to the bin folder and copy over the barcode font so that we could display barcodes on this report. However, even if I comment the line to do the barcode I still get the same problem.
Thanks,
Jon

The font you are using probably doesn't have embedding permissions.

Oracle 10g - Data Pump: Export / Import of Sequences ?

Hello,
I'm new to this forum and also to Oracle (Version 10g). Since I could not find an answer to my question, I open this post in hoping to get some help from the experienced users.
My question concerns the Data Pump Utility and what happens to sequences which were defined in the source database:
I have exported a schema with the following command:
"expdp <user>/<pass> DIRECTORY=DATA_PUMP_DIR DUMPFILE=dumpfile.dmp LOGFILE=logfile.log"
This worked fine and also the import seemed to work fine with the command:
"impdp <user>/<pass> DIRECTORY=DATA_PUMP_DIR DUMPFILE=dumpfile.dmp"
It loaded the exported objects directly into the schema of the target database.
BUT:
Something has happened to my sequences. :-(
When I want to use them, all sequences start again with value "1". Since I have already included data with higher values in my tables, I get into trouble with the PK of these tables because I used sequences sometimes as primary key.
My question go in direction to:
1. Did I something wrong with Data Pump Utility?
2. How is the correct way to export and import sequences that they keep their actual values?
3. When the behaviour described here is correct, how can I correct the values that start again from the last value that was used in the source database?
Thanks a lot in advance for any help concerning this topic!
Best regards
FireFighter
P.S.
It might be that my english sounds not perfect since it is not my native language. Sorry for that! ;-)
But I hope that someone can understand nevertheless. ;-)

My question go in direction to:
1. Did I something wrong with Data Pump Utility?I do not think so. But may be with the existing schema :-(
2. How is the correct way to export and import
sequences that they keep their actual values?If the Sequences exist in the target before the import, oracle does not drop and recreate it. So you need to ensure that the sequences do not already exist in the target or the existing ones are dropped before the import.
3. When the behaviour described here is correct, how
can I correct the values that start again from the
last value that was used in the source database?You can either refresh with the import after the above correction or drop and manually recreate the sequences to START WITH the NEXT VALUE of the source sequences.
The easier way is to generate a script from the source if you know how to do it
