PHP and Apex

I like PHP and I like Apex. Is there any chance to see an interaction between the two? I know that it
is possible to link PHP with the Apache server which runs Apex but I am asking for the field addressing
and exchanging the variables between PHP code and PL/SQL code. That would really turn Apex into a
killer app.
Mladen Gogala

Chris, I was thinking about addressing the Apex form fields through PHP. The application in question has to upload some files to Oracle database. The problem is that I need to fetch it first from another machine. That can be easily done with PHP and I would like to be able to address the form fields in Apex from PHP. As for another book, yes, I would like to write one. I've already been putting some ideas on the paper but it is still at the very beginning.

A question about error with jasperserver for pdf and Apex

I have created a pdf report on jasperserver and I can call it from apex via a url and it displays fine. The url is this format {http://server:port/jasperserver/flow.html?_flowId=viewReportFlow&reportUnit=/reports/Apex/deptemp&output=pdf&deptNo=#DEPTNO#&j_username=un&j_password=pw}
However, I am trying to follow a stored procedure executed from Apex so it would not expose the username/pwd in the url like above.
If I am reading the apache error log correctly it is erroring in this piece of the code below where it executes {Dbms_Lob.writeAppend}
loop
begin
-- read the next chunk of binary data
Utl_Http.read_raw(vResponse, vData);
-- append it to our blob for the pdf file
Dbms_Lob.writeAppend
( lob_loc => vBlobRef
, amount => Utl_Raw.length(vData)
, buffer => vData
exception when utl_http.end_of_body then
exit; -- exit loop
end;
end loop;
Utl_Http.end_response(vResponse);}
The error log says this; HTTP-500 ORA-14453: attempt to use a LOB of a temporary table, whose data has alreadybeen purged\n
What is this error telling me and how can I correct it?
The stored procedure I am following is below but replaced the vReportURL with my url like above that works.
Thank you,
Mark

I am new to working with working with jasperserver to apex interfacing, and also using utl_http with binary data.

Don;t know what I did wrong, but I could not create an 'on-demand' process to call my procedure. I did not understand what it means when it says 'To create an on-demand page process, at least one application level process must be created with the type 'ON-DEMAND'.
so I had to use a blank page with a call to my procedure in the onload - before header process and that seems to work ok.

Include PHP and/or JAVA code in any BC site.

I am thinking about including some PHP and/or JAVA code into my BC site and I was wondering if I am allowed to do this. Just Curious. Thanks.

That's a shame, because I was thinking about implementing a business search api for my real estate website that was created using business catalyst that allows the collection of all real estate agents in Australia by searching and collecting their information from the Yellow Pages and White Pages directories, and include these information in a database that allows users to search for the real estate agent they want and comment on that agent. This can only be done by integrating some PHP or JAVA code into my BC website.
So that means that the only way that I can do this is to create a web app that allows users to search for the real estate agent they want to see and comment on that agent, just by entering real estate agents' information into the web app's database and using various BC modules and plugins. Are there other easier ways to do this? Thanks.

PHP and MySQL Connection problem

I am trying to make a PHP MySQL on a remote server connection in Dreamwesaver CS3.
When I enter the information (host, user, password, etc.) and hit TEST, I get the following error message.
"Access Denied. The file may not exist, or there could be a permission problem. Make sure you have proper authorization on the server and the server is properly configured."
I know the user, password, etc. work, as I can access the MySQL database with other software.
I checked with my host and they say there are no permission problems on their end.
I have checked the settings on the Test Server page in Site Setup and everything looks correct and works there.
I have not seen this particular problem described in other forum postings (although there are a LOT of postings on this topic!).
Any help would be appreciated.

I thought my testing server was the remote server and is always on as far as I know. I don't know how to turn it on or off.
Is there some other testing server that I should be aware of?

I know you are using remote, but is your testing server on? if not turn that on and see if that does it. it just happened to me working on remote server and could not get mysql conn to work, until I turn on my testing (developer server), then I was able to connect to mysql and the tables that I created in phpmyadmin remotly was downloaded.

How do I add an already built Shopping Cart (PHP and MYSQL) application to a page in a Muse site?

How do I add an already built Shopping Cart (PHP and MYSQL) (Cartweaver 4) application to a page in a Muse site? Do I have to export the Muse site as Html to dreamweaver and them use the extension to bring the shooping cart in or can I do it directly in Muse?
Message was edited by: mgv2048

We have experimented with doing this with some good success. We have been working on adding Cartweaver to a Facebook page by essentially adding a Cartweaver store to Facebook in an iframe. The "store" would be pages with just your basic product display, cart, and checkout functionality, with none of the "window dressing" - just use CSS to match the color and general look of the design it's being added to.
The one problem with this for Facebook is when it comes time to check out toy have to leave Facebook and go to your server where an SSL is in place. Fortunately in this situation this would not be the case, you can have an SSL installed to the root of your site and you'll be okay.
This is an interesting project. Give this a try and let me know how it goes and if you run into any snags, please make a post on the Cartweaver forums: http://forums.cartweaver.com - I'm really confident that this can work, and not only work, but work well.
Looking forward to hearing how this goes, and being of what help we can.

Getting stylesheets to work in header.php and files associated with it

Let's say I created a header.php file in my includes folder. And I include it in my index.php file in the site root directory.
Then in the header.php file, I have a link to the style sheet.
The issue I've always found is that you can't get the header.php file to apply the stylesheet.
I can get it to work using global links, however I don't want to do that as I'll have to undo them before I upload the site. (And I forget....)
So anyways, I came up with this code today in an attempt to overcome this. Here is my header file so far:
"; } else echo ""; ?>
So here is what it is doing:
1. It is creating a variable called $directory which is equal to the current directory.
2. Then it is creating another variable called $currentFolder which is equal to whether or not the variable $directory contains the word "includes".
3. Then it says if $currentFolder is NOT false then it has the location of the stylesheet in relation to the header.php file.
4. Else - if it IS false then the stylesheet is located in a location in relation to files in my root directory.
This works perfectly fine....in Live view. Both the header.php and index.php will format the header in live view. Neither though will format it in Design view. Which sucks cause I was pretty happy that I came up with this code on my own.
The reason it isn't working in Design View - I realize now - is because Dreamweaver won't process that script in Design View.
Does anyone know of a way to get this script to run in Design View? Or maybe some suggestions on editing this code to get it to work in Design View?
Thanks!

>The issue I've always found is that you can't get the header.php file to apply the stylesheet.
Right. That's because, and it seems you understand this already, the css file relative location is different from the point of view of the header file, and the parent file. Since the header file is included in the parent at the server, the client then sees the css file in the wrong location.
The solution is to use Design time style sheets. This will apply the css to the page only in design time - it won't actually insert the css file into the code. So, insert the css reference into the header file from the point of view of the parent - index.html. Then add a design time style sheet. That should work.

How to configure Oracle SSO for forms and apex

Hi All,
I am trying to configure oracle SSO for forms and apex using third party external authentication. Please help me how to configure. I a have tried all possible things
from web but I am not able to do it. Is there any doc or links are much appreciated.
Info: Some reason my oiddas web link is not working it used to work fine before and also the from /pls/orasso/ link I am not able to login may be because of my oiddas issue
Thanks

Communication between TNS_Listener and Apex Listener

Dear all,
I how does the communication between TNS Listener, Apex Listener, and Apex? For some reason I got the following error from Apex listener:
Caused by: oracle.dbtools.rt.web.WebException: Unable to start the Universal Connection Pool: oracle.ucp.UniversalConnectionPoolException: Cannot get Connection from Datasource
Caused by: oracle.net.ns.NetException: Listener refused the connection with the following error:
ORA-12505, TNS:listener does not currently know of SID given in connect descriptorI truncated some of the Java object messages.
This occurred when I tried to connect to Apex. Then I can fix this by going to:
http://localhost:8080/apex/listenerConfigurethen, everything worked fine.
My listener.ora file:
LISTENER =
(DESCRIPTION_LIST =
    (DESCRIPTION =
      (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = IPC)(KEY = EXTPROC1521))
    (DESCRIPTION =
      (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = firefly.snowdrop.com)(PORT = 1521))
ADR_BASE_LISTENER = /usr/local/oracle
ADR_BASE_ORACLE_LISTENER = /usr/local/oraclemy tnsnames.ora file
INARA =
(DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = firefly.snowdrop.com)(PORT = 1521))
    (CONNECT_DATA =
      (SERVER = DEDICATED)
      (SERVICE_NAME = inara.snowdrop.com)
)where inara is the instance name and firefly is the hostname.
Does the order of whether starting TNS Listener first or starting Apex Listener first matter?
Best regards,
Val

Hm, I'm not able to reproduce the error. There was one time when I started APEX Listener got:
java.net.BindException: Address already in use: 8080=com.sun.grizzly.http.SelectorThreadHandler@46d999aand when I did the netstat -a got:

There was one time netstat -a showed me this (this happened after I stopped Apex Listener, stopped TNS Listener, shutdown the database, started database, started TNS Listener, and started Apex Listener):

Now I only got

All this does is produce a list of all the fields in the database in a long list so we can choose which fields to print.
As this list is now growing as we have added a lot more fields to the database ... is there anyway we could split it into say 3 columns?
Ideally the first column would be all the personal details - i.e. down to DPA Signed - Second column would be the other badges and the third column different depending on the section.
On the data input page we have different badges depending on section. Using the following code:
if ($action=='add' || ($action=='edit' && (UserRead($yp['section']) || UserAdmin()))) {
$yp_section_query = mysql_query("SELECT name FROM csg_section WHERE section=".tc($yp['section'])) or die("<b>MySql Error:</b>".mysql_error());
$yp_name = mysql_fetch_assoc($yp_section_query);
$yp_name = $yp_name['name'];
$yp_section = (strstr($yp_name,"Scout")) ? 1 : (strstr($yp_name,"Cub") ? 2 : 3) //If has word 'scout' -> 1. Else If has word 'cub' -> 2 Else 3 (beaver)
?>
<form action="yp2.php" method="post">
<input type="hidden" name="yp" value="<?php echo $yp['yp_id']; ?>">
<input type="hidden" name="section" value="<?php echo $yp['section']; ?>">
could we use this on the print page to show different badge list depending on section in the third column??
Many Thanks,
Steve

I am not sure how it looks familiar ... are you in Scouting too?
So can i just create columns and put the different bits in each column?
How can I sort by database - sorry I am a bit of a novice when it comes to php and coding, etc.
Also was it able to filter depending on section?
Many Thanks,
Steve

Image cache not working with Firefox and apex

Hi,
I'd like to cache all my images to save page rendering time and bandwidth because my images are all static and never change.
I use the John Scott's caching technique Link: [http://jes.blogs.shellprompt.net/2007/05/18/apex-delivering-pages-in-3-seconds-or-less/], in a few words this technique consists of adding a header line "Expires: date in the future" in the http response.
It works very well in IE, the images are cached and the same image can be accessed several times (within the same session or in different sessions) without issuing an http request to the server each time.
with Firefox it does not work, the same image is asked again and again to the server (i'm using FF 3.5 and APEX 3.2).
- Is it a date format problem? no, because when i type about:cache in FF, i can find my image in the cache with an expire date in the future.
The weird thing here is that the counter is incremented each time u request the image, so FF knows it is in the cache and even if the expire date is in the future, FF asks it again to the server.
- Is it a FF bug? If u read the http specs or if u google a little, u can come to the conclusion that FF does not follow the standards,
but... images.google.com for example manages to get its images cached with FF.
They use an http response header "cache-control: public, max-age=604800".
I tried the same and all kinds of combinations but without success.
When i compare my image with the one from google in the FF cache, they both have the same attributes.
- It's not an apex issue neither because it works with IE, most probably an incompatibility between apex and FF?
Maybe the use of cookie? or the http request (not the response) containing "cache-control: max-age=0"?
I've found so far 2 half solutions:
1) use ETag and modified date, see the Tyler Muth's note Link: [http://tylermuth.wordpress.com/2008/02/04/image-caching-in-plsql-applications/].
with this technique FF continues to send request each time but the answer is shorter because it's just a "304 not modified" instead of "200 OK" (200 response is bigger as it contains the image).
it's better than nothing but you still have 1 request + 1 response for nothing.
Another problem is that you need SYS access to implement this, which is not possible on an hosted server. (note that for images from the file system it is already foreseen by apex 3.1, Tyler's note is for images from the db)
2) if you preload the image (using myimage=new Image();myimage.src='...';), then there is max 1 request per browser session.
There are 2 minor issues here:
- no caching across sessions
- if u don't want to preload all the images (example a page with lots of thumbnails, when user clicks it show a bigger image, in that case the thumbnails can be preloaded but overkill for the big images), then you need to load the image, wait until the image has loaded before displaying it, it does not slow down the execution, but requires some extra JS.
I'm not asking anyone to investigate it, i can live with the 2 workarounds,
but just in case someone encountered the same problem and already fixed it.
Let me know if u managed to use the John Scott's technique with Firefox. (U can use Firebug to see the http traffic)
Thx
Tim

Document Root Library/WebServer/Documents
so my path is: Library/WebServer/Documents/dwwdSite
httpd.conf file is modified to add index.php and have it listed first.
<IfModule dir_module>
DirectoryIndex index.php index.html
<IfModule>
Troubleshooting:
I was using Netbeans IDE and when I ran index.php it opened in the browser.
When I launched 'any' of my index.php files from Netbeans IDE, they opened correctly in the brower
I am now using DreamweaverCC and when I run the index.php Error Message ' Unable to Connect'.
For the last 2 days I have been working on this and I am completely stuck.
This morning I thought of another way to test the 'unable to connect' error.
I decided to copy this same file into Netbeans IDE and I NOW get the same Error Message ' Unable to Connect'
when running index.php from Netbeans.
Somehow, my settings are not correctly configured anymore.
Here are my screenshots from Dreamweaver > manage sites.
I believe that this is a rather simple fix that I am somehow not seeing.
Maybe some can spot some mistake.
I appreciate your help and explanation.

Oracle Text and APEX

Hello
Tried the Oracle White Paper - Oracle Text Web Applications
Created the table and populated with relevant url links
create table htmldb_documentation(
id number,
doc_title varchar2(4000),
doc_url varchar2(4000))
then created the index
create index htmldb_doc_ctxidx on htmldb_documentation(doc_url)
indextype is ctxsys.context
parameters ('datastore CTXSYS.URL_DATASTORE')
Then ran my SQL for the report in Toad and APEX SQL Workshop>SQL Commands before creating an APEX Region based on a SQL Report
select score(1) relevance, doc_title, doc_url
from htmldb_documentation
where CONTAINS (doc_url, :P1_SEARCH, 1) > 0
order by 1 desc
After running the APEX Report I get error
report error:
ORA-29902: error in executing ODCIIndexStart() routine
ORA-20000: Oracle Text error:
DRG-50901: text query parser syntax error on line 1, column 1
I also ran these grant commands after I received this error
grant ctxapp to demo;
grant execute on ctx_cls to demo;
grant execute on ctx_ddl to demo;
grant execute on ctx_doc to demo;
grant execute on ctx_output to demo;
grant execute on ctx_query to demo;
grant execute on ctx_report to demo;
grant execute on ctx_thes to demo;
grant execute on ctx_ulexer to demo;
Any ideas ?? I'm running APEX 3.1.0.00.32 on Oracle 10.2.0.1 on WindowsXP
If I replace the bind variable :P1_SEARCH, with a literal value the error disappears

Couple of things to check:
1) do you have an item called P1_SEARCH in your application?
2) If so, make sure that it has a value; otherwise, Oracle Text gets confused and will throw that error.
You may want to consider using a PL/SQL Function Returning SQL Query that will only append the CONTAINS clause if P1_SEARCH has some value.
Thanks,

PHP and SSIs not working in Lion

So I had PHP and HTML SSIs working fine under SL, but now they don't seem to be working since upgrading to Lion. I have checked the httpd.conf file and all the correct lines are still uncommented and 'Includes' is still listed as an Option Directive in both the httpd.conf file and <USER>.conf file. Has anybody else had this problem since upgrading to Lion and how can I fix it?

Mine is similar for something different. After uncommenting php in httpd.conf file the server refuses to boot. When I typed php -v at the command line I got this:
dyld: Library not loaded: @loader_path/../lib/libssl.dylib
Referenced from: /usr/lib/libpq.5.dylib
Reason: Incompatible library version: libpq.5.dylib requires version 1.0.0 or later, but libssl.0.9.8.dylib provides version 0.9.8
That's been frustratingly hard to fix so far (at least for me). I was just getting started helping a friend with his Joomla site and promised to duplicate the difficulty and debug it on my Mac Air. But, I installed Mountain Lion, and then more recently the latest upgrade, and everything went south as they say. I need to see what answer you get. It may apply to my problem as well.

Dreamweaver CS5.5 Mobile Apps with PHP and MYSQL?

Hello,
I don't have Dreamweaver CS5.5 yet and I've been trying to search for information on this but I couldn't find any. I've been learning PHP and been developing with MYSQL with Dreamweaver CS5 but I wanted to know if I can use the same tags and everything if I would to build a Mobile App using the new Dreamweaver CS5.5 (http://tv.adobe.com/watch/cs-55-web-premium-feature-tour-/dreamweaver-cs-55-jquery-mobile- pages/). I overlooked at the video and it seems pretty easy building an app. So is PHP and MYSQL easily integratable? Are there any examples that I might be able to check out?
Thanks!

No. PHP is a server-side scripting language that requires a server (or server-like environment) to run.
An iPhone (or Android) application does not allow for a "built-in" server (which is resource intensive and has scary security implications). You just can't build an application with PHP/MySQL for a mobile device. Instead you can build a web service that your HTML/JavaScript mobile application can then communicate with. This is the only supported way you can use PHP/MySQL in a mobile app. Again: the PHP/MySQL should reside on a server and your HTML/JS mobile app can then communicate with that web service. That's what instapaper and other applications do.
Frankly, just make a web application that's mobile device friendly and you'll:
1) Avoid all the messiness of the app stores
2) Have greater control over what your web app can do (don't have to tow the Apple/Google line)
3) Have a web app that can work across mulitple mobile devices as well as standard web browsers (i.e. more audience = more $).
4) Future proof your application (pushing updates to your server and everyone using your web app is updated)
Otherwise, read-up on Adobe AIR and what it supports and remember, the best apps are written natively for the platform (i.e. want to write an app for an iPhone? Learn Objective-C and use xCode on a Mac. Want to write an app for Motorola Xoom? Learn the Android SDK and use inteliJ).
