Weired apex export application issue

Very weired problem.
My app works fine in apex3.2.
I exported it to apex 4.0 and there I face following issue without making any change to the apex 3.2 version of the app:
I am assigning some value to an application item in the login process.
When I sign into the workspace and loginto the app and try to display the application item on any page, it shows nothing. But there are some authorization based tabs, which display correctly as expected.
But then when I log out of the app and log back again(while I am still in that workspace), I see the value of the application item. But some tabs disappear.
Any clue?

I tried to debug a lot but ...
Let me narrow down my questions and start again:
USING APEX 4.0
I have custom authentication.
In the login process, code stucture is like this:
declare
begin
custom_login_prc_call();
:some_app_item:='some value';
wwv_flow_custom_auth_std.login();
end;
The problem is that I am not able to pass the value of application item "some_app_item" to another page. I tried to put some debug statements in the login process code. For example, tried to insert the value of this application item to a table and it worked. But when I tried to pass it some other page, I don't see the value of this item.
Is there any situation an application item gets cleared? I think not. Thats why its a global variable.
Any and all suggestions are welcome.

Oracle Apex export application getting access denied when trying to download

DB: 11.2.0.3
Apex: 4.2.2.00.11
Apex Listener: 2.0.3.221.10.13
WLS: 10.3.6.0
Chrome: Version 29.0.1547.76 m
and IE 10.0.9200.16660
I'm the admin of the workspace that has one application. Made a change to the application and went to export the application so I can source control it.
Followed the Export wizard while in the application, hit the Export/Import button and clicked Export. Changed the File Format to "Database", Export Supporting Object Definitions to "No" and left everything else as default. Clicked the Export Application button and get "Application 108 exported" success maessage. Navigate to the Manage Export Repository and I see the exported application labled "f108.sql and I click on it and I get "Access Denied".
Whats the trick? What am I missing?
If I change File Format to "Unix" or "DOS" the file automatically downloads.
Thx,
Russ

Hmm I wonder if it has something to do with:
bug #16760897
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/apex/application-express/apex-422-known-issues-1940409.html
The bug description mentions ORA-06502, but get_file has a when others exception handler that simply returns "Access Denied".
What do you folks think?

APEX Timesheet application

Hello,
I installed APEX timesheet application from http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/apex/application-express/packaged-apps-090453.html#TIME
It got installed fine, but seems to have lot of bugs.
1. "Add Row" does not work on the timesheet page
2. "Delete" for a row gives weired results.
3. Can't create any admin user and there-after 2 parts of the application can't be seen.
Has anyone faced similar issues, and if YES, is there a fixed version of this application?
regards, Yora

Hi all,
In response to my previous post, I would like to update that I have been able to generate my required region.
Now the final query is as follows:
DECLARE
v_query varchar2(10000);
v_count number;
BEGIN
select count(*) into v_count from tb_opti_emp_ts where emp_id=:P7_EMPLOYEE and proj_ref=:P7_PROJ_REF and rel_id=:P7_RELEASE_ID;
IF ((:P7_RELEASE_ID is not null) and (v_count>0)) THEN
v_query := 'SELECT b.act_code activities,apex_item.text (1, a.ts_wd1, 10, 10) monday,apex_item.text (2, a.ts_wd2, 10, 10) tuesday,apex_item.text (3, a.ts_wd3, 10, 10) wednesday,apex_item.text (4, a.ts_wd4, 10, 10) thursday,apex_item.text (5, a.ts_wd5, 10, 10) friday,apex_item.text (6, a.ts_wd6, 10, 10) saturday,apex_item.text (7, a.ts_wd7, 10, 10) sunday,apex_item.text (8, a.ts_remarks, 70, 128) remarks from tb_opti_emp_ts a, tb_opmi_proj_act_map b WHERE a.proj_ref = b.proj_ref
AND a.rel_id = b.rel_id
AND a.emp_id = '''||:P7_EMPLOYEE||'''
AND b.rel_id = '''||:P7_RELEASE_ID||'''
AND a.proj_ref = '''||:P7_PROJ_REF||''';';
ELSIF (:P7_RELEASE_ID is null) then
v_query := 'SELECT 1 FROM dual WHERE 1=0';
else
v_query:='select (select act_desc from tb_opmi_act_code a where a.act_code=b.act_code) as activities,apex_item.text(1,null) Monday,apex_item.text(2,null) Tuesday,apex_item.text(3,null) Wednesday,apex_item.text(4,null) Thursday,apex_item.text(5,null) Friday,apex_item.text(6,null) Saturday,apex_item.text(7,null) Sunday,apex_item.text(8,null) Remarks from tb_opmi_proj_act_map b where proj_ref='''||:P7_PROJ_REF||''' and rel_id='''||:P7_RELEASE_ID||''';';
END IF;
return(v_query);
END;
Now I have created a button which have dynamic action as its on click action. Now in the dynamic action I have to write the code for inserting/updating the data in the timesheet table.
I need help with it please its urgent..........

Export Application and Static Files

Using Apex 3.2, I use the Export Application utility to move apps from one Environment to another.
In one of the Apps I have a Static file which is only for that specific App, It doesn't seem the import the static file for me.
I have to load thru shared components again in the other the environment.
I'm I missing a step with regards to static files or do I really need to do both steps?
Thanks

I can't tell for sure, but - when I tried to include "static files" (such as images?) into my export script (APEXExport, right?), I couldn't find a way to do that. Therefore, speaking from my own experience, that stupid way you described is the only way I know.
It would be nice if someone knows better; at least two of us would benefit from it.

How can I do change File Character when I export application (4.2.1.00.08)

Hello,
Please, help me!
I need to change "File Character" when I export application with Apex 4.2.1.00.08 version, but this option, is not possible. The ComboBox already select with
"Unicode UTF-8]', but I need "ISO-8859-1 - Europa Ocidental", how can I do change it?
Thanks

Please register for a "real" user account rather than the anonymous user7266483.
You can not change it on the export...this is simply set to whatever is in effect in the DB.
However, it is totally unnecessary to change it on export. If the database into which you need to import the exported application is "ISO-8859-1 - Europa Ocidental", at the time you begin to import, it will default to "ISO-8859-1 - Europa Ocidental". You need to change this to the character set under which it was exported. In this case, it was "Unicode UTF-8".
It does not matter that you export and import in the same character set. It only matters that you correctly set the import to match how it was exported.

FND_LOBS stores information about all LOBs managed by the Generic File Manager (GFM).
Each row includes the file identifier, name, content-type, and actual data. Each row also
includes the dates the file was uploaded and will expire, the associated program name and
tag, and the language and Oracle characterset.
The file data, which is a binary LOB, is stored exactly as it is uploaded from a client browser,
which means that no translation work is required during a download to make it HTTP compliant.
Therefore uploads from non-browser sources will have to prepare the contents
appropriately (for instance, separating lines with CRLF).
The program_name and program_tag may be used by clients of the GFM for any purpose,
such as striping, partitioning, or purging the table if the program is de-installed.
They are otherwise strictly informative.
These columns and the expiration date are properly set when the
procedure FND_GFM.CONFIRM_UPLOAD is called. If not called, the column
expiration_date remains set, and will eventually be purged by the procedure
FND_GFM.PURGE_EXPIRED.
FND_DOCUMENTS_LONG_RAW stores images and OLE
Objects, such as Word Documents and Excel
spreadsheets, in the database. If the user elects
to link an OLE Object to the document, this table
stores the information necessary for Oracle Forms
to activate the OLE server, and it saves a
bit-mapped image of the OLE server's contents.
If the user does not elect to link an OLE Object,
the entire document will be stored in this table.
FND_DOCUMENTS_LONG_TEXT stores information about
long text documents.
FND_DOCUMENTS_SHORT_TEXT stores information about
short text documents.

SQL Injection threat with APEX developed applications

We are using a tool, HP WebInspect, to scan some of our APEX developed applications for web application security testing and assessment. We are getting some critical and high vulnerabilities identified (see below) and would like to know if someone else has encoutered these and to determine a solution, whether it be a setting/settings within APEX or is it more related to the application and the way it was developed.

You can help us by telling us your first name, putting it into your profile, and by selecting a friendlier handle.
The details you showed indicate no SQL injection possibilites whatsoever. The "Critical" examples also are unrelated to Application Express applications that you may have developed (application 4550 is the login application for the product itself and should rarely be used by end users in production environments).

Apex Custom Application Behaviour

I've got a Apex custom application that utilizes AJAX. In essence its a custom drop down list within a search bar.

FDM - Scripting for exporting application

Hi
Can you please advise if it is possible to write a script to automate the FDM export (Application export, this would be for the locations, users, maps etc...)
Regards
Edited by: user12990175 on 2010/07/05 11:59 PM

I have not seen any scripts be used to automate this process. Keep in mind that an application extract can only be loaded into a fresh FDM application, it cannot be used to merge metadata between two FDM applications. I don't really see much of a purpose to automate this process, it is something that normally should be done manually.

WORKSPACE export not exporting Applications?

When I export my workspace from the admin it doesn't export the applications.
It only exports the following:
-- Company, user group and user export
Any suggestions?

Kyle - Exporting a workspace exports the workspace definition, user groups, and user accounts. The Users Guide explains how to export applications but I'm sure you've done that before.

Use Transaction code /SAPSLL/CL_CP_CUS_EX to display the custom declaration in Customs management. Select the dcoument in change mode. In the menu path, there is an option for 'Cancel' or 'Request Cancellation'. Request cancellation option is used when the declaration has been sent out to authorities for permission and in the meatime, the user decided to cancel..
