Xcelsiues 2008, working with live data help!!!

Ok, so i have flynet designer for web services. All this is working correctly. i have setup a test query just to check everything is working so i just pulled out some customer info name, account number etc. I generated the webservice succesfully and i can browse to the website and enter a parameter and it returns results. So i know this part is working ok.
So now im in xcelsius 2008, i add a new web service connection and it connects fine, at this point you have to select the cells where you want the data to go in the little excel spreadsheet panel. but nothing ever appears!!!!??? i dont know what i am doing wrong. has anyone had experience working with live data?

In terms of timescale. I have till April to do this.
I said 2 months cos things always come up. So, in terms of your application have you already:
collected user requirements?
developed and tested an appropriate database structure (tables, datatypes, triggers, views, etc...)?
done any mock-up of some sort of the application pages and business process flows?
gotten approval of any of the above?
If you have all of this yet to complete - and you're new to databases, new to Oracle and new to HTML DB, and have more than a very simple application (10-15 pages) you may still be in over your head with this project.
I'm not trying to discourage you from using HTML DB at all. It's a great tool and you can do some very cool stuff with it. And it's reputation as an Access killer is well deserved. It's just that you may not want to take on a critical time-sensitive project as your first.
Also to consider - are you going to have anyone else helping out with it? If so, what strengths/weaknesses does that person bring to the project? Is it going to help you move faster? Or slow you down - because you're training and developing at the same time?

  • Help Required: Working with relational data

    Hi,
    I'm looking for some advice
    Scenario
    We have a customer who has an SE relational database with Apex for transaction processing. They require reporting functionality and are debating whether to buy BI SE One or BI EE; they will not buy the enteprise edition database though.
    Questions
    Here are my questions:
    1. In order to use answers and dashboards, does the relational data have to be in a dimensional format. Is this reccommended.
    2. We were debating on whether to create data marts for various business requirements. Is this standard procedure for relational data (Which is not too complex)
    3. If the data has to be in a dimensional format, is this best modelled using warehouse builder or the model layer of the repository using BI Administrator. (Baring in mind that the customer is an SME using a SE database)
    The main problem where having, been fairly new to warehouse building, is that we dont know what the best path is to take when working with relational data. Do we create dimensional models? What should we use? Is a relational structure suitable enough?
    Can anyone shed light on our problems
    Regards
    Kevin

    1. In order to use Answers and Dashboards you do not need to have a Data Warehouse. It can report out of both Transactional database as well as a data warehouse.
    2. It depends on what your business requirements are. BI EE/SE1 does not require you to have data marts. Data Marts would give performance gains, would help you in visualizing the transactional data from a business standpoint, is a big plus but not a mandate. If you want to go that route of creating Datamarts, you can easily do that using BI SE1 since that gives you warehouse builder which can be both used as a data modelling tool and a ETL tool.
    3. Warehouse Builder is a ETL tool. It helps in you visualizing/deploying data warehouses in databases. But BI EE Admin tool is more of a logical dimension modelling tool wherein the facts and dimensions do not exist physically but the tool uses them to do the querying/processing.
    Since you are just starting, what you can do is to use BI EE directly on top of the transactional system for the time being. But as a long term solution you can start working on your data marts and as soon as they are ready you can port the BI EE on top of them rather than the transactional system.
    Thanks,
    Venkat

  • My iPad Mini with retina display suddenly will not connect to the Internet. It shows full wifi bars, yet no web pages will load. My Internet is working with all other apple devices in my house. The iPad also no longer works with celluar data.

    My iPad Mini with retina display suddenly will not connect to the Internet. It shows full wifi bars, yet no web pages will load. My Internet is working with all other apple devices in my house. The iPad also no longer works with celluar data. I'm not sure what has happened. It was working fine a few hours ago. I have tried resetting it, ive restarted my browser etc. I tried to erase all data from my Ipad but I can't do that because it needs to sign into my Apple ID and use the Internet!

    Some things to try first:
    1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
    5.  Renew IP Address: (especially if you are drooping internet connection)
        •    Launch Settings app
        •    Tap on Wi-Fi
        •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
        •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

    Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.
    Some Wi-Fi losses may stem from a problematic interaction between Wi-Fi and cellular data connections. Numerous users have found that turning off Cellular Data in Settings gets their Wi-Fi working again.
    You may have many apps open which can possibly cause the slowdown and possibly the loss of wifi. In iOS 4-6 double tap your Home button & at the bottom of the screen you will see the icons of all open apps. Close those you are not using by pressing on an icon until all icons wiggle - then tap the minus sign. For iOS 7 users, there’s an easy way to see which apps are open in order to close them. By double-tapping the home button on your iPhone or iPad, the new multitasking feature in iOS 7 shows full page previews of all your open apps. Simply scroll horizontally to see all your apps, and close the apps with a simple flick towards the top of the screen.

  • Problem in working with Japanese data

    Hello,
    We have an application, which should work for both English and Japanese languages. Our application is working fine for English data but in case of Japanese, we are facing problems. In the application, there is a language setting, where the user can select either English or Japanese. This changes the language of the labels to English or Japanese. We are handling this thru' ResourceBundles. But the data that is entered can be independent of this. In English setting also, the data entered or diplayed could be Japanese. Now we are facing problems at vaious places -
    1. When we enter Japanese data and save it, it gets copied into the bean and if there is any error in the saving, the same data from bean comes back on the screen. This data doesn't appear properly in Japanese.
    2. When we try to retrieve the already saved data from database, it doesn't show poperly in Japanese.
    We are using our own 'toUnicode' function, which converts the data to Unicode before saving the data to database. Similarly, we have tried different encodings like SJIS / Shift_JIS / ISO-2022-JP at various places i.e. in 'Page' directive or in HTML Meta tag or various combinations of these two. Nothing is working reliably. Sometimes for some combination, data retained in the first case is correct but it can't be saved. Sometimes it works with Unicode, sometimes without Unicode. Some combination affects the Japanese labels as well. Otherwise the labels at least are displayed properly.
    The same code with just Shift_JIS setting in 'page' directive, worked well in IIS Server for both English and Japanese.
    What could be the problem in WebLogic? Does it matter if WL is installed on English or Japanese machine?
    Kindly answer ASAP, since the project is getting delayed.
    Thanking in anticipation...

  • Working with Cyrillic Data

    Hi, We have a requirement where I have to work with Cyrillic data i.e. Russian data. I have to parse data based on specific fields.  I tried using match function but looks like it is having problem dealing with Cyrillic Russian data.  When I try to find an english word in a string then it works finebut when I try to find an Cyrillic character i.e. ул. or г. then I match function would not find this expression in the CYrillic string.
    i.e. match_pattern('Арбат ул.','Арбат ул\.') gives me 0
    Any idea how I can use BODS on function on Cyrillic data.
    Thanks,

    Should have not used escape character for dot. placing just dot works finein decode.

  • Tools required to install to work with Oracle Data warehouse

    Could anyone please guide me...as I am quite new to Oracle...
    till now I was working on Data warehousing using Microsoft tools i.e. (SSIS, SSRS, SSAS, SQL Server)
    So Please tell me which are the tools required to install to work with Oracle Data warehouse
    I came to know about OWB and OBIEE, but not sure what exactly these are ?

    In order to create and develop a webcenter portal application, you only need to install JDeveloper and download the WeBCenter extensions. That's true.
    But this install does not include the WebCenter services like dicussions, document services, analytics,... If you want to use these and integrate them in your portal, then you would need to install the suite as described on my blog.

    Since En'rage does so many things the conflicting reports probably have to do with whether the program is being used just for mail, just for the calendar, or for both. For what its worth, I'm not happy with the 2011 version's performance in Lion. I've gone back to Mail and began using BusyCal

  • Working with complex data types in web services ...

    Hi All,
    I have created a webservice and created an interface for that in ADF. Now as my web service returns a complex data type, i followed the steps given in this article "http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/jdev/howtos/1013/wsadf/adfcomplexwstypes.html" and it works fine, my results also get displayed. But only issue is i get a warning "JBO-25009: Cannot create an object of type:java.util.calendar with value:2008-09-23T23:51:30.000+05:30" and if i replace all the java.util.Date with oracle.jbo.domain.Date then i get a warning "JBO-25009: Cannot create an object of type:oracle.jbo.domain.Date with value:2008-09-23T23:51:30.000+05:30". Now i am unable to understand this although i believe it is a data type mapping issue, but not sure how to rectify it.
    Anybody knows the wayout?
    Regards
    Lokesh

    Andre,
    Thanks for youe response. I also tried makeing data type as string in place of date in data control.xml and it worked fine. So it confirms that i am facing with exactly similar issue as yours.
    I tried solution 2 mentioned in Frank's mail but its not helping[in fact i am already using web proxy as i am delaing with complex data types]. I created a web proxy and in java bean i placed break points to check the control flow[in order to check the root cause] but control never reaches the java bean!! I am not sure about the cause for it...control should pass through java bean isn't it??
    I am quite new to SOA...so can somebody just elaborate on how to rectify this using web proxy. I have been using this rl "http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/jdev/howtos/1013/wsadf/adfcomplexwstypes.html" to work with web proxies" to work with proxies.

  • InDesign XMP Not Working with Live Caption

    I have images in InDesign CS5 (Mac OS X 10.6..), and although they have XMP data (Set from Bridge), when I set with Live Caption, my caption always says "<No data from link>". I've set up captions in Objects > Captions... > Caption Setup - metadata to "Description" and the XMP data doesn't get put into the caption. I can see the XMP information in Links > Image >  XMP File Info... "Description". That's Fine. I've tried other user-defined fields, "Title, Keywords"  and none work in Live Caption. I've also been updating the images after setting the XMP data in Bridge. I've also just deleted the images and re-placed them. Still can't get live caption to work.
    I also saw a related thread where a user set file XMP via photoshop (CS5), which I also tried. When I do that, InDesign CS5 doesn't see the XMP data (via Links > XMP File Info). I can see it if set via Bridge, but can't make Live Caption work. If I set XMP via Photoshop, I can't see XMP data, and naturally can't set Live Caption.
    I could have done my project 5 times manually by now - but the fact this isn't working has been driving me crazy. Wondered if anyone has seen this or, hopefully, got it to work. And am I doing something wrong?
    Thanks,
    Matt

    I think this is a bug - probably in Photoshop (though the various engineering teams may disagree on this ).
    Here's what I did:
    Opened a TIFF image in Photoshop CS5, and confirmed that it had "Description" metadata.
    Placed it in InDesign CS5 and created a live caption which DID work.
    Saved the image as a PNG using "Save for Web and Devices" in Photoshop CS5 with metadata set to "All".
    Placed that PNG in InDesign CS5, and found that a live caption did NOT work
    Examined the PNG image in Bridge CS5, and found that the description WAS shown
    Opened the PNG image in Photoshop CS5, and found that the description field was empty (in fact all fields were).
    Looked at the "Raw Data" section in the File Info dialog box in Photoshop, and found that it was essentially empty.
    Opened the PNG in a hex editor, and found that the missing metadata WERE there, but somehow must be formatted/structured in a slightly incorrect way which somehow prevents Photoshop and InDesign from properly parsing the XML, but not so far afield as to prevent Bridge from doing so.
    I would suggest filing a bug report against Photoshop CS5 since it cannot read the metadata that one of its own components wrote into the file.
