1. Is it possible to return the result from a select into an email message using UTL_MAIL ?
2. Where can I find some 10G UTL_MAIL code examples ?
Thank you.

10G UTL_MAIL.SEND and message bigger than a LONG variable ?

Hi,
Is it possible to send out a message containing more that 32767 characters (LONG) using 10G UTL_MAIL.SEND. I have to send a big HTML report (inline).
Thank's

Hi
its true we cannot use UTL_MAIL package for sending mails with Attachments as it can be used only for attachments of size less than 32KB. For higher sizes i referred Metalink an found the below info regarding UTL_SMTP.
This is the doc Id
Doc ID:      Note:357385.1
Doc ID:      Note:414062.1
Doc ID:      Note:334734.1
Doc ID:      Note:302943.1
Hope this docs helps u in your findings.
however, i have dropped my plans to send mail with attachments as mailbox has size limits and my files can be very big. SO, i would instead store the file in to a customr notified location and send him a mail about the presence of the file. I know this is not the right approach but i cudnt find a better approach than this. If any one can fin a better solution plz post it here.

AWM 10g - error message

I am having fun getting started with AWM.
I cannot login into an oracle 10g database with AWM 10g. I get this error message:
java.sql.SQLException: t2cCreateState

What does this mean?
Thanks,

What are you writing in connection information? Try using full details like hostname:port:sid and then try.
Also ensure that the correct ORACLE_HOME is set in the PATH variable.

10G UTL_MAIL question

I've followed this:
http://www.oracle-base.com/articles/10g/PlsqlEnhancements10g.php#UTL_MAIL
Question is:
Is it possible that I can use 'to_recipient_variable' instead of hard coded values ([email protected], [email protected], etc.) in Recipient because I want to use this feature in my search form that I've created using 10G-forms builder.
fyi:
I've 'email_field' in the 10G DB which I will search through 10G-based form and after getting the result I want to send emails to everybody who got the hit.
Thanks.
Gaurav

This is a database question better suited for the database forum. But having said that...
You can create a stored prcedure in the database, and pass the values to it that you want the procedure to use. You don't need to hardcode the values.

Reg.SMTP Error while using UTL_MAIL in Oracle 10g

Hi,
I am getting the following SMTP error while trying to use the UTL.MAIL package of Oracle 10g. The query is as follows.
begin
utl_mail.send(
sender => 'NAVEEN',
recipients => '[email protected]',
subject => 'Testing utl_mail',
message => 'The receipt of this email means'|| ' that UTL_MAIL works'
end;
UTL_MAIL package is installesd and the port 25 is configured and firewall is changed.
The same block was working fine before 5 days and now is giving the error as
ORA-29279: SMTP permanent error: 501 badly formatted MAIL FROM user - no "<"

Can you back that statement about an Oracle UTL_SMTP bug up with an actual bug number??
From what you have posted, this is not a bug!! but expected and documented (RFC'ed) SMTP server behaviour.
My proof:
/home/billy> telnet mail 25

As you can clearly see, the SMTP server expects a DOMAIN name as part of the MAIL FROM address. It also does not accept the alternative format suggested.
Yes, not all SMTP servers are equal and some support additional formatting.
But to imply that because the SMTP server does not accept your address formatted as string NAVEEN, it is a UTL_SMTP problem, sounds like a smelly one to me.

Error while sending a mail using UTP_MAIL package in Oracle 10g

Hi,
We are using UTP_MAIL package to send a mail from Oracle 10g.We have follwed the following steps ...
SQL> connect sys/password as sysdba
Connected.
SQL> @$ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin/utlmail.sql
Package created.
Synonym created.
SQL> @$ORACLE_HOME /rdbms/admin/prvtmail.plb
Package body created.
SQL > alter system set smtp_out_server = '<mail_server_ip:25>' scope =spfile;
System altered..
Now we try the code
begin
utl_mail.send(
sender => 'sender's mail',
recipients => 'receiver mail',
CC => 'optional',
subject => 'Testing utl_mail',
message => 'Test Mail'
end;
But we get the following error...
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-29278: SMTP transient error: 421 Service not available

We also tried connecting to the mail server through telnet .But it is not getting connected..
Please help us to solve the issue.

From your own posting you may have the clue, if you try to access your mail server through telnet and it is not successful, it means the service is down or there are networking issues.
On pre 10gR2 versions there was a bug 4083461.8. It could affect you if you are on 10gR1
"Bug 4083461 - UTL_SMTP.OPEN_CONNECTION in shared server fails with ORA-29278 Doc ID: Note:4083461.8"
This was fixed on 10gR2 base and on 9.2.0.8.0

10g Refresh Snapshot log question

Hi,
I need to run complete refresh on a materialized view log.
BEGIN
DBMS_SNAPSHOT.REFRESH(
LIST => 'XYZ_DETAIL'
,METHOD => 'C'
,PUSH_DEFERRED_RPC => TRUE
,REFRESH_AFTER_ERRORS => FALSE
,PURGE_OPTION => 1
,PARALLELISM => 0
,ATOMIC_REFRESH => TRUE
,NESTED => FALSE);
END;
I would like to Refresh it with PARALLELISM => 8 , and after the rebuild will finish
i want to set it back to serial (e.g: PARALLELISM => 0).
Is there an ALTER command that i can use ?
Please explain how to do that.
Thanks.

For the specific 10g case of
BEGIN
DBMS_SNAPSHOT.REFRESH(
LIST => 'XYZ_DETAIL'
,METHOD => 'C'
,PUSH_DEFERRED_RPC => TRUE
,REFRESH_AFTER_ERRORS => FALSE
,PURGE_OPTION => 1
,PARALLELISM => 0
,ATOMIC_REFRESH => TRUE
,NESTED => FALSE);
END;
and using PARALLELISM of 8 for a specific refresh
can you tell us what are the differences in Materialized Views , say between
10gR1 and 10gR2 if you can't tell us the differences between 8i and 10g ?

Getting ORA-06508 when running 6i form in 10g

hi,
I am upgrading my forms from 6i to 10g. I have created the following directory structure on my system.

i have edited the registery entry for

for forms10g
Forms_PATH -- c:\10g_upgrade\<module_name>\<lib>
I have two template forms:
1. TMXSTAND.FMB
2. PPSSTAND.FMB inherits TMXSTAND.FMB
when i run the FPPS003.FMB then it gives this error.
ON-ERROR raised an unhandled exception ORA-06508.
Please suggest where is the problem.
Thanks.

I have given the proper path of the library folder in Forms_Path. Still I am getting this error...
Is this error because of having both the versions of forms (6i and 10g)?

UTL_MAIL: Send_Attach_Raw / Attachement-Size?

Just two simple question :-)
I want to use the UTL_Mail Package from 10g to send emails with attachements.
Question 1: Can I attach more than one attachment or must I "zip" the files to one file before I can use the package?
Question 2: What is the maximum size for an attachement?
The input-parameter for the attachement in the Send_Attach_Row Procedure is of datatype RAW.
Does this mean an attachement can not be > 32K ???
If not, how can I send attachements > 32K ???
Regards
Udo

I've not looked at the 10g UTL_MAIL package yet, but I use the UTL_SMTP package provided with 9i (probably also available in 10g). On OTN ther's a demo mail package available which you can alter after studying it. I've added/modified a procedure to that package:
/* Write a binary attachment (BLOB) */
PROCEDURE ATTACH_BASE64
(P_CONN      IN OUT NOCOPY UTL_SMTP.connection
,P_DATA      IN BLOB
,P_MIME_TYPE IN VARCHAR2 := 'application/octet'
,P_INLINE    IN BOOLEAN := TRUE
,P_FILENAME IN VARCHAR2 := NULL
,P_LAST      IN BOOLEAN := FALSE
IS
   i            PLS_INTEGER;
   len          PLS_INTEGER;
BEGIN
   BEGIN_ATTACHMENT(p_conn, p_mime_type, p_inline, p_filename, 'base64');
   -- Split the Base64-encoded attachment into multiple lines
   i   := 1;
   len := DBMS_LOB.getLength(p_data);
   WHILE (i < len) LOOP
      IF(i + MAX_BASE64_LINE_WIDTH < len)THEN
         UTL_SMTP.Write_Raw_Data (p_conn
                                , UTL_ENCODE.Base64_Encode(
                                        DBMS_LOB.Substr(p_data, MAX_BASE64_LINE_WIDTH, i)
      ELSE
         UTL_SMTP.Write_Raw_Data (p_conn
                                , UTL_ENCODE.Base64_Encode(
                                        DBMS_LOB.Substr(p_data, (len - i), i)
      END IF;
      UTL_SMTP.Write_Data(p_conn, UTL_TCP.CRLF);
      i := i + MAX_BASE64_LINE_WIDTH;
   END LOOP;
   END_ATTACHMENT(p_conn, p_last);
END;As you can see you will need the demo mail package. You can call this procedure to add several binary attachments with no limit. And I'm sure you somehow can put this in use with the new UTL_MAIL package.
Hope this helps,
Michiel

Hey buddy,
I was working on a similar issue today.
1. Set the SMT_OUT_SERVER in init.ora and shutdown the server and started
using this init.ora
2. Checked by logging as sys whether utl_mail package is valid
3 From the sys account I tried sending the email
     BEGIN
     utl_mail.send('[email protected]', '[email protected]', NULL,      NULL, NULL);
     END ;
4 If step 3 works ur set up is good and then you need to have the privilege for
the user account where you are running this or grant it to public
grant execure on utl_mail to public

Send mail alert

Hi All, does anyone know how to send mail alert from windows box when oracle is down ?
I have oracle 10.2.0.4 running on windows 2000 server and wanted to wrote a script in windows to detect if oracle is down, it will send mail alert to my mailbox.
Is there any command line interface to call the send mail function in windows ?
Pls advice how i can do this.
Thanks.

In order to send email within 10g you must install and set up the UTL_MAIL package.
UTL_MAIL isn't installed when the database is installed because the SMTP_OUT_SERVER parameter must be configured. Listing 1 shows how to install UTL_MAIL and the results from the script. You must connect to the database as user SYS and run the two scripts identified in the listing.
Listing 1. Installation of UTL_MAIL
SQL> connect sys/password as sysdba
Connected.
SQL> @$ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin/utlmail.sql
Package created.
Synonym created.
SQL> @$ORACLE_HOME /rdbms/admin/prvtmail.plb
Package body created.
No errors. Next, the SMTP_OUT_SERVER parameter must be configured. You must connect to SYS and then use the alter system command to configure SMTP_OUT_SERVER parameter as shown here:
SQL> alter system set smtp_out_server = '<ip-address:port' scope=Both;
System altered.That's it! The installation and setup for UTL_MAIL is complete. The UTL_MAIL package only has one procedure, called Send, for sending email (see Listing 2 for the syntax for the Send procedure). This package bundles the email message and sends it to the UTL_SMTP package, and then the email message is sent to the SMTP server.
Listing 2. Syntax for UTL_MAIL.SEND
UTL_MAIL.SEND( sender IN VARCHAR2,
                                 recipients IN VARCHAR2,
                                cc IN VARCHAR2 DEFAULT NULL,
                                bcc IN VARCHAR2 DEFAULT NULL,
                                subject IN VARCHAR2 DEFAULT NULL,
                                message IN VARCHAR2,
                                mime_type IN VARCHAR2 DEFAULT
                                'text/plain; charset=us-ascii',
                                priority IN PLS_INTEGER DEFAULT NULL);
Examples: I've created a database trigger that will send an email using UTL_MAIL (see Listing 3).
Listing 3. Database shutdown using UTL_MAIL
CREATE OR REPLACE TRIGGER SCOTT.db_shutdown
before shutdown on database
begin
utl_mail.send(
   sender => '[email protected]',
   recipients => ' [email protected]',
   subject => 'Testing utl_mail',
   message => 'The receipt of this email means'||
    ' that shutting down the database'||
    ' works for UTL_MAIL '
end;
