A Query regarding calling a DB procedure from a Crystal report

Hi,
Please tell me how can we call a database procedure from a crystal report (crystal report XI)?
I tried by selecting the procedure as a data source for the report; but its giving me an error "Invalid Argument Provided".
The procedure contains a single Update table statement. Could anyone please help me to resolve this problem as early as possible ?
Thanks & Regards,
Priyashree Katkar.

Dear friends,
I have to call MIGO transaction from my ALV report output. Now problem is that I have to set the value 'display' In the first header field, 'Material Document' in 2nd header field when MIGO is called from the report output. Morever there is no parameter ID for these two fields. So how to set the values w/o using parameter ids.

Hi,
Try this coding,

A problem when referring to a stored procedure in a crystal report

Hi all,
I've checked that when calling one stored-procedure within a crystal report, one sequence will be selected for 2 times. Thus 2 will be added to the corr. sequence No. And I've also directly ran such procedure in 'SQL/Plus' that follows, to make sure that actually the corr. sequence will be referenced by only once.
SQL> execute p_rpT_FCL_col (:te, 'ZIMU00000537SJU',:GRP)
PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.
SQL> print :te
TE
17
SQL> execute p_rpT_FCL_col (:te2, 'ZIMU00000537SJU',:GRP)
PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.
SQL> print :te2
TE2
18
Bst Rgds,
Edward

Well, can you please post the details about your stored proc?
<quote> I've checked that when calling one stored-procedure within a crystal report, one sequence will be selected for 2 times. Thus 2 will be added to the corr. sequence No.</quote>
Question: What do you mean by that? How many times did you run the report?
More details please.

How to call a stored procedure from WorkShop

Hello Everyone .. I'm quite new with WebLogic 8.1 & WorkShop, so please bare with
me .. Today I'm simply trying to find out how to call a stored procedure from
within workshop, using any of the DB Controls .. I see workshop provides a way
create a Java Control, Rowset Control, but it wont easily allow for a stored procedured
to be entered in place of the inline query .. Perhaps I've over looked it. Any
advise on the best way to tackle this task will be appreciated.

Calling a stored procedure from within a ViewObject

Is it possible to make stored procedure call from within a BC4J ViewObject? Basically something like this:
select * from table(f1(3)); where f1 is a table function. Using Oracle's pipelined table functions?
If not, is it possible to call a stored procedure from Java and have the returned results be put back into a BC4J RowSet.
In addition, is there a way to create a JDBC Resultset from a BC4J RowSet?
We need to be able to dynamically create our SQL statements (the entire SQL, not just the where clause) but are required to have these sql statements generated/executed from within a pl/sql stored procedure in the database.

Is it possible to make stored procedure call from within a BC4J ViewObject? Basically something like this:
select * from table(f1(3)); where f1 is a table function. Using Oracle's pipelined table functions?
Yes. Using our expert-mode query feature this is possible.
is it possible to call a stored procedure from Java and have the returned results be put back into a BC4J RowSet.
Yes. See this article about basing a view object on a REF CURSOR:
http://radio.weblogs.com/0118231/2003/03/03.html
In addition, is there a way to create a JDBC Resultset from a BC4J RowSet?
No. Not directly. What's the business requirement here so I can understand better?
We need to be able to dynamically create our SQL statements (the entire SQL, not just the where clause) but are required to have these sql statements generated/executed from within a pl/sql stored procedure in the database.
REF CURSOR would work fine, or if it's just the statement that needs to be generated dynamically, you could fetch the text of the SQL statement from the stored procedure, then use createViewObjectFromQueryStmt(). Although this has runtime overhead involved with describing the query.
The REF CURSOR based approach is probably best for this.

Calling PL/SQL Procedures from Java

Hello,
I want to know, if it is possible to call PL/SQL Procedures from
SQLJ(which uses htp.print from the Package web toolkit ).
Though, it is possible to call normal procedures but if I want
to call PL/SQL procedures with htp.print then I get I error.
For example:
#sql{Call html_test()};
Can you give me a advice?
Your help is much appreciated!
M|ller

Oracle's htp packages are develop to be work with
mod_plsql/OAS/OWS webserver.
If you are trying to use htp packages first need to instanciate
some enviroment vars for htp packages, for example first you has
to call to owa.initialize procedure, populate owa.cgi array and
so on.
If you need more information about how this toolkit works you
could get the source of DB Prism at
http://www.plenix.com/dbprism/ this open source framework
includes backward compatibility with mod_plsql application and
then includes settings of this values from Java code.
Best regards, Marcelo.

Calling a stored procedure from a url

I am needing to call a stored procedure from a url string (or
anchor) understand that from training to be as follows:
http://host:port/pls/dad/package.procedure?query_string
With that in mind, I am getting an error as follows:
Not Found
The requested URL /pls/portal30/at_hrfm.checkshow.showcheck was
not found on this server.
Here is a sample of my url
http://servername:port/pls/portal30/at_hrfm.checkshow.showcheck
I can see servername:port/pls/portal30, it is just the
procedure I am having a problem with.
Here is a sample of my source code that is created under the
at_hrfm schema (I also tried under portal30 schema).
package body checkshow as
procedure showcheck as
begin
htp.htmlOpen;
htp.headOpen;
htp.title('My Check');
htp.comment ('This should be your Check');
htp.bodyOpen;
htp.header (1,'Check');
htp.print ('checkdate');
htp.bodyClose;
htp.headClose;
htp.htmlClose;
end;
end;

I think I figured this out. I don't think the grant to ANONYMOUS is going to work with production XE and the online documentation is in need of an update. It appears that production XE has been locked down and you will need to specify the name of each stored procedure you wish to allow to be executed by adding it to the WWV_FLOW_EPG_INCLUDE_MOD_LOCAL function. This is spelled out in more technical detail here: http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B25329_01/doc/appdev.102/b25309/adm_wrkspc.htm#BEJCGJFJ
Another alternative that would work involves creating a separate DAD. Using the DAD approach with my schema made all of my stored procedures callable from a web browser, so I rejected this approach. To make this usable (secure) I would have needed to create and maintain a separate database user for the DAD and then only granted it execute for the stored procedures I wanted to be callable from a URL.
Finally I read about using an on-demand procedure and having it invoke the desired stored procedure. While I didn't try this out, it sounds like another good approach because it maintains session security. If it can be used to return an image I do not know.

Calling a stored procedure from Reports

I am trying to call a stored procedure using oracle reports in the afterparameter code. My code is:
v_ain := sp_get_ain(:P_session_id);
Can someone help me out by telling what is wrong. I keep getting an error stating that sp_get_ain needs to be declared.?!

I am creating a function and a stored procedure and calling them
in afterparameter report trigger.
-------------------Create function ----------------
create or replace function get_name( emp_id number) return varchar2 is
v_name varchar2(20);
begin
select name into v_name
from sample_table
where employ_id = emp_id ;
return(v_name); ---------This is the way to return value from function.
exception
when no_data_found then
return('Name not found.');
when others then
return('Other error found.');
end ;
==================================================================================
------------------------Create procedure ------------------------------------
create or replace procedure get_name( emp_id number, return_name out varchar2) is
v_name varchar2(20);
begin
select name into v_name
from sample_table
where employ_id = emp_id ;
return_name := v_name ; --Assign out parameter value from procedure.
exception
when no_data_found then
return_name := 'Name not found.';
when others then
return_name := 'Other error found.';
end ;
============================================================================
-----------------Call function and procedure from report ---------------------
In formula column or any report trigger you can use this code.
v_function_return_name varchar2(20);
v_procedure_return_name varchar2(20);
v_employ_id number(10);
begin
v_employ_id := 101 ;
v_function_return_name := get_name(v_employ_id ); --- call function
get_name(v_employ_id , v_procedure_return_name ); -- call procedure
end;
Here v_function_return_name has same value as v_procedure_return_name,
these are the values returned from function and procedure.

Error when calling a stored procedure from a SQL Script

Apologies if this is a really dumb question but I can't seem to call a procedure in package from a SQL script. I have a simple package.procedure containing a loop to populate a table. I would like to include a call to this procedure from my database install script, that also includes my CREATE and INSERT statements. I run the script using "@install_databae" and the CREATE and INSERT statements run fine. The script gives an error when it reaches the line below:
exec lazarus.PopulateGridPositions;
and gives the error.....
BEGIN lazarus.PopulateGridPositions; END;
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-04063: package body "LAZARUS.LAZARUS" has errors
ORA-06508: PL/SQL: could not find program unit being called: "LAZARUS.LAZARUS"
ORA-06512: at line 1
The procedure and package have both compiled without errors and the statement on its own works fine in SQL*Plus.
I've obviously missed some fundamental concept with scripts and SQL. Please can anybody help me?

Histon FTM wrote:

>

And just checking:
You have schema called LAZARUS, which holds a package named LAZARUS, which holds a procedure called POPULATEGRIDPOSITIONS?

Jdbc NullPointerException calling pl/sql procedure from java

Hi.
Getting the following exception calling a plsql procedure from jdbc.
- Jdbc version is 10.2.0.2, but it also happens running several other variants, including 10.1.0.5.0.
- Application is running in Weblogic 8.1.3 (8.1 SP 3).
The procedure call itself has 2 in/out parameters which are tables (actually just 1 dimensional arrays), which I'm suspecting has something to do with the problem. I can successfully call this procedure using a plsql developer tool with the same bind parameters.
Any ideas?

OK... I figured it out.
Apparently, this error happens when you forget to register the output part of an in/out parameter. I would have hoped for better error messaging, but oh well.

Calling Oracle Stored Procedure from BC4J JSP App

I am on an extremely tight deadline and am trying to get my JSP application to use an Oracle Stored Procedure. I need to take some input from the user and send these values as parameters. Has anyone worked with Stored Procedures in JDev3.1? Please reply with some sample code if possible.
Thanks.

Hi,
Someone posted a similar request the other day. Here is my response to them:
Basically, you need to create a custom method from your JSP's ViewObject, which calls the stored procedure. You can then call the ViewObject's custom method from the JSP client.
Here is how I have done it:
1. Choose the ViewObject that your JSP is based on and choose 'Edit' from the context menu.
2. On the Java tab of the ViewObject wizard, choose Generate Java File checkbox for the View Object Class and click the Finish button. A file is created under the ViewObject node in the Navigator named 'viewobjectImpl.java'.
3. Open the viewobjectImpl.java file in the code editor and create a method to call your stored procedure (see sample code below).
4. Compile the VOImpl.java file.
5. Choose the view object again, and choose Edit again from the context menu.
6. On the Client Methods tab, you should now see your method appear in the Available field. Select it and shuttle it to the Selected field.
7. Click Finish to leave the VO wizard, and rebuild your Business Components project.
8. In your JSP, call the custom method (see sample code below).
sample code for custom method calling a stored procedure from VOImpl.java file:
public int getTotalHits(String mon, String year) {
CallableStatement stmt = null;
int total;
// the call to the PL/SQL stored proc
String totalhits = "{? = call walkthru.total_hits(?,?)}";
// use the AM conxn 2 call storedproc
stmt = getDBTransaction().createCallableStatement(totalhits, 1);
try
// Bind the Statement Parameters and //Execute this Statement
stmt.registerOutParameter(1,Types.INTEGER);
stmt.setString(2,mon); stmt.setString(3,year);
stmt.execute();
total = stmt.getInt(1);
catch (Exception ex)
throw new oracle.jbo.JboException(ex);
finally
try
stmt.close();
catch (Exception nex)
return total;
sample render code for calling custom method from JSP custom bean:
public void render() {
int totalhits;
try
Row[] rows;
// Retrieve all records by default, the qView variable is defined in the base class
qView.setRangeSize(-1);
qView.first();
rows = qView.getAllRowsInRange();
// instantiate a view object for our exported method
// and call the stored procedure to get the total
ViewObject vo = qView.getViewObject();
wtQueryView theView = (wtQueryView) vo;
totalhits = theView.getTotalHits(session.getValue("m").toString(),session.getValue("y").toString());
out.println(totalhits);
} catch(Exception ex)
throw new RuntimeException(ex.getMessage());
}

Calling packaged stored procedure from Java

Hi All,
I'm trying to call a stored procedure from Java but I'm having
problems with registrating the output parameter. I'm getting
the error: Conflicting parameters.: sqltype=2003
This is the stored procedure which is located in a package in
the Oracle database:
package Pack_GetAgencyInformation as
Type InfoType is record ( agen_code varchar(3), agen_designation
varchar(30), agen_adresse varchar(60), agen_tel varchar(12) );
function GetAgencyInformation( P_AGENCE VARCHAR )
return Pack_GetAgencyInformation.InfoType
end Pack_GetAgencyInformation;
This is the Java source from where I'm calling the procedure:
//DriverManager.registerDriver (new
oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver());
     Class.forName("oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver");
Connection conn = DriverManager.getConnection
("jdbc:oracle:thin:@164.48.69.125:1521:ventes", "system", "*****
// @machineName:port:SID,
userid, password
CallableStatement cs = conn.prepareCall("{ ? = call
Pack_GetAgencyInformation.GetAgencyInformation( ? )}");
     try {
          cs.registerOutParameter( 1,
oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleTypes.ARRAY);
     } catch (SQLException e) {
          e.printStackTrace();
     cs.setString(2, "001" );
     //ResultSet rset = cs.executeQuery();
The stacktrace:
java.sql.SQLException: Parametertypen conflicteren.:
sqlType=2003
at oracle.jdbc.dbaccess.DBError.throwSqlException
(DBError.java:168)
at oracle.jdbc.dbaccess.DBError.throwSqlException

(OracleCallableStatement.java:220)
at
oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleCallableStatement.registerOutParameter
(OracleCallableStatement.java:350)
at dbAccess.main(dbAccess.java:25)
I think it has to do with the type InfoType which is created in
the Stored Procedure. I'm absolute no Oracle expert and I
prefer not to make changes to the Oracle database. So any
solution in Java is welcome!
BR, H.Rietman

I managed to get it to work only by changing the stored
procedure. I have changed the return type record to a Ref
Cursor type (had to change alot of code for this). It seams
that Oracle JDBC drivers DON'T support the Record type as a
return type.
So the next question is: is it possible to typecast a record
type to a ref cursor type in Oracle. In this way I can easily
change the return type for the stored procedures.

Calling Oracle Stored Procedure from Weblogic.

Hi All,
I am using Oracle 11g R2 and weblogic 10.3.5.0
Do you know if it is possible to call a stored procedure from Weblogic.
Basically, what I would like to do is to call the following procedure : EXEC DBMS_SESSION.SET_IDENTIFIER('provider_a') when my application connects to my database, "provider_a" being the user used to connect to the oracle schema.
Thanks.

Up !
Thanks.

Calling PL/SQL procedures from a Windows CMD script

Hello,
I am writing a Windows CMD script. From this script I want to call procedures from a PL/SQL package which selects, inserts or deletes rows from the database.
How do I go about logging into the database from the cmd script and calling PL/SQL procedures from there?
Does anyone have any examples of such scripts? Thanks in advance.

No, it is not a job that needs to be scheduled.
The script will be used when needed to select info from a certain table and also to insert or delete certain info into/from this table (so, it is just simple sql statements which I have put into a package), but I'm sure how to log into the database and execute the procedures from this package in a cmd script.

Calling PL/SQL procedure from OBIEE

I Have to build a Dashboard to control the ETL process, the ETL Procedures have already been created and are stored in the database. I want the user to be able to execute some procedures from an OBIEE dashboard. how do you implement it?

User,
Evaluate function is used to call either functions or Stored procedures.
But, as per your requirement .. you wanted to fire the stored procedure from front end report i.e. execute the stored procedure.
And, all the reports which we build is 'Select' for simple. But, not Execute (As per my knowledge)
But, to execute a procedure - you need to run Execute command.
Can, you check for the following options:
1. connection script in connection pool
2. Any Java scripts .. which helps you to create a check box or button which by clicking executes the back end stored procedure. (And, copy that particular code into Dashboard object Text).
I think option 2 will help you to resolve this issue.
