A (very) tricky question ...

I have been tasked with installing Oracle 9 on Solaris (32 bit SPARC) - not too difficult, except for the fact that for some reason I only have the contents of the stage/ directory of the three install disks; and unfortunately I no longer have access to the parts of MetaLink where one can get hold of older copies of Oracle. But since I have the stage files, I ought to be able to do it anyway, with a bit of fiddling around - it is after all just a bunch of jar files, right?
But - there doesn't seem to an easy way to get the unpacked files into the right directory structure where I can then start creating a database instance. I have done it before, but with a slightly earlier release, and it is no longer quite as obvious. Can anybody tell me how to do, please? Or is that classified :-)

Unfortunately that is the one thing I can't do; as I said, I don't have access to the more useful parts of MetaLink.

  • A very very tricky question

    Hi All,
    Please help me in this question. There is a table with 4 columns in a table
    col1,
    col2
    col3
    col4
    A user should be able to see the first 3 columns and be able to refer the col4 although he does not have access privilege on the col4.
    Is this possible in Oracle ? If yes, please le me know how to.
    I think it is not possible by views.. may be some new features of 9i or 10g like vpd.
    Please let me know
    Thanks in advance

    Re: A very tricky question
    Since it is the same folks in the Database - General forum and in the SQL & PL/SQL forums, please try not to cross-post. Having multiple discussions on exactly the same topic in different forums is going to be confusing for posters and often leads to folks duplicating a lot of effort.

  • If I upgrade to Mountain Lion on the computer that will install it, will my WIFI still work on the computer that cannot be upgraded? I know this is a very basic question

    If I upgrade to Mountain Lion on the computer that will install it, will my WIFI still work on the computer that cannot be upgraded? I know this is a very basic question. Trying to hold out as long as I can, but purchasing an iPhone for Christmas and new iMac next year when warrently expires.

    Thank U very much for the quick reply, I wanted to upgrade this weekend, but still on the fence. I can live with the software that is not compatible, they are on another compuetr, just didn't want the obvious stuff to stop working.

  • Possibly a very basic question but I have set up a spread sheet in Numbers and have viewed help videos but I can't get it to give me sums for the columns I highlight.  Keeps coming up with the figure zero.  I have version 09 2.3(554). Can anyone help

    Possibly a very basic question but I am going nowhere without a solution.  I have set up a spreadsheet in Numbers but it won't give me sums for chosen columns. I  have viewed the run through videos and used the formula but nothing happens apart from giving a figure of zero or a red arrow.  The sum icon in the bottom left hand section of the window does not highlight or show any total as I understand from the video that you can drag whatever total is here onto the relevent position on your spreadsheet.  I have Numbers 09 version 2.3 (554). Can anyone advise. Thanks.

    Hi Sohojools,
    To sum a column, use a formula such as this one in Cell A6
    Type this in a cell below your data:
    =SUM(A2:A4) or whatever range of cells you want to sum. The easy way is to type:
    =SUM(
    and then drag or shift-click to select the range of cells. Close the formula with a final bracket ")".
    The sum icon in the bottom left hand section of the window does not highlight or show any total
    To see the sum (and other simple statistics) in the bottom left, select a range of cells. That tells Numbers which cells you are refering to.
    The videos are good, but the Numbers'09 User guide, and the Formulas and Functions User Guide are better. Download them from the Help Menu in Numbers.
    Regards,
    Ian.

  • Very simple question, how do you configure windows 8.1 to use a SF card as the default install location for software applications?

    Very simple question, how do you configure windows 8.1 to use a SD card / external drive as the default install location for software applications? Primarily interested in apps installed from the windows store. This should be available in the settings
    charm within the windows store. This must have been overlooked in the development of windows 8.1 or is a bug.

    The registry method does not work with 8.1.  I found this out the hard way.  Doing it on 8.1 will leave you reinstalling the OS if you didn't do a SRP beforehand.

  • A very very very simple question

    Hi guys,
    I have a very simple question and standard but I cant find anywhere...
    I have two dateTime variables, i need to calculate difference between this dates in days, thats it.
    I tried all functions and tried without success a Java Embed task but I couldnt retrieve this objects as java.util.Date so I couldnt calculate exactly the difference in days like this pure java code:
    (dataVencimento.getTime() - dataReferencia.getTime()) / 86400000L)
    can you help me this?

    Hi Jose
    Just see if these alternate approaches works. I know there may be lot like this and you may be lucky to find out simple out of box solution itself. If you want to solve this issue and move ahead, gives these approaches a shot.
    1. Create a very simple standalone WebService that takes 2 input date elements (can be of Date type or String type. If string type, convert to date in your java code). Create a simple operation like getDaysBetween(firstDate, secondDate). In the generated webservice impl class, use the java code apis (refer earlier link for usage), and get the difference. Return this value. NOW, invoke this WebService in your BPEL Process, and pass your 2 inputs (if the bpel payload elemetns are date object or string objects of date), and get output, and then use this output in your continuing bpel process.
    2. This approach, I did a long back. When we insert any expression using XPath, in that editor window on bottom right side, we see many categories and for each category we see list of functions we can use, like for String, we can use concat etc. I vaguely remember reading somewhere, that we can add our own custom functions also in this section. So explore this direction and see if you can add your own function and then use that fucntion with your 2 input dates.
    I have not given solution to your problem, but may be these directions can help you move ahead. Or something along these lines.
    Thanks

  • A very simple question..Very Urgent

    HI,
    I have a very simple question.I am able to set up the client authentication as well as server authentication. Now do i need to authenticate (both server as well as client auth.) for every request i send to the server on https...i think it should be like that it should authenticate only for the first time and for the next upcoming requests in same session should not require any server or client authentication.. i think as it happens in browsers..
    what is the fact actually??..can somebody put some light...right now in my case it is authenticating for every requests..
    This is what i have done..
    /****constructor part********/
    // and tm are arrays of keymanagers and trustmanagers for client keystore and truststore
    sslContext.init(km, tm, null);
    HttpsURLConnection.setDefaultSSLSocketFactory(ssf);
    HttpsURLConnection.setDefaultHostnameVerifier(new MYHostNameVerifier());
    /****Method to send the request and response*********/
    urlConn = (HttpsURLConnection)url.openConnection();
    urlConn.setDoInput(true);
    urlConn.setDoOutput(true);
    OutputStream os = urlConn.getOutputStream();
    ObjectOutputStream oos = new ObjectOutputStream(os);
    oos.writeObject(someobject);
    oos.flush();
    InputStream is1 = urlConn.getInputStream();
    ObjectInputStream ois = new ObjectInputStream(is1);
    SomeObject retObj = null;
    retObj = (SomeObject)ois.readObject();
    ois.close();
    System.out.println("Get String>>>>> "+retObj.getString());
    I am creating the object of this class..and calling the method again and again for sending requests and response..so i think handshake everytime i call the method...what i want is that handshake should happen for the first time and for the next requests no handshake or certificates should be checked or processed..
    is it possible ..how..what i need to do for that..
    please help me in this..

    I am a Chinese student in a university.I have a very simple question to ask.
    I have writed a EJB module,and I have deployed to Weblogic8.1 successfully.
    1.Now I want to write a client program.Is it necessary that the client program is packaged in the EJB package.For example ,the EJB package is Beans,is "package Beans " or "import Beans.*" necessary in my client program.
    2.If I only know the EJB interfaces,that means the EJB module is writed by other programer.I want to know how I can write the client program.How can I call EJB module's method writed by other programer.Could you give me a simple example?

  • HT4753 I have a very simple question: how do I view where Lion has autosaved my current version to (without the convoluted route of using finder)? In days gone by i'd simply use the save as function to see where it was being saved.

    I have a very simple question: how do I view where Lion has autosaved my current version to (without the convoluted route of using finder)? In days gone by i'd simply use the save as function to see where it was being saved.

    It's actually even easier than using Save As to see the full path to the currently open document. Just do a "Secondary click" on the document title in its window's title bar.
    Like you, I relied upon Save As my whole life to check a file's location and considered it a must-have capability. Turns out it's even faster to use the single-click method to reveal the full path to the open document. It displays the entire path to the current document starting from the level of your Mac, and works for files stored on drives as well as iCloud.
    If you're not sure how to do a secondary click, go into System Preferences, select Trackpad, Point & Click to find the current preference for secondary click on your Mac. If you happen to have a mouse with more than one button, it's probably the right button. As a trackpad user, I check the box to "Click or tap with two fingers," so a simple two finger tap on the title of an open document reveals its full path. This feature actually has been around for a very long time.
    Note that this is not the same thing as the Autosave and Versions menu, which is exposed using a little drop down triangle to the right of the title. There is no visual clue for the presence of this feature - you just have to know it's there, probably because this feature goes all the way back to pre-OS X days.

  • Very basic questions on text/email

    So I'm now convinced - with the 3.0 OS and the 3GS handset, the iPhone finally does all I want it to do and I'll be buying my first one in a couple of weeks.
    Before I do, though, I have a couple of very basic questions:
    1. Does predictive text only work in the SMS app, or does it work in the apps for email, writing notes, etc?
    2. Can you turn the predictive text off? (I find it wildly irritating, because I know far better what words I want to write than a pesky phone does!)
    3. Having email sent to a mobile is a whole new world for me! Do I need to subscribe to MobileMe at £££ per month, or is there another way of having email from my three accounts forwarded to my mobile?
    Hope someone can help!
    Cheers,

    1. Does predictive text only work in the SMS app, or does it work in the apps for email, writing notes, etc?
    It works with Safari, the Mail client, the Notes app, and with the SMS app.
    2. Can you turn the predictive text off? (I find it wildly irritating, because I know far better what words I want to write than a pesky phone does!)
    Yes.
    3. Having email sent to a mobile is a whole new world for me! Do I need to subscribe to MobileMe at £££ per month, or is there another way of having email from my three accounts forwarded to my mobile?
    You can access any IMAP or POP account with the iPhone's Mail client, and access multiple email accounts. I currently access to email accounts with the iPhone's mail client - my MobileMe account, and a business POP account. You can access all 3 of your email accounts with the iPhone's Mail client.

  • A very basic question regarding data block

    Hi All,
    I've a very basic question concerning data blocks in oracle forms 10g.
    I want to make a view only screen (only query allowed, no update, insert or delete).
    I'll have 6-7 fields on the screen but all the fields are not from a single table.
    For e.g, let say we've field names to display on the screen are f1, f2, f3, f4..
    Out of this f1 and f2 will come from table A and f3, f4 will come from table B.
    Now, my question : Is it possible to create a data block using the data block wizard for such situation if we select create data block from table options?
    If no, can you please tell me an approach to do this.
    Regards,
    Navnit

    Hello ,
    First write your query & select datablock property.
    just change the below properties
    Query Data Source Type=From Clause Query
    Query Data Source Name = (Paste query here)
    now you should add the block ITEMs and give their names according to query columns names. shows the column on canvas and run..

  • Script Language Translation - Very Common Question, but unable to resolve !

    Hi Gurus,
    I know this is very common question, but I am stuck, unable to get this one resolved.
    Need to translate sap script "TEXT SYMBOLS" from "English" to "French".
    Have maintained language translation text symbol values in table TTDTG.
    But when i login through French language, these are still getting printed in English !!
    Any Pointers to resolve this will be of great help.
    Many Thanks,
    Madan

    hi
    1) Copy the Script into FR language and then change the Corresponding ENGLISH text to FRENCH text.
    2) Pass ur logon langauge   in the OPEN_FORM FM  Import parameters
                                                                                    LANGUAGE = sy-langu.
    so that whatever is ur logon langauge it corresponding Form will be called.

  • Very basic question... can photoshop overwrite the original file?

    Very basic question... can Photoshop Elements 13 overwrite the original file?

    You will need to check the Photoshop Elements for any particulars about that software.
    For Photoshop, if I make changes and exit saving those changes, yes the original is overwritten.
    Keep backups at all times and don't work off flash external drives. When people tell me their original 500 layer file got corrupted, and they didn't keep copies, I hate to tell them their weeks of work is down the bucket.
    In Photoshop, we use Image > Duplicate to work on a copy if we don't want the original touched, or File > Save as... where we give the file a different name. We save image.psd as image1.psd and image.psd is closed. We then have a copy, "Image1" opened.
