Changing theme template in my APEX applications by scripts

Hello every body,
I wonder if there any issue to change my APEX applications themes by script ?
Best Regards

Anton,
1) When you export your application 100 from within Application Express from your old instance and you compare it to the one generated, are there any significant differences?
2) Can you export your application 100 from within Application Express from your old instance and import it back into the same (old) instance but with a different application identifier?

Oracle Apex Multilpe Theme for a single application

Hi All,
I have a query regarding display multiple theme for a single apex application. My object is to change the color scheme for an existing apex application and use both old and new color scheme in a single application. For example I'm planning to modify apex 3.1 theme 9 (Red theme) to green and wants to use red theme for some pages and green theme for some other pages in same application.
The following steps I have tried.
1. Copied /theme/theme_9 to my local
2. Changed color scheme of all the images.
3. Renamed my local folder name from theme_9 to theme_9_1
4. Moved my new folder to server path /theme/theme_9_1
Now I went to my application which have theme 9 and copied One Tab page template as One Tab Template 9.1. In my new page template I changed all the the /theme_9/ reference to /theme_9_1. In my application I applied this new page template to get green color scheme. But its appearing without any css scheme (even default style is not there).
So Please help me out to resolve my issue. and also suggest me if you have any other easy way to achieve my objective.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
You steps look okay to me, so not sure why you're CSS isn't working, I would need to see your actual templates to find out (perhaps you could put this up on apex.oracle.com). Just a few general pointers though, I would suggest using one of the newer themes, introduced in APEX 4.0 and APEX 4.1. Those themes are mostly DIV based, i.e. fewer HTML tables for formatting, and as a result, they are much smaller. They also use a DOCTYPE, prompting all modern browser to render your pages in standards more, ensuring better cross-browser compatibility. And most relevant for your task, they no longer use theme-specific class names, i.e. a class called "t9header", would now simply be "header". They also generally reference images directly from the CSS stylesheet, rather than inside your templates, making it much easier to modify your UI. So in essence, assuming you'd be using theme 21, all you'd have to do to switch from a red-look to (in this case) a blue-look, would be to reference the theme CSS file in /themes/theme_22, instead of /themes/theme_21, so in your templates, you would only need to change one path in your page templates.

Marc

Is it legal to create packaged APEX applications and sell them?

Is it legal to create packaged APEX applications and sell them to Oracle DB licensed clients?
A.

No licensing applies to any environment where you have a live database. The exception is that you can try a product without license, but as soon as development of a product of developing/testing of an in-house solution is done, you need to be licensed. Being a partner changes this slightly assuming all parties involved are partners (one sigle tester from the outside shifts it back to full license mode).
Another situation where license is not needed is to use XE for which no license is required.
Yet one more way to have al low cost is to use Amazon AWS to set up an image with an included license. The cost per hour is really low so it may be a good model to not have to pay everything upfront.
You can also reduce license cost by using named user licensing in development assuming there are few people who ned to access the database. Though there are minimums of number of named user licenses you can have depending on edition of the database.
Overall, knowing your licensing requirements is key. The defense "We didn't know" has been tried before and has not proven to help at all. The cost of an audit will often be a CLM for the person responsible to pay the licenses.

Flash contents not being displayed on the published Apex application URL

I've had to publish one of my apex application through an bluecoat proxy to reach my Oracle HTTP server. It works fantastic for everything - except my flash charts. Flash contents are not getting loaded.Issue is only in the published application URL,the same application is working fine internally without proxy.
Does anyone have any idea why this is failing and how I might fix this?.The bluecoat support enginner is having the following findings
I am seeing some strange behavior when the browser goes through the
proxy vs when it does not.
When the browser uses the proxy the last thing it requests is the
following(packet 354):

That is the browser requests
http://ithelpdesk.anupcomp.ae/i/themes/theme_20/btn-bg.gif and gets a
200 ok from the proxy/server.
When the browser does not use the proxy I see the following
behavior(packet 2783):
The browser requests
http://anupserver:7777/i/themes/theme_20/btn-bg.gif 2 times, each time
the server responds with a 304 not modified status, this means the
browser has the most recent copy of the .gif file. The browser finally
does a post to http://anupserver:7777/pls/apex/wwv_flow.accept. Given
that the browser gets a 200 ok response from the proxy when requesting
http://ithelpdesk.anupcomp.ae/i/themes/theme_20/btn-bg.gif and then
stops requesting data, we need to understand why the browser is behaving
differently without the proxy(i.e. why does it request the content 2
times and why is it doing the post). The interaction between the
browser and the proxy appears normal, a 200 ok response with content is
normal, why does the browser stop requesting content?

Hello Orton,
I think this has something to do with network access, may be a firewall restricting access to the server.

APEX application deployment

Hi All,
I will soon be exporting my first APEX application from a development database to a test database. I do not want to export the data which the application is built on as the development database contains sample data instead of the "real" data. Before exporting my application, I will of course install APEX 3.2.1 in the test environment and then import the "real" data into the test database so that once the application has been exported and installed in the new environment, the APEX application will already have its data in place.
On page 14-12 in Chapter 14 of the Oracle Application Express Application Builder User's Guide, I saw the following section:
Exporting an Application
When you export an application, Oracle Application Express generates a text file containing PL/SQL API calls.
To export an application:
1. Navigate to the Export page:
a. On the Workspace home page, click the Application Builder icon.
b. Select an application.
c. On the Application home page, click Export/Import.
d. On the Export/Import page, click Export and then click Next.
2. From Application, select the application to be exported.
3. From File Format, select how rows in the export file will be formatted:
■ Choose UNIX to have the resulting file contain rows delimited by line feeds.
■ Choose DOS to have the resulting file contain rows delimited by carriage
returns and line feeds.
4. From Owner Override, optionally select another owner. By default, the application is owned by the owner identified in the application attribute owner.
5. From Build Status Override, select one of the following:
■ Run Application Only - Developers can only run an application
■ Run and Build Application - Developers can both run and edit an application
Selecting Run Application Only is an effective way to protect an application from modifications from other developers.
6. From Debugging, select one of the following:
■ Yes exports the application with debugging enabled.
■ No exports the application with debugging disabled.
7. From Exporting Supporting Object Definitions, specify whether to export
supporting object definitions with your application.
8. From Export Comments, specify whether to export comments for this application.
See "Adding Developer Comments" on page 6-22.
9. Use the As of field to export your application as it was previously defined. Specify the number of minutes in the field provided.
10. Click Export Application
Since I do not have any images, themes, static files, workspace users, cascading style sheets, etc, to export, it makes no sense to use the “Packaged Application” method to perform the export. All I need is the application definition that contains all my interactive reports, forms, etc.
The next step would then be to Import the application into the target Oracle Application Express instance and install the application.
This method should be OK for my needs, right?
Thanks

By simply doing an application export, all you will export is the metadata associated with your application (page definitions, items, processes, validations etc).
No "Customer Data" will be exported neither will any tables or PL/SQL packages that are owned by your parsing schema.
If you aim is simply to export the APEX application and no tables, pl/sql units, data etc, then doing a simple application export should be good enough. Thats all we ever do and then add the PL/SQL units / table data on top as additional scripts.
Hope that helps

Can multiple APEX application use the same parsing schema?

Hi,
I have 4.2 APEX thru pl/sql Gatewat, 11gr2 DB and using theme 24.
Due to the APEX limitation for version control I would be splitting 1 big ERP applications into 24 different APEX applications and each application would be considered as 1 unit for version control.
I have about 800 tables and I would assume that all of these would need to be stored in 1 schema since a lot of these table are linked thru FK.
Can I have multiple APEX APPS using the same parsing schema? or is there a better way to do this?
Thanks in advance!

Hi,
Multiple applications can have same (one) parsing schema.
You can test that on e.g. apex.oracle.com, where normally you have only one schema and you create multiple applications and all use that same schema.
Regards,
Jari

40 QUERIES???? Why don't you move SOME of those to views in your database, unless they need some sort of parameters passed in, then move them to collections in a procedure... Sounds like a train wreck just waiting to happen....

Horizontal scroll bar missing after switch to Apex 4 theme

Hi,
I upgraded Apex to 4.02 and switch my application theme from old 3.2 theme to new Apex 4.0 theme,
I found that all the Apex 4.02 won't show horizontal scroll if the interactive report width larger than the browser windows width.
Is this the default behaviour of all the 4.0 theme?
How can I change it to display the horizontal scroll bar.
Thanks
Vincent

How about editing the template with some css?
something like this should fix your problems (worked fine for me)
#two-col
overflow: auto;
dont forget to change the template body (Shared Components --> Templates --> Edit Page Template )
(div class="tab-holder")
#REGION_POSITION_04#
(/div)
note: I reversed the tags to ( ) because it dont shows them else

Insert a record into a table through email in an Oracle APEX application

I developed an Oracle APEX application, there is a table called events. I can insert/update/delete a record in the table through browser. I am thinking in order to quickly do the data entry, user should be able to send an email, then the table should be inserted with values from email address, timestamp, subject and body. Anyd idea how to realize this functionality?
- Denis

Start by checking whether your mail server provides any API's for accessing emails , if it does you might be able to reduce a lot of work by using some kind of web service consumer from apex to your mail server. In any case your implementation is going to be dependent on your Mail Server configuration.
Your problem breaks down to reading/accessing mails from the mail server from PLSQL (apex is driven by PLSQL).
I found this other thread which could be of some use.
WAY TO ACCESS A MAIL SERVER FROM ORACLE APEX
<li>The following package might solve your problem directly(from carsten czarski of the German Apex community)
[url http://plsqlmailclient.sourceforge.net]http://plsqlmailclient.sourceforge.net
PS: POP3 support is still TBD.
<li>I also found this posting in the orafaq forums which lists a java method and PLSQL code bit for it for accessing emails via POP3
[url http://www.orafaq.com/forum/t/80928/2/]http://www.orafaq.com/forum/t/80928/2/
If these do not work for you, find some java library to read mail from your server, write a PLSQL wrapper for it and use it in a scheduled job(DBMS_JOB)/a PLSQL block triggered from Apex.
If you get stuck there, find some utility that can read mails, invoke them from your DB using java,shell scrpt,dbms_scheduler etc and use the utility's function for the rest.
NOTE: I haven't tried any of these utilities and you must validate any java code before running them on your environment.
Since aren't really much restrictions(other than spam checks) in sending a mail to your mail account, you might want to consider filtering out the mails from which you create records.

Could not able to login into APEX Application

Hi All,
Finally with the help of Jes and Anthony, I am bale to see Apex login page and Apex Admin login page.
But there are some issues in that, images are not properly displayed and also i could not able to login to admin page and even apex login page...It is showing some Javascript errors.
How shall I resolve them and work on APEX Application.
Thanks & Regards
Vishwanath GNV

Vishwanath,
Is this linked to one of your other posts? If it is a related problem then please try and keep it in one thread because it makes it much much easier for people to follow the flow of 'conversation'. By starting a new thread it makes it difficult to see what has already been tried etc.
Ok...so images and javascript are not working...so the obvious questions are -
1) Did you copy across all the Javascript, images etc as directed in the installation/upgrade guide?
2) Have you tried clearing your browser cache?

Is there an online gallery of APEX (stock) themes?

I'd like to be able to point my users to an online gallery of APEX (stock) themes, so they can choose one without me needing to sit with them just to show what is available in Application Builder, but I could not find one.

Vikas (and maybe Carl?) used to have a set of Sample Applications configured with every theme on apex.oracle.com, but I haven't seen any mention of this for years. Probably completely out of date even if still available.
The theme preview images should be lurking around in the images folders somewhere. (Where is not obvious from the 4.2 theme page, and I don't have access to an installation I can dig around in at present.) Start by trying to find them and you should be able to create a simple app to display them.

Apex 4 Theme and #JAVASCRIPT_CODE#

Hi,
I'm converting an application written in 3.2.1 to 4.0 and have tried a number Apex 4 themes.
None of them seem to have #JAVASCRIPT_CODE# referenced. This means that my custom javascript which I had included in a Page Header - and have now moved to the new 'Javascript' area of the page - is not being called.
I can't seem to find in the forum how the Theme should be edited to include #JAVASCRIPT_CODE#.
Any help on where and how to edit an Apex 4 theme to do that would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Chris

Hi Chris,
if #JAVASCRIPT_CODE# is not included in the header or footer attribute of a page template, it will automatically be "included" after the #HEAD# placeholder in the header template. So it's not really necessary to include it into your page template.
Have you had a look at the generated HTML code of one of your pages where you have used the new "Javascript" attributes? Is it really not included in the HTML output?

How to Print Receipts to Miniprinter from Apex Application

I have an APEX Application to control orders in a restaurant. I need to automatically print orders to an Epson miniprinter in the kitchen as they are generated in multiple workstations within the place.
There is no way of doing this in APEX. Is there a way to do it using PL/SQL? The server is not inside the place. The connection may be made through SQL*Plus or SQL Developer.
I can see hundreds of places where the receipts are printed automatically (convenience stores, department stores, etc). I am sure most of them are using Oracle. How do they do that?
I have been stuck with this for weeks. I can't find information about it in the forums, nor in the user manuals.
Please help.
Francisco.

Hi Sven,
Thanks for the reply.
I have an order_detail table where every dish and beverage is recorded. Where the category is dish, there should be a process running concurrently that sends that line (or the lines accumulated in a time interval of 30 or 60 seconds) to the printer and then mark them as printed to avoid selecting them in the following run. No button and no human intervention.
I have an APEX screen that does the job nicely, displaying the pending items and with a checkbox to mark them as delivered. But my customers want the printed thing.
For the check I have a BI Publisher report that is opened with a button, then the PDF opens and then the cashier must send that PDF to the printer. Two or three clicks needed and it works. But that is not practical for the cook in the kitchen.
The other issue is that the server is not within the place. Currently I am working with a server in the UK, and my business is in Mexico. So there is no way to have a printer physically connected to the server. Everything should be done at the client side.
So do you think there could be a solution in this scenario? Is there some way to spool from SQL Developer or SQL*Plus to a txt file concurrently? That might be the answer.
Option 2: Assuming the customer might want to buy its own server. Could you tell me more about that apex_job that may help?
Regards,
Francisco

Easy URL Address for APEX Applications?

I have an APEX Application with a URL like:
http://www.domain.de/pls/htmldb/f?p=105
and it would be nice if the url would be like:

I have searched for Apache and Alias entries, but most of them are matching through directories and not for simple links.
Hope anyone could help.

both solutions seem to be not so easy to understand.
the blog solution produces errors and where do i have to put:
my $configfile = "/export/home/oracle/HTMLDB/htmldbvirtual.conf";
i testing on a windows system at the moment, later on unix
the other solution in the posting from Jes i tried it like that:
