Ascii Backup: Writing block

Hello,
We are exporting data out of Hyperion Planning/Essbase into a flat text file. However we are experiencing the error: Ascii Backup: Writing block that is preventing this extraction to occur. Is anyone familiar with this error and can give me some direction on how to fix it?
Thank you,
Eric

Sounds like there are other process running against the cube while you are trying to do your backup. Some Planning user running a Business Rule while you are trying to do the backup?

ORA-01114: IO error writing block

What is the best way to recover from error :
Wed Nov 22 21:44:01 2006
Errors in file c:\oracle\admin\orcl\bdump\orcl_dbw0_3932.trc:
ORA-01242: data file suffered media failure: database in NOARCHIVELOG mode
ORA-01114: IO error writing block to file 65 (block # 260237)

DBW0: terminating instance due to error 1242
Instance terminated by DBW0, pid = 3932

The basic meaning of this error stack is DB writer is unable to write to the mentioned datafile. There could be logical or physical corruption (hardware failure) or another process blocks this datafile. In the latter case the problem should be temporarily,
1) shutdown the database
2) run chkdsk (to check for disk failures)
3) startup the database
If the error persists you have to restore/recover from a backup. Since the database is running in noarchivelog mode this can only be done from a cold backup, which means probably loss of data.

SQL Error: 1114: ORA-01114: IO error writing block to file (block # )

hi
When I run report in rsrt it is throwing me following error..

ORA-01114: IO error writing block to file (block # )
SQL Error: 1114
Error while reading data; navigation is possible

we have tried all the options
increased the table space of temp files but still the issue is not resolved
one thing we have observed is
1 case which we are seeing (not sure if this is only because of the below case)
we see this error specifically when we run query on our infocube ZWBS_C11 (CUSTOMIZED CUBE) which has MANDATORY VARIABLE ON 0PROJECT
do this variable has anything to do with the error..
because in other cases where we have like 5 reports on same infocube..
we dont see this error in other 2 cases where we dont have this mandatory variable on project
also we see this error in several other cases like when we are doing compression of info cube zic_c03
absolutely no clue of why this is happening..and when this is happening

Hi,
This issue is related Oracle database issue, check with Basis/Dba team. Oce they resolved you can run the report with selections.
If you know the table name you can check in SE14 (Data base Utility) and adjust the table. Some times it will work out.
Hope it helps you.

ORA-01114: IO error writing block to file

I am trying to create an index on a RAC database. I have tried this in two different schemas with two different tablespaces. I am not getting the standard "unable to extend segment" when you are out of space. I get:
Tried creating an index:
ERROR at line 1:

I actually lose connection to the database.
I checked udump and I get:

Additional information: 4
Additional information: 625225)

1. I have 525 GBs of free space in one of my tablespace which is plenty
2. I was able to create a new table and copy the data from the existing table. Just getting the problem with creating indexes.
I do not have a file_id 500, so I guess that is an OS file number.

Hi,
Your temporary tablespaces datafiles are ok? sometimes this kind of errors arise from those files:
1) Index creation , implies sorting ...therefore temporary usage
2) Cannot find the file number within dba_data_files
The (possible) reason for this, resides at the way temporary datafiles are structured: they don't allocate all disk space at creation time, like other datafiles.
For instance, you have a filesystem with 300Mb free, and you declared a 200Mb temporary datafile, check if it will have 100Mb or 300Mb freespace (Unix bdf/Linux df -k)? ... it's puzzling... if you later redefine size for temporary , adding 150Mb , the database will allow you to do that... cause it's not allocating the space, it will use the space when temporary space is required, and you'll be in troubles passing the 300Mb barrier... just at 300 Mb + 512bytes you're out of space.

ORA-01114: IO error writing block to file %s (block # %s)

One of my large query (has a large amount of sort) fails with the following error.
ORA-01114: IO error writing block to file %s (block # %s).
Uses Oracle 9.2 on windows 2000 server. The size of the TEMPORARY file increases and stops at 4.2 GB. This was the default TEMP file created by oracle at the time of installation. I have another 10GB of free space available on this drive (where the TEMP file exists). Information in DBA_TEMP_FILES table is given below.
Thanks in advance for helps.

IO error writing block to file (Apex 4.01, 11gR2, RH 64 bit & Using Gatew

I have Apex 4.01 running on a Linux Red Hat 64 bit server and the database is 11gR2. I'm using the gateway and receiving numerous io errors on files that do not exist in the database. Has any one else experienced this? Should I scrape the gateway and load https ?
File 201 does not exists in the database (error below). I have verified this the files do not exists using ( dba_data_files or dba_temp_files) . Is this a Gateway issue?
I have run dbverify and there are not corruptions within in the database. We have run a disk check on the SAN and there are not issues either.

Hello,
I think this is a database-related problem which also occurs when using APEX, but I don't think it's caused by APEX.
The error basically says that something is wrong with your filesystem.
I suggest you post this error description to the forum where the experienced dbas could help you more: {forum:id=61}
From what I know, these errors may occur when your filesystem is full or the file was deleted/moved or set offline for some other reason.
You could get a hint for troubleshooting by locating the file on your filesystem:
select file_name
from dba_data_files
where file_id=201;If it actually doesn't exist, something has messed up your data dictionary. You could then try to find out which tablespace and object/s have a hold on that file:
select
 owner,
 tablespace_name,
 segment_type,
 segment_name
from
 dba_extents
where
 file_id = 201
and
 block_id = 36609;I hope it's just the "disk full"-case.

Prior to upgrading my iPad to 6.1.2, it went into the same iPad bricking modal dialog. Apple has an OS issue that needs to be resolved. User's shouldn't have to restart their iPad because of an iCloud backup timer. I couldn't use my iPad for a week on vacation because of this error and I didn't know the reset trick.

How reman backup the blocks being written from memory to disk

Hi All,
I am thinking about one case when backuping the datafiles with RMAN.
That is the rman is about to backup block A when this block is being written by DBWR from memory to disk.
Let's assume the writing is just partially done. What will RMAN do in this case?
1. Wait until the writing is done and back it up
2. Backup what RMAN sees at that time
I am just wondering whether the choice 2 will leave the block inconsistent and so be taken as corrupt when restored.
Best regards,
Leon

That's why if you don't take backup of archived redo log file that was generated after the full backup, the backup is considered "inconsistent". If you use "backup database plus archivelog" command, this means that after backing up the database, RMAN switches redo log files and archives it to make the whole backup "consistent"

How do you include the actual CLOB value as ASCII when writing XML?

When using the XDK for PL/SQL ( creating XML from query ) and the table that you query has a CLOB column the value in the resulting XML document is
written as:
<column>(CLOB)</column>
how do you get the api to write the actual CLOB data?

That article is talking about choosing HOW to STORE an XML document.
I want to know how to write the contents of a CLOB column along with the other columns in a table in a single XML document.
I know how to store an XML doc as a clob I know how to store an XML doc object relationally.
I I have a table with 5 varchar2 columns 5 number columns and 1 clob column and I create an xml document as a clob from a select * on that table. I then write that clob to the file system. What is the clob columns data going to look like?
its gonna be <column>(CLOB)</column> THATS NOT WHAT I WANT. I want the actual data that was in that CLOB column.
Thank you for all responses.

Blocking session in hot backup mode?

In 8.1.7.4 Some time While in hot backup mode, blocking session occuring by checkpoint session background process. Can we issue the alter system checkpoint command in this
Situation ? how to handle this?

best way is to try and see but checkpointing frequently wont help in my opinion, a better workaround may be ensuring you only place one tablepspace at a time in backup mode and bring the tablespace out of backup mode as soon as you have backed it up.
