Bash error messages: backtick vs single quote

I'm running xfstests over NFS... the expected output for test 306 is:
touch: cannot touch `SCRATCH_MNT/this_should_fail': Read-only file system
^^^
But I'm seeing:
touch: cannot touch 'SCRATCH_MNT/this_should_fail': Read-only file system
^^^
The test is failing because my system is printing a single quote instead of a backtick before SCRATCH_MNT. Is there an easy way to control this?

Hi,
What is your locale ?
Sometimes, the quote characters in the program's output depends on the current locale.
You should try some of these:
LC_ALL=C your-command
LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8 your-command
For instance:
$ LC_ALL=C cp -v a b
'a' -> 'b'
$ LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8 cp -v a b
‘a’ -> ‘b’
$ LC_ALL=fr_FR.UTF-8 cp -v a b
« a » -> « b »

How to Inscribe all the error messages into a single package ??

Hi,
I want to Inscribe all the error messages into a single package., and call the concern package from the exception block in every sp by passing the error code to that package, which will return the Concern error message to the calling Sp.,
Can any one help me out how to accomplish this ., ?
regards
Raja

I want to Inscribe all the error messages into a single package., Why do you want to inscribe all the messages in a package?
I would suggest you to store them in a table instead and you can write a functin to retrive the error messages required.
But if your requirement is for 'Package' then assuming that you store all the error messages in a table 'error_table' (say) following code may help you .
CREATE TABLE Error_Table (
Error_Code VARCHAR2(10),
Error_Desc VARCHAR2(1024));Now insert your error codes and descriptions in this table.
CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE pkg_Error_Handler
AS
FUNCTION f_Get_Error_Message(p_Error_Code Error_Table.Error_Code%TYPE) RETURN VARCHAR2;
END pkg_Error_Handler;/
CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE BODY pkg_Error_Handler
AS
FUNCTION f_Get_Error_Message
       (p_Error_Code Error_Table.Error_Code%TYPE)
RETURN VARCHAR2
IS
    lv_Error_msg Error_Table.Error_desc%TYPE;
BEGIN
    BEGIN
      SELECT Error_desc
      INTO   lv_Error_msg
      FROM   Error_Table
      WHERE Error_Code = p_Error_Code;
    EXCEPTION
      WHEN No_Data_Found THEN
        lv_Error_msg := 'No such error code '
                        ||p_Error_Code
                        ||' defined in the system';
      WHEN OTHERS THEN
        lv_Error_msg := p_Error_Code;
    END;
    RETURN lv_Error_msg;
END f_Get_Error_Message;
END pkg_Error_Handler;
/and you can call this packaged funtion from any exception block to get the error description.

All error messages in a single window

Hi,
Just a small help needed . Actually i want that all the error messages should be displayed in a single window for the mandatory fields check,when one try to save the form.I had made a function which is being called by the fields at their pre save event for the mandatory check and all the error messages are been taken into a global array and displayed.But the problem is that the error message window is displayed only for the first time when i try to save the form and after that no mandatory check is being done .What might be the issue with my logic or anybody can provide some other pointers that how all the error messages can be displayed in a single window in the end ?
Thanks

I do not know of a way to do this in the current product.

How to copy item value that contain a single quote(')?

Hi,
I have one "Copy" button in a APEX form. When user clicks it, it simply copy the item's values from the form to a new form by using APEX provided function behind the button- "Set these item values with these values". It is simple and works fine in normal cases. However, see, we have a text field called "Product Details", user types in for example "Oracle's new vision". When I click COPY button, APEX try to copy the text in "Product Details" field from this form to a new form but it returns error because of that single quote. Is there any way I can do something to replace that single quote with two single quote like we usually do in PL/SQL in the place "Set these item values with these values" of APEX button? I tried REPLACE(#P66_PRODUCT_DETAILS#., '''', '''''') but not work. I saw someone in the forum meantioned that to use something like "/#P66_PRODUCT_DETAILS#/" to get around. Any one with success?

Thanks. I think it should work this way. However, our form has about 20 ~30 text fields, I have to create 20~30 hiddle fields to handle the problem because I never know which field could contain a single quote. Ideally, a new version of APEX should have the functionality to deal with the problem when using "set values with those values" method. At least, it should provide some kind of interaction for user to get away from single quote or comma or column etc.
What I did is to get out of APEX native function and to create a new records in background by PL/SQL using record id that passed in from APEX form. It works perfectly. Although, user can only edit the record after it is created, not as user friendly as "Copy first-look at it-edit it-then create it" I originally planed.
Thanks for your help,

How to set error message inside the loop...module pool

Dear all,
     Am creating Table Control without wizard. In that i am looping the values, that is, Once if i entered 5 digit values means, 12345-08... the values should be stored in z-table like this 12345,12346,12347,12348 . That is 5-8 it as to update in z table. for this i createdloop at itab and inside that i written a code to count the value and all. and also its clearly updating the value in ztable too. now i want to know, if once again i entered the same value means, like 12345-08.. it as to show error messge.I dont know how to set the condition with error message inside the single loop .... Its all comes under module pool program.
Thanks,
Santhosh.R

If i understood your doubt, here goes the answer.
LOOP AT itab INTO wa_itab. " This is your loop
l_tabix = sy-tabix. "l_tabix receives the line of the loop
READ TABLE itab WITH KEY itab = wa_itab. "itab is the same tab of your loop
IF sy-subrc EQ 0 AND l_tabix NE sy-tabix.    "Here the sy tabix have the value of the read table.
*     Here you do your error treatment.
ENDIF.
ENDLOOP.
Explanation: When you are looping your internal table, you use a READ TABLE to see the already recorded registers. If the read table finds one register (sy-subrc EQ 0) and the this register is not the one of the current line (l_tabix NE sy-tabix). It means you have a duplicated register.
Maybe there is someway easier to do this, but this is what i thought now.
I hope this was your doubt hehe.

Table Creation halted by misleading error message

When creating a table, the action was not allowed with error 01950 - no priviledges on tablespace NAME.
The JDeveloper GUI front end provides many "priviledges",
none of which corrected the situation.
It was not until I went to orafaq.com and did a search
did it show me that the error was in the Quota.
It would improve the product to add a new error message
that reads: "No Quota on tablespace NAME" so users are not misled.

Error Handling and Error Messages

I already posted this in the java programming forum, but I dont think the people responded understand patterns, or what I was asking. Here is my original post, for reference I am not asking how to catch and exception, or how to display an error, I am asking about the pattern implementation.
I am currently in the process of creating my Exception model for my program, and I have a question about error messages. I was reading the book "Effective Java Programming" which deals with patterns and it states that an exception should state the error and report information on all relavent states. For instance If you have a class the modeled some sort of memory array, and an access was requested to a block of memory outside the array you should throw an ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException("Index:" + index + ", start:" + 0 + ",end:" + Array.length) or if you made your own MemoryAddressOutOfBoundsException(same as above) which when printed should read
ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException: Index:-1, start:0, end:0
stack trace
The pertinate information is the index, start index, and end index.
The book CLEARLY states as an industry design pattern that exceptions weather checked or unchecked should not contain user error messages. For instance with the above example one might be tempted to use this as the exception message: "The memory addres index is not a valid memory address." This is clearly a user error message.
So heres my situation. In a gui environment (command line console not visible) how do you generated a user error message, letting the user know that an internal exception has occured.
In my previous implementation of my project, I used the exception message the user error message and just reported the message on a dialog. I have heard of people using error catalogs, which centrallizes all the error messages into a single class or file.
I was wondering if and Error catalog was a good approach, how I might go about implementing one, and if not how do you the community handle user error messages.

class MyAppErrors {
   public static final int FILE_NOT_FOUND = 0;
   public static final int DIR_NOT_FOUND = 1;
   public stat final String[] errMsgs = {
      "The file was not found.",
      "The directory was not found.",
   public String getErrMsg( int n ) { return errMsgs[n]; }
[\code]
And a nicer version would allow the calling code to pass in a substring so you could say "The file 'somename.ext' was not found."

Customizing Predefined Database error messages

Hi,
I've a ADF table from the view object in my page. The table has two columns and column 2 is mandatory from entity side (in db not null). While filling the table from the page, I kept 3 row's value empty in 2nd column.
Now on submit, it throws validation message which is as expected. But as I left 3 field in column 2 blank, in the message it says "Column 2 : Please enter a value" three times.
My customer wants that instead of three message string, it should display one message string like "Please enter values for column 2"
Is there any possibility to concatenate the 3 message string into single message? If yes what is the way to achieve it?
We are using JDeveloper 11.1.1.4
Thanks in Advance

Hi,
I'm also facing same problem since many days..I'm unable to concatenate multiple duplicate error messages into a single message.I've a ADF table from the view object in my page.When I'm entering multiple row values in a single column as a blank values(which are mandatory), and after When i click the commit,AttrValException is being occured and predefined error messages are being displayed in a dialog box.As the entered blank values are from same column, the error messages are duplicate as shown below::
(For example):
Error:
EmployeeId :You Must enter a Value
EmployeeId :You must enter a Value
EmployeeId :You must enter a Value.
When I click the commit button,Is there any way to handle the exception and concatenate these error messages into a single message.
I'm using JDeveloper 11.1.1.4.0
Thanks in Advance

Intermittent error on login page when username is entered as a single quote( ' ) and tab is pressed.

Hi All,
We have an ADF based portal application which has a login page with Username and Password inputText field.
When we type a single quote( ' ) in the Username field and press tab to go to the Password field an error is thrown saying "A connection to the server has failed" and this window does not close if we click on ok or the close option of the popup.
This is causing serious problems for us. It would be great if anyone could help us out as to why this is happening or if anyone has experinced the same issue.
Thanks,
Tanya

Hey Frank,
Sorry for the delayed reply. Since the issue was a high priority one and had to fix it ASAP we didn't have time to analyse it further.
We just inserted a javascript that prevented the form from getting submitted if a single quote is entered in the inputText field.
So far it has worked for us.
Thanks for your help though.

Error with single quotes in open document function

Hi all,
I have an issue with the special characters using the open document function. I'm passing a name, and I'm using the URLEncode function, but it doesn't work for single quotes, it shows a javascript error. I tried with HTMLEncode and it works for single quotes, but not for the other special characters like @,+. I tried with both functions at the same time but it doesn't work either.
Please let me know if you know how to solve it.
Thanks,
Marcela

Hi Prashant,
I did not work it works for single quotes only, but not for other special characters.

Getting "layer break" error message when trying to Preview a single sided DVD, or build an ISO image or disk folder

Hi! Hoping someone might be able to help with an odd problem. I haven't found anything in the forums or the web that match my symptoms.
I've been using Encore CS6 (v6.0.1.013) on a MacBook retina over the past year to successfully create a number of single sided DVDs with menus, chapters, and all that. I usually make a copy of a previous DVD project, and then replace video assets with the new files and transcodes, move and rename chapter markers, and rework the menus in Photoshop. I then will build ISO images for both DVD and Blu-Ray (both single-sided), and use those to burn many copies of each DVD for clients.
This week, while developing one of these projects, when trying to build a DVD ISO image that looked like it would fit on a 4.7 GB DVD, I received the "layer break" message ("The chosen layer break does not satisfy dual layer requirements. To fix this, either set a new layer break manually, or choose to set layer break automatically.") because (I'm guessing) the material was too long for the 4.7 GB DVD (the Build screen now shows about 5GB of material are in the project). This is the first time I've seen that message - usually Encore just tells me the material is too big for the DVD.
I re-transcoded the material down to well under 4.7 GB (about 3.9 GB), reverted and replaced the transcoded files, and now the DVD build screen shows that there are about 700MB free on a 4.7 GB DVD. But I still have not been able to build any version of the DVD (image, folder, disc), without getting the "layer break" message. I also now get this same layer break message when trying to "Preview from Here" any menu, killing my ability to preview the DVD menus in Encore.
Just to see what would happen, I chose an 8.4GB Dual Layer DVD, and chose "manual" instead of "automatic" for the layer break selection, but never got the layer break selection dialog box, just the "layer break" error message.
I typically build both DVD and Blu-Ray images from the same material in the same project. I use different transcoding settings for each, and I have been able to build a Blu-Ray ISO without this "layer break" error on the Blu-Ray build (which is about 24.5GB when built). And as I mentioned before, this is the first project on which I've even seen this layer break message.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! I'd rather not recreate the project from scratch, but I'm worried that I may have to.
Thanks
Jon

The total project being small enough may mean you have one layer that is too big. Both layers have to be smaller than half the disk, right?
Be sure you "run as administrator" for dual layer projects.
Encore may set the layer break correctly if it finds a good place, but there are numerous complaints about it being unreliable.
Build to a folder (no layer break is set), then use ImgBurn to build and ask to be prompted for layer break. ImgBurn is also unreliable under some circumstances.
The most frequent problems appear to be when there is no good location for a break. Do a search for "layer break imgburn" and you will see a variety of strategies.
