Broadcasting fails with more than X variables in variable screen

Hi all,
We have a few reports which have a variable screen with 10+ variables, mostly 3 mandatory and the rest is optional.
Normally a pop-up appears in which you can select which type (HTML, PDF, Portal etc.) and fill in the recipients. But for the reports I'm talking about, the pop-up stays blank or give an error "page not found"
First I thought it was an iView setting but I've compared all iviews and the settings are all the same.
Then I thought the webtemplates could have wrong parameters, but the LAUNCH_BROADCASTER settings are the same for 0ANALYSIS_PATTERN and custom templates.
Now I'm testing at query level and I found out that when I cut some optional variables, at some point it works and I'll get the pop-up I want.
So I wonder if there's a restriction in the maximum number of variables in the variable screen, which has impact on broadcasting? In one query it fails with 11 or more variables, but in another query it fails with 13 variables. It doesn't matter which variable I erase, as long as I stay under the mentioned number of variables, the broadcaster works for that query.
Is there a parameter or something which can be set?
We are on:
BW 7.31 SP9.30
Thanks for your help!
Regards,
Daan Boon

There is nothing restriction on no. of Query Variables while broadcasting. There is something else which causes this strange behavior. Can you update your BEx GUI to latest Patches?

Batch import fails with more than about 250 photos

The batch-import problem (more than about 250) persists with Keynote 09.
I am disappointed because I know no alternative to Keynote to make superior slideshows (Text, moving graphics, opacity control etc.)
I have to import 550 slides to Keynote 09. The only way is to move seperated batches of 200 slides into the program. Other tries (e.g. 250 + 250 +50) fail. It does not matter wherefrom I import, either from iPhoto or Expression Media; the import from the finder is unusable because of losing the sorting-order.
I hoped so much ...
Can anyone (besides Apple) help?
Thank You!

This may not be the solution you're looking for but have you tried using iMovie to create your slideshow?
I can tell you that it's super simple using iMovie '08. Nice transitions, nice titling, Ken Burns, etc.. Very nice. The only thing you mention that I don't think iMovie can handle is the moving graphics thing (at least by just inserting them as in Keynote).

Query fails with more than one UNION

Hi,
my query stops producing results (with same input) when trying to UNION more than two tables.
Moreover, it seems to have a "bad memory". See the following snippet:
-- old events
SELECT creationTime, eventId
FROM errorEvents
UNION
SELECT creationTime, eventId
FROM successEvents
-- new events
UNION
SELECT creationTime, eventId
FROM interactiveSuccessEvents
UNION
SELECT creationTime, eventId
FROM interactiveErrorEvents
1. Starting with the above (considering only the lower SELECT - with a single UNION produces good results.
2. Un-remarking to consider the 4 tables (3 UNIONs) produces no results at all - with same input data.
3. Remarking again, still does not produce results.
4. I get the expected results only after removing major parts of the query (and then bringing it back)
is more than 1 UNION not supported?
Thanks,
Yoram

The inputs are from different event hubs.
I have checked the logs and no errors are reported. The logs also report inputs, but no outputs.
I haven't verified it, but its possible that I had some outputs after a huge delay - I've noticed some output lines that I suspect are from the same "4-union query". If these lines are indeed from the same query - the delay was few hours.
I've never had this with the 2-union version - but may be coincidence...

Essbase Variable with more than a value for use after in Planning forms.

I want to now if it would be possible to create a variable with more than a value for use after in Planning forms.
The variable that I want to use is created in Essbase.
Example:
&Years = FY08,FY09,FY10

Hi.
The only workaround I know for the problem is to create parent in the dimension.
In your case, create member “planyears”.
Then you define children that are shard (this are the multiple member for the variables FY08, FY09 etc..)
Create Essbase sub variable that will have 1 member value “planyears”
When you use the Sub Variable in form select function “Children” and in that case it will use the member FY08,FY09 etc on the form.
Limitation: I’m working on version 9.2.0.3 so you can’t create hierarchy in the year dimension, but you can use it in other dimension.

Fill BEx Variable with more than one value via Custom Exit

Dear SDN comunity,
I want to fill a BEx Variable via a custom exit. My problem is, I don't know how to fill this variable with more than one value.

Updating JournalEntries object with more than one currency fails

I'm using SBO 6.50 (exactly CEE version 7.60.014 SP:01 EF:08).
   I'm trying to update memo field of existing journal entries. Most of them works OK, but if I try to update entry with more than one currency, update fails with an error code -5002 and message:
   Transaction includes more than one currency [OCRN].
Code (in C++) is quite simple:
SAPbobsCOM::ICompanyPtr m_company = SAPbobsCOM::ICompanyPtr("SAPbobsCOM.Company");
SAPbobsCOM::IJournalEntriesPtr pEntry = m_company->GetBusinessObject(SAPbobsCOM::oJournalEntries);
long m_nId = 1;     // TransId field, any valid value
try
     if (pEntry->GetByKey(m_nId) != -1)
          return;
     pEntry->Memo = _bstr_t("Memo");;
     if (pEntry->Update() < S_OK)
          throw(0);
catch(...)
     long lError; BSTR bstrError;
     m_company->GetLastError(&lError, &bstrError);
What's wrong? Using multiple currencies in journal entry is correct, it is possible to add them manually so it should be possible to update such an "safe" field as Memo is.

Hi,
I have the same problem, but if you go to Administration->System Initialization ->Document Settings, select "Per Document", and in Document, choose "Journal Entry", by default, the options are clicked, or "Blocked", this is why in DI yoy get this message.
Try to unchecked and it will work.

Problems deploying Windows 7 x64 computers with more than 8GB RAM

SCCM 2012 R2 CU1
Windows 7 x64
We have a weird problem after upgrading from SP1 to R2 CU1. We have built a Windows 7 64 bit image with the latest updates (currently September 2014 updates). It deploys fine to all computers. But after some days – don’t know exactly – guess after 4-7 days
- we start getting errors on computers with more than 8 GB of RAM. The errors just start out of the blue. We didn't change TS, image or driver package.
The error shows in 3 different ways – depending of the computer model.
1) BSOD – STOP 0x000000F4. Disk error.
2) Task Sequence error 0x87D00269 when installing the first Application in TS. The error seems to have something to do with Management Point not found.
3) Task Sequence simply stops after installing CMclient. No errors - it simply stops.
For instance we get the BSOD on the Lenovo ThinkCentre M93p. But on the ThinkCentre M83 we get the TS error 0x87D00269. M93p and M83 uses the same driver package. They consequently fail every time after the error has begun. If we reduce (remove physically)
the memory to max. 8GB of RAM, they successfully run the Task Sequence. We get the above errors on both Lenovo and HP machines with more than 8GB.
I made a copy of the production TS and started testing. I created a new driver package for M93p/M83. It contains only the NIC drivers. Now M93p an M83 successfully finishes the TS. Adding sata or chipset or MEI/SOL drivers to the package I get the 0x87D00269
error on both m93p and M83. At least not the BSOD on the M93p ;-)
Tried setting SMSTSMPListRequestTimeout to 180 in the TS. Also tried putting in a 5 minute break before installing the first Application in the TS. Also tried putting in SMSMP=mp1.mydomain in the installation properties for the CMclient. It is still
the same problem.
Investigating the smsts.log on a computer with the 0x87D00269 error.

Hopefully this is a bug in translating the errorcodes? Just to be sure I checked all the SCCM serviceaccounts and none of them have expired passwords. And again why only on computers with more than 8GB RAM.
Anyone else had problems rolling computers with more than 8GB og RAM?
Why does this happens after a few days? To begin with, it runs just perfect and then starts failing on all machines with more than 8GB. Without a change in TS, image and driverpackage. We have seen this pattern for the last 3 month after
updating our image with the latest Windows Updates. It all started after updating from SP1 to R2 CU1.
Why does it only affect machines with more than 8GB RAM?
How to get rid of the 0x87D00269 error?
Seems to be somehow related to driver installation mechanism in SCCM in combination with Windows 7 64 bit, +8GB RAM and SCCM 2012 R2 CU1 or perhaps just R2.
Any help or hints would be appreciated!
Thanks
Anders

We have the same workaround, using a x64 boot image resolved all our issues with WinPE 5.0.
Machines with >4GB of RAM
Lenovo ThinkPad T540p failed applying drivers with 80040005
Black screen/white cursor issues intermittently
No updates from Microsoft, they are still looking through the logs, but we have updated our boot images and all is well now. Our case it still open with Microsoft, they are researching the logs.

Error while running spatial queries on a table with more than one geometry.

Hello,
I'm using GeoServer with Oracle Spatial database, and this is a second time I run into some problems because we use tables with more than one geometry.
When GeoServer renders objects with more than one geometry on the map, it creates a query where it asks for objects which one of the two geometries interacts with the query window. This type of query always fails with "End of TNS data channel" error.
We are running Oracle Standard 11.1.0.7.0.
Here is a small script to demonstrate the error. Could anyone confirm that they also have this type of error? Or suggest a fix?
What this script does:
1. Create table object1 with two geometry columns, geom1, geom2.
2. Create metadata (projected coordinate system).
3. Insert a row.
4. Create spacial indices on both columns.
5. Run a SDO_RELATE query on one column. Everything is fine.
6. Run a SDO_RELATE query on both columns. ERROR: "End of TNS data channel"
7. Clean.

Thanks for help.

This error appears in GeoServer and SQLPLUS.
I have set up a completly new database installation to test this error and everything works fine. I tried it again on the previous database but I still get the same error. I also tried to restart the database, but with no luck, the error is still there. I geuss something is wrong with the database installation.
Anyone knows what could cause an error like this "End of TNS data channel"?

Spatial index creation for table with more than one geometry columns?

I think may be it is oracle provider's problem ,but i don't konw how to debug it Can anyone help me
Any help is greatly appreciated

I believe the null/empty string issue is unrelated to the 8 column issue, at least for ODP.NET. For example, let's take the original query in the OBE:
http://.../yoursvcfile.svc/EMPLOYEES?$select=EMPLOYEE_ID,FIRST_NAME,LAST_NAME,SALARY,DEPARTMENT_ID,DEPARTMENT,EMAIL,PHONE_NUMBER,MANAGER_ID
Let's make all the columns selected not nullable. You can do this with the Oracle Dev Tools. Specifically, PHONE_NUMBER and FIRST_NAME are the only nullable fields. I make them non-nullable and re-run the query and the same error occurs. Thus, these values should never be made null. Moreover, in all 107 rows, none of these row values consist of empty strings anyway.
Looking into the problem further, WCF DS is calling methods in the System.Data.Services.Internal namespace.
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.data.services.internal.aspx
Specifically, we see your issue when the ProjectedWrapperMany method is called. You will notice that there is ProjectedWrapper0, ProjectedWrapper1...ProjectedWrapper8 methods also present in the same namespace. As soon as the number of columns exceeds 8, ProjectedWrapperMany is called and we see the error. We're going to ask MS to help analyze the issue since this is an .NET-internal method being called.

Case structure with more than 200 cases, slower lab view app

Problem Description :
i am currently making a vi which compose of a simple case structures, a case structure with more than 200 cases, what i noticed is that the more i added cases the slower the labview reacts, it takes time for me to route wire on each of the cases.
i dont know if there are any setting in the labview environment that i can increase the buffer size? i dont know... but its getting slow (only on the
vi with more cases in a case structure)
mytestautomation.com
...unleashed the power, explore and share ideas on power supply testing
nissanskyline.org
...your alternative nissan skyline information site

Can you clarify what you mean by "slow". Does it run more slowly or does it feel sluggish during editing?
Could you attach the actual VI?
Overall, I agree with the notion of local variable overuse. For example, you read the same local variable twice in the same case. Is there a need for this? Is there a chance that it varies between the two reads? Typically, you would place the terminal in front of the case structure and wire to all the locations where you need the value. This ensures that the data is consistent. Still, this should not cause any slowdown problem.
(On a sidenote, the code in the upper left corner is inefficient. You convert the same data to lower case with each iteration, so you might want to place this before the loop and do it only once (well, if you are lucky, LabVIEW will fold the operation, but still....). Also your "index array" operation can be replaced by autoidenxing of the 2D array on the outer loop boundary.)

Function with more than one return value

Hi
Please let me know how to write a function with more than one return value and in what scenario should we go for this option.
Thank you

And the following is the correct approach (using OUT variables is not!) - you deal with the multiple values as a data structure. This example uses an custom (user-defined) SQL data type as the structure.

Slider with more than one thumb

Hi,
does anybody know a slider with more than one thumb?
The JSlider-class only provides one thumb, but I need more thumbs to displace.
That why I posted the last question: I found one in the web but when I call the constructor, I get that error.
Thank you all
Katharina

Hi,
I also tried MThumbSlider, a.k.a. CMThumbSlider (C for
Cougaar?), the slider with more knobs. (keywords: slider,
knob, knobs, thumb, thumbs, more, two, three.)
I downloaded the code from the link mentioned below,
run the example and it worked just fine. When I tried
to subclass the slider to add tooltips I got an exception
from the loader:
UIDefaults.getUI() failed: no ComponentUI class for:...
The slider has its own package. Its constructor
(indirectly) calls the following utility function,
passing itself as an argument, just before calling
JSlider.updateUI. The latter then calls UIManager.getUI,
which fails with the exception mentioned above.
public static void setUIName(JComponent c) {
    String key = c.getUIClassID();
    String uiClassName = (String)UIManager.get(key);
    if (uiClassName == null) {
      String componentName   = c.getClass().getName();
      int index = componentName.lastIndexOf(".") +1;
      StringBuffer sb = new StringBuffer();
      sb.append( componentName.substring(0, index) );
      String lookAndFeelName = UIManager.getLookAndFeel().getName();
      if (lookAndFeelName.startsWith("CDE/")) {
        lookAndFeelName = lookAndFeelName.substring(4,lookAndFeelName.length());
      sb.append( lookAndFeelName );
      sb.append( key );
      UIManager.put(key, sb.toString());
}When the slider is subclassed outside of the package,
the above results, e.g., in
UIManager.put("MThumbSliderUI", "MetalMThumbSliderUI");thus the package name is lost. To correct such behaviour
I changed the substring with the package name, including
the last dot. The same goes for function createUI.
There is another thread on this subject:

OAS 4.0 and Oracle 8i refuse to exec stored proced with more than 20 params

Hi,
I'm programming a web application with stored plsql procedures and Oracle Application Server.
I started using Oracle 8.0.5 and OAS 4.0. It was working fine until I needed to use dynamic plsql and decided to upgrade to Oracle 8i (8.1.7).
Some of my stored procedures have more than 20 input parameters and didn't supose any problem in the "old" installation, but now when I try to execute
them via OAS over Oracle 8i it returns an error as if the number of parameters I gave were incorrect.
Modifying the procedure so it has less than 20 parameters works fine.
In resume: with the same input form and the same stored procedure with more than 20 input parameters works under Oracle 8.0.5 but fails under 8i.
Any ideas why the newest version doesn't accept more than 20 parameters?
Thank you.

Hi Martin.
So, as far as i understood is the step where data is loaded into database that is taking too long ?
Wich one of these is your cenario ??
Cenario 1
Step 1) Export product data as CSV fike
Step 2) 3rd party app parses data (some processing is done in CSV file) generating another (or overwritting the original) CSV file
Step 3) CSV file generated in step 2 is pushed to database using sqlloadr
Step 4) Some pos-loading transformation is done
Cenario 2
Step 1) Export product data as CSV fike
Step 2) CSV file is loaded into database using SqlLoader
Step 3) After sqlloader is finish, some post-load processing is done
Step 4) 3dr party transformation is done
I think your problem can be in loading that data into database.
Is the CSV file big?
you can fasten sqlloader using direct-mode, destination tables can be in nologging mode (faster) and with the right space allocated (avoiding segment alocattion overhead)
Best Regards

In the Oracel Web Application Server 4.0 documment, it says
about owa_text.vc_arr :Type vc_arr is table of varchar2(32767)
index by binary_integer.
I amusing PL_SQL with Oracle8i and OWA4.0 web server.I want to
use owa_text.vc_arr to pass the multple line texts in my form.
If the text length is less than 4000 characters, everything works
fine.However when the texts are longer than 4000 characters but
less than the max length 32767 characters, I got this error
message:
OWS-05101: Execution failed due to Oracle error 2005
ORA-02005: implicit (-1) length not valid for this bind or define
datatype.
Owa_text.vc_arr is supposed to handle the string with more
than 4000 characters, is it true? Could anyone tell me why? Any
help will be greatly appreciated!!!
Thanks very much.

Here is the pl_sql procedure to create my form:
PROCEDURE myform
IS
BEGIN
htp.p('
<form action="'||service_path||'helena_test.saveform3"
method=post>
<input type=hidden name=tdescription value="X">
Input1: <textarea name=tdescription rows=50 cols=70
WRAP=physical></textarea>
Input2: <textarea name=tdescription rows=50 cols=70
WRAP=physical></textarea>
<input type=submit name=WSave value="Save">
</form>
END;
/***** here is the pl_sql procedure which I use to save the
form***/
procedure saveform3(tdescription in owa_text.vc_arr,
WSave in varchar2 default 'No')
is
len pls_integer;
begin
for i in 2..tdescription.count loop
len := length(tdescription(i));
htp.p(len);
htp.p(tdescription(i));
end loop;
end;

Helena, I think you might get a better response either from the SQL-PL/SQL forum, or perhaps the Portal Applications forum - both of these tend to have folks very familiar with PL/SQL and the OWA packages.
This forum is on Web services based on SOAP, WSDL and UDDI. These can be PL/SQL based but typically don't use the mod_psql or OWA web solution.
As a pointer, I suspect you may already be familiar with, but just in case, you can always take a look at chapter 3 of the OAS documentation, "Developer's Guide: PL/SQL and ODBC Applications" where they go through a number of examples using parameters. See:
http://technet.oracle.com/doc/appsrvr4082/guides/plsql.pdf
Hope this or folks from the other list can help.
Mike.
