Confusion: Is biApps 11.1.1.7.1 requires configuration CSV lookup files?

Hi
Before running full load for Previous BIAPPS version 7.9.6.x CSV look-up files where important to configuration.
in this new version BiApps 11.1.1.7.1 does it requires ? whether BI Configuration manager replaced those old CSV ?
we where using this doc for Previous HRMS Biapps configuration http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E35287_01/bia.7964/e35272/anyimp_configworkforce.htm#BABGEFEJ

Parsing an XML file to a table

Hi,
I am looking at a scenario where right now we have a daily data feed that is an xml file that is approx between 1 to 2 GB in size. Using Java code, this file is parsed and one by one, the records are inserted into the DB (Oracle 10.2). But as the data feed is growing larger, so is the file size -- which is resulting in more time taken for this process to run.
I do realize that the ideal scenario would be to stop using the file as a source of feed. But this is beyond our control.
I looked at using sqlLoader but as I understand it requires a csv based file. In my case, I would have to convert the xml file to csv, which again might be a huge operation to be carried out daily. (Edit: Am I wrong? can we use Sql Loader here?)
Thus I am exploring options if there could be a way to write a PL/SQL procedure that would parse after taking this xml file as an input and load the data into a table. Any suggestions/directions will be hugely appreciated.
Thanks,
Ak
Edit:
I also browsed through a few questions asked previously here and I came across this: Import Large XML File to Table
My situation is similar and as per the suggestion here by A_Non, SECUREFILE BINARY XML storage can be used. But the problem I have is that I am on Oracle 10.2 while this option is only available in a later version, if I am right.

Thanks a lot for your reply Odie.
Exact Oracle version is Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.2.0.4.0 - 64bi
A couple of doubts here:
1. The file size would range 1-2 GB (and can go beyond) Is SQLLoader also an option feasible in this scenario?
2. The link you mentioned has this line: Storing the XML document in Oracle Database using Binary File (BFILE) -- How is this different from Binary XML in 11g? I am confused.
3. With respect to storage space usage, should we be concerned about the storage space/ memory that the operation of loading the file in this (temporary) table will take? Because right now, the xml feed file is residing in the webserver where java code iterates through it and inserts each record in the table. Now this will change and technically this file will have to go in the DB box.
We do not have the xsd for it as right now we retrieve a few selected tags from this xml, parse and store it in a table (columns mapped to tags). Below is the sample xml. This is one such record and there are thousands below it. I had to change things because of data confidentiality but it mimics the original.

Confusion in Logical System, port & RFC Destination

hi,
I have still few doubts regarding Logical System, port and RFC destication
My SAP ECC6.0 and XI configuration is:
For ECC 6.0 : Logical system name : T03CLNT400
Client : 400
RFC Dest : XIDEST
Port : XIPORT
For XI 3.0 : Logical System name : WXI
client : 400
RFC Dest : ECCDEST
Port : SAPEC3
now my confusion is, in t-code WE19, when sending IDOC to XI (idoc - file scenario), which entry i've to use in prot and Partner No in Receiver side and which port and partner no i've to use in Sender Side.
also in XI side when creating Technical sys for web as ABAP which logical system name i've to use and in File to Idoc Scenario which logical system i've to use as sender business system (third party file business system)
If possible please give me detail idea to clarify my cofusion.
thanks
ritesh

Ritesh,
<b>now my confusion is, in t-code WE19, when sending IDOC to XI (idoc - file scenario), which entry i've to use in prot and Partner No in Receiver side and which port and partner no i've to use in Sender Side.</b>
If you are sending from R3 then give the sender details as R3 and the receiver side as XI where you have created the port from R3 to XI etc.

Confusion with OCFS2 File system for OCR and Voting disk RHEL 5, Oracle11g,

Dear all,
I am in the process of installing Oracle 11g 3 Node RAC database
The environment on which i have to do this implementation is as follows:
Oracle 11g.
Red Hat Linux 5 x86
Oracle Clusterware
ASM
EMC Storage
250 Gb of Storage drive.
SAN
As of now i am in the process of installing Oracle Clusterware on the 3 nodes.
I have performed these tasks for the cluster installs.
1. Configure Kernel Parameters
2. Configure User Limits
3. Modify the /etc/pam.d/login file
4. Configure Operating System Users and Groups for Oracle Clusterware
5. Configure Oracle Clusterware Owner Environment
6. Install CVUQDISK rpm package
7. Configure the Hosts file
8. Verify the Network Setup
9. Configure the SSH on all Cluster Nodes (User Equivalence)
9. Enable the SSH on all Cluster Nodes (User Equivalence)
10. Install Oracle Cluster File System (OCFS2)
11.Verify the Installation of Oracle Cluster File System (OCFS2)
12. Configure the OCFS2 (/etc/ocfs2/cluster.conf)
13. Configure the O2CB Cluster Stack for OCFS2
BUT, here after i am a little bit confused on how to proceed further. The next step is to Format the disk and mount the OCFS2, Create Software Directories... so and so forth.
I asked my system admin to provide me two partitions so that i could format them with OCFS2 file system.
He wrote back to me saying.
*"Is what you want before I do it??*
*/dev/emcpowera1 is 3GB and formatted OCFS2.*
*/dev/emcpowera2 is 3GB and formatted OCFS2.*
*Are those big enough for you? If not, I can re-size and re-format them*
*before I mount them on the servers.*
*the SAN is shared storage. /dev/emcpowera is one of three LUNs on*
*the shared storage, and it's 214GB. Right now there are only two*
*partitions on it- the ones I listed below. I can repartition the LUN any*
*way you want it.*
*Where do you want these mounted at:*
*/dev/emcpowera1*
*/dev/emcpowera2*
*I was thinking if this mounting techique would work like so:*
*emcpowera1: /u01/shared_config/OCR_config*
*emcpowera2: /u01/shared_config/voting_disk*
*Let me know how you'd like them mounted."*
Please recommend me what i should convey to him so that i can ask him to the exact same thing.
My second question is, as we are using ASM, for which i am gonna configure ASM after clusterware installation, should i install Openfiler??
Pls refer the enviroment information i provided above and make recommendations.
As of now i am using Jeffery Hunters guide to install the entire setup. You think the entire install guide goes well with my enviroment??
http://www.oracle.com/technology/pub/articles/hunter_rac11gr1_iscsi.html?rssid=rss_otn_articles
Kind regards
MK

Thanks for ur reply Mufalani,
You have managed to solve half part of my query. But still i am stuck with what kind of mount point i should ask the system admin to create for OCR and Voting disk. Should i go with the mount point he is mentioning??
Let me put forth few more questions here.
1. Is 280 MB ok for OCR and voting disks respectively??
2. Should i ask the system admin to create 4 voting disk mount points and two for ocr??
3. As mentioned by the system admin.
*/u01/shared_config/OCR_config*
*/u01/shared_config/voting_disk*
Is this ok for creating the ocr and voting disks?
4. Can i use OCFS2 file system for formating the disk instead of using them as RAW device!!?
5. As u mentioned that Openfiler is not needed for Configuring ASM... Could you provide me the links which will guide me to create partition disks, voting disks and ocr disks!! I could not locate them on the doc or else were. I did find a couple of them, but was unable to identify a suitable one for my envoirement.
Regards
MK

HS - Generic - Transparent Confusion

I am attempting to connect to a SQL Server machine via Oracle 10gR1 on Windows.
I think I am getting the differences between heterogeneous services, generic connectivity and transparent gateways confused - and as a result am mixing up my configurations.
So far I have created a system DSN via the ODBC admin. called "oracletest". This DSN has been tested and is working just fine. Just in case it is important, it is using SQL Server Authentication.
Then I created the $ORACLE_HOME/hs/admin/iniths_oracletest.ora file with the following entries:
HS_FDS_CONNECT_INFO = oracletest
HS_FDS_TRACE_LEVEL = OFF
I then modified $ORACLE_HOME/network/admin/tnsnames.ora with
ORACLETEST =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = ECYDBLCYADD01)(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA = (SID=oracletest)
(HS = OK)
and $ORACLE_HOME/network/admin/listener.ora with
(SID_DESC =
(PROGRAM = hsodbc)
(ORACLE_HOME = e:\oracle\product\10.1.0\db_1)
(SID_NAME = oracletest)
I then bounced the listener and the database was registered. There was no registration of the oracletest entry. [Edit - the listener file was improperly named, once this was fixed the oracletest entry was registered at startup]
In sqlplus I created a database link
SQL> create databsase link oracletest using 'oracletest';
SQL> select * from combined_cd@oracletest;
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-28545: error diagnosed by Net8 when connecting to an agent
NCRO: Failed to make RSLV connection
ORA-02063: preceding 2 lines from ORACLETEST
I also changed $ORACLE_HOME/network/admin/sqlnet.ora
to SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICES= (NONE)
from SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICES= (NTS)
I haven't found any errors in the listener.log
I am guessing I am missing something small or have created some sort of vulcan mind meld of the different options that will never work.

T,
For your information:
'Hetrogenous Services' is the name of the system that allows an Oracle database to make SQL-like connections to non-Oracle systems. There are two types - 'Generic Connectivity' and 'Transparent Gateway'. 'Generic Connectivity' allows you to connect to ODBC and OleDB sources, and is provided as part of the database license and install. The 'Transparent Gateways' are built for specific systems (such as Sybase), and are licensed seperately. I think 'Generic Connectivity' used to be called 'Transparent Gateway for ODBC'.
Your problem:
I think the file in '$ORACLE_HOME/hs/admin/' should be named 'initoracletest.ora', not 'iniths_oracletest.ora'.
Here is a guide to getting started with Generic Connectivity:

IWeb Newbie here...I'm Confused

I am using iWeb to publish a web page using a .Mac account. I was under the impression that if I wanted something to be visible on my web page, then I would need to have that file in my iDisk.
However, I have used cut and paste in iWeb and the pictures look fine on the website and the source files are NOT in my iDisk. Does iWeb create a "separate" file structre?
Someone said to go to the folder "sites" in the iDisk. I did and it's empty, yet my web page look fine. I understand using iDisk if I wanted to share files with other or if I am using different computers. I just thought every file on my homepage had to be in iDisk for users to see my page.
Can anyone clarify? Thanks.

That's where I am confused. Let's say I have a link
to an MP3 file in iWeb. The file is in iTunes but
not in my iDisk. Is there a difference?
You don't need to worry about things you include from your hard drive from itunes or iphoto or elsewhere via the media browser or drag drop or Insert > Hyperlink > File. They are included in your site and copies are uploaded automatically.

Confusion about BI Publisher and Dashboards

Hi All,
I am new in BI EE. I create a report in BI publisher and after that I want to publish that report in BI Dashboards...Here my confusion is start, I create repository to the required schema,Now I need to build report again in BI answer?? and then publish that report in Dashboard ????
Please rectify my confusion I am very grateful to you...
Regards

Hello,
You dont need to confuse. To build the report in BI Answers Report you need to develop repository. To build the reposity you must aware of Datawarehouse modeling so you can build the repository very well. You can save those BI Answers Report. Create a new dashboard and just drag this report to your Dashboard section to run your report in the dashboard.
For BI Publisher its just a simple query reporting which not depend on any repository. You can create data source connection and build your own query or take help from BI Publisher query builder to built the query for you by selecting proper db objects and joins.

CS5 confusion about saving and previews

I'm adjusting to the recent upgrade to CS5 but have reached a hiccup. I'm on a Mac Pro (2010) with OS 10.6.4. Previously, when I've saved a file (whether it was a jpg, tiff, eps, png., psd...), a preview was created. If I double-clicked on it to open it, even if Photoshop wasn't opened, the document would open up in the native Photoshop software. Now, after saving a tif, jpg. or eps., upon double-clicking, the document opens up in the generic Macintoch preview window and will not initiate the Photoshop software. I checked my preferences for document handling and the "Always Save" in: Icon and Windows Thumbnail are checked. There is no longer a save in Macintosh Thumbnail, as in previous software versions. I hope this explains my full dilemma and that a member will see the discrepancy to help me out. Is there something I need to change that I can't recognize?
Thanks,
Al

I'm a bit confused by your explanation, is the problem that when you save the file it doesn't have a thumbnail? If so, are you running Photoshop 12.0.1? There was a fix on the 12.0.1 update to fix this.
If the problem is that when you double click on a file it doesn't open in Photoshop, then you just need to change a preference in Finder. Select the file you want (say, a .tif) and go to File>Get Info (or Command+I). On the "Open With:" option, choose Photoshop CS5 from the drop down menu. After that, click on the "Change all" button below it. You'll need to do that to all the extensions you want (.jpg, etc)
Hope this helps!

Confusion about shared objects...

Hi...
I'm building an application using JSP/Servlet technology and I've ecountered some behavior that is not that unexpected, but is something I can't seem to figure out how to get around.
I've been using two reference manuals over the last year, to learn JSP/Servlet development and I'm not sure that either one of them, do a very good job of explaining how to avoid the problem I'm seeing. (Or maybe they do, but I'm just too dense to figure it out.)
Both are O'Reilly manuals:
Java Servlet Programming - Jason Humber with William Crawford
Java Server Pages - Hans Bergsten
Anyway, I've tried to model my application using a MVC approach.
My controller servlet UserCtl.java is small and routes requests as a controller should.
My business logic is in a bean. UserBean.java This object has properties that represent the fields from my UserMaster table and corresponding setter/gettter methods. It also has methods to retrieve an individual user record, insert a record, update a record, delete a record and retrieve a list of records.
The scenario I'm experiencing is as follows:
I bring up my application in the browser on two different PC's.
I display the user list on each PC.
Now...
On each PC, I simultaneously click the Update User, selecting user 1 on pc 1 and user 2 on pc 2.
My application then, creates a record in a lock file, for each user record. This seems to work properly, even during the simultaneous click.
However...
When the update form is subseqently displayed, I have a situation where the form on each of the 2 pc's contains the same data.
I can verify that 2 different lock records were created, indicating that I did not click the same user by accident, however, the data in the form is clearly for only one of the users.
I've read the sections over and over and I feel like I understand their comments on concurrency and how the condition I'm seeing could occur, however, I've tried many things to overcome this and nothing seems to work.
Originally, I opened my JDBC database connection at the servlet level. I've subsequently tried doing it when I create the bean in the controller and subsequent to that, creating the connection object within the method that retrieves the user data inside the bean.
I've tried moving all my code into functions, so that any bean variables would be localized.
I've creating a bean from the JSP session bean object and then retrieving the record, and putting the bean back into the session object before moving to the update page.
Note... I've also enclosed my record retrieval code within a synchronize block.
I'm at a complete loss here. Nothing I do seems to work and I can consistently recreate this condition. Obviously, I can't move forward until I find out how to do this properly.
I'm disappointed in the Java Server Pages book, because the author encapsulated/wrapped all of his database i/o into his own database management routines.
This is a terrible practice for an author to perform. I understand the concept of why you would do that, however, it complicates learning the fundamentals first. I say show us how to do it the long way first, then show us how to improve on the implementation. Don't confuse an already complicated process with your own home-grown methodology.
Anyway... I digress. Can anybody give me any pointers or recommend a good book or web based example, that can show me how to overcome the issue I am encountering? My implementation is a straightforward, simple, approach. I am trying to grasp how this stuff works, without adding in all the extra stuff like tag libraries and XSLT, etc.
I just need to understand how to write a simple thread-safe application. I'll tackle the other stuff later. Oh... by the way... I have built the simple samples that overcome servlet class level counters that show the result differences between global variables at the servlet instance level versus reporting back localized variable values. I think that JDBC database access and/or bean creation, is more complex than that and that's where my problem is.
Any comments, pointers, references to simple samples, will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Brett

          You do not need a shared files system - that is just for
          convenience. You do need to have identical directory stuctures
          for all instances in the cluster.

GoldenGate Confusions

Hi all,
I have checked installers of GodelGate both in OTN and E-delivery.
I am just confused. There is separate GG for windows and there is also serapate GG for sqlserver? are they the same thing?
Similarly, there is GG for linux and there is separate GG for oracle for linux?
Suppose I have Sqlserver , Oracle 10g, and Oracle11g in my windows 2008 server. How many types of GoldenGate should I install? Assuming I want to replicate data to all 3 databases?
thanks again...

The short answer to your questions is as follows:
There is a version of GoldenGate for each OS and Database combination so you would download GoldenGate for SQL/Server on Windows 2008 Server, Oracle 10g on Windows 2008 Server and Oracle 11g on Windows 2008 Server. For a total of 3 different versions of GoldenGate installed on your machine.
I'd create 3 specific Oracle GoldenGate homes, one for for each version:
C:\u01\app\oracle\product\11.2.1\gghome_sqlserver
C:\u01\app\oracle\product\11.2.1\gghome_oracle10g
C:\u01\app\oracle\product\11.2.1\gghome_oracle11g
The long answer is as follows:
GoldenGate is very, very cool!
Basically your Extract and Replicat processes are 'magic' in that they are configured (via parameter files) the same (generally) for every database and operating system that is supported, but because they are compiled for each specific OS/Database configuration the GoldenGate team has done all the work of figuring out how to make an extract work against any database and a replicat work against any database. The extract pulls stuff out and (in general) writes it to a 'GoldenGate canonical format' which we then move across the network and write to the destination in the same canonical format. The replicat reads this canonical format and translates it into destination specific SQL DML (and/or DDL) statements.
So once you have learned how to configure GoldenGate for Oracle 10g on Windows, you can leverage that same knowledge for both Oracle 11g and SQL/Server (and DB2, and MySQL, etc...).
To enable this, the GoldenGate team compiles a specific version of GoldenGate for each OS and Database version.
Does that help?

Has confused, is confusing, will confuse

Hello,
I have experienced something very confusing. I am writting a fairly large application with nearly 10 files. The main entry of the app. is named EzTools. EzTools, from its static method entry point creates the application program called EzToolsFrame. In EzToolsFrame, I specify the look&feel as follow:
public EzToolsFrame(){
//setDefaultCloseOperation(EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
setDefaultLookAndFeelDecorated(true);
setUndecorated(true);
try{
     UIManager.setLookAndFeel(UIManager.getInstalledLookAndFeels()[0].getClassName());
     SwingUtilities.updateComponentTreeUI(this);
}catch(Exception ex){
     System.out.println(" not supported here...");
// then technical stuff here...
I compiled the project and executed it before trying to create an executable (.jar). The look&feel was totally different from the past hundreds I've seen after executing the project. It was metalic and frankly, pleasant looking. I immediately created the jar file and exited. Today when I compile and execute the project, the old look&feel is used instead of that cool one. When I execute the jar file, the cool one is used (partly because I created the jar when it was working fine). I dont know why today is different from yesterday now and I dont know how to get the cool look back. I could backtrace if I had changed the code after I created the jar file. But since then I didnt, I am lost. My system supports only 3 look&feel (metal-like,X-window-like and XP-like). However the nice metal-like model I have seen yesterday is completely different from the one I usually get.
This is becoming frustrating as I spend more time trying to get that cool look back instead of focusing on the important background work.
What could have been going on at that point of time ? How come for UIManager.setLookAndFeel(UIManager.getInstalledLookAndFeels()[0].getClassName()); I got a different look, and just for a moment?
Can someone give me clues or solutions ? please.
ps: I am using JCreator and the active project at the time of the "miracle" was named EzToolsFrame because the manifest was giving me trouble with the program entry point. Anyway, I changed it back and forth to EzTools and nothing is happening.
Thanks and sorry if it's confusing. It's hard to describe whats happening.

it was 9.8 a few minutes ago. I just got done
writting the 10th.
Thanks for the useful inputYou must be talking to foofoofoo. I didn't offer any input, much less useful input. I just wanted to satisfy my curiousity.
Good luck with your question.

Some concept confused for Azure Service Bus EventHub

Currently, I’m trying to use the Azure Service Bus Event hub and I have some concepts a little bit confused:
I have create an event hub (our requirement is send 10Kb data per seconds to the event hub), the hub include 10 partitions, then we receive the data using the
EventHubReceiver, when I create the instance for the EventHubReceiver, it need the
PartitionId, so I want to know which partitionId is needed?
I guess all the Partitions have the same data which I sended, is it right?
Is the PartitionId equals PartitionKey? My understanding is the PartitionId is the indicator for the Partitions in the Event Hub, the PartitionKey is the indicator for the device which send the data, so one Partition can contains many partitonIds,
is it right?
When we receive data from hub, we need set the Consumer Group, so what is the relationship between EventHub and Consumer group?
When we use the EventProcessorHost to receive data, we do not to set the PartitionId, so the data we got is the all PartitionData?
When we call the PartitionContext.CheckpointAsync(), the Event hub will do the things to release the Events(delete, clear or sth) by itself, we needn’t do it in our code,
is it right?
Is there a diagram to show the relationship for concepts of the EventHub?
Thanks a lot!

I'd ask them over here.

Multilevel Categories Dropdown - Absolutely Confusing development by SAP

Dear Friends,
On service request page, we have Multilevel categories ( multilevel from category modeler ) in DropDowns.
Now the Value -Key pair for the dropdown should have been CODE and CODETEXT from the Subject-Configurations.
But, for Categories , this is Code text is the subject code text but the KEY is some GUID.
Earlier in CRM2007, we used to have BTSUBJECT and related things to handle the SUBJECT and Reason codes but from CRM7.0 , this Category Modeler new things is introduced.
I dont understand why SAP has made it so much complecated.
Now my requirement is when a perticular category is selected, i need to show some messages to the IC AGENT, but now as the KEY is some GUID, i am unable to find what category is selected in the dropdown.
For example, say when category selected in 1st dropdown is - Emergency Maintainace , display message
" High Alert : Advice customer to call manager" ,
Technically "Emergency Maintaince" is stored in system as KATLOGART - ZM, CODEPROFILE -ZM1 , CODE -Z508 , CODETEXT- "Emergency Maintainace" ( table - QPCT),
but on WEB UI in Category Dropdown, for every text, they are assigning some GUID...this is insane !! because, if for code-text SAP would have maintianed codes only , like for dropdown DDLB-key = Z508 , DDLB-Value = "Emergency Maintainance" then i could have easily put my code as IF ddlb-key = 'Z508' . """"""DO SOMETHING""""""" . but now since SAP is maintaining it as DDLB - KEY = '4BF0414ED9D93D0FE10000000AF03717' (ie some guid) & ddlb-value= 'Emergency Maintaince' , I am unable to compare and put my code which is dependant on category selection .
Does anybody know , how can i retrieve the subject code (Z in thsi example) from this guid ? How how can i find what category is selected at runtime ?
Thanks & regards,
Suchita

Hi Suchita,
you are right - this use of the GUID is in this case not needed and confusing.
In our company we had the requirement to prefill the category with a default value.
For this we set the GUID in UI development - so we work with the GUID in coding. As we import our categorization schema from development to production the GUID is the same in all systems.
Kind regards

My iTunes library and metadata/ID3 tags issue

Since 2010, iTunes is the only media player I use to play music. My library consists of music purchased from the iTunes Store, CD rips and stuff many artists these days release as freebies on the internet to promote a new album. Also, M4A and MP3 are the only formats I use so far.
Since iTunes, I really got into editing my library's metadata tags by hand, in order to create a custom archive which serves my preferences best. I should mention that besides iTunes being the only software I use to play my music library, it's also the only software I use to edit their metadata. Also, before iTunes – when my library was on different media players – I never bothered with editing them.
A few days ago, I found how a lot of people in forums complain about the way iTunes edits and stores metadata. So, I experimented and moved a few of my songs to other media players after editing their tags within iTunes. And indeed the tags and/or artwork were often displayed messed up and/or incorrect, some times partially and some times completely.
Some people were referring to the version of the ID3 tags being the issue, while others suggested using the "convert ID3 tags" feature. I myself am a little bit confused. "Converting the ID3 tags" wasn't available for my M4A files and once I performed it for my MP3's I didn't know which setting I should apply or what version to choose. I chose one version randomly but I'm not sure what happened.
My goal is to make my music library able to play and display my custom metadata on the majority of the popular media players. I hope that firstly this is possible and that secondly it won't be a solution which requires me going through every single song individually.
I really hope that all those years work on my library wasn't for nothing.
I'm using a MacBook running Snow Leopard 10.6.8 and my iTunes version is 10.7
While my music library is more important that my iTunes version, I do like iTunes 10 more than 11.
I apologize for any grammar mistakes, since English is not my first language. Thank you all for your time and any suggestion is welcome.

Hello turingtest2 and thank you for your reply.
In response to "a possible cause of problems is multiple embedded tags", what exactly does that mean and how can I avoid doing it in the future?
Anything ripped with iTunes should get a single tag. If multiple tags in some of your older mp3 rips are the cause of the problems when you try to access the files elsewhere then you should apply the suggested remedy selectively, not to the whole library indiscriminately. Once fixed you shouldn't have the problem again unless you use different ripping software. If so check the options to ensure you generate a single ID3v2.3 tag. Downloads from elsewhere are pot luck.
If I use Convert ID3 Tags>None before converting to v2.3 as you suggested, how many times is "several times" and why do I have to do it more than once? Also, what are your thoughts on 'v2.3 vs. v2.4'?
Several is at least two, but more could be needed if a file has both v1 and v2 tags in multiple languages. If there are two tags, the first conversion to none should remove the first one, and the second conversion the second. Experiment, And stick to v2.3.
In response to "the process removes any embedded art but otherwise preserves the data that iTunes knows". All fields excluding cover art remain the same? Does that mean that I will have to start from scratch and apply new cover art individually for each album? That would be too time consuming given the fact that I embed custom art.
Yes, everything but artwork is held in the iTunes database and is restored with the final Convert ID3 Tags... v2.3. Use Doug's scripts SaveAlbumArtJpeg before you start and RestoreArtworkFromAlbumFolder afterwards to save and the restore your existing artwork.
Also, what happens with my M4A files' metadata? ID3 tags are only used for MP3's, right?
Yes, m4a/aac files have a different tag mechanism. Multiple ID3 tags is just one possible issue that you might have. You said:
So, I experimented and moved a few of my songs to other media players after editing their tags within iTunes. And indeed the tags and/or artwork were often displayed messed up and/or incorrect, some times partially and some times completely.
It might be worth going into some more detail about exactly what differences you noticed. iTunes can automatically associate (instead of embedding) artwork when it can match the album in the store which could be why some tracks didn't get artwork.

begin
select t.B_VAL into b from test6152 t where to_date(t.i_date, 'dd-mon-yy') = to_date(:i, 'dd-mon-yy');
return (b);
end;The this function is giving me an error. ORA-01403 No data found
Can anyone point out the error.

Today I restart my comp and run the report and ....Woah!
It runs without ant error!!!
I wonder what went wrong yesterday!

Confusion: Is biApps 11.1.1.7.1 requires configuration CSV lookup files?
