Creating a trace file in oracle 9i

Hi,
I would like to genrate a trace file in oracle 9i for a single statement.
Can anyone let me know how to do it.

How to create the trace file using run_report_object at runtime

Dear All
using :
Oracel Application Server 10g
Oracle Database 11g
Windows XP/sp3
I'm using run_report_object to call a report inside the form. THis report is running OK from reports builder, however it's too slow when run from Application server.
How Can I create a trace file (at runtime) that contains the time spent in sql and formating the layout of the report ??
Here is My code :
repid := find_report_object('report5');
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_FILENAME,'INVOICE.REP');
v_url :='paramform=no';
v_url := v_url||' FROM_NO=' || :PRINT_BLOCK.FROM_NO ;
v_url := v_url ||' TO_NO=' || :PRINT_BLOCK.TO_NO ||' FROM_DATE=' || v_from_date ||' TO_DATE='|| v_to_date ||' NO_DATE=' ;
v_url := v_url ||:PRINT_BLOCK.NO_DATE||' IDENT=' ||:PRINT_BLOCK.IDENT_NO||' REPORT_HEADING='''||V_REPORT_HEADING||'''' ;
v_url := v_url||' COMPANY_NO='||:global.company_no;
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_OTHER,v_url);
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_SERVER,:GLOBAL.INV_REPORT_SERVER_NAME);
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_DESFORMAT,'pdf');
v_rep := RUN_REPORT_OBJECT(repid);
IF rep_status = 'FINISHED' THEN
V1:='/reports/rwservlet/getjobid'||substr(v_rep,instr(v_rep,'_',-1)+1);
WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT('/reports/rwservlet/getjobid'||substr(v_rep,instr(v_rep,'_',-1)+1)||'?server='||REPORT_SERVER_NAME,'_blank');
END IF;
Thanks a lot

Slow running reports often are not the result of a flawed report, but rather a flawed configuration. For example:
1. If you call your reports (from Forms) via the default or inProcess Reports Server, often because startup time is slow, it will appear that it took too long for the report to be delievered. Using a stand-alone Rep Server is the preferred way to do this.
2. If your Forms application makes numerous calls to RRO (RUN_REPORT_OBJECT), this can tend to result in what might appear as a memory leak (although it is not). The result is delayed processing because of the excessive memory use. This problem has been overcome in Forms/Reports 11 by the use of JVM pooling. However in v10 enabling "6i compatibility" mode is the way to overcome the issue. See Note 266073.1
3. If the report runs fine from the Builder and it is connecting to the same db as when you run it from App Server, the issue is unlikely a db problem. However, if you want to look anyway, enable sqlnet tracing.
4. To enable Reports tracing and investigate other tuning options, refer to the Reports 10 documentation:
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/B14099_11/bi.1012/b14048/pbr_tune.htm
Almost forgot to mentioned this one....
If you are using a v11 db with App Server 10, you will probably want to consider reviewing Note 1099035.1 as it discusses an issue related to performance with such a configuration.

pls guide with best practiceIn 11g, there is an extensive tracing that happens for the reasons best known to Oracle only. But if you want to disable it, Coskan had published a small post mentioning an undocumented parameter(which means you must think twice before using it) to disable it- disablehealth_check* .

System State dumped to trace file e:\oracle\admin\udump\rbidev_ora_2864.trc
What should i do to resolve this issue?
Database : 10.2.0.2.0
OS version : Microsoft Windows 2003 Enterprise Server Service Pack 2 ( 32-bit)

Ankit,
These errors come from multiple reasons.Most of them areeither due to some bugs which are in Oracle code.Now I am sure you would agree that Oraclewont publish the details of the code so that dbas can do something about the errors.Moreover,just because Oracle wants dbas to work upon these errors and troubleshoot them,oracle has made lookup tools in Metalink specifically so that dbas can look there and work upon these errors.
You are sayig that Oracle has not published error information.There is so much about working of Oracle which we don't know and chances are very less that will ever come to know.
Just my 2 cents to make the point clear.

Creating trace file in oracle 10g forms

hii there,
I have developed an application in oracle 10g. but it's too slow . Now i have to trace forms . How can trace oracle forms.
please send it in details as early as possible. I don't know about this trace file generation.
-----Sachin

Hi,
To run SQL trace for a form :
a. Get to the point in the form where you want to turn trace on.
For example, if the problem occurs on the commit, wait until you are
ready to commit, THEN turn trace on.
b. Turn tracing on. In GUI versions: Help - Tools - Trace, enable tracing.
c. Execute the steps you want to trace.
d. Turn tracing off. In GUI versions: Help - Tools - Trace, disable tracing.
The trace file will be written to the subdirectory specified in the
'user_dump_dest' parameter in the INIT.ORA file.

Problem in control file created through LKM File to Oracle (SQLLDR)

I have a fixed file ABC.txt & it has three fields/columns of length ,C1:= 4, C2 :=10 & C3:=6 & I have to use LKM File to Oracle (SQLLDR) to load data into oracle target table.
I recieved the following error at step CALL SQLLDR in the KM
"org.apache.bsf.BSFException: exception from Jython: Traceback (innermost last):
File "<string>", line 3, in ?"
Then I checked the control file log & found that the position start value & end value was not defined in control file which is created automatically by LKM
SQL*Loader-350: Syntax error at line 14.
Expecting positive integer, found ":".
     C1_C1     POSITION(:), "
The control file created by ODI is & it's missing the position value.

Does any one know why the position value is not created in the control file .
Edited by: neeraj_singh on Mar 3, 2011 1:25 AM

Hi Neeraj,
It is happening because you have not selected the mapping execution area as STAGUING .
Open your interface , click on each and every column of your target datastore , make sure the "Execute On" is marked on "Staging Area".
Then run your interface.

You can also do :
SELECT * FROM V$DIAG_INFO;to see informations about diagnostic locations of that instance.

Create Custom response file for Oracle 9i client

I am trying to create a customized response file for oracle 9i client installation,
setup -record -destinationFile C:\response_files\install_oracle
i replaced setup with the path and i followed the instruction correctly, after the installation is done i do get two response files in the location
Then i created a batch file to run the response file , it installed , but when i check the compmonents what ever is installed, it never recorded all the components which i installed during the time of RECORD mode
is there any thing i need to do for record all the components
Please advice
Thank you
Ravi

i have oracle client 9.2.0.1.0
We need to run both the run time installation and custom installation
when i did record i was able to get only the run time installation, the components which i customized, i never got, after when i try to install the response file, it never installa all the components
what should i do to make both runtime and custom to be done in one response file,
i have a .rsp files which do install the custom with all installtion, but we also need
under programs, ORACLE INSTALLTION PRODUCTS and under that HOME SELCTOR, UNIVERSAL INSTALLER, missing.
let meknow how i can add this to my .rsp files which installs perfectly with custom installtion, if you have any customised .rsp files which will fill my needs, can any one post it

Creating sample XML file from Oracle Reports

I did a search and could not find a good answer - hopefully this is not a dumb question.
We are getting around to evaluating this tool, and I have looked at the whitepapers/user guides. I viewed the flash demo on how to build a template using the add-in. All of this seems really easy to do once you have the XML file generated.
We have a custom report that outputted to PDF. Its a very simple report, so I went ahead and switch the output type to XML. When I go to view the file through the View Output button, it gives me an error about not being able to view it - the error says it cannot display the XML data with the current style sheet - gives a line number for the temporary file and thats about it.
Question is this - should I be able to see the XML file through concurrent manager, or do I physically have to go the ouput directory and grab the file? I understand the whole process of hooking up a template to a concurrent program once I create it, but I figure having the data would make creating the template easier. Sort of a chicken and the egg things.
Thanks!

That sounds like a browser issue.
once you flip the output to XML the 'Output' file from the concurrent manager will now be XML, try doing a save as rather than opening directly or use Tools>Copy file.
Regards, Tim

How can reduce generate trace file.

Hi all,
how can reduce generate trace file.

If you cannot disable the tracing for some reason, consider setting maximum file size for the dump.

How to change trace file location in Oracle Fusion Middleware

Hi all,
I would like to know how to change the location of the trace file in Oracle Fusion Middleware - Report Server 11g ?
I notice there is logging.xml file in $ORACLE_HOME/config/ReportServerComponenent/logging.xml. In the xml file, it did specify the location of the diagnostic file and other log files.
Is it the correct way to reconfigure the location of the log file? I havent try it though. :D
Thanks.

Hi Fleix,
For additional instructions for Release 11i, see Note.167635.1 and Note.150168.1.
For additional instructions for Release 11.0.3 and 10.7, see Note.148982.1 and Note.135715.1.
a. Append the following to the end of the URL used to login to the Oracle Applications:
?play=&record=collect&log=/tmp/oracle.FRD.log
** Note: The self service login URL will not work for creating FRD trace files. You may need to talk to your technical team to get the URL that accesses the forms server directly.
b. If the URL to logon to 11i applications is:
http://machine:9603/dev60cgi/f60cgi
Then the following label needs to be included:
?play=&record=collect&log=/tmp/'file_name'.frd
For example to create frd for above url log in to application as
http://machine:9603/dev60cgi/f60cgi?play=&record=collect&log=/tmp/4764802.992.frd
c. Now log into the application and go directly to the form with the problem and perform the actions which generate the error.
Once the error has been generated and cleared, immediately log out of the application so no additional diagnostics are captured.
d. The diagnostics will be written to the file specifed after "log=". In the example, this would be /tmp/4764802.992.frd
e. After reproducing the issue, log on the server side of the instance and go to the directory to /tmp (cd tmp)
f. Retrieve the frd file: /tmp/4764802.992.frd
This file contains all the details about built-in programs, triggers, procedures in a FORM
Thanks,
Anchorage :)

Too many trace files apparently created on behalf of Health Monitor

Every ~10 minutes I see two pairs of trc+trm files that appear to be nothing more than a nuisance. A nuisance because if you don't get rid of them, then commands such as "ls -lt | head" take too long to complete. Even after setting disablehealth_check=true, the files still keep coming. The only thing I can find is a correspondence between the rows in v$hm_run and these trace files.
The RDBMS appears to be working fine and there's nothing in the alert log that would explain their existence. Having said that, I'll go ahead and admit that I don't these are false negatives but it sure looks like they are.
Below is a sample of the two trace files in the 4 files that get created every 10 minutes. Thanks.

The corresponding data from v$hm_run (and the view definition itself) show that status = 5 means 'COMPLETED'. The interesting thing is that RUN_MODE.RUN_MODE is 'REACTIVE'. This seems to say that it's not a proactive thing. But if something is reacting, then why is it showing no error (i.e., ERR_NUMBER = 0)?
