Creating so for executing external procedure(HP ANSI C)", version 8.1.15

Hi,
I am using HP-UX 11.0,Oracle 8.1.15(server) and HP ansi C A.11.01.20 language.
My goal is calling 'c' routine thru stored procedure.
My program "outputString.c" is :
#include <stdio.h>
void outputString(
char *path,
char *message)
FILE *file_handle;
file_handle = fopen(path, "w");
fprintf(file_handle, "%s\n", message);
fclose(file_handle);
My question is How compile "outputString.c" with HP ansi C (cc -XX -XX -XX... output.so outputString.c)??

Using an AIX archive file as a library for an external procedure.

I cannot use an archive file, created with the ar command, that contains a shared object that was created with the xlc and ld commands as a library for external procedures. I can use the shared object file created with the ld command as a library for an external procedure. Why would I encounter an invalid magic number and what is the resolution?

Using Fault handling framework for executing Database procedure

We have a requirement wereby we have API to be executed on Oracle DB which would return a code saying 0 or 1.
I meaning error.
Now with regards to exception handling we require that we receive remote fault we retry for 3 times & if not successful have a email sent out & a human intervention.
This can be easily taken care by having define this in Fault polciy.xml
Another requirement is when the API fails for some reason & we get returncode as 1.Now we would like ot invoke the same policy for this type of error.Although BPEL instance is not failed.But we can throw custom fault.
Now the APi's that we have can be called in 3 ways.
1.In each instance we call API exactly once
2.In each instance we call API in a loop for each record in message.Hence if 10 records are there in message & while executin 7th time it failed then how to handle reminaing records?
3.In each instance we call API only once but submit all 10 reocrds at once.And at same time 7th record fails then whats best way to handle this?
We realy want to use fault handling mechanism because it gives a lot of options of replay rethroew continue...but given the requirement can somebody point out a right way of using fault policy?
Thanks

U can archive the records in archive tables once the database adapter polls the data.

Make EXE for Pl/sql procedure

Hi all,
I have one Pl/sql procedure for which i want make EXE.
can we make EXE files for PL/sql procedures using ' Oracle Developer Tools for Visual Studio .NET'
Thank you.

Hi Al,
Can you tell me in steps how to create EXE for pl/sql procedure using C# console application.
I have one webservice link which i want to invoke and i have to put the webservice output in a saparate file.
I wrote Pl/sql procedure which invokes/consumes the webservice using UTL_HTTP and also placed the output of Webservice in a saparate file using UTL_FILE.
But i have to execute this procedure on a Workstation where there is No Oracle installed.
as you suggested using C# console application. Will this Procedure with UTL_FILE & UTL_HTTP packages run in that c# console application.
Thank you

Is there a way to execute a procedure referenced in an XML string?

The XML string can contain a stand-alone procedure/function or one within a package. The procedure/functions themselves may contain any number of inputs or outputs for procedures. I'm not sure how the procedure that will process this XML string will "know" the datatypes for the IN/OUT parameters for any given stored program. Does Oracle have any built-in mechanism that will execute stored procs in an XML, or would I have to write something that loops through the XML, extracting the proc names, parameters, and parameter values, then query the data dictionary for what type of OUT parameter data type should be used?
I am told that SQL*Server is able to execute procs reference in XML, so I'm assuming Oracle must have some sort of API to use as a gateway for executing a procedure.

Getting "ORA-28576: lost RPC connection to external procedure agent" for R scripts.

Hello,
I am trying R integration with OBIEE. As part of this, I have created a simple R script for a scatter plot. Below is the R script
begin
sys.rqScriptCreate('randomRedDots',
                     'function()
                        res <- 1:10
                        plot(1:100, rnorm(100), pch=21, bg="red", cex=2)
                        res
end;
I am testing this script in SQL Developer by executing the below sql:
select image
from table(rqEval(NULL,
                  'PNG',
                  'randomRedDots')
During these tests, very often, I get ORA-28576 error when I run the SQL. The complete error is:
ORA-28576: lost RPC connection to external procedure agent
ORA-06512: at "RQSYS.RQEVALIMPL", line 77
ORA-06512: at "RQSYS.RQEVALIMPL", line 74
28576. 00000 - "lost RPC connection to external procedure agent"
*Cause:    A fatal error occurred in either an RPC network connection,
           the extproc agent, or the invoked 3GL after communication had
           been established successfully.
*Action:   First check the 3GL code you are invoking; the most likely
           cause of this error is abnormal termination of the
           invoked "C" routine. If this is not the case, check for
           network problems. Correct the problem if you find it. If all
           components appear to be normal but the problem persists, the
           problem could be an internal logic error in the RPC transfer
           code. Contact your customer support representative.
However, if I re-run the SQL, I do not get this message. This happens at random.
Any pointers to why this error occurs?
Thanks,
Abhishek

Abhishek,
Please look for a core file in $ORACLE_HOME/hs/log and look for errors in the call stack associated with the core file.
Examining the errors will help identify the cause of the intermittent ORA-29576 error.

How do I create a new Itunes account for my external HD?

Hi. I am a graduate student with a huge amount of music files for academia. I store the academia music files on my external HD, since it will just take up too much space on my computer. I wanted to create a separate Itunes account just for my external HD music files. How do I go about doing this? I tried to set it up and created a new account, but it automatically synced to my computer Itunes and I ended up deleting all of my personal music, video and reading articles on my personal itunes account.

As a graduate student you will quickly learn the importance of exact terminology. I presume your colleague told you to copy the "iTunes folder". You can't copy just iTunes (well, you can, but it isn't easy). Saying "iTunes" on its own refers to the application itself, not the library.
You do not need to make a new account. This again gets confusing unless you tell us exactly what you did. As I said before, an "iTunes account" is something you log into to make a purchase from the iTunes Store. A "computer account" is a whole new user area on your computer and isn't made on a different hard drive. An "iTunes library" is a collection of files and folders that generate the window you see when you start the iTunes application.
I do not know how you are ending up with two icons on the dock. While it is possible to do that it isn't at all normal unless you somehow are running two copies of iTunes at the same time. That is exceedingly difficult to do and people have unsuccessfully tried and would like to know how you did it.
You can have two independent libraries and there won't be any crosssover from one to the other. I have four on my computer. Use the procedure I outlined earlier to create a second library and to switch between them.
I was a graduate student many years ago and one of the first things I learned to do so I didn't lose years of research was to make multiple backup copies of anything I generated by computer, especially before performing any major changes to the computer such as installing new software or substantial file rearrangement. I kept several copies in different buildings on campus and a copy at home in another part of town just in case the campus was wiped out by a disaster.

External procedure call for cobol programs

I'm trying to call cobol programs using external procedure calls. I followed metalink doc#119543.1 but when the cobol shared library is called from PL/SQL, the session hangs. I'm running Oracle 9.2.0.4 EE, Microfocus Server Express 2.2, C for AIX v6, and AIX 5.2 (64-bit). If you know how to get this working or you have a working test case, please post a reply. Thanks.

You know that there are several steps to it :
1.- Make a library from cobol a the source code in a file
2.- Check the listener parameters to call external procedures and the service in the client
3.- Make a library inside the database
4.- Create the procedure that is going to call the
procedure.
Did you do those steps?

Execute any procedure for developers

Hello,
our developers want the privilege "execute any procedure" because the self-programmed application needs execute on unknown procedures. (Oracle 10.2) It's the application-administrator-user on which the development has full access.
On AskTom I read, that "execute any procedure" is extremely powerful an should not be granted to normal users.
I would like to know, if this is only not recommended for O7_DICTIONARY_ACCESSIBILITY=true or under any circumstances.
Any ideas how we can find out, which procedures are used by this user? Or on the other hand, which are the risky elements from "execute any procedure"?
Any arguments against giving this privilege are welcome, I have to give a statement on this.
Thanks,
M.Hannibal

Ok. I just browsed through Asktom for this issue and it is true that there are NO risks highlighted over there after granting "EXECUTE ANY PROCEDURE" to a user.
Though, I would like to put forth following points.
1. Some of procedures/functions in SYS as not supposed to be used by the normal database users (results can be unpredictable)
2. Upon grant of this privilege, the user can execute procedure of any schema in the database. This can be problematic if an user of PAYROLL schema starts executing procedures of FINANCE schema and change all accounts (kind of) related information.
In your situation, you can handle this by creating a DDL trigger in the schema where the procedure will be created. Via trigger, grant execute on this procedure to the user under which the application is going to run.
Thus you will have control over the procedure execution and you can easily track down the problem if somehting goes wrong (as will then you know who all can execute a particular procedure).
