Database connection dailog opens with missing fields

Greetings all,
I have one user who has a couple reports that do not display all the fields in the database connection dialog box when she attempts to refresh the data in a report.
Normally this dialog box opens with the Datasource, UserID (of the last person who saved data with the report) and Database prefilled, so only the Password needs to be completed or the UserID changed.
For her (and this is only happening on a couple reports), only the Datasource text box is visible. The datasource is correctly filled in but in order to see the other fields, she needs to click the next button and then click back. Then all three fields - UserID, Password and Database need to be entered.
This only started in the past couple months and so far is only occuring with 2 reports, both new. Other new reports are acting normally.
We are using Crystal Reports XI with the latest service packs. Our reports are in a shared folder on the network. So far I have not been able to duplicate this behavior on anyone else' machine.
Any idea's on what might be causing this or how to correct it?
TIA,
Bob

I would check that persons database client and/or version of MDAC. May also be a permission issue on tables.

  • ORA-10827: database must be opened with MIGRATE option

    Hi,
    We are trying to migrate an Oracle 8.1.7 database to an Oracle 9i(9.2) database. I moved all the database files to the appr folder and I created a new instance using:
    oradim -new -sid PROD -intpwd Oracle -startmode a -pfile C:\oracle\OraDb\Neuropace\initPROD.ORA.
    I checked the alter log file and I get the following error:
    ORA-10827: database must be opened with MIGRATE option.
    How should one go about migrating a database(different versions). I went ahead with the migration. I opened the database using
    alter database open resetlogs migrate.
    But when i log into the database, I get an internal code error.
    Any pointers?.

    You must not open normally your database after an upgrade, in short the method is
    1) startup migrate
    2) run the upgrade script (which one depends on your old database version)
    For step-by-step instructions see
    http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/B10501_01/server.920/a96530/upgrade.htm#1009200
    'alter database open resetlogs migrate' is only applicable to upgrades from version 7 to 9.2, hopefully your database is not corrupted now.

    I just opened my database : startup upgrade and it started up.
    But couldn't perform a backup.As you said you have started the DB in upgrade mode and trying to take the backup of database. I think you can't take the backup of DB in upgrade mode.Please shut it down first and start up it in normal mode and do the backup.
    Which backup strategy you are following?
    What you exactly want to do upgrade the database or trying to take a bcakup?

  • Database connectivity toolkit problem with WINDOWS VISTA and Microsoft jet 4.0 provider

    Hi again,
    I'm experiencing a problem with Database connectivity toolkit and Microsoft Jet 4.0 provider (MS ACCESS mdb database).
    I was able to get my application to work properly on my PC: WINDOWS XP PROFESSIONAL, VERSION 2002, SERVICE PACK 3 and Msjet40.dll ver. 4.0.9511.0 (Windows XP SP3 and Security Bullettin MS08-028).
    The same connectivity toolkit seems to have problems (although I didn't get any error dialog) on a laptop with WINDOWS VISTA ULTIMATE, SERVICE PACK 2 and Msjet40.dll ver. 4.0.9755.0.
    Does anyone have an idea whether it is a sort of compatibility issue or a different thing?
    Would it be possible to include my DLLs into the installer in such a way LabVIEW application calls those DLLs instead of the ones it finds on the host PC?
    Thanks a lot. Any suggestion or advice very welcome and appreciated.

    I ran into this with Windows7 64 but, could not get the jet 4.0 to work.  Endnd up dumping access and used sql server express, its free, and all my code worked fine, just used a different UDL to connect.  I wasted lots of time trying to find a way of getting the jet4.0 to work with 64bit windows.

  • Database connection remains open after close being called

    I am using oracle OC4J as my application server. I am not using connection pool and I am using non-pooled datasource to get connection. The database connection is made at runtime and then closed. I want to test if the users' connection sessions have been killed after they logout the application. But when I checked the table v$session in the database, it shows one connection remaining. I checked my program, the close method has been called. Does anybody know the solution?

    Hi Chen,
    This is just a suggestion for something to try -- only if you haven't
    already tried it, that is!
    Try running OC4J in "debug" mode. Here are details on how to do that:

  • Generic UDF to handle empty contexts and contexts with missing fields

    Hi,
    I have been trying to get my head around a UDF for this for a while, but cannot find the solution. I''l start by showing input structure, and expected target structure (subset of an invoice IDoc with 4 line items):
    SOURCE:
    E1EDK01 (0..1)
    E1EDP01
    ---POSEX = 1
    ---E1EDP05
    KOTXT (qualifier) = Z1
    BETRG (amount) = 200,00
    ---E1EDP05
    KOTXT = Z2
    BETRG = 300,00
    ---E1EDP19...
    E1EDP01
    ---POSEX = 2
    ---E1EDP05
    KOTXT = Z1
    ---E1EDP05
    KOTXT = Z2
    BETRG = 400,00
    ---E1EDP19...
    E1EDP01
    ---POSEX = 3
    ---E1EDP05
    KOTXT = Z2
    BETRG = 500,00
    ---E1EDP19...
    E1EDP01
    ---POSEX = 4
    ---E1EDP19...
    TARGET:
    Line
    ---PosId = 1
    ---Price = 200.00
    Line
    ---PosId = 2
    ---Price = N/A
    Line
    ---PosId = 3
    ---Price = N/A
    Line
    ---PosId = 4
    ---Price = N/A
    I want the price from E1EDP05/BETRG where KOTXT = Z1to be set for each line. As you can see the source structure can be split in 4 cases:
    1. for some line items there exist multiple E1EDP05-segments with one of them qualifier Z1 and one corresponding amount field. This is the "perfect" structure and easy to handle.
    2. some line items contains E1EDP05 with qualifier Z1 with no BETRG. Problem-case
    3. some line items contains no E1EDP05-segments with qualifier Z1, but contains other E1EDP05-segments. Can be solved.
    4. some line items contains no E1EDP05-segments at all. Can be solved.
    I need to (I believe) set the context of the KOTXT and BETRG to E1EDP01 since I want one value per line item, irrespective of how many E1EDP05-segments exist per line item. In cases where no value can be found for relevant qualifier (Z1) or no E1EDP05-segments exist for a line item I want a default value to be set (N/A).
    My problem is that all these different cases might occur in the same file, and they mess up the values in each context, leading to wrong BETRG to be picked in some cases (where case 2 exist) since mapWithDefault cannot be used (context contains value for other qualifier).
    Do you know how to handle all these cases?
    Any pseudo-code for an UDF?
    Many thanks for your help!

    Hi Shweta!
    Thanks a lot, your idea didn't completely solve my problem, but pointed me in the right direction and gave me some valuable ideas:)
    For anyone wondering how it is done, I solved it by using your suggested two inputs, along with a third input (constant) which functions as default value for contexts where value-field is missing for a specific qualifier, or in case no segments with desired qualifier exists for a context.
    My mapping now looks like the following (where KOTXT is qualifier and KRATE is value field) for the 3 inputs:
    KOTXT(Context = E1EDP01) \
                                equalsS -->
    Constant(qualifier value) /
    KOTXT(Context = E1EDP05) \
                                equalsS  \
    Constant(qualifier value) /            ifWithoutElse --> removeContexts -->
               KRATE (Context = E1EDP05) /
    Constant(default value) -->
    Then these 3 inputs goes into the following UDF (queue function):
    int j=0;
    boolean contextDone = false;
    for(int i=0;i<a.length;i++)
         if(a<i>.equals("true"))
              if(b[j].equals(ResultList.SUPPRESS))
                   result.addValue(c[0]);
              else
                   result.addValue(b[j]);
              contextDone = true;
              j=j+1;
         if(a<i>.equals(ResultList.CC))
              if (contextDone)
                   contextDone = false;
                   result.addValue(ResultList.CC);
              else
                   result.addValue(c[0]);
                   result.addValue(ResultList.CC);
    This results in a target node created for each context, where context relates to each line item in this case, where each value is either a default value or the value corresponding to the qualifier. This works in all cases where:
    1. there are no segments containing relevant qualifier
    2. there are segments with relevant qualifier, but missing value field
    3. there are segments with relevant qualifier and value field
    Thanks a lot again, Shweta, for guiding me!

  • Manual Standby Database not in sync with missing archivelogs

    Hello,
    OS: Solaris
    DB: Oracle 11.2.0.1 EE
    Not Using ASM or RAC
    I have a Production database that is in archivelog mode and a Standby DR server.
    Both servers (Prod, Standby) have exact same structure and db name/version.
    We manually scp archive logs and recover them to a manual standby database via SQL Scripts "cron". (I.E. set autorecovery on; recover standby database;)
    We recently got out of sync with our log files and have not been applying them to the standby. As part of Prod Maintenance, these log files were deleted and are not available anymore.
    I've tried several ways to "rebuild" our standby database. I have tried to Shutdown prod, backup all the db files and scp them to standby, re-create standby controlfile and startup mount and recover standby.
    Every time I try to apply a new archive log via recover standby, these are the errors:
    ORA-00279: change 211077622 generated at 1/27/2012 12:18:42 needed for thread 1

    ORA-01110: data file 1: '/oradevices/PROD/oraPRODsystem1.dbf'
    When I check v$log_history, the new logs have not been applied.
    I've also tried the "Restore from incremental backup via SCN" method with same results.
    Is there a way to re-create the standby clean and ensure that the log chain that is currently broken gets fixed or reset?
    I would eventually like to get DataGuard in here, but that's not the case at the moment.
    Thanks for your suggestions.
    -Dav

    if you are using the cold backup to create the standby database, Check that have you followed the following steps or not.
    1. remove
    all the datafiles and controlfiles from the standby database.
    2. Create a new standby controlfile of the production for standby using the following cmd
    'alter database create standby controlfile as 'Location';'
    3. move the new controlfile to standby database server location as specified in initialization parameter file.
    4. Restore all the datafiles to its appropriate loaction which was taken through cold backup.
    5. startup nomount
    6. alter database mount standby database;
    7. recover standby database.
    scp the archive log sequence that is asked by the database, from production.
    You can try this steps.

  • PDF file opening with blank fields - the field values are not populated.

    Recently, our users have been facing this issue, "data not populating in the PDF fields".
    We are using FDF in PHP to load the PDF templates and apply the data to the PDF fields. This works fine on many adobe versions but showing empty fields in few adobe versions. For e.g It worked fine with Adobe Reader 10.1.3 but did not work in 11.0.
    This has been critical now as it is showing empty fields in IE11. Can you please help me overcome this issue.
    Thanks!

    All I can suggest is to try the latest Reader versions, i.e. 10.1.11 or 11.0.8.

  • Project opens with missing sound

    Using Premiere Pro CS4.
    So I have a project with footage already imported. The footage has audio. Premiere can play this audio just fine.
    However - sometimes, when I open one of these projects, Premiere has randomly decided not to play the audio for some of the clips. I can 'fix' the problem by closing premiere, deleting all the temp files, and reopening the file, thus forcing Premiere to re-conform everything (at least I think that's why it works).
    I am deleting the audio created files as I go as I am editing some 400 projects so I'm trying to remove clutter (I'm not rendering anything right now, so there's no real reason to have all the extra files). I DO, however, wait for each project to finish conforming before I touch anything, so I don't know why it keeps randomly dropping audio and my work around is costing me a great deal of time (and is just VERY ANNOYING).
    Thanks for any suggestions.

  • DB- put blocking when database opened with DB_READ_UNCOMMITTED

    Hi,
    Please excuse me if I am missing something obvious, but is there any reason why a DB->put would block just because a database file is opened with the DB_READ_UNCOMMITTED?
    I am using Berkeley DB 5.1.19 and I have been having some cursors block so I have added the DB_READ_UNCOMMITTED flag to my database file opens.
    With the flag on the first time I try and put a record it just blocks indefinitely. When I remove the flag the put goes through no problem.
    Gerard

    I have been doing some testing on this and have found the following.
    (1) I open the database with a DB_READ_UNCOMMITTED flag
    (2) I create a cursor with the DB_READ_UNCOMMITTED flag and read the file
    (3) I close the cursor with no problems (RC=0)
    (4) I try a put operation and it blocks
    (5) I run db_deadlock from the command line and the put returns DB_LOCK_DEADLOCK
    If I change the cursor to be opened with DB_READ_COMMITTED I get the same situation.
    If I comment out the DB_READ_UNCOMMITTED from the database open put does not block (as DB_READ_UNCOMMITTED is not honored for cursor if DB_READ_UNCOMMITTED is not specified for cursor).
    If I remove the DB_READ_UNCOMMITTED or DB_READ_COMMITTED from the cursor the put also does not block.
    From my reading the use of DB_READ_UNCOMMITTED should reduce the chance of a deadlock not guarantee a deadlock. Is this a bug or am I missing something.
    BTW, the doco for cursor open says that DB_BULK is an option but there is no DB_BULK defined in db.h.
    Any help greatly appreciated.

    TRACE_LEVEL_CLIENT = ON
    SQLNET.INBOUND_CONNECT_TIMEOUT=20
    NAMES.DEFAULT_DOMAIN = na.pg.com
    NAME.DEFAULT_ZONE = na.pg.com
    SQLNET.CRYPTO_SEED = "kdg:9yv2$-plo*u6b2x!"
    NAMES.DIRECTORY_PATH = (ONAMES,TNSNAMES)
    NAMES.PREFERRED_SERVERS =
    (ADDRESS_LIST =
    (ADDRESS =
    (COMMUNITY = TCP.xy.zz.com)
    (PROTOCOL = TCP)
    (Host = namesrv1.xy.zz.com)
    (Port = 1522)
    (ADDRESS =
    (COMMUNITY = TCP.xy.zz.com)
    (PROTOCOL = TCP)
    (Host = namesrv2.xy.zz.com)
    (Port = 1522)
    I've placed my TNSNAMES and SQLNET file in the same folder having the instant client files and I've set my TNSADMIN,LD_LIBRARY_PATH and PATH environmental variable to the folder location.
    Note:I'm able to connect to the database using SQLplus.

    These days I very seldom use ODBC for Oracle - most recently it was simply to get Enterprise Architect to "talk" to Oracle. I never used it for my client applications (unlike in the fast distant past), so what I know about ODBC is seriously outdated.
    Even so, a few comments. :-)
    Have you tried creating a user DSN, in case a system DSN somehow works different environment wise?
    The above error description sounds like the original TCP connection was successful (i.e. it is not a host unknown or not reachable error). Subsequent packets seem to fails.
    To confirm, run the listener on namesrv1.xy.zz.com with logging enabled and have a look at the listener.log - does it show a connection being accepted/handled from your PC when you use the ODBC DSN?
    Have you tried the Oracle ODBC drivers? When getting EA connected I had problems (also with Instant Client) and Microsoft ODBC driver for Oracle. Downloaded and installed the Oracle ODBC driver and it worked just fine first time around.
    PS. You should raise this topic on the Instant Client Forum instead.

  • I want form to open with fields automatically highlighted.

    I am creating a form that, when opened, I want the fill-in fields to automatically be highlighted. When I open the form in Acrobat, there is checkbox at the upper right side to check - it says "Highlight Fields" - by default, it is not checked.  Is there a way to have it checked when the user opens the form?
    Thanks!

    I did try that yesterday (I changed the drop down menu from
    FormCalc to JavaScript).  It didn't work - right away - and I didn't save my work, but about 5 or 10 minutes later the form did start opening with the fields highlighted...without the code...
    What's strange is that every form I opened after that (forms I didn't create) was defaulted as highlighted.
    I emailed the form to a coworker and it was highlighted as a default even though I did not include any code to do that...
    Now this morning, I opened the form again, the code is not there - as I was playing around looking at different options -  going back and forth from the work area to the pdf preview - all of a sudden the highlighting was off. The ONLY thing I did was turn on the line numbering for the XML source view. I checked other pdf forms including ones I did not create and now the fields are NOT highlighted.
    Has anyone ever heard of any of this happening? Any idea of what's going on?
