Database Contest Participation

Hello Everyone,
die German IT magazine CT calls for an database contest. The principle
is similar to the J2EE PetShop. They just use an DVD Store implementation
from Dell as reference.
I am currently searching for people who want to participate in that contest
as a team using Oracle technology. I have put an modified version online
(http://www.fm-berger.de/ds2_lazymonkey/). That page also provides links
about that contest.
My implementation uses:
- JavaServerPages with OC4J
- Oracle 10g R2 as Database
- and I also use PL/SQL
If you are interested, patches and comments are welcome all the time.
Bye
Frank

If you have specific questions, you should ask in
macromedia.flash.actionscript - but what you want to do is
easy. Have a look
at the LoadVars class, especially the sendAndLoad method.

Does anyone know of an iPad app that can lock the iPad after a period of months (i.e., 6 months)?

Does anyone know of an iPad app that can lock the iPad after a period of months (i.e., 6 months)? I am looking to give ipads to contestant participants and need a way to automatically lock the device once the set duration (measured in days, weeks, months or years) is complete. Does anyone know of an iPad app that locks the device after a period longer than 24 hours (ike most parental control apps)??
Thanks for any help!!

It's called "SelfControl". It can be a little hard to learn to use but it's worth the effort.

ALBPM Process Administrator Login

We are using ALBPM with WebLogic 9.2 and have setup a directory service with a SQL 2005 server. The tables are created and there is one row in the participant table. However, when we try to login to Process Administrator, we always get an error msg;
Login incorrect. Detail:Verify that the information provided is correct. If you cannot solve the problem, check with your administrator. Technical detail:URL: [mssqlserver2005://AskMartyDev:1433/database=BPM] Participant: [bpmdbuser] Reason: [invalid user or password].
Where mssqlserver2005://AskMartyDev:1433/database=BPM is the connection string to SQLServer and bpmdbuser is the login name we created when set up the directory service. What user name and password should we use to login? Any help is greatly appreciated.

Check the following:
1) in the directory.properties file there is a jdbc-user and password, these are used to connect to SQLServer, check that they match the password in the DB
2) when you created the Directory (in Admin Center) you were asked for an administrators password, if you did not enter it, then it is the same value as the jdbc user that you used to create the tables. This user/pass is also writen in the directory.properties, but in the presets participant property.
Hope it helps.

Oracle deadlock - how to use "synchronised" keyword in a transaction?

Hi,
I use WL6.1 SP4, Oracle 8.1.6, with some Java objects which execute a
lot
of SQL queries (mixed update, insert and select) using plain JDBC
calls,
and Weblogic connection pools. These objects are called by servlets.
I experienced recently deadlocks when two users call the object at the
same
time (See error below).
I execute the queries using "synchronized" keyword in the following
way:
synchronized (this)
conConnection.setAutoCommit(false);
executeTransaction(myStatement);
conConnection.commit();
executeTransaction is overriden in sub-classes and is the method which
executes
all the queries.
It calls methods in other objects. These methods are not declared as
synchronized.
1) Should they?
2) Should I use the keyword "synchronized" in another way?
3) This part of code is also called when I do only "select"
statements. I guess
it should only be synchronized when we do "update" and "insert" which
could lead
to a deadlock?
4) Do you have any idea why this deadlock occurs as I use the
"synchronized"
keyword, and one thread should wait until the other one has finished?
Thanks for any idea,
Stéphanie

Hi Stepanie,
I'd try to group update statement together. Usually it helps.

Thanks for your answer.
In the case you describe, is there a way to ensure that tx-2 waits for
tx-1
to be finished before beginning?
My transaction which causes the problem is the following (simplified):
UPDATE tableA SET islast=0 WHERE externalid=myid;
for (int i=0; i< aVector.size(); i++) {
INSERT INTO tableA (id, islast, ranking, externalid) (SELECT
SEQ_tableA.nextval, 1, 0, myid);
UPDATE tableA SET ranking = /*calculated ranking */
WHERE externalid=myid AND islast=1;
UPDATE tableB ....
commit;
tx-1 and tx-2 execute this transaction at the same time. tx-1 begins
The deadlock appears when tx-2 executes the second UPDATE tableA
query.
I don't see how I can avoid to execute these two update queries, so if
I can find another way to prevent deadlock, it would be great!

of your java objects. It has to do with the order in which you accessDBMS
data. You are getting ordinary DBMS deadlocks, which are caused when
two DBMS connections each have a lock the other wants, in order toproceed.
The DBMS will quickly discover this and will kill one transaction inorder to
let the other one proceed:
time 0: tx-1 and tx-2 have started.....
time 1: tx-1: update tableA set val = 1 where key = 'A'
time 2: tx-2: update tableB set val = 2 where key = 'B'
time 3: tx-1: update tableB set val = 1 where key = 'B' (waitsbecause tx-2 has the row
locked)
time 4: tx-2: update tableA set val = 2 where key = 'A' (waitsbecause tx-1 has the row
locked)
This is a deadlock. The solution is to organize your application code sothat every
transaction accesses the data in the same order, eg: update tableAfirst, then update tableB.
This will prevent deadlocks.

How to create loosely coupled transaction branches with DBMS_XA ?

Hello,
I use DBMS_XA to start several sessions in the same database instance participating a global transactions. The local transaction branches are tightly coupled.
Do you know a way (Oracle 11.2) for the branches to be loosely coupled by using dbms_xa in one-only instance ?
Best Regards,
Gregory

For non XA datasource create a JDBC Connection with data source class
oracle.jdbc.pool.OracleDataSource
For xa datasource create a JDBC connection with data source class

Commit in oracle

Hi,
What is two phase commit in Oracle?
Thnx
Sravan

The Two-Phase Commit Mechanism
In a distributed database, Oracle must coordinate transaction control over a network and maintain data consistency, even if a network or system failure occurs.
A distributed transaction is a transaction that includes one or more statements that update data on two or more distinct nodes of a distributed database.
A two-phase commit mechanism guarantees that all database servers participating in a distributed transaction either all commit or all undo the statements in the transaction. A two-phase commit mechanism also protects implicit DML operations performed by integrity constraints, remote procedure calls, and triggers.
The Oracle two-phase commit mechanism is completely transparent to users who issue distributed transactions. In fact, users need not even know the transaction is distributed. A COMMIT statement denoting the end of a transaction automatically triggers the two-phase commit mechanism to commit the transaction. No coding or complex statement syntax is required to include distributed transactions within the body of a database application.
The recoverer (RECO) background process automatically resolves the outcome of in-doubt distributed transactionsdistributed transactions in which the commit was interrupted by any type of system or network failure. After the failure is repaired and communication is reestablished, the RECO process of each local Oracle database automatically commits or rolls back any in-doubt distributed transactions consistently on all involved nodes.
In the event of a long-term failure, Oracle allows each local administrator to manually commit or undo any distributed transactions that are in doubt as a result of the failure. This option enables the local database administrator to free any locked resources that are held indefinitely as a result of the long-term failure.
If a database must be recovered to a point in the past, Oracle's recovery facilities enable database administrators at other sites to return their databases to the earlier point in time also. This operation ensures that the global database remains consistent.

Peer-to-Peer Transactional Replication (three or more participating databases): What if all the nodes are working at the same time

In the topologies that have three or more participating databases.
What if all nodes are working at the same time? "The topology is not partitioned by time.".
location 1 will do insert/update/delete/read in the same time location 2 also will do insert/update/delete/read .......
**Data that will be added by each location is different(each location has its own primary key ranges).
Is it recomended to use Peer-to-Peer Transactional Replication in such scinarios?

The only problem that you have to tackle is what happens when the same data is being updated in multiple locations at the same time. If that is not a possibility with you then p2p is a good choice. Check the above links you will have a better understanding.

Is it possible to mirror the BC database on a different server?

Hi there
This may sound like a strange question.
I am working with a client in Italy to build a contest website. The rules in Italy state that the participant data must be held on a server in Italy - Alternatively if the data is held on a server outside of Italy they permit us to "mirror" the database on a server in Italy.
We are hsoting the BC website in the European data centre which is hosted in Dublin, Ireland.
Have you any suggestions on how I could mirror the database on a differnet (non BC) server?
All suggestions . comments are most welcome.
Thanks
Cormac

Null/Empty Strings use in ESB Database Adapter

Hi
I'm trying to use a database adapter to execute an update on a table with a composite primary key; one of the primary key columns sometimes contains an empty string, however whenever I try to call the adapter, it always converts this to a null value. Is there an easy way to force the adapter to use an empty string instead of a null?
Thanks.

the idea here is to execute the dbms statement, or the setpolicycontext statement in a db session, and being able to execute the next sql statement in the same db session.
This is possible with consecutive database adapters sharing the same db session.
and two db adapters sharing the same db session is possible, if you make sure that the bpel is participating in the db transaction which can be made possible via xa db connections.
Hope this helps,

Retrieving values from Database in Excel Task Pane App

So far,
I created a website with a database on Azure, I then published my App to Azure. My problem is that I'm not sure how I retrieve values from the database (in SQL: SELECT * FROM EXAMPLE_TABLE WHERE date = str). If someone could provide me with sample code,
that would be amazing! :D
It would also be very helpful if anyone knew a method to automatically update the database using information from a xml stream on another website, once a day.
Thank you!

Hi,
>> My problem is that I'm not sure how I retrieve values from the database
You can use jquery ajax call to call your webserivce or REST API, which will query the database and return a json result.
Sample:
Apps for Office: Create a web service using the ASP.NET Web API
>> It would also be very helpful if anyone knew a method to automatically update the database using information from a xml stream on another website
For the database sync-up question, I suggest you posting them on the forums like SQL Server Forum.
Thanks for your understanding.
Best Regards
Lan
