.dbg files in the utl_file_dir

Hello Guru's,
I have several .dbg files sitting in the utl_file_dir. These files pertain to an E-Business 11.5.9 installation. Can these be safely removed?

dbg files are debug files , and you can safely remove it. Looks like you have some debug profile options set at your instance. It is recommended you disable those profile options if you do not have any pending issues with Oracle Apps forms/packages.

  • Is there any way to collect the file list from UTL_FILE_DIR.

    I expect the use "Oracle supplied package UTL_FILE" to import our customer order shipments to table by XML format files. I already did the procedure to import one XML file into Table by DBMS_XMLSave.insertXML and UTL_FILE. GET_LINE. And it did work.
    My question is :
    Is there any way to collect the file list from UTL_FILE_DIR. (I put all import XML files into `/usr/tmp?, I want to get all file names from this folder and feed them into UTL_FILE.FOPEN.)
    Thanks in advance

    UTL_FILE_DIR is a very dangerous and deprecated parameter. Oracle very specifically recommends not using it. You should be using directory objects instead.
    As for doing a directory listing, you can use Java stored proc. External procs/functions are not required.
    The following sample shows how to use such a Java stored proc to insert the result of a directory listing into a session temporary table:
    create or replace and compile java source named "ListFiles" as
    import java.io.*;
    import java.sql.*;
    public class ListFiles
            public static void getList(String directory, String filter)
            throws SQLException
                    File path = new File( directory );
                    final String ExpressionFilter =  filter;
                    FilenameFilter fileFilter = new FilenameFilter() {
                            public boolean accept(File dir, String name) {
                                    if(name.equalsIgnoreCase(ExpressionFilter))
                                            return true;
                                    if(name.matches("." + ExpressionFilter))
                                            return true;
                                    return false;
                    String[] list = path.list(fileFilter);
                    String element;
                    for(int i = 0; i < list.length; i++)
                            element = list;
    #sql {
    insert
    into directory_list
    ( directory, filename )
    values
    ( :directory, :element )

  • How to write files to the filesystem with portal/plsql

    Hi,
    is there a way to write files to the filesystem via Portal?
    Or can i call an external programm (perl, php) to do so, while portal writes further information to database?
    thank you for the help
    Ralf Schmitt

    Hi Ralf,
    my primary task is to publish download-links to files stored ... somewhere as a linklist. I tried to store and download files to/from the database but i cant get it to run. Upload works, download doesn't.
    (i'm not talking about a single form-query-download-link! I need a report-like linklist)If you want to do this you'll have to write some code but sure it's possible - i did it myself.
    The links in the link list in your report should call a stored function retrieving the files from Wwdoc_document or whatever is the document table defined in your DAD. Simply select BLOB_CONTENT into a BLOB variable from the table, provided you know what file to read :-) The function would then read the BLOBs and send them to the client's browser via DBMS_LOB - it's poor design but it works just as smooth as it could and it's really performing. This would simply display the file into your browser or prompt for file save location, depending on what browser you are using and its client settings.
    I guess this is not so clear, if you want some more details feel free to e-mail me at [email protected]
    Another way would be to use wpg_docload to both download and upload files to/from the DB.
    Now i try to figure out if it is possible to store the files to the filesystem and write only additional info like description or path into db.Again, yes, it is. I can't recall exactly how I did it ^_^ but the trick is to create a virtual directory in the DB - pointing at a physical directory on the file system you want to write to, and you have to have full read-write permission on the directory itself, and its path must be included in the utl_file_dir database parameter. Then you use both COM Automation or UTL_FILE to write files.
    would it be possible to let a portal-form write info to the db and then pass the file to a php-script?
    regards,
    Ralf Schmitt

    I need to convert PDF file to Word Document, so it can be edited. But the recognizing text options do not have the language that I need. How I can convert the file in the desired of me language?

    The application Acrobat provides no language translation capability.
    If you localize the language for OS, MS Office applications, Acrobat, etc to the desired language try again.
    Alternative: transfer a copy of content into a web based translation service (Bing or Google provides a free service).
    Transfer the output into a word processing program that is localized to the appropriate language.
    Do cleanup.

  • Delete file from the list & as well as from file upload

    I have come across a situation where there is a sap.ui.unified.FileUploader & user is free to upload as many file selected. then there is a button to display the list of added files as list(deleteable list). list delete is possible by using the standard function provided in the explored of SAP UI5 SDK document. but how to bind both the controls?? do that at the time of deleting the list it will also delete the files added in FileUploader. attaching the screenshot for better understanding...
    SAP UI5 Version 1.24.3

    Hi,
    you can use the setValue() method when you delete a file from the list:
    oFileUploader.setValue("");
    Kind regards,

  • Delete file from the filesystem?

    Hello,
    I have an easy question. But I don´t find the right oracle packages.
    I want to delete a file from the filesystem. How can I do this?
    Thanks for your help!

    Paul,
    If connecting to the Web server on East-Coast USA is not optimal for you, or if you aren't using Oracle 10g Release 2, try this URL instead:
    http://www.oracle.com/technology/documentation/index.html
    You need to look for the PL/SQL Packages and Types Reference document, the section detailing the UTL_FILE package.
    Good Luck,
    Avi.

  • How do I open a local file on the computer?

    I use FF 25.0.1 to log onto my EMC VNX5300 JAVA console so that I can administer the SAN. One of the functions is to create reports on the SAN usage. The SAN console writes the files to the local computer and uses the browser to open and display the file. Here's the address bar of one of my reports:
    file:///C:/Users/MyName/emc/Unisphere/Reports/7.32.2.0.36/ArrayConfig.html?xml=file%3A///C%3A%5CUsers%5Cjmilano%5Cemc%5CUnisphere%5CReports%5CFCN00131500068_UMReport_12-17-2013_15-58-21.xml

    The report should be a formatted table of data but instead I get a blank window within my tab. If I run the report in IE, it works OK. It looks something like this:

    The storage system configuration display feature provides an easy-to-understand view of the XML configuration data generated by the storage system. Note that no configuration data for the File portion of a VNX system is included.
    The XML version of the data is encrypted and sent to your service provider.
    The following information is available in each tab:
    How can I get FF to show the report? Thanks.

    Great that it is now working.
    For anyone interested in the slow startup aspect: <br />
    The slow strartup may have a number of causes. One potential method of helping is to reset Firefox, and that does remove Firefox extensions. See
    * [[Reset Firefox preferences to troubleshoot and fix problems]]

    Firefox may now warn if it takes a long time to start up. ( Introduced with FHR [[Firefox Health Report - understand your browser performance]] )

  • How can multiple files for the same genre be consolidated

    I organize my iTunes files in genre folders for easy access. ITunes creates multiple folders for some genres and allows a single (preferred) genre file for other much larger files. How can I consolidate multiple files with the same genre?

    Thanks. I've done what you selected. The problem is that despite all files being identified with the same genre, iTunes groups some genres in two separate folders. Thus, I have two "Country" folders, for example. More perplexing is that iTunes groups my largest genre folder, "Jazz", in a single folder.

  • How do I find a photo file in the Finder + future migration question

    Being a recent Mac convert, I am just getting used to the 'complete control' approach to photo management that iPhoto has. I'm used to knowing where my photos physically reside on my computer - this is useful for doing things like uploading photos to a website for example. How do I actually find a particular photo in the Finder (or even give photo files recognisable names, as opposed to whatever automated naming system iPhoto uses)?
    A followup question to this is, what happens if I ever want to migrate my photos out of iPhoto one day to another application or even back to a PC (God forbid - just my paranoia about being forced to use a particular system forever kicking in here!) - is there a way to do this, and keep photo modifications etc? Or once I start using iPhoto, have I made my decision for life??
    My apologies if this has been asked before, I couldn't find anything in the forum when searching.

    I hope you've a notebook and pen, but you've asked a lot of questions:
    I'm used to knowing where my photos physically reside on my computer
    You photos are stored in the iPhoto Library at your Pictures Folder. This is a Unix style Package Folder that very easy to see inside: right click on it and choose show package contents. A finder window opens with the library exposed.
    Here's how the library is laid out:
    In this folder there are various files, which are the Library itself and some ancillary files. Then you have three folders
    Originals are the photos as they were downloaded from your camera or scanner.
    (ii) Modified contains edited pics, shots that you have cropped, rotated or changed in any way.
    iPhoto always preserves the original file, all operations are carried out on a copy.
    (iii) Data holds the thumbnails the the app needs to show you the photos in the iPhoto Window.
    And here's a warning: It is strongly advised that you do not move, change or in anyway alter things in the iPhoto Library Folder as this can cause the application to fail and even lead to data loss.
    this is useful for doing things like uploading photos to a website for example
    No it's not. Don't surf the iPhoto Library. The idea with iPhoto is that you do everything via the iPhoto Window or media browsers:
    So, to access pics use one (or more) of the following:
    There are three ways (at least) to get files from the iPhoto Window.
    1. *Drag and Drop*: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic.
    2. *File -> Export*: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size. Again, producing a copy.
    3. *Show File*: Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.
    To upload to MySpace or any site that does not have an iPhoto Export Plug-in the recommended way is to Select the Pic in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export and export the pic to the desktop, then upload from there. After the upload you can trash the pic on the desktop. It's only a copy and your original is safe in iPhoto.
    This is also true for emailing with Web-based services. If you're using Gmail you can use THIS
    If you use Apple's Mail, Entourage, AOL or Eudora you can email from within iPhoto.
    If you use a Cocoa-based Browser such as Safari, you can drag the pics from the iPhoto Window to the Attach window in the browser. Or, if you want to access the files with iPhoto not running, then create a Media Browser using Automator (takes about 10 seconds) or use THIS
    iPhot doesn't name the files, those names are given by your camera. You can add titles in iPhoto and if you use the File -> Export command there's a facility there to name the resulting file (it'll be a copy - remember what I said about all operation being done on a copy...) with the title.
    Do not rename files in iPhoto, That comes under the heading of making changes in the iPhoto Library Folder and alters the path to the files. If you do, iPhoto will lose track of the file. But the truth is there's simply no need to. However, you can rename the files before importing them if you like.
    Migrating is really easy. You've seen the layout of the Library above. The originals are all there, in the originals folder, the Modified versions in their folder. If you want to have only the most recent versions of pics, then export them from iPhoto to a folder on the desktop.
    By all means post back if you need more.

  • Access denied error while writing a file to the file system - myfileupload.saveas() throws system.unauthorizedexception

    hi,
    as part of my requirement , i have to perform read and  write  operations of  few files [ using the file upload control in my custom visual web part] and on submit button click.
    but while writing these files - with the help of  fileupload control - and when i use  myfileupload.saveas(mylocation);
    - i am saving these files into my D:\ drive of my server , where i am executing my code -, am getting access denied error.
    it throws system.unauthorizedexception.
    i have given full control on that folder where i was trying to store my attached files. and also  after following asp.net forums,
    i have added  iusr group added and performed all those steps such that, the file is saved in my D:\ drive.
    but unfortunately  that didnt happen.
    also
    a) i am trying the code with runwithelevatedprivileges(delegate() )  code
    b) shared the drive within the  d :drive where i want o save the files.
    c) given the full privieleges for the app pool identity- in my case , its
    network service.
    the  other strange thing is that, the same code works perfectly in  other machine, where the same sp, vs 2012  etc were installed .
    would like to know, any other changes/ steps i need to make it on this  server, where i am getting the  error.
    help is  appreciated!

    Hi Friends,
    I have gone through scores of examples and i am failing to understand the right thing to be done to copy a file from one directory to another. Here is my class...So let's see... C:\GetMe1 is a directory on your machine, right? And this is what you are doing with that directory:
    public static void copyFiles(File src, File dest) throws IOException
    // dest is a 'File' object but represents the C:\GetMe1 directory, right?
    fout = new FileOutputStream (dest);If it's a directory, where in your code are you appending the source file name to the path, before trying to open an output stream on it? You're not.
    BTW, this is awful:
    catch (IOException e)
    IOException wrapper = new IOException("copyFiles: Unable to copy file: " +
    src.getAbsolutePath() + "to" + dest.getAbsolutePath()+".");
    wrapper.initCause(e);
    wrapper.setStackTrace(e.getStackTrace());
    throw wrapper;
    }1) You're hiding the original IOException and replacing it with your own? For what good purpose?
    2) Even if you had a good reason to do that, this would be simpler and better:
    throw new IOException("your custom message goes here", e);
    rather than explicitly invokign initCause and setStackTrace. Yuck!
