EA1 - SQL DDL Tab not working for 10.2.0.3 Oracle Apps DB

I just downloaded the EA1 SQL Developer 1.5.0.51.70 for evaluation purposes. I am connecting to various types of databases - all databases are version 10.2.0.3.
When I am connected to an Oracle Applications 11i database (10.2.0.3 version) as the apps user, then select a table, and then click on the SQL tab - I get a message Generating DDL and then the errors:
o.d.db.DBUtil No more data to read from socket
o.d.r.utils.DBObject Could not get schema Object:java.sql.SQLException:OALL8 is in an inconsistent state
When I connect to one of our other in-house (non Oracle Apps) Oracle database 10.2.0.3 I am able to view the tables and the DDL in the SQL tab.
Is there a reason why I am unable to view the DDL from the SQL tab for Oracle Apps databases

If you get the same error when running the equivalent DBMS_METADATA through SQL*Plus (rather than through SQL Developer), I would assume that it is a problem with DBMS_METADATA in the database - this can be fixed (based on earlier posts, such as Re: ORA-06502 error on SQL tab by reinstalling DBMS_METADATA by running $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin/catmeta.sql.
If it works in SQL*Plus, then I would say it sounds like an issue with how SQL Developer is connecting to the database - simply based on the "no more data to read from socket".

Hi All,
Sql Monitor is not working for forms10g.How can i solve this problems.
Regards
Gopinath M

using sqlmonitor i have traced the forms 6i (.fmx),in this case toad additional

running from the explorer.is there any other forms trace method is available
pls kindly guide to me.

Pl/sql Clob code not works for database table but works for collection!

I tried it ( dbms_lob.getlength(aClob1) ) but the result is the same

Mavericks Folder Tabs (Not working for me)

I've set my Finder Prefs to open folders in Tabs .....
But they still open in a new window.
Ideas?
Thanks

Hi,
After opening several Tabs in Finder, I find they have closed after I´ve shut down & then (Later), restart my Mac Mini.
The Safari tabs stay open.
Cant find anything in `Finder Preferences´ or in `System Preferences´.
I tried Deleting:
~/Library/Saved Application State/com.apple.finder.savedState
(Thanks to Carolyn Samit, but not a permanent fix)
And also copied & pasted to Terminal:
defaults write com.apple.finder NSQuitAlwaysKeepsWindows -bool true
(Thanks to Miska for tip, but not a permanent fix)
This worked for two/three Shut Downs / Restarts.
But I have just started up my Mac Mini after turning it off last night, and ALL the Finder-Tabs I left open are gone!!! (Just the main Finder window was left open!).
Of course, I have "Reopen all windows after Shut Down / Restart" checked.
(The Safari Tabs stay put).
Anyone know how to get round this, and how to keep the Finder-Tabs open after Shut Down / Restart???

Dependencies (references) tab not working for materialized views.

I am using SQL Developer version 1.2.0 Build 29.98. I also had this problem with version 1.1.
I have created some materialized_views that are used by assorted packages, some of which are in other schema than the one that owns the materialized_view. When I select the specific materialized_view, then click on the 'Dependencies' tab, two displays appear. the first, 'Dependencies' is populated. The second 'References' is not. When I click on 'Refresh', nothing happens. I wrote my own query to see if there was a problem with the underlying data. The query shows me that the linkage data is there, linked to the TABLE object created to support the materialized_view object.
SELECT
i.owner AS input_owner,
i.object_name AS input_name,
i.object_id AS input_id,
o.owner,
o.object_name,
o.object_id,
o.TIMESTAMP,
o.status
FROM dba_objects i
INNER JOIN
public_dependency p
ON (referenced_object_id = i.object_id)
INNER JOIN
dba_objects o
ON (p.object_id = o.object_id)
WHERE i.owner = :owner

We finally got Office Web Apps installed and now the Most Popular is working. Of course that means only when the documents are viewed in the Office Web App are they recorded for the Most Popular report. We've done some testing and opening the
file directly in the desktop application, or even editing the file directly in the desktop application are never recorded. My one disclaimer with this is we are using Office 2010, I'm curious if Office 2013 perhaps records views and edits using the desktop
application?
Luckily the latest OWA patch now allows PDF's to open in the Word Office App as well, so those views are recorded. If you have any non office or non PDF in the library, views will not be recorded for these items unfortunately.
I can't believe how this isn't documented anywhere.

SQL tab not working in V2.1 EA1 for non-DBA users -- how to fix?

In v2.1 EA 1 the tab to show the SQL script (DDL) in the object browser is not working for non-DBA users. In the prior version, these users would see a message about DBMS_METADATA and then the message would indicate that an "internal generator" would be used to generate the DDL script. After that brief message the DDL would show up as expected. This doesn't seem to be the case in the newest version.
I issued the following two grants to a particular user which worked, but I am reluctant to issue the grants to "PUBLIC".
SQL> grant execute on DBMS_METADATA to XXXXX;
SQL> grant select_catalog_role to XXXXX;
So, my questions are:
1) Will the old functionality (that didn't require these privileges) be added to V2 at some point?
2) What security implications are there for issueing the above grants to PUBLIC?
NOTE: After granting execute on the DBMS_METADATA package, it still didn't work. I left that grant in place and granted SELECT_CATAOG_ROLE, so I can't say for sure that the 1st grant was required.

An OEM account is separate from the database account. You need to use OEM UI to create an OEM account, however, for certain tasks to be done in the databases which OEM is monitoring they will also require separate database accounts within those databases. For example, to view the performance tab in OEM UI, a database account is required.
OEM only has two types of users, i.e. Super Administrator and Administrator, but don't go by the names. You can grant an OEM 'Administrator' account access to specific targets and what they can do within OEM, such as only viewing reports, targets, and so on. For access within a database, the user created need not be a DBA either.
I hope you understand.

SQL*Plus variable assignment works for 8i but not 9i

We have scripts that connect to each database on the box and perform database tasks nightly. The scripts first set the environment then connects to each database with SQL*Plus. This works for 8i but fails in the recently created 9i environment. (Unix Solaris environment)
Because the SQL*Plus connection appears in many areas in the scripts, we assign the following connection string to a variable:
SQLPLUS="/usr/oracle/product/9.2.0/bin/sqlplus -s 'xxx/xxxxxx@xxxx as sysdba'"
Export SQLPLUS
echo "$SQLPLUS"
(This echo out correctly: /usr/oracle/product/9.2.0/bin/sqlplus -s 'xxx/xxxxxx@xxxx as sysdba')
It fails when the script calls the assigned variable:
$SQLPLUS <<-EOF
with the following error:
Usage: SQLPLUS [ [<option>] [<logon>] [<start>] ]
where <option> ::= -H | -V | [ [-L] [-M <o>] [-R <n>] [-S] ]
<logon> ::= <username>[<password>][@<connect_string>] | / | /NOLOG
<start> ::= @<URI>|<filename>[.<ext>] [<parameter> ...]
"-H" displays the SQL*Plus version banner and usage syntax
"-V" displays the SQL*Plus version banner
"-L" attempts log on just once
"-M <o>" uses HTML markup options <o>
"-R <n>" uses restricted mode <n>
"-S" uses silent mode
However, if I remove the SQLPLUS variable assignment and changed all occurrence of
$SQLPLUS <<-EOF to
/usr/oracle/product/9.2.0/bin/sqlplus -s 'xxx/xxxxxx@xxxx as sysdba' <<-EOF
Then the script runs successfully. But this solution is cumbersome.
Any ideas as to how to have the script work with assigning the SQLPLUS variable????
Any help is appreciated.

I has an immediate suspicion it might be related to the issue
mentioned in
http://otn.oracle.com/support/tech/sql_plus/htdocs/sub_var2.html#2_7
but this proved wrong: the SP2-306 still occurs in the latest
SQL*Plus.
I wonder what version of 8i you had working? With an old SQL*Plus
8.1.7.0 my connection failed the same as in 9.2 and 10i.
My solution was to do:
SQLPLUS='sqlplus -s'
UNPW='/ as sysdba'
$SQLPLUS "$UNPW" <<EOF
EOFThis worked in 9.2.0.5, 10.1.0.2 and 8.1.7.0.
One common security risk on UNIX remains: putting the username and
password on the command line. On some systems a "ps" command will
show the password to any user. If OS authentication cannot be used
for connection, perhaps putting the username/password in the SQL
script may be more secure?
A final note is that in SQL*Plus 10g, no quotes are needed around
AS SYSDBA, i.e.
sqlplus / as sysdba works from the OS prompt, whereas in 9.2 you need to do
sqlplus "/ as sysdba"This makes a solution easy:
SQLPLUS="/usr/oracle/product/10.1.0/bin/sqlplus -s xxx/xxxxxx@xxxx as sysdba"-- CJ

After Upgradation BPF is not working for some users

Hi All,
We have recently upgraded from BPC 5.1 to 7MS SP7. we are having multi server setup with one application / reporting server (windows 2003 and one sql server 2008 (windows 2003 64 bit).
Intially before upgradation we don't have any issues with BPF and it worked fine for all users. But post upgradation tasks within the BPF does not work for other users except for the first two people who first used it. Other users have the same rights as the ones who can access the tasks.
when they click on the link it gets them to eExcel and the right application but doesnt open the package or report assigned to the task. It doesn't give us any errors, on the status bar we get a message finalising but does not getting any thing.
Any inputs ??

Hi,
Are you sure that those users have installed BPC 7 SP7 clients on their machine? Meaning that you uninstalled 5.1 clients and installed the new client from http://servername/Osoft?
If yes, you should maybe run a client diagnostic on the machines and also check the Management Console for any error messages.
Hope this will drive you to a potential solution.
Best Regards,
Patrick

Auto_lexer (stemming) not working for other languages(other than english)

Hi All,
We are planning to use AUTO_LEXER instead of MULTI_LEXER and observed that stemming is not working for German where as it is working for English when I use AUTO_LEXER. I even used query templates but of no use.
But when i use MULTI_LEXER, creating sub lexers for German and Enlgish, Stemming is working for German also after changing the session language and setting stemmer of wod list to German (Which is expected).
Following is the code for AUTO_LEXER creation:
CREATE TABLE test_auto_lexer(pkey NUMBER(5,0),
lang_index VARCHAR2(3),

INSERT INTO test_auto_lexer(pkey,lang_index,content_text)
VALUES (5,'eng','always drive a car')
INSERT INTO test_auto_lexer(pkey,lang_index,content_text)

INSERT INTO test_auto_lexer(pkey,lang_index,content_text)

this doesnt work even after changing the session language. My default Sesson language is AMERICAN.
Could any one help me with this, in case I am missing something here. I would be really thankful.

In the future, please begin a new thread for a new question and provide a link to a related question.
According to the online documentation, Oracle only supports stemming for English, Dutch, French, German, Italian, Spanish, and Japanese. Oracle does not support Russian stemming, although you may have gotten some accidental results, due to identifying it as a different language and applying stemming rules for that language. The following manual sections show the languages available for the index_stems attribute of the basic_lexer and stemmer attribute of the basic_wordlist:
Basic_lexer attributes:
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11882_01/text.112/e24436/cdatadic.htm#CIHHBAAD
Basic_wordlist attributes:
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11882_01/text.112/e24436/cdatadic.htm#g1019326
Also, please see the following note:
Features not available in 11.2.0.3:
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11882_01/readmes.112/e22488/toc.htm#BABDGGDB
"Certain Oracle Text functionality based on third-party technologies, including AUTO_LEXER and CTX_ENTITY, have been disabled in this release (reference Bug 12618046). For BASIC_LEXER, the usage of the INDEX_STEMS attribute values that depend on third-party technologies, is also affected. If this impacts an existing application, contact Oracle Support Services for guidance."
Also, the auto_lexer has been replaced by the world_lexer, which only has one attribute:
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11882_01/text.112/e24436/cdatadic.htm#BHCJEGFJ
I don't work for Oracle, so I don't know why they do things the way they do.
So, you need to stick with the basic_wordlist for stemming, not the lexers. However, you may get better performance by combining the multi_lexer with the basic_wordlist, as the multi_lexer eliminates time spent on automatic language detection. But, you need to remember not to use the index_stems with your lexer, since it will conflict with the wordlist. I am not experiencing any time problems as you have. Please see the demo below. I have provided the whole script below that, so that you can reproduce it on your system. If you still have problems, then it may be due to differences in versions.

Image Processor not working for me. Help!

In a nearby thread I've reached a stumbling block. Image Processor in CS4's PS is not working for me. I have a folder of psd's generated on the fly via File > Export > Data Sets as File... and now I'm trying to process those psd's to generate a JPEG of each. The only strange characteristic of the auto-generated PSD files is that there is no image preview available within the Finder. When a psd is selected the preview pane reads:
"This layered Photoshop file was not saved with a composite image"
I've verified in my Preferences > File Handling that image previews are always saved. (But I've been using PS for a long time and previews are always available with all my manually saved work.)
So here's what happens when I invoke File > Scripts > Image Processor...
In section 1 of the menu I select the source folder where the psd files reside
In section 2, I select 'Save in same location'
In section 3, I select 'Save as JPEG'
In section 4, I change nothing. No special actions. Include ICC profile is checked.
When I select run I get an error message: "Sorry, I could not process the following files:"
And then it lists what appears to be 3 lines per psd file in the source directory:
The path to the source dir
The name of the source dir
The [source_dir]/[filename.psd]
What am I doing wrong?

The part I don't understand is the "export" Part. File > Export > Data Sets as File.. on my machine is grayed out so I don't know how this feature is used. Is Export > Data Sets as File... used with CSV data sets and Photoshop variables?
Check your Photoshop preferences and make sure you have set in the file handling tab "Maximize PSD and PSB File Compatibility:" to Always using the pull down menu. If that is not your current setting try setting that to see if the exported PSD files contain composite previews. When I use save as PSD on my system I alway see Photoshop save through up a popup window stating generating composite preview image.

Cascading Select Lists - Not Working for me

I am trying to implement Denes Kubicek's Ajax Cascading Select List solution.
http://apex.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=31517:119
But it is not working for me.
I'm a newbie to APEX and checked the forum for advice on cascading select lists. I saw the thread for
"Cascading Select Lists - Not Working" posted by sue and the replies by Varad Acharya, but I'm still
having issues of not seeing the alerts, not able to run the pl/sql process in SQL Workshop, and not
getting the expected results.
I have a list of countries (US - USA, CA - CANADA, etc.) and a list of states for each country. When a
user selects a country I would like to show the list of states within that country.
This is what I've done so far:
Defined an application process:
Process Point: On Demand: Run ... by a page process.
Name: CASCADING_SELECT_LIST1
Process Text:
BEGIN
OWA_UTIL.mime_header ('text/xml', FALSE);
HTP.p ('Cache-Control: no-cache');
HTP.p ('Pragma: no-cache');
OWA_UTIL.http_header_close;
HTP.prn ('<select>');
HTP.prn ('<option value="' || 99 || '">' || '- All States -'
|| '</option>'
FOR c IN (SELECT state_code || ' - ' || state_desc d, state_code r
FROM tbk_state
WHERE country_code = :cascading_selectlist_item_1)
LOOP
HTP.prn ('<option value="' || c.r || '">' || c.d || '</option>');
END LOOP;
HTP.prn ('</select>');
END;
defined and application item:
Name: CASCADING_SELECTLIST_ITEM_1
Build Option: - No Build Option -
Created a 'Form on a table with report' as follows:
Page 5: Report on TBK_HARDWARE_LOCATION
Page 6: Form on TBK_HARDWARE_LOCATION
in HTML Header of the page attributes for 'Form on TBK_HARDWARE_LOCATION' I have:
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">

</script>
<script>
function get_select_list_xml1(pThis,pSelect){
var l_Return = null;
var l_Select = html_GetElement(pSelect);
alert ('Dept no=' + pThis.value);
var get = new htmldb_Get(null,html_GetElement('pFlowId').value,
'APPLICATION_PROCESS=CASCADING_SELECT_LIST1',0);
get.add('CASCADING_SELECTLIST_ITEM_1',pThis.value);
gReturn = get.get('XML');
// gReturn = get.get();
alert('Enames=' + gReturn);
if(gReturn && l_Select){
var l_Count = gReturn.getElementsByTagName("option").length;
l_Select.length = 0;
for(var i=0;i<l_Count;i++){
var l_Opt_Xml = gReturn.getElementsByTagName("option");
appendToSelect(l_Select, l_Opt_Xml.getAttribute('value'),
l_Opt_Xml.firstChild.nodeValue)
get = null;
function appendToSelect(pSelect, pValue, pContent) {
var l_Opt = document.createElement("option");
l_Opt.value = pValue;
if(document.all){
pSelect.options.add(l_Opt);
l_Opt.innerText = pContent;
}else{
l_Opt.appendChild(document.createTextNode(pContent));
pSelect.appendChild(l_Opt);
</script>
On Page 6: 'Form on TBK_HARDWARE_LOCATION' I have the following items (plus some others):
Name: P6_COUNTRY_CODE
Display as: Select List
HTML Form Element Attributes: onchange="get_select_list_xml1(this,'P6_STATE_CODE');"
Source Used: Only when current value in session state is null
Source Type: Database Column

Display as: Select List
Source Used: Only when current value in session state is null
Source Type: Database Column

List of Values definition:
     select state_code || ' - ' || state_desc d, state_code r
     from tbk_state
     where country_code = :P6_COUNTRY_CODE
     order by 1
LIST OF COUNTRIES is defined as:
select country_code || ' - ' || country_desc d, country_code r
from tbk_country
order by 1
Now to the problem:
I run page 5 (the report) to see the list of locations and then I try to edit a record (page 6). When I
try to select a different country I get the following error (on IE):
"Problems with this web page might prevent it from being displayed properly or functioning properly.
In the future, you can display this message by double-clicking the warning icon displayed in the status

I don't see any of the alert messages.
I also tried to run the application process code in the SQL - Command Processor (I replaced
:cascading_selectlist_item_1 with 'CA' or 'US') and got the following:
The XML page cannot be displayed

Can someone help me please?

Varad,
First, thank you for taking the time to try to help me with this problem.
When I view the page's source code (here are the first few lines):
<html lang="en-us">
<head>
<script src="/i/javascript/core.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="/i/css/core.css" type="text/css" />
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">

</script>
<script>
function get_select_list_xml1(pThis,pSelect){
var l_Return = null;
var l_Select = html_GetElement(pSelect);
//alert ('Dept no=' + pThis.value);
var get = new htmldb_Get(null,html_GetElement('pFlowId').value,
'APPLICATION_PROCESS=CASCADING_SELECT_LIST1',0);
get.add('CASCADING_SELECTLIST_ITEM_1',pThis.value);
gReturn = get.get('XML');
// gReturn = get.get();
//alert('Enames=' + gReturn);
if(gReturn && l_Select){
var l_Count = gReturn.getElementsByTagName("option").length;
l_Select.length = 0;
for(var i=0;i<l_Count;i++){
var l_Opt_Xml = gReturn.getElementsByTagName("option");
appendToSelect(l_Select, l_Opt_Xml.getAttribute('value'),
l_Opt_Xml.firstChild.nodeValue);
get = null;
function appendToSelect(pSelect, pValue, pContent) {
var l_Opt = document.createElement("option");
l_Opt.value = pValue;
if(document.all){
pSelect.options.add(l_Opt);
l_Opt.innerText = pContent;
}else{
l_Opt.appendChild(document.createTextNode(pContent));
pSelect.appendChild(l_Opt);
</script>
It looks like line 17 is:
var l_Select = html_GetElement(pSelect);
I'm still not sure why I'm getting this error and why it's not working?
Thanks,
Eti

Switch from MySQL to MS SQL Server, Query not working

I'm sure there is a simple setting somewhere for this, but cannot seem to find it and really would appreciate some assistance. Have an application which uses JDBC to connect to a MySQL DB to run the following query without an issue:
SELECT * FROM users
This returns the desired results. Changed to connect to MS SQL Server 2000 using the JDBC-ODBC bridge and the same query returns no results. The problem, SQL Server wants this query instead:
SELECT * FROM [users]
I don't want to have to change queries depending on the DB, as that is supposed to be one of the advantages of JDBC. Is there a setting in MySQL (or the JDBC driver) to have it work correctly if I pass table names in []? Or is there a setting in MS SQL Server (or in the JDBC, or ODBC) to have it accept queries without the []?
Or is there a different approach that I'm missing which would avoid this whole problem?
Thanks,
Matt

I suspect your database definitions are different. It has nothing to do with your java code.
The bracket syntax is used to indicate the more standard quoted identifiers in standard SQL.
Thus you could do this in oracle and in MS SQL Server...
SELECT * FROM "users"
I suspect that the above will work for your MS SQL Server database and will not work for your Oracle database. However if you created the table in oracle and specifically used "users" (with the double quotes around the name) when creating the table then it would work.
Of course if the database definitions are different it means you must use different SQL for each. Just as if the name of the table was 'other' rather than 'users'.
