Email sending from oracle database facing problem

Hi Gurus,
Can anybody please help me..
I am stuck in sending Emails thru oracle server. Previously it was giving some error 421 of smtp transient error.
But now my complete code is running successfully, it seems that oracle server is sending the mail but
it is not relayed thru my smtp server as i am not received that test mail in my mail box.
In the body of the code I have tracked every step which is running smoothly without any error..
Do it require a static ip address???
Kindly help me to configure....
Thanks in advance..!!!
Regards,
Swati

  • Sending a mail from oracle database

    Hi,
    I have a requirement to send a mail from oracle database.I use UTL_TCP package for this.Although my procedure is executed successfully,i dont get the mails in my inbox.Please help me to figure out a solution.
    Thanks in advance....

    Hi, you must use UTL_SMTP package for send emails, it has more performance and features for debug. You must look the next code, this is a example for send emails.
    DECLARE
    c UTL_SMTP.CONNECTION;
    PROCEDURE send_header(name IN VARCHAR2, header IN VARCHAR2) AS
    BEGIN
    UTL_SMTP.WRITE_DATA(c, name || ': ' || header || UTL_TCP.CRLF);
    END;
    BEGIN
    c := UTL_SMTP.OPEN_CONNECTION('smtp-server.acme.com');
    UTL_SMTP.HELO(c, 'foo.com');
    UTL_SMTP.MAIL(c, '[email protected]');
    UTL_SMTP.RCPT(c, '[email protected]');
    UTL_SMTP.OPEN_DATA(c);
    send_header('From', '"Sender" <[email protected]>');
    send_header('To', '"Recipient" <[email protected]>');
    send_header('Subject', 'Hello');
    UTL_SMTP.WRITE_DATA(c, UTL_TCP.CRLF || 'Hello, world!');
    UTL_SMTP.CLOSE_DATA(c);
    UTL_SMTP.QUIT(c);
    EXCEPTION
    WHEN utl_smtp.transient_error OR utl_smtp.permanent_error THEN
    BEGIN
    UTL_SMTP.QUIT(c);
    EXCEPTION
    WHEN UTL_SMTP.TRANSIENT_ERROR OR UTL_SMTP.PERMANENT_ERROR THEN
    NULL; -- When the SMTP server is down or unavailable, we don't have
    -- a connection to the server. The QUIT call will raise an
    -- exception that we can ignore.
    END;
    raise_application_error(-20000,
    'Failed to send mail due to the following error: ' || sqlerrm);
    END;
    Also review the next link for get more information about the UTL_SMTP packege.

  • Error calling BLS from oracle database

    Hi Experts,
    We have a scenario in which we are calling BLS from oracle database using trigger. The call is made using the following URL:
    http://<Host name>:50000/XMII/Runner?Transaction=<TRX_Path>&Material=MATNR&Pallet_id=PALLET&Plant=PLANT&Proc_order=PROC&Prodline=PROD&Quantity=QTY&Start_Date=DAT&Start_Time=TIM&Status=STAT&UOM=UOM1&User_name=USER&OutputParameter=*
    This used to work fine in 11.5 but when we upgraded to 14.0 it is not working. We have maintained server details in \etc\host file.
    We were getting error in file 'Error 1 Text.txt'. "A possible Cross-Frame Scripting attack has been prevented. Please contact your system administrator or refer to" this was the last error message. We checked this on SCN and based on the search results we have implemented SAP note 1651004 wherein setting in netweaver is required to be changed. After note was implemented we are getting another error text ('Error 2 Text.txt') "This will happen if the browser running the page tha". We tried a few ways but could not capture the full message coming.
    Has anybody of faced similar problem? I would highly appreciate any hint which could help in solving this problem.
    System Information:
    NW 7.31 SP 10

    Hi Christian/Anushree,

  • Performance Issue: Retrieving records from Oracle Database

    While retrieving data from Oracle database we are facing performance issues.
    The query is returning 890 records and while displaying it on the jsp page, the page is taking almost 18 minutes for displaying records.
    I have observed that cpu usage is 100% while processing the request.
    Could any one advise what are the methods at DB end or Java end we can think of to avoid such issues.
    Thanks
    R.

    Will it make any difference if I select columns instead of ls.*
    possibly, especially if there's a lot or data being returned.
    Less data over the wire means a faster response,
    You may also want to look at your database, is that outer join really needed? Does it perform? Are your indexes good?
    A bad index (or a missing one) can kill query performance (we've seen performance of queries drop from seconds to hours when indexes got corrupted).
    A missing index can cause full table scans, which of course kill performance if the table is large.
