Emailing through oracle database

I am using oracle database 8i ,application server 9i.
What software/infrastructure I needed to send email to my consumers
in database regarding their electricity Bill.
Is it oracle email server?

Which point release of 8i? UTL_SMTPwas introduced in 8.1.6. This will allow you to send e-mail via PL/SQL.
You need an SMTP server somewhere on the network that is visible to the database server; if you don't know the url of this server you will have to ask your network administrator. However, if you're lucky you should find that 127.0.0.1 (localhost) does the trick.

    In general for occasional use a client such as coreftp is useful (check licensing); filezilla is also possible.
    Setting up the linux to share folder using samba is perhaps a longer term solution but requires more expertise to set up and requires managment. Poor setups could compromise security.
    Could also be done via apache web server, again one step away from compromised security.

  • Sending an Email through Oracle Forms 6i

    Hello. I have a problem that I cannot seem to solve.
    The requirements of a form are that when a button to commit records is selected, an email must be sent (in the background, without visibly opening Outlook or opening another Canvas) to a recipient detailing some on the information presented from that form.
    I've searched through the forums for some help, however, the topics I have read are either not exactly what I'm looking for or completely over my head (I'm a junior developer, in my second week, straight out of school). Any help provided would be greatly appreciated. If there is any further info required, please let me know.
    Thanks in advance.

    You can send emails using the utl_smtp package. There are many examples in the pl/sql forum, or on http://asktom.oracle.com.

  • How to send email through oracle bpm suite 10.3.2?

    I need to send an email to a particular participant each time the instance change activities.
    I have created the "External Resource - Outgoing Mail" but to use the code below, I had no success ...
    do
              Mail.from = "[email protected]";
              Mail.recipient = "[email protected]"
              Mail.subject = "Hi";
              Mail.contentType= "Content-type: text/plain;";

    I use the Oracle BPM Suite 10.3.2
    Grateful.
    Wellington.

    Using your logic you'd need to set the SMTP field for the Engine.
    Since you configured the Outgoing Email External Resource, you might try this instead:
    mail as Mail
    mail.from = "[email protected]"
    mail.recipient = "[email protected]"
    mail.subject = "Hi"
    mail.message = "Hello"
    mailSender as MailSender = Fuego.Net.MailSender(mail : mail)
    send(mailSender, implname : "{name of Mail Outgoing Service}")Dan

  • Weblogic 5.1, Distributed Transaction and Oracle Database Link

    We are planning to add a new functionality to run in Weblogic server and it
    needs to update tables in two different Oracle databases. Since we are using
    Weblogic 5.1 and it is unrealistic to upgrade to 6.1 in short term, we have
    to deal with the fact that distributed transaction is not supported by JTS
    on 5.1.
    One workaround we can think of is to utilize Oracle database link. Instead
    of having two connection pools, the application talks to only one database
    and access the tables on the other ones through Oracle database link.
    Therefore, when a session bean tries to update two tables on database 1 in
    one transaction, one of the tables is just a link to the other database. We
    hope that even though distributed transaction is not supported by JTS in
    Weblogic 5.1, but since it is supported by Orable, it would work.
    Do you think the above workaround would work? Does anyone have experience on
    something like that?
    Thanks in advance,
    David Chen

    Hi. You should be able to use any JDBC driver with WebLogic 5.1.
    It may be the JVM that complains, if you use too old a JVM...

  • Is there any difference in oracle database and forms database

    i want to know is there any difference in oracle database and forms 6i database
    ,if i import some file through oracle database then same data will exist in forms database or not
    thanks

    Oracle Forms is a Rapid Application Development (RAD) tool not a database. With Forms, you connect to an Oracle database to query and display data from the database as well as insert new or update existing data. Consequently, if exists in the database - you should be able to display it in a Form.

  • Receiving Email Messages through Oracle procedure using forms.

    Hi,
    First of all best wishes for the people who are delivering their knowledge in that forum.
    I would like to have a procedure that connect to pop servers and receive email messages with attachments. We want to do this through oracle forms.
    What type of routine, I need that browses through the pop servers and receives email messages with attachments into database tables, through forms.
    Can I have an example that how we do that?
    Your valuable information will help me lot.

    Databases 8i/9i
    forms 6i

    I exactly don't know the code, but I can tell you the steps how to do it. If u find it useful
    Oracle built-ins like UTL_TCP exist that could make it possible to receive email completely inside a stored procedure
    1) Create a special email address on a convenient mail server.
    2) If the mail server isn't the same machine as the database server, use a program like GNU fetchmail that will pull the mail down to the local machine.
    3) Now that the mail data is available in a mail file on the local machine, use one of a variety of techniques to load the email data from the file into the database.

  • Retrieve data from a synonym in oracle database through db connect

    Hi Everyone,
    I have created certain synonym for some tables in oracle. I want to retrieve data from it through db connect but where through source system and then selecting database tables, only tables and views are available.
    Synonyms are not available to create data sources and retrieve the data from it. Why is it so. Is this a limitation of db connect.
    Can anyone please let me know about it.
    Thanks,
    Joshua.

    Hi,
    You want to import data from an external Oracle database into your BW 3.X. To do this, you can connect the external database to the BW 3.X release as a source system using the external database connect. BW 3.X here represents BW 3.0, BW 3.1 and BW 3.5 because in other (DB relevant) parts, all 3 versions are based on the same source code.
    General information
    The above function allows you to load data from an external Oracle database (not a BW database) into your BW 3.0 system.
    There may also be constellations which cannot be used directly through the DB Connect access. However, it should be possible to find an adequate, customer-specific solution for most of these scenarios.
    In such situations, the resulting work falls into the area of Consulting and cannot be handled via Support.
    Successful implementation of a connection requires corresponding expertise and experience in the use of the source database in the areas:
                    - Tools
                    - SQL syntax
                    - DB-specific functions
    Corresponding knowledge of the source application is also required to ensure that semantically relevant data arrives in the BW system.
    Procedure
    You should execute the following steps to connect the source system (Q) to the BW system (BW):
    Installing the client software on an BW application server
                         Of course, you only need to install the client software if you are using BW with a non-Oracle database.
                         Use the Oracle setup program on the database CD (runInstaller on Unix) to start the OracleInstaller. Follow the program instructions and the DB installation instructions to install the Oracle Client software on BW.
    Testing connection setup from BW to Q
                         After you install the client software on BW, try to set up a connection from BW to the server on Q. You may need to adjust the tnsnames.ora or sqlnet.ora files for this, to introduce the Oracle systems (to which contact should be made) to BW. You can test the connection by executing the command "tnsping QDB" on BW to check whether the client has established contact to the QDB database on the Q system.
    Creating a separate U user in Q
                         We recommend that you create a separate U user in Q for connection to BW. This means that authorization and administration questions can be solved centrally.
    Displaying data sources in Q for the U user
                         To provide U data for users other than U, you can create views on other user tables as user U:
                         CREATE OR REPLACE VIEW viewname AS
                           SELECT * FROM QDB.tablename
                         You may have to grant SELECT privileges to user U in the QDB schema:
                            GRANT select ON QDB.tablename TO U
                         Of course, you can also restrict or reformat data in the view arrangement (for example, change from internal date format into the SAP date format). JOIN operations using several tables are also available.
                         !!! Synonyms do not yet work!!!
                         Synonyms that you can create as described below are another option for providing a complete table for the user U:
                           CREATE SYNONYM synoname FOR QDB.tablename
                         !!! Synonyms do not (yet) work!!!
                         After you have displayed the require data for user U, you can simply use
                           SELECT * FROM <view or table>
                         on the Q system to check which data is returned.
                         You can now open a link to Q as user U in the BW system with SQLPLUS and check, using the same SELECT, whether this data is also seen in the Oracle client. If this is not the case, there is probably a connection problem.
    Creating a connection from BW to Q in BW
    Including data sources of user U user in Q in BW.
    Solution
    Supported BW, Basis and BW 3.0B database versions, Basis 6.20 Support Package 2 (or higher)
          Oracle 8.1 (or higher, see below)
    Possible problems
    - Synonyms do not (yet) work!
    Up to now, only tables and views have been used as data sources for the DB Connect from the R3 Basis. As soon as synonyms are also used in the Basis, you will be able to convert created views (or even replicated tables) to synonyms as a workaround.
    With Basis 6.40 at the earliest, therefore as of BW 3.5, you will also be able to use synonyms. Until then, the following will help:
      CREATE VIEW <view_on_synonym> AS SELECT * FROM <synonym>
    - The source DB must have at least the release version of the BW DB.
    Oracle only ensures the support of client-server links if the version of the client is not higher than that of the server. So if BW has Oracle version 8.1 and, as in the case of Dbconnect, is run as a client against the server of the source database, the source database must have at least release Oracle 8.1 or higher.
    Of course, you have the option to install the Oracle client software of a lower version and then use this for the DB connect. This is also the procedure used to work with a DB connect on external databases of other vendors.
    Furthermore, the implementation of the DBconnect function in BW uses SAP Basis functions. Specifications of Oracle 8.1 database catalogs are used here. The source database must therefore have at least Version 8.1.
    - Oracle Client Software Version
    If you want to connect from an Oracle BW DB to an Oracle source DB, for the DB connect you naturally use the client software that you already installed on each application server.
    If you want to connect from a non-Oracle BW DB to an Oracle source DB, check item 3 of note 521230 to see which Oracle client software version is released with your BW R3 kernel and use this version.
    - Date and time fields in Oracle and their conversion into SAP-compatible column formats
    Example with a DATE field:
    Since a SAP table does not have a DATE field (date values are NUMC(8) and time specifications are NUMC(6)), we will use the Oracle DBA_TABLES system table as an example.
        SQL> desc dba_tables;
    The Oracle DBA_TABLES system table has a LAST_ANALYZED field. This is a DATE type field and is recognized as a date field of 7 characters by DBA_CONNECT. However, the import does not work because the DATE is a 7-byte conglomerate of "...century, year, month, date, hour, minute and second." (extract from the Oracle documentation).
    To make this DATE field legible for DB connect, you must use the TO_CHAR function in a VIEW. This should display the following examples:
    SQL> select LAST_ANALYZED from dba_tables
          where table_name like 'RS%' and rownum < 10 ;
    The formatting used here is the default used implicitly by SQLPLUS.
    SQL> select  to_char(LAST_ANALYZED,'YYYYMMDD') as dat from dba_tables where table_name like 'RS%' and rownum < 10 ;
    The result now has the SAP compatible format YYYYMMDD and should be loaded correctly by the DB connect as a date.
    SQL> select  to_char(LAST_ANALYZED,'HH24MISS') as tim from dba_tables where table_name like 'RS%' and rownum < 10 ;
    The result now has the SAP compatible format HHMMSS and should be loaded correctly by the DB connect as a time.
    You can use the following example for more detailed experiments:
    SQL> select  to_char(
           TO_DATE('03-FEB-2001 04:05:06','DD-MON-YYYY HH24:MI:SS'),
           'YY-MM-DD HH24-MI-SS') as datim from dual;
    with the result:
      DATIM
      01-02-03 04-05-06
    When you create a VIEW and use the TO_CHAR function (or other functions), you should easily be able to avoid problems with the interpretation of date/time specifications (and other reformatting).
    Details about the functions and the formats are contained in the Oracle documentation.
    - Special characters
    A words that contain special characters can only be imported correctly if the code pages in BW and in the source system are identical. If the code pages are not the same, DB Connect can be used if the characters to be imported appear under the first 127 characters of the character set.
    The use of multibyte code pages in the source system for saving data using character sets with more than 256 characters (Kanji, Katakana, Hiragana, Korean, Chinese, Tagalog, Khmer, Arabic, Cherokee, and so on) can cause the characters to become corrupt.
    For questions concerning the code pages, also refer to the FAQ note 606359 and question/answer 19 that appears there.

    We were able to do the same thing with Oracle Application Server and Oracle WebLogic Server. I cannot remember how different the processes were, but it seems like they were very similar. I am going to give you the instructions on how we implemented a "Read PDF" procedure on the WebLogic Server. If you are still on the Application Server you may have to do some Google searches, but it all boils down to the mod_plsql DAD Configuration file.
    Our PDF was located in a table with the following structure:
    CASE_DOCUMENTS
       (id_document                    NUMBER NOT NULL,
        doc_blob                       BLOB,
        note                           VARCHAR2(240),
        created_by                     VARCHAR2(20) NOT NULL,
        created_dt                     DATE NOT NULL,
        case_id                        NUMBER NOT NULL,
        filename                       VARCHAR2(100) NOT NULL)Based on that table structure we created a procedure named READ_PDF which you will reference below in the dads.conf file below:
    CREATE or REPLACE procedure read_pdf (p_id_document IN number)
    is
      view_file     blob;
    BEGIN
      select doc_blob
        into view_file
        from case_documents
       where id_document = p_id_document;
      OWA_UTIL.MIME_HEADER ('APPLICATION/PDF', FALSE);
      HTP.P ('CONTENT-LENGTH: ' || DBMS_LOB.GETLENGTH (view_file));
      OWA_UTIL.http_header_close;
      WPG_DOCLOAD.download_file (view_file);
    END;
    GRANT EXECUTE ON read_pdf TO financial_user_role  -- Name of role to execute
    /Basically, you are passing in one parameter and that is the primary key for your table. You are selecting the pdf stored in a BLOB for that primary key. The commands below that allow the pdf to open up so you can view it – we got this off some search we did a few years ago.
    Now, you need to add logic to your Oracle Form that will call the procedure above, but the URL is based on the dads.conf file that we will set up below… Anyway, we created a button on the form module with a label of "View". In the WHEN-BUTTON-PRESSED trigger the logic looks like this:
    -- The View logic uses the DAD (Database Access Descriptors) method to view a .pdf file from the form.
    -- The DAD was created on WebLogic Server  with the name findadgen.  This allows an http request be made
    -- to the database.
    declare
      v_file          varchar2(400);
      v_success       boolean;
      ret_val         number;
      v_http_link     varchar2(400);
    begin
      -- The format of the link is as follows: hostname:port/pls/DAD_name/procedure_name
      v_http_link := 'http://finas03:8888/pls/findadgen/read_pdf?p_id_document=' || :case_documents.id_document;
      web.show_document(v_http_link, '_BLANK');
    end;The name of our WebLogic Server is "finas03" so that is what is listed in the URL. The "findadgen" is the name of the <Location> in the dads.conf file below, the "read_pdf" is the name of the procedure we created above, the "p_id_document=" is the IN parameter listed in the READ_PDF procedure created above, and the ":case_documents.id_document" is the reference to the primary key in our Oracle Form.
    For WebLogic, you can either go through Enterprise Manager (directions below) or update the dads.conf file on the filesystem directly (if you update the dads.conf file directly then skip to step 4 and ignore step 5):
    1.     Enterprise Manager -> Web Tier -> ohs1
    2.     Oracle HTTP Server (pull-down) – Administration – Advance Configuration
    3.     Select File – dads.conf
    4.     Add something similar:
    # ============================================================================ 
    #                     mod_plsql DAD Configuration File                         
    # ============================================================================ 
    # 1. Please refer to dads.README for a description of this file                
    # ============================================================================  
    # Note: This file should typically be included in your plsql.conf file with 
    # the "include" directive. 
    # Hint: You can look at some sample DADs in the dads.README file 
    # ============================================================================
    <Location /pls/findadgen>
        SetHandler pls_handler
        Order allow,deny
        Allow from All
        AllowOverride None
        PlsqlDatabaseUsername financial
        PlsqlDatabasePassword sdo_3#d1
        PlsqlDatabaseConnectString ffindbTNSFormat
        PlsqlNLSLanguage AMERICAN_AMERICA.WE8ISO8859P1
        PlsqlAuthenticationMode Basic
        PlsqlDefaultPage read_pdf
    </Location>You are adding the <Location> section to your dads.conf file. The "finddadgen" is the name that you will reference in a change you fill make to your Oracle Form. The "financial" is the Schema, the "sdo_3#d1" is the password for that Schema, the "ffindb" is the database that the stored procedure is located on, and the "read_pdf" is a stored procedure you will have to create in order to read the pdf.
    5.     Press the "Apply" Button
    6.     Obfuscate the DAD password by running the dadTool.pl script located in $ORACLE_HOME/bin (This was done on Unix on our server with the following commands):
    $> LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/lib;export LD_LIBRARY_PATH
    $> cd $ORACLE_HOME/bin
    $> perl dadTool.pl -f /u01/app/oracle/middleware/asinst_1/config/OHS/ohs1/mod_plsql/dads.conf
    7.     Restart the Oracle HTTP Server using Fusion Middleware Control:
    Enterprise Manager -> Web Tier -> ohs1
    Oracle HTTP Server – Control – Shutdown
    Oracle HTTP Server – Control – Start Up
    If you followed the instructions above, you should have created a stored procedure, added logic to your Oracle form to reference that stored procedure, and created an entry in the dads.conf file. Once you move the form onto the server and you restart the HTTP Service, you should be able to view a pdf that is stored in a table directly from your Oracle Form.
