Empty pages marked corrupt

I run rman and it shows some blocks as corrupted; when I run dbv all the blocks corrupt show under empty pages.
When I do
select * from dba_extents
where file_id = 25 and
corrupt_block_no between block_id and block_id+blocks-1
all corrupted blocks are in a table which is empty (0 rows).
I dropped the table , recreated it, but these blocks still come out as corrupt.
Will these empty pages corruption create any problems for me in future?
How can I get rid of them, rman recoverblock somehow is not working for me?
THANKS A LOT.

RMAN will check all blocks that
a. are currently in use
OR
b. have been used in the past but may be in free extents now
If the block is in a free extent, RMAN will keep reporting it. However, when the extent is allocated to a table or index, the block will be re-formatted when it is used. If corruption is physical, the Oracle server process will only then detect it. If the corruption is logical, the re-formatting will clear it.
You could attempt to create a new table and load data in that tablespace -- if there are few free extents it is likely that that extent may be used (or just keep creating a few new tables).

  • Block Corruption in empty pages in Oracle 11g

    I am using Oracle 11.1.0.7.1 on HP UNIX 11i.
    On several occasions, I have been seen that block corruptions are reported by rman. I have never seen this problem in previous release of databases; but I have seen it more than once in Oracle 11g.
    However, when I run dbv command; I do not see any corruption in data and index blocks; so my conclusion is block corruption is in empty pages.
    Anyone has ideas why block corruption occurs in Oracle 11g. Has Oracle’s algorithm for checking block corruption have changed in 11g; I.e.; these corruptions existed in older Oracle releases but not reported by rman,
    Another strange thing I noticed:
    1.     When doing export backup, export backup reports about corrupted blocks.
    2.     When I do expdp no errors are reported.
    So question is why is exp command checking empty blocks?
    Any insights in above will be appreciated.

    Can some one explain following ooutput from dbv; what is difference in
    total pages failing and corrupt pages. I see
    total pages marked corrupt as 1345; yet I do not see any data or index
    pages marked corrupt; and there is only 1 empty page. So where are
    those 1345 corrupt pages.

  • DBV-00201: Block, DBA 224, marked corrupt for invalid redo application

    Hello Oracle gurus,
    I ran a "dbv file=<datafile name>" against one of my datafiles that I suspected corruption in. it reported back with
    DBV-00201: Block, DBA 224, marked corrupt for invalid redo application
    DBV-00201: Block, DBA 243, marked corrupt for invalid redo application
    DBV-00201: Block, DBA 244, marked corrupt for invalid redo application
    DBV-00201: Block, DBA 245, marked corrupt for invalid redo application
    DBV-00201: Block, DBA 246, marked corrupt for invalid redo application
    Total Pages Marked Corrupt : 5
    I then ran a "backup validate check logical database" in RMAN and it populated v$database_block_corruption with 2 rows, the same blocks as listed from the dbv output. I found the offending table, dropped it, and purged it from the recyclebin and ran another "backup validate check logical database". The v$database_block_corruption table returned no rows after this. However, when I run another "dbv file=<datafile name>", it is still reporting the same thing as before: DBV-00201: Block, DBA 224, marked corrupt for invalid redo application
    Have I fixed the corruption problem? If yes, why is the dbv command still reporting corruption? If not, do I need to use dbms_repair?
    Respectfully,
    Mimi

    DROP TABLE does not write on blocks/extents used by the dropped table (even with PURGE option). This explain why dropping the table does not remove the DBV error messages.

  • APEX listener - empty page ??

    Hi,
    I have installed tomcat / APEX listener on Oracle Enterprise Linux 5 (with 11gR2 database)
    The configuration seems to be done ... but the page: http://oel52server:8080/apex/apex give me an empty page ?
    do you know what's wrong ?
    Cyryl

    Thanks for the answers.
    I have a similar problem-- but I believe it may not be because of JDK ver. (becaue I already use ver. 6.0).
    Although I am able to see the Apex login page. http://localhost:8888/apex/, but no images are displayed. Moreover it asks for Workspace, Username, Password which I am unaware of (it did not ask for any such information while installing apex). It looks like none of the buttons/links are active. Did I do anything wrong while installing apex?
    This is how I installed Apex.
    1. Downloaded and installed tomcat application server and Apex Listener as per the instructions given in the link:
    http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/application_express/html/apex_listener_install_web.html
    (section B. Installing with Apache Tomcat in the installation )
    2. The images are copied to the following location (as given in the instruction):
    C:\apache-tomcat-6.0.24\webapps\ROOT\images
    3. Started both oracle db server and tomcat app. server
    4. Opened the page http://localhost:8888/apex/Config
    at this point I get the login page with no images and inactive links/buttons.
    Appreciate any help.
    Thank you,

    Hi Mohana,
                    Create one new page and one window of almost page size with no contents.  Move that window to this page.  Keep this page as first page and give earlier first page as next page to this newly created page.

  • Supress empty page which is due to dynamic page (smartforms)

    hi all,
    i' ve got the problem that i get an empty page at the end of my printout.
    the forms is defined as following:
    first_page - following page: next_page
    next_page - following page: next_page
    and in the main window i have a dynamic page (via command node)
    confirmation_page - following page: manual_guide_page
    manual_guide_page - following page: first_page
    the problem is the following page of my last dynamic page, but it is not possible to leave the following page in that case empty and it is necessary to use a page with a main window.
    has anyone an idea how i can solve this problem??
    it it possible to stop printing a page that is empty in smartforms, as i can't set any conditions for the page itself.
    thanks!

    you can put condition like in your program lines
    DESCRIBE TABLE gt_lips LINES gv_lines.
    gv_tabix = sy-tabix + gv_tabix.
    in COMMAND node  put condition like GV_TABIX LE GV_LINES
    you wont get empty pages...

  • Exporting to pdf with page marks and color separations

    Hi All.,
    I have a requirement to export the current document as PDF file. I am using the export provider with the service registry to export the document as pdf file. The code works successfully. Now I have a requirement where I need to save the pdf with color separations and page marks. First I need some information on what does page marks and color separations actually mean for a pdf file. And second I need to know how this could be achieved. Do I have to set some preferences? I have tried setting preference for color , bleed and it works. But I am not sure whether this satisfies the requirement. I would be thankful if someone would suggest me on the same.
    Thanks in Advance
    Vishnu

    Hi,
    In my experienced it cant, you can export it to pdf but you dont have the ability to make it fillable, unless doing it manually, from the exported pdf, install an Adobe Professional software to have capability to save data's.

  • Crystal generates empty pages for a datasource with a lot of data

    Hi, I hope someone have some hints to solve my problem with generating large reports.
    I have SAP Crystal Reports runtime engine for .NET Framework 4 32-bit installed on my Microsoft Windows 2008 R2 Enterprise Server.
    Since I update Crystal Reports to 13.0.2.469 large Reports have only empty pages. If I print those Reports the data are visible, the report is displayed correct.
    I solved the problem temporarily by setting SeparatePages to true for the CrystalReportViewer Control, but for the future I need the complete report displayed at once.
    I would be very pleased about your help / hints.
    Regards, Sabine

    Thank you for your answer.
    My report has only one cross table in it. I can generate it for a dataset with 26 rows. If there are 27 rows the report is empty.
    If I use a diffrent report without a crosstab only with repeatable sections and less data, I can make a select for 150 rows. That shows me 5 - 7 pages.
    It also makes a difference how the page settings are. If I configurate a smaller border for the top and bottom border I need to change my select to select less record rows and if I configurate a greater border there can be more record rows.
    Here an example how I can reproduce my problem:
    using System.Web;
    using System.Web.UI;
    using System.Web.UI.WebControls;
    using CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine;
    using System.Data;
    using System.Net;
    namespace EASWebOffice.Pages
        public partial class ReportTest : System.Web.UI.Page
            private HttpWebRequest request;
            protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
                if (!Page.IsPostBack)
                    request = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create(@"http://localhost:54332/Pages/ReportTest.aspx");
                    AddOnPreRenderCompleteAsync((BeginEventHandler)BeginAsyncOperation, (EndEventHandler)EndAsyncOperation);
                    if (Session["Report"] != null)
                        this.CrystalReportViewer1.ReportSource = Session["Report"];
            IAsyncResult BeginAsyncOperation(object sender, EventArgs e, AsyncCallback cb, object state)
                if (Session["InitialiseReport"] == null)
                    ProcessingReportData();
                return request.BeginGetResponse(cb, state);
            void EndAsyncOperation(IAsyncResult ar)
                if (Session["InitialiseReport"] == null)
                    Response.AddHeader("Refresh", "1");
                    Session["InitialiseReport"] = "performed";
            private void ProcessingReportData()
                CrystalReport2 report = new CrystalReport2();
                // 26 rows works, 27 shows an empty report
                string sql = "select top 26 Auftraggeber as Customer, Kostenträgername as Project, Beschreibung as Description, Stundenanzahl as Hours, UMusername as Ressource from V_MonthEvaluation";
                DataTable data = WebSQLTools.ExecuteToDataTable(sql, Global.Connection, Global.Logger, "");
                DataSet dataSet = new DataSet("DataSet1");
                data.TableName = "DataTable1";
                dataSet.Tables.Add(data);
                report.SetDataSource(dataSet);
                Session["Report"] = report;
    Do someone have a similar problem? Is there a solution?
