Compiled the file (above ) shell.c as :
gcc -c shell.c
Made the library as :
ld -r -o shell.so shell.o
chmod 777shell.so
copied the file to respective Home directories. Made one link to /usr/lib :
which is in LD_LIBRARY_PATH
created the Library as :
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE shell(command IN char)
AS EXTERNAL
NAME "sh"
LIBRARY shell_lib
LANGUAGE C
PARAMETERS (command string);
So my problem is
when executing the procedure from SQL prompt:
SQL> exec shell('any command');
it throws the following errors :
BEGIN shell('ls'); END;
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-06520: PL/SQL: Error loading external library

Any help or suggestions would be appreciated
Thanks in advance......
Made one Link to /usr/lib
Nikolai,
I have created a simple process flow which only calls the external process. The script is on the same host as the process flow is deployed to.
I have used two diffent values for the command parameter.
1. I placed the full path of the file in the command parameter and left the script parameter blank:
COMMAND: /edwftp/ppas/scripts/ClearPPAS.sh
PARAMETER_LIST:
SUCCESS_THRESHOLD: 0
SCRIPT:
2.I placed the bash command in the command parameter and the full path in the script parameter.
COMMAND: /usr/bin/sh
PARAMETER_LIST:
SUCCESS_THRESHOLD: 0
SCRIPT: /edwftp/ppas/scripts/ClearPPAS.sh
Both of these appear to work as they print out the statements inside the script but the files that are supposed to be removed still remain.

How to build a report in web Intelligence using Store procedure under Microsoft SQL Server 2000
Post Author: ltkin
CA Forum: WebIntelligence Reporting
Hi,
How to build a report in web Intelligence using Store procedure under Microsoft SQL Server 2000 ?
Regards,Hi ltkin,
Unfortunately, it is not possible in Xir2 to create Webi reports from stored procedures.
Webi reports can only be created from Universe. So in Business Objects XIR3 we can create a special universe that enables Web Intelligence user's to access stored procedures residing in the database. This is the only way that Web Intelligence user's can access stored procedures.
Please let me know if the above information helps.

How to Use the Procedures in a Sql Query
Hi Friends,
Can anyone help me out whether can we use the procedure in the sql query..
if yes help me out with an example
my requirement is
i have one sql query .. in which i need to use the procedure which returns multiple values... how can i overcome it,can anyone help me out for this..
for your reference i am pasting the sql query

Stored Procedure Vs PL-SQL Block
Hi,
I came across an interesting problem last week. Fortunately, I was able to solve it or find an acceptable workaround for myself. But wanted to get some clarification from the experts. So posting it here.
Also, I am new to Orcle, so please excuse any shortcomings in the post.
My data model has following tables-
TABLE_PARENT (ID, other columns)
TABLE_CHILD (ID, other columns, PARENT_ID_FK)
Here, ID is the primary key column for the respective tables; PARENT_ID_FK is the foreign key referencing the ID column from the TABLE_PARENT.
I created a stored procedure programmatically (using MS Excel) to insert records in the two tables. The stored procedure has insert statements for an indefinite number of records in the parent table and for every such record, there's a corresponding record inserted in the child table. Here's the sample code.
BEGIN
/*first record*/
parent_id := MY_SEQUENCE_GENERATOR.NEXTVAL;
INSERT INTO TABLE_PARENT(ID, other columns) VALUES (parent_id, other values);
INSERT INTO TABLE_CHILD(ID, other values,parent_id );
/*second record*/
parent_id := MY_SEQUENCE_GENERATOR.NEXTVAL;
INSERT INTO TABLE_PARENT(ID, other columns) VALUES (parent_id, other values);
INSERT INTO TABLE_CHILD(ID, other values,parent_id );
/*third record*/
parent_id := MY_SEQUENCE_GENERATOR.NEXTVAL;
INSERT INTO TABLE_PARENT(ID, other columns) VALUES (parent_id, other values);
INSERT INTO TABLE_CHILD(ID, other values,parent_id );
/*and so on*/
END
When I run this stored procedure, I keep getting following exception intermittently-
ORA-02291: integrity constraint violated-parent key not found tips.
My thinking is that it comes because the insert statements are executing ahead of turn of the parent_id assignment statement. And this is happening possibly because of some parallelism that is taking place during the execution of the stored procedure, or, some sort of optmization that the DB server does (though erroneously) when it compiles the stored procedure.
I tried out everything that I could think of but it didn't go away. Finally, when I executed the same set of statements as a PL-SQL block, it worked fine.
To understand it better, I am looking for clarification on the following questions.
1) Why does the exception come with stored procedure but not with PL-SQL block? Is my reasoning given above correct (parallelism or some sort of optimization coming into play)?
2) If it is due to parallelism, how to run a Oracle stored procedure with defree of prallelism set to 1?
3) If it is due to optimization done by the compiler, how to instruct the compiler to not do any such optimization. Also, in any case, isn't it an error to optimize but lose program semantics?
4) Another question related to the same piece of work I have is to use transactions in the PL-SQL block, I had to explicitly COMMIT/ROLLBACK it in the code. In whatever references I had read, it was said that by default the transaction begins with BEGIN statement and commits with END. Also, it seems to work with a Stored Proedure though. So is it that a PL_SQL block needs explicity call to COMMIT/ROLLBACK to achive transactions but stored procedures do not?
Any inputs/clarifications will be much appreciated.
Thank you

*/* And so on for a few parent records more */*
END;
Can you throw some light on the exception I was seeing now? Note that when I changed from stored procedure to an anonymous block, it worked fine.
One correction in my earlier post is that as the code snippet shows, there are multiple inserts in the child table for every record inserted in the parent one. -

Error Calling an external procedure
I'm calling an external procedure (provided by a third party).
When i invoke it from a client code, it functions.
When I invoke it from PL/SQL code, it gives the following error:

If so, what is the solution to the problem. (I cannot access the source of the DLL subroutine).your listener.ora file has problem!
it should look similiar to:

Error while executing a procedure in pl/sql
Hi,
iam execvuting a procedure in pl/sql and i get the following error,

small

could anyone explain what has gone wrong in this case???According to the documentation:
ORA-01555: snapshot too old: rollback segment number string with name "string" too small
Cause: Rollback records needed by a reader for consistent read are overwritten by other writers.
Action: If in Automatic Undo Management mode, increase the setting of UNDO_RETENTION. Otherwise, use larger rollback segments.
Error: ORA-01555: snapshot too old (rollback segment too small)
Cause: This error can be caused by one of the problems, as described below.
Action: The options to resolve this Oracle error are:
This error can be the result of there being insufficient rollback segments.
A query may not be able to create the snapshot because the rollback data is not available. This can happen when there are many transactions that are modifying data, and performing commits and rollbacks. Rollback data is overwritten when the rollback segments are too small for the size and number of changes that are being performed.
To correct this problem, make more larger rollback segments available. Your rollback data for completed transactions will be kept longer.
This error can be the result of programs not closing cursors after repeated FETCH and UPDATE statements.
To correct this problem, make sure that you are closing cursors when you no longer require them.
This error can occur if a FETCH is executed after a COMMIT is issued.
The number of rollback records created since the last CLOSE of your cursor will fill the rollback segments and you will begin overwriting earlier records. -

You need to define it (using a SYSDBA account) as follows:
SQL> alter system set smtp_out_server='<your-smtp-server>' scope=both;Replace +<your-smtp-server>+ with the IP address or host name of your SMTP server. Also this assumes standard SMTP tcp/25 port is used. If not, add the port number (using a colon separator) to the server name. -

OWF Builder 2.6
When I deploy and execute using Deployment Manager, it gave me the below error
Starting Execution TEST
Starting Task TEST
Starting Task TEST:EXTERNALPROCESS
CreateProcess: move move F:\FlatFiles\in\company.txt F:\FlatFiles\error\company.err error=2

What am I missing something here?
Is my Parameters correct?
GIve me the link where I can find more on using External process.
Please...please...help me..
ShreeNikolai,
I have created a simple process flow which only calls the external process. The script is on the same host as the process flow is deployed to.
I have used two diffent values for the command parameter.
1. I placed the full path of the file in the command parameter and left the script parameter blank:
COMMAND: /edwftp/ppas/scripts/ClearPPAS.sh
PARAMETER_LIST:
SUCCESS_THRESHOLD: 0
SCRIPT:
2.I placed the bash command in the command parameter and the full path in the script parameter.
COMMAND: /usr/bin/sh
PARAMETER_LIST:
SUCCESS_THRESHOLD: 0
SCRIPT: /edwftp/ppas/scripts/ClearPPAS.sh
Both of these appear to work as they print out the statements inside the script but the files that are supposed to be removed still remain.

The permissions on the /log direcotry are 775. The user I register the file location with owns this directory.
Can't think of anything else I have missed. I really appreciate your help :)

Simple PL/SQL Question - Creating/using a procedure in PL/SQL
So far, I have been making simple PL/SQL scripts with no procedures. The structure looks like the following:
DECLARE
BEGIN
END
I have found documentation for Procedures, however I don't see how to insert them into that structure. Apparently one way is Packages, however I don't want to store the PL/SQL on the database. Can someone give me a highlevel structure of a PL/SQL that defines and uses a procedure?SQL> declare
2 procedure stage1 as
3 begin
4 dbms_output.put_line('stage 1');
5 end;
6 procedure stage2 as
7 begin
8 dbms_output.put_line('stage 2');
9 end;
10 begin
11 stage1;
12 stage2;
13 end;
14 /
stage 1
stage 2

How to use external procedures in OWB Mapping
Hi,
Does anyone have an exmple of using external procdures in Mapping.
Thanks
mandiHi Mandi,
you can use Public and self created external Procedures/Functions in a Mapping.
You can integrate them in Expressions, e.g.
or use them as Post or Premapping in a Mapping.
It´s simple, just play a bit :-)
Only on a few Things you´ve to watch:
Every external Objects you want to use in a Mapping must be known in the Metadatas.
If you create a Mapping under the User scott,(e.g.), and you want to use
an external Procedures/Functions from the User Tiger,(e.g.), you must make sure
that theres a connection between these two Schematas.
For such things you can create a Connector in the Control Center.
