Executing sql scripts with command line Sql plus

Hello
Well I will be gradefull if I have an answer to the follow questions
a) How can I connect to a remote XE using sqlplus (command line)?
for example I'm trying to connect like this : sqlplus sys/syspassw@//remoteserver:1521/xe
and I get responce from server that I have to connect as SYSDBA or SYSOPER, so what is the proper syntax in this case?
b) I want to execute a script file with DDL commands from Windows conscole using sqlplus. Inside this script I have the connect command and others. Is there a way to pass the name of script file as parameter to the sqlplus and execute it ? If yes what is the proper syntac from command line of Windows?
Thank you

There are two ways to do that...
Either use the spool command in sqlplus, or on your command line calling sqlplus use a >> to direct the output to a file. Usually the spool is cleaner.
It goes like this:
spool C:\logfile.txt
{sql commands here}
spool off
or
sqlplus /nolog @sqlfile.sql >> C:\logfile.txt
The output will be formatted slightly differently, and if you use the DOS method you won't be able to see the output as it's running.

Executing another program with command line arguments

I am very new to Java, so bare with me.
I have written an encryption/decryption program in C (that accepts command line arguments of the key, mode (encrypt/decrypt), and file), and I have written a GUI for it in Java. It accepts the filename (and has a button which opens the "File/Open" dialog), key, and mode, and has a button to Start the process of the encryption. I'd like for that "Start" button to call my encryption program in C (eep.exe) with the command line arguments of the file, key, and mode. This is what I have written so far :
Start = new JButton("Start");
Start.setBounds(150, 180, 90, 25);
Start.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent ae) {
Desktop.open(new File("C:\\eep.exe" + " " + filename + " " + mode + " " + key));
However, I get the error "Cannot make a static reference to the non-static method open(File) from the type Desktop" on the Desktop.open command.
What should I do? Is Desktop.Open the right way to go about this? If not, what is the right way to go about it?
Thanks in advance.

That has helped greatly, but I cannot pass command line arguments to it.
Using :
try {
    Desktop.getDesktop().open(new File("C:\\eep.exe"));
catch (Exception e) {
   System.out.println("Error executing.");
}I can execute eep.exe, but when I try to pass command line arguments to it, such as
Desktop.getDesktop().open(new File("C:\\eep.exe" + " " + filename));it fails, get caught and prints "Error Executing."
I have also tried loading the program, as well as some command line arguments into an array of strings :
String[] cmdArray = {"C:\\eep.exe", filename};
Desktop.getDesktop().open(new File(cmdArray));But it gives me the error "The constructor File(String[]) is undefined" on the
new File (cmdArray)part of the command.

Problem using extension manager CS5 with command line

Hi All,
I had posted my question here : http://forums.adobe.com/message/4695419#4695419, but was advised to do so here as well..
I have a requirement to get the path of all the installed Extension Managers on any Windows system for the purpose of installing an extension.. I thought, there would be no problem in getting the path from the registry. There was no problem in Win XP, but the same does not work for Win 7.. I googled, and found alternate ways to get the path.
Here is the link : http://forums.adobe.com/thread/851359. I followed the instructions in this post, but failed to get this working for CS5 as mentioned in my previous thread... No problem for CS5.1 and CS6.. Why is that?
I want to get this working for CS5, CS5.1, CS6... How can I get the path of all the Extension Manager versions installed on a Windows system?
Please refer to the following screenshots to get a better understanding of my problem,
I created a jsx file named "Result.jsx", which I saved in my D drive, with the following code,
resultFile = new File("D:/result.log");
resultFile.open("w");
resultFile.write(BridgeTalk.__diagnostics__);
resultFile.close();
If I run this directly from ESTK CS5, there is no problem, and I get the result.log file. I tried to execute this script via command line as shown in the screenshot,
On executing the above, I got the following error,
What is going wrong?
Please help!

I am sorry for the poor documentation of Extension Manager which causes you so much trouble.
1. You can use BridgeTalk API to ask specific version of Extension Manager to do something. There is sample in packaging_extension.pdf about this. You don't need to know the installation path of Extension Manager. One thing to note is that the value of bt.target is version specific, i.e. "exman-5.0", "exman-5.5" send this message to different version of Extension Manager, so you can change this value to install/enable/disable/remove extensions using different version of Extension Manager. More detailed documentation of BridgeTalk can be found by clicking "Help" menu then clicking "Javascript Tools Guide CS5" in "Adobe ExtendScript Toolkit CS5".
2. Specific version of Extension Manager only manage extensions for corresponding version of product. You should use Extension Manager CS5 to install extensions for Photoshop CS5. The reason that the extension you installed for Photoshop CS5.1 using Extension Manager CS5.5 is displayed for Photoshop CS5 in Extension Manager CS5 is that two versions of Photoshop specified the same directory for Extension Manager to manage extensions. This is a defect and will cause some problems if multiple versions of Photoshop co-existed in one machine. But "to find previous (CS5) extension manager and to enable it" should work for you, I guess you use command line to enable it and specify wrong product name (see #3) so that it doesn't work.
3. When using command line, you should specify "product" attribute with the name displayed at the left panel of Extension Manager. So "Photoshop CS5 32" is correct. Remember to enclose it with double quote because of existence of space character.
4. As above mentioned, use display name of Photoshop, and call proper version of Extension Manager by BridgeTalk.

SQL script with a prompt functionality.

Hello experts,
I tried searching this on the net but was unsucessful...
Bascially I need to update an sql script with a prompt functionality..Basically I would like a user prompt that would enter 'Yes or No' to compile invalid objects using utlrp.
If Yes, it should compile it
If No it should exit out...
Can anyone please help.. Need to do this today.
Edited by: user568296 on Oct 2, 2009 8:18 AM

Hi,
As someone suggested, you're probably better off doing this at the OS level.
SQL*Plus does not have any good mechanism for conditional branching. One trick you can do in SQL*Plus is to run one script from another by saying <tt>@@filename</tt>. By using a substitution variable (which can be defined based on the results of a query) in place of a literal filename, you can make this dynamic.
For example, the following script runs either
recompile.sql or
goodbye.sql
based on the answer to a prompt:
ACCEPT     recompile_now      PROMPT        'Do you want to recompile objects now? '
COLUMN     next_script_col        NEW_VAL next_script
SELECT     CASE
          WHEN UPPER ('&recompile_now') LIKE 'Y%'
          THEN 'recompile'
          ELSE 'goodbye'
     END     AS next_script_col
FROM     dual;
@@&next_script<tt>@@filename</tt> assumes filename.sql is on the same directory as the calling script. You could also give a full path name using only one @-sign:
<tt>@pathname</tt>

Launch executable with command line arguments

I have a programmer that I need to launch in my cvi code. I tried the system command and lauchexecutable command but cannot get the programmer to lauch correctly. If I run it from the command prompt or create a windows shortcut it works fine. Here is the shortcut I created:
C:\TPD\SAVS20P3\asix\up\up.exe /e c:\tpd\savs20p3\q33.hex/erase /q /p
I'm trying to run the up.exe software with /e c:\tpd\v20_hex\v20.hex /erase /q /p as the command line paramters.
I tried the following code which created the above path with command line
strcpy(filename,"C:\\tpd\\savs20p3\\asix\\up\\up.exe /e c:\\tpd\\savs20p3\\hex_ee\\"); ///e c:\\tpd\\savs20p3\\hex_ee\\"");
strcat(filename, hfile);//hex file name will change dynamically
strcat(filename, "/q /p");
I then tried LaunchExecutable(filename) and system(filename). The system functions gives an error. Its trying to lauch the /e c:\tpd\v20_hex\v20.hex file
any suggestions. I beieve its a simple syntax error.

Well, apart evident typos in the code you posted, which is not creating the command line you stated, I can only think that before "/q" you should add a space to separate the option from the filename.
This code should create the correct command line:
strcpy (hfile, "c:\\tpd\\v20_hex\\v20.hex");
strcpy (filename, "C:\\tpd\\savs20p3\\asix\\up\\up.exe /e ");
strcat (filename, hfile);
strcat (filename, " /erase /q /p");

Running a script in command line

Hi all
Firstly id like to say I am just starting ORACLE 11g with no prior database experience. i currently have lectures once a week. I am however stuck with a problem. I am trying to access my uni database from home so i can do some work, apparently i can only access it via command prompt (wich is fine by me) I started by downloading a secure shell at www.putty.org and i managed to log on to my university test database from my laptop at home. However, i have a script file createHR.sql which is stored in my C:\ORACLE directory wich i am trying to access so i can load my test tables and start practising with them.
i use at command line
SQL> C:\ORACLE\createHr and i get SP2-0310:unable to login to file "C:\ORACLE\create HR.sql"
normally this should load and execute the script – as with the browser method prompts will indicate that tables are being created and test data added.
I am now officially fustrated as i cannot get any practise done, any help offered will be most welcome.
Regards
Claude

It is just a 'dumb termnal' connection to the server os. It simply opened an OS session on the server. Everything you do in that putty session is executed at the server, and has no knowledge whatsoever of anything on your local machine.
However, i have a script file createHR.sql which is stored in my C:\ORACLE directory wich i am trying to access so i can load my test tables and start practising with them.
i use at command line
SQL> C:\ORACLE\createHr and i get SP2-0310:unable to login to file "C:\ORACLE\create HR.sql"
So I think I can assume that once you got your OS session on the server, you were able to start sqlplus (again, executing on the server). It is unclear whether or not you actually got logged on to the database. The message "SP2-0310:unable to login" seems to indicate not. However, remember that this is all on the server. So even if you did actually connect to the database, once you told sqlplus to execute "c:\ORACLE\create HR.sql" it would have choked, because the server knows nothing about your local c: drive. And to add icing to the cake, if that sever is running a real OS (not windows) it will think that space in the file name is a delimiter between command line parms, and so thing the file name is 'create' and you want to pass the value 'HR.sql' to "create" to do with as it sees fit.
normally this should load and execute the script – as with the browser method prompts will indicate that tables are being created and test data added.
I am now officially fustrated as i cannot get any practise done, any help offered will be most welcome.

How to change a setting in the Java Control Panel with command line

Hi,
I am trying to figure out how to change a setting in the Java Control Panel with command line or with a script. I want to enable "Use SSL 2.0 compatible ClientHello format"
I can't seem to find any documentation on how to change settings in the Java Control Panel via the command line
Edited by: 897133 on Nov 14, 2011 7:15 AM

OK figured it out. This is for the next person seeking the same solution.
When you click on the Java Control Panel (found in the Control panel) in any version of Windows, it first looks for a System Wide Java Configuration (found here: C:\Windows\Sun\Java\Deployment). At this point you must be wondering why you don't have this folder (C:\Windows\Sun\Java\Deployment) or why its empty. Well, for an enterprise environment, you have to create it and place something in it - it doesn't exist by default. So you'll need a script (I used Autoit) to create the directory structure and place the the two files into it. The two files are "deployment.properties" and "deployment.config".
Example: When you click on the Java Control Panel it first checks to see if this directory exists (C:\Windows\Sun\Java\Deployment) and then checks if there is a "deployment.config". If there is one it opens it and reads it. If it doesn't exist, Java creates user settings found here C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\LocalLow\Sun\Java\Deployment on Windows 7.
__deployment.config__
It should look like this inside:
*#deployment.config*
*#Mon Nov 14 13:06:38 AST 2011*
*# The First line below specifies if this config is mandatory which is simple enough*
*# The second line just tells Java where to the properties of your Java Configuration*
*# NOTE: These java settings will be applied to each user file and will overwrite existing ones*
deployment.system.config.mandatory=True
deployment.system.config=file\:C\:/WINDOWS/Sun/Java/Deployment/deployment.properties
If you look in C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\LocalLow\Sun\Java\Deployment on Windows 7 for example you will find "deployment.properties". You can use this as your default example and add your settings to it.
How?
Easy. If you want to add *"Use SSL 2.0 compatible ClientHello format"*
Add this line:
deployment.security.SSLv2Hello=true
Maybe you want to disable Java update (which is a big problem for enterprises)
Add these lines:
deployment.javaws.autodownload=NEVER
deployment.javaws.autodownload.locked=
Below is a basic AutoIt script you could use (It compiles the files into the executable. When you compile the script the two Java files must be in the directory you specify in the FileInstall line, which can be anything you choose. It will also create your directory structure):
#NoTrayIcon
#RequireAdmin
#Region ;**** Directives created by AutoIt3Wrapper_GUI ****
#AutoIt3Wrapper_UseX64=n
#EndRegion ;**** Directives created by AutoIt3Wrapper_GUI ****
Func _JavaConfig()
     $ConfigFile_1 = @TempDir & "\deployment.properties"
     $ConfigFile_2 = @TempDir & "\deployment.config"
     FileInstall ("D:\My Documents\Autoit\Java config\deployment.properties", $ConfigFile_1)
FileInstall ("D:\My Documents\Autoit\Java config\deployment.config", $ConfigFile_2)
     FileCopy($ConfigFile_1, @WindowsDir & "\Sun\Java\Deployment\", 9)
     FileCopy($ConfigFile_2, @WindowsDir & "\Sun\Java\Deployment\", 9)
     Sleep(10000)
     FileDelete(@TempDir & "\deployment.properties")
     FileDelete(@TempDir & "\deployment.config")
EndFunc
_JavaConfig()
Now if you have SCUP and have setup Self Cert for your organization, you just need to create a SCUP update for JRE.

Error to execute the script through command prompt

I tried to execute the script through command prompt. I got some following error. Could you please advice me how to rectify this.
cscript D:\JS\Test.js
Microsoft (R) Windows Script Host Version 5.6
Copyright (C) Microsoft Corporation 1996-2001. All rights reserved.
D:\JS\Test.js(1, 1) Microsoft JScript runtime error: 'app' is undefined.
Thanks,

I haven't use CS for quite some time and file associations may not work with the command prompt.
You can try using Windows Explorer to browse to a .js file then right click on that file. From the popup menu choose Open With. Even if you see Photoshop in the file list choose Browse at the bottom. Browse to Photoshop and make sure to check 'Always use selected program...'
If that doesn't work you will need to create an action that runs your script and make a droplet from that action. You can then use the droplet in the command prompt. You may also need to create a 'dummy' image file to launch the droplet with if you script doesn't require an open document at startup. See http://www.ps-scripts.com/bb/viewtopic.php?t=967

Script or command line to comment out multiple lines in flat files

I am looking for a way to go through multiple flat files within the same directory for the occurance of a server name and if found to insert a comment (#) at the beginning of the line. Currently, I am grepping for the server name within the directory and then doing a vi on each individual flat file to comment out the line. The server name is separated by the pipe (|) symbol and each line of every file is in this format:
webservers:WEBSERVER|Env Name|servername|application name
So, in the above, I am grepping for the servername part and if found in there, I want to change the line to:
#webservers:WEBSERVER|Env Name|servername|application name
I would think there would be a way of doing this either with command line Perl or with maybe awk or sed. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

You could do something like this with a ksh shell script:
#!/usr/bin/ksh
for file in `ls`; do
echo $file
sed 's/^webserver/#webserver/g' $file > $file.parsed; mv $file.parsed $file
doneThis will go through everyfile in the directory and search for "start of line" webserver and replace it with "#webserver". Then the file will get move back to the original file name.
If you just want to change certain files ie. only filenames with the word "server" in it, then change:
for file in `ls`; do to something like
for file in `ls *server*`; doHope this help...
Cheers

How to execute IDC services from command line

Hey Guys,
is there some way we can execute IDC Services from command prompt.
your any pointers will be highly appriciated.
regards,
sapan
Edited by: sapan on Mar 9, 2009 7:26 AM

Hey sapan,
You can use IdcCommand to execute services from the command line. The process is as follows:
1. Create a text file with the services calls you want to make, the definitions are in hda format:
@Properties LocalData
IdcService=UPDATE_DOCINFO
dID=1
dDocName=000001
dDocType=MyType
dSecurityGroup=Public
dRevLabel=1
dDocAuthor=sysadmin
dDocTitle=My Title
@end
<<EOD>>
(Note: for multiple entries in the file <<EOD>> is very important)
2. Execute IdcCommand from the <content server install>/bin directory:
IdcCommand -f image_update.hda -u sysadmin -l c:\idccommand.log
Options:
-f = file with service definitions
-u = user to run as
-l (lowercase L) = location for log of execution
More detailed documentation can be found in the Idc Command Reference (idc_command_reference_10en.pdf).
Hope that helps,

I have multi-page PDF documents (created with R [R-project.org]) from which I convert a single page to TIFF. Is there some means to execute this from a command line? Presumably, I would need arguments for (at least) input file name, output format, and pages.
Any help would be appreciated.
