Export and packages problems

Hi folks,
when I export a db, Oracle logs some problems with sys packages.
My Oracle version is 9.0.2.7.0
Error messages are:

Hi,
I am afraid you may have to run catalog and catproc. If that doesn't help, then raise a SR.

  • PDF Export And Printing Problem

    I am using VB 2005 and the Crystal Reports that is bundled with it. I have reports on my website in the Crystal Report Viewer. I have the tool bar showing the Export and Print buttons. When you try to print (or export to PDF) you get an error from Adobe Reader "Adobe Reader could not open 'AcrXXX.tmp' because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged (for example, it was sent as an email attachment and wasn't correctly decoded)."
    I can see the file in my temp folder on my c-drive and the file (AcrXXX.tmp) does not contain a pdf instead it contains html for the report (including the report viewer). I tried deleting everything in my temp folder and I still get the error. My desktop is Adobe Reader 8.0 and IE 6 and Windows XP.
    The same code will create the PDF on all development and test web servers just not on my production server.
    I have no problem exporting a report to Word.

  • Export and import problems

    i have 2 major problems importing my application from htmldb.oracle.com to my serevr at home.
    1.
    i export my application and thems from htmldb.oracle.com.
    when i opened the sql export file i saw that all hebrew chracters was "jibrish".
    how can i export my application with hebrew fonts ?
    2. i tried to export and import xml data (my tables data).
    the export xml file showing me the hewbrew data but when i import it to my tables it gets ????????? instead of hebrew.
    i think it's the nls lang but i don't know what nls land i need and where to change it
    (database ,enviroment....)
    can someone help me with this problems ?
    thanks
    p.s
    my db is 10.1.0.3
    red hat linux as 4 on vmware 4.5
    my nls parameters:
    nls_language: american
    nls_territory: america
    nls_characterset: we8iso8859p1
    nls_nchar_charcterset: al16utf16
    thanks

    Zvika,
    I have two options that may work for you. First, define the fields that have Hebrew characters using the CHAR qualifier. Example, varchar2(30 char). That allows you to store double byte characters from other languages, and overrides the nls_length_semantics (byte default) parameter.
    Or, you could set the nls_length_semantics to default to char. It definitely uses more space when the char qualifier is used, so it's probably best to override the byte default only when necessary.
    Hope that helps!
    Also, I posted the 'Blogging Tool for HTMLDB' question with the username 'aufan89', which I had to change because my email changed.
    So my new username is now 'aufan1989'. I look forward to your email when you get your app fixed and posted onto HTMLDB Studio!
    Thanks!

    tablespace TESTTBS doesn't exist in the database where your are importing.
    Either create tablespace in target database or
    use show=y option while importing to get table structure and create manually in target database then import and give ignore=y.

  • CS4 Exporting and Importing Problems

    Hey all,
    I joined this forum specifically so I could ask this question.  I have been looking all around and can not find the answer.
    I have a Canon Vixia HF S10, with internal 32 gb memory, and am trying to import directly into Premiere Pro.  Now, I have the media browser set up to AVCHD, and the icon next to the files is that filmstrip and speaker, showing that it knows it's video.  However, when I try to drag it in, it acts like it's importing, and then pops up an error stating that the "Format is not supported".  Now it says on Adobe that it IS supported, and I can import it elsewhere.  I've tried re-installing it, using Clean Script, and nothing works!  I've also updated it every time I've installed it, though I've tried without updating as well.
    My other question is this: I want to export a project as a .dv or DV stream, and I cannot find an option for it.  Simple as that.  It also says that exporting as .dv is supported in CS4.  What's the problem?  Is there something I need to download for either of them?
    I'm running it on a Mac, on Leopard.
    Thanks a lot,
    Nili.

    I am having the same problem. The file extension that I am trying to import
    is .mts - AVCHD format which Adobe does not seem to recognise. I have taken it from a panasonic camera. Camera makes no difference, it is the format in which the file is stored. I have also also opened up
    a customer chat with technical support on adobe. Could it be something to do with missing codecs?

  • Export and Upload problems You Tube

    Hello,
    I started using Final Cut Pro X recently and, after finishing some projects I decided to upload one of them on You Tube. The first time go so fine but there were some problems in the finally movie on youtube, like sounds and some white square.
    Then I fixed the problem into the timeline and i tried to upload it again but there was another problem. I type the passworld, the name and the description but the button "Next" is always gray.
    I think is because of I've already published it on you tube but it's weird that the Aplication doesn't let me export it again. The problem is only with youtube, in fact if i try to export as a .mov or on other social networks it goes well.
    Please Some one help me!

    Yes, if I export the file and upload it traditionally; it works but it's too slow: the upload started 3h ago and reached just the 29%!!!! On the other hand if I upload it by the in-app exporter in FCPX it goes faster!
    I can't wait 24h to upload a foolish movie of 3minutes !
    (I tried even to duplicate the project and share but it doesn't work)
    However, thanks for help

  • CS6 Rendering and exporting, and clarity problems.

    Alright. So I spent several hours editing, and relearning, Premiere Pro for a friends track video. During the whole process everything looked good, nice and crisp.
    I made sure all of my work area was selected> went to sequence > render entire work area. The settings I chose were h264, 1080p, 29.97.
    Then, I go to export > media > and verify all data is still correct. Then I move it to queue, Media encoder comes up and I start Queue after puting the file in the desired location.
    I then go to the file, it is only 16 seconds long (video is about 50 mins, and looks like complete garbage. HALP!
    Video is from a Gopro Hero 1, and I noticed for the source video it says resolution was 720x480, could that be part of the problem.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Further back story, most of the editing was done in CS5, but my media encoder wasn't working so I upgraded to CS6 everything.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Please try this - do not pre-render the timeline, leave it red. Verify what the current sequence settings are, for instance 720x480 29.97. Go to File > Export > Media to bring up AME. Whatever format you choose, make sure the dimensions match the source. It will display input and output settings, easy to look if there are differences.
    At bottom left, choose 'Entire Sequence" rather than "Work Area". Rather than Queue, just hit EXPORT. This ought to work.
    I would suggest a test  - create a NEW project. Import a sample clip. Drag to "New Item" button at lower right on bin, to create a new timeline sequence that matches the clip. Verify what the sequence settings are. Add a title. Export as described above. Check results.

  • Interlace Deinterlace Export and Youtube Problem

    We bought a nice new high end consumer camera - the Panasonic HC X900M . For the price of about $800 this little camera shoots sharp, crisp, colorful, high definition video. My son is spending a year in China and did not want a large camera. Anyway....
    It shoots in these modes I believe:  1080p   and  1080i . So far so good. The video looks great. We get it into the computer. We did not want to buy a professional level video editing system / software.... So we have ADOBE Elements 10 (I believe it is 10 or 9).   (I use CS6 and like Adobe editing.)
    ELEMENTS does not work with 1080p. So we've decided to shoot in 1080i.
    We bring the video clips into Elements. The settings for the project MUST MATCH the video shot... we understand that. The camera has different settings for 1080i shooting. They are HA HG  HX  HE = different mbps. (Here is a link to the specifications in case you cannot read the jpeg) http://panasonic.net/avc/camcorder/hd/x900_series/specifications.html
    So we set the settings for the
    project at 1080i DV. Can't remember if it was 60i or 30i ? (I don't have his computer here with me...I cannot verify exact project settings. We tried a few)
    Does Elements support this camera's settings for video? In this case 1920 x 1080 60i ?  (list above) Can Elements support any of these, and how? I assume so, but if one mode in particular should be used, please advise.
    For testing we shot in HA I believe to get as much quality in 1080i. We edited a test sequence. It looks and sounds great, plays back just fine in laptop software. Then we export. (The goal is to compress down to the internet Youtube best quality.) We first go to export to Youtube / Web. But Adobe will not ACCEPT his user name and password. We cannot log on to Youtube. Yes, the password is correct. So that does not work. Strike one.
    We decide to export to desktop. We try H.264  and try to set the settings correctly, but every attempt at every setting, results in bad interlaced video. Strike two. There are many many options for export settings. We have tried a great number of options.
    Any settings suggestions to make this work? Besides deinterlacing every single clip on the timeline? Or is that the only option.
    Is there any editing software you can recommend - not high end professional - that will work?
    Thanks for the help.

    Premiere Elements can definitely work with video from this camcorder shot in 1920x1080 AVCHD at 60i. It also appears that your cam can shoot in both stereo and 5.1 audio, both of which Premiere Elements can support -- but take note of which you select so that you can match these specs when you set up your program.
    Currently Premiere Elements doesn't support 1920x1080 at 60p -- that consumer interest in that format is growing, so you may well see support for it in an upcoming version of the program.
    Most professional video editors will work with 1080p60, including Premiere Pro CS6 and Vegas Pro.
    As for the different quality levels of your video, that's your call. The program should be able to work with any of them. But if you want the best results, I'd use the highest bit rate/quality.

  • Exporting and format problems

    On my pc, I downloaded the trail version of adobe audition. I have been unable to successfully export my creation onto a cd.
    I have tried everything. It simply wont allow me to export it from audition. The button doesn't work. Also, when I save it in a different format, the audio is not there.
    Thanks for the help...

    Perhaps you could tell us a bit more about exactly how you're trying to burn the CD and what (if any) error messages you get.  One quick thing to mention is that Audition only does audio CDs (not data CDs) and therefore will only burn if your files are 16 bit/44.1kHz sampling/Stereo files.
    Similarly, when you say "the audio is not there" what exactly do you mean?  Is there a waveform displayed that you don't hear, or is there sound but no waveform display...or just nothing?
    Finally, some details of what you're using (Mac/Windows, what sound card, etc.) is always useful.

  • Applets and package problem?

    i've got an applet that is declared part of a package:
    package myproj.mycollection.mypackage;
    in my applet tag i set the code:
    code=myproj.mycollection.mypackage.TestApplet.class
    early in TestApplet's init method i create an instance
    of another class which is also in that package:
    Otherclass oc = new Otherclass();
    when i use the jdk appletviewer for my html file file things work
    just fine, but when i use my browser to open the html file i get
    "Can not find class myproj/mycollection/mypackage/Otherclass"
    is this some applet security violation or have i mucked something
    up somewhere?

    You need to tell the browser that you're using a jar
    file
    <applet
    archive="jarfile.jar"
    </applet>
    This way, the JVM will look for the classes inside the
    jar file.except that i'm not using a jar file - the classes
    are all there (in the correct directory structure)
    with the html file.

  • Edit export and burn problems

    I have a macbook pro 2.3 ghz, corei7, 8gb,1600mhz ddr3.
    I have a 1hr 13 min hd movie on imovie and I want to burn it to disc but it is to large, how can I make it smaller and still keep the quality.
    This computor did not come with idvd and thw mov file is difficult to us on other burn programs.

    I'll see if I can work that out. The complication being that I'm at a school. I don't have access to a physical copy of the software, so I'll have to see if someone is still letting people download 1.2.
    My home system, which is Vista 64bit, handles things flawlessly the normal way. My class of computers here are XP 64bit,a and none of them "took".
    Thanks for the advice,

  • SQL Developer 2.1: Problem exporting and importing unit tests

    Hi,
    I have created several unit tests on functions that are within packages. I wanted to export these from one unit test repository into another repository on a different database. The export and import work fine, but when running the tests on the imported version, there are lots of ORA-06550 errors. When debugging this, the function name is missing in the call, i.e. it is attempting <SCHEMA>.<PACKAGE> (parameters) instead of <SCHEMA>.<PACKAGE>.<FUNCTION> (parameters).
    Looking in the unit test repository itself, it appears that the OBJECT_CALL column in the UT_TEST table is null - if I populate this with the name of the function, then everything works fine. Therefore, this seems to be a bug with export and import, and it is not including this in the XML. The same problem happens whether I export a single unit test or a suite of tests. Can you please confirm whether this is a bug or whether I am doing something wrong?
    Thanks,
    Pierre.

    Hi Pierre,
    Thanks for pointing this out. Unfortunately, it is a bug on our side and you have found the (ugly) "work-around".

    I'm using Arabic Language on my both servers. NLS_LANG parameter on both the servers is AMERICAN_AMERICA.WE8MSWIN1252.
    On both the servers I'm able to insert and select data in arabic.
    However, after I export the data from old server to the new server, the arabic data comes in question marks.
    If I create new table and insert arabic data on new server's user abc it is displaying well. Only the data which I exported and imported is not showing arabic.
    On both old and new servers operating system is Windows XP.
    I'm stuck with this problem. Anybody having any idea about how to solve this problem please help.
    Thank you all in advance.
    Regards

    Let me be clear here. Storing Arabic data in a WE8MSWIN1252 database is not supported by Oracle and will lead to problems. You are incorrectly using the NLS_LANG to prevent proper conversion and your data appears to be okay when you use utilties like SQL*PLUS to view your data. When you write applications that don't rely on the NLS_LANG like JDBC thin driver for instance you will realize your data is in fact invalid. To learn more about the NLS_LANG you can take a look at this FAQ: http://www.oracle.com/technology/tech/globalization/htdocs/nls_lang%20faq.htm
    To migrate your database to a proper character set you can refer to this paper:
    http://www.oracle.com/technology/tech/globalization/pdf/mwp.pdf
    But please do not ask for help in supporting your current configuration in this forum.

  • Exporting and importing packages SAP inst server

    Hello,
    Background: we plan to migrate our current installation server to a newer hardware; we have a wide range of different packages. I could recreate them manually, but that would take a (long) while.
    i wonder if there is a chance to export installation packages from one server and then import them into an other. I looked through the offical docu and found no note regarding this.
    Is there a special directory within the sap installtion server  which can simply be copied to the new server?
    Best regards
    A.D

    Hi Andre
    No, you can not simply copy some folders.
    The official way to do a system copy, i.e,  export from the souce system, and then import it on the new system.
    Then you will get the same version, patch level with the old system in the new one.
    So you don't need to repeat applying all the packages.
    The system copy guide can be found from
    http://service.sap.com/instguides
    - then select netweaver for example,
       -  expanding the "Installation - SAP NetWeaver Systems"
       -   there you should be able to find the sytem copy guide.
    Best regards,
    Thunder

  • Problem with exporting and printing from pages to PDF

    I have a problem with my Pages
    My font will not be embeded in my pdf files.
    I have saved as a ps file and in to the destiller and my fonts are missing.
    I need to send my file to the print shop but they will not accept my file and i now understand why.
    fonts are missing...
    Is there a workaround.
    I have no problem in Indesign or quark but pages.....
    I need help
    thanks a zillion

    The font is coming from a notation software Sibelius 4 and is namned opus
    Hmmm ... Sibelius is a music notation software and notations are marked up in MusicXML. Presumably the font file is an SFNT with TrueType splines, but it is probably not installed in OS X system folders - rather in an internal Sibelius application font folder. So presumably you do not see the font in FontBook and OS X font auditing does not apply to the font.
    Sibelius exports EPS files, right? If memory serves, an EPS is still legal even if the font resource is not embedded. And in any case, we know from the behaviour that the font resource is not embedded for some reason. So how do you get Sibelius to put the font resource inside the graphic ... normally there is a button in the EPS export procedure that gives you the option to Embed All Fonts.
    You do not seem to get this button, though. Or why else would you not have checked it already and the problem would have gone away already.
    The next point in troubleshooting this is that you are not following the path that would let OS X detect that an external font resource is not embedded.
    I go from pages-print-printer- acrobat Pro 8-save as Pdf-x
    What you are doing here is telling Pages to tell OS X to generate a PostScript program within which is nested your Encapsulated PostScript program with the call to an unresolved external font resource.
    So why does Acrobat Pro not detect the unresolved external font resource? Hmm ... did you try the Preflight option in Acrobat 8 Pro? It should provide information on unresolved embeddings.
    I have also tried pages-print-printer- acrobat Pro 8 and save pdf as postscript and put the postscript file in destiller 8 pro with defalt setting high quality print
    The whole problem with EPS and PS is that this sort of situation is possible in the first place (plus, what is worse, the PS program can include custom additions to the graphics model that then fail in the PS interpreter whence Apple GX normalizing, Adobe Distiller normalizing, and Apple Quartz normalizing). You want to get as far away from EPS and PS as possible, believe me.
    So, you have not done what I posted that you should do in the first place. If I were you, I would first get rid of the problem that the EPS is making a call to an external font and then get rid of the problem that the PostScript is preserving the external call.
    To get rid of the problem that the EPS is preserving an external call, simply open the EPS in Apple Preview which includes a NORMALIZER for EPS/PS, and then save out the graphic as PDF. Alternatively, if you don't trust Quartz for some reason, set up a hotfolder for Distiller, make sure the option to embed all fonts is enabled, and convert the EPS to PDF.
    Now replace your EPS in Pages with PDF in Pages, and don't save PostScript to disk but save PDF to disk through the proper procedure which is File > Print > PDF > Save as PDF/X [for your custom configuration of the PDF/X-3 filter considering that no sane person in North Europe prints lowend US SWOP, we use ISO].
    If you begin by telling OS X that you want PDF within which fonts are supposed to be embedded ALWAYS, then you have started the right way. Otherwise, you have not told the operating system what you want to do, and this then leads you into places where you are unlikely to have the expertise to troubleshoot problems.
    So, forget placing EPS in the first place, place PDF. And forget saving PostScript to disk, save PDF to disk. If that does not sort your problem, here is the dirty solution for professional prepress.
    Adobe Photoshop has an EPS rasterizer that has wide tolerances for poor PostScript programming (so does Adobe Illustrator 6 and higher by the way).
    Therefore, if an EPS is posing problems, one workaround is to rasterize the EPS at high resolution in Photoshop and place that high resolution PDF in your layout.
    Take care that you rasterize as 1 bit at the required resolution of the print provider, probably 2450 dpi. When you save the 1 bit as PDF, Photoshop automatically compresses to a very, very small file (don't be surprised if 15Mb compresses to something like 0.5Mb).
    Rasterizing in Photoshop should not be necessary if you simply start by telling the operating system what it is you are trying to do. Then the operating system should be able to take the right decisions for you, and tell if you if finds problems it cannot resolve without turning to you.
    Good luck,
