Exports (from shell script) without password given explicitly in script

Hi All,
I have Oracle 10g2 on SLES 10 64-bit. I would like to do export the database using data pump from shell scripts. Is there any method to hide the password in the script file.
Currently in doing by command:
expdp system/password@database ....
So any user who see the script will know the passowrd.
Regards
Groxy

Hi,
Have you considered the "Secure External Password Store" feature that was added in 10gR2? It uses the Oracle Wallet to store a database_alias with username/password credentials in encrypted format. Then you can enter your expdp command like this:
expdp /@database_alias ...
Take a look at the 10gR2 Security Guide. There's a chapter there on how to set this up.

How do I delete an Apple iCloud account from my iPhone without password, security questions, or email?

For some reason, an old iD is stuck on my phone. My iPhone 4s is nearly filled with documents and data, to the point where I cannot take pictures, and I can't reset it without using this old iD. I don't know why this is now popping up instead of the one I am registered with. I gained access to the old email the iD is under, but none of the iTunes emails are coming in so I assume it is set up under a different email. For the security question of birthdays, I tried every household member's birthday, and none worked. I have tried the password we used on that account when it was active, along with every other possiblility. I don't know what to do anymore and I have very limited use of my phone if I don't get this sorted out and deleted from my phone.
Thank you for any help!

Not without password.

How to export from iMovie HD without losing quality?

I created a movie in iMovie HD made from clips from my camera which records great quality HD video, and now I want to export it and save as a movie file so that I can import it into iMovie '09 as part of a larger project. However, every time I try to export it, the resulting file has noticeably worse quality than when I view it in iMovie HD. I have tried the "full quality" option which exports as a .mov file, but the quality is much worse. I have also tried "Expert settings" choosing DV, AVI and MPEG-4 and have changed the settings to the best options I could find, but still the quality is worsened every time. How can I export my video without losing quality??

Do you mean import what I have in iMovie 09 into iMovie HD/06 instead? I suppose I could but I wanted to add some of iMovie 09's titles and adjustment effects to my iMovie HD/06 project, so it could get quite complicated trying to piece it all together. I may have to do that as a last resort, but does anyone know any way I can get around this?
I would think there must be some way to save my iMovie 06 file as something other than an iMovie file without losing quality... but things aren't always that easy are they?

Exporting from flash movies without quicktime

I used to convert flash movies in dv (for further editing in imovie or Final cut express). With the latest QT update this is not possible anymore (and a lot of my projects are unreadable...). Anyone knows an (possibly inexpensive) way to convert a .swf file in dv or something else digestible from QT or visualhub? (visualhub relyes on QT support for converting flash movies, so this is not doable...)
Thanks in advance.

Buy a cheap external HD and install an older version of Tiger (and QuickTime) on it. Use http://perian.org and QuickTime Pro to make the conversion.
QuickTime 7.3.1 no longer supports Flash media formats.

Design and code a new method to be exported from.... (please check my code)

I'm working on my homework problem which is:
Design and code a new method to be exported from ArrayStringLog (the file is given to me) called isEmpty with the following signature public boolean isEmpty()
I created a new class and named it homework2, here is the method:
public class homework2
       public boolean isEmpty()
// Returns true if this StringLog is empty, otherwise returns false.
    if (lastIndex == (- 1))
      return true;
    else
      return false;
}now how can i get it exported from ArrayStringLog? that's the part that I didn't understand
Edited by: memee4eva on Sep 30, 2009 11:53 PM

I think your isEmpty() method should go into the ArrayStringLog class. That way the method will be exposed by the altered ArrayStringLog class.
Am I right in thinking that an ArrayStringLog instance has a lastIndex member?
You might like to compare what you have with this:
    /** Returns true iff this StringLog is empty. */
public boolean isEmpty()
    return lastIndex == -1;
}

Call a host script from concurrent program without exposing APPS password?

My understanding is as of now I need to link $FND_TOP/bin/fndcpesr in order to launch a unix script as concurrent program. This implies that there will be 4 standard input parameters when a certain unix script is called including oracle schema and password. As I see it now APPS password is provided to such scripts.
Is there a way to execute a unix script from under 11i without exposing APPS password?

Many thanks.
Protecting Your Oracle User Password
In some cases, there are security concerns with passing your Oracle username and
password directly to your HOST program. If you do not want the concurrent manager
to pass your username/password to your program, you can have the manager pass it as
an environment variable instead. Or you can pass an Oracle Applications
username/password for a user with the System Administrator responsibility.
Alternatively, you can not pass it at all.
First, define your concurrent program executable as a HOST program in the Concurrent
Program Executable form.
To have the username/password passed as an environment variable, enter the term
'ENCRYPT' in the Execution Options field of the Concurrent Programs window when
defining a concurrent program using this executable. 'ENCRYPT' signals the concurrent
manager to pass the username/password in the environment variable fcp_login. The
argument $1 is left blank.
If you do not want the username/password passed to the program at all, enter
+'SECURE' in the Execution Options field. The concurrent manager will not pass the+
username/password to the program.

Problem while calling concsub from shell script

Hi All,
I am facing problem when I am trying to run CONCSUB utility from shell script.The same works well when I try it from command line.The only prob I am facing from shell script is assigning values to temporary variables.
This is how my script looks
#!/bin/bash
export PARM5="$5"
export PARM6="$6"
export PARM7="$7"
echo "INTPARM5=\"$PARM5\""
echo "INTPARM6=\"$PARM6\""
echo "INTPARM7=\"$PARM7\""
echo $FND_TOP/bin/CONCSUB $1 ONT 'Order Management Super User, Vision Operations (USA)' $3 WAIT=Y CONCURRENT ONT $PROGRAM "$INTPARM5" "$INTPARM6" "$INTPARM7"When I try to run the above shell based concurrent program it doesn't pass the parameters as expected and it errors out saying "Wrong number of arguments to call the procedure"
I tried my luck from some of the previous posts ({thread:id=2360776} ),but to vain
If anyone has any ideas,please suggest!!
Thanks in advance!!

Urgent Problem in Executing perl script from shell script

Hello,
I've a shell script on one server (source) and a perl script on another (target).
My perl script will check whether the directoryname, filename provided by shell script exists on the target server or not.
My shell script is as follows:
#! bin/bash
cmd=`ssh user@target "perl /home/user/test_dir/validate_file.pl"`
echo $cmd
And my perl script uses a package CU_Functions.pm, which is in the same directory as the perl script on the target server.
But when I invoke the perl script from shell script, I get the following error:
Source:user> (db:ias10g12_mid_db) /home/user/perl
$ sh /home/user/arcs/arcs_conn.sh
user@target's password:
Can't locate CU_Functions.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /local/perl-5.6.1/lib/5.6.1/i686-linux /local/perl-5.6.1/lib/5.6.1 /local/perl-5.6.1/lib/site_perl/5.6.1/i686-linux /local/perl-5.6.1/lib/site_perl/5.6.1 /local/perl-5.6.1/lib/site_perl .) at /home/user/test_dir/validate_file.pl line 13.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /home/user/test_dir/validate_file.pl line 13.
Please let me know if I need to do any configurations prior to call the perl script.

As for the Perl INC, I cannot recall the environment variable that sets that but the following example should work:
ssh user@host "export ENV_VAR=/path/to/include/files:$ENV_VAR ; /full/path/to/script"

Error in calling SQL plus program with parameter from Shell script

My Sql plus program is like this.
set pagesize 0

set feedback off
spool $GEC_TOP/log/ge_ar_statement.sh
select output_file_name
from fnd_concurrent_requests
where trunc(actual_completion_date) = '&2';

I am not strong at Unix Porgamming and i would request someone who can
help me out as soon as possible.
I need this solution quickly and thank everyone in advance.
Thanks.

Can you put your coding between code statements, like shown in the FAQ. It will be easier to read.
Looking at your script, my first guess is that crontab will not find your sqlplus since your script does not have $HOME/bin in the $PATH. From what I understand, running .profile in your script will not work either because variables are exported to sub-shells, not to the shell above. You can call your script with a dot like . ./script which means that the script will run like it was typed at the command prompt. But it will be less confusing to define appropriate variables in the script. eg.
ORACLE_SID=my_instance_name
ORACLE_HOME=/my_path_to_oracle_home_directory
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/lib
PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/bin:$PATH
I remember some slightly different way of coding to handle the sqlplus return codes.
For instance:
sqlplus -s /nolog > /dev/null <<-EOF
connect system/manager
@ssm.sql
whenever oserror exit failure
whenever sqlerror exit failure
EOF
sql_err=$?
if [ $sql_err -ne 0 ]; then
echo "FAILURE"
else
echo "SUCCESS"
fiThe - in -EOF supresses tab's
Using connect will prevent ps from showing your login credentials
In some versions of bash the ending EOF needs to be at the beginning of the line to work.

Btw, if you "source" a script running it like . .script, than an exit in that script will log you out.

Passing params from SQL file to Shell Script and then from Shell to SQL Fil

Afternoon guys,
Have a fun question for all you gurus in shell scripting out there. I have a shell script that is calling 2
different SQL programs. My objective is to pass a variable called request_number from one sql program
to the shell script and then from the shell script back to another SQL program. I will explain why I
need this to happen.
Here is what the shell script looks like which calls sql programs student_load_a.sql and
student_load_b.sql. Student_load_a.sql basically creates the control file (.ctl) which is needed for the
SQL*Loader and then student_load_b.sql reads the table that was just loaded and does the main
processing. My main objective here is to be passing the request_number which is being generated
using an Oracle Sequence in student_load_a.sql and using this generated number in my main
processing in student_load_b.sql to select records from the table based on request_number.
Any ideas ?Any help or recommendations is welcome and appreciated.

How come you are mixing WinDoze script (*.exe) with Unix?
You are aware that you will be passing the password along with the user id to the second sql script?
I will assume Unix ksh:
# Accept system input parameters
p_user_id=$1
p_job_id=$2
# Create control files for sqlload
p_seqno=`sqlplus -s $p_user_id @$STUDENT_PATH/student_load_a.sql $p_job_id`
exit_status=$?
# Do sqlloads
sqlldr userid=$p_user_id control=student_load-$p_job_id.ctl \
       log=student_load-$p_job_id.log \
       bad=student_load-$p_job_id.bad
exit_status=$?
# Main processing
# sqlplus -s $p_user_id @$STUDENT_PATH/student_load_b.sql $p_user_id $p_job_id $p_request_number
sqlplus -s $p_user_id @$STUDENT_PATH/student_load_b.sql \
           $p_user_id $p_job_id $p_seqno
exit_status=$?
exit 0And the first sql script would look like this:
-- student_load_a.sql
-- Accept system input parameters
set echo off pages 0 feed off lin 80 trims on ver off
def p_job_id = &1
col seqno NEW_VALUE seqno
select request_number_seq.nextval seqno from dual;
set term off
spool student_load-$p_job_id.ctl
select
'append into table TMP_STUDENT_LOAD

(request_number CONSTANT ''&&seqno'',
student_id)'

How can I disconnect from iCloud without password.

Hi,
      I have lost my Apple ID password, So I have lost my iCloud password too. I am unable to login on iCloud service. I was unable to Off option "Find my iPhone"
I tried everything but nothing is happen, i cant logout from iCloud, The mail ID which registered with apple that is also blocked. So nothing is option balance, then I reset device to Factory Restore option. But now again iPhone is asking the same icloud account and password. Now this iPhone is useless.
      Actually one of my colleague bought this iPhone 4 from second hand market one year back, he took the same apple ID what seller has given him and he is using it since 1 year, Now that guy may change his password and this guy is unable to use appstore. To put new ID we need to log out from old ID and to log out from old ID phone is asking password, so there is the problem started.
   Can anyone help me to log out from iCloud without password, please...
Thanks
Pramod

From what you say the phone has been 'Activation Locked' by a previous owner - who presumably either sold it to the second-hand market or had it stolen and it landed up there.
If this is the case, only the person who set the lock can unlock it. If you can't get hold of them to do this then the phone is permanently unusable.
Even if you had set up a new Apple ID and logged into that the Activation Lock would have kicked in when you reset or updated the phone.

Update Symbol and Symbol Script without removing from Document library

Is there a way in fireworks CS5.1 to update a symbol and the corresponding symbol script without removing it from the document library like it suggests in the below article
http://www.adobe.com/designcenter/fireworks/articles/frwcs3_richsymbol_print.html

I have done some more research on this question and there appears to be no way to update a symbol script without removing it from the document library, hopefully this bug will be patched in the near future
