REP-0002: Unable to retrieve a string from the Report Builder message file;

Hi,
I've a custom report in which i need to display a large string, of more than 4000 characters. To cater to this requirement i've written a formula column which displays string upto 4k characters and for a string of size beyond 4k i am calling a procedure which uses a temp table having a clob field.
For a small string the report runs fine but whenever a large string requirement comes into the picture, said procedure gets triggered and i get REP-0002: Unable to retrieve a string from the Report Builder message file.
OPP log for the same gives an output as under:

Searched for the same on metalink and found Article ID 862644.1, other than applying patch and upgrading version of BI Publisher is there any other workaround to display a comma seperated string as long as 60k characters, If any please suggest.
Thanks,

Problem Description
When running a *.REP generated report file you get errors:
REP-00002 Unable to retrieve string from message file
REP-01439 Cannot compile program since this is a runtime report
Running the same report using the *.RDF file is successful.
You are running the report with a stored procedure,
OR you are running against an Oracle instance other than the one developed on,
Or, you recently upgraded your Oracle Server.
Solution Description
1) Check that the user running the report has execute permissions on any stored
SQL procedures called. <Note:1049458.6>
2) Run the report as an .RDF not an .REP , that is remove or rename the .REP
version of the report. <Note:1012546.7>
3) Compile the report against the same instance it is being run against.

XML Report completes with error due to REP-271504897: Unable to retrieve a string from the Report Builder message file.

We are in the middle of testing our R12 Upgrade. I am getting this error from the invoice XML-based report that we are using in R12. (based on log). Only for a specific invoice number that this error is appearing. The trace is not showing me anything. I don't know how to proceed on how to debug where the error is coming from and how to fix this. I found a patch 8339196 that shows exactly the same error number but however, I have to reproduce the error in another test instance before we apply the patch. I created exactly the same order and interface to AR and it doesnt generate an error. I even copied the order and interface to AR and it doesn't complete with error. It is only for this particular invoice that is having an issue and I need to get the root cause as to why. Please help. I appreciate what you all can contribute to identify and fix our issue. We have not faced this issue in R11i that we are maintaining right now for the same program which has been running for sometime. However, after the upgrade for this particular data that the user has created, it is throwing this error REP-271504897.

Hi,
Check on this note also : Purchasing Reports Fail When Changing Output To XML REP-0002 REP-271504897 REP-57054 (Doc ID 1452608.1)
If you cant reproduce the issue on other instance, apply the patch on the test instance and verify all the funcionality related to the patch works OK. Then move the patch to production. Or you can clone the prod environment to test the patch.

Problem - reading an abitrary string from the command line in basic swing

Hi,
I'm sorry if this problem is a bit basic, but I've only just started swing in Java. Anyway, I'm trying to adapt a basic swing version of the HelloWorld class. When I try to pass an abitrary string from the command line to the label within the class, I get the following error,
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException: 1
        at week2.HelloWorldSwing_commandline.main(HelloWorldSwing_commandline.java:31)
Java Result: 1I must be missing something because I can't see where the problem is in the following code.
import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.*;
public class HelloWorldSwing_commandline {
    String message;
    private static void createAndShowGui(String message){
        JFrame.setDefaultLookAndFeelDecorated(true);
        JFrame frame = new JFrame("HelloWorldSwing");
        frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
        JLabel label = new JLabel(message);

}Any help would really be appreciated.

Hi,
I've tried changing the index value to O in the main method, but I still get the same error.
I'm running this in NetBeans 4.1, and when I try to run the class I get the error as listed above.
Any ideas how to correct this error?
Thanks

How to search a string from the database?

how to search a string from the database? starting with some character

If you're trying to do this in a SELECT, you can use the LIKE verb in your WHERE clause.
Here's an Example
SELECT obj_name FROM tadir
    INTO prog
    WHERE pgmid = 'R3TR'
      AND object = 'PROG'
      AND obj_name LIKE 'Z%'.
In this case it will select every row that obj_name starts with Z.
If you wanted to find every row that the field obj_name contains say... 'WIN' you use LIKE '%WIN%'.

Returning the string from the SimpleDateFormat

Hi guys,
Can someone tell me how to return the string from the SimpleDateFormat?
I've created the method to do this, but i don't know the exact code to use. Here's my code so far...
    public String convert (Calendar gc)
        String s = convert(gc);
        return // I need to return the s here, but don't know how to code it.
    }BTW, i've already wrote the code for the SimpleDateFormat (so if you want me post that, i will).

How to design and implement an application that reads a string from the ...

How to design and implement an application that reads a string from the user and prints it one character per line???

This is so trivial that it barely deserves the words "design" or "application".
You can use java.util.Scanner to get user input from the command line.
You can use String.getChars to convert a String into an array of characters.
You can use a loop to get all the characters individually.
You can use System.out.println to print data on its own line.
Good luck on your homework.

Strip the first character from a string

i am trying to strip the leftmost character from a string
using the following:
<cfset Charges.DTL_CHG_AMT_EDIT =
#Right(Charges.DTL_CHG_AMT_EDIT,Len(Charges.DTL_CHG_AMT_EDIT)-1)#>
i keep getting the following error:
Parameter 2 of function Right which is now -1 must be a
positive integer

> RemoveChars() much easier than Right()? How so?
Semantically, if the object of the exercise is to *REMOVE
CHARacters from a
string* (which it is, in this case), it is simply better
coding to use
removeChars() rather than right(). That, and it's one less
function call
(the RIGHT() solution also requires a call to LEN() for it to
work).
So removeChars() is "easier" because it reflects the intent
of the exercise
directly, is simpler logic, is easier to read, and - I can't
be arsed
counting keystrokes - is probably less typing.
That'd be how.

Extract actual file name from the filepath

Regards,
ivinHi Ivin,
First, you will need to use double backslashes in your file path; \ is an escape character so for literal strings you have to double them up.
String str ="C:\\Documents and Settings\\abc\\Desktop\\file_Aug_2007.xls";For the next part, you don't need anything terribly fancy; the backslashes in your file should be plenty to find the filename.
From the String class, use the substring(int beginIndex, int endIndex), lastIndexOf(String str), and length():
String sub;
sub = str.substring(str.lastIndexOf("\\") + 1, str.length()); I hope that helps.

I have had my old Iphone 5s replaced with a new one but I would like to know how to extract my old contacts from the iTunes backup? Please explain in basic english i am a beginner

Hey,
I think you will find that you have to have a debit/credit card stored on yur account regardless of whether your have iTunes Credit or want to purchase a free App. I don't know why, I assume its for ID verification or is part of the terms and conditions. I occasionally have to re-verify my credit card info even when just trying to run Update on one of my Apps or like I said downloading a free App.
If you need further clarification all you can do is contact iTunes Support:

Extract the Page Size from the Document Properties

I have multiple drawings of various sizes and need to extract the page size from the document properties of each drawing.
this.info object can be used to extract the title, author, subject etc of a document but there is no property shown for extracting the page size.
Can any one please advise a way of extracting the page size from the document properties of a file?
Any assistance will be most appreciated.
Once the page size can be extracted I will be using a script to place a stamp with onto the drawing depending on the page size.
Thank you.

Thank you for your help George.
I have used the getPageBox script as follows:
var aRect = this.getPageBox("Crop");
var width = aRect[2] - aRect[0];
var height = aRect[1] - aRect[3];
console.println("Page 1 has a width of " + width + " and a height of " + height);
The console reports back - Page 1 has a width of 1162 and a height of 814.
The actual drawing shows in the document properties page size as 40.988 x 28.713 cm.
Can you please advise why the getPageBox measurement is not reporting correctly?

Pass the data back from the jsp page to the java code

After receive event, then call java script function "eventReceiver" and call "form.submit()".
But .. PAI Logic in Java code doesn't called ...
Where is my problme ?
Help me ...
Regards, Arnold.

Hi Arnold,
you should not do a form.submit yourself. Instead you can put a component called ExternalSubmit to your page:
ExternalSubmit exSubmit = new ExternalSubmit("EX_SUBMIT"));
exSubmit.setServerEventName("MyEvent");
This results in a java script funtion on the page which is called "_htmlb_external_submit_". If you call this function the the form gets submitted and your event handler is called.
regards,
Martin

Need help Take out the null values from the ResultSet and Create a XML file

hi,
I wrote something which connects to Database and gets the ResultSet. From that ResultSet I am creating
a XML file. IN my program these are the main two classes Frame1 and ResultSetToXML. ResultSetToXML which
takes ResultSet & Boolean value in its constructor. I am passing the ResultSet and Boolean value
from Frame1 class. I am passing the boolean value to get the null values from the ResultSet and then add those
null values to XML File. When i run the program it works alright and adds the null and not null values to
the file. But when i pass the boolean value to take out the null values it would not take it out and adds
the null and not null values.
Please look at the code i am posing. I am showing step by step where its not adding the null values.
Any help is always appreciated.
