Hi,
Can any one tell me How to find out the BI Publisher Version from the Excel output file generated using BI publisher.

Take a look at it in notepad or a text viewer... it's just a MIME/HTML file...

How can I find the JDBC Driver version

Hi,
How can I find the JDBC Driver version installed on my Sun Solaris machine which
has Weblogic Server 7.0 installed on it. Is there some kind of tool/command to
do so or does Weblogic console say something about it
Thanks

Parikshit KhannaThere is a jdbc DatabaseMetaData call getDriverVersion().
The best thing to do is to download Oracle's latest appropriate
driver from their site, and edit the start-weblogic script to
make sure the downloaded driver is ahead of any weblogic stuff in
the server's classpath. We do ship a driver, but Oracle usually
has a newer better one very soon after that...

Where does one find the Oracle Best Practice/recommendations for how to DR

What is the Oracle Best Practice for install/deployment and configuration of ODI 11g for Disaster Recovery?
We have a project that is using Oracle ODI 11g (11.1.1.5).
We have configured all the other Oracle FMW components as per the Oracle DR EDG guides. Basically using the Host ip name/aliasing concept to ‘trick’ the secondary site into thinking
it is primary and continue working with minimal (or no) manual reconfiguration. But will this work for ODI? The FMW DR guide has sections for SOA, WebCenter and IdM, but nothing for ODI.
Since ODI stores so much configuration information in the Master Repository..when this DB gets ‘data guarded’ to the secondary site and promoted to Primary…ODI will still think it is at the ‘other’ site. Will this break the actual agents running the scenarios?
Where does one find the Oracle Best Practice/recommendations for how to DR ODI properly?
We are looking for a solution that will allow a graceful switchover/failover with minimal manual re-configuration.

If GID, is changed, will it affect the Oracle Binaries?

Gurus /Oracle Community,
Oracle DB Version:10.2.0.3
OS: Solaris 64 Bit
Production
uid=500(oracle) gid=500(oinstall) groups=500(oinstall),501(dba)
Will there be a change and affect on the Oracle Binaries if we change the gid, value (for example - from 500 to 210) as we are looking to change the gid of some of the servers, which were configured 1 year back.
Any suggestions, metalink doc's for referals!
Thanks in advance

(220970.1)
Does changing uid or gid of the Oracle User affect Oracle Clusterware?
There are a lot of files in the Oracle Clusterware home and outside of the Oracle Clusterware home that are chgrp'ed to the appropriate groups for security and appropriate access. The filesystem records the uid (not the username), and so if you exchange the names, now the files are owned by the wrong group.
The above one focus on UID, but what happens, if we change the GID.
Will there be a affect, do i need to relink the Oracle binaries?
Any suggestions please!
Thanks In advance

How do I check the oracle client version?

Hi All,
     How do I check the oracle client version installed from the OS level. I do know my database version I need to check which client is being used. Is there a table where this information is stored.
Thanks
Shabna

disp+work.exe -V will tell you which OCI version was used during compiling and linking.
Oracle uses release independent DLL Names (Unix people would say Shared Libraries) and therefore the SAP Kernel will dynamically load any Oracle Client Version found in the standard DLL Load Path during startup.
If you have more versions installed on your computer and you are not shure which one is loaded you can use Process Explorer (freeware, see www.sysinternals.com) to find out which one is loaded. If they belong to an Oracle_home (up to release 9.2) refere to Oracle Universal Installers Inventory information in order to find out which exact version is used.
If an Oracle10 Instant Client is used, there is no corresponding Oracle_Home. In this case you can use Windows Explorer (right click on the DLL -for example oci.dll), select properties, the Version Tab and File Version).
But unfortunately Oracle is not updating the File Version every time they are patching something.
An SAP ABAP Server Integrated Resource is the version information disp+work.exe -V is listing (evquivalent to SM51 - Release Information).
<b>Datenbank Client Library : OCI_10201_SHARE (10.2.0.2.0)</b>
OCI_10201_SHARE is telling us the compile/link environment, the number in brackets (only available starting with Oracle10) tells us the the result of an Oracle Client GetVersion call. Unfortunately this one does also not reflect the installed Minipatch version up to now.
Here are some results on 10.2.0.2 Windows X86_64:
SM51: Datenbank Client Library : OCI_10201_SHARE (10.2.0.2.0)
Explorer (OCI.DLL located in the same directory as disp+work.exe):
   10.2.0.2.0 Patch2
Explorer (oraociicus10.dll - the instant client implementation, this version is the one actual since mini patch 10.2.0.2.5 and it was definitely changed in 10.2.0.2.5):
   OraOCIICUS10.dll - 10.2.0.1.0
   oracore10.dll - 10.2.0.1.0 Production
   oranls10.dll - 10.2.0.1.0 Production
   orasnls10.dll - 10.2.0.1.0 Production

   oranbeq10.dll - 10.2.0.1.0 Production
   orantcp10.dll - 10.2.0.1.0 Production
oracommon10.dll from the rdbms server does report 10.2.0.2.0 Patch5 at the same time. compare it with the version information of oracommon10.dll included in oraociicus10.dll. Both patches are included in the same patchset (10.2.0.2.5).
there are two possible conclusions about this:
1. the version infomation is not very reliable.
2. the Oracle Patch and Build environment is not very reliable

How can i find the installed forms version in 6i...?

Dear all,
How can i find the installed forms version in 6i, the situation is we have given a solution which will work in only forms6i latest version, before implementing the same we need to check whether the forms latest version has been installed or not
Is there any way to find out without opening the forms builder..?
Even if we un install the forms from a machine, the forms60_path variable will remain in regedit, so we cannot go based on that and aslo i dont know whether regedit will have the version details and all.
It would be greatly appreciated if any one can give a solution.
Thanks in Advance.
Thangaraj.

you query the registry, the registry has the version number saved, but I cannot remember exactly where and I don't have 6i Installed on my machine.
You just open the Forms Builder and click on Help/About.
But Jan's method is the best.

RFC metadata import error - Couldnu0092t find the branch for version with id

Hi All,
When re-importing RFC meta-data, system returned following error message <i>Couldnt find the branch for version with id = <version id></i>
I am not able to delete the existing (already imported) RFC meta-data. However, I am able to import the same RFC into a different Software Component.
The error is described in SAP note 710998, unfortunately, this note only references XI 2.0
Is there anyway other than these-
1) Deleting a new SWCV and importing it and then import the RFC and make Release transfer from new SWCV to Old SWCV. If so, is there any impact on my QA systems and Productions systems during transport.
2) Deleting the existing SWC and Reimporting from SLD and trying to import the RFC again and redoing all the design
3) Exporting the current SWC and deleting it and importing the same file and then trying out the RFC import.
These options I just thought as an workaround solutions. Because i am not able to try these, as i don't have any test systems for this. Let me know any suggestions on these.
Thanks in advance,
Regards,
Moorthy

Yes, the used structures were imported from an old XI system. But I created the mapping new on the PI and put the used externel definitions manually to the mapping. That worked fine but now everytime when saving the mapping this error occurs. Btw both structures are used in other mappings, too, and they can be modified without any problems.
Which jdk version do you mean? Client or server?
Regards.
Oliver.

Deployment Rule Sets do not properly launch the latest available version from the JRE6 family when the jpi-version is specified by the RIA

Issue Summary
In Java 1.7 Update 71, Java 1.7 Update 72 and Java 1.8 Update 25 Deployment Rule Sets do not properly launch the latest available version from the JRE6 family when the jpi-version is specified by the RIA. We've noticed this with Oracle Forms and Reports 11g where we have forms that specify Java 1.6 Update 20. We used to be able to specify Java 1.6 Update 26 in our Ruleset, but now the only version a that works in our ruleset is Java 1.6 Update 20 which is the same version requested by the JPI-Version attribute of the jar. The long term solution would be to upgrade Oracle Forms and Reports, however this isn't currently in the cards.

<ruleset version="1.0+">
<rule>
   <id location="*.internaldomain.name" />
   <action permission="run" version="1.6*" />
</rule>
</ruleset>
Test 1 (Control)
Installed Java Versions:
– 1.7 Update 51 b13 (both x86 and x64 however x86 is invoked)
– 1.6 Update 26 b03 (both x86 and x64 however x86 is invoked)
Deployment Ruleset works as expected for both URLs
Test 2
Installed Java Versions:
– 1.7 Update 72 (both x86 and x64 however x86 is invoked)
– 1.6 Update 26 b03 (both x86 and x64 however x86 is invoked)
The RuleSet works for JavaTester.org however on internaldomain.name we get the following error:
With the trace logging turned on, I suspected the version attribute supplied by the RIA. I was able to trick Java by adding the following to my system deployment.properties file:
deployment.javaws.jre.0.product=1.6.0_20
deployment.javaws.jre.0.path=C\:\\Program Files (x86)\\Java\\jre6\\bin\\javaw.exe
deployment.javaws.jre.0.enabled=true
Because the RIA requests 1.6.0_20 it matches 1.6* from the deployment ruleset sooner than 1.6.0_26. However, if 1.6.0_20 is not available 1.6.0_26 should match according to the Deployment Rule Set documentation:
http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/technotes/guides/jweb/security/deployment_rules.html
The version of the JRE that is used is determined by the following order of precedence:
1. The current version of the JRE is used if it is available and matches both the version attribute and the version requested by the RIA.
2. The latest available version of the JRE is used if it matches both the version attribute and the version requested by the RIA.
3. The current version of the JRE is used if it is available and matches the version attribute.
4. The latest available version of the JRE is used if it matches the version attribute.
If no version is available that meets the criteria, then the RIA is blocked, and a message is shown to the user. To provide a custom message, include the message element.
As a result:
If Java 1.6.0_20 is listed in the version requested by the RIA and 1.6.0_20 is listed in the deployment.properties file, #1 matches.
If Java 1.6.0_20 is listed in the version requested by the RIA, but 1.6.0_20 is NOT listed in the deployment.properties file the #1 SHOULD match, but doesn’t. It used to match up-to and including JRE 1.7 Update 51 however the ruleset appears to no longer match in subsequent versions.
#2 should never match with our current Deployment Ruleset. It would match if we specified 1.7* as a version in the Ruleset.xml.
#3 used to be broken as well after JRE 1.7 Update 51 however this bug has been marked as fixed. See: http://bugs.java.com/view_bug.do?bug_id=8032781
I have reproduced this issue with Java 1.7 Update 71, Java 1.7 Update 72, and Java 1.8 Update 25 when one of these versions are installed with Java 1.6 Update 26.

I can't seem to edit this post anymore, for some odd reason.
So here goes;
I found this post in NVIDIA's knowledge base;

The interesting parts in this post are as follows;
When an after-market graphics card is installed into a motherboard with UEFI enabled in the system BIOS, or if the system is a certified Windows 8 PC with Secure Boot enabled, the system may not boot.
UEFI is a new system BIOS feature that is provided on most new motherboards. A UEFI system BIOS is required in order for the Windows 8 Secure Boot feature to work. Secure boot is enabled by default on certified Windows 8 PCs.
In order to get the PC to boot with a graphics card that does not contain UEFI firmware, the end-user must first disable the secure boot feature in the system's SBIOS before installing the graphics card.
Note: Some system SBIOS's incorporate a feature called compatibility boot. These systems will detect a non-UEFI-enabled firmware VBIOS and allow the user to disable secure boot and then proceed with a compatibility boot. If the system contains a system SBIOS the supports compatibility boot, the user will need to disable secure boot when asked during boot process
This leads me to believe that the BIOS update that wrecked my setup was 9SKT58A/9SJT58A, which only contains one change;
"Adds support for updating BIOS from a WIN7 BIOS to a WIN8 BIOS".
I've just ordered a cheap UEFI-compatible GT640 from Gainward, so I hope I'll be able to try that out this weekend.
