Foramtting of the query received

Hi when i run the query
select 'rahul' from dual it gives me
rahul
rahul
however
when i say something like select rpad('rahul',3) from dual it gives me
rpad('rahul',3)
rah
the dotted lines is very longer in length this time which i don't want .
Can we decrease the number of dots coming below the heading

use alias
SQL> select rpad('rahul',3) name from dual;
NAME
rah
OR something like this,
SQL> column rpad('rahul',3) format a5
SQL> select rpad('rahul',3) from dual;
RPAD(
rah
SQL>
or
SQL> column rpad('rahul',3) format a3;
SQL> select rpad('rahul',3) from dual;
RPA
rah

Need to install only the query for fi account receivables standard data ?

Hi all,
I need to insall only the query for the standard business content for fi_ar in bw 3.5 ?
i have selected the cube and then in grouping i have selected data flow afterwards only.
And i have selected the queries only. but the cube is selected again. Should i uncheck the cube and install only the queries and transport it?
Pls guide me on this!!
Thanks
Pooja

Hi,
If the required cube is already avaialble and continue with the existing design, you can uncheck the cube and install only queries. Check all the prerequisites before installing queries like used infoobjects, other targets if any.
Hope this helps,

Any time you would like to explore this further run this code:
SELECT 1 FROM dual
WHERE regexp_like(' ','^*[ ]*a');but not on a production box because you are going to experience an extreme tuning event with zero i/o.
And when I say "extreme" I mean "EXTREME!"
You've been warned.I think you just need a faster server.

I am not sure that this is a good example - the query either executes very fast, or never has a chance to start executing. But, it might still make your point physical I/O is not always the problem when performance problems are experienced.

"The query was cancelled" error after upgrade from 10.1.3.3.3 to 10.1.3.4.2

Hi,
I was using OBIEE 10.1.3.3.3 /. After upgrading to 10.1.3.4.2 , the queries are not running ( long running queries alone) as expected. and so all the campaigns iwh tlong running queries are cancelled and the error message is seen in the xml log in Marketing jobs management.
We have upgraded the OBIEE version from 10.1.3.3.3 to 10.1.3.4.2 yesterday after which the connectivites have been checked with SQLPLUS and they are working fine. But when the campaign has been loaded, the Analytics have received the request for the segment query and after longer run, the task has been cancelled with the error message "The Query was cancelled as mentioned below in the Job Stats

Please let us know the suggestions
So far, the unaccessedtimingrunoutminutes tag has been tried to set 50 under ODBC tag in instanceconfig.xml. and the defaulttimeoutminutes has been tried to set to 150 in the same instanceconfig.xml.
along with that the rpd changes are done. For all the users apart from the Administrator, the timeout has been changedfrom 10 minutes to 150 minutes. But still that way is not working.
The segments was fired with the Administrator login. So , if the timeout for admin login can be set, i assume that the problem might be solved. Please let us know ur suggestions here too.
If that is the case, when we open rpd , only for Administrator user and group, the Permissions button is disabled. So i want to know how to change for Admin user settings in rpd..
Please advice us on the same.
Regards,
Madasamy M.

SQL 2012 SP1 - How to determine a query that causes Error 8623 in SQL Log: The query processor ran out of internal resources and could not produce a query plan. This is a rare event...

We are getting multiple 8623 Errors in SQL Log while running Vendor's software.
How can you catch which Query causes the error?
I tried to catch it using SQL Profiler Trace but it doesn't show which Query/Sp is the one causing an error.
I also tried to use Extended Event session to catch it, but it doesn't create any output either.
Error:
The query processor ran out of internal resources and could not produce a query plan. This is a rare event and only expected for extremely complex queries or queries that
reference a very large number of tables or partitions. Please simplify the query. If you believe you have received this message in error, contact Customer Support Services for more information.
Extended Event Session that I used;
CREATE EVENT SESSION
overly_complex_queries
ON SERVER
ADD EVENT sqlserver.error_reported
ACTION (sqlserver.sql_text, sqlserver.tsql_stack, sqlserver.database_id, sqlserver.username)
WHERE ([severity] = 16
AND [error_number] = 8623)
ADD TARGET package0.asynchronous_file_target
(SET filename = 'E:\SQLServer2012\MSSQL11.MSSQLSERVER\MSSQL\Log\XE\overly_complex_queries.xel' ,
metadatafile = 'E:\SQLServer2012\MSSQL11.MSSQLSERVER\MSSQL\Log\XE\overly_complex_queries.xem',
max_file_size = 10,
max_rollover_files = 5)
WITH (MAX_DISPATCH_LATENCY = 5SECONDS)
GO
-- Start the session
ALTER EVENT SESSION overly_complex_queries
ON SERVER STATE = START
GO
It creates only .xel file, but not .xem
Any help/advice is greatly appreciated

Hi VK_DBA,
According to your error message, about which query statement may fail with error message 8623, as other post, you can use trace flag 4102 & 4118 for overcoming this error. Another way is looking for queries with very long IN lists, a large number of
UNIONs, or a large number of nested sub-queries. These are the most common causes of this particular error message.
The error 8623 occurs when attempting to select records through a query with a large number of entries in the "IN" clause (> 10,000). For avoiding this error, I suggest that you could apply the latest Cumulative Updates media for SQL Server 2012 Service
Pack 1, then simplify the query. You may try divide and conquer approach to get part of the query working (as temp table) and then add extra joins / conditions. Or You could try to run the query using the hint option (force order), option (hash join), option
(merge join) with a plan guide.
For more information about error 8623, you can review the following article.

Not able to create a universe when using nav. att. 0MATL_TYPE in the query

Dear experts,
A few days ago I posted a message in the BO General Category due to this error and I was adviced to install SP19 in BW (3.5). We've allready installed it but the issue is still arising. I am posting this thread now in this category since maybe the other category was too general and this one a little bit more specified.
The error we are having is the following:
We are having an issue when trying to create a universe over a BEx query which uses navigational attribute 0MATL_TYPE of 0MATERIAL (0MATERIAL__0MATL_TYPE).
No matter where do we insert this nav. attribute in the query (lines, columns, free characteristics...) that we are not able to create the universe. We receive a message when trying to create it such as "error without message"
We have other navigational attributes from several characteristics which are not giving us any problems in universes, just nav attributes 0MATL_TYPE and a Z characteristic (ZMATPR) which is the same as 0MATL_TYPE (it is defined the same way, not related).
We are working with:
BW 3.5 - SP19, BEx 3.x
BOBJ XI 3.0 (without service pack or fix pack)
Does any one have any clue on what could be the reason for this issue??
Thanks in advance for your interest!
Best regards!!!!
Cecilia

Hello Ingo,
First of all thanks for your help, since we are really concerned about this issue.
We have been analysing the file you have talked us about. The thing is that a week and a half ago we had to write an OSS message to SAP concerning another issue, and we were recommended to install note 1260004 which involves editing the registry in order to show SOFA logs, and if we have understood correcty, the file you have given us modifies as well the server registry in order to show sofa logs.
Does the file you have given us includes new information in the SOFA logs, what is the difference between what we have changed with the SAP note and what you have given us?
Nevertheless, we have retrieved two logs from two executions (having navigational attribute 0MATL_TYPE in the query from which we want to create the universe) in case you could help us to interpret the informations given since we are not able to understand it. (You can seen them below my signature.....haven't find a way to attach files....sorry....)
Thank's very much in advance for your help!!!! This is so disconcerting.......
Best regards!
No way , I cannot copy the logs since the message format is destroyed when I copy it..... If you need it please inform me and we will send it to you!
Thanks again for the help!!!

Getting Brain Error while saving the query--Need Immediate solution

Hello Experte
I designed query like this.
G/L account structure is defined in Rows. Before explaining about columns Let me Explain u about my ORG structure.
Company codes are defined in R/3 like this.
Company Code
1000 for Local Currency(HSL01)
2000 to 7000,IEL for group Currency(KSL01).
Iu2019m extracting the data as it is from R/3 to DSO and again by writing routine I splitter the data for months(EX: HSL01 is ApriL,Hsl02 May,u2026u2026u2026u2026u2026u2026.KSL01 April, KSL02 may,u2026u2026u2026. Upto to 16 periods) this is R/3 data. This data I differentiated based upon currency types. If currency type is 10 then Local Currency 30 Means Group Currency.
Again Iu2019m receiving the data from Flat Files for subsidiaries(IEAI,IEG,IEEL,ISSCI,IHAL,TTM-US,TTM-INDIA,TTIT). This data I loaded first into DSO by writing Routine at field Level for G/L account to convert G/L Descriptions into Numbers.
After that I loaded data from first DSO to Second DSO by writing to convert respective currencies into INR and again loaded to cube by Direct mapping.
Again Iu2019m receiving the eliminations data from R/3 through Ztable. This also Iu2019m extracting from R/3 and loaded into dso and again into cube.
Now I will Explain about my Report.
In Columns I defined 3 selections for each month. U can observe that in Document. Like that for each month Iu2019m getting three selections and for subsidiaries 2 selections for each month. If we observe total Iu2019m getting 13 selections for India and 9 selections for each subsidiary. If subsidiaries increase I need to increase selections, automatically columns will increase. Now for Q4 2 new subsidiaries are added I need to added. After adding and while saving the query then only Iu2019m getting brain error.
Could any one sort out this.
Thanks,
Sony

HI Ravi,
Thanks for the reply.
While saving the query in BEX i'm getting this error.

How to manage Locale info in the URL path, but not the query string

We are building an application using Struts 1.1 and Tiles, on Oracle Application Server 10.1.3.3...
I know this is a strange question... but we have a requirement to represent the locale info in the URL string using one of the following options:
option 1: /eng/page.do?id=2 for english.../fra/page.do?id=2
option 2: /page-eng.do?id=2 for english.... and /page-fra.do?id=2 for french
We need to represent the 3 letter ISO lang code either in the directory structure, or suffix the page name (in our case, the struts action name)... we cannot replicate this using a parameter in the query string. I know this is odd, but that is what we are told to implement.
Is there any robust way of implementing either option in Struts 1.1, JSP, JSTL etc...?
Currently, we are looking at using a servlet filter to intercept the HTTP requests, parse the URL string, and extract the ISO lang value, and set locale and forward on the request.
This poses a few problems... adding additional action mappings (page-eng... page-fra... page) to our struts-xml.config file to handle lang permuations... but the biggest issue is all the embedded html:link action values throughout our code...
Because all our public facing URLs must comply with the rule, we need to change the html:link action to point to a different action, based on locale.
Very inefficent, and I'm sure not industry standard best practice... we are using Tiles, and resource bundles for all our labels etc... but fall short in meeting this rule with regards to URLs and locale.
Any advice or tips etc.. is greatly appreciated.

The filter option sounds like a good solution. So it can receive the urls and parse them appropriately.
You just need to take it one step further.
Additional actionmappings in your struts-config should not be necessary.
Filter:
- analyses the url and sets the appropriate locale
- adjusts the url such that the next level of the chain does not have to know anything about the locale being encoded in the url string.
Thus your struts classes and mappings can remain unchanged
/eng/page.do or /fra/page.do once through the filter should just look like /page.do to struts.
That should get rid of half of your headache.
Next the issue of generating urls.
There are two approaches I can see here
1 - use the filter approach again, this time with some post processing. Gather the generated HTML in a buffer, and do a find/replace on any urls generated, to put the locale encoding into them.
2 - Customise struts to produce urls in this format. This would involve the html:link tag, and the html:form tag at the least (maybe others?). Get the source code for struts, and grab the html:link tag code. Extend that class to generate urls as you want them to be generated. I think you would need to extend the class org.apache.struts.taglib.html.LinkTag and override the protected method calculateURL. You would then have to edit/modify the struts-html tld to point the link tag at your classes rather than the standard ones.
Option 1 is architecturally good because it gives you a well defined layer/border between having the locale encoded in the url, and not having it there. However it involves doing a find/replace on every html going out. This would catch all urls, whether generated by html:link tag or not.
Option 2 requires customising struts for your own requirements, which may be a bit daunting, but has the advantage of generating the urls correctly without the extra overhead involved with option 1. Of course you would have to ensure that ALL urls are generated with the html:link tag.
On reflection, I think option 1 is preferable, as both easier and quicker to implement, and doing a better separation in the architecture.

Select query received in an unsorted way eventhough index defined

Hey,
I have a table with an index on the file_id column, defined in the same way in a test site and a production site.
The only difference of these two tables is the amoun of data contained on it.
the test site table contains about a million of records.
the production table contains about 17 millions of records.
When I do a select on the table in test site, it returns the information in a sorted way.
however, when I do the same select on the production site, the information is received in an unsorted way.
I want to know what is the reason for this differente behavior.
I assume that the index in production site might need to be rebuilt, because usually a big amount of data is extracted and deleted from the table and new information is inserted constantly.
this situation does not occur in test site, information change is not very usual.
Could you please clarify if rebuilt of index would actually help to get the results on a sorted way, or the only way to
get it is to add an "order by" statement in the query statement.
Thanks for your answers
juliovg

I would recommend checking with your DBA.
From a TopLink perspective I would recommend adding ordering on the query so the results come back as expected every time.

To download the query output to falt file

Hi all,
i have a query which i know will give more than 65k records as the output for a selection.
i cannot run this query in excel due to its limitation.
if i run on web i cannot download this as downloading is happening to excel file only.
The customer ideally wants to download the query result to a text file(csv,tab-delimited etc) which inturn it will upload to MS-Access.
How do i achieve this?
SAP has given response use try using these options:
1.open interfaces to receive the output of a query via the MDX language.
2.open hub tool as it is designed for big amounts of data.(i suppose this is not possible as i want to download query output not the data target contents)
how do i achieve my scenario with option 1?
Are there any alternatives??
Any useful help will be rewarded.
Regards,
Dhanya.

hi vivek,
thnks for the useful reply.
i have some problem with my ID,hence loggin in through my coleague's ID.
i will assign u points as i get logged in.
I did as u said by downloading it to unconverted format.
the file got download to a text file.where the output has
1.header rows(10 lines almost)
2.the values r coming in single quotes e,g:
'144000023073 'TAAS SETTLEMENT CONV 738 '19333000 '30.09.2006 '0.000
how can i remove all this?

Help required in optimizing the query response time

Hi,
I am working on a application which uses a jdbc thin client. My requirement is to select all the table rows in one table and use the column values to select data in another table in another database.
The first table can have maximum of 6 million rows but the second table rows will be around 9000.
My first query is returning within 30-40 milliseconds when the table is having 200000 rows. But when I am iterating the result set and query the second table the query is taking around 4 millisecond for each query.
the second query selection criteria is to find the value in the range .
for example my_table ( varchar2 column1, varchar2 start_range, varchar2 end_range);
My first query returns a result which then will be used to select using the following query
select column1 from my_table where start_range < my_value and end_range> my_value;
I have created an index on start_range and end_range. this query is taking around 4 millisseconds which I think is too much.
I am using a preparedStatement for the second query loop.
Can some one suggest me how I can improve the query response time?
Regards,
Shyam

Try the code below.
Pre-requistee: you should know how to pass ARRAY objects to oracle and receive resultsets from java. There are 1000s of samples available on net.
I have written a sample db code for the same interraction.
Procedure get_list takes a array input from java and returns the record set back to java. You can change the tablenames and the creteria.
Good luck.
DROP TYPE idlist;
CREATE OR REPLACE TYPE idlist AS TABLE OF NUMBER;
CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE mypkg1
AS
   PROCEDURE get_list (myval_list idlist, orefcur OUT sys_refcursor);
END mypkg1;
CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE BODY mypkg1
AS
   PROCEDURE get_list (myval_list idlist, orefcur OUT sys_refcursor)
   AS
      ctr   NUMBER;
   BEGIN
      DBMS_OUTPUT.put_line (myval_list.COUNT);
      FOR x IN (SELECT object_name, object_id, myvalue
                  FROM user_objects a,
                       (SELECT myval_list (ROWNUM + 1) myvalue
                          FROM TABLE (myval_list)) b
                 WHERE a.object_id < b.myvalue)
      LOOP
         DBMS_OUTPUT.put_line (   x.object_name
                               || ' - '
                               || x.object_id
                               || ' - '
                               || x.myvalue
      END LOOP;
   END;
END mypkg1;
[pre]
Testing the code above. Make sure dbms output is ON.
[pre]
DECLARE
   a      idlist;
   refc   sys_refcursor;
   c number;
BEGIN
   SELECT x.nu
   BULK COLLECT INTO a

             FROM DUAL) x;
   mypkg1.get_list (a, refc);

Capturing the response received from the WCF web service method?

Hi,
I am trying to call a WCF web service method with input parameters in an xml file and then receive the returned output data by the web service as response into an xml file.
So far I am able to call the webservice method successfully and not sure how to capture the response data. I am able to see the response data in the tracked message event using the query expression search at the BizTalk group root.
I may be missing something simple in my orchestration(image at http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/getfile/535971) ?
Steps in my orchestration are,
1) Receive the xml file with input parameters
2) Send to webservice using WCF-BasicHttp transport type
3) Receive response from web service
4) Send to xml file
Not sure how I can have 2 receive shapes in series there. I have seen few related posts in the forum but could not resolve.
Could someone please correct me?

Hi Rachit,
Thanks for your quick response. My orchestration is similar to the one in that post. In your post at step 7, how you are able to set 'Activate property' of the receive shape to true? as its the 2nd receive shape in series.
I am unable to post any images or links at the moment. My orchestration is posted at this link http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/getfile/535971
I am able to access the above link using chrome.
Yes, I did use the Request/Response port to communicate with the web service. I
am looking to achieve similar to the one in your post.
Thanks.

Performance hit using "where" clause in the query

Hi All,
I am facing a huge performance hit in the java code when using "where" clause in queries. Following are the details:
1. SELECT * FROM Employee
2. SELECT * FROM Employee where employeeid in (26,200,330,571,618,945)
There is no difference in Query Execution Time for both queries.
Business Logic Time is huge in second case as compared to first one (ratio - 1:20).
Rows returned are more in first case as compared to second case.(ratio - 1:4)
Business Logic is same for both the cases where I iterate through the ResultSet, get the objects and set them in a data structure.
Does anybody know the reason of unexpected time difference for the business logic in the second case?

Since you're mentioning clustering your index, I'll assume you are using Oracle. Knowing what database you are using makes it a lot easier to suggest things.
Since you are using Oracle, you can get the database to tell you what execution plan it is using for each of the 2 SQL statements, and figure out why they have similar times (if they do).
First, you need to be able to run SQL*Plus; that comes as part of a standard database installation and as part of the Oracle client installation - getting it set up and running is outside the scope of this forum.
Second, you may need your DBA to enable autotracing, if it's not already:
http://asktom.oracle.com/~tkyte/article1/autotrace.html
http://www.samoratech.com/tips/swenableautotrace.htm
Once it's all set up, you can log in to your database using sql*plus, issue "SET AUTOTRACE ON", issue queries and get execution plan information back.
For example:
SQL> set autotrace on
SQL> select count(*) from it.ticket where ticket_number between 10 and 20;
COUNT(*)
        11
Execution Plan
Plan hash value: 2983758974
| Id | Operation         | Name       | Rows | Bytes | Cost (%CPU)| Time     |
|   0 | SELECT STATEMENT |            |     1 |     4 |     1   (0)| 00:00:01 |
|   1 | SORT AGGREGATE   |            |     1 |     4 |            |          |
|* 2 |   INDEX RANGE SCAN| TICKET_N10 |    12 |    48 |     1   (0)| 00:00:01 |
Predicate Information (identified by operation id):
   2 - access("TICKET_NUMBER">=10 AND "TICKET_NUMBER"<=20)
Statistics
          0 recursive calls
          0 db block gets
          1 consistent gets
          0 physical reads
          0 redo size
        515 bytes sent via SQL*Net to client
        469 bytes received via SQL*Net from client
          2 SQL*Net roundtrips to/from client
          0 sorts (memory)
          0 sorts (disk)
          1 rows processed
SQL> This tells me that this query used an INDEX RANGE SCAN on index TICKET_N1; the query can't do much better than that logically... In fact, the statistic "1 consistent gets" tells me that Oracle had to examine only one data block to get the answer, also can't do better than that. the statistic, "0 physical reads" tells me that the 1 data block used was already cached in Oracle's memory.
the above is from Oracle 10g; autotrace is available back to at least 8i, but they've been adding information to the output with each release.
If you have questions about sql_plus, check the forums at asktom.oracle.com or http://forums.oracle.com/forums/category.jspa?categoryID=18
since sql*plus is not a JDBC thing...
Oh, and sql*plus can also give you easier access to timing information, with "set timing on".

Problem in the variable customer exit in the query jump target

Hi developers,
we have problem because we have created a variable time on 0CALDAY who is mapped in the cube of the stock with posting date.We launch the query for example with range 01/8/2005 31/8/2005 and the resul is OK.
Then we jump on the other query where the users wish see the result of the posting date for the period 01/8/2005 31/8/2005 For resolved this problem we have created a variable customer exit for the characteristic 0Postingdate and have inserted the code in user exit variable:
WHEN 'ZV_CEREG'.
    IF i_step = 2.
      LOOP AT i_t_var_range INTO loc_var_range
             WHERE vnam = 'Z_DAT_AN'.
        CLEAR l_s_range.
        CLEAR datastock.
        l_s_range-low = loc_var_range-low.
        l_s_range-high = loc_var_range-high.
        l_s_range-sign = loc_var_range-sign.
        l_s_range-opt = loc_var_range-opt.
        APPEND l_s_range TO e_t_range.
        EXIT.
      ENDLOOP.
    ENDIF.
When we effectued the jump the our objective is transfer the date inserted by user in the variable of the query sender 'Z_DAT_AN' to the variable of the query receveir 'ZV_CEREG'.
This step it does not work correctly, this why are different query?
You can help me for resolved this problem!!
Thanks Domenico

Hi,
I think, this approach does not work. Because customer exit will be finished before displaying the result set of 1st report. So the assignment to VAR2 from VAR1 does not execute then after.
I hope, In RSBBS,after assigning receiver, in the assignment details,select 'Variable' for 'Type' of 'infoobject' 0calday.And select '0Postingdate' for 'fieldname' and select 'selection options' for selection type.

It's a good job you're not a computer program, you wouldn't have even compiled.
so, points to note:
This is a forum of volunteers. There's no such thing as an Urgent question here, and it's considered rude to suggest your question is urgent, as that indicates you want immediate attention from the people who are giving up their own time to help, and who have their own jobs to do. It's also rude for the other people who are asking questions, as everyone would like an answer to their problem as soon as possible, so what makes you any more special? An urgent issue is one where a live system is down potentially putting people's lives at risk or causing a company to lose money, or somehow damage their services. Such issues should be logged with Oracle Support, not on the free OTN forums.
Next, when you post your question, ensure you provide all the information that is needed for people to be able to help you. Read the FAQ posts which point to useful threads indicating what information is required, especially for tuning requests.
Finally, when your questions have been answered, it is common courtesy to mark them as answered (and award points if appropriate), otherwise it indicates that you have no respect for the people who are helping you.
If you follow all the advice above, you will end up creating a good question that people will be willing to help you with. If you don't follow the advice above, such as in this question you've posted, you will find that few experts will bother to help (or if they post it will not likely be helpful advise you receive). The choice is yours.
