Granting permissions for JAVA STORED PROCS

If I imported a java class file as user test and created a stored proc, how can I grant permissions to all the users in the DB? Do I have to grant permissions on JAVA CLASS itself when I load it or Do I have to grant permissions on the Stored proc or Both?
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
null

Note: I can manually add the file with the command -
loadjava -v -user user/password@sid sqljdbc.jar (pg 261 in Oracle Database Programming using Java and Web Services by Kuassi Mensah)
Which is what I have done to get this to work. But the question still stands - How do I get the sqljdbc.jar file to be loaded when deployed using the deployment descriptor?
Thanks, Ken

  • Java Stored Proc, passing BLOB, not stored in a table.

    I have checked this article, and found it will not suit my needs.
    http://otn.oracle.com/sample_code/tech/java/codesnippet/jdbc/lob/LobToSP.html
    I have even looked at the 4 articles on the "JSP How-To Documents" page.
    I need to pass in a BLOB to my Java Stored proc, but not store it in the DB - My java code manipulates the LOB and it should never go into the DB. I know I could do the normal store, get an id and pass to my JSP... but that is a poor way to implement this. Are there any code samples on how to do this please ?
    D

    WOW! That seems like a very bad design.
    Is it just the compiler that has the problem or is the PL/SQL code inside the stored procedure also affected? For example, if I'm doing an
    EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'insert ... INTO OtherSchema.tblTest';
    Is this going to be a problem?
    The problem with granting the access explicitly is the Archive Schema, which has the stored procedure that is failing, might not exist at the time when the other schemas are created. Therefore, there is no user to grant permissions to. I solved this by granting permissions to the role and when the archive user is created it is assigned that role.
    This seems like the proper way to solve this problem.

  • Can't execute OS-level command from java stored proc

    I've written a couple simple java stored procs, the first of which writes an file and the second attempts a chown on it. I can write the file (which is written as the oracle user) just fine. I need to chown it, but can't. Here's the first proc:
    public static String writefile()
    String fileName = "/joetest/test.xml";
    try {
    File f = new File(fileName);
    FileOutputStream out = new FileOutputStream(f);
    PrintStream p = new PrintStream(out);
    p.println("this is only a test");
    p.close();
    return "create file successful!!!";
    } catch (Exception e) {
    return "Exception occurred writing file:"+e;
    Here's the proc I've been stuggling with:
    public static String chown(String inString)
    String[] command = {"/bin/sh", "-c", "/usr/bin/chown notjoe /joetest/test.xml"};
    if (inString != null) {
    command[2] = inString;
    try {
    Process p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(command);
    return "Ownership change success!! "+p;
    } catch (Exception e) {
    return "Ownership change failure?? err="+e;
    The package is created with:
    CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE JOE.THISISATEST AS
    FUNCTION writefile
    return VARCHAR2
    AS
    LANGUAGE java
    NAME 'thisisatest.writefile() return java.lang.String';
    FUNCTION chown(Param1 VARCHAR2)
    return VARCHAR2
    AS
    LANGUAGE java
    NAME 'thisisatest.chown(java.lang.String) return java.lang.String';
    end;
    And I've granted the following privileges:
    begin
    dbms_java.grant_permission('JOE', 'java.io.FilePermission', '/joetest/test.xml', 'read, write, execute, delete');
    end;
    begin
    dbms_java.grant_permission('JOE', 'java.io.FilePermission', '/usr/bin/chown', 'execute');
    end;
    begin
    dbms_java.grant_permission('JOE', 'SYS:java.lang.RuntimePermission', 'writeFileDescriptor', '');
    end;
    begin
    dbms_java.grant_permission('JOE', 'SYS:java.lang.RuntimePermission', 'readFileDescriptor', '');
    end;
    Here's the error that I'm getting:
    ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: character string buffer too small
    Coincidentally, this is the same error that I used to get when I wrote the file without having been granted write privileges. Once I granted myself the proper 'write' permissions I could perform file IO just fine. Is there some runtime permission that I need to grant myself to run chown? I'm just guessing, as I can't find any permission like that in the java documentation. I have 'execute' permission on /usr/bin/chown and the oracle user can execute the command I'm attempting from the command line. ARRRRRGH.
    I am at my wits end with this. I've tried what seems like a thousand different syntaxes for the OS command and ran it from many different directories. Anyone have any thoughts at all as to why this is happening? I'm just clutching at straws now...

    Hmmmm. Granting 'execute' on '<<ALL FILES>>' to user JOE fixes this problem:
    begin
    dbms_java.grant_permission('JOE', 'java.io.FilePermission', '<<ALL FILES>>', 'execute');
    end;
    My security folks will not allow this when I port to production, but at least it is something.

  • Error when executing statement for table/stored proc

    Hi All,
          I am getting this error when executing IDOC to JDBC (Stored Procedure) Scenario.
         In my stored procedure I have three insert statements to insert rows in to 3 tables.
        This stored procedure is working fine for two insert statements i.e, 
             For this I have created data type for stored procedure with 10 elements and executed the scenario and was successfully running.
        when I added 3rd insert statement to stored procedure ie., when i added 5 more elements to the datatype (totally 15 elements) it starts giving the bellow error in Message Monitoring.
    <i><b>Exception caught by adapter framework: Error processing request in sax parser: Error when executing statement for table/stored proc. 'COGRP_TMP_PROC_1' (structure 'Statements'): java.sql.SQLException: General error</b></i>

    Hi narasimha,
                      This seems to be any error due to incorrect query formation.In your receiver jdbc channel set the parameter logSQLstatement = true.you can find this parameter in the advanced mode. Using this parameter you will be able to see the sql query which is generated at runtime in the audit log in RWB.

  • XML Parsing in Java Stored Proc--Oracle XML Support Installation?

    I am working with a third party product that is having difficulty running a java stored proc that is parsing a supplied XML file. The proc basically looks like:
    import java.io.IOException;
    import javax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilder;
    import javax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilderFactory;
    import javax.xml.parsers.FactoryConfigurationError;
    import javax.xml.parsers.ParserConfigurationException;
    import org.w3c.dom.Document;
    import org.xml.sax.SAXException;
    InputStream is = getXMLAsInputStream(xml);
    try {
    DocumentBuilderFactory factory =
    DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();
    DocumentBuilder builder = factory.newDocumentBuilder();
    Document document = builder.parse( is );
    ... parse the document ....
    catch (FactoryConfigurationError e) {
    // unable to get a document builder factory
    We are running on 9.2.0.6, HP-UX 64-bit. At first, when we would attempt to run the proc, a database hang would occur; now after attempting to install using loadjava jars for xerces2.6: ORA-29532: Java call terminated by uncaught Java exception:
    javax.xml.parsers.FactoryConfigurationError: Provider
    org.apache.xerces.jaxp.DocumentBuilderFactoryImpl not found)
    The vendor says that the errors we are getting when running are not due to any dependency on xerces or jre1.4, and that we need to "install Oracle XML support", but I'm not certain what this means (I cannot find any documentation on what to install). I believe that there are jars that need to be loaded into the database to support the XML parsing, as jre1.3 does not include built-in XML support, and Oracle 9.2.0.6 uses jre1.3.
    So...does anyone have any thoughts as to how to resolve the missing references? Is there a way to "install Oracle XML support", or is it to install the necessary jars?
    Thanks,

  • Parse XML in a java stored proc

    I am trying to parse an xml document in a java stored procedure. Just following my nose, I have developed a stored proc that works fine in development (outside the database using JRE 1.4.1) using the Xerces 2.5 parser. But, after having transferred the xerces xercesImpl.jar, xmlapis.jar, and my implementation class into oracle using loadjava when I call my stored proc the code throws an exception trying to build the document with an error like:
    NoClassDef exception org.apache.xerces.jaxp.DocumentFactoryBuilderImpl
    My Code looks like this:
    import java.io.IOException;
    import javax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilder;
    import javax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilderFactory;
    import javax.xml.parsers.FactoryConfigurationError;
    import javax.xml.parsers.ParserConfigurationException;
    import org.w3c.dom.Document;
    import org.xml.sax.SAXException;
    InputStream is = getXMLAsInputStream(xml);
    try {
    DocumentBuilderFactory factory =
    DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();
    DocumentBuilder builder = factory.newDocumentBuilder();
    Document document = builder.parse( is );
    ... parse the document ....
    catch (FactoryConfigurationError e) {
    // unable to get a document builder factory
    The exception caught is a FactoryConfigurtionError.
    I'm not particularly attached to xerces, I'm really just looking for a way to parse XML inside my java stored proc, so any help to solve my problem, or an alternative suggestion will be greatly appreciated.
    thanks
    Dale

    I looked again and sure enough the xerces implementation classes were missing. I had run a .cmd file containing these two lines, but it looks like only the first one ran...
    loadjava -u ncc/xyz@usd -v -r M:\Database\JavaGeocode\Xerces2_5_0\xml-apis.jar
    loadjava -u ncc/xyz@usd -v -r M:\Database\JavaGeocode\Xerces2_5_0\xercesImpl.jar
    Now I've got everything working fine with Xerces!

  • Java stored proc status

    hello.
    What would trigger the change of "STATUS" from valid to invalid
    for a java stored procedure (status of the PROCEDURE, not the
    java class/source)?
    E.g.
    - loaded a java source/class
    - published it with CREATE PROCEDURE ...
    - the procedure inserts a row into some table X
    - select* from user_objects where object_type = 'PROCEDURE'; shows that
    the proc is valid
    - call the proc, fine
    - delete a column from the table X
    - select* from user_objects where object_type = 'PROCEDURE'; shows that
    the proc is still VALID
    - call the proc, the call actually completed without error! (but the new row didn't get inserted into the table)
    When the schema of a table that a java stored proc refers
    to changes, will the java stored proc automatically marked
    as "INVALID"? If not, when will this status changed from
    VALID to INVALID?
    Thanks.
    Min

    Min:
    A java stored procedure is marked as VALID or INVALID depending on whether Oracle had any problems loading the class file into the database. Since you had no problems loading the class file it will always be valid.
    Now, after you deleted the column in the table I would assume that the java stored procedure would have a problem when it tried to do an insert and it would throw an exception. Your java stored procedure is VALID, it just isn't executing properly and is more than likely throwing an exception.
    Sometimes an exception thrown from a jsp is written to a log file instead of to the console. I suspect that this is the case in your situation. You think that the call to the jsp executed with no errors, but I bet it didn't. You will probably find the errors somewhere in the oracle\ora90\admin\mydatabase directory. Look at the latest .trc file. (Note: the path I gave to the .trc files may be different depending on what version of oracle you are using).

  • Java stored proc from proxy Java classes generated from a web service?

    Hi gurus,
    I have searched "Java Stored Procedure" on this forum but could not find what I am looking for, so I have to post again.
    I need to use a web service and my client app is written in PowerBuilder 11 (Sybase), which claims that it will create a datawindow from a web service. Well, it turned out that PB can only handle simple stuff (it works with a very simple wsdl from the internet) but can't handle more complex ones that we need to use. So I am thinking about using Oracle JDeveloper(JDev) to create the web service proxy for the web service and then load it into Oracle as a Java stored procedure so that PowerBuilder can call the procedure. JDev succsfully generated the proxy and a few Java classes. My question is, do I need to load all the classes into the database? If yes, will the reference to the package work? For example, in a JDev generated class (the soap client class), it has package MyJdev.proxy; at the top. Or, will it work if I load all the classes included in package /MyJdev/proxy into the database?
    Thank you very much for any help.

    What I did to solve this problem was to
    create a simple RMI remote object that
    resides outside the database JVM and that
    serves as a proxy EJB client for your java
    stored procedure. The stored procedure can
    invoke a method on the remote RMI object
    which then looks up the EJBean's home
    interface and invokes the relevant method on
    the bean's remote interface, and relays any
    return values back to the java stored
    procedure.
    Hope this helps,
    Avi.

    Hi Srini,
    This is just a suggestion, but try entering the following commands (in your SQL*Plus session) before executing your stored procedure:
    set serveroutput on size 1000000
    exec dbms_java.set_output(1000000)Hope this helps.
    Good Luck,
    Avi.
