Help with Oracle 9iAS Portal Error-6401

Hello.
The install runs ok, but I can´t run the portal. HELP!!!
Proxy log On failed.
Please verify that you have specified correct connectivity information i.e.username, password & connect-string in the Database Access Descriptor
Error-Code:6401
Error TimeStamp:Wed, 08 Feb 2006 01:19:36 GMT
Database Log In Failed
TNS is unable to connect to destination. Invalid TNS address supplied or destination is not listening. This error can also occur because of underlying network transport problems.
Verify that the TNS name in the connectstring entry of the DAD for this URL is valid and the database listener is running.
THANKS

Hi,
You will get this error when the sqlnet connection from mod_plsql to the database cannot be established properly. Make sure that your DAD and your tnsnames file are in synch and that you can connect to the database.
Btw, 9iAS was desupported last summer. For new Portal installations you should go for 10.1.2.0.2 (+10.1.4 Portal patch set).

Help with Oracle AS Portal Error Messages

Hi
Our Application basically consists of a number of Reports which display data from a database, and Forms which will allow the insert of data in the table that the form is based on...
The application is used by business users.
I need assistance with the error messages that appear on Oracle Portal if something goes wrong - wrong data entered on a form for the database table, some error with a trigger that is called on the table where data is being inserted/ updated etc...
Currently, when an error occurs on the form (when you are trying to insert data into the database), the following errors can appear (this is an example of the actual format.)
Error: Internal error (WWC-00006)
An unexpected error occurred: ORA-20001: aft person ins
ORA-06512: at "RFS.RFS_AFT_INS", line 41
ORA-12899: value too large for column "RFS"."RFS_PERSON"."USER_ID" (actual: 22, maximum: 20)
ORA-04088: error during execution of trigger 'RFS.RFS_AFT_INS' (WWV-16016)
While this error will tell a developer what to do, it will not really tell an end user what the problem is...
I have started to edit the functions/ procedures that are used/ triggered from the forms to display a message in more or less the following format.
RAISE_APPLICATION_ERROR(-20001,'PLEASE NOTE: There is no XXX data for the XXX used. Please contact your administrator to assist.',TRUE);
What I want to know is, by changing the functions on the database etc, will I be catering for the errors, and will the message that I create be displayed to the user, or will they still see the original error message above?
Are there ways to display a more user-friendly error, even if just to say "Contact your administrator..." or something?
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

By editing the default error messages, there is a risk the next patch or patch set to overwrite your customizations. A better approach would be to create custom error page(s) for Portal forms/reports.
Please refer to Metalink Note: 157132.1 How to Create a Custom Error Page for Portal Form.
Thanks.

Do I need start the database before installing Oracle 9iAS portal?

I found the Oracle white paper which talks about installing
Oracle8i EE and Oracle 9iAS portal on windows 2000. Based this
document, after Oracle 8i installaion but before installing
Oracle 8.1.7.1.1 path, all the Oracle database related services
startup type have been changed to 'Manual'.
Based on my understanding, there are some objects will be
created in this database during the installation of 9iAS portal
repository. But this oracle white paper didn't say that I need
have the database ruuning during the 9iAS installation. Do I
need to start the database before installing 9iAS?
Thanks

hi,
Even i am new to oracle application server and had the same doubt that you have.
When you install Application Server there would be two tiers installed, application tier and middle tier, these tiers can be running from the same machine or different machines.
These tiers will have a meta data repository to store application server related data, this database will be installed along with application server.
It is upto you to install "oracle database 10gR2 " before or after installaion of application server, this will be an independent database which will have its own home, but after this installation you will have three homes, ex: infra_home,mid_home and 10gR2_home.
by default oracle_home is set to the last installation that happens so if you install the database 10gR2 after installing application server it will point to 10gR2_home, but if you install 10gR2 before and application server later then the oracle home will be infra_home(if both the middle tier and infratier are on the same machine)
you can always change the oracle home by using set ORACLE_HOME=path/to/oracle/home( in windows)
or export ORACLE_HOME=path/to/oracle/home (in unix)
hope this helps....

Discoverer Portlet provider Register with Oracle AS Portal

Hi All,
I am trying to register the Discoverer portlet provider with Oracle AS Portal. I could able to launch the portal homepage successfully by giving the following url
http://<host.domain>:<port>/pls/portal
But, when I clicking the "login" to login it is giving me an error...
I also ensured that OssoIPCheck parameter to be off in mod_osso.conf file.
Please let me any configuration I need to do as part of this registeration. Thanks in advance.
Best Regards
Venkat

Hi Michael,
Thanks a lot for the prompt response. Actually we are going to provide an Oracle BI solution using OWB, Discoverer, Oracle 10g to one of our clients. And we personally feel that using Oracle 10g AS will prevent many unexpected problems in the application.
But the decision of choosing the portal tool is pending at the clients side and we need to help them out with the better options.
they are also looking for IBM websphere, and IBM has said that they have a portlet factory builder that helps portal to integrate with any other portlets.
Is it so that the ability to integrate any kind of portlet lies with the portal independent of the kind of portlet?
In our case... does it mean that IBM portal can integrate the discoverer portlet even if Discoverer does'nt provide for integration with non-Oracle portal?

Help with oracle 11g pivot operator

i need some help with oracle 11g pivot operator. is it possible to use multiple columns in the FOR clause and then compare it against multiple set of values.
here is the sql to create some sample data
create table pivot_data ( country_code number , dept number, job varchar2(20), sal number );
insert into pivot_data values (1,30 , 'SALESMAN', 5000);
insert into pivot_data values (1,301, 'SALESMAN', 5500);
insert into pivot_data values (1,30 , 'MANAGER', 10000);
insert into pivot_data values (1,301, 'MANAGER', 10500);
insert into pivot_data values (1,30 , 'CLERK', 4000);
insert into pivot_data values (1,302, 'CLERK',4500);
insert into pivot_data values (2,30 , 'SALESMAN', 6000);
insert into pivot_data values (2,301, 'SALESMAN', 6500);
insert into pivot_data values (2,30 , 'MANAGER', 11000);
insert into pivot_data values (2,301, 'MANAGER', 11500);
insert into pivot_data values (2,30 , 'CLERK', 3000);
insert into pivot_data values (2,302, 'CLERK',3500);
using case when I can write something like this and get the output i want
select country_code
,avg(case when (( dept = 30 and job = 'SALESMAN' ) or ( dept = 301 and job = 'SALESMAN' ) ) then sal end ) as d30_sls
,avg(case when (( dept = 30 and job = 'MANAGER' ) or ( dept = 301 and job = 'MANAGER' ) ) then sal end ) as d30_mgr
,avg(case when (( dept = 30 and job = 'CLERK' ) or ( dept = 302 and job = 'CLERK' ) ) then sal end ) as d30_clrk
from pivot_data group by country_code;
output
country_code          D30_SLS               D30_MGR               D30_CLRK
1      5250      10250      4250
2      6250      11250      3250
what I tried with pivot is like this I get what I want if I have only one ( dept,job) for one alias name. I want to call (30 , 'SALESMAN') or (301 , 'SALESMAN') AS d30_sls. any help how can I do this
SELECT *
FROM pivot_data
PIVOT (SUM(sal) AS sum
FOR (dept,job) IN ( (30 , 'SALESMAN') AS d30_sls,
          (30 , 'MANAGER') AS d30_mgr,
(30 , 'CLERK') AS d30_clk
this is a simple example .... my real life scenario is compliated with more fields and more combinations .... So something like using substr(dept,1,2) won't work in my real case .
any suggestions get the result similar to what i get in the case when example is really appreciated.

Hi,
Sorry, I don't think there's any way to get exactly what you requested. The values you give in the PIVOT ... IN clause are exact values, not alternatives.
You could do something like this to map all alternatives to a common value:
WITH     got_dept_grp     AS
     SELECT     country_code, job, sal
     ,     CASE
              WHEN job IN ('SALESMAN', 'MANAGER') AND dept = 301 THEN 30
              WHEN job IN ('CLERK')               AND dept = 302 THEN 30
                                                                 ELSE dept
          END     AS dept_grp
     FROM     pivot_data
SELECT     *
FROM     got_dept_grp
PIVOT     (     AVG (sal)
     FOR     (job, dept_grp)
     IN     ( ('SALESMAN', 30)
          , ('MANAGER' , 30)
          , ('CLERK'   , 30)
;In your sample data (and perhaps in your real data), it's about as easy to explicitly define the pivoted groups individually, like this:
WITH     got_pivot_key     AS
     SELECT     country_code, sal
     ,     CASE
              WHEN job = 'SALESMAN' AND dept IN (30, 301) THEN 'd30_sls'
              WHEN job = 'MANAGER' AND dept IN (30, 301) THEN 'd30_mgr'
              WHEN job = 'CLERK'    AND dept IN (30, 302) THEN 'd30_clrk'
          END     AS pivot_key
     FROM    pivot_data
SELECT     *
FROM     got_pivot_key
PIVOT     (     AVG (sal)
     FOR     pivot_key
     IN     ( 'd30_sls'
          , 'd30_mgr'
          , 'd30_clrk'
;Thanks for posting the CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements; that really helps!

I need help with oracle

Hi,
I need some help... if someone can help its great.
I need to make a statement in Oracle SQL that read data from a file and insert in a Oracle Database ... if someone can show me the syntax of it i appreciate..
Thanks

Okay, I see you followed the advice in that other thread and started a new post for you question. Congratulations. Your next lesson in forum etiquette is to give your posts a more relevant subject. Pretty much everybody who posts here needs help with oracle; if they need help with cooking catfish they've come to the wrong place.
It that other thread I suggested using SQL*Loader or External Tables might be a more suitable solution. Find out more.

Install Oracle 9iAS - Portal & infrastructure

Hi,
I installed Oracle 9iAS Infrastructure in c:\OraHome. When I try to install Oracle 9iAS - Portal and Wireless in the next step, it seems not possible to install this product in the same Oracle home (c:\OraHome). Will this cause problems later ? Where can I find information which explains the general concept of 'homes'. If the products are in different homes can Portal and SSO service still draw information from the same database ?
Kind regards,
Rene Heuven

Oracle Application Server middle tiers (Portal for example) needs to exist in a separate Oracle Home from Identity Management or Metadata Repository. Please refer to the installation guide.

URGENT - Oracle 9i, Oracle 9iAS, and Oracle 9iAS Portal Installation Problem

ERROR :
1. Objects with type JAVA CLASS with more than 30 characters are truncated to 30 characters
2. There are only 30 objects with type JAVA CLASS are installed (instead of 334) mentioned on the troubleshooting guide
3. Oracle9iASHttpService automatically stops after starting the service
Environment :
Windows 2000 Server
Oracle 9i 9.0.1.1.1
Oracle 9iAS 3.0.9.8.2 (Oracle 9iAS 1.0.2.2.2a)
PDK Services for Java version 3.0.9.0.4 (from Patch used to install 3.0.9.8.2)
Patches 8.1.7.1.1, 8.1.7.1.5, 3.0.9.8.2
I installed the Oracle 9i, 9iAS, Portal and the patches based on the installation instructions (http://portalstudio.oracle.com/pls/ops/docs/FOLDER/COMMUNITY/OTN_CONTENT/DOCUMENTATION/INSTALL_GUIDE_9I.PDF)
I tried adding the Sample Web Provider I got ORA-29531 error on HttpProviderDispatcher. Then I checked the Patch 8.1.7.1.1 installation, they are some scripts that need to be run that was not part of the 9i/9iAS installation instruction. I run the suggested scripts(catalog.sql, catproc.sql and utlrp.sql) and modified the jserv.properties to point the xsqlconfig.xml to ORACLE_HOME\oracore\admin.
The error still persisted. From the Troubleshooting PDK Services for Java, one of the suggestion is to run the sql command :
Select object_name, object_type, status from user_objects where object_name like '%HttpProvider%';
which resulted to an object with name '/3334f18_HttpProviderDispatche' without the 'r' at the end
and
Select count(object_name) from user_objects where object_type='JAVA CLASS';
which resulted to only 30 VALID object. According to the installation instruction, there are supposedly 334 objects.
I checked the object_name of the other JAVA CLASS objects, all the names of the objects are all less than 30 characters. It looks like that the objects with the object_name > 30 are truncated to 30 characters.
Then I rebooted the machine, when the machine went back on Oracle9iASHttpService stops automatically after it has been started.

I have posted question on that thread and there is no specific solution from our problem. From the Oracle PDK Troubleshooting PDK Services for Java, it looks like there is a problem on the Oracle Portal installation. I tried recompiling the packages and my problem worsened. Now I cannot start the Oracle9iAS HTTP Service.

Problems with Oracle 9iAS in Windows NT version spanish

Hello:
We want to know if anybody has successfully installed Oracle 9iAS in a Windows NT Server (service pack 6) version spanish (not english).
We suspect that the the language of the NT machine (spanish) is the cause of the following error message when we try to configurate the Database Cache of the 9iAS:
"UNABLE TO VALIDATE NT CREDENTIALS"
when we give the password of the administrator user who is logged in NT.
Any help will be very appreciated by us.

Installation problems with oracle 9iAS v1.0.2.2.2a

Dear all, i had been having a problem to install oracle 9iAS v1.0.2.2.2a on Windows 2000 Service Pack 2 edition for the past 5 days.
I had read through the installation guide and follow steps by steps instructions. but the installer would just stop at 100% "Copying welcome.html or Copying demo.gif". It only leave with a step that it would reach the configuration setup. I am wondering anyone encounter this problem.
I had tried to install on notebook and desktop with the same platform. On the notebook, i have oracle 9i database release 2 installed on it. Thinking it might be a compatibility problem, i tried installing oracle 9iAS on a desktop with a oracle 9i database client. But i would want the application server and database to run on the same machine. Should I wait for the oracle 9iAS release 2 for NT or anyone have any advise on my problem.
i would appreicate if anyone can help. thank you.

Maybe this is a bit of a simple question. But, do you remember how long you waited, when the progress bar indicated 100%? The installation progress status does indicate "100%" for a while, doing some "last minute" stuff, before moving on to the "Configuration Tools" phase.
Yes, as Ashesh stated, Oracle9iAS 10222a and Oracle9i Database can co-exist on the same machine, as long as they are in separate ORACLE_HOMEs. And, yes, the structure you described (\oracle\database and \oracle\iASHome) does qualify as "separate ORACLE_HOMEs".
Cheers!

Which is the best version of Discoverer with Oracle 9iAS ?

I have been told to find the best version of Oracle Discoverer for ORacle 9iAS - for
the ORacle Financials and HR (E-Business suite ) ?
Can anyone direct me to the manual where it explains the integration of
ORacle Discoverer with E-Business suite ?

Hi
You can only use Discoverer 9.0.2 with Application Server 9iAS. This is because Discoverer 9.0.2 is an integral part of that server. However, Discoverer 9.0.2 was never certified against Oracle Applications so you cannot use it to connect and run with 11i.
I would question why you are trying to do this because 9iAS is desupported as is the Discoverer version that goes with it. You should upgrade your AS to 10g 10.1.2 and take advantage of the latest version of Discoverer.
Please take a look at this posting on my blog: http://learndiscoverer.blogspot.com/2006/04/april-2006-oracle-discoverer-patch.html
which lists all the versions of Discoverer along with the correct patch levels and desupport dates.
The integration of Discoverer with E-Business Suite can be found in a number of documents on MetaLink:
313418.1 - discusses Discoverer 10g and 11i
233436.1 - discusses Application Server 10g and 11i
257798.1 - discussed Discoverer 9.0.4 and 11i
139516.1 - discusses Discoverer 4i and 11i

Help with Oracle PL/SQL and Objects...

Hi,
I wonder if you can help me, I am having some trouble dealing with Oracle objects in PL/SQL. I can declare them, populate them and read from them without any issues.
But I am having some problems with trying to copy records in to other records of the same type, and also with updating existing records. I've made a mock up piece of code below to explain what I mean, it may have a few mistakes as I've written it in notepad but should be reasonably clear.
First I have created a record type, which contains attributes relating to a person.....
CREATE OR REPLACE
TYPE PERSON_RECORD_TYPE AS object (
                    Person_ID          NUMBER(3),
                    Person_Name     VARCHAR(20),
                    Person_Age          NUMBER(2),
                    static function new return PERSON_RECORD_TYPE );
CREATE OR REPLACE
TYPE BODY PERSON_RECORD_TYPE as
static function new return PERSON_RECORD_TYPE is
BEGIN
return PERSON_RECORD_TYPE (
     NULL,
                         NULL,
                         NULL,
                         NULL,
                         NULL
END;
END;
Then I have created a table type, which is a table of the person record type......
CREATE OR REPLACE
type PERSON_TABLE_TYPE as table of PERSON_RECORD_TYPE;
Finally I have created a procedure which recieves an instance of the person table type and reads through it using a cursor.....
PROCEDURE ADMIN_PERSON (incoming_person     IN     PERSON_TABLE_TYPE)
IS
-- This is a local record declared as the same type as the incoming object
local_person PERSON_TABLE_TYPE;
-- Cursor to select all from the incoming object
CURSOR select_person
IS
SELECT      *
FROM      TABLE ( cast (incoming_person AS PERSON_TABLE_TYPE));
BEGIN
-- Loop to process cursor results
FOR select_person_rec IN select_person
     LOOP
          /* Up to this point works fine...*/
          -- If I want to store the current cursor record in a local record of the same type, I can do this....
          local_person.person_id          := select_person_rec.person_id;
          local_person.person_name      := select_person_rec.person_name;
          local_person.person_age          := select_person_rec.person_age;
-- QUESTION 1
          -- The above works fine, but in my real example there are a lot more fields
          -- Why cant I set the local record to the value of the cursor record like this below..
          local_person := select_person_rec;
-- The above line gives a pl/sql error - expression is of wrong type, (as far as I can see the records are of the same type?)
-- QUESTION 2
          --Also how do you update an existing record within the original object, I have tried the following but it does not work
          UPDATE incoming_person
          SET          age = (age + 1)
          WHERE     incoming_person.person_id = '123';
-- The error here is that the table does not exist
     END LOOP;
END;
So I hope that you can see from this, I have two problems. The first is that I can store the current cursor record in a local record if I assign each attribute one at a time, but my real example has a large number of attributes. So why can't I just assign the entire cursor record to the local cursor record?
I get a PL/SQL error "Expression is of wrong type" when I try to do this.
The second question is with regards to the update statement, obviously this doesn't work, it expects a table name here instead. So can anyone show me how I should update existing person records in the incoming table type to the procedure?
I hope this makes sense, but I don't think I have explained it very well!!
Any help will be gratefully recieved!!
Thanks

I understand why you are having trouble - my own brain started to hurt looking at your questions :)
First off, database types are not records. They can act like records but are "objects" with different characterstics.
You can create a record in PL/SQL but the "type" is of RECORD. You created an OBJECT as BODY_PERSON_RECORD_TYPE.
I don't use database types unless I really need them, such as for working with pipelined functions.
-- QUESTION 1
-- The above works fine, but in my real example there are a lot more fields
-- Why cant I set the local record to the value of the cursor record like this below..
local_person := select_person_rec; local_person is set to the (misnamed) BODY_PERSON_RECORD_TYPE, while SELECT_PERSON_REC is anchored to the cursor and is a RECORD of SELECT_PERSON%ROWTYPE with a field for each column selected in the query. Different types, not compatible.
You should be able to manually assign the object items one by one as object.attribute := record.field one field at a time.
-- QUESTION 2
--Also how do you update an existing record within the original object, I have tried the following but it does not workCheck the on-line documentation for the syntax. You'll probably have to reference the actual value through the table; this is one reason why I don't work with nested tables - the syntax to do things like updates is much more complex.
