I have an sql query which queries multiple tables.
I have to build the report using oracle discoverer plus...can anybody guide me what is the path to accomplish this.
the sql is following
SELECT COUNTRY.ID, COUNTRY.NAME, CARRIER.NAME, COUNT(CARRIER.NAME) SUBSCRIBERS FROM COUNTRY, CARRIER, USER_DEVICE, USER_ WHERE
USER_DEVICE.APPLICATION_ID = 1 AND
USER_DEVICE.CARRIER_ID = CARRIER.ID AND
CARRIER.COUNTRY_ID = COUNTRY.ID AND
USER_DEVICE.USER_ID = USER_.ID
GROUP BY
COUNTRY.ID, COUNTRY.NAME, CARRIER.NAME ORDER BY COUNTRY.NAME, CARRIER.NAME
when i try to validate this query in oracle business intelligence administrator by building a complex folder the validator gives error and cannot validate...
please tell me how can i accomplish to run the above query using oracel discoverer

yes it worked like that...thanks...
now i want to add user defined parameters to it...
as the folder is a complex folder all the colums i get(in discoverer plus) are those which i am mentioning in my query...but i have to get the parameter based on column from another table User_ and i can't show that column in my query as the query won't work if i include it...
I hope I was able to make u understand my problem...
please tell me how can i build paramters from the USER_table

  • How to connect Forms 6i & Reports 6i with oracle 10g R2?

    Hey everybody,
    I need your help in connecting both Forms 6i & Reports 6i with Oracle 10g Release 2 db, MS Access(2003, 2007) and SQL database(Microsoft Visual Studio 2008). I am a newbie. I have installed all of them on my HP notebook, with Windows 7 Ultimate(32 bit OS) installed. I want to generate forms & reports by accessing data from above mentioned databases. Please provide me with the configuration steps.
    Thanks in advance...!

    Welcome to the forum ;-)
    Please be sure to review the following:
    http://blogs.oracle.com/shay/entry/10_commandments_for_the_otn_fo
    First, I think it would be a good idea if we can understand why you have chosen to use a nearly new operating system yet install Oracle products that are 10 years old (i.e. Forms/Reports 6i) on it. In general, this is not a good idea. Although running such an old version on Win7 can be made to work, the possibility of having problems is likely. If you are infact new to the product, using a configuration where you are likely to have problems may not be a good starting place. Also, you should be aware that Forms/Reports 6i was desupported several years ago. Documentation and other information is gradually being replaced by newer information, so resources for this old version are going away. The latest version of Forms/Reports is part of Fusion Middleware 11R2 (version 11.1.2.0) and requires WebLogic Server 10.3.5 (or 10.3.6) in order to be installed.
    Second, if you decide to stick with F/R 6i, are you planning to run the applications you create in a browser or as a client/server application? This information is important because how you connect to a database will slightly differ depending on which option you choose. Also, if you want to connect to non-Oracle data sources you can use ODBC for client/server or Oracle Transparent Gateway. However, if you plan to deploy the applications using a browser, Gateway is your only option for connecting to non-Oracle datasources. As for connecting to MS Access, I believe ODBC is your only option, so web deployment may not be an option.
    http://docs.oracle.com/cd/B19306_01/gateways.102/b14270/ch1.htm
    There are many other references available. Try a Google search.
    As for connecting to an Oracle database, this is generally easy. For the Builder(s) and client/server runtime to connect, add the db information to the tnsnames.ora found in the Oracle Home (installation directory) \network\admin. If you are unfamiliar with what goes in the file you can copy the entries created for your database. The db will have a similar file found in a similar place in its installation directory (Oracle Home). For example, you might find something like this:
    ORCL =
    (DESCRIPTION =
        (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = YOURSERVER.COM)(PORT = 1521))
        (CONNECT_DATA =
          (SERVER = DEDICATED)
          (SERVICE_NAME = orcl)
    )Simply copy this information to the end of your tnsnames.ora found where Forms/Reports is installed then restart any running Forms or Builders.

  • How to use the Oracle 10g JDBC OCI driver in JBoss ?

    Greetings,
    I deployed ojdbc14.jar in JBoss and I created an Oracle datasource. I have the following questions:
    1. In the datasource descriptor file I have:
    <connection-url>jdbc:oracle:oci:@(description=(address=(host=localhost)(protocol=tcp)(port=1521))(connect_data=(SERVICE_NAME=xe)))</connection-url>
    <driver-class>oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver</driver-class>
    Is it enough in order to use the Oracle 10g JDBC OCI driver ?
    2. After having looked-up the datasource and created a connection, the classe of these objects are org.jboss.resource.adapter.jdbc.WrapperDataSource and, respectivelly, org.jboss.resource.adapter.jdbc.WrappedConnection. How can I have access to oracle.jdbc.oci and oracle.jdbc.pool packages ?
    Many thanks in advance,
    Nicolas

    Hello
    We were banging our heads on a similar thing, maybe this will help
    We needed to convert the wrapped connection to an OracleConnection so that we could do a proxy switch, but maybe you could apply it to your situation anyway
    1-you have to convert the Connection object to an OracleConnection in order to use the method that does the proxy switch
    The method to do this is getInnermostDelegate()
    Once you call this method, you get a new Connection object that can be cast to an OracleConnection object
    See below for the snippet of code
    // now switch the user and reselect
    if (conn instanceof DelegatingConnection) {
    properties.put("PROXY_USER_NAME","peter/peter");
    oraConn =((DelegatingConnection)conn).getInnermostDelegate();
    if (oraConn == null)
    out.println("oraConn is null\n");
    ((OracleConnection)oraConn).openProxySession(OracleConnection.PROXYTYPE_USER_NAME,properties);
    2-you have to put a setting in the xml file in conf/Catalina/localhost that allows you to call the getInnermostDelegate() method
    By default, Tomcat does not allow you to call this method, it will always return null
    You have to change the xml to allow it to return an object
    It seems that WebSphere and Tomcat both frown on vendor-specific methods that do not comply with the JDBC standards, but do allow it
    Here is the setting:
    <parameter>
    <!-- NOTE: This is necessary to enable access to the Oracle connection object -->
    <name>accessToUnderlyingConnectionAllowed</name>
    <value>true</value>
    </parameter>
    Note, this setting was also put in the conf/server.xml file
    Thanks

    LalaUse a very restrictive WHERE clause on "the TABLE".
    Or, undertake some performance tuning (utilizing the previously posted links to provide proper information).

  • How to create new database on Oracle 10g

    Hi All,
    Can any one tell me how to create new database on oracle 10g.
    Thanks in Advance for your help.

    again some confusion here.....
    u said u need a new database in your first post and now you saying u need a new schema..
    one database has many schemas(users)..... ex: scott,sys,system are few of them...
    now it depends you need seperate database for test,dev environment - this is in the case u have many schemas under each database and many tables(objects) under each schema.
    OR
    You just need a separate schema (in same db) for test,dev environment...where in you will have multiple tables in each schema...U need to know the dba credentials of the db to create a new schema.
    ideally u need to have different database...You can create one with out sys/system(oracle users) password as these passwords are db dependent.
    what you need is access to the any machine where server is installed(can be the same mc where you have your dev db or a diff machine) and that will be the machine where your db will be installed (can do it through database configuration assistance),ofcourse you will need windows authentication for this.
    so you login to the same machine or access it from your machine using remote login.
    I hope that is clear.Hope i am not listing things that you already know..Just did it coz of confusion between db and schema

    The difference is, you can't make change to SGA_MAX_SIZE effective while instance is running. Need restart database to make change effective.
    Your can change SGA_TARGET while instance is running, as long as it's smaller than SGA_MAX_SIZE
    to recreate a spfile,
    you can shutdown your database,
    find a copy of valid pfile,
    startup pfile=/directory/yourpfile
    and
    create spfile from pfile;

    Please advice,
    Sushant

    Well, if I had to do it, here's how I'd start.
    1. Get the SQL from the Oracle Report and then create a database view that's more generic based on the SQL but still gets the answers.
    For example, you'd not code many conditions, etc. but the database view would be pointing to the correct Oracle Apps tables / views.
    Once you've got the view, bring it in to Disco Admin, etc. and create a report from it that now adds the extra conditions needed. That way you can use the underlying concept without hard coding things like dates, etc. which you would ask the user at run time.
    However ... as you may well know ... Oracle Reports can do some 'strange and/or powerful things' on the fly and, for example, it may be something like a temporary table generated for the report, etc. so may become a much bigger issue.
    2. If you have NoetixViews views then they'll most likely already have the views for these queries already created as they're reasonable for what's needed in an Oracle environment.
    3. I'd see if there is already a pre-defined BIS view that covers this as well. Again, you're in an area that's pretty popular so if a BIS view already covers much of the same info then you've got a create view 'head start' already. Check views owned by Apps starting with the application plus FV or FG (the one you'd really want) such as: GLFG_Budgets_To_Actuals to see what I mean.

  • How to build and use Oracle workflow with Content DB

    Hi All,
    do we have any documentation that assist us in developing and applying the Oracle workflow (Developed using the Oracle Workflow builder) to the contentDB folder.
    Is there an alternative other than using the BPEL or oracle workflow builder for developing the workflows that work with Content DB.
    Thanks
    Krrish

    Hi Krrish
    From a custom workflow perspective, Content DB uses a loose coupling mechanism based on advanced queue messages to integrate workflow engines.
    CDB has no specific BPEL code/support - but rather requires the workflow engine to be able to dequeue a message from the outbound queue (IFS_BPEL_OUT), and return an approve/reject response queue message on the inbound queue (IFS_BPEL_IN). As Oracle BPEL supports advanced queue tables, it can thus be leveraged from Content DB.
    Hence, you can potentially use any workflow mechanism/tool you like, so long as that it is able to obtain a message from the outbound queue, and respond on the inbound queue.
    As far as Oracle Worflow is concerned, we don't ship with any documentation/samples to describe/develop its workflow processes. Nor do we support replacing the out-of-box Oracle Workflows.
    cheers
    Matt.
