How to call BS Browser Script from Server Script

I have a req. where a confirmation message need to be displayed to the user from Server Script.
I have followed the steps described in bookshelf http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E05553_01/books/CommSrvAdm/CommSrvAdm_AdvConfig40.html
and the same is not working. I am invoking the BS from Applet Server script.
Please let me know if the above steps can be used in our context as it is not at all related to CTI.
For the above config I have selected one of the existing Profiles in our system and am not sure about the role played by the same.
Thanks in advance.

You create a Business Service, then deploy the BS as described in the bookshelf and finally call it through Browser Scripts.
You can't interact with the browser session from the server the way you describe your requirement.

How to call a shell script from a java code

Hello can any one suggest me how to call a shell script from a java program that takes three parameters.
i have a shell script (msp_restore_gui) when i run this script in the command line in a RHEL5 ,SUSE10 and Debian machine it works fine .I even tested to call it from a java program and it also worked fine but when i used the same in a J2ee application where the user when clicks the restore button in a webserver this inturn sends the request to a java file named BackupManager.java where i call the shell script.But here it fails.Waiting for your suggestions.If you want i can put the code also here

yes the script is in /usr/local/mss/tools/backup and the script (msp_restore_gui) is as follows

How to call jpf controller method from javascript

Can any one help me how to call pageflow controller method from JavaScript.\
Thanks.

Accessing a particular pageflow method from Javascript is directly not possible unless we do some real funky coding in specifying document.myForm.action = xyz...Heres what I tried and it did not work as expected: I found another workaround that I will share with you.
1. In my jsp file when I click a button a call a JavaScript that calls the method that I want in pageflow like this: My method got invoked BUT when that method forwards the jsp, it lost the portal context. I saw my returned jsp only on the browser instead of seeing it inside the portlet on the page of a portal. I just see contents of jsp on full browser screen. I checked the url. This does make the sense. I do not see the url where I will have like test1.portal?_pageLabe=xxx&portlet details etc etc. So this bottom approach will notwork.
document.getElementById("batchForm").action = "/portlets/com/hid/iod/Batches/holdBatch"; // here if you give like test1.portal/pagelable value like complete url...it may work...but not suggested/recommended....
document.getElementById("batchForm").submit;
2. I achieved my requirement using a hidden variable inside my netui:form tag in the jsp. Say for example, I have 3 buttons and all of them should call their own action methods like create, update, delete on pageflow side. But I want these to be called through javascript say for example to do some validation. (I have diff usecase though). So I created a hidden field like ACTION_NAME. I have 3 javascript functions create(), update() etc. These javascripts are called onclick() for these buttons. In thse functions first I set unique value to this hiddent field appropriately. Then submit the form. Note that all 3 buttons now go to same common action in the JPF. The code is like this.
document.getElementById("ACTION_NAME").value = "UPDATE";
document.getElementById("batchForm").submit.
Inside the pageflow common method, I retriev this hidden field value and based on its value, I call one of the above 3 methods in pageflow. This works for me. There may be better solution.
3. Another usecase that I want to share and may be help others also. Most of the time very common usecase is, when we select a item in a drop bos or netui:select, we want to invoke the pageflow action. Say we have 2 dropdown boxes with States and Cities. Anytime States select box is changed, it should go back to server and get new list of Cities for that state. (We can get both states and cities and do all string tokenizer on jsp itself. But inreality as per business needs, we do have to go to server to get dynamic values. Here is the code snippet that I use and it works for all my select boxes onChange event.
This entire lines of code should do what we want.
<netui:anchor action="selectArticleChanged" formSubmit="true" tagId="selectPropertyAction"/>
<netui:select onChange="document.getElementById(lookupIdByTagId('selectPropertyAction',this )).onclick();" dataSource="pageFlow.selectedArticleId" >
<c:forEach items="${requestScope.ALL_ARTICLE}" var="eachArticle">
<%-- workshop:varType="com.hid.iod.forms.IoDProfileArticleRelForm" --%>
<netui:selectOption value="${eachArticle.articleIdAsString}">${eachArticle.articleItemName}</netui:selectOption>
</c:forEach>
</netui:select>
See if you can build along those above lines of code. Any other simpler approches are highly welcome.
Thanks

How to call a jsp page from oaf and run in jDeveloper

Hi all,
I created sample jsp and then tried.
String temp = "sample.jsp?";
pageContext.setForwardURL(temp,
null,
OAWebBeanConstants.KEEP_MENU_CONTEXT,
null,
null,
true,
OAWebBeanConstants.ADD_BREAD_CRUMB_YES,
OAWebBeanConstants.IGNORE_MESSAGES);
It worked.
But when i tried with one of the custom page that i downloaded from server it is giving error.
But now i need to call that page.
Its Code is given on below link:
Re: how to call a jsp page from oaf
Please help me to do this.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Raj

Raj,
1. Hope you have placed the custom jsp page (which you have downloaded from server) under "jdevhome\jdev\myhtml\OA_HTML" directory ?
2. Try to run the custom jsp page from Jdeveloper directly and check whether its working properly or not ?
(i.e. add jsp page to any project in Jdeveloper then right click on jsp page and select Run xxx.jsp)
3. If page errors out then custom jsp page seems require few parameters to run it successfully. Pass all requied parameters and test.
4. There is no problem in the way you are calling jsp page from OAF page.
regards,
Anand

How to Call a jasper report from Oracle Forms 6i.

Hi
Can anybody tel me how to Call a jasper report from ORacle Forms 6i.
Thanks & Regards
Bango

Forms 6i client/server? Use the HOST command to call the report. Since a Jasper report is just a call to a url, it will be something like:
v_url := '<your url to the report>';
host ('cmd /c start '||v_url);If it's web Forms 6i it even easier. Just use web.show_document(<url>).

How to call a shell script via ODI

Hi,
I need suggestion on following issues:
1) How to call a shell script via ODI?.. I tried using OSCommand utility .inspite of the execution being successful the data is not written into the new file in the desired format. After processing new file is created in the mentioned location but its empty.
2) I'm calling a procedure in ODI to load data into my fact. But once the fact gets loaded i want to update the log details (num of rows processed,num of rows inserted,num of rows rejected etc) in my log table. I'm planning to use a proc for updating but need to know from where can i find these details. Is there a table in work rep which gives me these info like how we get if we execute an interface.?
Please help me out.. Its urgent
Regards
Surabhi

Hello,
Question 1 appears a little vague, please elaborate. If you're looking to capture a return value from the command execution, you will need to pipe the return value to a file, then read from there.
The execution information is stored in the SNP_STEP_LOG table in the Work Repository. You will need to do a series of joins to retrieve the exact table that was updated. Good luck with this...
