How to do the IP Trace

Hi
One of our systems important User ID is getting locked repeatedly. Is there any way to find so as from which terminal this is being done. Its clear that some one is trying to login by that ID without knowing the password.
Thanks in advance

Dear Sanjay,
Yes this is possible if you activate user trace.
Steps are as follows:
Activating Security Audit
1) Go to transaction code SM19
2) SM19 Create a new profile
3) Select options.Give client detail and choose all options in AUDIT class.
4) SAVE
5)Click Yes(Do you want to distribute the profile)
6) Activate the Profile by clicking on the Activate button or Cntrl+F3
7)LOGOUT and again LOGIN
Viewing security Audit
1) Go to transaction code SM20
2) Select from and to date, User, transaction and Click on u201CReread Audit Logu201D
3) Get the details by clicking read audit log
This would surely work for you
From this you will easily find out from which terminal sombody is deliberately playing.

Urgent : How to do the SQL trace analysis

Hi Floks,
How to do the SQL Trace analysis and any another tools is there to test abap programming then this tools runtime analysis,extended Programming Checking,Code inspector .How to utilize that tools .please forward me
thanks

HI,
SQL Trace Use:
The SQL Trace function is an on-demand log of selected SQL statements that are issued against the database through the Open SQL Engine. The SQL Trace can be switched on or off dynamically. The log format is database independent. Besides the SQL statement text, each log record contains information about the point in time when the statement was executed, its duration, its input parameters and results (where applicable) as well as context information.

Features
The SQL Trace is especially useful for:
Development
SQL Trace can help JDO, enterprise beans, servlet and JSP developers to learn which kind of database accesses their code produces.
1. Performance analysis
Typically, performance issues are caused by inefficient database accesses. In this case SQL Trace can be used to show the issued SQL statements and their duration, thus helping to identify inefficient SQL statements.
Activities
Typically, you should use the SQL Trace when you need to check the behavior of a particular application. This is the following scenario:
Look at the below links, you will get the idea

VC 7.1 SP05 unspecified error - how to read the debug trace?

Hello,
I am trying to consume a enterprise service with VC 7.1 SP05.
Beforehand, I have tested the parameters using WSADMIN, and I know what I have to pass.
Unfortunately, when feeding the same parameters to my VC model, I get a error message, and I cannot find out what is the problem. By reading the default trace, i cannot extract the relevant information.
The error message I get from VC is:
"Error occurred during Data Service, L_SRV Execution"
The trace level is set to "debug", but as said, I am not able to find the relevant part in the trace file.
Maybe someboy could teach me??
Thanks,
Dominik

Hi,
I just sent the trace file.
The service has several inputs.

I am passing parameters on the top level, and then using a data bridge, two more parameters one level below.

How to get the entire trace with dbms_utility.format_error_backtrace

Hi,
I made 35 procedures where test35 is
calling test34 and test34 is calling test33 etc.
division-by-zero is in test1 and format_error_backtrace shows the trace up to test31.
Just curious, is it possible to get the entire trace?
Thanks
An example
SQL> BEGIN
2 EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'create or replace procedure test1 as a number; begin a:=1/0; end;';
3 FOR i IN 2..35 LOOP
4   execute immediate 'create or replace procedure test'||i||' as begin test'||(i-1)||'; end;';
5 END LOOP;
6 END;
7 /
PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.
SQL> BEGIN
2    test35;
3 EXCEPTION WHEN OTHERS THEN
4   dbms_output.put_line(dbms_utility.format_error_backtrace);
5 END;
6 /
ORA-06512: at "ANTS.TEST1", line 1
ORA-06512: at "ANTS.TEST2", line 1
ORA-06512: at "ANTS.TEST30", line 1
ORA-06512: at
"ANTS.TEST31", line 1
ORA-06512: at line 2

Out of interest, do you get any further back if each error message is shorter (e.g. a shorter procedure name)? From a quick test, SQLERRM is limited to 510 characters (doubtless documented somewhere though I can't find it just now) - the documentation says FORMAT_ERROR_BACKTRACE is not subject to the same size limitation, but that doesn't mean there is no size limitation.

How to generate the trace files for remote db link session's?

User are complaining, the db link queries are performing slowness..
how to enable the sql trace session for db link's in remote database...
Is there any way to enable sqltrace for the dblink session ?
if not how to enable the sql trace for entire database level, rather than session based...

An explain plan of the SQL being ran on the local database will review the SQL being passed to the remote db. You can then explain that SQL on the remote db.
I have had to tune a few distribued queries so more than likely the explain plan alone will be enough to allow you to tune the query to improve performance. If not then you can go to the trouble of trying to set up dual traces.

How to create the trace file using run_report_object at runtime

Dear All
using :
Oracel Application Server 10g
Oracle Database 11g
Windows XP/sp3
I'm using run_report_object to call a report inside the form. THis report is running OK from reports builder, however it's too slow when run from Application server.
How Can I create a trace file (at runtime) that contains the time spent in sql and formating the layout of the report ??
Here is My code :
repid := find_report_object('report5');
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_FILENAME,'INVOICE.REP');
v_url :='paramform=no';
v_url := v_url||' FROM_NO=' || :PRINT_BLOCK.FROM_NO ;
v_url := v_url ||' TO_NO=' || :PRINT_BLOCK.TO_NO ||' FROM_DATE=' || v_from_date ||' TO_DATE='|| v_to_date ||' NO_DATE=' ;
v_url := v_url ||:PRINT_BLOCK.NO_DATE||' IDENT=' ||:PRINT_BLOCK.IDENT_NO||' REPORT_HEADING='''||V_REPORT_HEADING||'''' ;
v_url := v_url||' COMPANY_NO='||:global.company_no;
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_OTHER,v_url);
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_SERVER,:GLOBAL.INV_REPORT_SERVER_NAME);
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_DESFORMAT,'pdf');
v_rep := RUN_REPORT_OBJECT(repid);
IF rep_status = 'FINISHED' THEN
V1:='/reports/rwservlet/getjobid'||substr(v_rep,instr(v_rep,'_',-1)+1);
WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT('/reports/rwservlet/getjobid'||substr(v_rep,instr(v_rep,'_',-1)+1)||'?server='||REPORT_SERVER_NAME,'_blank');
END IF;
Thanks a lot

Slow running reports often are not the result of a flawed report, but rather a flawed configuration. For example:
1. If you call your reports (from Forms) via the default or inProcess Reports Server, often because startup time is slow, it will appear that it took too long for the report to be delievered. Using a stand-alone Rep Server is the preferred way to do this.
2. If your Forms application makes numerous calls to RRO (RUN_REPORT_OBJECT), this can tend to result in what might appear as a memory leak (although it is not). The result is delayed processing because of the excessive memory use. This problem has been overcome in Forms/Reports 11 by the use of JVM pooling. However in v10 enabling "6i compatibility" mode is the way to overcome the issue. See Note 266073.1
3. If the report runs fine from the Builder and it is connecting to the same db as when you run it from App Server, the issue is unlikely a db problem. However, if you want to look anyway, enable sqlnet tracing.
4. To enable Reports tracing and investigate other tuning options, refer to the Reports 10 documentation:
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/B14099_11/bi.1012/b14048/pbr_tune.htm
Almost forgot to mentioned this one....
If you are using a v11 db with App Server 10, you will probably want to consider reviewing Note 1099035.1 as it discusses an issue related to performance with such a configuration.

I have installed a trial of Adobe illustrator on my macbook pro. I want to trace an image using the custom trace button but can't. Does anyone have any ideas how I could custom trace?

I have installed a trial of Adobe illustrator on my macbook pro. It is the 2014 release of adobe illustrator. I want to trace an image using the custom trace button.
I start a new document. Then I place my scanned pencil/colored pencil drawing, in to the document. I have tried scanning and then placing it as a jpeg, bitmap, and tiff file. I have tried scanning and then placing it, in color and in black and white. The scan mode I use is flatbed. Adobe illustrator allows me to select the default button and one of eleven preset buttons (e.g high fidelity photo), but it does not allow me to click the custom trace button. The custom trace button is grey while all the other buttons are white.
Does anyone have any ideas how I could custom trace?

It seems pointless to adjust it afterwards because it is then only a couple a pencil lines rather then a full drawing. And how do I adjust it afterwards? Would I do this using the different buttons under the window button?

How I can forced close the Citadel Trace References

On my application I write data to Citadel traces using "Database Writing
VIs" (Open Trace.vi .. Write Trace.vi ... Close Trace.vi).
Sometimes if my application "crash" the Close Trace.vi is not executed and that's why the "trace references"
are NOT closed.
When start my application again I get error: "There is already an open writer for the selected trace."
This is natural because the references are not closed when application crash.
My question: How can I solve problem like this?
Is there any function on the Citadel Engine what I can use to "force"
close all writer references, reboot engine etc, get references already opened?
An attachments there is example VI and EXE.

Hello Mikko!
I can see that we have Services as NI Citadel 4 Service and NI Citadel 5 from Services in Administration tools. Can you try to restart them and see if the effect is something that you need. From then maybe we could try something out.

How to clear the alertlog and trace file?

since the database was created,the log and trace file have't been cleared.how to clear the alertlog and trace file?3tx!!

Hi Friend.
You can eliminate all the files ".TRC" (trace files) to purify the directory BDUMP. These are not necessary files in order that the Oracle Server works.
The file Alert.log is a file that the Oracle Server can recreate if you eliminate it. When Oracle Server's process realizes certain action (for example ARCH), Oracle creates again the file (if it does not exist), or it adds text (if it exists) with the new income.
It can happen, that appears some Bug if the file Alert.log does not exist. Though this is slightly possible.
Anyhow I recommend to you in UNIX to use from the prompt: $> filename in order to take the size of the file to 0 bytes, without need to eliminate it. Is the same thing when you want to purify the listener.log, the sqlnet.log or the sbtio.log.
I wait for my commentaries you be of great help.
Bye Friend...

How to get the complete Stack-Trace ?

Hi,
I'm getting the following error on the screen.
oracle.jbo.DMLException: JBO-26041: Failed to post data to database during "Insert": SQL Statement " INSERT INTO OTA.OTA_QUESTIONS(QUESTION_ID,TEXT,ALLOW_HTML_FLAG,OBJECT_VERSION_NUMBER,BUSINESS_GROUP_ID,START_DATE_ACTIVE) VALUES (:1,:2,:3,:4,:5,:6)".
I want to get the complete stack-trace. I turned on the screen log, but still not getting the error-stack. Can anyone lemme know, how to get the complete error-stack ? This error is raised from a seeded page.
Thanks,
Guna.

This is a developer raised exception and not a standard expection(depends on a profile), that is why you cannot see the error stack.You have to put system.out.println, to debug.You get such errors when there is some fundamental mistake and not framework exception.
As the error says look into the query and see all bind variables are setting properly.

How to use the transaction STO5 (SQL Trace)

Hi,
I want to check the performance of program using the ST05 transaction. Please send me the step by step procedure to trace my program.
Thanks & Regards,
Santhosh Kumar.R

Hi,
following explanation clearly you abt ST05
Hi,
SQL trace(ST05) provides the developer with the ability to analyse database select statements. Simply execute ST05 to turn on SQL trace, then execute the statement/program you want to analyse. Now turn off SQL trace using ST05
and click on list trace to view the details.
You can also perform traces on other items such as authorisation objects.
The trace list has many lines that are not related to the SELECT statement in the ABAP program. This is because the execution of any ABAP program requires additional administrative SQL calls. To restrict the list output, use the filter introducing the trace list.
The trace list contains different SQL statements simultaneously related to the one SELECT statement in the ABAP program. This is because the R/3 Database Interface - a sophisticated component of the R/3 Application Server - maps every Open SQL statement to one or a series of physical database calls and brings it to execution. This mapping, crucial to R/3s performance, depends on the particular call and database system. For example, the SELECT-ENDSELECT loop on the SPFLI table in our test program is mapped to a sequence PREPARE-OPEN-FETCH of physical calls in an Oracle environment.
The WHERE clause in the trace list's SQL statement is different from the WHERE clause in the ABAP statement. This is because in an R/3 system, a client is a self-contained unit with separate master records and its own set of table data (in commercial, organizational, and technical terms). With ABAP, every Open SQL statement automatically executes within the correct client environment. For this reason, a condition with the actual client code is added to every WHERE clause if a client field is a component of the searched table.
To see a statement's execution plan, just position the cursor on the PREPARE statement and choose Explain SQL. A detailed explanation of the execution plan depends on the database system in use.
Performance Tuning is useful mainly reducing load on database. It is very important aspect while writing the programs/FM etc.....
SQL Trace
Use
The SQL Trace function is an on-demand log of selected SQL statements that are issued against the database through the Open SQL Engine. The SQL Trace can be switched on or off dynamically. The log format is database independent. Besides the SQL statement text, each log record contains information about the point in time when the statement was executed, its duration, its input parameters and results (where applicable) as well as context information.
Features
The SQL Trace is especially useful for:
Development:
SQL Trace can help JDO, enterprise beans, servlet and JSP developers to learn which kind of database accesses their code produces.
 Performance analysis
Typically, performance issues are caused by inefficient database accesses. In this case SQL Trace can be used to show the issued SQL statements and their duration, thus helping to identify inefficient SQL statements.
Functions
The following functions are available on the initial screen:
Select trace:
Select the trace mode SQL Trace, Enqueue Trace, RFC Trace, or Table Buffer Trace. You can select mutliple trace modes simultaneously.
Select trace function:
Start the trace recording.
Stop the trace recording.
Branch to trace list, detailed list, or time-sorted list.
Branch to Explain SQL to analyze an SQL statement without an explicit trace file.
Trace files are managed by the system. Thus they can be saved, like any other object;
saved trace files can be displayed and deleted.
Trace Status
A trace can only be activated once on any application server. The Trace Status display informs you whether another user in the system has already activated a particular trace.
Starting the Trace
Prerequisites
You can only switch on the Performance Trace for a single instance. You should already have decided the scope and targets of your performance analysis.
Procedure
To analyze a trace file, do the following:
... 1. Choose the menu path Test  Performance Trace in the ABAP Workbench.
The initial screen of the test tool appears. In the lower part of the screen, the status of the Performance Trace is displayed. This provides you with information as to whether any of the Performance Traces are switched on and the users for which they are enabled. It also tells you which user has switched the trace on.
2. Using the selection buttons provided, set which trace functions you wish to have switched on (SWL trace, enqueue trace, RFC trace, table buffer trace).
3. If you want to switch on the trace under your user name, choose Trace on.
If you want to pass on values for one or several filter criteria, choose Trace with Filter.
Typical filter criteria are: the name of the user, transaction name, process name, and program name.
4. Now run the program to be analyzed.
You will normally analyze the performance trace file immediately. In this case, it is a good idea to use a separate session to start, stop, and analyze the Performance Trace
If you are shown trace kernel errors on the initial screen (for example, not enough storage space available), you must first remove the errors or have them removed by your system administrator.
The selected trace types can be changed as required during a performance trace interval (time between switching on and off the trace). The user (user group) must remain unchanged.
Result
The results of the trace recording are written to a trace file. If trace records are overwritten during the trace interval, the system displays a message to inform you when you analyze the trace file.
The results of the trace recording are stored to ten trace files. Overwriting trace records, however, cannot be entirely excluded in this case either.
The Performance Trace records all database access calls, table buffer calls, remote calls, or calls for user lock activity. These measurements can affect the performance of the application server where the trace is running. To preserve system performance, you should therefore turn off the trace as soon as you finish recording your application.
Stopping the Trace
Prerequisites
You have started the trace and finished running the program that you want to analyze.
For performance reasons, you should switch off the traces as soon as you have finished recording.
Procedure
To deactivate the trace:
... 1. Choose Test Performance Trace in the ABAP Workbench.
The initial screen of the test tool appears. It contains a status line displaying the traces that are active, the users for whom they are active, and the user who activated them.
2. Select the trace functions that you want to switch off.
3. Choose Deactivate Trace.
If you started the trace yourself, you can now switch it off immediately. If the performance trace was started by a different user, a confirmation prompt appears before deactivation-
Result
The results of the trace are stored in one or more trace files. You can then analyze the performance data stored in the trace file. See also, Analyzing Performance Data.
