How to handle error for a file to file transform in ODI

I am doing a lab for file to file transformation where source = CSV file and target = Flat file.
1) When I am changing the datatype in source two files are getting created where one having the errored out data and the other having the errored message, how how to handle the errored data?
2) If the target path is changed the session in ODI is showing as completed, it should error out. Here no files are created in source as earlier. Hoe to handle this type of error?

Hi,
I have used the following KMs in my transformation with the following options:
IKM SQL Incremental Update
INSERT    <Default>:true
UPDATE    <Default>:true

How to handle errors in a file at sender side?

Hi
I have done a file to proxy scenario.
I know how to handle errors on proxy.
But on sender side when picking the file if one the record have worng fomat its throwing mapping error and its not processing any record..
I wanted to process the records which have right format and data and all remaining recrods which have wromg format should be send back to the sender as file.
How to do this.
How to handle error in sender file.

Sowmya

Hello Sowmya,
In your scenario Three ways you can validate the data.
1) Before the data reaches into SAP system ie in XI system during Mapping or before mapping i,e in Adapter Module in the Sender side
2) this option, is in the receiver applications side. ie. Validations will be taken care in the SAP system i.e in ABAP server proxy code.
3)Through BPM, If Mapping Exception Occures then through exception Branch you can send bad formate file to sender again.
Generally, it is prefer to more business critical validations in the Application System ie Receiver Application System (ABAP Server Proxy)
In this, you can have more flexibility of the validations as you are validating some of the SAP payroll informations as Personal ID etc.
Based on the complexity and flexibility of the requirement, you can either do this in the XI (if XI, ie Sender Adapter Module or Mapping) or in the ABAP proxy

How to handle error for a Db Table to Db table transform in ODI

Hi,
I have created two table in two different schema source and target, where there is a field for e.g.- place where the datatype is varchar2 and data inserted is string.
In designer model of ODI i have put the type of place as number in both source and target and accordingly done the mapping.
When it is executed it should give an error, but it got completed but no data is inserted neither in target table nor in error table in the target schema(E$_TARGET_TEST which is created automatically).
Why the error is not given and how to handle such type of error..
Please help.
The codes for source and target tables are as follows:
source table code:
CREATE TABLE "DEF"."SOURCE_TEST"
    "EMP_ID"   NUMBER(9,0),
    "EMP_NAME" VARCHAR2(20 BYTE),
    "SAL"      NUMBER(9,0),
    "PLACE"    VARCHAR2(10 BYTE),
    PRIMARY KEY ("EMP_ID") USING INDEX PCTFREE 10 INITRANS 2 MAXTRANS 255 STORAGE(INITIAL 65536 NEXT 1048576 MINEXTENTS 1 MAXEXTENTS 2147483645 PCTINCREASE 0 FREELISTS 1 FREELIST GROUPS 1 BUFFER_POOL DEFAULT FLASH_CACHE DEFAULT CELL_FLASH_CACHE DEFAULT) TABLESPACE "USERS" ENABLE
inserted data:
INSERT INTO "DEF"."SOURCE_TEST" (EMP_ID, EMP_NAME, SAL, PLACE) VALUES ('1', 'ani', '12000', 'kol')
INSERT INTO "DEF"."SOURCE_TEST" (EMP_ID, EMP_NAME, SAL, PLACE) VALUES ('2', 'priya', '15000', 'jad')
target table code:
CREATE TABLE "ABC"."TARGET_TEST"
    "EMP_ID"     NUMBER(9,0),
    "EMP_NAME"   VARCHAR2(20 BYTE),
    "YEARLY_SAL" NUMBER(9,0),
    "BONUS"      NUMBER(9,0),
    "PLACE"      VARCHAR2(10 BYTE),
    PRIMARY KEY ("EMP_ID") USING INDEX PCTFREE 10 INITRANS 2 MAXTRANS 255 STORAGE(INITIAL 65536 NEXT 1048576 MINEXTENTS 1 MAXEXTENTS 2147483645 PCTINCREASE 0 FREELISTS 1 FREELIST GROUPS 1 BUFFER_POOL DEFAULT FLASH_CACHE DEFAULT CELL_FLASH_CACHE DEFAULT) TABLESPACE "USERS" ENABLE

How to handle errors in data templates

Hi
What is the recommended way to handle errors for example if one of your SQL statement in a data template returned no data how and where would you be able to create an error message for the user to find and read.
Thanks,
Mark

The closest I have come to doing this is to put conditional statements into the format template. If a value matches an expected (ex. is null) you can return a message (in the report) via the format template (ex. "No Data Found").
I am not sure this really answers your question as this is in the format template, but I generally view them as a matched pair that work together. I try to stick with data extraction in the data define, and do all my conditional stuff in the format templates.

How to handle the java.policy file ?

Can somebody tell me how to handle the java.policy file?
I always get java.net.SocketExceptions and java.security.AccessControlExceptions while connecting to an appserver from an applet.
What do I have to write in the java.policy file, where do I have to place it and do I have to call it in some way form my applet?
Thanks in advance.
don call

The java.policy file goes in your jre installation directory in .../jre/lib/security (there should be one there already).
I used it to allow otherwise restricted permissions for an applet using javax.comm. Add something like the following to the file:
grant codeBase "URL:http://yourDomainName/rootDirectoryOfYourApp/*" {
permission java.security.AllPermission;
This will give the applet downloaded from your site all permissions. You might want to give only certain permissions, I don't know.

Return The remote server returned an error: (403) Forbidden error for some file types

hi
am using below code to get the byte array
byte[] myDataBuffer = client.DownloadData((new Uri(sourceUrl)));
for source of type .txt/.jpg no problem with accessing.but the file type with .master/.wsp/.cs
it is returning "The remote server returned an error: (403) Forbidden error for some file types" Error.how can i get rid of this.please help me
Thanks in Advance

Hi,
It seems there is something wrong with your code, from your code the account and key are the same, because their appsetting name are the same.
string account = ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["StorageAccountName"];
//string account = CloudConfigurationManager.GetSetting("StorageAccountName");
//string key = CloudConfigurationManager.GetSetting("StorageAccountAccessKey");
string key = ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["StorageAccountName"];
string connectionString = String.Format("DefaultEndpointsProtocol=https;AccountName={0};AccountKey={1}", account, key);
return CloudStorageAccount.Parse(connectionString);
If you use CloudConfigurationManager.GetSetting, please consider set azure project as the startup project, if not, this value will be null, this resulted in solution being started as a web project that didn't run inside the Azure emulator. Since CloudConfigurationManager.GetSetting
tries to get setting by contacting Azure (or Azure emulator in this case), and it is not running, it returns null.

Why does multiple handles created for the file File (RW-) C:\Windows\winsxs\x86_microsoft.vc80.crt_1fc8b3b9a1e18e3b_8.0.50727.4940_none_d08cc06a442b34fc

I am analysing the file handles created by my desktop application and when i generate a report using handle.exe, in report i could see multiple file handles created for
1) File (RW-) C:\Windows\winsxs\x86_microsoft.vc80.crt_1fc8b3b9a1e18e3b_8.0.50727.4940_none_d08cc06a442b34fc
2) File (RW-) C:\Windows\winsxs\x86_microsoft.windows.common-controls_6595b64144ccf1df_6.0.7601.17514_none_41e6975e2bd6f2b2
I could see around 80 entries of file1 and around 5-10
file 2 .
What my understanding about the WinSxS, should load the dll only once and should keep referencing the same dll. But what my results out from handle.exe contains multiple file handles created. Is there a glitch in system or is it expected behavior? If there
is a problem how to fix it?
My system configuration is as follows
OS windows7 enterprise edition , service pack1..
64 bit os, intel core i7 processor
.net framework 4.5

How Can I Search for Media files by Length?

I want know how can I search for media files (mov, mp4, flv and movie files in general) by their length?
If this search function is confirmed as definitely not possible on the OS, I would appreciate someone recommending app that might be able to perform such a search?
Many thanks

No possible way. Because the files may be enoded with differing codecs, compression, etc., you can only sort by file size, not the 'length' of the movie files.

[JS][CS3]how to get refrence for source file

Hi All
I am new and learning javascript Gradually Could any one help on this as i do have a code for load style but don't know how to get refrence for "source file" and "targetDoc"
targetDoc.importStyles(charImport, sourceFile, clashPolicy);
targetDoc.importStyles(paraImport, sourceFile, clashPolicy);
Can any one figure it out
Many Thanks

I'm not sure what you are trying to achieve, could you please elaborate?
Do you want to load all the styles from one document into all 100 documents, or do you want all the styles from the 100 documents into 1 document or what is the goal?
The following will let you choose a folder of files, open each of the files in it and import the styles from source document. It is not a complete script, make sure to test and modify before running on anything else than test files :-)
var MyFolderWithFiles = Folder.selectDialog ("Choose a folder");
var sourceFile = File.openDialog("Choose the styles source");
var myFiles = MyFolderWithFiles.getFiles("*.indd");
for(i = 0; i < myFiles.length; i++) {
    theFile = myFiles[i];
    app.scriptPreferences.userInteractionLevel = UserInteractionLevels.NEVER_INTERACT;
    var targetDoc = app.open(theFile, true);
    app.scriptPreferences.userInteractionLevel = UserInteractionLevels.INTERACT_WITH_ALL;
    targetDoc.importStyles(ImportFormat.CHARACTER_STYLES_FORMAT, sourceFile, GlobalClashResolutionStrategy.LOAD_ALL_WITH_OVERWRITE);
    targetDoc.importStyles(ImportFormat.PARAGRAPH_STYLES_FORMAT, sourceFile, GlobalClashResolutionStrategy.LOAD_ALL_WITH_OVERWRITE);
    targetDoc.close(SaveOptions.YES);

How to handle bdc for more than one transaction?

how to handle bdc for more than one transaction?

Hi srk,
I am providing you with some references below. Hope this prove to be helpful to you.
Method 1:
Use one BDC_OPEN_GROUP
Multiple BDC_INSERT
One BDC_CLOSE_GROUP.
Call function BDC_OPENGROUP.
Build BDC data and call lBDC_INSERT for transaction 1
Build BDC data and call lBDC_INSERT for transaction 2
Build BDC data and call lBDC_INSERT for transaction 3
paas the tcodes to bdc_insert.
call function BDC_CLOSE_GROUP.
Also check this out:
Here we need to record 2 transactions (shdb).
Once completion of the recording. Populate the data into input internal table .
Loop the internal table and process the 2 transactions
like
1. BDC_OPEN_GROUP
2. LOOP AT ITAB
a. Populate first transaction recording data
and pass transaction to the BDC_INSERT_GROUP.
BDC_INSERT_GROUP.
b. Populate second transaction recording data
and pass transaction to the BDC_INSERT_GROUP.
BDC_INSERT_GROUP.
ENDLOOP.
3. BDC_CLOSE_GROUP
the above info can be found at : How to use 2 transactions in BDC?
Also check this out:
Suppose u have created recordings for transactions 'MM01' 'XK01' and 'VA01'.
Then do this:
bdc_open_group.
after this we have to fill the bdcdata structure for one transaction.here 'MM01'.
bdc_insert.
refresh bdcdata.
after this we have to fill the bdcdata structure for one transaction.here 'xk01'.
bdc_insert .

How to handling Binary data and File operation?

Hello Everyone,
I think this question might have been asked a lot of time but I was unable to find one solution so, please help needed in this from all you guys..
I am creating a byte[] of the media files of mp4, and jpg, using the below code,,
File ff = new File(filename);
        fos = new FileOutputStream(ff);
        int b;
        byte[] f = this.getMediaFile();
        for (b = 0; b < f.length; b++) {
            if (f[b] != -1) {
                fos.write(f);
fos.flush();
fos.close();
After i convert it i have to store it in the MySql Database as BLOB object, for retrieving byte[] from the database is simple i can do that also successfully with this code.java.sq.Blob obj = (java.sql.Blob) rs.getBlob("file");
InputStream is = null;
ByteArrayOutputStream bc = null;
is = obj.getBinaryStream();
bc = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
int b;
while ((b = is.read()) != -1) {
System.out.print(b + " ");
bc.write(b);
Now the real problem is that when i want to recreate a mp4 audio or video file i am unable to do so, the file created is smaller in size and also it doesn't get played in windows default player nor VLC. I am able to get the image file of jpg format using the BufferedImage & ImageIO.writer();
How do i do for mp4 file, have no clue for that.
Pleases help out with this.
Thanks..

if (f[b] != -1) {I don't get that line. What if you try to output the data without that condition, like this:
fos = new FileOutputStream(ff);
        byte[] f = this.getMediaFile();
        for (int b = 0; b < f.length; b++) {
             fos.write(f);
fos.close();

How to add support for new file type.

Using the ESDK, I would like to add support for new file type ( a new extension). this new extension will function like any other non visual code editor but will have specific syntax highlighting, code folding and explorer.
I am trying ot figure out if I need to create a new editor or use existing JDeveloper code editor and add support for new file type. Does anyone have a high level outline on how to do this using the ESDK that is specifically targeted at adding new file type support for a text based code editor?
I have looked at the Samples and keep going in multipe directions. It would be cool if there was an example that was how add syntax higlighting for new file type.
Thank you

Brian, thank you. I looked at this extension and it answered a lot of questions for me. I was going in the right direction but needed a little help and bost of confidence, this is just what I needed. I created the LanguageSupport, LanguageModel, Addin, Node and TextDocument that are specific to the new file type. I was getting hung up on how to hook this into the JDevelpoer editor. I keep thinking I have to create a custom editor but it looks like I don't have to and it looks like I can associate this file support with the editor framwork, for version 10.1.3.2, with the following in the Addin Initilize() method.
Recognizer.mapExtensionToClass(MY_EXTENSION, MyNode.class);
CodeEditor.registerNodeType(MyNode.class, MY_EXTENSION);
LanguageModule.registerModuleForFileType(new MyLanguageModule(), MY_EXTENSION);
I have done this but still not able to recognize the new file type.
At this point, I just want to be able to recognize the new file and display it's associated icon or display a messare to the message log. I put a System.out.println("test") in the Initilize() method of my addin. then I registered MyAddin in the extension.xml. JDeveloper sees this new extension and it is loaded but I have not been able to show the test message or display the new icon when I open the new file type.

I saw the information in the JavaWS FAQ, which recommended turning off security constraints for the JNLP's URI. I tried that, and it didn't help. One of the very baffling things is that I have created several variations of the JNLP file, with varying combinations of jars and property resources, and some combinations always work while other combinations never work. Here's an example:

</jnlp>The above file always fails with the error shown at the top of this message. However, if I remove either of the two properties, it works fine. And I have created other variations with lots of properties, some of which work. All of these variations are in the same directory in the war file, served by the exact same servlet (a slightly modified version of the jnlp.sample.servlet.JnlpDownloadServlet provided with JDK 1.6.0_3). Assuming that a no-cache header is the problem, what on earth could be causing some JNLP files to always be served with a no-cache header, while others are never served with a no-cache header?
On a related note, any recommended debugging techniques for seeing what headers are being transmitted? I tried adding a simple check for a "debug=true" parameter in the servlet that causes it to set the content type to "text/plain" instead of JNLP, and that allows me to see (rather than execute) the JNLP XML that's being returned, but it doesn't show me the HTTP headers that are being sent back. If any caching headers are being set, I think it must be being set by the servlet container itself, as it's nothing being set in the servlet code that I can see. So I don't see any way on the server side Java code to output or log the actual HTTP response (or is there?). Any tips in that regard much appreciated.

Hi Luca-Sanna,
Thanks for the response. Re browsers, yes, it fails in IE but it succeeds in Firefox. The info on the JavaWS FAQ and other places all seem to indicate that it's an IE issue concerning handling of the cache-control headers.
I should check in my webserver forum (Sun WebServer 7) to see about logging options. Sniffing on the client side is not possible, as my app is required to use HTTPS exclusively, and unfortunately that also precludes a telnet GET request.
