How to modify $SQLPATH in WIndows for 11g2 XE

Hello.
Wanting to prepend my own script subdirectory to the Oracle SQLPATH env var within Windows Vista for an 11g2 XE system.
Online doc says to use REGEDIT to find and set the variable.
But when I check for the recommended location it is not there:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ORACLE\{oracle_home}\SQLPATH
In fact, nothing exists below the ORACLE point in the path in the Registry, including no ORACLE_HOME!
Yet DB is up and running. I'm used to Linux/Unix. Anybody have the explanation? Thanks.

For XE, you shouldn't need to modify reg entries.
Try something like:
C:\Users\A>set sqlpath=%userprofile%\documents\oracle\sqlfiles
(use an actual, existing path on your system)
C:\Users\A>sqlplus
SQLPATH could be added to user environment variables (edit system variables > User variables for...) for "permanent" effect.
If you still want to know about the registry, on Win x64, for 32-bit software there's a separate sub environment known as wow64 and nodes in the Registry are named Wow6432Node.

How to close a popup window for system events?

Hi,
I have a screen 110 which shows several input field in popup mode.
The Cancel button can close the screen.
But my question is how to close the popup window for the following system events?
1, Customer clicks the cross button in top-right corner
2, Customer clicks the system icon in top-left corner and then select either: "Close" or "Stop Session"
The PAI subroutine of the screen has not been triggered for the above system events.
Thanks for the coming help.
Best Regards,
David

Hi Siddharth,
I did check with another very experienced ABAP developer.
The solution was the same as what Arunima Rudra provided.
And I got a sample program which did work properly.
The headache is that the system events in my program still cannot be triggered even after I have all the same changes.
Anyway, I suggest you to try the solution as provided by Arunima Rudra.
It should work for 2 system events:
1, Customer clicks the cross button in top-right corner
2, Customer clicks the system icon in top-left corner and then select either: "Close"
For "Stop Session", it should not be handled by popup.
You can observe the same behavior in ALV sorting configuration popup.
Good luck!

David

About to move from Windows to Mac. Considering purchasing retina display MBP 15" with dual boot system as I need some of my programs. How is the display in windows for photoshop?

Has anyone got any thoughts or have you yourself purchased the MBP with Retina display and added the dual boot system with windows?
I desperately need to update my gear and want a MBP.
I'm a full time photographer at my local paper and freelance photographer - use computers A LOT, and only use windows. I've experienced mac and know I prefer it, the way it runs pleases me a whole lot more and for the amount i'm processing/working I need something that will keep up.
With 12 years of photoshop gear loaded up for all my photo processing etc, I'm wanting to add Windows and have use of both. Windows would run photoshop that I had already purchased some time ago - question is, how will it run? what will the display be like running Windows on Mac with the retina display?
I use CS4 at the moment and can't afford to upgrade to CS6 just yet, plus i'd waste a lot of what I already have by starting again on Mac. I'd use Mac for everything else, need the use of Windows for portions of what I do.
About to head to Canada and want to get set up for the road. Any help is much appreciated.
Thanks heaps!

There are some drawbacks, running Windows 7 (only) on a Mac via Bootcamp yields less than stellar results, especially with the Retina display.
And of your traveling, the Mac's high power needs (especially the Retina display) and lack of removable battery are going to be a serious issue. The Retina display is glossy, not ideal for viewing on the road and in varied environments.
CS4 won't run on the OS X version that comes with a Mac, so your looking at purchasing CS6.
Support for Windows is more widespread than for Mac's, also if you ever need to redownload OS X to fix a issue, requires a fast reliable Internet connection of the broadband kind.
If your running Windows on your Mac, you can expect to be on your own and not get support as easily as if you were running it on a regular PC.
If you can't afford to keep up with CS upgrades, then you shouldn't be considering a Mac because there are more paid upgrades on that than on Windows 7, it's like a annual nightmare.
IMMO your still better off on a decent, 1920 x 1080 res, matte screen, removable battery (with extras), Win 7 Pro i7 machine (Pro+ runs XP programs) which will stay like it is and get security updates until 2020.
OS X changes every year and if you don't upgrade, + all your third party software, then about 3 years later your left behind for updates.
Also you will have to buy Win 7 to run on your Mac, the OEM disks won't work.
If your trying to budget, then a Mac is certainly not for you.

How to automatically open browser window for getting user id & password

i have created a jsp page, that page cannot be open by anyone anyway, it should be only visible to me only.
how do i achieve this.
my requirement is that whenever any one request for that jsp page, browser should automatically open one window and ask for user id & password, if it is right then the page should be displayed else error should be shown.

Adding the following to web.xml will define security constraints for all resources under the /admin directory, also only a user in the manager role will have access to these resources.
For tomcat you can look at the conf/tomcat-users.xml file for setting up users and roles
     <security-constraint>
          <web-resource-collection>
               <web-resource-name>Secure Pages</web-resource-name>
               <description></description>
               <url-pattern>/admin/*</url-pattern>
               <http-method>GET</http-method>
               <http-method>POST</http-method>
          </web-resource-collection>
          <auth-constraint>
               <description></description>
               <role-name>manager</role-name>
          </auth-constraint>
     </security-constraint>

How to change used WD windows for BPM process instance?

Hello SDN!
We have two BPM processes (A and B) and two WD DC (A and B). Process A uses window from WD DC A, process B uses window from WD DC B.
We deactivate process A since we need process B to be used and since A and B use the same WebService. But existing instances of process A still using window from WD A. Is it possible to switch instances of process A from using WD window A to using WD window B? And how we can do this?
Regards,
Lev.

Hi Lev,
Try this:
Use an exclusive choice in your process. Create 2 Human Tasks after the Choice with these 2 WD Screens (A & B).
Based on some condition, you can execute either one of the Human Task. Once this branch of the Exclusive choice executes, place an Uncontrolled merge so that the process execution does not wait for the other branch to execute.
In this way, based on some condition, you can either execute either WD Screen A or WD Screen B without affecting each other.
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Sid.

In EP7 Ess, how to remove "open new window" for ESS areapage

Hi all:
   In ESS areapage, there is some tabs for click. When I click it, it open a new window. But I want the content display inside the same content page. These are all standard areapage and worksets.
   How can I reset the "open new window" ?
   My EP version is EP 7 sp9

You can set the workprotect mode on a global level so its used for every user.
Systemadministration -> Systemconfiguration -> Service Configuration -> Applications -> com.sap.portal.epcf.loader -> Services -> epcfloader. Set the "workprotect.mode.default". After you have saved the entry. ricght click on com.sap.portal.epcf.loader in the tree menu and choose "administrate". Click on "restart".

How to modify the temp dir for the OC4J as a service???????

We have OC4j running as an automatic service in Windows 2008 server. Now we have installed Apex listener but whenever the server is restarted it loses its config. I have researched and found that if we setup a temp dir {C:\myconfig} and set OC4J service settings to this folder then Apex will look for this folder on its startup.
Is there a way that we can modify the parameters for OC4J ,
can somebody help me the syntax of service creation and also setting up that temp dir
-Djava.io.tmpdir=c:\somedirectory
javaservice -install “Oracle OC4J” “C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.5.0_11\jre\bin\client\jvm.dll” -XX:MaxPermSize=128m "-Djava.io.tmpdir=c:\OC4J\apex_lsnr_config"
“-Djava.class.path=D:\OC4J\j2ee\home\oc4j.jar” -start oracle.oc4j.loader.boot.BootStrap -description “oc4j 10.1.3”thank you
NS

Hi NS,
what's your actual target?
-Djava.io.tmpdir=c:\somedirectorybasically looks good. However, I'm not sure why you want to use it to store your APEX Listener's configuration. Using
javaservice -install “Oracle OC4J” “C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.5.0_11\jre\bin\client\jvm.dll” -XX:MaxPermSize=128m "-Djava.io.tmpdir=c:\OC4J\apex_lsnr_config"
“-Djava.class.path=D:\OC4J\j2ee\home\oc4j.jar” -start oracle.oc4j.loader.boot.BootStrap -description “oc4j 10.1.3”I see two possible issues: One with your tmpdir, the other one with your JDK version.
Let's start with the latter:
As documented in APEX Listener's Installation Guide, a JDK 1.6.0 Update 20 or higher is required. It seems your OC4J is using 1.5.0 Update 11. You'll very likely encounter other issues than just losing your configuration upon restart.
Concerning your tmpdir
The option you set affects the whole OC4J. I'm not sure you acutally want all temp stuff to be processed in there. Despite that, it stays a temporary location and is due to be erased by OC4J upon each start.
The recommended way to store your APEX Listener's configuration would be to set the parameter config.dir in the web.xml of your apex.war . I really recommend to edit the web.xml before deploying the war file instead of modifying the web.xml after depoyment, so you'll be sure that even after a redeployment the proper configuration will be used.

How to modify a combo box for touch panel operation?

Hi,
I'm developping a touch panel controled application.
The first step of the application is user log-in. My application has a small database of names that the user can access via the drop down menu of a combo box.
My problem is that the arrows and the slider of the vertical scroll bar are way too small to be fingers-operated:
Is there a way to modify the size of this scrollbar so that it's not too small for the operators' fingers?
Best regards,
peper

Hello peper,
As far as I know this is not directly possible (a least not with the control editor).
If you want to, you could also create your own "adapted" control yourself through an XControl.
This one can then (for example) combine a name input, a button and a listbox (with a big vertical scrollbar).
Or is this too far fetched?
Kind Regards,

How to modify the sort criteria for a Metadata Search

I am migrating from Stellent 7.1 to UCM 10gR3 and have found a difference in the sorting of the output from a search of data/metadata copied from the old version. For the search, I have selected a specific Account with Results Per Page = 2000, Sort By = Title and Ascending set on both the 7.1 and the 10gR3 instances. In the 7.1 instance, the results are sorted by number, then A-Z with no emphasis on case. For the search on the 10gR3 instance, the results are sorted by leading spaces, numbers, capital letters (case), then A-Z.
Example:
7.1 Search Results:
4-up Template
Active Directory Plan
ASGV Document
List of Tools (ignores the space at beginning)
Zforms
10gR3 Search Results:
List of Tools (sees the space at beginning)
4-up Template
ASGV Document (lists this before "Active" because it is in all caps)
Active Directory Plan
Zforms
Is there a setting that will allow me to change the 10gR3 instance to match the 7.1 instance?
Thanks.

How to modify a single object for shape tweening on multiple layers?

Hi,
I would like to add shape tween to different parts of a drawing object. The tricky part is that these motions would start with a slight delay (compared to each other) but would simultaneously end.
It's similar to a crowd "wave" effect in a stadium. One part rises, followed by the next with a slight delay etc...but they descend after their initial "rise" motion together.
Its not possible to make the animation smooth on a single layer with all the keyframes on one shape tween. It just makes the animation jagged.
Any ideas how to solve this without coding?
Thanks!

The parts are connected to each other with curved lines. Unfortunately it's out of question to cut it apart. (see attached picture).

How to display RFC-Logon-Screen for non trusted connection in Web-Dynpro?

Dear Web-Dynpro-Specialists,
i got a issue while creation of an WebDynpro-Tool, which is using RFC connections for reading data.
In some cases the RFC connection is not a trusted one connection, so a login is nessessary, but in
this cases not a window is coming up for login....
Any idea how i can get this window for login, in order to collect the nessessary Data for my tool?
Additional Information concerning the RFC connection:
While running my Web-Dynpro i run this Method:
METHOD get_table_entries.
CLEAR rt_entries[].
CALL FUNCTION 'RFC_GET_TABLE_ENTRIES'
DESTINATION iv_destination
EXPORTING
gen_key = iv_table_key
table_name = iv_table_name

OTHERS = 4.
CASE sy-subrc.
WHEN 1.
RAISE internal_error.
WHEN 2.
RAISE table_empty.
WHEN 3.
RAISE table_not_found.
WHEN 4.
RAISE unknown_error.
ENDCASE.
ENDMETHOD.
Thanks a lot in advance

Hi!
You can use the function module RFC_MODIFY_R3_DESTINATION to create, modify and delete RFC connections. You will need the system ID (e.g. ABC), client (e.g. 123), system number (e.g. 00) and the host name of the server. In this example the following code would create or modify the RFC destination ZRFC_DESTINATION.
    CALL FUNCTION 'RFC_MODIFY_R3_DESTINATION'
      EXPORTING
        destination                = 'ZRFC_DESTINATION'
        action                     = 'M'
        systemid                   = 'ABC'
        systemnr                   = '00'
        server                     = 'serverhostname'
        language                   = sy-langu
        client                     = '123'
        user                       = 'USERNAME'
        password                   = 'PASSWORD'
        description                = 'Dummy RFC Connection'
      EXCEPTIONS
        authority_not_available    = 1
        destination_already_exist = 2
        destination_not_exist      = 3
        destination_enqueue_reject = 4
        information_failure        = 5
        trfc_entry_invalid         = 6
        internal_failure           = 7
        snc_information_failure    = 8
        snc_internal_failure       = 9
        destination_is_locked      = 10
        OTHERS                     = 11.
With the following code you can delete this connection:
    CALL FUNCTION 'RFC_MODIFY_R3_DESTINATION'
      EXPORTING
        destination                = 'ZRFC_DESTINATION'
        action                     = 'D'
      EXCEPTIONS
        authority_not_available    = 1
        destination_already_exist = 2
        destination_not_exist      = 3
        destination_enqueue_reject = 4
        information_failure        = 5
        trfc_entry_invalid         = 6
        internal_failure           = 7
        snc_information_failure    = 8
        snc_internal_failure       = 9
        destination_is_locked      = 10
        OTHERS                     = 11.
Please keep in mind that deleting an RFC connection is usually noted in the system log.
If you want to reuse your connection for multiple servers, you could run into trouble since connection data is cached.
Sincerely,
Stefan
