hi Ed
Thanks for replaying..i have installed xe onto nfs (ie, /usr/lib is on an nfs volume).
I also tried by adding below commands on .bashrc file, but i didn't get the as expected
ORACLE_HOME=/usr/lib/oracle/xe/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/server
PATH=$PATH:$ORACLE_HOME/bin
export ORACLE_HOME
export ORACLE_SID=XE
export PATH
Typically, we put that in .bash_profile, not .bashrc
And you have to 'source' the file after the change .. it's not checked on every command to see what might have changed.

  • How to set ENV variable using user profile in solaris 10 while using ssh

    Hi,
    Please help me in setting the environment variable using user profile file while using ssh method of connection (Can I use the same ~/.profile file?)
    when i am logging in using the telnet, the environment variable is automattically set, but not when I am using SSH.
    Thanks in advance
    ushas symon

    Please list your .profile and a ls -la of your home directory.
    also list the result of env after your logged through telnet and ssh.
    There should be no difference - it depends mostly on your login shell which startup script it executes. ksh uses .profile, bash: bash_profile then .profile.

    Hi,
    set the env file in profile of unix user.
    if your shell is bash shell, then edit the user .bash_profile with env file. If your's is bourn shell, edit the user .profile
    for example,
    i have PROD as the database SID
    /oraprod and /applprod are the base mount points of database and application tiers respectively.
    erpserver is the hostname of R12 (single node)
    (1) Database Tier:
    login as oracle user
    $vi .bash_profile
    . /oraprod/db/tech_st/10.2.0/PROD_erpserver.env
    save the file
    (2) Application Tier:
    login as applmgr user
    $vi .bash_profile
    . /applprod/apps/apps_st/appl/APPSPROD_erpserver.env
    save the file

  • How to set a variable value on the BPC Data Manager

    Hello BPC Experts,
    I'm creating a BPC10 NW version demo environment for our prospect customer.
    I made a data manager to import  BW data into BPC model from BW cube.
    I need to import just one month data into BPC from the BW cube that has more than one month data.
    When I run the data package manually, I can select a member of the time dimension prompt and I can import specific month data I want.
    But, in a case where the program (data manager) runs by JOB monthly,
    I can't select a member of the time dimension prompt manually.
    So I want to know how to set a  variable value to the time dimension prompt from a system date etc. automatically.
    Are there any way to set a variable value to the time dimension prompt on the data manager automatically from a system date?
    Or, do you have any other solution to import just one month data into BPC from the BW cube that has more than one month data  by the data manager running on JOB ?
    (without selecting a member of the time dimension prompt of the data package manually)
    Thanks in advance,

  • How to set a variable in portal session using web dynpro java.

    Hi,
    I have created a web dynpro application, which is running inside portal. I have created a role called "R1". Inside role R1, i have created 3 workset W1, W2 and W3. and inside each workset i have some pages and iviews.
    My requirement is when user logins to the portal , and when he clicks on role R1 for the first time, a login page should come (so that we can do revalidation), and when he enters his password again in that login page , then only workset W1, W2 and W3 should be visible/accessible to him and after successful revalidation, if he clicks again on role R1, in that particular portal session, than that login page should not come.
    for this, i thought i will set a variable in portal session, whenever user successfully revalidated himself, and if after successful revalidation he clicks again on role R1, i will check in doinit method of webdynpro whether variable is set or not (which i already set on successful revalidation), and if it is set then i will do Donavigation else i will present login page to the user.
    Can anyone tells me how to set a variable in portal session using web dynpro java.

    Hi everyone,
    I want to convert word documents to html using CTX_DOC.Filter.According to the documentation,I know I neednot set the 'Inso Filter'in the preference when creating index,but I must set enviroment variables for Inso Filter.
    I found the following instructions for it in the 8.1.5 documentation,but I can't understand it well.Is there anyone can tell me how to set enviroments variables for Inso Filter on Windows2000 Server?(My DB version is 8.1.7EE)
    Environment Variable Locations
    All environment variables related to Inso filtering must made visible to interMedia Text. Set these variables in the following locations:
    listener.ora file. This makes the environment variables visible to the extproc PL/SQL process.
    The operating system shell from where ctxsrv server is started. This makes the environment variables visible to the ctxsrv process, which does background DML.

  • Setting env variables through scheduler

    Hi All,
    I am trying to run a PERL script which makes database connection using DBI module through scheduler. The script works fine if I run it manually but from scheduler it fails because it can't fine libclnt.sh.10.1 lib file. I have LD_LIBRARY_PATH & LIBPATH set in my .profile and i guess when scheduler runs the external job, it creates a new shell but doesn't inherit the .profile settings (same as cron). I tried setting these env variables in PERL script itself but even then it's not working. I tried my theory by running this script from shell but without running .profile and it fail with exact same error.
    I want to know how you guys are handling this situation? How to set or call .profile from scheduler job so that all the env variable get set properly?
    OS: SUSE Linux
    DB: 11gR2
    Thanks

    Thanks for the reply, I am doing the same. I have create a very simple script where I am setting all the env variables and I can see that those variable are getting set but still, it doesn't work. There is something special when we run .profile, that time along with env variables, something else also get set (which i dont know and trying to find out) which makes PERL to search the oracle library in oracle_home. I can see that by turning libraries debugging on. Here is a small snippet when .profile doesn't get execute but the env variables are set:

  • How to set a variable in an attahced m.c.

    testClip=mc1.mc2.attachMovie('mc3','mc3',nIndex++);
    testClip.testVar='cat';
    In AS2 the code above would mean that from within the attached mc1.mc2.mc3 clip, i could access the testVar.
    eg... within the timeline of mc3, i could have the following
    trace(testVar); and the word cat would be produced....
    In AS3, I know how to attach a movieClip, but how do you set a variable within a mc that is being attached to the stage, like the above AS2 example?
    kind regards J.

    I'm not really sure where you want to assign it so I'm providing a mildly revised version of your code with "aIndex" being a variable sharing a home with the texfield, arrayIndex.  This example assigns it both inside the function and outside, and demos a couple of ways of accessing the child.  If you plug this into a new file in frame 1 and copy one of your selectFile objects into the library, you'll see it play out.
    var attachHere:MovieClip = new MovieClip;
    this.addChild(attachHere);
    function showFiles(){
    for(var i:uint=0; i<3; i++){
      var mySelectFile:selectFile = new selectFile();
      mySelectFile.name = "mySelectFile"+i;
      mySelectFile.y = (mySelectFile.height + 100)*i;
      mySelectFile.aIndex = i;
      mySelectFile.arrayIndex.text=String(mySelectFile.aIndex);  // casting to String since i is a uint
      attachHere.addChild(mySelectFile);
    showFiles();
    for(var k:uint=0; k<3; k++){
    trace("before: "+MovieClip(attachHere.getChildAt(k)).aIndex);
    MovieClip(attachHere.getChildByName("mySelectFile"+k)).aIndex += 1;
    trace("after: "+MovieClip(attachHere.getChildAt(k)).aIndex);

  • How to set environment variable?

    Hi,
    I just succeeded starting up an external executable by using nativeprocess.
    Now I have to set the portnumber as an environment variable.
    After setting this portnumber, I can send queries to the executable.
    But I don't now how to set this environment variable.
    You can see my try in bold:
    Starting the executable (an extract of the code):
    public var portnumber;
    file = file.resolvePath("C:\\Program Files\\CM Synergy 6.3\\bin\\start_dbase.exe");    #start executable
    process.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.STANDARD_OUTPUT_DATA, getportnumber);    #get portnumber as output of the executable
    The next step is to define the variable portnumber:
    file = file.resolvePath("C:\\WINDOWS\\system32\\cmd.exe");
    processArgs[0] = "/C";
    processArgs[1] = "set";
    processArgs[2] = "portnumber=";
    processArgs[3] = portnumber;
    When I try to print out all environment variables, portnumber is not in:
    file = file.resolvePath("C:\\WINDOWS\\system32\\cmd.exe");
    processArgs[0] = "/C";
    processArgs[1] = "set";
    If I replace the last executable with my real command (running the query), the executable is giving the error that my portnumber is not set.
    Is it possible? I have also tried it with setx.exe. Even running a python script where I set os.environ is not working.
    I have the feeling that the command is executed but that the variable is not remembered for the next executable.

    Hello Martin,
    Thanks for your input. I have tried what you suggested but it didn't work. I will post my source code. Perhaps I'm doing something wrong. After setting my variable portnumber, I would normally run a query. Instead of running the query, I'm writing out the environment variables. Unfortunately, portnumber is not in the list . I also tried using "setx" insetad of "cmd.exe set" but without any difference.
        public var portnumber;
        public function run_query():void
            var file:File = new File("C:/WINDOWS/System32/cmd.exe");
            var si:NativeProcessStartupInfo = new NativeProcessStartupInfo();
            si.executable = file;
            var processArgs:Vector.<String> = new Vector.<String>();
            processArgs[0] = "/C";
            processArgs[1] = "set";
            nativeProcessStartupInfo.arguments = processArgs;
            var process:NativeProcess = new NativeProcess();
            process.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.STANDARD_OUTPUT_DATA, onOutputData);
            process.start(si);
        public function set_portnumber():void
            var file:File = new File("C:/WINDOWS/System32/cmd.exe");
            var si:NativeProcessStartupInfo = new NativeProcessStartupInfo();
            si.executable = file;
            var process:NativeProcess = new NativeProcess();
            process.start(si);
            process.standardInput.writeUTF("set portnumber="+portnumber+"\n")
            setTimeout(run_query, 1000);
        public function onOutputData(event:ProgressEvent):void
            var process:NativeProcess = event.target as NativeProcess;
            textReceived.text += process.standardOutput.readUTFBytes(process.standardOutput.bytesAvailable) + "\n";

  • How to set #HOST# variable used in Chart template using Multiple Domains?

    I have a extended question to How can I set #HOST# variable referenced in the Chart template?
    In addition to the Proxy layer, we are looking to use multiple sub-domain names into the same Oracle APEX instance (through the one DAD) each mapped to a different application id. Therefore I don't think the solution in the link will work for me - as this embeds a single domain name in the DADS.CONF.
    Two questions:
    - Is it possible to set the "HTTP_HOST" in "dads.conf" using an existing HTTP Header value? - my proxy can pass on the original domain as "HTTP_X_FORWARDED_HOST". So if it was possible to use (say: using whatever form/syntax of parameterisation is available) ?
    >
    PlsqlCGIEnvironmentList HTTP_HOST=%{HTTP_X_FORWARDED_HOST}
    >
    If it can then that would work for me. It would be great if modl_plsql handled this out of the box as I understand the "X-FORWARDED" approach is pretty standard in the proxy world including passing on original IP addresses. Hitting an phpinfo() site shows headers
    >
    HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR     192.168.2.100
    HTTP_X_FORWARDED_HOST     dev.mycompany.com:443
    HTTP_X_FORWARDED_SERVER     mycompany.com
    >
    - Alternatively is it possible in APEX environment to set the #HOST# from the HTTP Header "HTTP_X_FORWARDED_HOST" if it exists for all requests?
    Thanks

    Hi Donna,
    changing the CGI environment variables HTTP_HOST, REQUEST_PROTOCOL and SERVER_PORT is the correct way how to resolve this, because it appears that your hiding the web server where you have installed mod_plsql or EPG by a different outside facing web server (also called reverse proxy). That's why APEX gets the host name, protocol and port of the internal web server, but should actually get the values of your reverse proxy web server. Can can fix that by changing the following CGI environment variables.
    HTTP_HOST should just contain the domain name (no protocol or port). For example: www.oracle.com
    REQUEST_PROTOCOL should contain http or https
    SERVER_PORT should be the port for https
    I don't want to add a new cgi variable called HOST because HOST sounds so generic and it might interfere with something else running in our environment. Or, I don't want to change the plsql cgi environment variable (such as HTTP_HOST) because many developers may use owa_util.get_cgi_env('HTTP_HOST') to get the current server. If the SERVER_PORT is part of the #HOST# then what could I change it to if it needs to be null. If you leave it blank, then the default SERVER_PORT comes from the CGI variables.The value of HTTP_HOST is wrong anyway and points to your internal web server, but I assume your developers actually want to get the host name of your external web server if they use it to generate absolute URLs. That's why I wouldn't bother and set it to the correct host name.

  • (Bash) How to set a variable with text from a file? [SOLVED]

    I'm having a little problem.
    I have textfile with a single line of text. What I want to do is set a variable with that line of text. How do I go about doing that?
    A simple var="text" wont work in this case, since the text in the file changes with another script of mine.
    Thanks in advance.

    if you have a file with more than one line but you only want the first line you could use 'head'
    VAR=`head -n 1 file`

  • How to set a variable's value from job output

    Can anyone point me at documentation on how to set the value of a variable based on the output of a job? We are running TES v6.0.2.153.
    The Agent/Adapter is a Linux command line, so the Command could be for example:
    echo foo
    and I would like a variable named bar to contain the value foo.  (Obviously in real life the variable value would be dependent on what the command output)
    Thanks in advance,
    Martin

    One more nugget: to parse the response from a command from a UNIX/Linux agent for a specific string and store that in a variable, I followed Rami's advice and then had to find the string in the output.
    The below example puts the first digit of a random number in the variable:
    Job Command:
    bash -c
    Command Parameters:
    "'echo' Random number is $RANDOM | perl -ple 's/.*Random number is (\d{1}).*/\1/'"
    Note that your command itself (in this case "echo") cannot be put in the Command box, otherwise TES does not interpret the Command Parameters correctly.  So you need to set the Command to "bash -c" (run the command in the parameter string), and enter your command and parameters within double quotes in the Command Parameters, with the command being run (in this case "echo") in single quotes at the beginning.
    (I also had to make my .bash_profile run without any output to avoid it being prefixed to the variable value.)
    Hope this helps,
    Martin.
