How Upload File To Custom Action

We have requirement of uploading file from page to our action class where the file will be processed. We have created a action class using, GSF,
public class MyAction extends RenderPage
I want to send file from web page. In java we use apache commons file upload jar. This jar needs HTTPRequest object. However in my action I have ics variable which contains the request parameters.
Is there any way to do file upload using webcenter sites api? OR
Is there any way I can get the HTTPRequest object in action? OR
Any other thought?

Hi,
You need to use
create iXOS doc:
ARCHIV_CREATE_TABLE
delete iXOS doc:
First ARCHIV_GET_CONNECTIONS and then ALINK_DELETE or better CALL METHOD CL_ALINK_CONNECTION=>DELETE_BY_KEY
It's best to create an FM for this
view iXOS doc:
ARCHIV_GET_CONNECTIONS
All these FMs are available on your iXOS system. Check doc for detailed info

How to define a Custom Action in VC 6.0 ?

Hi all
I want to know how to define a custom action like for a check box UI Element, I want particular action to be performed when it is checked ? How can I achieve this in VC 6.0
Please feel free to ask me if my question is unclear ?
Regards
Kapil

Hi,
Try adding an expression element on your form.
Go to the Expression control properties and in the Expression attribute enter
IF(@Selected==true,"X"," ")
@Selected is the checkbox. For your function call input use the expression element and not the checkbox.
Hope this helps. Let me know if it works.
Thanks.

Delete an uploaded file (in custom table) from a report

Hi,
I have a report of uploaded files (the files are saved in my own table, not in APEX_APPLICATION_FILES) - I'd like to add a delete link to each file in my report so that the user can delete a particular file.
How do I go about doing this?
Thanks.

Melissa,
It is now working. You missed couple of things:
1. javascript in the header
2. you were pointing to the page 1 and your process was on the page 2
3. you passed the value to a non existing item on the page 3
4. the request which would fire the delete process was triggered by a wrong request

How to call a custom action class present in one DC from a different DC

Hi Experts,
I have to implement one email functionality in my project.This functionality works fine if I use the Standard EmailAction class present in com.sap.isa.cic.customer package,but we need to change the email IDs in some cases so,we need to create a custom class.But if I create a custom Action class in Another DC(shext) and try to call this class from the config file present in the other DC(From where the Standard class was called),I am getting no Action Instance found for the declared Action(This Happens when the class is not present ).
From the error I interpreted that the presence of the Custom Action class is not recognised by the The DC.
Please confirm If my understanding is correct.
I also tried adding a a new public part in shrext and tried adding the same in the used dc for the DC from where I am trying to call the class.But the activity fails and it gives me the error that the DCs are Broken.Do I need to build the DCs after adding a public part or a used DC?
Please answer If anybody has faced the same issue or has a solution to it.
Thanks

Hi All,
I was able to resolve this issue myself.
I had to include the DC crm/isa/lwc and the DC mail in the used DCs of SHREXT .
So,all the jars got included automatically and I was able to create a new custom class for the required functionality.
Its working fine now.

Upload file without user action.

Hi,
Here is my requirement: I need to upload file ( text / excel file ) from local PC without user interaction.
I try using file_upload element and I set visible property as none ( so user doesn't see this element ) but I don't know how to get the file data. I only can set the file_name and mime_type property.
Please help me how to get this file data. Or how to upload file from local PC without file_upload element.
Regards,

Hi Jatra.
I guess there are several function modules you can use. Try this : UPLOAD_FILES.
Maybe you can solve your issue with it. Otherwise search the Abap Forum on how to upload files from PC to WAS.

How to file a customer service complaint?

Hello,
I pre-ordered the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 with the Galaxy Gear. Of course I did this as soon as the Pre-order was available in order to receive it the first day. I chatted with a sales representative online who assured me I needed to order it as a new customer (even though I have an existing account) in order to keep my unlimited data. I did just that and he guided me through the process. Then on the weekend I noticed an e-mail that said my order was put on hold and I needed to contact customer service who wouldn't be available until Monday. First, the customer service agent put me on hold multiple times, trying to transfer me to someone else then as I waited patiently, he hung up on me. I called back and was told that the phone was NOT supposed to be ordered under a new account even though the first sales rep specifically told me to do just that. My order was cancelled and redone. Now it turns out that my shipping day has been pushed back to 10/12 instead of the original 10/10 for something that was not my fault. I called AGAIN asking for my order to be bumped back up to the original shipping date since this was not my fault. He said there was nothing he could do because the system is automatic with pre-orders and it's first come first serve. I reiterated that I DID place the order as soon as it was available. If the Verizon sales rep gave me the wrong instructions, it should not affect my order. He still said there was nothing he can do. I really don't buy it. He said that I could try and contact someone higher up but then couldn't even guide me to the right phone number or e-mail address because the only one on the Verizon page was the same one I used to contact him! Then I asked if I could complain about the Sales Rep giving wrong instructions and he didn't even know how to do that. I mean there's probably other people that are having this same issue. At least try and stop it. This is ridiculous. I pre-ordered the phone immediately, asked a sales rep for assistance in order to make sure it all went smoothly AND spent over $1,000 on this order alone. I should at least get the phone on the first day.

So I have been a customer since 1991 and today has been such a poor customer service experience I had to write in.
We recently moved and the service in the area is poor, Verizon admits it's "below its standards" and offers to sell me a network extender for $250. I told them I wouldn't pay for something that is needed because the service is poor. They came back and said they could give me a 'deal' and send it to me for $100. OK, for $100 I'll try it rather than switch everyone in my house to AT&T (which I have on my work paid for phone and service is excellent). Device comes and doesn't even connect to GPS for a signal. Two tech later and me looking at the box it says it's a 'refurbished unit'. In talking to customer service today they tell me refirb units are only $100. The first person never told me that. So now they want to send me a new unit (back to the $250). What a deceptive group, and this on top of the fact that the service sucks.
Off to AT&T at lunch since Verizon told me I could get out of the contracts because the service doesn't meet the minimum standards.

How to get uploaded file details in custom page

Hi,
I need to navigate to custom page after multiple file upload and display details of file uploaded in the custom page.
Is there any variable which indicates the files uploaded that can be used in my custom page?
Thanks in advance,
dhijit

Hi,
According to your description, you want to get uploaded file details after uploading the files in a custom page.
I suggest you create an event receiver in the custom page so that you can get file details when the files are added to the document library.
Here is a code snippet for your reference:
       public override void ItemAdded(SPItemEventProperties properties)
           base.ItemAdded(properties);
           string fileURL = properties.ListItem.Web.Url + "/" + properties.ListItem.File.Url;

How to "Add" Button to upload file in Notification PG?

I have a question on Extending/Customizing notfn to have "Add" attachment button to upload a document (some stnd template that Our business has) on either NotifDetailsPG or /oracle/apps/fnd/wf/worklist/webui/MoreInfoPG when a Approver opens notification to APPROVE/Reject
I'm wondering why Oracle didn't provide this feature of Uploading a file (along with Response input text area that they provided already) in NotifDetailsPG?
Business Reason: Our Business wants to upload a doc when an approver Rejects the notification (our case: iExpense module filing Exp Report) telling employee to follow some protocals
Question on OAF:
Is it possible to extend NotifDetailsPG or MoreInfoPG to upload a file. So, that when it goes to requestor they can open this file back and read thru. I know we need to insert a record in fnd_documents and fnd_attached_documents and /or fnd_lobs...but i don't know how to retrieve it back....Any hints....
Thanks
Raghu Kulkarni

to clarify again....
In the WF notification during the time of "Reject"ion or "Approv"al, we want to upload a file and then perform Reject/Approve action. Can we extend the page to have Add button to upload file? Is that a lot of work?
Please any one give some suggestions...Thanks

How to SCAN uploaded files for VIRUS in APEX

The process:
Followed the document from www.developer.com:
Implementing an Anti-Virus File Scan in JEE Applications
By Vlad Kofman
Go to page: 1 2 3 Next
This article will discuss one of the ways to implement antivirus file scanning in Java, particular in the JEE applications. Viruses, Trojan Horses, and different malware and spyware are a real problem for current computer environments, and especially for the Windows operating system. If you are designing any application in Java that has a requirement to be able to upload external files, you have a potential security risk. By uploading, I mean any way to get the external file inside of the corporate firewall be it via HTTP protocol or any other means. It is quite common to have this type of requirement in an enterprise application and with Java being one of the most popular web development platforms, it is unfortunate that this type of gaping security risk is quite often overlooked.
Java's Development Kit (JDK) does not have any means to do the antivirus scan right out of the box. This is primarily because Java is a programming language, and does not have any virus scanning packages. Furthermore, anti-virus software is not Sun's area of expertise or business model. Developing this type of software (or Java package), and more importantly maintaining it, would be a huge task for Sun. Mainly because viruses are constantly evolving and keeping virus definitions up-to-date is a daunting task. Large companies such as McAffee, Symantec, or Zone Labs develop virus detecting and combating products and spend a lot of resources to maintain them.
Application Environment
To implement a virus file scan in Java, a third-party package needs to be used. For the purposes of this article, I will use Symantec Scan Engine (SSE) package, which comes with Java APIs. This package is an application that serves as a TCP/IP server and has a programming interface and enables Java applications to incorporate support for content scanning technologies. For this article, I used Symantec Scan Engine 5.1, which is available as a Unix or Windows install.
If you are using an anti-virus package from the different vendor, you will need to investigate what kind of APIs are available; however, the general approach should be similar. Also, note that my implementation can be used with JEE technology and any modern MVC framework such as Struts or Spring.
The architecture is as follows: A server machine needs to have SSE running at all times. This can be the same machine that hosts your Application Server, but in an enterprise environment this should be a different machine. The Default Port needs to be open through the firewall to allow communication with the scan engine. All JEE applications that need to do file scanning can talk to the SSE server machine through a default port. Also, multiple applications running on different application servers can re-use the same scanning server. For more information, you should refer to the Symantec Scan Engine (SSE) Installation Guide, available on the Symantec web site.
When an external file that needs to be scanned is sent to the SSE via its programming interface (Java APIs using the default port), before any other operation on the file is performed, the SSE returns a result code. For instance, a file is uploaded by an external user into the web email type application as an attachment; then, the SSE API is invoked by the application and the return code of pass or fail determines the outcome of the upload and whether that email can actually be sent. If you have an account on Yahoo mail, you probably have seen that Yahoo is using Norton Antivirus to scan all attachments, although no Java.
Click here for a larger image.
Figure 1: Screen shot from Yahoo
For details on the Scan Engine Server Installationm please see the Symantec Scan Engine (SSE) Implementation Guide from Symantec.
Here are some key things to remember about SSE:
•     Java 2 SE Runtime (JRE) 5.0 Update 6.0 or later must be installed on the server before the SSE installation is done.
•     After installation, verify that the Symantec Scan Engine daemon is running. At the Unix command prompt (if it's a Unix install), type the following command:
ps –ea | grep sym.
A list of processes similar to the following should appear:
o     5358 ? 0:00 symscan
o     5359 ? 0:00 symscan
If nothing is displayed the SSE process did not start.
If the SSE process did not start, type the following command to restart SSE:
/etc/init.d/symscan restart
•     Keeping the virus definition up to date is the most important task and if new updates are not installed, the whole scan becomes ineffective. Symantec automatically downloads the most current file definitions through LiveUpdate. Please make sure that firewall rules are in place to allow the host server to connect to the Symantec update service.
Project Setup
For the purposes of this article, I included a wrapper for the Symantec SSE APIs, av.jar, which has Symantec Java APIs and serves as a client to the SSE server and takes care of all communications with the server. Please refer to the download source section. The av.jar should be included in the Java CLASSPATH to work with the SSE. This jar contains a class called AVClient that takes care of actually sending the files to SSE as byte arrays and returning the result.
In my project setting, I added three variables to be accessed via the System.getProperty mechanism. For example:
AV_SERVER_HOST=192.168.1.150
AV_SERVER_PORT=1344
AV_SERVER_MODE=SCAN
The AV_SERVER_HOST is the host name or IP of the machine where Scan Engine is installed.
The AV_SERVER_PORT is the port where Scan Engine listens for incoming files.
The AV_SERVER_MODE is the scan mode which can be:
•     NOSCAN: No scanning will be done (any keyword that does not start with "SCAN" will result in ignoring the call to the Scan Engine and no files will be transferred for scanning).
•     SCAN: Files or the byte stream will be scanned, but the scan engine will not try to repair infections.
•     SCANREPAIR: Files will be scanned, the scan engine will try to repair infections, but nothing else will be done.
•     SCANREPAIRDELETE: Files will be scanned, the scan engine will try to repair infections, and irreparable files will be deleted.
Note: For the file stream (byte array) scanning, the only meaning full values are "SCAN" and "NOSCAN".
Using the SSE Scanning Java APIs
In any class where scan is required, call the scanning API provided in the AVClient object located in the av.jar. The AVClient object will establish connection to the Scan Engine server and has the following APIs:
Figure 2: The significant APIs for the communication with to the Scan Engine Server.
If scanning a file on the file system, in SCAN only mode, use the call that accepts filename only.
If scanning a file on the file system, with SCANREPAIR or SCANREPAIRDELETE, use the call that accepts input and output file names.
If scanning an in-memory file (byte array), use the call accepting byte array.
For example:
import com.av.*;
Initialize setup parameters:
static String avMode =
(System.getProperty("AV_SERVER_MODE") != null)
? (String) System.getProperty("AV_SERVER_MODE") : "NOSCAN";
static boolean scan = avMode.startsWith("SCAN");
static String avServer =
(String) System.getProperty("AV_SERVER_HOST");
static int avPort =
Integer.parseInt( (String) System.getProperty("AV_SERVER_PORT"));
Scan check example for an in-memory file byte array:
public void scanFile(byte[] fileBytes, String fileName)
throws IOException, Exception {
if (scan) {
AVClient avc = new AVClient(avServer, avPort, avMode);
if (avc.scanfile(fileName, fileBytes) == -1) {
throw new VirusException("WARNING: A virus was detected in
your attachment: " + fileName + "<br>Please scan
your system with the latest antivirus software with
updated virus definitions and try again.");
Note that if you are using this code inside of the MVC handler, you can throw a custom VirusException and check for it in the calling method and perform any necessary cleanup. I have included the class in the AV Jar as well.
For example:
catch (Exception ex) {
logger.error(ex);
if (ex instanceof VirusException) {
// do something here
else {
// there was some other error – handle it
For more details on the Scan Engine Client API, please see Symantec Scan Engine Software Developers Guide.

d)     my2.java – This is the class file I wrote to test that I am able to send a file and scan it and see the output in the JDEVELOPER. In this case the file is stored on the filesystem of the client machine. JDEVELOPER should be able to see the file.
NOTE:
“EICAR.com” is the test file downloaded from Symantec site to test a non malicious virus file. I n order to be able to test it like this, the Antivirus program running on your machine should be disabled, or else Antivirus will kick in and delete the file. In the first place you will not be able to download the test virus file either with anti virus running on the machine you are downloading to.
package com.av;
import java.io.*;
public class my2 {
static int my_return = 0;
* @param fileBytes
* @param fileName
* @return
public static int scanfile(String fileName){
String avMode = "SCAN";
boolean scan = avMode.startsWith("SCAN");
String avServer = "xx";--avserver ip address
int avPort = 1344;
int the_return = 0;
if (scan) {
AVClient avc = new AVClient(avServer,avPort,avMode);
the_return = avc.scanfile(fileName);
if (the_return == -1) {
return (the_return);
} else
return (the_return);
//my_return = the_return;
return (the_return);
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
System.out.println("Hi there in Main");
byte[] b1 = new byte[4];
b1[1] = 68;
my_return = scanfile("c:\\eicar.com");
System.out.println(my_return);
e)     Then finally we have my1.JAVA, which takes the filename, and it’s contents in the bytes form and scans the file. The reason for this method is we are not storing the file on the filesystem, it is read into the memory and only if it is clean, it is put into the database or else notify the user.
package com.av;
import java.io.*;
public class my1 {
static int my_return = 0;
static int a_length = 0;
* @param fileBytes
* @param fileName
* @return
public static int scanfile(String fileName,byte[] fileBytes) throws IOException {
String avMode = "SCAN";
boolean scan = avMode.startsWith("SCAN");
String avServer = "xxx";--avserver’s ip address
int avPort = 1344;
int the_return = 0;
if (scan) {
AVClient avc = new AVClient(avServer,avPort,avMode);
// File file = new File(fileName) ;
//byte[] fBytes = getBytesFromFile(file);
the_return = avc.scanfile(fileName, fileBytes);
if (the_return == -1) {
return (the_return);
} else
{return (the_return);}
my_return = the_return;
return (the_return);
// Returns the contents of the file in a byte array.
* @param file
* @return
* @throws IOException
public static byte[] getBytesFromFile(File file) throws IOException {
InputStream is = new FileInputStream(file);
// Get the size of the file
long length = file.length();
// You cannot create an array using a long type.
// It needs to be an int type.
// Before converting to an int type, check
// to ensure that file is not larger than Integer.MAX_VALUE.
if (length > Integer.MAX_VALUE) {
// File is too large
// Create the byte array to hold the data
byte[] bytes = new byte[(int)length];
// Read in the bytes
int offset = 0;
int numRead = 0;
while (offset < bytes.length
&& (numRead=is.read(bytes, offset, bytes.length-offset)) >= 0) {
offset += numRead;
// Ensure all the bytes have been read in
if (offset < bytes.length) {
throw new IOException("Could not completely read file "+file.getName());
// Close the input stream and return bytes
is.close();
return bytes;
// public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
//System.out.println("Hi there in Main");
// File file = new File() ;
// byte[] b1 = getBytesFromFile(file);
//System.out.println(b1);
// my_return = scanfile(,b1);
//System.out.println(my_return); }
Finally , you have the exceptions file,
e) package com.av;
public class VirusException
extends Exception {
public VirusException() {
super();
public VirusException(String text) {
super(text);
Once you have all these classes, you can use JDEVELOPER , to load these classes into the database: This is as follows:
Right click on the project, which has all these classes.
NEW -> deployment profiles -> load java and stored procedures.
When you are created deployment profile, you have to specify,
Loadjava options.
-f, -v (check the check boxes)
Under privileges:
-s – specify database schema these classes are loaded into
-s – create sysnonym check box
-g – grant to public or any specific users per your policy.
Under Resolver,
-r and –o (check the check boxes)
I accepted the default name storedproc1. Then you right click on the storedproc1.deploy, deploy to whichever database connection you created.
And then, In order to access this java class we need a pl/sql wrapper as follows:
create or replace package my1 is
function mycheck (pfilename in varchar2, psize in number)
return number;
end my1;
create or replace package body my1 is
     function mycheck (pfilename in varchar2, psize in number)
return number is
language java
     name 'com.av.my1.scanfile(java.lang.String, byte[]) return int';
     end my1;
And the code is invoked from sql plus as follows:
Select my1.mycheck(“filename”, “filebytes”) from dual;
One important catch in the above method is to send the filename and filecontents in bytes form. In order to send the file contents as filebytes, you will need another java class and load into the data base as described above.

Having main method helps you to run the file in JDEVELOPER or using JAVA.
DO not forget to load this class into the database.
And you create the pl/sql wrapper again as follows:
create or replace FUNCTION TOBY (pfilename in varchar2) RETURN VARCHAR2 iS
language java name
'ReadFileIntoByteArray.chk_file(java.lang.String) return byte[]';
And you call the function from sqlplus as follows:
Sql>Set serveroutput on size 20000;
Sql> call dbms_java.set_output(20000);
Sql> Select toby(“filename”) from dual; --
this file should be accessible, I mean you will not be able to send a file on your pc, from sql plus as sql/plus is running on your db server.
You will be able to see the output in sql plus:
If you are running it from the APEX:
When we use file browser widget from APEX, the file is stored in APEX_APPLICATION_FILES table. And we retrieve that into a variable and pass this variable to the function as follows:
DECLARE
scan_failed EXCEPTION;
x varchar2(400);
z number;
BEGIN
select filename into x from wwv_flow_files where name = :P1_FILE_NAME;
select my1.mycheck(x,toby(x)) into z from dual;
if z = 0 then
:P1_SUBJECT:= 'PASSED';
else
:P1_SUBJECT:= 'FAILED';
end if;
:P1_SCAN_RESULT := '** Scanning File **';
IF UPPER(:P1_SUBJECT) = 'PASSED' THEN
BEGIN
:P1_SCAN_FLAG := 'PASSED';
:P1_SCAN_RESULT := :P1_SCAN_RESULT || ' ** File passed scan **';
END;
ELSIF UPPER(:P1_SUBJECT) = 'FAILED' THEN
BEGIN
:P1_SCAN_FLAG := 'FAILED';
:P1_SCAN_RESULT := :P1_SCAN_RESULT || ' ** File failed scan **';
END;
ELSE
BEGIN
:P1_SCAN_FLAG := 'UNKNOWN';
:P1_SCAN_RESULT := :P1_SCAN_RESULT || ' ** Scan Is Not Conclussive **';
END;
END IF;
--IF :P1_SCAN_FLAG = 'FAILED'
-- THEN RAISE scan_failed;

How can i Upload Files from my Flex 2.0 Application?

How can i do a Upload File funtionality with Flex 2.0? Do i
have to make the component? How is the code in Flex/ Action Script
to make this possible?. I'm new in this Flex world and it seems to
me very interesting to make RIA's Applications; in fact i'm making
a little Employees Application for my company and i'm trying this
technology and of course i need the functionality that i asking
for.
Regards.
Andres.

I haven't tried this, but I believe what you could do is
append
requestHeaders to the urlrequest object that you pass into
the file.upload()
method. The requestHeaders is an array of name/value pairs
that would be
included with your post. At least in theory, I believe that
shoudl work.
Good luck.

How to add a record in document library without upload file.

Hi,
how to add a record in document library without upload file?
Is it possible? I want to create a folders in Document Library but inside folders i do not want to upload a file instead of just i want to create a record. I will map my local file path to the records.
Can anyone help me on it?
Thanks & Regards
Poomani Sankaran

Hello Sankaran,
document library is to upload documents, without document you will not be able to add a record or Item to it.
for your requirement you can use a list and enable folders within the list and maintain the local path of the file as an item in list.
