Bpel parsing issue with special characters...

Hi All,
We are integrating Oracle Sales Order information with OTM as Order Releases.
For this we are sending the Sales Order in the form of clob from the procedure to the Bpel process.
1. A PL/SQL procedure would send the Sales order XML as a CLOB.
2.In the BPEL process , we are performing ora:parseXML() function on the clob obtained.
3.A patch was installed on the BPEL SOA server:
10.1.3.3.1 MLR#8, Patch#6906880 which was supposed to handle all the parsing activities at run time.
4. But when ever any special character viz..; #,UNIT¿S etc the BPEL process is failing with a fault string due to Parsing error.
5. Could you please provide us a workaround for solving this issue ASAP with all the special characters.
I have provided a sample xml tag due to which the parsing is failing in the bpel process. here it is failing because it is not able to parse : UNITÂ¿S successfully...

Issue with special characters in SAP CRM ICSS application.

Hi ,
I have issue with the special character in CRM web application.
1. In CRM IC Webclient application(5.0) . i am copying and pasting some special characters in the description of the service request document. then this is saving the character as it is.
But when i am opening the same service request in SAP CRM ICSS(Internet Customer Self-Service) application, then the special characters are converting to different characters.
I am not sure whether this is the right forum for this or not.
Can anyone please suggest how can i correct this. Or is there any standard solution to handle the special characters in ICSS.
Thanks

Original (Coming - output): "<PAY_TXT>PAYκ Contact your bank or financial institution to make this payment from your cheque, savings, debit or transaction account.</PAY_TXT>"
it's in output but what is data in database ?
sorry but without knowing about source data for forming the xml i haven't ideas about your problem
in db it's "TM " or "™" or ... ?
Original (Coming - output): "<PAY_TXT>PAYκ Contact your bank or financial institution to make this payment from your cheque, savings, debit or transaction account.</PAY_TXT>"
Something like XAE or "K" after PAY Value in the xml tag and continued the text value. (Tag value is not getting copied exactly here - i am sorry for that )
that's ok. i need to see the problem not the data as is
Expected (output): "Here it needs to produce the "PAY TM" (Here "TM" should be super scripted to "PAY" Value in tag).
as super scripted in xml?
as idea - you can have <PAY_TXT>PAY TM</PAY_TXT> and in publisher set TM as super

Issues with Microsoft Vista and Crystal Report XI R2 with SP2

Hi,
I have an application which works fine on XP but fails to work on Vista. When I go to view a report I get the following error:
"The request could not be submitted for background processing."
I have searched a great deal but most solutions to this problem affect other versions or are for different reasons (ie. also do not work on XP). My report viewer works as expected on XP, but not on Vista.
I have installed SP2 for CRXI R2 which should enable compatibility with Vista. I am using Visual Studio 2005.
Anyone have any ideas or come across Vista problems?
MS Vista Business, joined to a domain. 1.7gig. 512 ram. Test machine.
Thanks in advance,
Jon.

The "...background processing..." error can occur for many different reasons, but usually, it's is related to some kind of database connectivity. Are you reports based on ADO.NET? If so, make sure that the data being returned in your ADO.NET object machines the schema used to design the report.
The best way I troubleshoot these types of issues is to simply the app/report. So create a really simple Windows app that loads your reports and has only the necessary code to run your report. And then copy your test app and report to the machine and see if it throws the same error. This would test if it's an environmental issue (ie: runtime files) or if it's something with the logic of your application.
Also, if it's possible, try running the report from the CR Designer on the Vista machine to see if it can run from the designer itself. Of course this means you'll need to install CR if you don't already have it.
Hopefully this puts you in the right direction.

Annoying issue with "special characters"

I need to produce these special characters:
¤
and
ø
Now ofcourse I can copy and paste to get them, but after writing them to a file, they don't produce the same character, if that doesn't make sense I'll try to clear it up. I run a windows game through wine, and in the configuration file I need to use special characters in my name, they look fine in the editor, after I write the file, then go in game, the characters are completely different. Which is quite annoying. Is there anyway I can get these to truely be the character I want on linux?
edit:
more info, I wrote the file with vim, I then opened it with nano to see exactly what I saw in game. Is this an output problem of vim?

Issue with New Release Deploying Crystal Reports for Visual Studio 2010

Previously I created a deployment project with Visual Studio 2010 using the Beta 2 release of the distributable. This worked fine and installed on a 32-bit XP machine.
I've since updated the project to use the new Release version of the distributable CRRuntime_32bit_13_0.msi. Now when I run the installed program it gives me the following message -
"An error has occurred while attempting to load the Crystal Reports runtime. Either the Crystal Reports registry key permissions are insufficient, or the Crystal Reports runtime is not installed correctly. Please install the appropriate Crystal Reports redistributable (CRRedist*.msi) containing the correct version of the Crystal Reports runtime (x86, x64, or Itanium) required. Please go to http://www.businessobjects.com/support for more information."
I've had a look at verious posts and added code to the app.config file so it looks like -
<startup useLegacyV2RuntimeActivationPolicy="true">
<supportedRuntime version="v4.0" sku=".NETFramework,Version=v4.0"/>
</startup>
and also tried targetting various .NET frameworks, but without success.
Am I missing something?

Hello,
More info, are you installing on the same PC as the Beta was installed on or a clean PC?
Your app must be set to the full framework, not the client version.
Are you installing by right clicking on your setup.exe and selecting run as administrator?
Setting that option in the app.config is only required if you are using that driver you found the info on.
Run ProcessMonitor and set it to filter your installer and see what it reports.
Thank you
Don

In general, find the character you want within your fonts, then learn it's equivalent ASCII, then use a formula:
if uppercase({table.field}) = "T" thenchr(63)else{table.field}
You can test what the ASCII code is using:
ASC("u221A")

Displaying special characters in ALV report.

Hi Experts,
Can we display special characters in ALV reports? Special characters such as tick mark.(Like in character map(Font Bookshelf Symbol 7) of windows ).
I tried with icons in ALV report, I was able to display tick icon in the ALV report, but when we export the report in to a excel, the icons comes in as Hexadecimal code.
Can any we display special characters like tick in ALV report or display the icons in excel aswell?
I will be gratefull for the <urgency reduced by moderator> response.

Problems with special characters like "u00F6" "u00E4" "u00FC"

Hi,
we currently face some major problems with special characters like "ö" "ä" "ü". First I thought it is a SP02 specific problem but it still doesn't work with SP03.
When I start an import the import manager shows correct converted value. "ö"s "ä"s "ü"s are displayed correctly. But after I've done the import I look into the Data manager and I see instead of these characters charcaters like "̈". (note: the character should show a little square box - but the forum cannot desplay it)
How can I solve this problem?
Regards
Nico

Hi Nico
Just try it out the following steps, hope it solves ur issue.
<b>To set one or more values back to their original values:</b>
1. In the Import Manager Source Values grid, select the values that you want to set back to their original values.
2. Right-click on one of the values and choose Set to Original Value from the context menu, or choose Values > Apply Value Conversion Filter > Set to Original Value from the main menu.
3. MDME sets each value back to its original value, which appears in black in the Source Values grid.
<b>NOTE : You can use the Set to Original Value filter only at the value-level and not at the field level.</b>
thanks

Problem figuring out the encoding for filenames with special characters

I'm not sure if this is the right forum, but this does seem like an OS issue.
I brought in a lot of mp3 and m3u files from a Windows machine to my new Mac. Some of the mp3 files have accented characters in their names, and these names appear in the m3u files. But if I add the m3u file to iTunes, it fails to recognize these names and so I lose all the mp3's with special characters in their names.
I tried to fix this by grabbing the files name in Python, but that didn't work either!
Here's an example: the file's name is "Voilà l'été.mp3"
The m3u files says "Voil\xe0 l'\xe9t\xe9.mp3" -- this doesn't work.
From os.listdir(), I get Voila\xcc\x80 l'e\xcc\x81te\xcc\x81.mp3", but sticking it in an m3u files doesn't work either. (Note that here the characters are encoded as unaccented letter + two byte code for the accent).
When I try these strings from python, e.g. doing os.stat(), they both work; but iTunes doesn't understand any of them!
I'd appreciate any hints on how to enter these names in the m3u file so that iTunes can read it. Thanks!

I know nothing about "m3u" files and how iTunes interprets the file names in them, but if it is not a relative/absolute path problem, then how about just putting the raw file names (not the ones with backslash escape) in m3u file? For example, just put
Voilà l'été.mp3
in m3u?
As for Unicode encoding, HFS+ file system uses the "decomposed form" for accented characters. This means, as you write, à is hex "61 cc 80" in UTF-8, i.e., "a + COMBINING GRAVE ACCENT". The pre-composed form is hex "c3 a0". But my experience is that in most cases both pre-composed and decomosed forms work at the user level (not at the lowest file system level).

Empty datafile with special characters in name

Hello all
I'm having an issue with an empty datafile that is in recover mode.
Previously the following has been successful :
alter database create datafile 'fully_qualified_file_name' as 'fully_qualified_file_name' ;
recover datafile 'fully_qualified_file_name' ;
alter database datafile 'fully_qualified_file_name' online;
However this time it doesnt work as I get errors :
ORA-01516: nonexistent log file, data file, or temporary file
Using the file id doesnt work either.
When I created a control file trace I can see the datafile has special characters in the name :
'/oracle/PRD/112_64/dbs/PSPR3I ^?;^?'
As it is empty, would it be possible to create anothr empty datafile
using :
alter database create datafile '/oracle/PRD/112_64/dbs/PSPR3I ^?;^?'
as '/oracle/PRD/spdata2/r3i_8/r3i.data8';
then recover datafile 'fully_qualified_file_name' ;
alter database datafile 'fully_qualified_file_name' online;
How do oracle commands cope with special characters?
Thanks for your advice

It should work using a file number as the source file definition and a new name for the new file. Works for me:orcl> alter database create datafile 7 as 'c:\tmp\newname.dbf';
Database altered.
