Mac OS X : ORA-09925: Unable to create audit trail file

I have followed the instuctions on Oracle's site:
http://www.oracle.com/technology/tech/macos/index.html
specifically the Blog pages by Sergio and Anthony and have encountered a couple problems:
1) I got this error when running the db config assitant (dbca) as per Anthony's steps:
ORA-09925: Unable to create audit trail file
I was running this from a shell while logged onto the gui as my admin id (mtaylor) then running
sudo -u oracle sh
then running the ./bash_profile commands, altho I had to
cd /Users/oracle
cat .bash_profile
and then copy and paste the commands since running
./.bash_profile
and then testing by running
echo $ORACLE_HOME
gave me a blank line.
I thought that logging onto the gui as mtaylor might be the problem since I was getting 2 errors in the shell as the java initialized:
ATSFontGetFileSpecification failed: error -5000 (twice),
2) so I decided to log onto the gui as the user oracle and then open a shell. Doing this, I get to step 12 of 12, press finish and nothing happens at all. It doesn't freeze tho because I can cancel and exit with no problem.
I went back to mtaylor and tried again and now I get the same result. I may have done something else to fix my first problem meanwhile as I have been working on this for a few hours. 
I have confirmed that I am specifying the correct directories in the dbca, the .bash_profile and the files below, and that the owner:group is oracle:oinstall with r/w access:
ORACLE_BASE=/Volumes/u01/app/oracle
ORACLE_HOME="$ORACLE_BASE/product/10.1.0.3/db_1"
PATH="$PATH:~bin:$ORACLE_HOME/bin"
ORACLE_SID=orcl
My tnsnames.ora is (after default entry):
orcl.world =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)
(HOST=localhost)(PORT=1521))
(CONNECT_DATA=(SERVER=DEDICATED)(SERVICE_NAME=orcl)))
My listener.ora is:
SID_LIST_LISTENER=
(SID_LIST=
(SID_DESC=
(SID_NAME=orcl)
(ORACLE_HOME=/Volumes/u01/app/oracle/product/10.1.0.3/db_1)))
I am specifying /Volumes/u02/oradata as the datafiles location (this exists with the same permissions as above)and specifying include the example schemas.
Any ideas anyone?

    Privilege may not be appropriate or the volume where the audit log resides may be full.

  • ORA-01658: unable to create INITIAL extent for segment in tablespace

    NEW REPOSITORY INSTALLATION ERROR!!
    I want to install a new Repository using Oracle9iR9.2.0.1 and iDS10g on windowsXP Professional the same machine.
    After running all the SQL scripts ( ckqa,ckvalqa,ckcreate,ckreport) with success to installing a new Repository on my Database using "the Scripts Method",I start the Repository Administration Utility( RAU) to scheck the priveleges and so on.
    After pressing the Install button in the RAU:
    -I take public synonyms
    -I scheck the box for "Support Designer Objects", then
    -The Repository size is Medium
    -I have not change the defauft Tablespace of the Repository_Manager names TEMPORARY_TABLES to store the index and table of System Data....Diagram Data.
    After Starting, the Installation began an stop by installing some Tables like schown :

    When I read the Help of the Error the
    CAUSE was: Failed to find sufficient contiguous Space to allocate INITIAL extend for Segment being created.
    ACTION: Use ALTER TABLESPACE ADD DATAFILE to add additional space to the tablespace or retry with a smaller Value for initial.
    I then try to resolve it by schecking and changing the Values of INITIAL_VALUE and NEXT_VALUE in the ckparams.txt to 500k.I change the Values of TEMPORARY_TABLES(10214 to 51200k) and TEMPORARY_INDEXES from (20000 to 100000k).Then I run the scripts @ckparams.txt, @ckvalqa, @ckcreate but
    -pressing the Scheck Privileges Button on the RAU still give me 106k for the INITIAL_ and NEXT_VALUE.
    -And the installato still stop with the same Error.
    Question: How schould I resolve this Configuration?
    You could respond in ENGLICH, GERMAN or FRENCH
    Thank you for your Help!

    You are running into database errors. You should refer to the database documentation on how to adjust the size your tablespaces. The online Designer installation guide will advise you as to the sizes of tablespaces you require.

  • Getting error while creating form and report on webservice: ORA-20001: Unable to create form on table. ORA-02263: need to specify the datatype for this column.

    i exported the application from apex.oracle.com and imported it to our environment
    import went fine, but when I ran the IR page I got
    ORA-20001: get_dbms_sql_cursor error ORA-00904: : invalid identifier
    evidently the problem is a lack of public execute on DBMS_LOB, which is used in the generated IR source.
    while waiting for the DBA to grant privs on DBMS_LOB, changing the dbms_lob.getlength call to length() fixes the IR.
    however, i am not getting the download link on the associated form page... changed templates, that's not the issue -- we'll see if that's a dbms_lob issue as well

  • OWB maping execution :- ORA-20213: Unable to create standalone job record

    Previously, I had unregistered the target schema from "OWB Runtime Audit Browser" logging as a QA user and registered to a new schema from OWB DEPLOYMENT MANAGER.
    I am able to deploy the mapping from Owb Deployment Manager and the deployment goes OK.
    I have also gone through the links:
    OWB execution error : ORA-20213: Unable to create standalone job record
    Re: ORA-20213 during execution
    But, did not find the solution.
    When I execute the mapping from Owb Deployment Manager after right clicking on it, it is working fine. But, above execution method is not working.
    We want to run the mappings in the above way, because all our mappings in our other projects are running fine in the above sql run procedure.
    Can you please help me out, how to fix the above errors?
    Thanks & Regards,
    lenin

    Good morning Lenin,
    Since the other threads do not apply, you've gotten yourself into a strange situation.
    I'm not familiar with the method you use to run the mapping, have you tried running the mapping using the SQL-template that OWB provides or - like I do - the run_my_owb_stuff script provided by the OWB time? If not, could you try that please?
    Apart from that, I don't have any experience with your exact error message so it's hard to share anything concrete, I can only suggest things. Maybe there are other users on this forum that do, who knows...
    If you want concrete support, log a TAR with Metalink, they are obligated to help you if you have a CSI :-)
    Good luck, Patrick

  • Bug? - Getting "ORA-20001: Unable to create updateable report"

    We have created hundreds of simple tabular reports, but have come across 3 tables that we cannot get past the following error for when finishing the last step of the create wizard:
    ORA-20001: Unable to create updateable report. ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: character string buffer too small
    Error creating tabular form.
    Return to application.
    Here is the DDL for this table:
    CREATE TABLE ancfx_test
    (ANCFX_ID NUMBER(31,0) NOT NULL ENABLE,
    APP_DTL_LVL_CD VARCHAR2(160),
    NOTE_CALL_FR_TYP_CD VARCHAR2(15),
    ANCFX_VOID_IND CHAR(1) DEFAULT 'n' NOT NULL ENABLE,
    PCT_AUDT_USER_CREA VARCHAR2(30) DEFAULT 'PCT',
    PCT_AUDT_DTM TIMESTAMP (6) DEFAULT SYSDATE
    I have tried an alternate surrogate key, renaming the table, excluding the 160 character column etc., but not able to create this form.
    Based on this and the many hundreds of unique tabular forms we have created, seems we may have run across a bug?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks!

    Hi Scott,
    Turns out we did reach some sort of limit in APEX regarding how many pages can be assigned to a tab as the current tab for assigned pages. We had around 750 or more pages listed under a given tab as the current tab for those pages, which apparently created a list of page numbers in a string presumably that exceeded the maximum size for a field somewhere in APEX apparently, thus the error about the character buffer being too small. Not only could we not create new pages, but we could not even view the tab page in the shared components area for this tab without getting the error, but could get into the tab page to view the page numbers assigned to the tab.
    To get around this we had to remove all the page numbers that were listed for the tab as the current tab for those pages. Once that was done, everything was back to normal, although the tab in question is no longer shown as the current tab for any of those pages, which is not really a problem for us.
    Anyway, seems Oracle may want to review any field limits that are related to page numbers assigned to a tab to be the current tab for those pages and consider doubling that limit. In our case, 785 pages were too many for this limit, and there were no messages that helped us deduce where this was coming from - just brute force trial and error to figure this one out. Since we have more pages to go, we might run into some limits elsewhere which I'll post here if so.

  • ORA-20213: Unable to create standalone job record

    We are currently in the process of upgrading our repository from 9.0.2.56.0 to 9.2.0.2.8 and we have moved our mappings into new repository by importing an MDL file. We have successfully deployed a mapping from new repository but when we attempt to execute this mapping using:
    DECLARE
    retval NUMBER;
    BEGIN
         retval:=Map_Wm_Osa_Fund_Pl.Main(F_Initialize_Owb);
    END;
    we get the following:
    ORA-20213: Unable to create standalone job record - there may be no task defined for this map
    ORA-06512: at "PRM_OWB_RUNTIME.WB_RT_MAPAUDIT", line 1252
    ORA-06512: at "PRM_OWB_RUNTIME.WB_RT_MAPAUDIT", line 2084

    ORA-06512: at "PRM.MAP_WM_OSA_FUND_PL", line 3913
    ORA-06512: at line 4
    Any help on this would be much appreciated.

    Alright, here's the work around for this, I'm also using the following to run mapping.
    DECLARE
    RetVal NUMBER;
    P_ENV WB_RT_MAPAUDIT.WB_RT_NAME_VALUES;
    BEGIN
    -- P_ENV := NULL; Modify the code to initialize this parameter
    RetVal := SCHEMA.MAPPING.MAIN ( P_ENV );
    END;
    My mapping was running fine until I have tried to deploy it under a different location.
    Somehow OWB Runtime remembered my old location and was confused between the two. That's why you see this error.
    Option 1.
    Rewrite your mapping, this is ok if it's a small mapping.
    Option 2.
    1. Export your mapping(s) (MDL file)
    2. Delete your mapping from the repository.
    3. Import a backup of your mapping before the second location was created. (It’s doesn't matter if it's a old backup)
    (At that point you should be able to run the old mappings without error)
    4. Import the good backup over the old mapping, (use merge option during import)
    Your mapping should run now.

  • ORA-20001: Unable to create query and update page.

    I am using the wizard: Form on a table with report 2 pages. I do not change any of the values when using the wizard (just taking all default values)
    I created over 10 pages successfully already.
    When creating the one page, I received this error on clicking the 'Finish' button
    Error creating query and update.
    Return to Application
    ORA-20001: Unable to create query and update page. ORA-12899: value too large for column "FLOWS_010500"."WWV_FLOW_PAGE_PLUGS"."PLUG_QUERY_COL_ALLIGNMENTS" (actual: 269, maximum: 255)
    Seems like it might be table related since I can continue and create more forms/reports on other tables.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    336554,
    Looks like there is a 127-column limit on the number of report columns supported when using that wizard. Do you have more than that?

  • REP-0118 Unable to create a temporary file in "Windows 7 "

    We are using Report Builder Version 6.0.8.24.0 and Windows7 32 bit operating system, here
    While Running a Report through form i am getting this below
    error.
    REP-0118 Unable to create a temporary file*
    But while running the same report in a windows 98 or windowsXp PC
    i dont get this error.
    What might be the problem.
    pls advice the solution....
    thanks in Advance...
    Stalin...

    try this..
    REP-118: Unable to create a temporary file.
    Case 1: The environment variable that determines in what directory to create temporary files is set to an invalid directory.
    Case 2: There is not enough free space on the disk to create the temporary file.
    Case 3: A temporary file that cannot be modified already exist
    In regedit under branch hkey_local_machine/software/oracle/<oracle home> 
    I have changed the variable REPORTS_TMP. I changed the value for this to c:\reports_tmp
    or you can use something like this where you want Oracle reports to create temp files. Hope this helps
