New Column Still Defaulting To Value From Deleted Column With Same Name

This is strange. I had a managed metadata column called "Document Category" attached to multiple content types and set to a default value (different in each library). Then I deleted the column (all instances from libraries and references from
content types as well), and created a new site column with the same name, but a Choice field instead. The libraries that had a default value for the original column, are still populating new documents using the original default value, and it's showing up as
something like 88;#Hospital Correspondence|4b1e8da6-8653-492a-3e45e6c56c38 . The column is still a choice field, so I don't even know why it allows this value. Does anyone know why this is happening or how to fix it?

Hi Vince,
Thank you very much for sharing your solution here. It would be helpful for others who encounter similar issue.
Thanks again,

Hi all
Hope to get some help with Elements Organizer.
I have 12-15 years of digital photos that I now want to import into my newly aquirede Adobe Elements Organizer / Photoshop. Since my Nikon names the files with continous numbers from 0001 to 9999 I have multiple files with the same name although they are not alike at all. My previous software had no problems with that since I keep the photos in separate file folders based on import date. I generally import photos after each event and so name the folder with the date and some event info (e.g. 2014.12.24 - Christmas at grandparents).
That is a common situation, I have the same limitation for files not going over 9999 on my Canons...
Now - when I import my photos into Elements Organizer I get a lot of error messages with "same name exist .....) Hmmmmmmm
Please sate the exact wording of the error message, I have never seen a message stating 'same name exist...' or equivalent; only messages about files already in the catalog. Files already in the catalog mean that some files have the same 'date taken' and file size in Kb.
Any suggestions. I'm using a mac and tried to rename files based on date taken. The mac can do that but it takes ages to go into each folder and run the renaming script there.
I also use a similar folder creation scheme (such a date naming is the default for the downloader). That way I never get a message about duplicates for the same file names.
However - I can't be the first or only person with this problem so I figure that some workaround must be known out there. Maybe the import action can recognize date taken or - well. Thank you very much in advance if you can help me out here.
You can alsways set the downloader to rename the imported files with a unique new name, there are many options in the 'advanced' dialog of the downloader. I don't know about Macs, but I don't thing there is a difference.

Server 2012 - Can't access external website from internal domain with same name. Tried everything.

Hello All.
I have read loads of forums and tried numerous fixes and configurations, but nothing seems to work and I am extremely frustrated at this point.
I have a client where I setup Server 2012 Standard with Exchange 2013. After reading best practice documentation for DNS naming and reasons not to use ".LOCAL" I opted to use ".com.na" in which case the Internal Domain Name and Internet
Website now has the same name.
When attempting to open the extarnal website eg. "www.company.com.na" from a client PC within the internal "company.com.na" Domain, I keep getting error "403 - Forbidden: Access is denied. You do not have permission to view this
directory or page using the credentials that you supplied."
I should also mention, the website is hosted by an ISP and not locally.
I added a "www" Host record in the Forward Lookup Zone, I have added the url and ip address to the Hosts file on a client pc (Windows 7) and even tried setting up Split-Brains DNS. Nothing seems to work.
Running a Tracert takes me to the correct public ip address of the website, but I keep getting this 403 error.
I am so sick and tired of this issue that iI am at the point of backing up the Exchange and re-rolling the entire server with the ".local" DNS domain name. I have a mirror setup in a VMWare environment and simply using "rendom" to rename
the domain seems to cause new issues with Exchange connectivity.
Any pointers and help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

I opted to use ".com.na" in which case the Internal Domain Name and Internet Website
now has the same name.
This ends up with a split-DNS stup for internal and external resolution which requires extra administration tasks and attention from the administrators.
When attempting to open the extarnal website eg. "www.company.com.na" from a client PC within the internal "company.com.na" Domain, I keep getting error "403 - Forbidden: Access is denied. You do not have permission to view

Running a Tracert takes me to the correct public ip address of the website, but I keep getting this 403 error.
This means that you are able to reach the Website but it is responding with the access denied error message. That should be checked on the middleware level so if this is IIS running then I would recommend asking them in IIS forum: http://forums.iis.net/
If this is a Website that is completely managed by your ISP then I would recommend checking with them.

I want to remove the promodesc and the sum(t.salesamt) and add Promotion1,Promotion2,Promotion3 as three new columns and their respective sum(t.salesamt) as their data value.
I am thinking about using three separate case statements to achieve this...
sum( case when promocode='p12' then t.salesamt end) Promotion 1
Please let me know if there is any other optimal way to achieve this.
Thank you!

Hi,
What you want is called a Pivot. Using CASE expressions (like you described) is one common way to do pivots. If you're using Oracle 11.1 (or higher) then you'd probably want to use the SELECT ... PIVOT feature instead. See the SQL Language manual
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11882_01/server.112/e26088/statements_10002.htm#sthref6809
and the forum FAQ
https://forums.oracle.com/message/9362005
for details and examples.
If you get stuck, post your best attempt, along with CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements for a little sample data, and the results you want from that data (if different from what you've already posted).
Always say which version of Oracle you're using (for example, 11.2.0.2.0).

Retrieving multiple values from one column in SELECT statement

Hi,
I have a slight dilemma in that I'm trying to pull down all the values from a column from a select statement that includes some JOINS in it.
If I run the query at the SQL Plus prompt, it pulls back all the values/rows.
When I run the select (and prepared ) statement in my JSP, it only pulls back one of the 4 values I'm trying to retrieve.
e.g.
at the DB level :
SELECT role_name, CC_ID FROM votetbl a
INNER JOIN APPROVERS b ON
a.BUSVP = b.BUSVP AND
a.BRANCH = b.BRANCH
WHERE CC_ID = 1688this will return:
ROLE_NAME CC_ID
ops 1688
ops 1688
comply 1688
legal 1688
comply 1688
When run in my JSP, like so:
String primID3a = request.getParameter("primID");
Statement stmtovoter = connection.createStatement(ResultSet.TYPE_SCROLL_SENSITIVE, ResultSet.CONCUR_READ_ONLY);
String prepvotSQL = "SELECT role_name, CC_ID FROM votetbl a INNER JOIN APPROVERS b ON a.BUSVP = b.BUSVP AND " +
"a.BRANCH = b.BRANCH WHERE CC_ID = ?";
PreparedStatement prepvotstmt = connection.prepareStatement(prepvotSQL);
prepvotstmt.setString(1, primID3a);
ResultSet rest3 = prepvotstmt.executeQuery();
rest3.next();
String votecat = rest3.getString(1);
out.println("Vote category: "+votecat);I only get ops returned.
Do I need to run an enumerator? Or reqest.getParameterValues or use a while statement around the results set?
Any feedback and direction here is welcomed!
Thanks!

Actually, I tried looping and still only get 1, but returned several times.
i.e.
PreparedStatement prepvotstmt = connection.prepareStatement(prepvotSQL);
prepvotstmt.setString(1, primID3a);
ResultSet rest3 = prepvotstmt.executeQuery();
rest3.next();
String votecat = rest3.getString(1);
while (rest3.next()) {
out.print("category roles "+votecat);
}then I get returned the following:
admincategory roles admincategory roles admincategory roles admincategory roles admincategory roles admincategory roles admincategory roles admincategory roles admincategory roles admincategory roles admincategory roles admin
like so.
Where as at the DB level I get
ROLE_NAME CC_ID
admin 1688
ops 1688
ops 1688
ops 1688
ops 1688
ops 1688
ops 1688
ops 1688
risk 1688
comply 1688
legal 1688
legal 1688
ops 1688
comply 1688
Maybe the while should go around the getString(1) designation? But I was thinking I'd tried that and gotten invalid cursor error
Something is definitely amiss, between the prepared statement in the servlet and the SELECT statement at the DB level.
I can totally hardcode the statement in the servlet or JSP and it will return one value potentially several times, but only one.
Other times, it will not return a value at all, even though one resides in the db.
Yet go to the DB/SQL Plus prompt and it returns perfectly. I can simply copy and paste the SELECT statement from the out.print line I made and it works like a champ in SQL Plus. Any ideas why the same exact thing cannot return the proper values within the servlet/JSP?
Yeeeeeeesh!!! : (

Get value from table column

Hi,
I am new to OAF, I am trying to get the value from the table in order to make validation. I have the following PG:

DetailsCell
DetailsTableLayout
ShortDescRow
ShortDescCell
ShortDesc
LongDescRow
LongDescCell

ect...
Can anyone help me please in how to go into the table --> row --> column to retrieve the value from a specific column?
If their is a document or example that can help I will appreciate it. Since I tried searching in devguide and didn't find any results.
Note: I am extending the controller and reached till the following code:
public void processFormRequest(OAPageContext oapageContext, OAWebBean webBean){
super.processFormRequest(oapageContext, webBean);
String event = oapageContext.getParameter("ShortDescRow");
OATableBean advtable = (OATableBean)webBean.findChildRecursive("SearchResultsTableRN");
OARowBean rowtbl = (OARowBean)advtable.findChildRecursive("DetailsCell");
String message = "test:"+event+"|"+advtable+"|"+"|"+"|"+"|";
throw new OAException(message, OAException.INFORMATION);
Thanks and Regards

Patrick,
My first advice would be go through OAF guide and do tutorial examples, for such basic details.
If ur talking about tablelayout region
u can use pageContext.getParameter(<Item id of UIX bean whose value u want>);
If you are talking about table
You can Iterate through the VO based on primary key ...on which the table is based, and retrive the corresponding Vo attribute value.

From two given tables, how do you fetch the values from two columns using values from one column(get values from col.A if col.A is not null and get values from col.B if col.A is null)?

From two given tables, how do you fetch the values from two columns using values from one column(get values from col.A if col.A is not null and get values from col.B if col.A is null)?

Hi,
Use NVL or COALESCE:
NVL (col_a, col_b)
Returns col_a if col_a is not NULL; otherwise, it returns col_b.
Col_a and col_b must have similar (if not identical) datatypes; for example, if col_a is a DATE, then col_b can be another DATE or it can be a TIMESTAMP, but it can't be a VARCHAR2.
For more about NVL and COALESCE, see the SQL Language manual: http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11882_01/server.112/e26088/functions119.htm#sthref1310
I hope this answers your question.
If not, post a little sample data (CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements, relevant columns only) for all tables involved, and also post the results you want from that data.
Explain, using specific examples, how you get those results from that data.

Get millisecond values from timestamp column in v$logmnr_contents

Hello
How do we get millisecond values from timestamp column in v$logmnr_contents.
I tried with following query.
select scn,To_Char(timestamp,'DD-MON-YYYY HH24:MI:SS:FF') from v$logmnr_contents WHERE OPERATION NOT IN('START') and username ='SCOTT' and sql_redo is not null and (seg_owner is null or seg_owner not in('SYS'));
it says ORA-01821: date format not recognized. I want to find the relation of scn with timestamp. In forums i found, scn is derived from timestamp value. I dont know its correct or not.
if i query with out FF in time format i get like

if scn is derived from timestamp with milliseconds, each scn should be different right?More help please

May be there's an easy way solving your problem, I did it like that:
CREATE TABLE quota_test (test VARCHAR2(50))
INSERT INTO quota_test
VALUES ('update "SCOTT"."NEWTAB1" set a="34" and b="45"')
SELECT test normal, REPLACE(SUBSTR(test,INSTR(test,'"',1),INSTR(test,'.',1)+2),'"','') changed
FROM quota_test
Result is :
NORMAL
update "SCOTT"."NEWTAB1" set a="34" and b="45"
CHANGED
SCOTT.NEWTAB1

Reading values from lookup columns through custom workflow in SharePoint 2013

We are able to read the values of text, number columns through custom workflow (via coding) in SharePoint 2013. However, we are not able to read values from lookup columns. So, request anyone to provide help on this.
Thanks & regards,
Aditya

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you want to read values from lookup columns through custom workflow in SharePoint 2013.
Since the workflow just doesn't get lookup fields, let's give it something static to work with instead. If we can capture the ID of the lookup field and store that as a static value in our list, the workflow can happily use that to look up our related.
For more information, you can refer to:
SharePoint 2013 Workflows and Lookup Columns

Automator and applescript to copy new files in a folder with same name as parent folder

I have an iMac with a pictures folder (Finder folder) containing several subfolders with pictures. As per now, all these subfolders are imported into an iPhoto library (and the structure of the Finder pictures folder is thus maintained: The iPhoto events are named the same as the Finder subfolder). I.e. I have not created any albums in iPhoto.
I have also set up a workflow, where new iPhone photos are automatically being synced to specified Finder folders within the iMac pictures folder. So what I want to do is to make a workflow to import potential new photos from week to week into the existing iPhoto structure. I know iPhoto has this Autoimport folder, so this one is unpacked and "mapped". So, this is what I´m hoping to do:
Automator (iCal - want to do this on a weekly basis):
- Get specified Finder items -- set to target folder = iMac pictures folder
- Get folder content (with subfolders)
- Filter Finder items
     - Items from the last 7 days (which then would be any new files created last week)
- Applescript/shell script loop(?)
     - Get folder name for each file´s (from previous step) parent folder
     - Create new folder with same name as the file´s parent folder (if not already existing) under the iPhoto Autoimport folder
     - Copy the given file into the folder from above
- Run iPhoto application (Automator task), which then should just auto import the new photos according to the Finder folder structure
Whith the workflow above, I aim to maintain the existing iPhoto structure, and just import new photos into the existing structure. Creating folder names under the Autoimport, similar as the existing Finder folder names / iPhoto events should make it possible to have the new files imported under the existing event, right?

Anyone?
I have now switched to Aperture (from iPhoto) due to Aperture´s capability to handle Finder folder structure, and due to the possibility of having the pictures within Aperture as referenced files to the pictures within the Finder folders (i.e. possibility to delete pictures from both library and Finder folder at the same time).
So I have a superior Finder folder called "Album". Within "Album" I have several subfolders (sub albums) containing pictures. The "Album" folder with subfolders are imported into Aperture as "Projects and albums", and the pictures are uploaded within the Aperture structure as referenced files. So for now the Aperture structure is more or less a direct mirror of the Finder folder structure, whereas "Album" is the project.
And this is my current workflow in Automator, but I´m searching help with my Applescript:
- Get specified Finder items (target folder = the superior Finder folder "Album")
- Get Folder content
- Filter Finder items (to look for potential new files to import into Aperture)
     - Kind is not folder
     - Date created last X days
The output files from this task enters an Applescript
on run {input, parameters}
       repeat with f in input (**Loop**)
               tell application "Finder"
                      set fileName to name of (f)
                      set parentFolder to name of container of (f)
                      tell application "Aperture"
                             tell library 1
                                    tell project "Album"
                                           if (exists album parentFolder) then
                                             ** I then would like to check if fileName already exist within the existing album**
                                             ** If not existing, I would like to import file f into the existing album as a referenced file**
                                           else if not (exists album parentFolder) then

How to delete one existing file before uploading a file with same name?

Hello everybody.
I am uploading a file to Tomcat server. But, the problem is:
i want to delete an existing file in the server, if i upload a fresh file with same name. In other words, "First check for the file with the same name in the server. If it exists, then delete existing file in the server and upload fresh one". If such file doesnot exist, then upload the file to server.
I have given deleteonExit()
but, for the first time when user is uploading, i want to check for the file with same name in the server.
i am pasting the code here. please help:

<%
String contentType = request.getContentType();
if ((contentType != null) && (contentType.indexOf("multipart/form-data") >= 0))
DataInputStream in = new DataInputStream(request.getInputStream());
int formDataLength = request.getContentLength();
byte dataBytes[] = new byte[formDataLength];
int byteRead = 0;
int totalBytesRead = 0;
while (totalBytesRead < formDataLength)
byteRead = in.read(dataBytes, totalBytesRead, formDataLength);
totalBytesRead += byteRead;
String contextRootPath = this.getServletContext().getRealPath("/");

Thank you MartinHilpert,
I have one more doubt,
I am uploading the file to one folder called "uploaded". Before uploading a fresh file, i want to delete all existing files in that folder. IS that possible ?? If yes, can you please tell me how to do that ??
Regards, Thanks for your time.

I have an error when creating new folders, it renames the folder below it to the same name (super - next folder - parent's next sibling...)

if I try to add a new folder to a sub folder, the program does add the new bookmark folder, but it also renames the next folder in line in the parent of the original "subfolder" to the exact same name...
maybe I just need to reload the mozilla, maybe I was hacked and that is what they changed...
I also have a similar problem with microsoft explorer, every time I try to add a new folder it gives it a starting wierd name besides "New Folder"
I have an error when creating new folders, it renames the folder below it to the same name (super - next folder - parent's next sibling...)

Do you have that problem when running in the Firefox SafeMode? <br />

Find duplication values from multiple columns in a big table

Hi All,
I am working on a 11gR2 database in linux. i want to display record that have duplicate values in 2 columns.
1. Table Structure :-
CREATE TABLE A
ID NUMBER(10),
F_NAME VARCHAR2(100 BYTE),
L_NAME VARCHAR2(100 BYTE)
2. Sample Data:-
Insert into A
(ID, F_NAME, L_NAME) Values (1,'TONY' ,'SUMIT');
Insert into A
(ID, F_NAME, L_NAME) Values (2,'SUMIT' ,'KEITH');
Insert into A
(ID, F_NAME, L_NAME) Values (3,'NORA','SMITH');
Insert into A
(ID, F_NAME, L_NAME) Values (4,'APRIL','TONY');
Insert into A
(ID, F_NAME, L_NAME) Values (5,'ROSS','TAM');
ID F_NAME L_NAME
1 TONY SUMIT
2 SUMIT KEITH
3 NORA SMITH
4 APRIL TONY
5 ROSS TAM
4. My requirement is i need display IDs that it's F_NAME or L_NAME has duplication in F_NAME or L_NAME columns.
The result should be
ID
1 reason: F_NAME (TONY) equals to L_NAME of record 4, L_NAME (SUMIT) equals to F_NAME of record 2
2 reason: F_NAME (SUMIT) equals to L_NAME of record 1
4 reason: L_NAME (TONY) equals to F_NAME of record 1
record 3, 5 aren't in the result because there is no duplication in F_NAME or L_NAME columns for NORA,SMITH, ROSS, TAM
The table contains 10 million records, i really need to consider the performance.
kindly suggest me the solution

Note: Forum members please suggest better approach to this -- below.. convert into SQL :)
I know I will be opposed by many people in this forum for posting such in-efficient solution.
But trying to learn along with you.. its an interesting problem which must deal with all rows vs all rows to get all combinations.
But I am still thinking how to write it in SQL, probably will learn from this post after we receive some good SQL solution for the code what I am currently doing now.
step 1: created a table B similar to table A and added a column reason
CREATE TABLE B
ID      NUMBER(10),
F_NAME VARCHAR2(100 BYTE),
L_NAME VARCHAR2(100 BYTE),
REASON VARCHAR2(1000 BYTE) --- ADDED THIS

Direction Needed: Storing calculated values from datagrid column in order to call values into graph

Hi all,
I am new to Flex/Flash Builder, actionscript, and mxml, so please be kind.
I have developed a small program that has a component that displays a datagrid fed with information out of a mysql db via a php data services connection. Within that same component (page), I have a graph that charts the dates via a plot chart. I am interested in adding a line series to the graph, but the data I want to use is a calculated field in the datagrid which I used a custom lable function to derive and display. Can someone steer me to the correct method to store such values and how to call them into a chart?
Some addition information
Custom label function:
/* Custom label function for the Delta1 column. Calculates the number of days between the planting date and 10% flower. */
                              private function calculateTo1stFlower(item:Object, column:GridColumn):String {
                                        var tempDate1:Date = new Date(item.dflower10 - item.dplanting);
                                        return Math.round((tempDate1.time / MS_PER_DAY) + 1).toString();
/* Number of milliseconds in a day. (1000 milliseconds per second * 60 seconds per minute * 60 minutes per hour * 24 hours per day) */
                              private const MS_PER_DAY:uint = 1000 * 60 * 60 * 24;
Within my spark datagrid
<s:GridColumn width="30" headerText="Δ1" labelFunction="calculateTo1stFlower" ></s:GridColumn>
I assume I need to store the array of values for this column and then chart the saved values as the xField within the LineSeries. Should I use a class based model?
The following link seemed like it may be an appropriate path; I am not sure though.

Thanks for trying to post DDL, but you have no idea how to do a data model. You do not know that tables have to have keys, what ISO-11179 is, etc.
You have a table that is supposed to model companies. Your singular names says that there is only one company! There is no company identifier (the industry standard is the DUNS). A customer is not a company. We do not use numeric data types for identifiers;
do you do math on them? NO! The attribute property comes after the attribute name (you never heard of ISO-11179).
Think about how silly VARCHAR(1) is.
CREATE TABLE Companies
(company_duns CHAR(9) NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY,
company_name VARCHAR(30)NOIT NULL,
margin_oil INTEGER NOT NULL,
margin_hangar INTEGER NOT NULL,
margin_cleaning INTEGER NOT NULL);
INSERT INTO Companies
VALUES (1, 'AviatKorea', 100, 125, 200),
(2, 'AXHollande', 50, 40, 30),
(3, 'BFXNorway', 60, 80, 600),
(4, 'EEEFrance', 10, 25, 60);
CREATE TABLE Company_Tariffs
(company_duns INTEGER NOT NULL
REFERENCES Companies(company_duns),
tariff_type CHAR(1) NOT NULL
CHECK (tariff_type IN ('A','B','C','D'),
PRIMARY KEY (company_duns, tariff_type));
INSERT INTO Company_Tariffs values (1, 'A'), (2, 'C'), (2, 'D'), (3, 'A'), (4, 'A'), (4, 'C'), (4, 'D')
SELECT * -- do not use * in production code
FROM Companies AS C,
Company_Tariffs AS T
WHERE C.company_duns = T.company_duns;
