Obsolete help for newb

I have new to RMAN, about 30 minutes new. I have a system that is using RMAN is some fashion (still trying to fully determine), but right now I am getting errors because a file system is full:
Errors in file e:\oracle\product\10.1.0\admin\wqp2\bdump\wqp2_arc1_2992.trc:
ORA-19504: failed to create file "C:\ORACLE_ARCHIVELOGS\WQP2\ARC13494_0545153516.001"
ORA-27044: unable to write the header block of file
OSD-04008: WriteFile() failure, unable to write to file
O/S-Error: (OS 112) There is not enough space on the disk.
I found a script that is supposed to run "delete obsolete" every night, but according to listing in Enterprise Manager all of the files listed under "image copies" are not listed as obsolete and are "available".
How do I make these files obsolete and do the subsequent deletion.
I did an RMAN> show all; to learn that the retention policy is set to a 10 day window. Almost all of the 600+ files listed are older than that.
Thanks for any pointers.

Hello,
First of all cross check the filesystem looks like one of the filesystem was full. Because of that reason your backup fails. Secondly you need to cross check whether the obosolete backups backups are delete on regular basis or not.
Try crosscheck backup and crosscheck archivelog and check for backups then check for obsolete backups and clean them up.

  • Trying to create install script in PackageMaker...help for newbie

    Hello,
    I am trying to deploy a solution as an install package. Currently, there are 3 items inside the folder that needs to be installed in the /Applications folder. This in itself is easy. However, when I create upgrades to the solution, I want to carry over one file from the previous installation to the new one. Is there a way to have this upgraded version install and instead of removing all of the earlier files, can it install the new files (which are 3) and carry over 1 of the other files.
    I hope this makes sense. Thanks for any input or sample scripts that I may be able to modify to accomplish this.
    Thanks,
    Stephen

    Thanks for your time!
    Perhaps it would help if I explain a little further my situation and what I am trying to accomplish.
    I have a database runtime solution that I want to distribute. I have all of the necessary files in a single folder, let's say, named "Progam 1.2". Since whenever I upgrade this version, I need to have the old data file from the previous version on hand to import into the new file, I create a new folder called "Program 1.3" So after the installation, I would have both folders. The user then opens the new version and the program then will import the previous versions data. At that point the user may delete the previous version folder entirely.
    My question is how can accomplish an install so that the new version will not overwrite the previous folder "Program 1.2" when installing the upgrade to "Program 1.3" since I need the data file for updating the data. Ideally, I would love to have the new folder installed and the single data file in the previous version folder be copied to the new versions folder and be renamed to "Previous Data" so that the new version can update the data.
    Again, I am a complete newbie in this arena and have simply been doing DMG files where the user copies the new version to the applications folder. But if there was a way to automate this installation more, I would like to do that.
    Thanks again for your help!

  • Help for Newbie setting up business

    Hi!  Total newbie here. Any help would be appreciated.
    I use a Mac.  I'm developing a web internet business.  I'm planning to install and use Adobe Scene 7 for all it's features. In reading about Adobe Scene 7 it says it is 'hosted'.  I am planning on using Earth Girl Hosting for my business and I was hoping that I could use Adobe Scene 7 while using Earth Girl hosting.  Does anyone understand if I can do this and is it problematic if I do? 
    What exactly do they mean by Adobe Scene 7 is hosted?  Does that mean they host your whole web site?
    Later on I was planning to take a course at SMU that uses and teaches Dreamweaver.  If I have Adobe Scene 7 installed and using it in my business, will I be able to use Dreamweaver too........will they interface okay?
    Thanks so much for any help......... break it down for me on the newbie level if possible!

    What exactly do they mean by Adobe Scene 7 is hosted?  Does that mean they host your whole web site?
    This means that the program that is used to develop the web site is operated from an Adobe server, the same server that will host the site.
    Later on I was planning to take a course at SMU that uses and teaches Dreamweaver.  If I have Adobe Scene 7 installed and using it in my business, will I be able to use Dreamweaver too........will they interface okay?
    No, you will not be able to just use Dreamweaver to continue maintenance of the web site that is created by Scene 7. There may be small parts that are visible in the browser that you can use in Dreamweaver, but the dynamic parts will not be available.
    If time is of essence, the low learning curve of Scene 7 will probably help you get on line quickly. After that, either maintain it using the same tools or forget about it and start producing real web sites with Dreamweaver or other compatible web authoring software.

  • Help for Newbie?

    Hello,
    I am a beginner to FCE. I have made a handful of DVDs from imovie but wanted to move up a notch and learn something new. I video for the coaches at our local high school and usually make a highlight video. Also this year I have a senior and have been asked to do the video of rememberance for the senior class. I look forward to this but feel so unsure of myself. Would anyone be interested in helping me learn to run the program and give me some new ideas for these projects? The football video I usually get done by basketball season and the senior video needs to be done by May. This may involve some phone conversations or web cam.
    Thanks in advance.

    The best idea and advice I have for you is Tom's book.

  • Javascript help for newbie

    Hi,
    I have a 18x12 booklet form PDF (each PDF page consists of 2 9x12 images) that I need to split into single 9x12 pages.
    Found 2 scripts on the net to split pages in Acrobat and the other one to reorder the split pages. (after splitting the pages one ends up with page 1, page 24, page 2, page 23, etc.) Need to reorder the pages and found the Reorder script below.
    But it doesn't work in Acrobat 9 - I'm getting an illegal character error in line 20. (seems to be this line? nStart: i * 4 – 3).
    I don't even get a menu item called Reorder Pages under Documents.
    Help?
    Script:
    ReorderDocument = app.trustedFunction(function()
    // create a new document
    app.beginPriv();
    var newDoc = app.newDoc();
    app.endPriv();
    // reorder pages in booklet order into new document in sequential order
    var i = 0;
    var n = this.numPages;
    for (var i = 1; i <= n / 4; i++)
    newDoc.insertPages( {
    nPage: newDoc.numPages-1,
    cPath: this.path,
    nStart: i * 4 – 3,
    nEnd: i * 4 – 2
    newDoc.insertPages( {
    nPage: newDoc.numPages – 1,
    cPath: this.path,
    nStart: n – 1
    for (var i = 1; i 1)
    newDoc.deletePages(0); // this gets rid of the page that was created with the newDoc call.
    // add the menu item
    app.addMenuItem({
    cName: "reorderPagesJS", // this is the internal name used for this menu item
    cUser: "Reorder Pages", // this is the label that is used to display the menu item

    cExec: "ReorderDocument()", // this is the JavaScript code to execute when this menu item is selected
    cEnable: "event.rc = (event.target != null);", // when should this menu item be active?
    nPos: 1

    Hold on - just found another webpage with different code. This one seems to work now. Posting it here in case somebody else needs it: this script is to reshuffle pages are having split a booklet form PDF into separate pages:

  • Help for Newbie -- Premiere Elements 10

    I'm completely new to video editing.  I know this is supposed to be the easiest software, but I'm getting nowhere.  Part of the problem is that the software doesn't seem to come with a manual -- in paper or pdf.  The help button ships me out to various tutorials, etc., but they're all for version 11.  I tried following the basic tutorial for organizing videos, and the buttons they wanted me to click just didn't exist. (such as for creating an "album."     Maybe it's because of the different version or maybe it's because I'm supposed to already know how to set up the software so that I see the same things they're showing me in the tutorials. 
    Is there any book that truly takes you through everything from othe very beginning?   Better yet, is there any service that would actually let me talk things out with an expert and perhaps let me log onto my computer so he can see what's on my screen and explain why it doesn't look like what's in the tutorial? 
    Thanks.

  • ThinReg Help for Newb

    I'm sorry to be asking this since I'm sure this has been asked in the past, but I'm new to the thinapp world and need to get some clear direction on what I need to do to make the VM application successful. I have built my Package and have it ready, and I can open and run the file as a user if I run the package from the users home directory. I would like to place all Thin applications on a network share for the users to be able to access it. When I do this and create a link and drop it on the users desktop, it comes up with a Error "The system cannot find the file specified". I read about an application ThinReg that I need to run in order to get this to work, but have not been able to make any head way. I ran the Thinreg on the package and the screen blinks and comes back but nothing happens. I'm sorry to reach out, but I'm having a hard time with this an running out of time. The Application that I packaged is Adobe 9 and will need to some how get this to work from a Network share and some how with when called from IE on the local system. Any help would be great.
    Thank you,
    Wess

    You have a lot of issues here, but this little piece might help you. Thinreg is ran to register the thinapp on the machine where it will be run. I found a blog post with a little thinreg info. You can also get more info by running the thinreg.exe with the /? switch.

    I'm new the thinapp too. Maybe we can help each other figure out this product.

  • JavaScript help for newb

    I have used JavaScript before, but not within Apex. I have several calculated fields that I need to be able to update after user input (I think the onChange() function will work just fine). I have browsed through over a dozen threads on using JavaScript, but I seem to be missing the one little piece that will make this all click.
    All I need to do is some very basic form manipulation, ie field1 x field2 = field 3, etc. Can someone please point me at a very simple example that shows:
    a) the JavaScript function code for referencing field values
    b) where to put said code (I think it is HTML Header in Page Definition, but confirmation or correction would be appreciated.)
    c) how to reference said code on a field. (where to put it in field definition)
    In case you want to see what I am doing, I have posted the form :
    http://apex.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=21392:10:426232455000914
    (use the Dashboard tab)

    Hi,
    You could do something like:
    function calc()
    var field1 = document.getElementById("field1");
    var field1value = parseFloat(field1.value);
    if (isNaN(field1value)) {field1value = 0);
    var field2 = document.getElementById("field2");
    var field2value = parseFloat(field2.value);
    if (isNaN(field2value)) {field2value = 0);
    var field3 = dcoument.getElementById("field3");
    field3.value = (Math.round(field1value * field2value*100)/100);
    This will retrieve the text values for field1 and field2, convert them to floats (if the values cannot be converted, the if tests will set them to zero), multiply the two values, round them to 2 decimal places and put the result into field3.
    Put this in a script tag anywhere on the page. I tend to put javascript functions in a separate region either in the "After Header" or "Before Footer" region position.
    I would then use the onblur event on field1 and field2 to call the script. You can add this in the "HTML Form Element Attributes" setting for the field definitions:
    onblur="calc()"
    I couldn't get into your OTN site as you didn't specify the username/password to use!

  • HELP ME GUYS WITH CREDIT ADVICE FOR NEWBIE

    Thanks for reading!  I just want to ask you guys, I'm looking to help my girlfriend open her first credit card.  I have plenty with all of the creditors and I began with Capital One.  I believe at that time I had my student loan reporting though.  She has nothing on her report aside from a few inquiries (AT&T and a few store card HPs).  She said some of her friends have been approved for a low CL Discover It card.  I don't know if there is a Discover It offering for newbies or if they must just have something on their report.  I recommended she get a Cap1 card.  That way she can have her son on the card image and I know that since I've heard they triple pull they're pretty leanient.  What do you guys think?  Any advice on what secured card she should get should it come to that?  Thanks very much again!

    Do NOT cosign for your girlfriend. If you break up, your finances could get messy.
    Have her apply for an It card, they love clean, thin files. If that fails, go for a secured Boa card or Cap One credit steps. Maybe make her an AU on an Amex of yours to build history (you can artificially set a limit to limit your liability).Amex is the one I called first about AU and then Citi.  I almost did it with Citi because surprisingly the rep for Amex wasn't very helpful.  Should I (she) even be concerned with inquiries when she literally has no score anyway?  Do they really impact a score that doesn't exist or do they hurt a score once one becomes available.  The whole thing is I was just concerned that we'd apply for stuff and she woulnd't get approved and that she'd have another senseless inquiry.  As I said, she already has several.

  • Need help for a newbie!!!

    Hi,
    I have set up a website on a new Redhat7.3 box with Apache2.0 and integrated Tomcat4.0 to handle the servlets used in the site. Yesterday I finished installing Oracle 9i Enterprise edition on the machine (I need a simple single table database that I will be able to access through the servlets). I am a bit overwhelmed by all the info out there that I really don't know where to start, so my questions are:
    1: "What do I do to make the database?"
    2: "How do I access the database, should I use the Thin or the OCI driver?"
    3: "Are there any examples around to do the above?"
    In general I mainly need to know where to go from here and if there may be any resources around to help a newbie like myself.
    Thanks again,

  • Search help for input fields in a screen

    Hi,

    how to set search help property for the I/O fields in screen in se80?
    1. do we want to add any property for search help in the property window?
    2.do we want to create a MODULE PROCESS ON VALUE REQUEST ?

    can i create a single search for all these fields and use that for all the I/O fields ?
    elementary search help or collective search help?
    thanks & regards in advance,
    vsnl.

    Hi,
    Input Help on the Screen
    Within the Screen Painter, you can define two types of input help:
    1. The FIELD statement with one of the additions VALUES or SELECT.
    2. Linking a search help directly to a screen field.
    If you link a search help directly to a screen field, it overrides the additions of the FIELD
    statement. However, the input check [Page 581] functions of the FIELD statement remain
    unaffected.
    Input Help in Flow Logic
    The following input help methods are obsolete and should not be used. They are still supported
    for compatibility reasons.
    In the screen flow logic, you can specify a value list for a screen field <f> as follows:
    FIELD <f> VALUES (<val1>, <val2>,...).
    The value list contains a series of single values <vali>. The NOT and BETWEEN additions for the
    input check [Page 581] are not appropriate for input help.
    You can also create a value list by accessing a database table as follows:
    FIELD <f> SELECT *
    FROM <dbtab>
    WHERE <k1> = <f1> AND <k2> = <f2> AND...
    In the WHERE condition, the fields of the primary key <ki> of the database table <dbtab> are
    checked against the screen fields <fi>. The WHENEVER addition, used with input checks [Page
    581], is not necessary for input help.
    If you have used a ABAP Dictionary reference for field <f>, the selection and the hit list formatting
    may be affected by any check table attached to the field.
    Attaching a Search Help
    Search helps from the ABAP Dictionary can be attached to a screen field [Ext.]. To do this, enter
    the name of the search help in the corresponding field in the attributes of the screen field in the
    Screen Painter. This assigns the first parameter of the search help to the screen field. It is only
    possible to place a value from the hit list onto the screen.

    Airline
    Flight number
    Screen field with search help
    Input help in the flow logic
    The input fields have been adopted from the program fields CARRIER and
    CONNECTION. The function code of the pushbutton is CANCEL, with function type
    E. The search help DEMO_F4_DE with the search help parameter CARRID is
    assigned to the screen field CARRIER. The search help uses the database table
    SCARR.
    The screen flow logic is as follows:
    PROCESS BEFORE OUTPUT.
    PROCESS AFTER INPUT.
    MODULE CANCEL AT EXIT-COMMAND.
    FIELD CARRIER VALUES ('AA', 'LH').
    FIELD CONNECTION SELECT *
    FROM SPFLI
    WHERE CARRID = CARRIER
    AND CONNID = CONNECTION.
    When the user chooses the input help for the individual fields, the following input
    help is displayed:
      For the Airline field, the search help displays the names of the airlines and places the airline
    code in the input field for the chosen line. If the airline code is not one of those listed in the
    VALUES list of the screen flow logic, the input check triggers an error message in the PAI
    event. So the search help overrides the VALUES addition for the input help, but not for the
    input checks. This is therefore not an appropriate place to use the VALUE addition.
      For the Flight number field, the flow logic displays the selected entries from the database
    table SPFLI and places the selected line in the input field.

  • Custom search help for a custom field in SRM 7

    EDIT: I'm gonna clarify on this thread since my first post wasn't explicative enough... thanks for the patience
    Hi all gurus,
    the question is about a search help in SRM7 but since the task is about abap development, I guess this is the right section to ask for.
    Shortly; every purchase doc in our SRM7 has a custom header table which contains data which are retrieved from the connected backends. In this custom table, the user has the opportunity to add manually a line, and for a specific input field in table, we have to define a search help which should retrieve the appropriate possible values w.r.t. the "target" backend for the document.
    A bit of technical data: say the field is called ZZ_R3_ROLE; it's included in a custom structure ZR7_HEADER_CST_GEN which is itself an append for BBP_PDHCF.
    I defined a Search Help for that field and the corresponding exit FM to manage our task.
    Unfortunately, to retrieve the possible values for the specific backend I need some informations like:
    - the backend on which the document will be distributed;
    - the process type of the document.
    This means that my search help should take into account additional informations that comes from the document I'm processing; I don't know what's the "clean" solution to do this.
    I've seen on an old system (a SAP SRM 3.0) a workaround based on IMPORT/EXPORT ... TO MEMORY ID has been used. Actually, I'd like to find a more elegant solution, if any.
    So... as you can see, I'm absolutely a newbie on the argument, but since I can trigger the search help only from a purchase document (PO, contract) process, I should need at least the GUID of the document to retrieve, for example, what's the target backend for that document in order to provide proper values.
    Any hint/suggestion and in particular, a sketch of code as example is welcome.

    Hi,
    into your modify view,
    extract data you need in your search help in an itab (do it into a class do not perform select directly into modify view) and then bind it as value help to your WD element.

  • Help for a new MAC user

    I just made the move from PC to MAC. I have and need to use my Office 2003. Can someone help a newbie to install it on my new Imac?

    If that Office 2003 is for Windows, it will not install on OS X. The only way to get a Windows application on a Mac is using something like Boot Camp (Parallels, VMWare Fusion) and then a Windows system as well.
