ORA-22285 Loadclobfromfile and definer rights

I've create a directory D in schema A.
Schema A has read permissions on the directory.
Created a stored procedure X that reads a clob from a file in this directory.
Running the procedure as user A works ok.
Granted execute rights on procedure X to user B
When user B tries to run procedure X I get error: ORA-22285: non-existent directory or file for FILEOPEN operation.
It turns out I have to grant B read permission on the directory D.
I don't understand why this is necessary. Procedure X runs with definer rights by default.
Maybe someone can shed a bit of light on this ?

// ACEs where r u ?!Oh don't Re: Needs another simple fix ! (Its been over 24hrs, nobody tried! Strange) Alex, I thought you were one of the good guys.
Anyway, I expect a lot of the Aces are in the air right now, heading for 'Frisco.
To your question:
which one of the two above is the best one?It depends. Is John a developer or a user? If John is a developer then the DBA should grant him privileges explicitly. If John is a user then it is appropriate to use a role for his privileges and thus use the AUTHID CURRENT_USER approach.
Note, I think this example is flawed because I would not expect a user to have a procedure which dynamically creates a table. Certainly I wouldn't expect John as a user to be creating procedures or to know about invoker rights. But the same model applies if the privilege is say SELECT access on another user's tables.
the question that emerges is why do we have roles anyway if we can't truly rely on them (?)In my view ROLES are intended for managing users rather than developers. Generally I think this means granting table privileges to roles but not system privileges (although CREATE SESSION is an obvious exception). We should not use Roles for managing the privileges of developers, or for application owner accounts come to that. If the account has a schema it probably should have individually granted system privileges; as with most generalisations there is a grey area.

Definer and Invoker Rights Privileges

Hi all,
I am little confused with Definer and Invoker Rights Privileges. As per my understanding when you have the definer rights on a procedure then you don't explicitly required any privileges on the object under that procedure.
Can anyone pls explain me about this or provide me the useful link.
Thanks in advance.

when you have the definer rights on a procedure then you don't explicitly required
any privileges on the object under that procedure.Exactly. Definer rights means that you run the program as though you were the program owner.
It's explained in more detail in the PL/SQL Developers' Guide.

Definer and Invoker Rights

If a package is defined as AUTHID CURRENT_USER but inside one of the procedures in the package it calls another package that is defined with DEFINER rights (default) does that called package execute with the invoker rights or definer rights?
Im trying to grant a user alter user privs then revoke it and I keep getting insuffcient priv error.
I think the called packaged is invoked with invoker rights not definer.

The owner of the called package has to have alter user privs WITH admin option.
It works now.

Strange behaviuor (bug?) with view (ora-918 column ambiguously defined)

Hallo everybody,
the following code works as expected;
select substr(fire_id,-4,2) as ct,zone_id, count(fire_id),sum(a_total) from
(select *
from fire right join fire_zone using (fire_id)
where definition_id = 1
and checked = 1
and substr(fire_id,-4,2) in (21,23)
and fire_id between 190400000000 and 200900000000)
group by substr(fire_id,-4,2),zone_id
order by ct, zone_id
but when a define a view for the subquery:
create or replace view tempfire as
select *
from fire right join fire_zone using (fire_id)
where definition_id = 1
and checked = 1
and substr(fire_id,-4,2) in (21,23)
and fire_id between 190400000000 and 200900000000
and then run
select substr(fire_id,-4,2) as ct,zone_id, count(fire_id),sum(a_total) from tempfire
group by substr(fire_id,-4,2),zone_id
order by ct, zone_id
I got the error ora-00918 column ambiguously defined for zone_id.
Is this a bug or is there a reason?
Thank you in advance,
Cheers,
Boris

How to get rid of ROWID in Join query -- ORA-00918: column ambiguously defined

Hi, All
the source of my data block is from two tables Emp and Title. My select statements is:
select a.name, b.title, b.start_date, b.end_date from Emp a, Title b where a.id = b.emp_id
But at run time, I got "ORA-00918: column ambiguously defined"
the wrapped statement becomes:
SELECT ROWID,a.name, b.title, b.start_date, b.end_date from Emp a, Title b where a.id = b.emp_id
I run the query in SQL*PLUS, found out it was ROWID caused problem.
Can anybody tell me how to get rid of ROWID? or I missed something in datablock defination?
Thanks in adance.
Deborah

I guess you are using oracle 7.x. In Oracle 8 and onwards, database lets you select ROWID from the views based on multiple views as long as view definition does not contain any aggregated functions or DISTINCT in it. Now coming back to forms ..Forms runtime engine uses ROWID to identify rows uniquely unless specified otherwise. If you are using forms 4.5/5.0 against Oracle 7.x , then change these properties and you should be able to run the form.
BLOCK PROPERTY
Key Mode : can be either updateable OR Non-updateable
( Certainly not 'Unique' .. That forces forms runtime engine to use ROWID to identify unique rows. )
ITEM PROPERTY
Identify one of the block items as unique. And then set the following property
Primary Key : True.
This should take care of rowid problem.

Murali.

thanks.

- the name of the directory is correct.
- how can I check, that the user can use the directory?
- in this logfile you can see that, the file name will replace correctly:

Hi Ed,
In the definer rights case, as long as ernie can execute the procedure owned by bert, he'll be able to successfully execute it, cause definer rights mean that the object (owned/defined by bert) executes w/ bert's rights, and the only object access in the procedure is on bert's objects. So, no problem there.
In the invoker rights case, it works cause even though the proc is owned by bert, ernie is executing and so, rights have to be granted to ernie, and they are.
I don't see a problem in either case. Am I missing something?
My guess is, what you're overlooking is the fact that, in the case of invokers rights, it's ok for necessary privileges to be granted via a role. The restriction against roles, is only on a definers rights procedure.

Ok, as I read the explanation in the linked reference, that makes sense. So now I'm having a hard time imagining the situation where inheriting privs via a role comes into play as a problem in dealing with pl/sql blocks.

Use table aliases and prefix all column names by their aliases when more than one table is involved in a query. This reduces parse time AND prevents future syntax errors if someone adds a column to one of the tables with the same name as a column in another table.

place TY.DESCRIPTION TY_DESCRIPTION and

Still ORA-19007: Schema and element do not match Error

Hi all,
I'm new to XML and dealing with lots of information but I'm stuck with this error ORA-19007: Schema and element do not match. Read some forums and tried some possibitlities but none has solved this issue. I think this is related with some malformed headers definitions but I'm not sure, so any help will be much appreciated.
Here's what I've done so far:
This is the xml file - emp.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

1) Created folders
declare

begin
ignore := dbms_xdb.createFolder('/public/Emp');
ignore := dbms_xdb.createFolder('/public/Emp/xsd');
ignore := dbms_xdb.createFolder('/public/Emp/xml');
commit ;
end;
2) Copied emp.xsd to /public/Emp/xsd in Win Explorer (via WebDAV connection)
3) Registered the schema
begin
dbms_xmlschema.registerURI(schemaURL => 'http://xmlns.oracle.com/xdb/emp.xsd'
,schemaDocURI => '/public/Emp/xsd/emp.xsd'
,genTables => true
commit ;
end ;
4) Copied the xml file to /public/Emp/xml. At this point I was expecting that the xml file was automatically uploaded to corresponding tables based on is content but it didn't happen. I didn't got any error also. When I issue:
Select count(*) from employees
...or
select y."name", y."team" from employees x, table(x.xmldata."employee") y
...got 0 rows returned
5) So then created the table:
create table emp_tab(
id number,
emp sys.XMLType
xmltype column emp
XMLSCHEMA "http://xmlns.oracle.com/xdb/emp.xsd"
element "employee";
6) And tried to insert one record based on the emp.xml:
insert into emp_tab values (1,
xmltype('<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<employees xmlns:xdb="http://xmlns.oracle.com/xdb" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="http://xmlns.oracle.com/xdb/emp.xsd">

          <name>Nelson Branco</name>
          <comment>No Comments</comment>
     </employee>
</employees>'));
...and that when I get ORA-19007: Schema and element do not match.
Any help on this will be appreciated. Thx.

Where are my photos on the PC after sync with an iphone? I know nobody out there is stupid enough to suggest to me that they are encrypted and inaccessible, right? Seriously? How stupid would Apple corporation have to be to do something like this?

Where are my photos on the PC after synching with an iphone? I know nobody out there is stupid enough to suggest to me that they are encrypted and inaccessible, right? Seriously? How stupid would Apple corporation have to be to do something like this? That would be just as foolish as making my music unusable on the PC...
Okay, Let's assume that Apple is indeed THAT foolish.......How does one get the photos from the phone to the PC and still use them?

The photos are still on your phone, and if enabled in your Photo Stream. They are not automatically transferred to your computer when syncing.
See iOS: Import personal photos and videos from iOS devices to your computer and iCloud: My Photo Stream FAQ

What is the difference between variable and Define

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN
these different declarations when it is done using the keyword "variable" and "define"
and both of these are done OUTSIDE "DECLARE"
VARIABLE g_monthly_sal NUMBER
DEFINE p_annual_sal =5000
-- I understand that p_annual_sal will be taken as a CHAR.
-- ALSO IF DEFINE variable acts as macro variable, SO is it necessary to give it some value whenever we define it.
if not what value would be substituted for it?
OR does that mean whenever we want to specify data type for a bind varible we should use VARIABLE and
when we do not want to specify type we use DEFINE?
THANK YOU

Both are SQL*plus commands. In a real programming environment you will not use such constructs (except a few rare scripting cases).
The difference is how the construct is later used. DEFINE is more like a copy&paste string. Whereever the name of this substitution variable is found it will be pasted into the sql*plus session.
VARIABLE creates a real variable. You can change the value and if follwos the usual principles of variables (including binding).
Example can be found the docs:
from the docs
Where and How to Use Substitution Variables
You can use substitution variables anywhere in SQL and SQL*Plus commands, except as the first word entered. When SQL*Plus encounters an undefined substitution variable in a command, SQL*Plus prompts you for the value.
You can enter any string at the prompt, even one containing blanks and punctuation. If the SQL command containing the reference should have quote marks around the variable and you do not include them there, the user must include the quotes when prompted.
SQL*Plus reads your response from the keyboard, even if you have redirected terminal input or output to a file. If a terminal is not available (if, for example, you run the script in batch mode), SQL*Plus uses the redirected file.
After you enter a value at the prompt, SQL*Plus lists the line containing the substitution variable twice: once before substituting the value you enter and once after substitution. You can suppress this listing by setting the SET command variable VERIFY to OFF.
Using Bind Variables
Bind variables are variables you create in SQL*Plus and then reference in PL/SQL or SQL. If you create a bind variable in SQL*Plus, you can use the variable as you would a declared variable in your PL/SQL subprogram and then access the variable from SQL*Plus. You can use bind variables for such things as storing return codes or debugging your PL/SQL subprograms.
Because bind variables are recognized by SQL*Plus, you can display their values in SQL*Plus or reference them in PL/SQL subprograms that you run in SQL*Plus.
Creating Bind Variables
You create bind variables in SQL*Plus with the VARIABLE command. For example
VARIABLE ret_val NUMBER
This command creates a bind variable named ret_val with a datatype of NUMBER. See the VARIABLE command for more information. (To list all bind variables created in a session, type VARIABLE without any arguments.)
Referencing Bind Variables
You reference bind variables in PL/SQL by typing a colon (:) followed immediately by the name of the variable. For example
:ret_val := 1;
To change this bind variable in SQL*Plus, you must enter a PL/SQL block. For example:
BEGIN
:ret_val:=4;
END;

I suggest you upgrade your Oracle installation to 9.2.0.7 or 9.2.0.8 and then try again.

Bought iphone 5C on December. No additional warranty purchased. The phone keeps not working and the top and bottom right corners look melted. Can I send it in amd get a new one on manufacturer warranty? Or what are my options? Thanks

I Purchased iphone 5C on December 2014. However now it's very difficult to have it working. The screen is constantly not working and the right side bottom&top does looks like its melted? the cover I mean , which maked the phone slide out of its cover. I did not purchase anny additional warranty or insurance so I don't know what to do with it? Can i send it in and they can send me a new one under the manufacturer warranty or what do i do with it?
I Have alwa had an iphone but this 5c is making me never have one again. Thanks in advance

Each iPhone comes with a one-year warranty. You said it looks melted? That's going to be difficult to prove that you did not damage it, and it happened on its own. That is the only way it would be covered.

Error Message on the printer - Remove and check right cartridge

How to fix error message: "remove and check right cartridge" which you have done numerous times, plus cleaned cartridge nozzle. Also, I have turned off power to printer, but nothing changed. Help for HP Officejet 7210 All-in-One needed.
This question was solved.
View Solution.

Funny that multiple people have this problem appear just after 9/1 on multiple printers/all-in-ones. I wonder how many people have this problem and don't report it here. Mine is on a 2710a all-in-one in excellent condition except for this cartridge problem.
My contacts are not suddenly damaged and it is a relatively new well within the expiration date genuine HP cartridge that we have had for more than a few months. It has not been out of the printer nor has the printer been moved. It sits in a clean room with very little temperature variation from 72 degrees. All printers should be so lucky.
This is not the first time nor the first printer I've had cartridge problems with HP printers. This is my third one and I'm done with HP printers. I love all other aspects of the printer but this one is infuriating enough to sour me for good.
