If this is something for end-users, you can code your own lov in the column attributes for that column and then all the records will be displayed.

Help: need to extract an application from oracle/apex directory

Hi, all!
I worked on oracle10xe and apex 1.3.1 and then messed with partition table a bit so got my windows crashed and I don't believe i'll be able to restore it.
so what i have is an oracle directory from the long-dead windows with apex inside, and i need to extract the applications and the data i was working with somehow.
Any thoughts?
Does anybody knows where does oracle store all its databases and where apex keeps its applications?
oraclexe\oradata\xe\ has some .dbf files in it, will it work if i just write them over in a newly installed oracle+apex?

Hello,
At this point, since you can't turn to Oracle Support (since it is XE), then I would suggest asking amongst your colleagues/friends/etc and trying to find a friendly DBA who will try and help you out for a beer or 3.
Depending on how critical your work was, I wouldn't throw away all hope of recovering your database until you've exhausted all the options.

Ora-06502 pl/sql numeric or value error in Report Query in oracle apex

Hello all,
I need your help...
ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: character string buffer too small
I am using bi publisher to generate PDF reports in oracle apex.
We were using APEX 4.0 and migrated to 4.2 just a week ago.
Now we have apex 4.2.
When I try to Create report query,
Shared Components >> Report Queries then create.
and test a report in a create wizard I am getting a error "ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: character string buffer too small".
I have also applied a patch "16760897".
This issue is because of number of columns in a query is more then 26.
If I run a report with 26 or less number of columns then the is working fine, otherwise getting this error.
My before migration report queries working perfectly even now, but not new queries.
This issue is also in apex.oracle.com.
You can see
Not working - http://apex.oracle.com/pls/apex/f?p=619:4
Working - http://apex.oracle.com/pls/apex/f?p=619:2:
Please give a solution.
Thanks you.

How to pass a value to a bind variable in a query report in oracle apex

Hi Guys,
I have requirement to send weekly reports via email to some users. The users should receive their own records in the report. The user details is stored in a table. What I am planning to do is to create a report query in oracle apex to generate the report and then run a function/procedure via a scheduler to email the report to respective users. Now my query is ............. is it possible to pass a value (user name) to the report query to pull records of only that user? I know we can have bind variables in the report query but I have no idea how to pass a value for bind variables from a function/procedure.
Can anyone help me on this issue or suggest a better approach?
Thanks,
San

Does anyone have any solution how to escape the single quotes in Oracle APEX 4.2. - like \' or something? I already tried using backslash but had no luck.
Would really appreciate your help ASAP.
Thanks,

execute immediate 'update emp set sal = sal * 1.2 where ename = ''SCOTT''';However a better approach when dealing with SQL strings is to use the alternative quoting mechanism:
execute immediate q'{update emp set sal = sal * 1.2 where ename = 'SCOTT'}';as this allows the original string to be left unaltered.

Issue in Upgrading Oracle APEX 2.1 to 3.1

Hi,
I have recently installed Oracle Database 10g Express Edition (Oracle Database XE) which includes Oracle Application Express (Oracle APEX) release 2.1
I have upgraded from Oracle APEX 2.1 to 3.1 by following instructions in http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/application_express/html/3.1_and_xe.html
Following is the sequence of steps I followed
1. @apexins SYSAUX SYSAUX TEMP /i/
2. @APEX_HOME/apex/apxldimg.sql APEX_HOME
3. @APEX_HOME/apex/apxxepwd.sql password
Now Oracle Database express home page changes to
http://127.0.0.1:8080/apex/f?p=4550:1:723721796272276
All gif logos are missing and font appears differently. More importantly nothing happens after entering workspace/username/password and clicking login button. I am using internet exlorer 7 and it says "Error on Page" on the bottom status bar.
Please let me know if any one encounterd similar issue and if you were able to fix the issue.
Thanks for your help

Hello,
For all of you who have the same problem that we had.
After two installs and desinstall, I have finally found what to do.
You must stop the OracleXETNSListener service when upgrading Oracle Database 10g Express Edition.
Here the steps to follow assuming that you have installed Oracle Database 10g Express Edition into C:\oraclexe
and unzipped apex_3.1.2 into C:\apex on a Windows XP System :
1. On Windows XP, Startup Menu, go to the Configuration panel, open Administration Tools, open Services, then you will click on the OracleXETNSListener service, stop it.
2. On Windows XP, Startup Menu, select Execute, type cmd and press OK to open a DOS window.
3. At the DOS prompt, type cd apex.
4. At the DOS prompt, type sqlplus /nolog
5. At the SQL prompt, type connect SYS as SYSDBA
6. Type the password of the user SYSTEM that you choose when installing Oracle XE.
7. At the SQL prompt, type *@apexins SYSAUX SYSAUX TEMP /i/* (may take 15 minutes or more)
8. At the DOS prompt, be sure to be in the apex directory (C:\apex) then type sqlplus /nolog
9. At the SQL prompt, type connect SYS as SYSDBA
10. Type the password of the user SYSTEM that you choose when installing Oracle XE.
11. At the SQL prompt, type *@apxchpwd*
12. Choose a password for ADMIN, type it then press Enter
13. At the SQL prompt, type *@apxldimg* C:\ (you will perhaps obtain a message like an error but the upgrade works fine)
14. At the SQL prompt, type *@apxxepwd* password (where password is the ADMIN password choosen at step 12)
15. At the SQL prompt, type quit
16. At the DOS prompt, type exit
17. Then go to the OracleXETNSListener service and start it.
To connect as ADMIN, type the url http://127.0.0.1:8080/apex/apex_admin
username : ADMIN
password : your admin password
You will be able to create workspaces (schemas) and users
Now you will be able to connect to APEX at http://127.0.0.1:8080/apex
workspace : your login name (workspace created in apex_admin)
username : your login name (user created in apex_admin)
password : your password (password defined for the user in apex_admin)
I hope that this steps will be clear for all of you.
Thank you to user10570446 who have provided a clear step through. So that I'd take the time to clarified my solution to my type of configuration.
I hope that RSNAIK has been able to make the upgrade to APEX 3.1.2.
Good day to everyone

How to get the class name of a page in oracle apex

Hi All,
Can anyone please let me know how we can get the class name of a page or region in oracle apex? I would also like to know how we get the DOM object ID for particular item.
I appreciate any help on this.

Raj

I would also like to know how we get the DOM object ID for particular item.Use firebug or inspect the source code of the rendered page to see the object IDs. Other then then, the typical ID of page items is the name of the item. For regions you can set your own ID.

suresh.m2015,
It's going to be impossible for anyone in this forum to help with your issue if you don't provide any more detail about your environment and Apex installation. However, from your post it looks like the Apex database objects are missing or invalid.
Did you follow the Apex installation guide step by step? For example, did you run apexins.sql?
It's important to follow the documentation. The script you are running to change the admin user password should not be run until after the Apex installation is complete.

Integrating Google Maps in Oracle Apex and 404 Not found error page

Currently using APEX version 3.2.0.00.27 installed in OracleXE version 10.2.0.1.0. Have been attempting to recreate some examples of Google Maps within APEX. Found a nice set of examples here that build up to what I'm looking to ultimately do by incorporating google maps into APEX:
http://blog.whitehorses.nl/2009/10/04/integrating-google-maps-in-oracle-apex/
Unfortunatly, I'm getting the "404 Not Found, Not found, The requested URL /apex/wwv_flow.accept was not found on this server" page when I try to recreate the "Map with Search" example. I'd like to see if this really works using the html input and button tags in the body/region source versus creating APEX items to pass the address values to the javascript in the html header of the apex page. I'm thinking it's just an html thing within APEX that you have to do it a certain way, but I haven't managed to hit that magic combination. have gone to the google maps api v2 and looked at the html they use (it's what these examples with apex are based on) and tried that just to see. Same 404 result.
I've seen suggestions at this forum and elsewhere that the 404 error is due to a bug. have been to metalink, and really haven't seen anything that spells out what the bug is and how to patch it or work around it. May be I just haven't found the right note/doc yet. have seen suggestions to change something associated with the Anonymous account that APEX uses. Have turned on authentication in the application to use an APEX user account with a logon page to the application. Still get the 404. Although, I have not adjusted anything elsewhere, like a DADS config file, because the apex/xe configuration is using the plsql gateway. Not sure of any procedure for changing settings on anonymous account when using plsql gateway.
Open to suggestions. APEX 3.2 is customer version, so going to 4 may not be an option yet. XE, on the other hand, can certainly be swapped for an 11g version standard or enterprise edition if need be. I don't think this is a db version problem though. I think it's more on the APEX side of things.
Anyway, any help or suggestions are appreciated.
thanks

Oracle APEX versus Adobe Flex on AIR

Hi
I need advantages and disadvantages Oracle APEX versus Adobe Flex on AIR. I don't know Adobe and need your help. (we fight about our potential customer).
Project:
40 users insert own actvities into database. Supervisor analyse this info (reports, charts). Users connect to app via mobile phone EDGE using laptop.
Regards

Hello again,
From the end-user perspective, FLEX applicatoins are more graphic in nature, in that they are truly graphic. APEX (at least through 3.2) generates a standard HTML type of web page. You can do graphics type of code, but Flex creates applications that will only run with Adobe tools. Flex generates an HTML page, but it calls a .swf file and plays that.
Unless it is critical that you have that fully graphic interface (a .swf file type of image that plays), standard HTML is much better. You can still generate graphs, charts and such; incorporate images in your page and all the things that standard web pages have.
With APEX, your users will see a standard HTML web-page type of interface, which most users today know how to use and expect.
Thanks,
Don.

Create PDF from PL/SQL-Interface XML FOP / Oracle BI / Oracle APEX packages

Hi All,
I think this is perhaps the most often asked question. And people suggest using PL-FPDF or PL PDF. There is a constraint, I can't use PL PDF because of monetary reasons.
I wish I could use some method to output PDF from the PL/SQL. I already have a document (word document stored as CLOB). Now, I need to output this file as PDF. I know doing this outside database is easy and advisable, but this what I have been asked to do.
Is there any method of implementation, using either XML - FOP or Oracle BI publisher or Oracle APEX tools (and not Oracle APEX itself, I know how to do this if the application is built, run using Oracle APEX, but this is plain Oracle HTP).
Database: Oracle 9.2 running in Windows server.
Thanks in advance.

Apologies for that.
I am looking into ways to use Apex. Like calling the FOP in Oracle OC4J server and generating PDF from it. As I told already, we have this application built on Oracle HTP, we can't move to Oracle Apex now. I can install Oracle APEX and use the tools it offers. No problem in that.
PL-FPDF is free, but I can see this doesn't help much. What I have is CLOB, not data from table. :(
I am just looking into different ways one can do this.

Digital Certificates and Web Services with Oracle APEX

Hi people,
I am working to implement Web Service communication using Oracle Apex. I need to create an application that calls an external public Web Service in Apex. So far, so good, and i am able to work with a public WS without any problems.
However, this particular WS I'm calling has two peculiarities:
1) It is SSL-Secured (HTTPS). This means i have to communicate using SSL and Public/Private Certificates.
2) The message i pass (payload) must be digitally signed using XMLDsig Standard (www.w3.org/TR/xmldsig-core/)
The first requirement i am still testing, but it will probably work if i import the public and private keys using Oracle Wallet and point to this Wallet, just as PayPal sample in OTN samples does, don't you think? Should i have any problems with this?
The second one is more complicated, all APIs i have seen for XML Digital Signing are Java-based or .NET-based, i have found nothing based in PL/SQL packages or such. Can you point me some other options to sign this XML?
Please bear in mind that, since the WS has more than one method, i am using plain old UTL_HTTP to call it (just like the PayPal sample in OTN). PayPal requests that all communication be SSL-enabled, but has no mention whatsoever for Digital Signatures.
Can anybody help me out with this? any help is highly appreciated.
Regards
Thiago

Thiago:
You are correct in that there should be no problem interacting with a Web service that has an HTTPS endpoint as long as you create a wallet and specify it when you make your UTL_HTTP calls, like the PayPal example.
I am not aware of a PL/SQL utility to create a XMLDsig Standard message, but if you find some Java source out there that does it, you may be able to follow a technique I used for a similar use case:

Apply "WHERE CONDITION" in "MASTER/DETAIL FORM" in "ORACLE APEX

Hi to all respected Gurus of this community.
I have a problem and I hope that there must be solution in this community and I am not aware of that till now.
I have a master/detail form in Oracle Application Express. Now, I want to apply a where condition in master-form to filter the data as per requirement but I cannot do so.
There is an option of "Modify Query" in "Query Definition". According to the instructions I am selecting the desired column (HR_Category) in left and providing text string 'M-9' in the right column to filter the data where HR_Category is M-9, and when I press apply changes, it gives me an error that
"1 error has occurred
The condition you are adding has caused the query to be invalid."
Please help how to proceed to apply a where condition.

Probably a syntax error. Check the syntax of the new clause very carefully.
Can you post the query indicating which predicate is the new one? If you need to change the column and table names for confidentiality
