Oracle ignores max_dispatchers parameter

Hello,
Does anyone know why Oracle would ignore the max_dispatchers parameter?
[root@prod1 ~]# sps d00
oracle 1507 1 0 16:34 ? 00:00:04 ora_d000_prod1
oracle 1509 1 0 16:34 ? 00:00:03 ora_d001_prod1
You can see the two above. I can see in the alert log that the database starts two up:

Now this is a Dataguard configuration. Would there be a dispatcher for the Dataguard as well by default? Irrespective of my parameters?

Oracle Ignores hint in One Instance and uses the hint in another instance

Hi Oracle World,
I am experiencing a strange problem in Oracle.
We have two oracle servers: one for Test and one for Production.
We have exactly the same code for a view in both the systems:
The code is as follows:
CREATE OR REPLACE FORCE VIEW V_FT(...................)
AS
SELECT /*+ star_transformation fact (FT) */
FT.*, AH.ACCT_1, LH.REGION, FH.FNCT_1
FROM
LOCATION_HIERARCHY LH,
ACCOUNT_HIERARCHY AH,
FUNCTIONAL_HIERARCHY FH,
FACT_TABLE FT
WHERE
LH.COMPANY = FT.COMPANY
AND AH.ACCOUNT = FT.ACCOUNT
AND FH.FUNCTIONR = FT.FUNCTION;
When I see the execution path:
In Test box the Explain plan is as expected: It takes the Star_transformation hint into account, converts all three reference table joins to bitmap and performance is good.
But In Production, It tatally ignores the table name from the hint.
Also it converts all the tables names to lower case: though it shouldn't impact, I have also tried to give the table names in lower case and then tried. Same issue.
Tried with NO_MERGE hint. It was pretty good in Test but same issue in Production: it ignoes the table name from hint.
I have taken out the table name from test and then tested. Now both the explain plans match. That proves oracle ignores the table name in Production.
We have compared all the parameters in both. They are 100% same. All indexes are analyzed. Can anyone please help what could be the fundamental difference that causes this difference?
Production takes 8 minutes for a specific query whereas Test returns the same query in 45 secs. Data volume is also not very much different except few hundreds.
Any pointers please?
Thanks & Regards
Saswati

It is enabled. As I have mentioned we have compared all the parameters in both.
All v$parameter, init.ora settings everything is same.

Export-CMTaskSequence exports content of dependencies and is ignoring WithContent parameter

I'm try to build a script to export my task sequence with dependencies without the content.
But when I use this command line
get-CMTaskSequence
-Name
"$Tsname"
|
Export-CMTaskSequence
-WithDependence
$true
-WithContent
$false -ExportFilePath
"$rootExportPath$TSName.zip"
The folder "$rootExportPath$TSName_files"
is still created. How can I really export the task sequence and the package/application information only. Does anyone know how these parameters really work, or is this by design?
Note: I have created a seperate script to copy all content to the
$rootExportPath$TSName
folder in a way that the structure remains.

ORACLE APPLICATIONS에서 FORMS60_TIMEOUT PARAMETER의 적용 절차

제품 : AOL
작성날짜 : 2003-04-07
ORACLE APPLICATIONS에서 FORMS60_TIMEOUT PARAMETER의 적용 절차
=======================================================
PURPOSE
Oracle ERP를 사용하는 고객의 경우 Application Login 후 오랜시간 Application을 사용하지 않는 경우 Login 한 Session이 끊겨 화면이 자동으로 log-off 되기를 원하는 경우가 있다.
이런 경우 아래의 FORMS60_TIMEOUT 관련 Setting을 이용하여 일정 시간 Application을 사용하지 않는 경우 자동으로 Session이 log-off 되게 한다.
Explanation
현재 master의 경우 FORMS60_TIMEOUT parameter는 설정되어 있지만 올바르게 작동하지 않는 문제가 있다. 이것은 client에서 forms server로 자신이 살아 있음을 알리는 packet을 보내는 time interval parameter인 heartBeat이 FORMS60_TIMEOUT 보다 작게 설정되어 있어서 일어난 문제이다.
따라서 default 2분인 hearBeat parameter value를 FORMS60_TIMEOUT value
보다 크게 해줘야 한다.
FORMS60_TIMEOUT과 heartBeat parameter의 설정 방법은 다음과 같다.
1) $APPL_TOP/.env
FORMS60_TIMEOUT parameter의 value를 설정한다.
2) $OA_HTML/bin/appsweb.cfg
UI parameter를 찾아서 heartBeat을 설정한다.
단 이 값은 FORMS60_TIMEOUT보다 커야 한다.
; UI parameters: DO NOT MODIFY unless so instructed by Oracle
colorScheme=blue
lookAndFeel=oracle
darkLook=true
readOnlyBackground=automatic
background=no
dontTruncateTabs=true
imageBase=CodeBase
heartBeat=12 <--- 추가
3) $OA_HTML/US/appsbase.htm에서 아래의 부분들을 찾아서 추가라고

Oracle Reports In Oracle Forms 11g Parameter problem.

Hello techies,
            I am using Weblogic server 10.3.5 with oracle forms 11g at windows 7.I have a report that is Bar_code.rdf.It has two parameters as:
P_1---->character type---->accepts the options(barcode generated or barcode not generated)
P_2---->Number type------->accepts the subgroupitemId.
This report is well working with oracle report builder. Now I tried to run it from my oracle forms.It runs but it does not accept Parameter P_2. I have used
sParms := 'P_1='||:L_BAR||' P_2='||TO_NUMBER(:TXT_ITM_GRP);
set_report_object_property(roRepid,report_other,sParms||' paramform=yes');
set_report_object_property(roRepid,REPORT_SERVER,sReportServer);
v_rep := RUN_REPORT_OBJECT(roRepid);
sJob := SUBSTR(v_rep,LENGTH(sReportServer)+2);   --
But there is a parameter form is shown but when i click submmit query the,,,,there is
Error 500--Internal Server Error
From RFC 2068 Hypertext Transfer Protocol -- HTTP/1.1:
10.5.1 500 Internal Server Error
The server encountered an unexpected condition which prevented it from fulfilling the request.
please give me the solution
thank you

aaditya

Hi
are there character symbol appeared in your parameter ?
i've suffering for some unexpected error for parameter value end up with slash , like D:\temp\   ....
and oracle sr (support) says that with workaround mechanism (add additional slash like D:\temp\\ ) they have not plan to fix this issue .
hope this helpful for you.

Calling oracle API having parameter as record type throughPL/SQL WebService

Hi All,
I dont know whether this is the right forum to put this query, but as i am using a pl/sql web service , putting the query on this forum.
My requirement is to call oracle API which in turh creates a single Invoice(using Ar_Invoice_Api_Pub.create_single_invoice )
But the issue is this API in turn has some of the input parameters as Record type and table type, my concern is how to pass this data(record type or table type) as parameter thorugh java code .. If i use Collection or Hashmap will it work , I dont think so , some intermediate conversion will require.
Subsequently the other requirement is fetch this record/table type data and return it to the java code
Please correct me if i am wrong and suggest a proper solution if anybody is aware off or tried such things before.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Anant.

Hi,I'm new comer of this world,
I've a pl/sql like this:
package MY_WS_API is
type record_set is ref cursor;
PROCEDURE Get_User_Info(p_user_id VARCHAR2,
p_rep_id VARCHAR2,
p_flag out number,
p_msg out varchar2,
p_recordset out record_set);
end MY_WS_API;
when I using jdeveloper trying to publish it as a webservice, in the step 4 of the wizzard poping me choose the program unit to expose, the PROCEDURE Get_User_Info is not available and told me "Ref cursor Type is not supported due to a jdbc limitation and Ref Cursor Types are only supported for use of return type".
THE QUESTION is:
1.the cursor I used is of return type,I'm not very understanding the "why not" message upon.
2.in such case , need I trans the return cursor into Object[] if have to?
3.any other limitation for generating WS from PL/SQL using jdeveloper?
Thanks!

Personal Oracle 9i utl_file_dir parameter

Need some help please.
I have a problem with utl_file_dir parameter not being set.
utl_file_dir = * in my init.ora file.
Using SQLPlus , I can see the v$parameter for utl_file_dir is null;
I have just gone to 9i Personal v2 from 8i where everything worked ok.(standalone pc)
None of my existing procedures using utl_file will work now. I get
"Invalid directory path" because utl_file_dir is not set up.
My init.ora file is "c:\oracle91\admin\bills\pfile\init.ora.032003152232
which is also confusing.
Thanks for any help you can give.

Thanks for the reply, however,
I renamed my c:\oracle91\database\spfile<oracle-instance>.ora file and rebooted.
I got these messages when I tried a SQLPlus connection.
"Oracle not available" and "Shared memory realm does not exist".
Any other suggestions or method to set this parameter?
Thanks.

but u can full fill user requirement using oracle forms
create a form as like as report parameter window
then create parameter list and run report

GetTypeInfo from Oracle: VARCHAR2 missing parameter?

Hi,
I have a problem when I run the following code to get typeInfo from Oracle. That is, when the typeName is VARCHAR2, the create params from rs.getString(6) return Null.
I think it should return a LENGTH parameter, as VARCHAR2 requires a length parameter for its type, such as VARCHAR2(30). So I simply can not use it to get the data type information for a column.
Is it a bug for the JDBC driver? I am using Oracle JDBC driver (class12.zip). Is there any way to fix it?
void getDataTypeMetadata(DatabaseMetaData meta)
      ResultSet rs;
      String    typeName, params;
      rs = meta.getTypeInfo();
      while (rs.next())
         typeName = rs.getString(1);
         params = rs.getString(6);
         if (rs.wasNull()) params = null;
         System.out.println("typeNames=" + typeName );
         System.out.println("createParams=" + rs.getString(6));
      rs.close();
}Thanks for the help!

Hi,
I have a problem when I run the following code to get
typeInfo from Oracle. That is, when the typeName is
VARCHAR2, the create params from rs.getString(6)
return Null. This might be a typo in your post, but you shouldn't call getString() twice on the same column. The second System.out.println() should actually refer to the variable params, not call getString() again!
I think it should return a LENGTH parameter, as
VARCHAR2 requires a length parameter for its type,
such as VARCHAR2(30). So I simply can not use it to
get the data type information for a column.
getTypeInfo() returns "a description of all the standard SQL types supported by this database" there is now way it can return a length information, because a length information is only stored for an actual table column. And the javadoc clearly says that this field may be null!
I can not use getColumns() method since it requires
the table name argument in order to get specific
COLUMN_SIZE information of each column in the specific
table. Here I want to know, from JDBC, what kinds of
types are used in Oracle and what is the parameter for
each of these types.If you don't have a column you can't get a size information. Simple as that.

Oracle forms 10g Parameter passing from forms to reports

Hello Room,
Please let me know what is wrong with this code. It is not passing parameter at all to the reports 10g parameter form from forms 10g, no matter what.

Hello Inol,
Greetings !
There seems to be a syntax error when I run your code:-
REP-52251: Cannot get output of job ID 272 you requested on Fri Apr 08 02:37:25 GMT 2011.<P>REP-51026: No output for job 272
when I run then command:-
http://local-pc:8889/reports/rwservlet/showjobs
Terminated with error: <br>REP-159: Syntax error on command line.
Is there a error on your statement ?
WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT('/reports/rwservlet/getjobid'||substr(v_rep,instr(v_rep,'_',-1)+1) ||'?server=repsrv );
it should be
WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT('/reports/rwservlet/getjobid'||substr(v_rep,instr(v_rep,'_',-1)+1) ||'?server=repsrv ' );
then only it is getting compiled properly. A single quote in the end !
And finally I changed this line
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_OTHER,'paramform=no p_1='||:SP_USERCODE 'p_my_second_parameter='||:block.my_second_parameter);
to this line
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_OTHER,'paramform=no p_1='||:SP_USERCODE|| *'p*mysecond_parameter='||:block.my_second_parameter);
as it is giving error where highlighted in bold Is it necessary to change and add a concatenation there ?_
But... But... even though I compile it properly the code is getting executed and it is giving the above error. Please note the same.
Also please tell me what should be the status of the following things in report builder 10g.
1. Shall I remove the parameters vcompany and vlocname from the parameter form and keep it just in parameters of report , There is a third parameter which I want the user to input while running the report other than these 2 parameters ?
2. Shall I restrict the parameter to predetermined values ?
3. Shall I hide the first column of the parameter in report builder.
I have also tried to simulate the execution parameters from batch to runtime and comm mode to synchronous and asynchronous and vice versa. I have also given command rwserver server = repsrv on my pc and also server pc. please let me know about this also whether I need to give this command every time ? I mean for every booting ?
As this problem is faced by many people. I think it should work across the fly as given by you or rather corrected by you. I would also like to know is there any patch available for the same released by oracle, as I have read somewhere in the forum here which I cannot locate the thread now. I do not mind paying for support if I find the need ?
Please help me further. Thank you.

Default language and region, oracle ignores users wishes

hi!
oracle seems to ignore users language wishes. for test, i
installed oracle 9i client. i'm using windows 2k us english, but
use localization of switzerland (numbers, date, etc.).
the installer was:
- in german
no way to convice it to go to english
- i removed german from the installed product languages,
i just left english.
then i started enterprise manager:
- it was in german!!
no way to get it to use english
- all the umlauts were desplayed
strangely.
you should really rethink your concept of localization. language
is NOT localization. a gui should offer to change the used
language EASILY (one click). a database should offer to change
the language in wich it writes error messages easily.

The Oracle installer and the enterprise manager pick up the
user's perferred language from the regional setting on your
Windows OS. Did you by any chance set your locale on Windows to
German (Swiss) ?
Regarding the language of the database error messages, this is
driven by the language part of the NLS_LANG environment
variable. This is also session based, so it you really want to
you can have the 1st error message in German , follow by the
next one in French , and then in Italian etc ....

Ignoring Optional parameter during OLE method calling

Hi guys,
I got a problem:
Application.Workbooks.OpenXML(Filename, Stylesheets, LoadOption) here's a defination from Microsoft help.
Stylesheets and LoadOption are optional parameters.
ABAP calling:
CALL METHOD OF workbooks 'OpenXML'
    EXPORTING #1 = filename
                       #2 = '3'
                       #3 = 2 .
How can ignore parameter #2(Stylesheets) in the calling statement? I found no documentation about calling functions ignoring some optional parameters. Normaly there's posibility to explicitely define passing parameter, for example:
    Application.Workbooks.OpenXML _
        Filename:="customers.xml", _
        LoadOption:=xlXmlLoadImportToList
With kind regards
Long.

Webutil client_get_file_name ignoring directory parameter

I am trying to use the Webutility client_get_file_name and evrything is working correctly except the directory setting. I would expect the look in directory would be c:\temp in the following code when the dialog comes up;
v_filename := client_get_file_name('C:\temp',nul,null,'Select SOFSRP file for upload',OPEN_FILE,TRUE);
But to my surprise the look in directory is "c:\my documents". No matter what I put in I get the same starting directory. I have verified the directories exist and I have admin rights on this client so permissions should not be an issue. I have even tried using other similar webutil functions like file_open_dialog or file_selection_dialog and they all behave the same. I really need to have the open dialog start in a defined directory passed to the utility. Thanks in advance.
P.S. I am using forms 10.1.2.0.2 with matching webutil version 10.1.2.0.

Start-Process ignores the parameter "-wait" with explorer.exe

Hi all,
maybe it´s a stupid question, but...
Start-Process notepad.exe -Wait
...will wait for closing the process "notepad.exe".
Start-Process explorer.exe -Wait
...will not wait for closing it, instead the script will go on.
My question: Why? :) is it because "explorer.exe" is a core element of Windows and there are more then one process? For whaty exactly is the parameter "-wait" waiting for? Finishing the process name, the Process ID?
is it a bug?
Otherwise, do you have a good idea for that scenario:
a script will be started and opens a dedicated network share. Within this share the user (ServiceDesk Employee) can paste a CSV file, and after closing the Explorer, the script will read in this CSV and import that informations.
Thank you guys!

I think the issue is due to explorer.exe is always running, if you stop that process, then you will lose your entire desktop. By opening File Explorer, a new explorer.exe process does not start up. You can verify this by opening task manager, and under the
process tab, look at your process count, and then open a few File Explorer windows, this count does not change.
Your script may need to be a two step process, where the Help Desk user manually copies the CSV file, then runs the script, or you can do a Read-Host, where they put in the path to the CSV file, and then your script can copy it to where it needs to go, and
then continue its execution.

Pausing SAPinst to adjust Oracle init.ora parameter

Guys, I'm doing an unicode system import and its taking too long. So I intend to adjust some of the oracle memory and other parameters as recommended the SAP notes.
However, in SAPinst, from the phases of db creation, tablespace creation, r3load process and till the end is one continuous phase. I want to stop SAPinst right after the db creation phase, so that I can edit init.ora, restart the db and proceed with the r3load phase.
how do i do it ? I've tried making a dummy change to the location of the "import directory", to trick sapinst to stop on purpose, but this doesnt seem to be working.
do it need to edit the confusing control.xml or keydb.xml, i miss those *.r3s days.

> your mean the R3load.exe binary itself in the kernel directory ? Perhaps i can give it a try..
Yes.
Or select "start migration monitor manually". Sapinst will then stop, you can reconfigure the database and then use the import monitor to import the database.
