Oracle newbie help

Hi I have a question on how to get oracle to make table based on the time. I'm making a CGI-based web site and need my database to create a new table every week to store data in. Can I do this with CGI or is there a way to have to the database do this? Also I needed a CGI script to send out e-mails based on the data in this table. Does anyone have any ideas for me?
Thanks a lot,
-Ian

    Hi Sam..
    I'm also quite new in field of Oracle Reports, I have already
    had experience in Oracle Database Server. I think you may refer
    to the Oracle Reports help coming with your s/w, that's good for
    first understanding. Then.. I just find out that this forum is
    also helpful with many nice and "willing to help" people.
    Well... wish you all the best and go ahead with your new job!!

  • Oracle DBA Help

    We have an Oracle 9i Database Standard Edition that is in production for about 3 years running on Windows 2003 Server Standard Edition. Our company does not have Oracle DBA. When we purchased Oracle license we didn’t sign up for Oracle Support.
    If something goes wrong with Oracle Database, if we could not figure out the solution on our own, is there any company that provides Oracle DBA help on a contract basis?
    What happens if we get internal errors in the database? Can we still contact Oracle Support?
    Please advice.

    #1. When you purchased Oracle Licenses, I guess Oracle would have provided (Support Identifier or CSI numbers), with that you should be able to create accounts/access with METALINK, which is one form of support Oracle provides. 99.99% of the day-to-day problems are resolved via metalink, oracle forms (like this) and other discussion threads.
    #2. But if you want Oracle personnel onsite, then it needs a different contract or support level, which is very expensive in my opinion. There used to be different support levels like platinum, gold, silver etc., I'm not sure of the classification now, better contact Oracle for additional info.
    I would highly recommend for #1, check the cost involved in #2 compare that with that of hiring a part-time/remote DBA, and see which one works better. If your database is not mission critical, configuring proper back and restore would help bring your database up, but with some downtime.
    Hope it helps,

    Hello Gurus,
    I am new to Oracle Text so i need your valuable inputs in resolving an issue i am facing.
    Here is the table definition and sample data:
    create table test ( a varchar2(100));
    insert into test values('Hello How are you');
    insert into test values('Just to say you Hello');
    insert into test values('I know you');
    insert into test values('you know');
    insert into test values('you may not know me');

    6 rows selected.
    If user enters search criteria ('you know', for example); i need to return all the records having 'you' AND 'know' anywhere. Hence for search criteria 'you know', i should get following records:

  • Help for an Oracle Newbie???

    Hi there,
    Sorry for probably a ridiculously stupid question but my boss has asked me to ask on here! Here goes -
    We have a network with around 100 users. Previously we have used MS Access to report on our database, the users then logged into Access Reports and ran the required report. We are now looking at using Oracle Discoverer or similar. We have installed the developer suite and have downloaded Oracle Application Server 10g. We are able to create queries using discoverer and reports using the report builder.
    My question is this - once i have created my reports (in .jsp format i believe), is it possible to host these using the application server?
    The users need to log into a website or similar and select the report they need to run.
    Any help would be appreciated - as i say, sorry for probably a silly question!!
    Many thanks,
    James.

    Hi!
    The answer is yes and the details on how is in the docs, see the link below.
    http://download-east.oracle.com/docs/cd/B14099_19/bi.1012/b14048/toc.htm
    It would be a too lengthy thread trying go through all the details...
    You can also publish your Discoverer Workbooks using Portal as the frontend publishing platform

  • Oracle newbie needs help

    Hello,
    First of all: Sorry for my bad English! :-) Here is the problem: Our program (written in 4D) has the functionality that the users can export some of the data from theirs database (also 4D) into an Oracle database. Until now, the data was imported to oracle via transactions. Is the customer database very big, the export time takes over 36 hours. This is of course unacceptable. As an alternative, we export the data into an SQL file. (5-6 GB) What tool must I use to import the file to oracle?
    Has anybody an alternative proposal for a better solution?

    As an alternative, we export the
    data into an SQL file. (5-6 GB) What tool must I use
    to import the file to oracle?Does SQL file mean a text file including DDL (Create, ...)/DML (INSERT, ...) statements? If yes, you could use sqlplus to execute such a "script".
    Has anybody an alternative proposal for a better
    solution?If you can export data into a .csv file, you could use sqlloader/external tables.

  • Select statement help for sql/oracle newbie

    I have a db for a fake airline. i have a route table that has columns for "FIRST_CLASS_FARE", "COACH_FARE", and "ECONOMY_FARE". I then have a flight table that references the route#, then a trip table that references the flight#. I also have a passenger table and a reservation table that has the passenger # in it. The reservation table also has a column called "reservation class" that has a 'f' for first class fare, 'c' for coach fare, 'e' for economy fare.
    What I am trying to do is create a fill for each individual passenger that shows the total amount they spent on all of their reservations.
    Any suggestions on how to join the tables to create this bill?
    Thanks in advance!

    Is it the way the passenger table has columns and is populated,
    for a passenger A, takes a route - 1 with First class fare - $2500 on flight- B123, to a trip - t1 and reserved for class - 'f'
    If this is the way, then you get the bill from the fare column

  • SAP Adaptor for Oracle Installation Help

    Hi,
    I am newbie, I am looking for help in installing SAP Adaptor for Oracle.
    My Idea is to do some RFC calls to fetch data from SAP into Oracle database. I am looking for what is my starting points, what to install and configurations. If you can help me with steps to be followed is really Appreciative. I tried to search in Oracle Forums, I guess I am not able to come up with correct tags. It may be a long explanation and may be people asked this question before. If you give me links to read is good enough.
    Following is My platform:
    Oracle:
    I have Oracle 10G and 11 versions. Right now I have my infrastructer ready for 10G. If I install SAP Adaptor and get things running according to what I need, and tomorrow if I upgrade Oracle to 11 version, What all the things that I Upgrade?
    Operating System:
    Unix AIX 5.3
    SAP:
    ECC 6
    Thanks In Advance,
    Raj Murthy(Bhavaraju)

    Hello,
    Right now I have my infrastructer ready for 10G. If I install SAP Adaptor and get things running according to what I need, and tomorrow if I upgrade Oracle to 11 version, What all the things that I Upgrade?About all the topics relatives to SAP, you should ask them (to SAP support service) the question. For instance, is Oracle 11.2 certified for SAP ECC6 ? Or would you have to wait for a later release or patch from SAP ?
    Only SAP could answer you for their own product and matrix compatibility / certification.

  • Copy data from mysql to oracle database help?

    Im an sql newb and trying to understand how I can automatically copy data from one dtabase to another systems database on the same server.
    We have two differnt applications, but both share customer information, but one is on a win server, while the other is on oracle.
    Each time a customer contacts us via online chat (win server, mysql), we want to copy their entire chat transcript into our CRM's (oracle) customer account. So the folks that use the CRM can see the past chat histories. I hope this makes sense.
    Where can i look to get started on this?
    Thanks

    You could look at Heterogeneous Services (see the forum here Heterogeneous Connectivity but if you want to push data from mysql to oracle you might be better looking at it from the mssql side. I don't know what they offer.
    It might be simpler to do it at the client end. ie cut and paste from the online chat application into a new utility which inserts into the oracle database.
    Incidentally, this forum is specifically for the SQLDeveloper tool. You might get more general help in the "database - general" or "sql and pl/sql" forums

    Create a procedure to insert a record into the Bill_Items table. All the fields in the Bill_Items table will be specified as para with the exception of the Selling_Price, which will be the Current_Price, retrieved from the Menu_Items table. Do not allow the insert to finish unless there are enough of all ingredients on hand. If the insert is successfull, the quantity field in the Ingredient table will need to be updated accordingly.

                                                'THU',day_thursday,
                                                'FRI',day_friday,
                                                'SAT',day_saturday )
                              FROM table1)
                       END as override_goal
                FROM (SELECT in_dt1+(LEVEL-1) dates,
                             TO_CHAR(in_dt1+(LEVEL-1),'DY') days
                      FROM(SELECT TO_DATE(&from_date,'DD-MON-YYYY') in_dt1,
                                  TO_DATE(&to_date,'DD-MON-YYYY') in_dt2
                                 FROM dual)
                      CONNECT BY LEVEL <= (in_dt2 - in_dt1)+1) qry1);
    Now run the query it will prompt you for the inputs. You can pass the date values and check the result. Otherwise replace &from_date,&to_date with user inputs

    ResultSets based on a wildcard are generally treated as views by Oracle, meaning they are not updatable no matter how you create your statement. Try either "select swa.* from sw_assets swa" or "select all from sw_assets swa", that should get around the problem.
    Also (just being thorough) make sure that you specifically created your statement as being updatable (stmt = conn.createStatement(ResultSet.TYPE_SCROLL_INSENSITIVE, ResultSet.CONCUR_UPDATABLE) ).
    I would not normally expect a NullPointerException when encountering this "feature", but then I don't often use the ODBC bridge.
    Good luck! I hope this helps.
