Oracle not returning correct datatype

Hello, I am trying to create a web application on an Oracle Database. However, whenever I try and bring back a data type of type number it only comes back as strings. I have tried using ODBC as well as OO4O and both only return strings. I have been stuck for quite a while and was hoping someone might be able to help.
The OO4O code I am using to access my Oracle Database is:
<html>
<head>
<title>Oracle Objects For OLE (OO4O) 2.3 </title>
</head>
<body BGCOLOR="#FFFFFF">
<font FACE="ARIAL,HELVETICA">
<h2 align="center">Oracle Objects For OLE (OO4O) 2.3 </h2>
<%
SqlQuery = "Select * from food"
%>
<%
If SqlQuery = "" Then
%>
<% Else %>
<table BORDER="1">
<%
Set OraDatabase = OraSession.GetDatabaseFromPool(10)
Set OraDynaset = OraDatabase.CreateDynaset(SqlQuery,0)
Set Columns= OraDynaset.Fields
%>
<tr>
<td><table BORDER="1">

<% For i = 0 to Columns.Count - 1 %>

<% Next %>

<% while NOT OraDynaset.EOF %>
<tr>
<% For col = 0 to Columns.Count - 1 %>
<td><%
temp2 = Columns(col)
response.write(temp2)%>

<% Next %>

if (temp2 = 35) Then
     Response.Write "SUCCESS"
end if
%>

Hi Justin, thank you for responding.
for both the ODBC and oo4o example I am using the SQL statement below:
varSQL = "SELECT * FROM food"
The food table has two filed, a main of type varchar2 and a quantity of type number.
Both the main and the quantity are coming back to my ASP application as string type.
Thank You for the help.

Fsbtodb macro in ufs_fs.h does not return correct disk address

I'm using fsbtodb to translate the file inode block address to file system block address.
What I've observed is fsbtodb returns corretct disk address for all the files if file system size < 1 TB.
But, if ufs file system size is greater than 1 TB then for some files, the macro fsbtodb does not return correct value, it returns -ve value
Is this a known issue and is this been resolved in new versions
Thanks in advance,
dhd

returns corretct disk address for all the files if file system size < 1 TB.and
if ufs file system size is greater than 1 TB then for some files, the macro fsbtodb does not return correct value, it returns -ve valueI seem to (very) vaguely recall that you shouldn't be surprised at this example of a functional filesize limitation.
Solaris 9 was first shipped in May 2002 and though it was the first release of that OS to have extended file attributes I do not think the developers had intended the OS to use raw filesystems larger than 1TB natively.
That operating environment is just too old to do exactly as you hope.
Perhaps others can describe this at greater length.

Table not returning correct information

We had a problem where doing a select count(*) returned a number, but then when a select * was issued not rows were returned. Many iterations were tried. Some returning rows and others not. Then when trying to truncate FK errors occurred. Does anyone know what might have been the problem? Our solution was to drop and re-create the tables. This was in a test environment, but we don't want this to happen in production.
Thanks.

Something doesn't sound right to me. I haven't seen this happen in our Oracle databases but have seen this happen with a DB2 database
when an index was corrupt. The solution was to rebuild the index in that case. I'd issue a statement to validate the structure of the table
and its indexes:
analyze table table_name validate structure cascade;
From the 8.1.7 SQL manual:
VALIDATE STRUCTURE
Specify VALIDATE STRUCTURE to validate the structure of the analyzed object. The statistics collected by this clause are not used by the Oracle optimizer, as are
statistics collected by the COMPUTE STATISTICS and ESTIMATE STATISTICS clauses.
For a table, Oracle verifies the integrity of each of the table's data blocks and rows.
For a cluster, Oracle automatically validates the structure of the cluster's tables.
For a partitioned table, Oracle also verifies that each row belongs to the correct partition. If a row does not collate correctly, its rowid is inserted into the
INVALID_ROWS table.
For a temporary table, Oracle validates the structure of the table and its indexes during the current session.
For an index, Oracle verifies the integrity of each data block in the index and checks for block corruption. This clause does not confirm that each row in the table
has an index entry or that each index entry points to a row in the table. You can perform these operations by validating the structure of the table with the
CASCADE clause (described below).
Oracle stores statistics about the index in the data dictionary views INDEX_STATS and INDEX_HISTOGRAM.
See Also: Oracle8i Reference for information on these views
Validating the structure of an object prevents SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, and DELETE statements from concurrently accessing the object. Therefore, do not use this
clause on the tables, clusters, and indexes of your production applications during periods of high database activity.
If Oracle encounters corruption in the structure of the object, an error message is returned to you. In this case, drop and re-create the object.
INTO table
Specify a table into which Oracle lists the rowids of the partitions whose rows do not collate correctly. If you omit schema, Oracle assumes the list is in
your own schema. If you omit this clause altogether, Oracle assumes that the table is named INVALID_ROWS. The SQL script used to create this table
is UTLVALID.SQL.
CASCADE
Specify CASCADE if you want Oracle to validate the structure of the indexes associated with the table or cluster. If you use this clause when validating a
table, Oracle also validates the table's indexes. If you use this clause when validating a cluster, Oracle also validates all the clustered tables' indexes,
including the cluster index.
If you use this clause to validate an enabled (but previously disabled) function-based index, validation errors may result. In this case, you must rebuild the
index.

MessageChoice does not return correct value

Hi
I am problem with MessgeChoiceBean's improver beharior
For the first time it retunrs blank and subsequently In one page if I select Yes, it returns No.
In another page it does not return any thing for the first two selections. And I reciev flip values.
I ran VO outside, VO is returning correct values.
MessageChoice attributes and associated PPR:

I have quite a bit number of columns to change render property.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks

Your question is not clear, are you saying the values in the messageChoiceBean is not displayed properly. As far as I can see from the definition the poplist picks the values from a lookup(Yes, No) values and has a PPR action associated with it. Did you check what this method handleNewLocationFlagChange is doing in the AM ?

Rtrim in where clause not returning correct data

A select statement specifying
where rtrim(field_name) <> ''
is not returning any rows even though there is data on the table with field_name not blank.
If this particular where clause is omitted the data is returned and rtrim(field_name) is populated correctly.
This is occurring across different tables and in both 10.2.0.4 and 11.2.0.1 databases. I can't find any references to this being a bug.
Has anyone else come across this ? Can anyone explain why this is happening please ?

An empty VARCHAR2 is considered NULL by Oracle.
sql> select 1 from dual where trim (' ') = '';
no rows selected
sql> select 1 from dual where trim (' ') != '';
no rows selected
sql> select 1 from dual where trim (' ') is null;

Problems with EVGET not Returning Correct Results

We have several reports with EVGETs that are not working. It seems to be limited to gets on a particular datasrc when getting members at the base level. Here is an example.
Application: Budgeting
Deptid: D_07104
Account: A_612080
Product: P_070040
Project: PJ_NOPROJ
Time: 2009.APR
Datasrc; ACTUALS
Category: INPUT
At this point, all the members above are base level members. A standard EVGET will not return results at this intersection even though there is data. If we change any of the following (Deptid, product, time, or category) to a parent level member, data will be returned. Another action we can take to get data to return is open a new worksheet and write the same EVGET on the same intersection and it will return results. If we go back to the original sheet edit each formula and hit enter it will return the correct results. If we refresh the sheet, the results will disappear. We have also tried EVGTS and get similar results.
Another thing we have tried is copying a month of data from datasrc (ACTUALS) and category (INPUT) to datasrc (NEW_ACTUALS) and category (NEW_INPUT) through the BPC delivered copy. That seems to work. I don't know if the copy does something to load the data that we are missing. We also updated our fact table with a SQL update changing the datasrc and category the same way and processed the application and the data would return through some EVGETs and not others.

This issue can happen when you have for onde dimension multiple hierachies and something is wrong into hierachies.
Usually you have dimension formula where you are trying to do calculation of a member from H1 using members from H2.
This it is an example but it can be other possible errors.
Any way for sure your issue is related to one dimension having multiple hierachies.

Filr 1.1 LDAP Preview Not Returning Correct Number of Result

I'm finishing set up of Filr 1.1 in our environment but noticed today that the LDAP preview does not return the correct number of results. The query:
(&(objectClass=Person)(|(employeeType=E)(employeeT ype=Y)(employeeType=Z)))
has been tried against multiple AD domain controllers and has so far returned 3 different user counts - 2895, 2800, and 2700. Mostly it always returns 2800. The correct count using powershell with the exact same ldap filter is over 5000.
I would prefer not to try a sync until I have some confidence that it will complete successfully. Any suggestions?

ADDT not returning correct results

Hello
SELECT tblTraders.trader_company AS trader_ref, tblTrades.trade_name AS trade_ref, tblT2t.t2t_id
FROM (tblT2t LEFT JOIN tblTraders ON tblT2t.trader_ref = tblTraders.trader_id) LEFT JOIN tblTrades ON tblT2t.trade_ref = tblTrades.trade_id
WHERE {$NXTFilter_rstblT2t1}
ORDER BY {$NXTSort_rstblT2t1}
With reference to the above SQL statement generated while using dynamic list wizard, the SQL does not return the correct results.
Sadly the SQL does not retrieve the field "trade_ref" and is blank when the "test" button is used.
Anyone got any ideas?

Res.getPathTranslated() does not return correct URL of the page requested

Hi,
The res.getPathTranslated() statement in the below code (in doFilter method) does not return the correct URL of the requested webpage.
Whenever a web page is accessed using a return statement (eg : return "nextPage"; ) inside a button's action method or a hyperlink's action method, the res.getPathTranslated() returns the URL of the current webpage instead of returning the URL of the webpage that is actually requested.
For example if there is a button on the page http://localhost:29080/MyJaas/faces/firstPage.jsp
And the button_action() is as follows
button_action()
return "nextPage";
The res.getPageTranslaged() returns "http://localhost:29080/MyJaas/faces/firstPage.jsp" instead of "http://localhost:29080/MyJaas/faces/nextPage.jsp"
However, if the webpage is requested by populating the URL property of the hyerlink in creator IDE, the res.getPathTranslated() returns the correct (requested) web page.
How to make res.getPathTranslagted() return the correct URL when the webpage is accessed from hyperlink's / button's action method?
I know that the explation is not very clear, so please bear with me. Let me know if you need more clarificatons. Thanks in advance for showing interest in this issue.

ERROR: FMS Server did not return correctly!

"Unable to connect - FMS server did not return corrently"
I asked them to send me the test's details.
"App-Server returned: code:ok, servers=rtmp://fmwebserversec:1935/_rtmp://localhost:8506/,rtmpt://fmwebserversec:443/_rt mp://localhost:8506/"
I know, this threat has been post at this forum, but I don't find a solution for my users. The Adobe Connect Support is trying to give a solution, but at the moment, I haven't recieve any solution.
I' ve tried: disconnect firewall, anti-virus,... and they keep unable to connect. (using adobe connect hosted ver 7.5)
Thanks for your advice and help.

Request.getServerPort() not returning correct port

Hi,
I am using Oracle AS 10.1.2.0.2.
In my jsp request.getServerPort() returns me the webcache(HTTP Listen) port number, but it supposed to return me the port of my OC4J(defined in http-website.xml).
Could guys advice what need to change.

Hi Joni,
Is there a severe i18n bug in the servlet / jsp framework?Not a bug, but a limitation in the 2.2 java servlet classes. Up to Ver. 2.2, there was no way to tell the servlet what decoding to apply to the stream of bytes coming from the web page. Therefore, request.getParameter("toAdd") would always use its default platform encoding, typically something like Cp1252. So, suppose your web page sends bytes corresponding to a string containing the single Chinese character for tea in UTF8 encoding:
"\u8336" => 0xe8, 0x8c, 0xb6
which getParameter would decode into the three character string: "\u00e8\u008c\u00b6"
request.getParameter("toAdd").getBytes(); then returns an array of the original three bytes, and
new String(request.getParameter("toAdd").getBytes(),"UTF8"); then returns the original string "\u8336"
The good news is that in Ver. 2.3 of the java servlet classes all that nonsense above is unnecessary. The ServletRequest interface has a new method setCharacterEncoding(java.lang.String env), so all you have to do is insert
request.setCharacterEncoding ("UTF8"); before you call request.getParameter("toAdd") and your input byte stream will be correctly decoded. Works great.

Joe

LOV in APEX not returning correct info

Hi,
I have created a test application on apex.oracle.com
http://apex.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=30495:2:3825777729569530::NO::P2_OFFICE_CALL100_KEY:1548
username = test
pswd = test
When I click on LOV icon next to CALLER LAST NAME, I am suppose to see all the last names from the table where the first name = CALLER FIRST NAME.
The code in LOV (CALLER_LAST_NAME) is
select distinct OFFICE_CALL1_CALLER_NAME_LAST d,OFFICE_CALL1_CALLER_NAME_LAST r
from office_call1
where office_call1_caller_name_first = :P2_OFFICE_CALL100_NAME_FIRST
order by 1
When I click on the above LOV I do not get values.
I ran the above in sql and for 'TRACEY' as first name I get 3 results.
Please let me know what am I missing.
Thanks
Munish

Hi Munish,
Sorry for the delay, but I had a tough day and I just remembered that I needed to follow up with you earlier. Your issue can be solved in one of 2 ways only:
1- Make the first name LOV do a submit after value change. And I am sure you dont want to do that, because this will submit the whole page and may throw validation errors or complete trasactions that you dont want to submit yet.
2-Use Ajax and process on demand feature in Apex.
This is not simple to explain, but I have published an online example that does what you want but for other scenario . Your senario is a bit simpler so take only what you need from my code and use as needed. If you need help in that let me know and I will explain.

Bizzare error - datasource and getdate not returning correct day of week

Hi,
This is on CFMX 7.0.2,142559.
I have a data source pointing to a MS SQL server. There is a
simple query that access a date off the database and extract the
values of:
-. Current timestamp
-. Day of week
-. First day of week
The query has been running for years and suddenly it gives me
the wrong Day of week and First day of week, but the timestamp is
correct! The result of the calculation for the Day of Week suddenly
became one day ahead, the @@DATEFIRST switched between 6 and 7
(being 7 as the correct value).
Here is the code:
<cfquery name="dte0" datasource="test123"
SELECT getdate() dte, DATEPART(dw, getdate()) dteDW,
@@DATEFIRST dteFirst, @@language LanguageVersion
</cfquery>
<cfdump expand="Yes" label="Query Dump" var="#dte0">
I tried to delete and recreate this data source, restart CF
and flush the cache with no success.
The really bizarre thing is for a few minutes after I restart
CF, it returnes the correct data, but then it suddenly moves one
day ahead - and again, only the Day of week. The DATEFIRST
sometimes returns 6 (instead of the correct value of 7) The
timestamp is ALWAYS correct.
I then created a second data source with exactly the same
parameters and named it "test456" and it works perfectly every
time!!
I am baffled as how this happened and how to fix it.
Does anyone know if somehow the datasource "test123" is
cached somewhere? Appreciate any advice/suggestions/ideas.
Aditya.

var="#dte0">
When CF encouters the string within a <cfquery> tag,
all it does is resolve
any CF expressions (there are none in your example), and then
passes the
finalised string to the DB and patiently waits for the DB to
respond, at
which point CF converts the DB-specific result set to a CF
recordset, and
returns it to the calling code. There is very little
involvement on the
part of CF other than that: the DB does most of the work, and
is providing
all the data.
All that said, it does seem weird that one DSN returns one
thing, and
another returns something else. Is your test rig like this:
<cfquery name="dte0" datasource="test123"
SELECT getdate() dte, DATEPART(dw, getdate()) dteDW,
$$DATEFIRST dteFirst,
@@language LanguageVersion
</cfquery>
<cfdump expand="Yes" label="Query Dump" var="#dte0">
<cfquery name="dte0" datasource="test456"
SELECT getdate() dte, DATEPART(dw, getdate()) dteDW,
$$DATEFIRST dteFirst,
@@language LanguageVersion
</cfquery>
<cfdump expand="Yes" label="Query Dump" var="#dte0">
IE: both queries to each DSN within the same CF template,
executed at the
same time.
(note: you have a syntax error in your <cfdump>
statement, so that actually
*isn't* the code you're running, because it would error).
If you run the query via some other client (like Query
Analyser, or SQL
Studio), what do you get? Does it differ from what CF
presents?

WebRequest not returning correct web page

This is very strange, and I was hoping someone might have an answer/solution. If you try the link below using a Chrome browser, you will get the correct web page returned, however any other browser (and my vb.net app's WebRequest) returns a redirected
web page. I need to make my WebRequest behave the same as the Chrome browser. I changed the UserAgent to match Chrome, but that did not help. Any ideas?

Select statement not returning correct data

I'm working on an application and I'm having a weird problem. The application connects to an Oracle database, pulls out some data, and does something with it. In the process of testing I've already read and dealt with some rows. On those rows the UPDATE_FLAG field was changed to a N so they wouldn't be selected again.
I do want to select those rows again, so with SQLPlus I changed the UPDATE_FLAG back to Y. Now here's the strange part. The same select statement run from SQLPlus is returning thoe row I modified, but my application does not.
Here's the select statement:
SELECT * FROM MY_TABLE WHERE UPDATE_FLAG = 'Y' and USER_ID like 'B%';
When I run this I get a row back called Brian.
In my application I do this:
try
               Class.forName("oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver");
               Connection conn = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:oracle:thin:@server:port:sid", "username", "password");
               Statement st = conn.createStatement();
               ResultSet rec = st.executeQuery("SELECT * FROM MY_TABLE WHERE UPDATE_FLAG = 'Y' and USER_ID like 'B%'");
               System.out.println("SELECT * FROM MY_TABLE WHERE UPDATE_FLAG = 'Y' and USER_ID like 'B%'");
               while(rec.next())
                    System.out.println(rec.getString("USER_ID"));
               st.close();
          } catch (Exception e)
               System.out.println("Error -- " + e.toString());
               e.printStackTrace();
            }When this runs it doesn't return Brian and there are no exceptions caught. It's like it does not find it.
Assuming I explained this well enough, anyone have any ideas what the problem could be?
Thanks,
James

I do want to select those rows again, so with SQLPlus I changed the UPDATE_FLAG back to Y. Last time I ran SQLPlus I explicitly had to do a commit after modifications, because it was creating a transaction around the sqlplus session. Of course running a query in that session would work on the modified data rather than the actual data.
