Oracle Workflow Erroring on Function/Shell Script

We are in the process of upgrading databases and reimported all the OWB code into the new database.
Currently our OWB mappings all seem to run ok, but when I try to run a process flow I am hitting the following error
RPE--2075: Oracle Workflow failed to process the execution request for activity LD_EDW_MAIN:F_GET_DB_NAME. This may be because dependant objects have not yet been deployed. ORA-20010
F_GET_DB_NAME is a function and I checked and I see that the function executes properly
I also hit a similar error when trying to execute a shell script.
How would I go about deploying a function or a shell script?
Im relatively new to OWB and am being "force fed" learning since we lost our main OWB colleague.
Thank you

Thanks! for your reply.
I am using this API outside the workflow.I am using this API for iExpense to approve an Expense Report. In Expenses Workflow below are the processes:
1. AP_MANAGER_APPROVALPROCESS whihc is using NON_AME_APPROVAL_PROCESS and this is using REQUEST_APPROVAL_PROCESS and under this process there is a notification APPROVAL_REQUES. Now, I am completing this ACTIVITY as Approve and I am able to do that but problem is that REQUEST_APPROVAL__PROCESS is itself not getting completed and stuck here.
Please let me know how can I achieve that.
Thansks!

RMAN errors sent to shell script calling RMAN sequence?

Hello,
I have a Korn shell script run on Solaris as the root user that launches RMAN sequences similar to this one:
#!/bin/ksh
su - oracle -c "export ORACLE_SID=ORCL; rman target / << !
<rman sequence>
I am wondering if there is a way to catch the RMAN errors in the shell script?
If I call SQLplus instead of RMAN, I can use "whenever sqlerror exit sql.sqlcode" and I will retrieve the error code in the shell script from $? - can I do such a thing with RMAN?
Thank you,
Adrian

You could capture the return code *$?* from your RMAN script and if it returns anything other than 0, then you could grep the RMAN log for errors and/or query
V$RMAN_OUTPUT after the RMAN script executes.

Hi Easyman,
sure, just have a look in $INSTALL_CONF directory. Files starting with swInst* are referencing a response file from $INSTALL_CONF/response directory. Either use a sample configuration file or add your own response file to install Oracle.

I don't know what's wrong with the script, send_file_susin.sh.
Does any know about this? Please, tell me the solution.
Thanks in advance,
Jinbae Kim.

Hi,
Posting this in case anyone else find it.
The key error here is "execve: Exec format error" .
The following things should be checked
- that the shell script is a text file has UNIX line terminators
- that the shell script is set to be executable by the user that the job runs as
- that the shell script begins with a hashbang line - e.g. #!/bin/sh (I suspect this is the problem)
For running external jobs on 10gR2 or below, refer to this post Guide to External Jobs on 10g with dbms_scheduler e.g. scripts,batch files
For running external jobs on 11g and up, please use a credential.
Hope this helps,
Ravi.

URGENT: Oracle Workflow Error: API-10020 on Creation of OWB Process Flows

I am trying to use Oracle Workflow to create Process Flows, in order to link together various mappings and components in Oracle Warehouse Builder. However, in the process flow editor window when I attempt to drag an object such as a mapping onto the editor panel, I get an error message stating the below:
API-10020: Unable to determine if the map is a PLSQL or SQLLDR map, please correct the map or choose another map.
All my maps are in PLSQL, and the language setting is set to this. I have tried modifying the langauge settings to see if it makes a difference but with no luck. My colleague believes this is a known bug in Oracle Workflow and there is a patch available to correct it.
Can anyone help with this query please? Thank you for your time.

In some versions of OWB (10.1, 10.2) The mapping property will display PL/SQL, but will actually be set to NULL in the repository (which will cause PL/SQL to be displayed as default).
The fix is easy enough: in the developer navigator, right-click on the mapping and go to configure and set the generation language first to something other then PL/SQL (you should get an error) and then place it back to PL/SQL. This should force the GUI to reset the parameter.
Alternatively, use OMB*Plus:
OMBALTER MAPPING 'MAPPINGNAME' SET PROPERTIES \
(GENERATION_LANGUAGE) VALUES ('PLSQL');
Good Luck,
Robbert

Dbms_scheduler error when running shell script

I have 2 shell scripts.
ftp_file_from_apps.sh copies a file from one server to antoher. It receives an input which is the name of the file to be copied.

Hi,
What Paul means is that you should not be using
job_action=>
'/<directory_of_script>/scp_file_to_dbs.sh v_file_name_pdf',
Instead job_action should be the name of the shell script only. So you should have
job_action=>
'/<directory_of_script>/scp_file_to_dbs.sh',
number_of_arguments=>1
enabled=>false
And then make a call to dbms_scheduler.set_job_argument_value (for each argument) and finally a call to dbms_scheduler.enable.
Hope this helps,
Ravi.

Oracle Workflow Error

Hi,
When I enter the username and password in the Oracle Workflow builder, I get the following error. Im able to login correctly from SQL*Plus, my tnsnames has the service name and other details. I can also execute the process flow in OWB. The only problem is in Oracle Workflow builder. Pls suggest how I can go about.

Did anybody faced this problem before??
Thanks,
Sam.

Its two years old . Looking at the error .. I think there are two parts to it..as far as i remember
1) I was trying to run unix script using PF and if you look carefully at the error there is reference to "C:\OraHome_1"
This was because due the OWB_HOME was not set correctly in the repository.
You can check by running service_doctor.sql in your <owb_home>/owb/rtp/sql
if you are path is not set correctly then run the set_ccs_home.sql from the same directory to set it to right path.
2) I was running it from local control center locally ..I still don't rember how i deployed it and don't have that version of OWB to test it.
But again fixing the Control Center home and starting the service on server (db target where OWB repository was installed) fixed it.
All the best :-)

Oracle linux disk and folder shell script

Hi,
Shell script that shows you how to disk , folder.

user8053012 wrote:
du -sh /data/oracle/ |sort -r -n |head -20 how to write shell script ..Are you asking how to write a shell script that will execute the command 'du -sh /data/oracle/ |sort -r -n |head -20'?
If so, just use vi to create a new file, and put the command into the file. After saving the file, be sure to use 'chmod' to make it executable.
If that's NOT what you are asking, then your second post is just as obscure as your first.

Piping the output of 'exit' to sqlplus????????? what do you expect from this?
     #Evaluating last sentence (sqlplus . . . . )
     VERROR=$?any error returned by sqlplus as $? would be a fatal error of sqlplus itself, not any error returned by processing a sql statement. If your script ord.extractor_porven.sql were to generate, say, an ORA-00001, that is NOT an error in sqlplus and so does not return to the OS as an error of sqlplus.
     #Si VERROR=0 should stop process execution and alert with echo ".."Oracle error handling before compilation time

there is no "urgent" here.
"Urgent" means one of two things -
1) people are dying, or
2) you have a customer-facing, revenue-producing production system that is down.
(And to get some perspective on the second case, keep the first in mind.)
For the first, you call whatever civil emergency service seems appropriate.
For the second, you open an SR with Oracle - which requires a paid-up support contract. For them to consider your problem "urgent", you will need to demonstrate that your problem falls under item #2. I seriously doubt your problem fits that criteria.

Getting error while running shell scripts

Hi DBAS,
I Have one requirement,i want connect n database dynamically by using dynamic password and execute some oracle commands,i written some script ,but while running i am getting error,please any one correct my error ,i am not able to getting error

Edited by: tmadugula on Mar 18, 2011 6:26 AM

Could you explain the reason for the for loop and connection attempts while incrementing var $i?
It is also no a good idea to provide a password at the command line since it can be seen with 'ps' command.
Better:
sqlplus -s <<-EOI
connect larry/$PW
etc.

Oracle Workflow Error Reporting

We are running two different "types" of workflow.
The one is our production workflow where we use a java listerner to interact between OWB3i and OWF 2.6.
The other installation uses OWB9.2 with OWF 2.6.
The problem is with the new installation...If a mapping falls over it does not report a "red block" around the process plus it does not show that the workflow is in error, even though when you click on the mapping the result is failure...
Any suggestions would be appreciated...

Hi
If you have more than one oracle homes in your system than it is possible that not in every tnsnames.ora files are configured the radardev server. Check it.

How to execute Oracle Workflow Post Notification Function

Hello All,
I have a requirement where I have to approve Expense Reports through a program rather than from notification. For the same I am using below:
wf_engine.completeactivityinternalname(itemtype=>'APEXP'
                           ,itemkey=>'4634686'
                           ,activity=>'APPROVAL_REQUEST'
                           ,result=>'APPROVE');
Now, after executing above procedure I can see that notification is approved but my workflow has not proceed to next node as I think that the function associated with notification has not executed.
Kindly help me on this that how can I approve my expense report and move the workflow to forward so that other functions will execute.
Many Thanks! in advance
Sandy

[SOLVED] Stop "foreign" error output from shell script

Hello,
I have just migrated from TrueCrypt to VeraCrypt (without issues by the way), but I have a problem with a script that I wrote.
This script is basically a shortcut for mounting a VeraCrypt volume and opening it with Dolphin; it keeps a "question" open at the command line, which, when answered with 'y', will unmount the volume.
Here is the important part of the script:
/usr/bin/veracrypt "$VERACRYPT" "$MOUNTDIR"
/usr/bin/dolphin "$MOUNTDIR"
echo "Unmount VeraCrypt volume now [y/n]?"
read ANSWER
if [ "$ANSWER" = "y" ]
then
/usr/bin/veracrypt -d "$VERACRYPT"
fi
exit 0
As you can see, it's utterly simple. My problem now is, that some system message shows up when running the command, and it somehow hides my "question":
"/org/freedesktop/UDisks2/block_devices/dm_2d0" has new interfaces: ("org.freedesktop.UDisks2.Block", "org.freedesktop.UDisks2.Filesystem")
"/org/freedesktop/UDisks2/block_devices/dm_2d0" has new interfaces: ("org.freedesktop.UDisks2.Block", "org.freedesktop.UDisks2.Filesystem")
I thought it was veracrypt or Dolphin related, and I tried adding "2> /dev/null" at the end of those commands, but it appears that this message comes from somewhere else.
Is there a way to suppress these "foreign" messages? Why does my "question" not show up anymore at all?
Thanks,
DrTebi
Last edited by drtebi (2015-02-02 23:41:39)

That worked, thanks!
I have to assume that veracrypt caused the "new interfaces" message then?
I didn't try the redirecting to stdout at first because I thought if I do that, I would not get my "question" -- but that was of course wrong, since I am not redirecting the "read" command.
Thanks for the help.
