I have deployed fop.war with apache tomcat. When i reduce the select, it will work.
After searching against this error i found that the length should be lower than 32k.
So i have tested my select with this above and the regular length is 7154.
So, what reason throws this error ?
Any ideas ?
Thanks for help.

no not yet with Application Server.
I have tried to compare the settings to another installation with a separeted oc4j as described in the howto. But at the moment i found no mistakes.
If i call the url adresse like:
http://localhost:18101/fop/apex_fop.jsp
i get:
500 Internal Server Error
Servlet error: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: fop.apex__fop
I installed it another time with these settings:
Web Anwendung= .../fop.war (selected war file from apex install directory)
Anwendungsname= fop
URL zuordnen= /fop
I would like to know if its possible to use the fop.war out of apex install directory with the Application server? In the standalone version (as described in howto) it works. But if you install it there you don't need to define an URL.
Is the URL /fop correct or what do i have to insert there?

PDF Printing with FOP 0.94

Hi,
are there any examples about printing apex report with FOP 0.94?
Thanks,

Hi!
I am trying to get this solution working on a LINUX system using TOMCAT 6.0.18 rather than OC4J which we don't have a license for. I have tried both FOP 0.94 and 0.95 and seem to get similar problems. Here is the error message:

PDF Printing with FOP/Apache Tomcat/J4LFOPServer in windows

Hi everyone,
I have been learning to create pdf report with Apex 4.2 and BI Publisher 10 which I have been successful with. Now I like to learn how to create pdf reports using FOP thinking of the customers who will not spend money on BI Publisher. I have gone through the documents and procedures described in Java 4 Less. http://www.java4less.com/apache/fop.php and http://www.java4less.com/fopdesigner/fodesigner.php?info=apex. Configured Apex instance setting accordingly.
For default layout a tabular pdf report is created.
I have created an xsl-fo file named Formatted_report.fo on same query and xml file from report query with BI Desktop. But when I try to print a formatted output with Formatted_report.fo report layout it does not work(J4LFOPServer ). but same layout with .rtf template works fine (BI Publisher Print Server).
Please help

hi,
if you use the J4lFOPServer as you write, you can set it in debug mode as described here:
http://www.java4less.com/apache/fop.php?info=faq#debug
you will then see the XML data and the FO data in the server window. Maybe you can see there if there is an error and that can help you fixing it.

Printing with FOP within BC4J

Hello,
does anyone get a FOP integration to work within a BC4J application (Jdev 9.0.3)?
My issue:
When starting my PrintProcess class from a stand-alone class(static void main) everything works fine (incl. creation of a PDF document).
The same method called within my BC4J application causes
a nullpointer-Exception while transforming the same XML.
I double-checked the sort order of my selected libraries, but with no success.
Here is the stack trace:

Does JDeveloper use a different XML parser when running the application on the embedded OC4J server?
How can I set-up the embedded server to use the required XML parsers from XALAN (if this is the error) instead of this from Oracle?
I appreciate every tip,
Stefan

Hello All, we are developing an application to list in PDF format the contents of a data base. We are using FOP and it works perfectly with a TomCat server in a PC, but when running it in BC4J it gives an almost identical error you guys describe in your mails. But we get an additional one .

I guess the second error should be solved changing the system parameter to set xerces as the XML parser, but what about the error
XSL-1110: (Fatal Error) Invalid StreamResult set in TransformerHandler.
Has anyone got this eror in a BC4J ? Could anyone please help us ?

Pages crash in Portal (ORA-06502)

Hi! I have a little problem with Portal pages. Sometimes a page with its subpages crashed with follow error : " ORA-06502 PLSQL: numeric or value error".
Does anybody know why this happaned?

Hi Mark
Sorry for the delay. Not sure I can provide the immediate comfort that you're looking for either.
What I can say is that dropping and recreating the Text indexes almost certainly won't affect this.
We'd need more details to figure out what's going on here. The best way to do this is for you to contact Oracle Support. They should be able to help you to get the problem solved.

Apex with XE10g/Tomcat 6.0.13 PDF Print with Apex FOP.WAR

Apex with XE10g/Tomcat 6.0.13 PDF Print with Apex fop.war/apex_fop.jsp
Hello,
Excuse me bad english.
I have a problem with Oracle XE and Printing from Reports over Tomcat 6.0.13.
I have update Oracle XE with Apex 3.1 and it works fine.
Now i have tried to Print a report to PDF. So i have deployed the FOP.WAR from Apex Utilities under Tomcat.
I see in Tomcat Manager http://localhost:8888/manager/html/list that the FOO
has been deployed and is running.
If i try to print then i get this Message down to this page.
Can anybody give me a hint to solve this problem???
Hint
To resolve the problem i have installed Oracle OC4J with same Port and deployed
the same foo.war file.
Then works and all printing from Oracle Apex work fine and okay.
So i thing the Apex and Oracle work correct.
But we have a small Application so i would prefer to work with Tomcat a application Server.
Becaus of previous Errors have copied some *.jar files to C:\tomcat6.0.13\lib
but i thing this is not the Problem.

PDF printing with oc4j apache fop not working

I am configuring PDF printing in Apex 3.1.1. I have set up a shared component report query with a simple query. I have implemented the oc4j standalone and implemented the fop.war as specified in the "pdf printing in Apex" documentation. When I use the test button to verify the output of the report, I am redirected to a 404-page not found and the oc4j instance logs the following:

Help us to help you. When you have a problem include as much relevant information as possible upfront. This should include:
<li>Full APEX version
<li>Full DB/version/edition/host OS
<li>Web server architecture (EPG, OHS or APEX listener/host OS)
<li>Browser(s) and version(s) used
<li>Theme
<li>Template(s)
<li>Region/item type(s) (making particular distinction as to whether a "report" is a standard report, an interactive report, or in fact an "updateable report" (i.e. a tabular form)
And always post code wrapped in <tt>\...\</tt> tags, as described in the FAQ.
Thanks

ORA-06502: PL/SQL with Oracle XE (not with sqldeveloper)

I have this error message with Oracle XE whereas I have no message at all with the same request if I use sqldeveloper.
It seems that the error happens when there is too many information returned by the request. If I add a "where" to select less rows, I don't have the error anymore.
Do you know how I can solve this problem?
Thanks in advance for your answers.
Richard

The problem is happening again.
When it happens, if I quit and I start again Oracle XE, the problem does not happen at first, but happens again after a while (the duration before the error is not always the same). If I increase the number of lines that are printed for the result of a request, I can induce the error; if I decrease the number of lines, the error is not happening.
Here is one of the request (that request returns about 5000 rows) that cause the error, and the complete error message:

Problem with error ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error string

Hi,
I am running a loop to just spool output data using 'dbms_output.put_line' and I keep getting this error after a few records. I resorted it and it happen at a different interval. Could it have to do with the length of the item I am trying to spool? Thanks.

ORA-06502: error when inserting into table via db link with long datatype

Folks,
I am getting the following error:
ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: character string buffer too small.
This occurs when an insert is done via a database link into a table that has a LONG data type for one of the columns, and the string contains some carriage returns and or line feeds.
I have checked by removing the db link, and inserting into a local table with identical column data types, where there is no error.
So this might be another db link bug?
So I need to remove the carriage returns and/or line feeds
in my pl/sql block in the page process. I have tried
l_text := REPLACE(l_text, CHR(10), ' ');
l_text := REPLACE(l_text, CHR(13), NULL);
but still getting the ORA-06502. Would really appreciate some advice here, please.
Cheers
KIM

Scott,
Time to 'fess up':
My fault sorry, the error was coming from another page process where I had allowed insufficient string length for one of the variables, and my error message did not identify the page process clearly.
This leads me to make a request for future releases, could the system error messages state which page process caused the problem?
One other thing I notice, and this might be a feature not a fault, the page processes are numbered: "Page Process: 3 of 5". However process 3 is not the 3rd one to be processed, and probably refers to the order in which they are created. Should the number reflect the process order?
Cheers

APEX 5.0. Report with image stored in a BLOB gives ORA-06502.

Hi,
I want to create an Interactive Report - Desktop with an image in which is stored in a BLOB but it returnes a: ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: character to number conversion error.
I have created a test report with only the image (billed - which is a BLOB) and an ID (the PK - a number from a sequence)
select ID, billed from foto
I have tried with and without a formatmask for the ID '999999999999999' and the Type as Plain text as there seems not to be a better choice..
For the 'billed' Type is 'Display Image' and the 'Table Name' and 'BLOB Column' are set. 'Primary Key Column 1' is set to ID. 'Mime Type Colomn' points to a field that contains 'image/jpeg' as the stored image is a photo in jpg.
The image displays OK from a Forms application.
DB is a 11.2.0.4 on Linux 6.6 and APEX is 5.0
What have I missed?
Thanks,
Dino

As described in the documentation, the report query must select the length of the BLOB column, not the column itself:
select id, dbms_lob.get_length(billed) billed from foto

Problem with ORA-06502 when exp/imp between two identical versions

Hi
I have two identical systems, one system that I develop on and
the test system. The two systems have the same version of the
Portal. When I export and then import the application from the
systems I get a error message on the test system.
ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: character to number
conversion error (WWV-11230)
This error does not appear on the developing system.
The application I have is a form on a table, and I have some
buttons with PL/SQL handels on them. I tried to remove this code
and export with no luck.
Please help.
The system:
Windows NT
Oracle Portal 3.0.8.9.8
Thanks
Jvrgen Swensen

Could you pls confirm : Have you exported & Imported the shared
components used by that form?
If you are not too worried about the templates/fonts then try
this:
Click on "Edit" link against that form and click "OK".
Thanx,
Chetan.

ORA-06502 When using MAX(Column) with %TYPE

Hi Guys,
Just had this discussion on the main database forums, and the problem was somewhat resolved. But they did ask me to check here if this was a known issue.
Assuming I have a table defined as follows
CREATE TABLE TEST_TABLE (TEST_COLUMN CHAR(8 BYTE)) ;and the table only has a single record NZ07100S
We also define a function as
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION
FUNCTION GETTESTVALUE
RETURN TEST_TABLE.TEST_COLUMN%TYPE
IS
TEST_VALUE TEST_TABLE.TEST_COLUMN%TYPE;
BEGIN
SELECT MAX(TEST_COLUMN) INTO TEST_VALUE FROM TEST_TABLE;
RETURN TEST_VALUE;
END;We ran the following command
SELECT GETTESTVALUE FROM DUAL;and receive an error as follows
Error report:
SQL Error: ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: character string buffer too small
ORA-06512: at "GETTESTVALUE", line 6
06502. 00000 - "PL/SQL: numeric or value error%s"However, if were to modify the function to the following
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION
FUNCTION GETTESTVALUE
RETURN TEST_TABLE.TEST_COLUMN%TYPE
IS
TEST_VALUE TEST_TABLE.TEST_COLUMN%TYPE;
BEGIN
SELECT TEST_COLUMN INTO TEST_VALUE FROM TEST_TABLE;
RETURN TEST_VALUE;
END;There is no error reported and the value NZ07100S is returned.
Of course, when we modified the function to be
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION
FUNCTION GETTESTVALUE
RETURN TEST_TABLE.TEST_COLUMN%TYPE
IS
TEST_VALUE TEST_TABLE.TEST_COLUMN%TYPE;
BEGIN
SELECT CAST(MAX(TEST_COLUMN) AS CHAR(8))INTO TEST_VALUE FROM TEST_TABLE;
RETURN TEST_VALUE;
END;No errors are reported, and the value is returned
Some of the guys in the main forums tried this out on Enterprise edition and did not encounter any issues. To faciliate their testing, I spooled the sqlsplus output and it is as follows

SQL> spool off;Now, I can't change the production (Enterprise Edition) schema. The XE is being used by the developers for their local testing. As such, knowing that the problem does not occur on Enterprise, I can ask them to make the changes locally to their XE for their local testing.
However, I was just wondering, does anyone know if this is a known issue with Oracle XE ??
Thanks and regards
Jega

Hi Jega,
thank you for your post.
Don't know is this issue XE release specific issue or 10.2.0.1 generally?
Anyway, already 10.2.0.3 is patched - as you can see, even selecting from XE through PE102030 working OK:

Deploying the fop.war file for PDF printing

I suppose this should maybe be in the App server thread but im following instructions from here to enable PDF printing in APEX
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/apex/application-express/configure-printing-093060.html#05
The instructions are a bit out of date but
I navigate to the OC4J home > select applications > Deploy WAR file
browse for the fop.war file on local machine
for Application Name i have ApexFOP
for Map to URL I have /apex/fop
then I click Deploy
it says succesfully loaded but when I click on the ApexFOP in the Deployed applications list it says not loaded
I have re-started the OC4J
any help would be very gratefully recieved , I'm going nuts trying to do this
Cheers

I copied an existing working structure and this worked for me.
