Problem with optimiser choosing different execution path to that expected!

We have a sql statement that uses sub-query factoring, and a materialize hint in one of the sub-queries. The query runs fine for me when I do the query manually - it does the Temp Table Transformation as I expect it to (due to the materialize hint). The query runs in under 2 mins, and the explain plan says a cost of 154.
Take away the materialize hint, and I get an execution path with a cost of 149, and the query runs in just under 2 hours (!). The explain plan then contains two filter steps, listing the predicates (not exists).
The problem we're seeing is that when we run the overall process that runs the sql statement and outputs the results to file, instead of it using the materialized explain plan, it appears to be using the non-materialized explain plan, but the predicates bit just says "IS NULL". It has a cost of 149.
I suspect that the optimiser has somehow worked out that the sub-query in question actually returns no rows, and has therefore worked out a "cheaper" method of getting the results. Thing is, I run the exact same (unfortunately, not bound) query manually and it uses the materialized explain plan!
The process does run the sub-query in question on it's own, but without the materialized hint. I've done similar manually, just in case this affects things by having the results in memory, but it didn't alter the fact that I still got the materialized plan.
I'm at a loss as to how it knows that the sub-query returns no rows, and as to why the same query is effectively giving two different execution paths under the same circumstances.
Can anyone give me their thoughts as to what might be happening with the predicates bit, or any pointers as to where to look next, please?
TIA

Yes, it's the same database, so same data, same statistics, same user, etc.
This is with the materialized hint:

Problem with different execution paths in hierarchical query

Hello,
I have problems with the following query:
SELECT DISTINCT P.ID FROM PRODUCTELEMENTIMPL P WHERE ( ( LABEL = 'SomeLabel' AND PRODUCTELEMENTTYPE = 'SomeText' AND ( STATE = 'created' OR STATE = 'stored' OR STATE = 'archived' OR STATE = 'archivedRestored' ) ) ) START WITH P.ID = 42 CONNECT BY PRIOR P.ID = P.PARENT
We have two databases (an Oracle 10g XE and Oracle10g Enterprise). In the XE Database the query is executed very fast, but in the main installation it takes minutes. If I "explain" the query I get two different execution paths:
The fast:

Hello,
thank you for your replies. The indices and table schemas are the "same", but only the content for the tables was mirrored.
We made some tests with dropping and/or analyzing the tables, but it didn't change anything.
The main problem is that the query takes 33s in the productive environment for searching in a couple of rows. At the moment it's faster to make
SELECT DISTINCT P.ID, P.STATE FROM PRODUCTELEMENTIMPL P WHERE ( ( LABEL = 'SomeLabel' AND PRODUCTELEMENTTYPE = 'SomeText' ) ) START WITH P.ID = 42 CONNECT BY PRIOR P.ID = P.PARENT
and to test in the application if the state-values match ;-)
If I add the hint /*+ no_filtering */ in the test environment, I get the same "slow" execution path as in the production environment. So the question is, what prevents the filtering in "connect by"?
(I think in the fast version it filters only the results of the hierarchical query, in the slow version it first filters the whole table and joins/merge it with the hierachical result).
bye

Having the same problem with Adobe Story. Getting a warning that says "Failed to get user preference

Having the same problem with Adobe Story. Getting a warning that says "Failed to get user preferences, lost the internet connection." Any help would be greatly appreciated. Phone support was useless

Yes, me, just now! I was thinking it was because I am on a brand new computer and I did something wrong when I put itunes on it. But now I am thinking it is an itunes issue, not mine.

Problems with Syncing two different libraries on one mac

Ever since I downloaded itunes 11 onto my mac I am having problems with syncing. We have two libaries on our mac and can still easily move between the two, each keeping our own playlists, and music/podcast libaries. The problem is with the syncing to our ipods. The playlists stay separated, but unfortunately the sync update pulls both music libraries and puts it on each of our ipods. Having very different music tastes, this is a drag.
A second issue - there is still that problem of having issues with purchased music not staying in playlists (on ipod) after syncing.
I've tried looking around the itunes tutorials and articles but wasn't having luck. any feedback would be greatly appreciated.
Oh, in case it matters, one of us is using an Iphone and the other an ipod touch.

you might have to find a third party program to get those songs off her ipad onto the computer, apple doesnt support that unless they are purcahsed from itunes store because of DRM (Digital Rights Media) another word for copy write. so theres not a whole lot of hope for that, but you can always create a new user on your computer
>user>+ icon>Create new user make it admin
-if they are how ever purchased from itunes you would still make that new user, plug the device into itunes and authorize the computer by clicking store on the top of your screen where file edit and view are, Store>authorize this computer
once thats done you'll then plug that device in to the computer and on the left side of itunes you'll see devices and "Device name" the device its self, right click or control click the name and choose transfer purchases, anything that has ever been purchased of gotten for free will sync onto the computer,
you cant just simplay pull the songs off the device to the computer, doesnt work like that

Having problem with "artwork size & resolution exceeds the max that can be rasterized"

Hi all,
Ok, I created a 162.7" x 90.6" document (artboard) for an exhibition display I'm designing. The document was created using all the defaults - i think this is where i went wrong. Illustrator is now telling me that "the combination of artwork size and resolution exceeds the maximum that can be rasterized" after i open the document and when i try to add a drop shadow to anything.
Other than some vector graphics i created in illustrator, I only have 3 180ppi and 4 300ppi photos tranfered right off the photograpers camera.
I selected :
1. "Print Document" from the initial splash window.
2. I entered the artboard size, bleed and left the "Raster Effects" setting to "High (300ppi)"
I think leaving the Raster Effects setting at 300ppi is where the problem is.
Do i have to create a new document or can i fix the existing one?

nados you are a little confused that's all I think things are ll right and you are probably set to go with out going to Photoshop.
1. Your file is probably fine as is
2. Make certain you images are linked and not embedded
3. Your Images are probably ok as far as they are for the the specs required do not lower the resolution just make certain they are linked.
You may have to reimport them and in the place dialog make certain link is checked.
4. The Raster Image Effects setting is fine leave it as is.
5. The jpegs are fine lee your images as is if that was what was supplied to you and they look clean.
6. When saving the file save as .AI format and in the AI save as option dialog uncheck include linked files
(you will send them the jpegs as well as the AI file.)
7. Send the images in what ever format they are now since that is jpeg leave it be just make certain the dimensions are the same as is being used in the document at 100%.
8 Make Certain you select the text and got Type> Create Outlines before saving the file.
9 Do not export the file to any other format.
10 Send the printer production house the AI file and the Jpegs you will be fine.
You should not have a problem with this file.

No problems with 10.5.3 update - everything running as expected

But I didn't have any problems with 10.5.0, 10.5.1, or 10.5.2 either. My Intel iMac 17-inch Core 2 Duo 2.0 GHz is running great. It's my all-time favorite Mac, but second favorite Apple computer*.
As usual, my overly cautious method for installing a system update (including security updates) was to startup from my maintenance/emergency startup disk, run +Repair Disk+ in Disk Utility on my normal startup drive. Then startup normally and run +Repair Disk Permissions+. Then, finally run the system update. After it restarts, I run +Repair Disk Permissions+ again.
I've never experienced a +Mac stalls on grey screen after a Mac OS X update+ problem.
+* My favorite is still an Apple IIgs, which was my first personal computer.+

Hi Kenichi
When did this software update come out? I did a software scan on Tuesday this week and it didn't detect an OS X upgrade?
Cheers

If I ran an ios diagnostic quick test, and was not having problems with my ipod touch before can running that test harm the ipod in any way?

I chose the wrong category in support before I came to the forum (I chose service request and troubleshooting instead of using ipod with itunes, and they had me run an ios diagnostic quick test. What exactly does that do if I'm not having problems? Can that harm the files or hardware on the ipod if I'm not having any problem with my ipod and don't want to troubleshoot anything on it?

I have no idea what iOS test you are talking about,. Please provided details.
I can't imagine that the test would effect the iPod.

I am having problems with my after effects. It says that quicktime needs to be installed but it is already installed. help

i have tried everything but its not working!!! @

1. Download the .dmg file and save it to a folder on your computer.
2. Quit After Effects CS6 if it is running.
3. Double-click the .dmg file to open it, and then double-click the AdobePatchInstaller.app file to launch the patcher.
4. Follow the on-screen instructions. There might be a slight delay before the update progress meter starts moving.
im having trouble updating after effects.
im having problems with the third step. help me please

Problem with SaveAs function using random paths.

The Setup:
Part 1) I have a folder-level script that allows me to perform a SaveAs function from within forms. I do this as a way to save the document quietly in the background. The effect is that the file is overwritten by a copy of itself. The script is:
var mySaveAs = app.trustedFunction( function(oDoc,cPath,cFlName)
    app.beginPriv();
    cPath = cPath.replace(/([^\/])$/, "$1/");
    try{
        oDoc.saveAs(cPath + cFlName);
    }catch(e){
        app.alert("Error During Save");
    app.endPriv();
Part 2) From within my documents, I perform the save by calling the function below:
function runSave()
{if(typeof(mySaveAs) == "function") {
    var pathArray = this.path.split("/");
    var myFileName = pathArray[pathArray.length-1];
    var cPath = this.path.slice(0,myFileName);
    mySaveAs(this, cPath, myFileName);
} else {
    app.alert("Missing Save Function\n" + "Please contact forms administrator");
Part 3) I have several large forms that utilize an autosave to call the save function according to a time interval of 5 minutes, using:
app.setInterval(runSave(), 300000);
The Problem:
Part 1) The autosave feature works fine and it works silently in the background. However, I start to experience problems when I have two forms open at the same time. If, for example, I have a form from one folder open, and open a form from a second folder, the save feature will sometimes save the active document to it's original folder (as intended, overwriting itself and creating an autosave) or sometimes save to the second document's original folder. This leaves me with an updated (autosaved) copy of the document in the wrong folder, and a non-updated copy in the original folder. This seems to vary depending on which document I opened last and/or which document is currently active. Though I can't seem to find the right combination.
It's as thought the "this.path" is getting confused.
Part 2) Worse still, if the two documents have the same name, as is often the case with these forms, any incorrect filing when saving causes an overwrite of the second document and loss of data.
Part 3) To makes things maddening, this also happens at times when no second folder or second document is open. Instead, the misfiling saves the single, active document to a recently accessed folder. For example, I'll open a local folder and open a Word doc, close the doc and the folder, go to a different folder in a different root (a networked folder), open the form, and it autosaves to the local machine in the folder with the Word doc. So now not only do I have a non-updated copy in my correct folder, I have no idea where the updated copy was actually saved to until I come across it some time later.
Part 4) Again, worse still, the previously accessed folder might happen to be one that contains a document with the same name, and that document gets overwritten by the autosave. I'll have no idea that the form has been overwritten until I happen to open it some time later and see that it contains data from a totally different form.
What is going on and how do I stop it?
Adobe Acrobat X Pro on a PC.

Thank you, that is helpful to understand. I'd like to keep it as 3 parameters, as all my documents currently output 3 to the trusted function. And I'd still like to keep the error catch, but I'm not sure why the previous trusted function from the tutorial is no longer working, so I just want to run this by you:
safeSaveAs = app.trustPropagatorFunction(function(theDoc,thePath,theFileName){
    app.beginPriv();
    var fullPath = (thePath + theFileName);
    try {
        theDoc.saveAs({cPath:fullPath});
    } catch(e) {
        app.alert("Error During Save");
    app.endPriv();
myTrustedSaveAs = app.trustedFunction(function(theDoc,thePath,theFileName){
        app.beginPriv();
        safeSaveAs(theDoc,thePath,theFileName);
        app.endPriv();

Problem with JFile Chooser in applet. help please!!!

i am making a button for an applet that starts a JFileChooser. it works ok when i start it with the applet viewer in eclipse, but when i put my applet in HTML code and start it in a web browser the JFileChooser Doesn't start. i can click the button but it is like it does nothing. i have read on the forums that it is becouse the browser security doesnt let it execute. so how can i make it work?
here is the code for the button:
private JButton getSlikaodberijButton() {
          if (slikaodberijButton == null) {
               slikaodberijButton = new JButton();
               slikaodberijButton.setBounds(new Rectangle(0, 0, 136, 28));
               slikaodberijButton.setText("Избери");
               slikaodberijButton.addActionListener(new java.awt.event.ActionListener() {
                    public void actionPerformed(java.awt.event.ActionEvent e) {
                         JFileChooser dlg = new JFileChooser("Избери Слика");
                         if (dlg.showDialog(getContentPane(), "Избери Слика") ==
                         JFileChooser.APPROVE_OPTION){
                         strSlika = dlg.getSelectedFile().toString();
                         ImageIcon ico = new
                         ImageIcon(dlg.getSelectedFile().toString());
                         Image img = ico.getImage();
                         img = img.getScaledInstance(136, 124,Image.SCALE_SMOOTH);
                         ico = new ImageIcon(img);
                         slika=new ImageIcon(img);
                         previewjLabel.setIcon(ico);
          return slikaodberijButton;
     }

i am making this applet for a school project. the code i have sent is the only thing that is making a problem in the applet. signing an applet seems like a very long process and i read from pkwooster's link that it involves buying a certificate or forging one, placing it on the client computer, and using a dozen of tools. is there a simple way to avoid this signing or a different method to choose a file from a local computer.

Problem with ie6 displaying different to every other browser

I have just created my website and after testing with all browsers except (stupidly) ie6 it all works fine but for some reason in ie6 it displays incorrectly on this page http://www.flitecarz.co.uk/WD-Postcodes-Covered.html the part with the problem is on the right hand side where there is a quick navigation to different postcode areas. If you view it in any browser except ie6 you will see how its supposed to work.
If anyone can give me any help with this I will be forever in your debt as I have been racking my brains about this all day and I cant seem to find a soloution.
Any help with be greatly received.

Hello Nessa,
here is another argument why you don't need to mourn about a possible bad presentation in this old IE6 Browser. This browser - you can say - is no longer in use. The spread is, the statistics shows it, very very low. The attached analysis from
http://gs.statcounter.com/#browser_version-ww-monthly-201201-201202-bar
shows this clearly.
And as we already said, your website looks very well in contemporary browsers.
Don't worry, ...

Did anyone notice the problem with theme chooser??

Hello all!
Just wondering if anyone else has noticed a problem -- I have purchased a bunch of extra themes and now when you click on the theme chooser, it brings up a great little window with ALL of your available themes. However, there are no scroll arrows if you have too many themes!! As such, there are "missing" themes in the chooser, but if you scroll the mouse to the top of the screen, it will change it (although you can't see the one you pick!!). So, they ARE there, but the window for picking them is screwed up.
Any help with this? Apple??
Thanks in advance!!
--Jason

Yeah, and I've been told Apple knows about it.I think the cutoff point is about 60 themes total, then it breaks.
You can still use the actual theme chooser (what you're talking about is the themes menu, not the chooser) to change a theme by using the Choose Theme function from the Edit menu (not the New or New from theme)

Odd problem with placing text on a path

I've created a symetrical circle with the elipse tool, and with the eliptical marque tool to eventually place some repeating text around the border of a DVD. I can get the text on the path easily as I've done this before, but the problem I'm having is that the path isn't a smooth circle as it should be, and the alignment of the individual letters in the long string of text is all over the place. In other words, it doesn't smoothly follow the path. some of the characters are rotated at weird angles, and I can't seem to produce a smooth, symetrical cicle on which to place the text. Anyone run into this and know of a solution?

If that happens on the path made from Elliptical Marquee tool selection, try setting the
Make Work Path options to a Tolerance of 2.0 pixels and see if that makes a difference.

Problem with spry:choose

I have a table filled with data from an xml file and filtered
through a drop down menu. Everything works well but there are some
choices in the drop down menu that return a zero result. When that
happens I wanted to display a message instead of the table. It
works if there is a zero result which is great and the query works
perfectly for both after the first selection is made but....
Problem is the first time the page is loaded and the user
makes a selection, which does have data, both the
spry:state="loading" message and the "return a zero result message"
show during the load but disappears after the data has loaded. I
assume this is because {ds_RowCount} does initially equal zero
until the data is loaded!
Am I going about this completely the wrong way or is there a
more suitable option than {ds_RowCount} within the choose/when
statement?
The code is below:
Hope somebody can help
<div spry:region="dsLicensedSites">
<div spry:state="loading"><b>Loading
Data</b></div>
<div spry:state="ready"></div>
<div spry:choose="spry:choose">

<table class="dataTable" width="95%">

<tr>
<th spry:sort="SiteName">Site Name</th>
<th align="align">Statistical Division</th>
<th>Local Government Area</th>
<th>Statistical Local Area</th>
<th>Census Period</th>
<th spry:sort="ApprovedEGMs">Approved EGMs</th>

<tr spry:repeat="dsLicensedSites">
<td>{SiteName}</td>
<td>{StatisticalDivision}</td>

</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
</div>
<div spry:when="'{ds_RowCount}' == 0"><b>There
was no gaming in this region during the selected
period</b></div>
</div>

Just taking a quick look at your code and I noticed a few
thing first before we can give you suggestions:
1. Your Region div is not closed with a </div>
2. Your ready div should enclose the content you want
displayed, not as an empty div you have now.
Try the following:
<div spry:region="dsLicensedSites">
<div spry:state="loading"><b>Loading
Data</b></div>
<div spry:state="ready">
<div spry:choose="spry:choose">
<div spry:when="'{ds_RowCount}' != 0 ">
