Query on a transaction table breaks after running for sometime - Oracle 11g

Hi,
I'm running the below query to pull the sum of amount on trans table (which has 12 years of data partitioned yearly) whose last transaction date is 19-MAY-2013. The calendardatekey column is the one which is used in place of transaction date (each day has a unique calendardatekey). The query runs for couple of hours and breaks. When I contacted DBA they told that its trying to do a full table scan and pulling huge amount of data and doing a kind of sort and then breaks. Could someone please help if there is a better approach? If it works out for one day I will have to perform this for few more days.
Oracle version - 11g
trans table :
columns customerkey, programid and amount - are indexed.
card table :
column customerkey, status are indexed.
select t.customerkey, t.programid, sum(t.amount), max(calendardatekey) from trans t
where
exists (select null from card c where t.customerkey = c.customerkey and c.status = 'A')
--and t.programid = 10
group by t.customerkey, t.instprogkey
having sum(t.amount) < -100
and max(calendardatekey) =4888
Thanks for your help!

"and breaks" is totally devoid of actionable information. Surely you got an actual error message (ora-nnnnn) that you could share with us?
Sounds like your DBA is trying to avoid providing any assistance .....

RW_SERVER_JOB_QUEUE table empty after running the report in 11g

Hello,
I set up Job StatusRepository in our environment ( Fusion Middleware 11.1.1.4 Win 2008 x32) as explained in Oracle Support note "How to Setup jobStatusRepository Feature in Reports 11g? [ID 858200.1]"
The table RW_SERVER_JOB_QUEUE is always empty after running the report.
I have checked another note "RW_SERVER_JOB_QUEUE table is empty [ID 1200613.1]" but the user who is running the report is the same as the user who " the user name where you run $ORACLE_HOME\reports\admin\sql\rw_server.sql script" so there is no grant problem to write to this table.
Here is the excerpt of rwserver.conf file:
<demo:jobStatusRepository class="oracle.reports.server.JobRepositoryDB">
<demo:property value="csf:reports:repo" name="dbpassword"/>
<demo:property value="blvdev" name="dbconn"/>
<demo:property value="pdmain" name="dbuser"/>
</demo:jobStatusRepository>
I n log file there is an error:

WARNING: Opening of wallet based credential store failed. Reason java.io.IOException: PKI-02002: Unable to open the wallet. Check password.
Have anybody had the same issue in 11g?
Thanks,
Alex

Here is the solution I found and I would like to share if anybody is interested :
Check the following Oracle Support Notes:

 After applying patchset 11.1.1.4 to Reports Server, any configuration changes through Fusion Middleware Control inserts "demo:" tags in the beginning of each line in conf file of Report Server.
 The behaviour is described in the following bug :

Regarding : PKI-02002 error:
Error PKI-02002: Unable to open the wallet. Check password When Starting a Reports Server [ID 1316651.1]

After checking the wallet I simply changed the following lines

 <variable id="TMP" value="C:\Users\oracle\AppData\Local\Temp\2"/>
to
 <variable id="TEMP" value="C:\TEMP"/>

because the folder C:\Users\oracle\AppData\Local\Temp\2 was not created.

Table move after data deletion in oracle 11g

Hi,
Our previous system was in oracle 9i, And we used to archive our data in every 1 year which caused a huged number of DML operation our database. After that,we used to move our table and rebuild indexes to releases spaces. After Upgradation ,our presence system is running on oracle version 11.2.0.2. Now my question do we need to move table in 11g to release space?? Or it automatically done in 11.2.0.2???

Now my question do we need to move table in 11g to release space?? Or it automatically done in 11.2.0.2???If you move that space will be released from those extents but you wont gain any space at OS level until unless you shrink datafile. Move command will do the job.
did you see what is the free space in tablespace after moving objects?

HELP - ABAP Program Cancelled After Running for 2.5 Hours in Background

I have an ABAP report program that was being tested in our QA system and it died after running for 2.5 hours with the status of "Cancelled" (which, I assume, means it was terminated by SAP for exceeding some type of governor).

I'm not sure it was an error, per se, but maybe SAP canceled it because it had been running too long? The "DATASET_NOT_OPEN" is curious although I've no idea what it means.

Hi Teodorafrombc,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If your computer is becoming unresponsive, you may want to see if specific applications are causing this behavior. Try using the Force Quit menu to check for unresponsive applications:
Using the Force Quit feature of OS X makes an application close, even when it is not responsive.
Important: Normally you should not need to force quit an app to close it. When an app is forced to quit, any unsaved changes to open documents are not saved, so try these methods to normally close the app first:
Choose Quit from the app menu. For example, in Safari, choose Safari > Quit Safari.
Choose Quit by right-clicking or control-clicking on an app's icon in the Dock
You can find the article with these steps here:
OS X: How to quit an unresponsive application using Force Quit
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3411
If your display is going blank or seems to be going to sleep unexpectedly, try these steps first:
Reset the system
You can reset the Mac's parameter RAM and SMC.

Firefox 3.6.13 on Mac 10.6 I lose the "mouseover" capability after running for a while. Only a REBOOT of the MAC will restore.

After running for a while (hours ? days?) I lose the ability to "mouseover" data on a website and get info. Specifically on Yahoo's
portal page, I can't mouse over a news item and get a summary.
Restarting Firefox, in safe mode or normal mode, does not restore the function. Rebooting the MAC (unheard of !!) restores. What gives ?

See if this works.
Type '''about:config''' in the URL bar and hit enter.
Filter = '''print.print''' 
There are 6 prefs for headers / footers. 
'''print.print_header...''' center, left, & right 
and 
'''print.print_footer...''' center, left, & right 
You can add what you want in the '''''Value''''' column and then Restart Firefox to effect the change.

Server goes into constant Full GC loop after running for a day

This is a servlet application running under Resin, with Java hotspot 1.5_13 on Linux 64bit OS. JVM args are:

After running for a day or so, the server goes in to constant Full GC every few seconds, essentially hanging the server. Here is an excerpt of the JVM log:

From the log it seemed that the memory usage jumped by 150M to 250M within 1.5 second, even when the user traffic was very light (a couple of page views a second, vs. 10 page views a second at peak). The same app was running fine for many hours on a Windows dev machine in load testing condition with about 300M heapsize. No memory leakage was found so far. (it would be pretty unlikely to have such a large memory leakage without being noticed in dev and testing)
Thanks for any help.

A NewSize of 512m seems small for an 8G heap. This would probably cause most objects to be rapidly tenured into the OldGen heap space. (Ultimately depends on your application.) You might consider either using a NewRatio in place of NewSize/MaxNewSize or not use either and instead see how the jvm handles things itself with"-XX:+UseAdaptiveSizePolicy"
VisualVM is a good graphical tool for watching gc activity.
NewRatio=1 is the largest you can go for Eden, which will set (Eden and survivor spaces) equal to oldGen space. ie, for 8G, 4g each.
Watch activity in the gc tool, you will see "sawtooth" activity. If your sawtooth pattern does not maintain a flat profile, then you have in fact have a memory leak.

Mail quits after running for a few minutes

Mail quits after running for a couple of minutes, started doing it yesterday. I have looked at the advice given for similar problems, disk utility can find no problem with my drive, I repaired permissions anyway. No change.
Also ran the 'plutil' on the plist which came out as 'OK'.
I don't 'think' it is immediately the result of updating to 10.4.7 as it ran happily for some time after the update.
Is the only solution to trash the plist and redo all my mail accounts?
20' iMac 2.1 Ghz PowerPC G5 Mac OS X (10.4.7) 1 GB RAM

Mail probably is crashing when new junk mail arrives. Try the following in order to identify the problem:
1. Either tell Mail to go offline immediately after opening it, or shut down your Internet connection and open Mail afterwards.
2. Disable junk mail filtering in Mail > Preferences > Junk Mail.
3. Go online again.
If Mail doesn't crash now, then you know for sure there is something wrong with the junk filter. In that case, the following procedure should fix the problem:
1. Quit Mail if it's running.
2. In the Finder, go to ~/Library/Mail/.
3. Locate LSMMap2 and move it to the Trash -- deleting this file is what clicking the Reset button in Preferences > Junk Mail does. If you see an LSMMap file there, move it to the Trash too.
4. Locate DefaultCounts and move it to the Trash. This file keeps statistics about the number of messages that have been marked as junk, either automatically by the junk filter or manually by the user.
5. Locate MessageRules.plist and move it to the Desktop. This is where Mail 2.x stores all rules, including those used by the junk filter. If there is a file called MessageRules.plist.backup, move it to the Desktop too. You may also see MessageSorting.plist files there; this is where Mail 1.x stored the rules, and they are no longer used by Mail 2.x, so just move them to the Trash if you see them.
6. Look for the account folders. The name of each account folder starts with the account type (POP, IMAP, Mac), followed by the account username and the incoming mail server. Open each of the account folders, locate the Junk.mbox or Junk.imapmbox folder within it, and move it to the Trash if present.
7. Go to ~/Library/Mail/Mailboxes/. Locate any Junk.mbox folders there (their name may include the account name in parenthesis), and move them to the Trash.
Note: Messages in Junk folders with an .mbox suffix are stored locally, and will be lost forever as a result of doing steps 6 and 7. If there is a chance that you have legit messages there and you want to preserve them, move them to another mailbox in Mail first (you may prevent Mail from crashing by shutting down the Internet connection or telling Mail to go offline immediately after opening it). Messages in Junk folders with an .imapmbox suffix are stored on the server and can be ignored (Mail will rebuild those mailboxes automatically).
8. Open Mail. As a result of removing the rules file, the junk filter will be disabled now. You may want to either tell Mail to go offline immediately after opening it, or shut down the Internet connection before opening Mail, to prevent it from downloading anything until the junk mail filter has been enabled again.
9. Go to Mail > Preferences > Junk Mail, enable junk filtering, and configure it however you wish.
10. Go online again if you went offline in step 8.
If the above solves the problem and you don't have any rules you'd like to preserve or recreating them is not a daunting task, just delete the MessageRules.plist files that were moved to the Desktop and be done with it.
Note: For those not familiarized with the ~/ notation, it refers to the user's home folder. You can easily locate any of the folders referred to in this post by copying the file path here, doing Go > Go to Folder in the Finder, and pasting the file path there.

Sounds like they are not getting logged in at all, so they are never getting to the point where they can change the password, but we need to see more detail to give a better answer (an example or copy-paste of a sqlplus session might help)

Vi locks up after running for days

I have some old code written in LV 7 that I ported over to 2011. After fixing the legacy issues with DAQ and a save routine I ran it and it worked fine. Three days ago it was started in order to record TC data and this morning is froze/crashed. The other code which I did the same to runs for months with no incident. I checked for files becoming large with nothing out of the ordenary. Before re-launching LV and the vi I started WinDbg to record a dump file. Anyone have any ideas or ran into a simular problem.

Hello teslac,
Did you also update your OS or PC when migrating to LabVIEW 2011? Nothing specific stands out based on your comments, but those changes would also be worth evaluating. WinDbg is certainly a good idea. Additionally:
-Are you using LabVIEW 2011 or 2011 SP1? 32- or 64-bit?
-What OS is this? What bitness?
-Is this running in the LabVIEW development environment or is it compiled into an executable running on the machine?
-Did the application crash and close, or just become unresponsive?
-If the application did crash, a log file should have been generated by the IDE or runtime engine. If you have that available, I'd recommend posting that here as it may give some insight to the issue.

Tom L.

..is the "THE" operator still supported?
I know this was the case in Oracle 8i, but later?... you can try using the "TABLE" operator instead.

Why is it accessing A: drive if left running for sometime?

If the studio is left running for a while , it seems to miss the project folder and start looking at A: drive - Are the volumes dismounted automagically or is it a feature known in the early release?

So, I discovered something new about iTunes today. The "Restore from backup" context menu option that appears when you click your iOS device in the Devices tree on the left of iTunes, is different from the "Restore" button that you get on the Summary tab for your device.
"Restore from backup" just does an restore from backup. Whereas the Restore button does a restore and then restore from backup. Make sense? Hmm.
This distinctly different functionality is not clear to the user, indeed the advice I was given above was to "Restore from backup", which in this instance is not what is needed to clear out the "Other" data.
In summary, to fix my problem I:
- performed a complete Backup (from iOS Device context menu)
- performed a Restore (clicked Restore button on Summary tab)
- after device is reset with latest iOS software, chose latest backup
My other data shrank to 0.2Gb, and as an added bonus another 1.4 GB of other space was freed up from Apps and Video, even though I can't find anything missing, so I suspect there was other non-"Other" data that was cleared out by this procedure.
