Remove & Join To Domain By Batch File

Hello,
I want to make a batch file that does the:
Remove from domain
Join to doamin
All one script that
performs this
I tried to make a batch file
with the NETDOM but the thing did not work
Can anyone help?

Hi,
Please replace the netdom command with the simple Windows PowerShell cmdlets to join domain or remove the domain. Since you cannot use your batch file (containing netdom commands) on Windows 7 is that by default Windows 7 does not contain the netdom
command.
For more detailed information, please read this article:
Use PowerShell to Replace netdom Commands to Join the Domain

Remove odbc system dsn using batch file and odbcconf

I create user system dsn entries by using a batch file and odbcconf call. I've found references here on how to do that, yet cannot seem to find any results on how to remove them using that same call. The library information (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee388579(VS.85).aspx) states add and modify a system dsn for configdsn and configsysdsn and references equivalent to SQLConfgDataSource function. (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms716476(VS.85).aspx) but the config data source function has a a removal and this doesn't seem too.
Apologies for being obtuse, but I can't seem to locate it. Any links to how this is done from a batch file are much appreciated.
Regards,
NR.

John C is basically correct, you can remove a System ODBC data source via the registry, but there is apparently no way via odbcconf.exe. That is of course really stupid and poor programming!
John, however, forgot another important registry entry. That key deletion he mentioned will disable the odbc connection, but not remove it entirely. If you just do that and then open the "ODBC Data Source Administrator", you will find the
connection is still listed, but you can't remove it or modify it. It becomes completely screwed up! There is a value to delete as well which dictates if the connection is listed. Consider it the "header" to the data source.
Also, in Windows 2003 and 2008 at least, the registry key John C listed is not quite the location to modify either. This is where to find them in those OSs:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ODBC\ODBC.INI\%DSN%
or
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\ODBC\ODBC.INI\%DSN%
The "header" I reffered to is a string value in inside a key (not the whole key!)
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ODBC\ODBC.INI\ODBC Data Sources
or
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\ODBC\ODBC.INI\ODBC Data Sources
The string value is the data source name. This entry must be removed to remove the data source listing entirely.
Here are some batch snipets for creating and then removing an odbc data source. I'm leaving out some premiliary chunks, but you can figure it out from here. If you can't, you probably shouldn't be messing with this stuff in the first place!
In these scripts, I create and remove a 32-bit data source in either a 32-bit or 64-bit version of windows. The windows folder variable gets set to either "C:\Windows\System32" or "C:\Windows\SysWOW64" depending on the os. In case you didn't
know, on a 64-bit machine there is are also 2 differrent versions of the "ODBC Data Source Administrator" gui tool and the data source lists differ (32-bit vs 64-bit lists). The 32-bit version on a 64 bit OS is found at "C:\Windows\SysWOW64\odbcad32.exe".
The one in the start menu will load the 64-bit version so you will never find your 32-bit connections there.
Note - for simplicity I use the database name as the user name and and the data source name as well (in case there was any confusion).
Create the connection like so:
echo Creating 32-Bit System ODBC Connection "%DatabaseName%"...
"!WindowsFolder!\ODBCCONF.EXE" CONFIGSYSDSN "!ODBCDriver!" "DSN=%DatabaseName%;Server=localhost;Port=3306;Database=%DatabaseName%;UID=%DatabaseName%;PWD=%DatabasePassword%"
And then remove it like this:
echo Removing 32-Bit System ODBC Connection "%DatabaseName%"...
if "%WindowsBits%"=="32" (
If Exist "!TempRegFile!" Del "!TempRegFile!"
echo Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00>>"!TempRegFile!"
echo.>>"!TempRegFile!"
echo [-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ODBC\ODBC.INI\%DatabaseName%]>>"!TempRegFile!"
echo [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ODBC\ODBC.INI\ODBC Data Sources]>>"!TempRegFile!"
echo "%DatabaseName%"=->>"!TempRegFile!"
regedit /s "!TempRegFile!"
) else (
If Exist "!TempRegFile!" Del "!TempRegFile!"
echo Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00>>"!TempRegFile!"
echo.>>"!TempRegFile!"
echo [-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\ODBC\ODBC.INI\%DatabaseName%]>>"!TempRegFile!"

Run Batch File for Domain Computers on Startup

Hello,
I am trying to run a batch file I created to grab computer specs off of every computer on our domain. I have created a new GPO under my domain and under there I have the file sitting under Computer configuation>policy>windows settings>scripts>startup
and also computer configuation>policy>administrative template>system>run these programs at startup. Neither one seems to be working... I know the batch file works because I have tested it on multiple computers. Here is what the file
looks like:
@echo off
call :test >> \\10.0.2.3\users\rricks\computerinfo\%ComputerName%.log
goto :eof
:test

wmic cpu get name
I have also tried putting this file in the netlogon share folder on our DC with no luck. Let me know what Im doing wrong. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Ryan

Running a Batch file through SCCM

I have an installed Endpoint security program installed on 1800 systems in our domain. I have a batch file that is succesfully when run on a system. The batch is below. I've starred the sensitive info and path, (thing to remember is this batch
works on a target system).
REG ADD HKLM\SOFTWARE\***\***\Input /v PSUrl /d "*********" /f
REG ADD HKLM\SOFTWARE\***\***/v *******/d 1 /f
SC control *****232
SC control *****225
msiexec /x {*********************} /qn UNINSTALL_PASSWORD=******** REBOOT=ReallySuppress
Exit /B 0
The first 4 lines migrate where the software points to a new server, the second phase removed the software (permitted following the move). following the msiexec /x is the msi registry key of the software to be uninstalled.
I can see the job has been sent to the test clients and been accepted by them however thats it nothing happens after that.
Question 1 - can anyone give me a step by step of running this batch through SCCM as I'm obviously doing something wrong.
Question 2 - Which Client SCCM logs do I look in to see what happens after the batch hits the client.

Hi Jason,
Yes to all of the questions above:
Created Package; set distribution point, linled the programs (command line "programname.bat" also tried "programname.cmd"
Created advertisment and schedule targeting collection. Nothing appears in execmgr.log
Something should appear in execmgr.log. I'm assuming the client is a member of the collection, the advertisement available time has passed, and the mandatory assignment time has passed? I'm also assuming that other advertisements are working
on that client?
If so, that information should be in execmgr.log. You should be able to search for the advertisement ID and the package ID. Otherwise, no there are no special tricks to make a batch file run via SCCM advertisements. You should see that
command line launched in execmgr.log.

When triggering a UBE filter to run an external batch file, it doesn't work, although the rule is triggered.

UBE filters are not running a batch file as
an external program. The batch file is located in the postoffice spool
directory and has the correct permissions.

Change the RUN command to REJECT to check that it was actually triggered.

Background:

Example:

filter.cfg is as follows:

:Test Channel-To "ecxpert@host\.domain\.com" RUN "test.bat" 
:sendback Channel-To "ecxpert@host\.domain\.com" COPY "pvtest1@host\.domain\.com"

filter.opt is as follows:

# To parse header fields as well as envelope fields remove the comment (#) from the following 
# line. See Help for more information 
parseheader:1

test.bat resides in C:\Netscape\Suitespot\MailServer\Spool and is as follows:

date /t >> test.txt

This would be 100% correct for any Unix system, with the addition of a top line
to the script determining what shell to use. However, with NT, shell type
definition is not part of a batch file.
Correcting the UBE filter in filter.cfg to read as follows cures the problem:

:Test Channel-To "ecxpert@host\.domain\.com" RUN "cmd.exe /c test.bat"
 
:sendback Channel-To "ecxpert@host\.domain\.com" COPY "pvtest1@host\.domain\.com"

The following also works:

:Test Channel-To "ecxpert@host\.domain\.com" RUN "cmd.exe /c date /t test.txt" 
:sendback Channel-To "ecxpert@host\.domain\.com" COPY "pvtest1@host\.domain\.com"

The reasoning behind this is that batch files are scripts for CMD.EXE, the
NT Shell, and therefore cannot be executed directly. CMD.EXE has the /C
switch to run a following command, or batch file, and exit on completion.

Another solution would be to write an executable program in BASIC or any
other chosen language to perform the same functions. However, do compile it to an
executable before trying to use it since, for example, a *.BAS file will
run in Windows but it means nothing to Messaging Server.

Look at the documentation of Runtime.exec()
There are versions of that method that allow you to specify the name of an executable (the name of your batch file) and also an array of strings with environment parameters. I've never used this myself, but it should work like this (lookup the documentation!):
Runtime.getRuntime().exec("bla.bat", new String[] { "ROOTDIR=" + rootdir });

Doubt in batch file execution

Hi ,
I am execting a batch file from my code. Following after execution of batch file i need to do some manipulation with out put file that got from batch file. so wht i am doing is..
String ParseBat = "cmd /c start \"parser - running\" /MIN execute.bat \""+filePath + "\" \""+logdestn.getAbsolutePath()+"\"";
 procParse = rt.exec(ParseBat);
System.out.println(logdestn.length()); //Hereit is giving length of log file as 0. Wht i felt is it just coming to next execution line b4 the procParse = rt.exec(ParseBat); code line finishes. i used procParse.waitFor(); but still not working. can u help me regarding this.
thnx in advance.

OK, I used two classes to do this. Both are taken from the URL I posted above. The first is a util to read the streams coming from the external process.
import java.io.BufferedReader;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.InputStream;
import java.io.InputStreamReader;
* A thread to read the error stream (STDERR), in case anything went wrong.
public class ProcessStreamReader extends Thread {
 /** Our access to the incoming characters on the stream */
 private BufferedReader reader;
 /** The characters read from the stream are appended to this
 * StringBuffer. */
 private StringBuffer buffer = new StringBuffer();
 * Constructor. Builds a <code>BufferedReader</code>.
 * @param inputStream
 public ProcessStreamReader(InputStream inputStream) {
 InputStreamReader isr = new InputStreamReader( inputStream );
 reader = new BufferedReader( isr );
 /* (non-Javadoc)
 * Runs until the input stream is closed.
 * @see java.lang.Runnable#run()
 public void run() {
 try {
 // Take (and keep taking) a line from the reader. This should go on
 // until the process dies.
 String temp;
 while (null != (temp = reader.readLine())) {
 buffer.append( temp );
 } catch(IOException ioex) {
 ioex.printStackTrace();
 * @return Returns the contents of the buffer.
 public String getString() {
 return buffer.toString();
}The next is the actual program that launches the external process and reads the results back.
import java.io.File;
import java.io.IOException;
public class ExecTest {
 * @param args
 public static void main(String[] args) {
 try {
 // Configure
 String filePath = "test.data";
 File logDestination = new File("myLog.log");
 String path = "cmd /c start \"parser - running\" /MIN execute.bat \""+filePath + "\" \""+logDestination.getAbsolutePath()+"\"";
 System.out.println("> Starting process");
 Process process = Runtime.getRuntime().exec( path );
 System.out.println("> Start reading STDOUT and STDERR from the process");
 ProcessStreamReader inputStream = new ProcessStreamReader( process.getInputStream() );
 ProcessStreamReader errorStream = new ProcessStreamReader( process.getErrorStream() );
 inputStream.start();
 errorStream.start();
 System.out.println("> Waiting for the external process to complete.");
 process.waitFor();
 System.out.println("> Waiting for both reader threads to die");
 inputStream.join();
 errorStream.join();
 System.out.println("> Checking to see that there nothing was reported on STDERR");
 String errString = errorStream.getString();
 if(errString != null && errString.trim().length() > 0) {
 System.err.println("Problems occured while trying to access the external process: " + path);
 System.err.println( errString );
 System.out.println("> Checking the STDOUT coming from the process.");
 String inString = inputStream.getString();
 System.out.println(inString);
 // Check for the existance of the log file
 if(logDestination.exists()) {
 System.out.println("> Log file exists at: " + logDestination.getAbsolutePath());
 // Check the length of the log file.
 System.out.println( "> Log file length: " + logDestination.length());
 } else {
 System.out.println("> Log file wasn't created.");
 } catch(IOException ioex) {
 ioex.printStackTrace();
 } catch(InterruptedException iex) {
 iex.printStackTrace();
}I found that using the above class opened a DOS window and ran my version of execute.bat (which contained just "dir %1 > %2"). Up to that point, it wrote the following:
Starting process
Start reading STDOUT and STDERR from the process
Waiting for the external process to complete.
Waiting for both reader threads to die
Checking to see that there nothing was reported on STDERR
Checking the STDOUT coming from the process.It then paused until I closed the DOS window. At that point, it then wrote:
Log file exists at: C:\Workspace\javatests\myLog.log
Log file length: 258If I reduce the external path to:
String path = "execute.bat \""+filePath + "\" \""+logDestination.getAbsolutePath()+"\"";Then the program returns the length of the log file instantly.
If I remove all the code concerned with checking the STDOUT and STDERR streams of the external process, the same thing happens - it reads the log file length correctly.
Perhaps you could use the above code to check that your batch file is actually producing a log file? Perhaps modifying the path that you're passign to the Runtime.getRuntime().exec would help?
Cheers,
John

Batch file for IE settings

Hi everybody,
I want to make some changes to IE settings of many PCs to be able to open a tool which willl be used by all users using the systems..
Since same settings are to be applied to different systems. I want to create a batch file for it .
Settings are :
1.Go to internet Options-- security--sites--trusted sites and and the site
https://abc.com under it
2.Set security level for this zone as Low
3.Check enable protected mode
4.Go to internet options--settings--privacy and uncheck Turn on Pop-up blocker
5.Go to tools--compatibility view settings and the site
https://abc.com under it . Check option - display intranet sites
in compatibility view
I did some research on net and found that all these settings are done by changing entries in registery.
The site http://support.microsoft.com/kb/182569 gave lot of info on what various codes mean . But since I am new to creating
batch files , it does not help me in writing commands. Little more research showed me that my commands would be something like
reg add "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings" /.....................
However I cannot use trial and error as any unwanted change to registery may cause damage to my systems .
It would really be very helpful if anyone can help me with his/her expertise in batch files and reg files.
My target will be for IE8/9/10/11 preview . I am assuming the commands would be same for these versions which are comparitively new.
Thanks,
Mani

Hi,
this is a very broad topic, with quite a few scenarios, and potentially lots of complexity.
Here are some thoughts I have written down for you to consider:
Firstly, you really need to understand the basics of IE Zones, and how it is that addresses are categorised into each zone.
There are default settings for each zone, and these are initially defined by MS, but you, or the user can, and may, have changed which zone is active, in which situation.
E.g., if you are dealing with pc's in your organisation and under your control, vs pc's not in your organisation and/or not under your control.
For pc's which are in your organisation, are they used only inside your office network, or are they also used outside your office network?
Are the pc's under your control managed by Active Directory (are they members of your organisation's AD Domain?
Does your office network use a network firewall or proxy, and the pc's inside gain access to the internet by "traversing" this proxy?
Is the website you mention, "inside" your organisation's network, or, "outside" your organisation's network?
If outside, how do your organisation's pc's currently become configured for internet access?
Do they have configurations applied to the pc's, such as proxy settings? If so, does this use Proxy Auto Configuration (PAC) or INS, such as wpad.dat or proxy.pac?
Note that if you adjust site-to-zone settings, and/or settings for a particular zone, other websites which are categorised into that zone will also attract the adjusted settings, so you need to ensure that any changes you make, are suitable for those other
websites too.
Is the website address part of your organisation's domain name, or a domain name that you already have particular settings for?
Is the website/address and the content upon it controlled by your organisation?
For compatibility view, depending upon the IE browser version, there are different methods available, you may not need to adjust the browser settings if the webpages are suitably constructed:
Does the website specify <!DOCTYPE ?
Does the website supply X-UA-Compatible metatag?
You can deliver most settings for IE in a few different ways:
- AD GPO (you can use Group Policy Admin Templates, or, Group Policy Preferences)
- IEAK (you can deploy a settings package with or without deploying a version of the browser)
- registry settings (which you can deploy using scripts or batch files)
- get the user to manually apply the settings via the user interface
Note that some settings may need to be applied per-user (HKCU) and some settings are per-machine (HKLM).
If you have a multi-user or hotdesk scenario (where more than a single user, uses the same machine), this might require you to re-apply the settings for each and every user.
E.g.:
Your organisation is wanting to use a hosted web application, accessed from inside your organisation, but it is hosted outside your ogranisation.
The address is http://contoso.websales.hosterxyz.com
You examine your existing pc configurations and determine that the IE Trusted Sites zone is not currently in use by any standard configurations.
The hosted web application requires IE Protected Mode to be disabled (because of some special functions/features).
You examine the default settings of the IE Trusted Sites zone, and observe that the Trusted Sites zone already has Protected Mode disabled.
You decide to categorise the website "http://contoso.websales.hosterxyz.com" as a Trusted Site.
On a test pc, you manually add the website "http://contoso.websales.hosterxyz.com" to Trusted Sites, and test the web application is operating correctly.
You then create an AD GPO, which adds this website address into the Trusted Sites zone, and link/apply/deploy this GPO within your AD.
Your organisations computers automatically read, process and apply this GPO, and all computers are now configured for this website as a Trusted Site.
Note that if you use the "classic" GPO methods (Admin Templates), users can no longer manually adjust websites in or out of the Trusted Sites zone, because when "classic" GPO is deployed, it removes the ability for users to adjust these
settings manually.
This may be suitable for your organisation, or, unsuitable - it depends upon the degree of "freedom" you wish/need to allow.
Alternately, you could use IEAK or GP Preferences, to deploy the Trusted Sites settings - these two methods allow the end-user to manually adjust if they choose. This means the end-user can remove the settings you deployed.
Again, this may (or not) suit your scenario.

Guide to External Jobs on 10g with dbms_scheduler e.g. scripts,batch files

GUIDE TO RUNNING EXTERNAL JOBS ON 10g WITH DBMS_SCHEDULER
NOTE: Users using 11g should use the new method of specifying a credential which eliminates many of the issues mentioned in this note.
This guide covers several common questions and problems encountered when using
dbms_scheduler to run external jobs, either on Windows or on UNIX.
What operating system (OS) user does the job run as ?
External jobs which have a credential (available in 11g) run as the user
specified in the credential. But for jobs without credentials including
all jobs in 10gR1 and 10gR2 there are several cases.
- On UNIX systems, in releases including and after 10.2.0.2 there is a file $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin/externaljob.ora . All external jobs not in the SYS schema and with no credential run as the user and group specified in this file. This should be nobody:nobody by default.
- On UNIX systems, in releases prior to 10.2.0.2 there was no "externaljob.ora" file. In this case all external jobs not in the SYS schema and with no credential run as the owner and group of the $ORACLE_HOME/bin/extjob file which should be setuid and setgid. By default extjob is owned by nobody:nobody except for oracle-xe where it is owned by oracle:oraclegroup and is not setuid/setgid.
- On Windows, external jobs not in the SYS schema and with no credential run as the user that the OracleJobScheduler Windows service runs as. This service must be started before these jobs can run.
- In all releases on both Windows and UNIX systems, external jobs in the SYS schema without a credential run as the oracle user.
What errors are reported in SCHEDULERJOB_RUN_DETAILS views ?
If a job fails, the first place to look for diagnostic information is the SCHEDULERJOB_RUN_DETAILS set of views. In 10gR2 and up the first 200 characters of the standard error stream is included in the additional_info column.
In all releases, the error number returned by the job is converted into a
system error message (e.g. errno.h on UNIX or net helpmsg on Windows) and that
system error message is recorded in the additional info column. If there is no
corresponding message the number is displayed.
In 11g and up the error number returned by the job is additionally recorded in
the error# column. In earlier releases 27369 would always be recorded in the
error# column.
Generic Issues Applicable to UNIX and Windows
- The job action (script or executable) must return 0 or the job run will be marked as failed.
- Always use the full pathname to executables and scripts.
- Do not count on environment variables being set in your job. Make sure that the script or executable that your jobs runs sets all required environment variables including ORACLE_HOME, ORACLE_SID, PATH etc.
- It is not recommended to pass in a complete command line including arguments as the action. Instead it is recommended to pass in only the path to and name of the executable and to pass in arguments as job argument values.
- Scripts with special characters in the execution path or script name may give problems.
- Ensure that the OS user your job runs as has the required privileges/permissions to run your job. See above for how to tell who the job runs as.
- External job actions cannot contain redirection operators e.g. > < >> | && ||
- In general try getting a simple external job working first e.g. /bin/echo or ipconfig.exe on Windows. Also try running the job action directly from the commandline as the OS user that the job will run as.
Windows-specific Issues
- The OracleJobScheduler Windows service must be started before external jobs will run (except for jobs in the SYS schema and jobs with credentials).
- The user that the OracleJobScheduler Windows service runs as must have the "Log on as batch job" Windows privilege.
- A batch file (ending in .bat) cannot be called directly by the Scheduler. Instead cmd.exe must be used and the name of the batch file passed in as an argument. For example
begin
dbms_scheduler.create_job('myjob',
 job_action=>'C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\CMD.EXE',
 number_of_arguments=>3,
 job_type=>'executable', enabled=>false);
dbms_scheduler.set_job_argument_value('myjob',1,'/q');
dbms_scheduler.set_job_argument_value('myjob',2,'/c');
dbms_scheduler.set_job_argument_value('myjob',3,'c:\temp\test.bat');
dbms_scheduler.enable('myjob');
end;
/- In 10gR1 external jobs that wrote to standard output or standard error streams would sometimes return errors. Redirect to files or suppress all output and error messages when using 10gR1 to run external jobs.
UNIX-specific Issues
- When running scripts, make sure that the executable bit is set.
- When running scripts directly, make sure that the first line of the script in a valid shebang line - starting with "#!" and containing the interpreter for the script.
- In release 10.2.0.1, jobs creating a large amount of standard error text may hang when running (this was fixed in the first 10.2.0.2 patchset). If you are seeing this issue, redirect standard error to a file in your job. This issue has been seen when running the expdp utility which may produce large amounts of standard error text.
- the user that the job runs as (see above section) must have execute access on $ORACLE_HOME/bin and all parent directories. If this is not the case the job may be reported as failed or hang in a running state. For example if your $ORACLE_HOME is /opt/oracle/db then you would have to make sure that
chmod a+rx /opt
chmod a+rx /opt/oracle
chmod a+rx /opt/oracle/db
chmod a+rx /opt/oracle/db/bin
- On oracle-xe, the primary group of your oracle user (if it exists) must be dba before you install oracle-xe for external jobs to work. If you have an oracle user from a regular Oracle installation it may have the primary group set to oinstall.
- On oracle-xe, the extjobo executable is missing so external jobs in the SYS schema will not work properly. This can be fixed by copying the extjob executable to extjobo in the same directory ($ORACLE_HOME/bin).
- Check that correct permissions are set for external job files - extjob and externaljob.ora (see below)
Correct permissions for extjob and externaljob.ora on UNIX
There is some confusion as to what correct permissions are for external job related files.
In 10gR1 and 10.2.0.1 :
- rdbms/admin/externaljob.ora should not exist
- bin/extjob should be setuid and setgid 6550 (r-sr-s---). It should be owned by the user that jobs should run as and by the group that jobs should run as.
- bin/extjobo should have normal 755 (rwxr-xr-x) permissions and be owned by oracle:oraclegroup
In 10.2.0.2 and higher
- rdbms/admin/externaljob.ora file must must be owned by root:oraclegroup and be writable only by the owner i.e. 644 (rw-r--r--) It must contain at least two lines: one specifying the run-user and one specifying the run-group.
- bin/extjob file must be also owned by root:oraclegroup but must be setuid i.e. 4750 (-rwsr-x---)
- bin/extjobo should have normal 755 (rwxr-xr-x) permissions and be owned by oracle:oraclegroup
In 11g and higher
Same as 10.2.0.2 but additionally bin/jssu should exist with root setuid
permissions i.e. owned by root:oraclegroup with 4750 (-rwsr-x---)

If you are not using a credential and are using version 10.2.0.2 or higher or 10.1.0.6 or higher you may come across an internal error number. Here are the meanings for the internal error numbers.
274661 - can't get owner of or permissions of externaljob.ora file
274662 - not running as root or externaljob.ora file is writable by group or other or externaljob.ora file not owned by root (can't switch user)
274663 - setting the group or effective group failed
274664 - setting the user or effective user failed
274665 - a user or group id was not changed successfully
274666 - cannot access or open externaljob.ora file
274667 - invalid run_user specified in externaljob.ora file
274668 - invalid run_group specified in externaljob.ora file
274669 - error parsing externaljob.ora file
274670 - extjobo is running as root user or group

Hi Ravi,
Can you help me...
Hi All,
I planned to create a job to do rman backup daily at 04:00 AM.
1. I created a program as follows
BEGIN
DBMS_SCHEDULER.CREATE_PROGRAM(
program_name => 'rman_backup_prg',
program_action => '/u02/rmanback/rman.sh',
program_type => 'EXECUTABLE',
comments => 'RMAN BACKUP');
END;
my rman script is
#!/usr/bin/ksh
export ORACLE_HOME=/u01/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1
export PATH=$PATH:/u01/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1/bin

an_220108.dmp log=/u02/rmanback/rman_220108.log owner=rman statistics=none comp
ress=n buffer=400000
compress *.dmp
exit
2. I created a schedule as follows
BEGIN
DBMS_SCHEDULER.CREATE_SCHEDULE(
schedule_name => 'rman_backup_schedule',
start_date => SYSTIMESTAMP,
end_date => '31-DEC-16 05.00.00 AM',
repeat_interval => 'FREQ=DAILY; BYHOUR=4',
comments => 'Every day at 4 am');
END;
3. I created ajob as follows.
BEGIN
DBMS_SCHEDULER.CREATE_JOB (
job_name => 'rman_backup_job',
program_name => 'rman_backup_prg',
schedule_name => 'rman_backup_schedule',
enabled=> true,
auto_drop=> false
END;
While I am running the job I am getting the following error anybody help me.

How do I make a batch file if the .class file uses a foreign package?

I am trying to make an MS-DOS batch file using the bytecode file from the Java source file, called AddFields.java. This program uses the package BreezySwing; which is not standard with the JDK. I had to download it seperately. I will come back to this batch file later.
But first, in order to prove the concept, I created a Java file called Soap.java in JCreator. It is a very simple GUI program that uses the javax.swing package; which does come with the JDK. The JDK is currently stored in the following directory: C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_07. I have the PATH environment variable set to the 'bin' folder of the JDK. I believe that it is important that this variable stay this way because C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_07\bin is where the file 'java.exe' and 'javac.exe' are stored. Here is my batch file so far for Soap:
@echo off
cd \acorn
set path=C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_07\bin
set classpath=.
java Soap
pause
Before I ran this file, I compiled Soap.java in my IDE and then ran it successfully. Then I moved the .class file to the directory C:\acorn. I put NOTHING ELSE in this folder. then I told the computer where to find the file 'java.exe' which I know is needed for execution of the .class file. I put the above text in Notepad and then saved it as Soap.bat onto my desktop. When I double click on it, the command prompt comes up in a little green box for a few seconds, and then the GUI opens and says "It Works!". Now that I know the concept of batch files, I tried creating another one that used the BreezySwing package.
After I installed my JDK, I installed BreezySwing and TerminalIO which are two foreign packages that make building code much easier. I downloaded the .zip file from Lambert and Osborne called BreezySwingAndTerminalIO.zip. I extracted the files to the 'bin' folder of my JDK. Once I did this, and set the PATH environment variable to the 'bin' folder of my JDK, all BreezySwing and TerminalIO programs that I made worked. Now I wanted to make a batch file from the program AddFields.java. It is a GUI program that imports two packages, the traditional GUI javax.swing package and the foreign package BreezySwing. The user enters two numbers in two DoubleField objects and then selects one of four buttons; one for each arithmetic operation (add, subtract, multiply, or divide). Then the program displays the solution in a third DoubleField object. This program both compiles and runs successfully in JCreator. So, next I moved the .class file from the MyProjects folder that JCreator uses to C:\acorn. I put nothing else in this folder. The file Soap.class was still in there, but I did not think it would matter. Then I created the batch file:
@echo off
cd \acorn
set path=C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_07\bin
set classpath=.
java AddFields
pause
As you can see, it is exactly the same as the one for Soap. I made this file in Notepad and called it AddFields.bat. Upon double clicking on the file, I got this error message from command prompt:

... 12 more
Press any key to continue . . .
I know that most of this makes no sense; but that it only means that it cannot find the class BreezySwing or GBFrame (which AddFields extends). Notice, however that it does not give an error for javax.swing. If I change the "set path..." command to anything other than the 'bin' folder of my JDK, I get this error:
'java' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
Press any key to continue . . .
I know this means that the computer cannot find the file 'java.exe' which I believe holds all of the java.x.y.z style packages (native packages); but not BreezySwing or any other foreign packages. Remember, I do not get this error for any of the native Java packages. I decided to compare the java.x.y.z packages with BreezySwing:
I see that all of the native packages are not actually visible in the JDK's bin folder. I think that they are all stored in one of the .exe files in there because there are no .class files in the JDK's bin folder.
However, BreezySwing is different, there is no such file called "BreezySwing.exe"; there are just about 20 .class files all with names like "GBFrame.class", and "GBActionListener.class". As a last effort, I moved all of these .class files directly into the bin folder (they were originally in a seperate folder called BreezySwingAndTerminalIO). This did nothing; even with all of the files in the same folder as java.exe.
So my question is: What do I need to do to get the BreezySwing package recognized on my computer? Is there possibly a download for a file called "BreezySwing.exe" somewhere that would be similar to "java.exe" and contain all of the BreezySwing packages?

There is a lot of detail in your posts. I won't properly quote everything you put (too laborious). Instead I'll just put your words inside quotes (").
"..there are some things about the interface that I do not like."
Like +what?+ This is not a help desk, and I would appreciate you participating in this discussion by providing details of what it is about the 'interface' of webstart that you 'do not like'. They are probably misunderstandings on your part.
"Some of the .jar files I made were so dangerously corrupt, that I had to restart my computer before I could delete them."
Corrupt?! I have never once had the Java tools produce a corrupt Jar. OTOH, the 'cannot delete' problem might relate to the JRE gaining a file lock on the archive at run-time. If the file lock persisted after ending the app., it suggests that the JRE was not properly shut down. This is a bug in the code and should be fixed. Deploying as .class files will only 'hide' the problem (from casual inspection - though the Task Manager should show the orphaned 'java' process).
"I then turned to batch files for their simple structure and portability (I managed to successfully transport a java.util containing batch file from my computer to another). This was what I did:
- I created a folder called Task
- Then I copied three things into this folder: 1. The file "java.exe" from my JDK. 2. The program's .class file (Count.class). and 3. The original batch file.
- Then I moved the folder from a removable disk to the second computer's C drive (C:\Task).
- Last, I changed the code in the batch file...:"
That is the +funniest+ thing I've heard on the forums in the last 72 hours. You say that is easy?! Some points.
- editing batch files is not scalable to 100+ machines, let alone 10000+.
- The fact that Java worked on the target machine was because it was +already installed.+ Dragging the 'java.exe' onto a Windows PC which has no Java will not magically make it 'Java enabled'.
And speaking of Java on the client machine. Webstart has in-built mechanisms to ensure that the end user has the minimum required Java version to run the app. - we can also use the [deployJava.js|http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/technotes/guides/jweb/deployment_advice.html#deplToolkit] on the original web page, to check for minimum Java before it puts the link to download/install the app. - if the user does not have the required Java, the script should guide them through installing it.
Those nice features in deployJava.js are available to applets and apps. launched using webstart, but they are not available for (plain) Jar's or loose class files. So if 'ensuring the user has Java' is one of the requirements for your launch, you are barking up the wrong tree by deploying loose class files.
Note also that if you abandon webstart, but have your app. set up to work from a Jar, the installation process would be similar to above (though it would not need a .bat file, or editing it). This basic strategy is one way that I provide [Appleteer (as a downloadable ZIP archive)|http://pscode.org/appleteer/#download]. Though I side-step your part 1 by putting the stuff into a Jar with the path Appleteer/ - when the user expands the ZIP, the parts of the app. are already in the Appleteer directory.
Appleteer is also provided as a webstart launched application (and as an applet). Either of those are 'easier' to use than the downloadable ZIP, but I thought I would provide it in case the end user wants to save it to disk and transport the app. to a machine with no internet connection, but with Java (why they would be testing applets on a PC with no internet connection, I am not sure - but the option is there).
"I know that .jar and .exe files are out because I always get errors and I do not like their interfaces. "
What on earth are you talking about? Once the app. is on-screen, the end user would not be able to distinguish between
1) A Jar launched using a manifest.
2) A Jar launched using webstart.
3) Loose class files.
Your fixation on .bat files sounds much like the adage that 'If the only tool you have is a hammer, every job starts to look like a nail'.
Get over them, will you? +Using .bat files is not a practical way to provide a Java app. to the end user+ (and launching an app. from a .bat looks quite crappy and 'second hand' to +this+ user).
Edit 1:
The instructions for running Appleteer as a Jar are further up the page, in the [Running Appleteer: Application|http://pscode.org/appleteer/#application] section.

Error running ODI scenario from batch file

Hello, everyone!
I am loading data into Essbase 11.1.2 from MS SQL Server views using ODI 11.1.1.5.0 and Local agent. I created an interface which runs ok if launched manually from ODI.
Then I created the scenario named MyScenario for this interface and updated odiparams.bat file in *...\agent\bin* folder as follows:
set SECU_DRIVER=weblogic.jdbc.sqlserver.SQLServerDriver
set SECU_URL=jdbc:weblogic:sqlserver://<ServerName>:1433;databaseName=<DatabaseName>
set SECU_USER=<UserName for Master Repository>
set SECU_PASS=<encoded password for MasterRepository UserName>
set ODI_USER=SUPERVISOR
set ODI_PASS=<encoded password for SUPERVISOR>
set WORK_REPOSITORY=<Work Repository name>
Then I created the batch file in which I wrote: *...\agent\bin>startscen MyScenario 001 GLOBAL 5*
However the scenario is not executed with the following error message:
ERROR ODI-1132 Agent Internal encountered a warning: ODI-1414: Error connecting to agent Internal: a JDBC error occurs while connecting to the master repository. Caused by: org.springframework.jdbc.CannotGetJdbcConnectionException: Could not get JDBC Connection; nested exception is java.sql.SQLException: Exception occurred while getting connection: oracle.ucp.UniversalConnectionPoolException: Cannot get Connection from Datasource: java.sql.SQLRecoverableException: IO Error: The Network Adapter could not establish the connection
I will be very grateful for any hints!

A fundamental clarification : where is your master repository database located ? Is it on SQL Server as well ?
The MS SQL Server connection that you mentioned in the SECU_DRIVER, SECU_URL should point to the MR database.
Is the server name in SECU_URL a Fully Qualified domain name or just an IP Address reachable from localhost ?
startscen will spawn a new instance of local agent.
startcmd will reuse an existing agent (not local).
Not sure why your local agent is getting a Network Connection Error.

Anyone can tell me why it doesnt work ?... Thanks

Aside from removing the "start" or adding the title ...
Does your batfile really say "SET PATH=%PATH%;%JAVA_HMOE%\bin"? If so, I rather expect you meant to say "JAVA_HOME" and not "JAVA_HMOE".
Also, I'd be cautious about those relative paths that you're passing in to the Java program. Of course I don't know what you're doing with those in the program, but if you try to just pass those paths to a File or InputStream constructor, they're going to be relative to the current directory. And if you execute a batfile using cmd from an exec that's within a JSP ... I'm not sure what your current directory would be when the bat runs. Maybe you've checked this out and it's the right place, but if not, perhaps you have a misconception there.

Deploying a batch file via Application Manager

Hi there,
I have a batch file to remove an application that has several subcomponents that have their own installers and remove their registry keys as well. It works well when deployed as a package but I want to deploy it with the application manager to utilise the
detection methods and content management available there.
The problem is that when I deploy the package, nothing is downloaded to ccmcache, so the batch file doesn't run, although the Software Centre shows that is installed and the compliance on the collection is at 100 percent. Where is my batch file going?

Actually, there is no utility in the Package Manager that I can see for advertising software in the application Catalog, replacing or upgrading deployed applications with supersedence rules, detecting existing installations on client machines, limiting deployment
of applications to clients with requirement rules or managing the dependencies when deploying packages. Is there something missing from my installation?
Correct, none of those exist in the package feature set and there's nothing missing from your installation (there's nothing called "Package Manager" though so not sure what you are talking about there -- are you using a third party tool perhaps?) but do
you need any of those things to run a simple uninstall?
My statement was targeted at this statement of yours: "with the application manager to utilise the ... content management available there". As mentioned, there is no difference as far as content management is concerned between apps and packages. All
of the things you mentioned in the latest post have nothing to do with content management.
Mind you, I'm not saying whether you should or shouldn't necessarily use applications as apps have clear advantages, I just want to make sure the info given is correct and that you base your decisions based on that correct info.

I can't open batch files in windows 8.1

I am trying to run a batch file in windows 8.1, when i run the batch file runs at first but closes so fast that you can't see its contents, you can't even see if its doing what you tell it to. Since the file does run but closes fast, i thought of adding
pause. Adding pause did not fix the problem. I am not sure if i have to change my keys on regedit, or i have some kind of malicious software that needs to be fixed ( I think i have no malicious software, i have run security scan many times
nothing showed up, I had a Trojan horse, Trojan.Gen2, long time ago but the Trojan got quarantined?) I originally had windows 8 but upgraded to windows 8.1.
Help Please! I don't Know what to do!!!

Hi Glogikon,
"I am trying to run a batch file in windows 8.1, when i run the batch file runs at first but closes so fast that you can't see its contents, you can't even see if its doing what you tell it to."
According to my experience ,it is a normal symptom .Did the bat file run well before ?
Have you tried to run the command one by one in the bat file from a command line ?Have you tried to run the other bat files which including a output to have a check ?
If it is possible ,please post the command of the bat file here .We will make a test for you .
To check whether the bat run well ,this link may be useful:
check if command was successfull in a batch file
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/14691494/check-if-command-was-successfull-in-a-batch-file
" I think i have no malicious software, i have run security scan many times nothing showed up,"
We can try to work with the following official free tool to have a check .It is recommended to run it in a safe mode to improve the quality of the scanning.
