ResultCount in QUERY_STRING variable

Hello,
UCM 11g.
We have below string which creates the URL and takes the searched query.
*<$HttpCgiPath$>?<$QUERY_STRING$>&IsJava=1&MergeInclude=spreadsheet_search_results$>*
I have observed in firebug, "QUERY_STRING" replaces with many query string values and one of them is a "ResultCount=50". Can we increase the "ResultCount"???? I need to configure it for >2k ResultCount.
Thanks in Advance,
MAK

Hello Guys,
Just resolved it.
We have explicitly added ResultCount paramenter at the end of the string.
<$HttpCgiPath$>?<$QUERY_STRING$>&IsJava=1&MergeInclude=spreadsheet_search_results*&ResultCount=2000*$>
This will give resultCount = 2000.
Thanks,
MAK

Session variable not passing between pages

Hi, I've got a form that calculates checkbox values and puts them in a total field called txtTotal. When the user clicks send, I need to pass the total to a payment page. The form page has PHP
session_start();
$_SESSION['sessTotal'] = $_POST['txtTotal'];
and the payment page has
session_start(); at the top of the page and <?php echo $_SESSION['sessTotal']; ?> where I want the total to display. The total does not carry over to the payment page and I can't work out why.
Here is all the PHP from the form page as I'm pretty new to PHP and not sure if there's a conflict (should session_start appear more than once?) Thanks guys
<?php require_once('Connections/df.php'); ?>
<?php
//initialize the session
if (!isset($_SESSION)) {
session_start();
$_SESSION['sessTotal'] = $_POST['txtTotal'];

$row_userDets = mysql_fetch_assoc($userDets);

?>

OK I got it. I needed
session_start();
$_SESSION['sessTotal'] = $_POST['txtTotal'];
on the payments page as well, not just session_start();

Passing variable from html to flash

Hi I have built a flash movie with buttons...depending on
which button is clicked it loads a different flash movie due to
variable setting. I am able to set and call the variable s in flash
fine
But now i have an html page that needs to blend with this
flash...So i created buttons on my html page to look like the
flash...But when i click a certain button i want it to know the
variable going into the flashpage and load correct movie...not just
go to the beginning of my flash movie then user will have to choose
the button again...
How can i do this?
thank you in advance
reno

well, between the post to forum and this link below i got
this to work for me
Just needed to know about the javascript....along with
putting the value/variable in url as posted..thanks

Stored Procedure with bind variables

Hello,
I have problems when executing this sample code:
Procedure Test (..., in_Param IN CHAR, ...)
Query_Str := 'Select * from Table1 where column1 IN :in_Param';
Open Cursor1 For Query_Str Using in_Param;
This Cursor retuns rows when in_Param is 'A'
This Cursor does not return any row if in_Param is ('A', 'B')
Can you please help to track the error in this Query?
Many thanks

It seems to be that the bind variable is treated as a single discrete object. Hence
'Select * from Table1 where column1 IN :in_Param';
is functionally the same as
'Select * from Table1 where column1 = :in_Param';
so when in_Param is ('A', 'B'), what actually gets executed is
Select * from Table1 where column1 = 'A, B';
Not surprisingly this returns no rows.
You can of course do this:
'Select * from Table1 where column1 in( :x, :y, :z)';
Open Cursor1 For Query_Str Using :i, :j, :k;
So you could parse in_param yourself, populating the unused variables with nulls, so that if in_param = ('A, B') then i=A, j=B and k=null. Given that in 8i an IN string can have 1000 variables this could be a right mare if you don't put a cap on in_param.
Your alternative is not to use a bind variable for this statement.

How to get system Environment variable?

How to get system Environment variable without using jni?
just like "JAVA_HOME" or "PATH"...
Any reply is help to me!! :-)

Thx for your reply...
I get it!!!
Read environment variables from an application
Start the JVM with the "-D" switch to pass properties to the application and read them with the System.getProperty() method. SET myvar=Hello world
SET myothervar=nothing
java -Dmyvar="%myvar%" -Dmyothervar="%myothervar%" myClass
then in myClass String myvar = System.getProperty("myvar");
String myothervar = System.getProperty("myothervar");
This is useful when using a JAVA program as a CGI.
(DOS bat file acting as a CGI) java -DREQUEST_METHOD="%REQUEST_METHOD%"
-DQUERY_STRING="%QUERY_STRING%"
javaCGI
If you don't know in advance, the name of the variable to be passed to the JVM, then there is no 100% Java way to retrieve them.
NOTE: JDK1.5 provides a way to achieve this, see this HowTo.
One approach (not the easiest one), is to use a JNI call to fetch the variables, see this HowTo.
A more low-tech way, is to launch the appropriate call to the operating system and capture the output. The following snippet puts all environment variables in a Properties class and display the value the TEMP variable. import java.io.*;
import java.util.*;
public class ReadEnv {
public static Properties getEnvVars() throws Throwable {
Process p = null;
Properties envVars = new Properties();
Runtime r = Runtime.getRuntime();
String OS = System.getProperty("os.name").toLowerCase();
// System.out.println(OS);
if (OS.indexOf("windows 9") > -1) {
p = r.exec( "command.com /c set" );
else if ( (OS.indexOf("nt") > -1)
|| (OS.indexOf("windows 2000") > -1 )
|| (OS.indexOf("windows xp") > -1) ) {
// thanks to JuanFran for the xp fix!
p = r.exec( "cmd.exe /c set" );
else {
// our last hope, we assume Unix (thanks to H. Ware for the fix)
p = r.exec( "env" );
BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader
( new InputStreamReader( p.getInputStream() ) );
String line;
while( (line = br.readLine()) != null ) {
int idx = line.indexOf( '=' );
String key = line.substring( 0, idx );
String value = line.substring( idx+1 );
envVars.setProperty( key, value );
// System.out.println( key + " = " + value );
return envVars;
public static void main(String args[]) {
try {
Properties p = ReadEnv.getEnvVars();
System.out.println("the current value of TEMP is : " +
p.getProperty("TEMP"));
catch (Throwable e) {
e.printStackTrace();
Thanks to W.Rijnders for the W2K fix.
An update from Van Ly :
I found that, on Windows 2003 server, the property value for "os.name" is actually "windows 2003." So either that has to be added to the bunch of tests or just relax the comparison strings a bit: else if ( (OS.indexOf("nt") > -1)
|| (OS.indexOf("windows 2000") > -1 )
|| (OS.indexOf("windows 2003") > -1 ) // works but is quite specific to 2003
|| (OS.indexOf("windows xp") > -1) ) {
else if ( (OS.indexOf("nt") > -1)
|| (OS.indexOf("windows 20") > -1 ) // probably is better since no other OS would return "windows" anyway
|| (OS.indexOf("windows xp") > -1) ) {
I started with "windows 200" but thought "what the hell" and made it "windows 20" to lengthen its longivity. You could push it further and use "windows 2," I suppose. The only thing to watch out for is to not overlap with "windows 9."
On Windows, pre-JDK 1.2 JVM has trouble reading the Output stream directly from the SET command, it never returns. Here 2 ways to bypass this behaviour.
First, instead of calling directly the SET command, we use a BAT file, after the SET command we print a known string. Then, in Java, when we read this known string, we exit from loop. [env.bat]
@set
@echo **end
[java]
if (OS.indexOf("windows") > -1) {
p = r.exec( "env.bat" );
while( (line = br.readLine()) != null ) {
if (line.indexOf("**end")>-1) break;
int idx = line.indexOf( '=' );
String key = line.substring( 0, idx );
String value = line.substring( idx+1 );
hash.put( key, value );
System.out.println( key + " = " + value );
The other solution is to send the result of the SET command to file and then read the file from Java. ...
if (OS.indexOf("windows 9") > -1) {
p = r.exec( "command.com /c set > envvar.txt" );
else if ( (OS.indexOf("nt") > -1)
|| (OS.indexOf("windows 2000") > -1
|| (OS.indexOf("windows xp") > -1) ) {
// thanks to JuanFran for the xp fix!
p = r.exec( "cmd.exe /c set > envvar.txt" );
// then read back the file
Properties p = new Properties();
p.load(new FileInputStream("envvar.txt"));
Thanks to JP Daviau
// UNIX
public Properties getEnvironment() throws java.io.IOException {
Properties env = new Properties();
env.load(Runtime.getRuntime().exec("env").getInputStream());
return env;
Properties env = getEnvironment();
String myEnvVar = env.get("MYENV_VAR");
To read only one variable : // NT version , adaptation for other OS is left as an exercise...
Process p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("cmd.exe /c echo %MYVAR%");
BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader
( new InputStreamReader( p.getInputStream() ) );
String myvar = br.readLine();
System.out.println(myvar);
Java's System properties contains some useful informations about the environment, for example, the TEMP and PATH environment variables (on Windows). public class ShowSome {
public static void main(String args[]){
System.out.println("TEMP : " + System.getProperty("java.io.tmpdir"));
System.out.println("PATH : " + System.getProperty("java.library.path"));
System.out.println("CLASSPATH : " + System.getProperty("java.class.path"));
System.out.println("SYSTEM DIR : " +
System.getProperty("user.home")); // ex. c:\windows on Win9x system
System.out.println("CURRENT DIR: " + System.getProperty("user.dir"));
Here some tips from H. Ware about the PATH on different OS.
PATH is not quite the same as library path. In unixes, they are completely different---the libraries typically have their own directories. System.out.println("the current value of PATH is: {" +
p.getProperty("PATH")+"}");
System.out.println("LIBPATH: {" +
System.getProperty("java.library.path")+"}");
gives the current value of PATH is:
{/home/hware/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/xpg4/bin:/opt/SUNWspro/bin:/usr/ccs/bin:
/usr/ucb:/bin:/usr/bin:/home/hware/linux-bin:/usr/openwin/bin/:/usr/games/:

DDocName in the resultset gets higher preference than local variable: unable to set dDocName in the binder using Idoc Script

Hi,
I have the following code built using idocScript
<$dDocName=variableName$>
<$executeService("DOC_INFO_BY_NAME")$>
Note: variableName has value of contentID for which "DOC_INFO_BY_NAME" has be executed.
When i execute this, i see that DOC_INFO_BY_NAME is getting executed for previous content ID that "dDocName" was holding. In other words, following assignment
<$dDocName=variableName$>
Is not taking effect.
I think the value is not getting updated in the binder. How do i correct this.
This is little urgent, Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks and Regards,
Seshan K.

MM_Username Variable

Hi. I hope someone can help as I've been struggling with this
for a few weeks.
On the first php page I have the user register and log in
automatically. On the 2nd php page i want to greet the username but
the MM_Username variable won't appear on the screen. I'm using
Apache2 as the testing server. Where am I going wrong?
Here's the code:-

<?php require_once('Connections/registration.php'); ?>
<?php
if (!function_exists("GetSQLValueString")) {
function GetSQLValueString($theValue, $theType,
$theDefinedValue = "", $theNotDefinedValue = "")
$theValue = get_magic_quotes_gpc() ? stripslashes($theValue)
: $theValue;
$theValue = function_exists("mysql_real_escape_string") ?

Need help with $_GET and $_SERVER['QUERY_STRING']

Hello,
What I have is a search, and if a user clicks sort by type, sort should be added to the end of the query string. For some reason its not working. It's probably a simple problem but I'm stuck. What I have is a long query with search information. And then a button in a form.
$editFormAction = $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'];
if (isset($_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'])) {
$editFormAction .= "?" . htmlentities($_SERVER['QUERY_STRING']);
<form action="<?php $editFormAction; ?>" method="get" id="change_order" name="change_order">
<input name="sort" type="button" value="TV_Type" />
</form>
What happens when the button is clicked is the search query is replaced by "?sort=TV_type" instead of being added on to the end of the existing query. Please help.
Thanks,
Kelsey

Are u searching data in database? If that so then u need to do search query. If u want to display the result in the same page, filter the data by using Form Variable in Recordset(using $_POST instead of $_GET).

Help with redirect using an HTML content variable

Hi All,
I have created an update_user page to update records in the
table, and
when submitted I want to be redirected to another "page". I
really only
have one page, an admin.php page, with one of the div's named
"main".
It uses the HTML content variable to replace the include file
based on
its name:
> <?php
> if (!isset($_REQUEST['content']))
> include("main.inc.php");
> else
> {
> $content = $_REQUEST['content'];
> $nextpage = $content . ".inc.php";
> include($nextpage);
> } ?>
So what I want to do now is redirect to something like the
following:
admin.php?content=userList
I have tried replacing the value of the variable $updateGoTo
shown below
to include the content variable as shown above, but it
doesn't work. So
I think I'm not understanding the code below and that's
preventing me
from accomplishing what I want.
> $updateGoTo = "admin.php";
> if (isset($_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'])) {
> $updateGoTo .= (strpos($updateGoTo, '?')) ? "&" :
> $updateGoTo .= $_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'];
> }
> header(sprintf("Location: %s", $updateGoTo));
Can someone explain to me what the above code is doing, and
what I need
to do to accomplish my task?
Many thanks.

Micha,
Thanks for your replies.

Why does the relative link work on my testing server as I had
it listed
before? Making the link absolute isn't any great problem, so
I'll just
do it.

Thanks for the pointer, I'll use $_GET instead. This is a
password
protected area that is only accessible to trusted users with
admin
privileges, so I would think they would be safe. However, on
the public
side I'll consider creating an allowable list for all HTML
variables.
Thanks.

Problem in setting TNS_ADMIN variable for REPORTS10g

Hi,
I am trying to setup web reports using rwservlet on tomcat server. I have set the required environment variables as in documentation including TNS_ADMIN but the servlet is not picking up the value and using the default tnsnames.ora file instead.
This is causing problems as i cannot make an entry to the default file and we keep the tnsnames.ora file on a separate location.
Also, can i place rwservlet.properties file at a different location than $REPORTS_HOME/reports/conf directory?!!!
The response of : http://loncrmappu1.uk.db.com:7700/demo/rwservlet/showenv/?server=loncrmappu1_10g_server gives me the below values:

Hi
I checked the mentioned Patch Levels, everything seems to be fine.
After I did few changes in JCOs and checked the XCM configuration throughly shopadmin URL (http://<host>:<port>/shopadmin/shopadmin/init.do) has started working.
Now I have maintained 2 shops and can see the B2B and B2C web portals fine.
But as soon as I select any material, it is giving error saying error in XCM configuration related to IPC.
could you pleaase help me out with this?
Also, as soon as I click on the B2B Login link, it dumps.
And useradmin URL http://<host>:<port>/isauseradm/useradmin/init.do is still giving "Page can not be displayed",
These problems are related to XCM configuration, but not sure where exactly and which configuration is missing. please can you suggest ? Any XCM configuration related document will also be helpful.
Regards,
Neha

Can you nest ESI variables?

For example, I want to lookup a value in an ESI Environment file. However, the name of the value to lookup is specified in the query string.
So I'd be doing something like the following to extract the desired value:
$(env{$(QUERY_STRING{name})})
...where 'env' is the name of the esi:environment.
However, this does not work. Is it possible to nest esi variables in this way. If so, how?
Many thanks,
Francis

Any plans to implement this?
It would be very useful in some situations. For example, you have a page that outputs a value from an esi environment file, where the name of that value is specified in the Query String.
So your URL is something like:
lookup.jsp?lookup=firstName
Then, in lookup.jsp, you have something like:
$(env{$(QUERY_STRING{lookup})})
...which does a look up in the environment file for the key specified using the 'lookup' query string parameter. In the example above, the value for 'firstName' would be retrieved from the environment file.
Any chance of implementing nested ESI variables in the near future?

Problem with Threads and a static variable

I have a problem with the code below. I am yet to make sure that I understand the problem. Correct me if I am wrong please.
Code functionality:
A timer calls SetState every second. It sets the state and sets boolean variable "changed" to true. Then notifies a main process thread to check if the state changed to send a message.
The problem as far I understand is:
Assume the timer Thread calls SetState twice before the main process Thread runs. As a result, "changed" is set to true twice. However, since the main process is blocked twice during the two calls to SetState, when it runs it would have the two SetState timer threads blocked on its synchronized body. It will pass the first one, send the message and set "changed" to false since it was true. Now, it will pass the second thread, but here is the problem, "changed" is already set to false. As a result, it won't send the message even though it is supposed to.
Would you please let me know if my understanding is correct? If so, what would you propose to resolve the problem? Should I call wait some other or should I notify in a different way?
Thanks,
B.D.
Code:
private static volatile boolean bChanged = false;
private static Thread objMainProcess;
   protected static void Init(){
        objMainProcess = new Thread() {
            public void run() {
                while( objMainProcess == Thread.currentThread() ) {
                   GetState();
        objMainProcess.setDaemon( true );
        objMainProcess.start();
    public static void initStatusTimer(){
        if(objTimer == null)
             objTimer = new javax.swing.Timer( 1000, new java.awt.event.ActionListener(){
                public void actionPerformed( java.awt.event.ActionEvent evt){
                          SetState();
    private static void SetState(){
        if( objMainProcess == null ) return;
        synchronized( objMainProcess ) {
            bChanged = true;
            try{
                objMainProcess.notify();
            }catch( IllegalMonitorStateException e ) {}
    private static boolean GetState() {
        if( objMainProcess == null ) return false;
        synchronized( objMainProcess ) {
            if( bChanged) {
                SendMessage();
                bChanged = false;
                return true;
            try {
                objMainProcess.wait();
            }catch( InterruptedException e ) {}
            return false;
    }

Thanks DrClap for your reply. Everything you said is right. It is not easy to make them alternate since SetState() could be called from different places where the state could be anything else but a status message. Like a GREETING message for example. It is a handshaking message but not a status message.
Again as you said, There is a reason I can't call sendMessage() inside setState().
The only way I was able to do it is by having a counter of the number of notifies that have been called. Every time notify() is called a counter is incremented. Now instead of just checking if "changed" flag is true, I also check if notify counter is greater than zero. If both true, I send the message. If "changed" flag is false, I check again if the notify counter is greater than zero, I send the message. This way it works, but it is kind of a patch than a good design fix. I am yet to find a good solution.
Thanks,
B.D.

Error while offsetting a variable

Hello Experts
I want to display the data for last 5 years in my query. So I tried using the SAP exit variable Current Calendar Year (0CYEAR) and the offset it by 5. However, I am getting the following error message for the query "System error in program SAPLRR12 and form REP_ASSIGN_INITIAL_OPT-01"
Any Help on this is appreciated and points will be assigned.
Thanks

Thanks Chetan for your prompt reply. I have assigned points.
But I would appreciate if you help me clear my understanding of offseting a variable.
Say if the Current Calendar Year variable returns 2008, then will offseting that variable by 5 return me the data for years 2008, 2007, 2006, 2005 , 2004. Or, will it just return me the data for 2008 - 5 = 2004 only.
Thanks

Hi Rachit
You answered my doubt.This one really works . Thanks a lot !
But i have one more doubt i.e if have created the Presentation variable in the dashboard prompt and I want to use it in a report
i.e the scenario is If I have created a new column i.e " Revised Salary " in the Presentation Services and want the values to be entered there dynamically upon end users choice. For ex the end user selecrts value of 1 then the report would display an increament of 500 to all the employees in the " Revised Salary " column and if the end user select value of 2 .. the report would display a decrement of 500 in the " Revised salary column".
I am getting the following error :
========================================================================
