Hi,
You can use CONCSUB (or SQL*Plus with anonymous PL/SQL block calling fnd_request.submit_request) to submit concurrent request which is a report with output set to PDF, then get the pdf file from $APPLCSF/$APPLOUT/o<request_id>.out and copy to the folder on the server as xxxx.pdf.

Running Oracle Scripts from Command Line

Hi,
How can i run Oracle scripts from command line.
Actually i need to run these scripts from MSBuild before running Unit test projects

C:\>sqlplus @myscript
That would be the easiest variation
C:\>sqlplus user/passwd@tns_alias @myscript
would be an often used variation
And then there is of course the version with parameter passing:
C:\>sqlplus user/passwd@tns_alias @myscript param1 ... paramx
Dunno about MSBuild

Ummm....Oracle Forms is a foreground runtime kind of thing. What you want is a database procedure (or an OS utility - it depends on what sort of processing you want to do in the background).

How to automatically generate a build file of the application from command-line

Hi All
How can we automatically generate a build file of the application from command-line (as opposed to using Jdev IDE to click to generate a build.xml) ?
Thanks

User, which jdev version do you use?
I don't think you can do this. You can only create an ant build.xml from the project inside jdev.
You can use ojdeploy to build the project. This is the only method which will also make the necessary changes to the descriptors.

Error while running ADF-BC Test Suite from command line

Hi,
I have created a separate test project containing the Test Suite for the Model componenet of my ADF-BC application.
I need to run this test project separately from jmeter.
The tests run fine from Jdev, But when I package the test project into a jar and try to run from command line, I get the following error:

The Test project jar is created as ADF Library JAR File with Model.jpr as the dependent project. This takes care of project class dependencies
All the adf library dependencies are added to the manifest file of the Test Project jar referring to a location lib/ in the jar file directory.
I tried creating the ApplicationModule using both Configuration class (Configuration.createRootApplicationModule) as well as using the JDBC Connection String but both fail when I run the test cases independently from jmeter.
Anybody came across such an error? Please help.
Thanks,

Hi Timo,
Im using JDev version 11.1.1.6.0.
I checked the class path on the jdev console. All the library references are mentioned in the manifest.mf classpath of the test project like below:
Manifest-Version: 1.0
Class-Path: lib/identitystore.jar
lib/adfm.jar
lib/groovy-all-1.6.3.jar
lib/adftransactionsdt.jar
lib/adf-dt-at-rt.jar
lib/adfdt_common.jar
lib/adflibrary.jar
lib/xmlparserv2.jar
lib/db-ca.jar
lib/jdev-cm.jar
lib/ojmisc.jar
lib/commons-el.jar
lib/jsp-el-api.jar
etc...
So I expect the library references should be resolved looking at the manifest file.
Another set of entries that I see in the jdev classpath are related to the Model project which is under test.
-classpath
D:\CurrentProject_1\16_7_2013_3pm\11_7_2013\.adf;
D:\CurrentProject_1\16_7_2013_3pm\11_7_2013\Model\classes;
How do I put these entries into my class path? Will it be sufficient if I add the Model.jar into my test project classpath?
Thanks,
Sapna

How to restore or backup Apex application from Command line ? URGENT

We have Oracle apex 4.1 installed in Oracle 11g R2 database (windows 64-bit) 2008 R2
For some reason our database dictionary objects are corrupted.
We wanted to backup our Apex applications in some workspaces ASAP.
We are not able to access apex from http://localhost:7777/pls/apex/htmldb_login
We have an underlying database schema export (expdp).
1) Is there a way to export or backup the apex application without logging into the apex URL ? if yes how ?
2) Does Oracle has any of its own native tool to backup and restore from command line ?
Thanks in advance

My (MS Windows) experience, if I may; perhaps you'll find something useful.
You'll find the README.TXT file in /apex/utilities directory. Read it.
In order to use APEXExport, you need JDK version 1.5 or higher. Check your version by typing (and viewing the result):
C:\>java –version
java version "1.6.0_06"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_06-b02)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 10.0-b22, mixed mode, sharing)Its directory should be part of the PATH environment variable: on my computer, directory name isC:\Program Files\Java\jre1.6.0_06\binFurthermore, Oracle JDBC class libraries must be part of the CLASSPATH environment variable. Check whether it exists (in Control Panel - System - Advanced - Environment Variables). For my 10gXE, it is here:C:\oraclexe\app\oracle\product\10.2.0\server\jdbc\lib\ojdbc14.jarI couldn't make it work; didn't know that ".\" directory must be entered into CLASSPATH as well (found that information in Arie Geller's book). Therefore, my final CLASSPATH version is:.\;C:\oraclexe\app\oracle\product\10.2.0\server\jdbc\lib\ojdbc14.jarOK, setup is done. Now, go to your /apex/utilities directory and, from the command prompt, run (mind the upper case!)java oracle.apex.APEXExportwhich will show a short help.
I chose to export the whole workspace. In order to do that, I need the workspace ID (got it from Apex's SQL Workshop; that might be a problem as you can't get there, can you? I can't tell how to find that information apart from SQL Workshop, but I'm pretty sure someone, who is much more experienced than me, will know it). OK, here's how you find it:select v('WORKSPACE_ID') from dual;Finally, here's the final step - export:C:\apex\utilities>java oracle.apex.APEXExport -db localhost:1521:xe -user scott -password tiger -workspaceid 1038408092496568The result are fxxx.sql files (where "xxx" represents application number).
I hope you'll manage to export your applications; basically, nothing special here (except that ".\" directory in the CLASSPATH variable).
Best of luck!

Unable to build and run Javapetstore using Sun SDK from Command Line

Hi,
Here is a problem I?ve come across building and running JavaPetstore from Command Line using Ant.
It shows that Build is successful but there is an error message in very beginning:
?Unable to locate tools. jar. Expected to find it in C:\Program Files\Java\jre 1.5.0_11\lib\tools.jar?
But there is no such a file in jre-1.5.0_11 or previous versions.
The only place where the file with such name can be found is jdk\lib.
All attempts to run end up with:
? BUILD FAILED.
C:\<PETSTORE_HOME>\bp-project\command-line-ant-task.xml:77;unable to find javac compiler;com.sun.tools.javac.Main is not on the class path.
Perhaps JAVA_HOME does not point to JDK."
Directories C:\Sun\SDK\bin and C:\Sun\SDK\jdk are in the PATH.
JAVA_HOME as a System variable is set up to C:\Sun\SDK\jdk.
Building and running other applications like a BluePrints or Samples bring to same result.
I will post more information if needed.
Thank you in advance for help.

If you are using Windows XP:
1. Right click on my computer
2. Select Properties from the popup dialog
3. Click on the "Advanced" tab
4. Click the button towards the bottom that says "Environment Variables"
5. In the dialog that pops up, look in both the User variables and the System variables for a variable named CLASSPATH
6. If its not there, you need to create it. If you want to make it available to all users of your computer, create it as a System variable. If you only want it to be available to the current user, add it as a User variable.
7. If it is there, or if you just created it, it needs to contain the following values: the current directory (symbolically abbreviated as a period: "."), any class libraries you want to be available to the java compiler (javac) or the java interpreter (java). By default, jre/lib and jre/lib/ext are searched for classes, so you don't need to include anything located in one of these folders on the classpath.

Run Report outside Oracle Application on Unix box

i want custom repot output outside Oracle Application on Unix box. How could i get output, which command i have to use. i can run on PC.

Hi,
Do you want to print the report NOT from the application? If so, you can use lp or print commands to do this (Output files can be found under $APPLCSF/$APPLOUT directory).

https://metalink2.oracle.com/metalink/plsql/ml2_documents.showDocument?p_database_id=NOT&p_id=106186.1
You can also print the report from the OS using CONCSUB.

Invoking Forms 6i application from command line with parameters

Hi,
I have a java application that requires to start up and execute an existing Forms 6i application.
I am not a java person, and I could not find any help regarding this. If anyone knows how to execute an fmx(6i) from within a java application, then please let me know. The java application has to pass in parameters so that the the Forms application opens up with the correct data.
One alternative suggested was that the java application execute a command line invocation of the Forms application. I am looking for the correct and complete syntax to do this. The fmx can be invoked from the command line with the following entered at the dos prompt -
c:\>OraFrm6i\Bin\ifrun60.exe<module name> <userid/password@db>. This works fine and the Forms application is executed.
The requirement is to pass a couple of user defined parameters to the Forms application which can be used by it to query the database and display the correct information when it opens.
Any help on this would be greately appreciated.
Thanks
Shailesh

Shailesh,
Create a parameter in your form - eg. COUNTRY_CODE and add any startup code.
Then add the parameter to your command line (or put it in a *.bat file)
c:\>OraFrm6i\Bin\ifrun60.exe<module name> <userid/password@db> country_code=UK

1- Is it because it depends on how jpr or jws are configured ?
2- How can we automatically generate a build file of the application from command-line (as opposed to using Jdev IDE to click to generate a build.xml) ?

The first warning is happening because you're stating drivers for input devices without need. You haven't disabled hotplug so evdev gets used instead of kbd. This is normal, and you should change the driver line from kbd to evdev so that whatever options (if any) you've specified for the keyboard get parsed.
The second warning is about you not installing acpid.
The third I have no idea about, but look at the synaptics wiki. None of the (WW) are related to your video card.
And every card that has 2 or more output ports show up as "two cards". You also don't need to specify the pci port in xorg.conf. edit: this is the general case with laptops, might be different for desktops.
When I do lspci -v I get:

And it doesn't matter if it errs in trying to sli up with it self. That's just not a possibility.

To run a report from command line, when using jdbc-odbc bridge

Hi,
How to run a report from command line, when using jdbc-odbc bridge?

with odbc, we do by "rwrun module=<> userid=<user>/<passwd>@odbc:DSN"
Please specify, what is command line arguments for jdbc-odbc bridge driver?

Hello Ramanan,
Report Builder : connect JDBC Query in Report Builder is to through Connection Dialog in JDBC Query Editor. User can use a Sign on parameter (can use, default : P_JDBCPDS or can create new) to connect to JDBC Data Source. Connection once made will be mentioned and will be reused through out Reports Builder.
JDBC PDS allows user to connect one or more same or different kind of databases.
While running report through runtime or Server, user can pass the sign on parameter(connection string) value, like any other user parameter.
Syntax for connection string : <username>/<password>@databaseURL . The syntax of database part of connection string depend on the type of JDBC Driver used to connect to Data Source while designing the JDBC Query. databaseURL refer to the location of the database and its format depend on the JDBCPDS river selected in design time while creating the JDBC Query.
rwrun eg :
rwrun report=jdbc_odbc.rdf destype=file desname=output.html desformat=html P_JDBCPDS=scott/tiger@database
Server eg :
http://server.com:8888/servlet/RWServlet?server=MyReportServer+report=jdbc_odbc.rdf+destype=cache+desformat=html+P_JDBCPDS=scott/tiger@database

How to run a 10g report from command line ?

Good Afternoon,
Please advise if there is a way to run a 10g report from command line.
We use 6i right now and our job scheduler runs reports using "D:\ORADEV6I\BIN\RWRUN60.EXE ..." executable in batch mode on a separate server. We plan to migrate to 10g Database, Forms, Reports. Is there a way to keep this functionality and create a "command" to address an report server and run a report?
Thank you,
Dmitri

Steps to take.
(1.) In command prompt type RWSERVER SERVER=repserver1 to star the rep server.
(2.) If you get "Javaw.exe The procedure entry point psoasyn could not be located in the dynamic link library orapls10.dll." error do one of the following
        (a.) Type the full name for the server. D:\OracleDevR2\bin\rwserver SERVER=repserver1
               or, if it does not work
        (b.) Add D:\OracleDevR2\bin to the system env. variable PATH
(3.) Start OC4j
(4.) Now you can access the jobs using URL like:
    http://192.161.11.143:8890/reports/rwservlet/showjobs?server=repserver1
      where 192.161.11.143 is your machine's IP address.
