Running Discoverer Desktop query.... via command line

Hi Everyone,
Hope all is well,
I have learned how to run Discoverer using command line.
My question is:
===========
When you log into Discoverer manually, the parameters values that were last used in the last run display when
the query opens....
When i run Discoverer command line, i have to explicitly mention all the parameter names and their values
If i do not mention the parameters, i get an error message: unresolve parameter...
I'd really like to run the query command line style WITHOUT mentioning parameters, and wish Discoverer to run
the query with the default parameters....
Is this possible...
Thx for your ideas and advice, sandra

Hi Tamir,
sigh...
tx for writing...
i just found this post.... says if parm is used in calc, cannot be made optional...
Parameters - do they have to be mandatory?
tx, s

  • Running reports via command-line with /batch option

    Hi,
    I have created a batch file which runs, and exports the results of 7 different discoverer reports with /batch option.
    Contents of batch file:
    c:\orant\discvr4\dis4usr /cmdfile "H:\Projects\DRP Import Modelling\automation\DRP Model Input1.txt"
    c:\orant\discvr4\dis4usr /cmdfile "H:\Projects\DRP Import Modelling\automation\DRP Model Input2.txt"
    c:\orant\discvr4\dis4usr /cmdfile "H:\Projects\DRP Import Modelling\automation\DRP Model Input3.txt"
    c:\orant\discvr4\dis4usr /cmdfile "H:\Projects\DRP Import Modelling\automation\DRP Model Input4.txt"
    c:\orant\discvr4\dis4usr /cmdfile "H:\Projects\DRP Import Modelling\automation\DRP Model Input5.txt"
    c:\orant\discvr4\dis4usr /cmdfile "H:\Projects\DRP Import Modelling\automation\DRP Model Input6.txt"
    c:\orant\discvr4\dis4usr /cmdfile "H:\Projects\DRP Import Modelling\automation\DRP Model Input7.txt"
    Sample of a cmd file the bacth file runs:....
    /connect user/password@oraprd /apps_responsibility "BIS Super User"
    /open "H:\Projects\DRP Import Modelling\Dev\Intransit Extract.dis"
    /sheet 1 /export xls "H:\Projects\DRP Import Modelling\automation\Intransit Input.xls" /batch
    The batch file runs ok and processes each report in sequence, and creates the excel export one after the other.
    However, I need to process the 7 reports in parallel, so changed the batch file to process in own thread :
    start c:\orant\discvr4\dis4usr /cmdfile "H:\Projects\DRP Import Modelling\automation\DRP Model Input1.txt"
    start c:\orant\discvr4\dis4usr /cmdfile "H:\Projects\DRP Import Modelling\automation\DRP Model Input2.txt"
    start c:\orant\discvr4\dis4usr /cmdfile "H:\Projects\DRP Import Modelling\automation\DRP Model Input3.txt"
    start c:\orant\discvr4\dis4usr /cmdfile "H:\Projects\DRP Import Modelling\automation\DRP Model Input4.txt"
    start c:\orant\discvr4\dis4usr /cmdfile "H:\Projects\DRP Import Modelling\automation\DRP Model Input5.txt"
    start c:\orant\discvr4\dis4usr /cmdfile "H:\Projects\DRP Import Modelling\automation\DRP Model Input6.txt"
    start c:\orant\discvr4\dis4usr /cmdfile "H:\Projects\DRP Import Modelling\automation\DRP Model Input7.txt"
    The reports kick off at the same time and I can see 7 dis4usr.exe processes running via task manager
    Problem:
    The first reports runs and exports ok.
    All the others dis4usr.exe processing stops with the following error pop-up:
    ! Could not open file. OK
    Question:
    Can you only process reports sequentially via command line mode with /batch option?
    If not...what am I missing...its driving me insane :)
    All asistance is greatly appreciated. Thanks

    Ladies and gentlemen.....I have solved my problemo!
    The reason why the rest of the reports were getting the 'could not open file.' error was due to the fact that each discoverer instance launched was
    trying to access the same standard log file simultaneously.
    I modified each cmd file to write logging info to individual files: eg
    /logfile "H:\Projects\DRP Import Modelling\Automation\input2_log.txt"
    Now that's there's no contention with logging, the reports are firing off beautifully in parallel :)
    I am definitely having a beer this evening!
    Thanks for everyone's input...kept me on the righteous path :)

  • Assessing Command 'Analyze Source Files' via Command Line when running TestSTand Deployment Utility

    Our Software Configuration Manager is running the TestStand Command Line Deployment Build Tool (Ref: https://decibel.ni.com/content/docs/DOC-38947).
            When he builds the application,  the code will not be at the same location it was in development. 
    If you are Manually running the TestStand Deployment Utility, This is not a problem because everything is relative in the workspace.   Simply go to the Distributed Files Tab (of TestSTand Deployment Utility) and hit the, "Analyze Source Files" button.  This finds the required files and apparently creates an updated hard path to be used during the build (probably in the *.tsd).
    PROBLEM:  We auto-run the Command Line Deployment Build Tool (Command Line), and we do not have access to the, 'Analyze Source Files' command.
                As a result, our build consist of many warnings and the output is missing many files (the location of the files have not been updated).
    If we could access the 'Analyze Source Files' Command via command line, that would fix the issue. 
    FYI:  We use an automatic builder called Quick Build as our builder.

    Unfortunately it looks like Analyze Source Files does not have a command equivalent for the command line based on this article and attached PDF:
    https://decibel.ni.com/content/docs/DOC-38947
    That may be a good post for the TestStand Idea Exchange for consideration in future versions of TestStand.

    Alriight. Well, when I type in java -version. It says I have 1.4.2 and NetBeans uses 1.6. I have no idea where 1.4.2 is installed (Linux), but since I'm compiling it with 1.6, does that mean no one else can run the program unless they have 1.6 on their machine?

  • Error -402 upon installing an extension via Command Line

    When I try to install my extension via command line, i receive the following error message:
    "Failed to install, status = -402!"
    What does this error code -402 mean?
    I found someone with a similar problem in the forums: Re: Extension Manager CC failed to install extension
    He/She had file names containing non-ASCII characters. But i couldn't find any non-ASCII characters in my project or extension.

  • Adobe Reader 11 (XI) won't open file via command line

    Hello,
    I have posted this question to probably inapropriate topic earlier today, so I am repeating it again.
    I installed newest Adobe Reader XI today and when I tried to open certain pdf file via command line, it reported a syntax error. Now, this syntax worked so far on versions 9 and 10  (I checked today with them and it is working), so my question is - where can I find new syntax, if there is any? Googling didn't help. Or what else could wrong?
    In previous versions I was able to open pdf file (on page 5) like this (all was taken from Help file "Open parameters")
    "CompletePathToAdobeReader"/A"page=5""CompletePathToPDF",
    ie
    "C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Reader 11.0\Reader\AcroRd32.exe"/A"page=5""d:\V2\DataSheet.pdf"
    but now - not that it doesn't open specific page, but it doesn't want to open file at all.
    edit:
    Operating systems running: Windows 7, Windows XP
    Thank you.
    Message was edited by: v604

    Yes, it reported correctly becuase there is a syntax error in your command. Try spaces between the /A switch and open parameter. Try this:
    "C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Reader 11.0\Reader\AcroRd32.exe" /A "page=5" "d:\V2\DataSheet.pdf"
    Hope this helps.

  • 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.

    I'm searching solutions to merge multiple documents (all stored in one folder) via command line or batch file to a single PDF-File...
    Is there a way to do this?
    Finaly I want to control this from a application written in MS-Access. So, perhaps there are some features already integrated in Access to do this?
    Thanks for answer!

    If you have some programming experience you could probably do this using VBA from within MS Access to control Acrobat via OLE.

  • How do I get LR2 to "load from device" via command line?

    Hi,
    how do I get LR2 to "load from device" via command line?
    I've got XP to load LR2 when a "camera" (and only a camera) is connected but really cool would be if LR2 would also import the pictures.
    cu,

  • [SOLVED] How to Crop an MP4 Video via Command-line?

    I have ffmpeg, mpg123, and mencoder. Does anyone know of a way I could use any of those to crop an mp4 video via command-line? I am trying to take off the black space above and below a video. Thanks in advance!

    I don't think it's possible to crop without re-encoding, but you can crop from the command line with ffmpeg and mencoder. Not sure about mpg123 - I think that's for playing audio but I could be wrong there.
    Anyway, with ffmpeg you can do cropping by using -croptop, -cropbottom, -cropleft, and -cropright. So if you wanted to crop 16 pixels off of the top and the bottom, your command line would look something like this:
    ffmpeg -i <input file> -croptop 16 -cropbottom 16 <video encoding options> <audio encoding options> <output file>
    With mencoder you use the "crop" video filter, like this:
    mencoder <input file> -o <output file> -vf crop=320:208:0:16 <other options>
    where the "320:208:0:16" means that the resulting picture is 320 pixels wide, 208 pixels high, and the 0:16 is the x,y position of the cropped area.
    These command lines are just really very basic examples - ffmpeg and mencoder have a LOT of options. Way too many to explain here. If you don't believe me, just try reading through the mencoder man page sometime. (There's an online version of it at: http://www.mplayerhq.hu/DOCS/man/en/mplayer.1.html)
    Hope this helps!!
