Rwcgi60 on UNIX needs shell script ?

I am trying out Reports 6i on a Linux box.
Using Apache Webserver, I have mapped all the virtual directories with execute permission.
When I call rwcgi60 through the browser, I get the following output
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE></TITLE>
</HEAD>
<BODY>
<CENTER><H1>
</CENTER></H1>
<BR></BODY>
</HTML>
But when i call a shell script (which in turn calls rwcgi60) through the browser, i get some output.
The shell script exports all the environment specific to Oracle Reports and calls rwcgi60.
Is the CGI intended to be called from a script file ? If no, what other configuration is necessary ?
Thanks.

I am having exactly the same problem on Solaris. The information I have shoehorned out of support so far is that you do need a shell script to make this work. I have followed these instructions but am still having problems. The document which details this bug is unpublished by Oracle so I only got extracts. Detailed below.....if you do have success with this please let me know as I am tearing my hair out.
REPORTS60_SERVER
1. The REPORTS60_SERVER file is located in your Oracle_Home and is used to
start the Report Server.
2. You may need to modify this file for variables such as DISPLAY, TNS_ADMIN
and the REPORTS60_PATH to fit your environment. @Also, please refer to
@Note: 111548.1 for setting up the TNSNAMES.ORA file.
3. If you are not using a WebDB Listener, you can delete the section which
stops and starts it. However, make sure you have started up your Webserver
Listener.
4. Once this file has been modified, the command to execute it is:
reports60_server start
Shell Script (RUNREP.SH)
1. You will need to create a shell script to run RWCGI60. This shell will then
be called from RUNREP.HTM file. You can name it anything (the example is
called runrep.sh) and needs to include the following:
#!/bin/sh (or which ever shell you want to use)
- ORACLE_HOME="/u03/app/oracle/product/dev6i"; export ORACLE_HOME
- TNS_ADMIN="/u03/app/oracle/product/dev6i/network/admin"; export
TNS_ADMIN
- exec /u03/app/oracle/product/dev6i/tools/web60/cgi/rwcgi60
2. You will need to redefine the ORACLE_HOME and TNS_ADMIN due to BUG:1201156.
3. This script can be located anywhere as far as the Webserver
Listener is
concerned. However, the best place would be in the ORACLE_HOME/tools/web60/
cgi directory for which we already have a virtual name defined in the
listener configuration file.
RUNREP.HTM
1. The RUNREP.HTM file is located in the ORACLE_HOME/tools/web60/html
directory.
2. You will need to modify this file due to the above mentioned Bug.
Go to the function called runReport( ) and for the var cgiexe = "rwcgi60",
replace it with the above shell script.
Example: var cgiexe = "runrep.sh"
3. Next, modify the port number for the Webserver. This file assumes that you
will be using the WebDB listener and is installed on port 8080 (by default).
You will need to find the following and change it to the correct port
number:
<td><input TYPE="TEXT" NAME="WEBPORT" SIZE="4" VALUE="8080"></td>
Change the Port Number to the one your WebServer Listener is on, such as:
7777.
After doing all of the above, you are ready to run a report on the web using
CGI implementation. From the browser run the following URL:
http://your_machine_name:listener_port#/virtual_dir_for_cgi/runrep.htm
This brings up a Template for you to provide the report name. Also change the
parameter values here for the userid/password, port#, and reports_server.

Unix master shell script to run jobs in parallel with dependency

I need a master shell script which would call the following shell scripts as per below order. Kindly note that if any shell script fails then the master shell script should abort.
Level 1     PRODUCTS
     SP_ROST_DLY_STG_lD
     SP_ROST_DLY_ITG_lD
After Level 1 completes run below two shell scripts in parallel:
Level 2     SP_IDL_EDGE_CON_POSTN_STG_Ld ,     SP_IDL_EDGE_ACCT_POSTN_STG_LD
After Level 2 completes run below shell scripts as per the seqeunce and in parallel:
Level 3     SP_IDL_EDGE_ACCT_STG_LD ,     SP_IDL_EDGE_CONT_STG_LD
     SP_IDL_EDGE_ACCT_STG_VAL ,     SP_IDL_EDGE_CONT_STG_VAL
     SP_IDL_EDGE_ACCT_ITG_Ld ,     SP_IDL_EDGE_CON_ITG_Ld
After Level 3 completes run below shell scripts as per the seqeunce and in parallel:
Level 4     SP_IDL_EDGE_CONT_POSTN_ITG_LD ,     SP_IDL_EDGE_VISITS_LD
     SP_IDL_EDGE_ACCT_POSTN_ITG_LD ,     SP_IDL_EDGE_VISITS_DTL_LD

can i avoid using set -e and use some other method so that if there is an error in previous job then the next job is not triggered.Sure, but it is ugly.
The below is not the only way to do this...
Wrap every place you start another script with:
$ if ! MYSCRIPT; then
    echo Script MYSCRIPT failed. >&2
    exit 1
fibut the wrapper for parallel scripts is even worse:
$ MYSCRIPT &
$ MYSCRIPT_JOBNO=$!
$ MYSCRIPT2 &
$ MYSCRIPT2_JOBNO=$!
$ MYSCRIPT_STATUS=`wait ${MYSCRIPT_JOBNO}`
$ if [ ${MYSCRIPT_STATUS} -ne 0 ]; then
    echo Script MYSCRIPT failed. >&2
    exit 1
fi
$ MYSCRIPT2_STATUS=`wait ${MYSCRIPT2_JOBNO}`
$ if [ ${MYSCRIPT2_STATUS} -ne 0 ]; then
    echo Script MYSCRIPT2 failed. >&2
    exit 1
fi
...Now, doesn't a simple 'set -e' look much better?

Hi,
    I want to write a shell script for piking the files in a sequence order (according to filename with time stamp) from the sorce FTP server ..
                 Requirement is in the source directory I'm getting files (Jain_1.xml , Jjain_2.xml, Jain_3.xml .. ect..) at present my file adapter is picking all the files at a time but i want to pick one by one... that to first i want to Jain_1.xml after finish the processing of the file then only my file adapter should pick the next file ( Jain_2.xml ) .
              so.. all the forum mates suggest me to write a shell script.. but where i have to write the s hell script. and where i have to deploy this script.... my Xi is running on UNIX ... so please sugest me the procedure ...

Need shell Script for Invalid object

Hi All,
Can anyone post me a script for checking the invalid objects in 10g/11g database.
The should should check for invalid objects,recompile and sent the email .

I could think fo something like below(And applicable to multiple SID's running on the server) and i tested it it works(bash shell script)
Assumptions:
You have environmental file to set ORACLE_HOME ORACLE_SID
say in this example
/oracle/env
ls -ltr
env_ORCL.sh
env_TEST.sh
env_HR.sh
You also have uuencode rpm installed to use along with mailx command(or else get it installed not big deal). uuencode is required
to send as mail attachment
1)I have kept SID list in file (/oracle/INVALID directory for eg)
cat SID.lst
ORCL
TEST
HR
If you have lot of SID's you can populate the file using ( ps -ef|grep -i pmon | grep -v grep | awk '{print$9}' | sed 's/ora_pmon_//g' > SID.lst)
2) Here are the list of SQL's(/oracle/INVALID directory
cat invalid_pre.sql (For listing invalid objects per instance)
set echo off
set heading off
set time off
set timing off
spool invalid.log append
break on instance_name
select instance_name , a.*
from (select owner,count(*) from dba_objects where status='INVALID' group by owner) a, v$instance;
spool off
exit;
cat invalid_compile.sql--to recompile invalid objects
set echo off
set termout off
set feedback off
@?/rdbms/admin/utlrp.sql 4; (Note you change degree 4 or 8 accordingly)
exit;
cat invalid_post.sql--to list post recompilation
set echo off
set heading off
set time off
set timing off
spool invalid_post.log append
break on instance_name
select instance_name , a.*
from (select owner,count(*) from dba_objects where status='INVALID' group by owner) a, v$instance;
spool off
exit;
3)here is the shell script
cat invalid.sh
for i in `cat SID11g.lst`
do
cd /oracle/env/
source env_$i.sh
cd /oracle/INVALID
sqlplus "/as sysdba" @invalid_pre.sql
sqlplus "/as sysdba" @invalid_compile.sql
sqlplus "/as sysdba" @invalid_post.sql
done
uuencode invalid.log invalid.log | mailx -s "Invalid" <your mail id>
uuencode invalid_post.log invalid_post.log | mailx -s "Invalid" <your mail id>
4) Finally run the shell script, hopefully you should receive email :-)
I have tested it on bash
./invalid.sh
Once tested you can schedule it in cron

Sqlplus and unix (bash) shell scripting

Hi,
I'm extracting some information from a DB and then "spooling" it to a file. So far so good.
The problem is that the records I get are not like what they look like when I run the stuff in sqlplus. Instead, the spooled file has alot of weird spaces and tabs in between and does not properly separate between the different rows.
Does anyone have any tips on how to do this?
Note: The datatype of the field I'm retrieving is "long". I've set linesize, pagesize and long to 1000.

Hi!
Try also to change SQL*Plus settings, i.e. SET LINESIZE 1000 (or whatever the most long line of your report could be), then TRIMSPOOL ON, TRIMOUT ON.

Regarding the shell scripting

Hi,
i am working on supporting side for a migrated project.My application is an ASO.
As i have to execute the MaxL scripts in Unix using shell scripting.
Can any one help me out in writing and executing the scripts in Putty server.
it is very apreciable if i get response soon to my id [email protected]
Thanks and waiting for reply.
Srinivas

We are using Essbase on UNIX (AIX) too. Generally speaking, I always create 2 files when I want to execute a MaxL script on our UNIX server:
1) a shell script, eg. proc.sh, that contains "essmsh -l <user> <password> proc.msh".
The proc.sh file can be edited using the standard UNIS editor "vi" and needs to be executable (the "x" bit needs to be set).
2) the MaxL script, eg. proc.msh, that contains the MaxL statements to be executed on Essbase
Hope this helps.

Oracle 10g and Korn Shell Scripting

I have a table,SALES_STAGING, with 3 main columns.
Sales_Date, Sales_type,Sales_Code.
A sale is added to the table then waits until approved to be processed. The Sales_Code is 1(waiting approval). Then manually changed to 2 every 30 minutes by sales staff except on weekends. By Monday,a large queue develops. This must be changed because the queue is slowing the system. Can someone help create a Unix Korn shell script to
1) Run every 30 minutes via Crontab
2)login to the Oracle DB.
3)Count the number of records to be processed, if any.
4)Update another 'log' table with the time it ran and the records to be processed
5)if there are less than 20 add another 50 to be processed by changing the Sales_Code from 1 to 2.
This would really help out tremendously! Thank you.

Wait... Isn't this forum designed for the sharing of information? The experts here shouldn't be concerned whether the request is from a Student, Oracle newbie or Developer and should focus on the request. If you are capable of assisting then I am hoping you will out of the core respect for professionalism and the motivation to provide something of value to others. If not, don't waste my time or any one else by responding with preconceived judgments and insulting remarks as these will be reported.
Sales transactions can peak at 20,000 per hour with an average of several million thru the week. Those sales by VIP customers are immediately identified and have a priority for approvals because their balances can easily exceed $1,000,000.00. There is a pre-approval process to be introduced but until programs can be modified/tested and deployed we need a quick fix. The programming system isn't slow, it's the limited human resources approving VIP customers. My request was to keep it simple and expand on it myself to include the entire scope of our project. dbms_scheduler, although a good idea will require DBA assistance and there is no resource available. I need a simple working model to give me some direction/ideas...

Accessing concurrent prg parameter values having space in shell script

Hi, I have a CP that is tied to Host (shell script). One of the parameter values of CP contains spaces. When I print this parameter ($5) in shell script, space is taken as terminator and it parses it in mutiple postions, like if value is "Hello There" then $5 comes as "Hello" and $6 comes as "There"
How do I access whole values including space as one parameter value?
Regards,
Harish

Hi Ashutoosh,
OS is SunSolaris 5.9
My problems was that if I pass a value from concurrent program that has space and wanted to access that value in shell script as one parameter, it won't allow.
I did anlaysis on this and I think for now, there is no way out. If I pass values from unix to shell script it works, because I will enclose in quotes.
I removed the spaces while passing value from Concurrent program and was able to achieve what I wanted but its an work around.
Thanks,
Harish

Need Help in creating Unix Shell Script for database

Would be appreciable if some one can help in creating unix shell script for the Oracle DB 10,11g.
Here is the condition which i want to implement.
1. Create shell script to create the database with 10GB TB SPACE and 3 groups of redo log file(Each 300MB).
2. Increase size of redolog file.
3. Load sample schema.
4. dump the schema.
5. Create empty db (Script should check if db already exists and drop it in this case).
6. Create backup using rman.
7. restore backup which you have backed up.

This isn't much of a "code-sharing" site but a "knowledge-sharing" site. Code posted me may be from a questioner who has a problem / issue / error with his code. But we don't generally see people writing entire scripts as responses to such questions as yours. There may be other sites where you can get coding done "for free".
What you could do is to write some of the code and test it and, if and when it fails / errors, post it for members to make suggestions.
But the expectation here is for you to write your own code.

Calling a report from unix shell script

Hi,
I had to call a report from unix shell script.
May i know the procedure to accomplish this
Thanks in Advance
A.Gopal

First you should not include the whole path to your report in the call ...
Use like this:
/ora/u01/oracle/v101/as2/bin/rwrun.sh report=an_stati destype=file desname=/ora/u01/oracle/v101/as2/test.pdf desformat=pdf
In $ORACLE_HOME/bin/reports.sh:
1) Verify that you have updated the REPORTS_PATH variable to include your folder where you have the report in question
REPORTS_PATH=/ora/u20/app/qits/env1/run:$ORACLE_HOME/reports/templates:$ORACLE_HOME/reports/samples/demo: ....
2) Verify that the REPORTS_TMP variable is pointing to a valid location and that the oracle user has access to write on it.
After that, post the content of the tracefile located at $ORACLE_HOME/reports/logs/{in-process report server name folder}/rwserver.trc
If no file is present then it means that you need to enable trace in your reports's conf file.... go to the $ORACLE_HOME/reports/conf folder and and locate the .conf file that correspond to your in-process reports server name (as specified in the rwservelet.properties file)... open/edit the file to enable trace logs ..
i.e.
Change the following line:

to <trace traceOpts="trace_all"/>
Bounce the reports server and try to run the report again, this time the .trc file should be generated, post the content so that we can take a look.

Using a UNIX shell script to run a Java program (packaged in a JAR)

Hi,
I have an application (very small) that connects to our database. It needs to run in our UNIX environment so I've been working on a shell script to set the class path and call the JAR file. I'm not making a lot of progress on my own. I've attached the KSH (korn shell script) file code.
Thanks in advance to anyone who knows how to set the class path and / or call the JAR file.
loggedinuser="$(whoami)"
CFG_DIR="`dirname $0`"
EXIT_STATUS=${SUCCESS}
export PATH=/opt/java1.3/bin:$PATH
OLDDIR="`pwd`"
cd $PLCS_ROOT_DIR
java -classpath $
EXIT_STATUS=$?
cd $OLDDIR
echo $EXIT_STATUS
exit $EXIT_STATUS

Hi,
I have an application (very small) that connects to
our database. It needs to run in our UNIX environment
so I've been working on a shell script to set the
class path and call the JAR file.
#!/bin/sh
exec /your/path/to/java -cp your:class:paths:here -MoreJvmOptionsHere your.package.and.YourClass "$@"Store this is a file of any name, e.g. yuckiduck, and then change the persmissions to executechmod a+x yuckiduckThe exec makes sure the shell used to run the script does not hang around until that java program finishes. While this is only a minor thing, it is nevertheless infinite waste, because it does use some resources but the return on that investment is 0.
CFG_DIR="`dirname $0`"You would like to fetch the directory of the installation out of $0. This breaks as soon as someone makes a (soft) link in some other directory to this script and calls it by its soft linked name. Your best bet if you don't know a lot of script programming is to hardcode CFG_DIR.
OLDDIR="`pwd`"
cd $PLCS_ROOT_DIRVery bad technique in UNIX. UNIX supports the notion of a "current directory". If your user calls this program in a certain directory, you should assume that (s)he does this on purpose. Making your application dependent on a start in a certain directory ignores the very helpful concept of 'current directory' and is therefore a bug.
cd $OLDDIRThis has no effect at all because it only affects the next two lines of code and nothing else. These two lines, however, don't depend on the current directory. In particular this (as the cd above) does not change the current directory for the interactive shell your user is working in.
echo $EXIT_STATUS
exit $EXIT_STATUSEchoing the exit status is an interesting idea, but if you don't do this for a very specific purpose, I recommend not to do this for the simple reason that no other UNIX program does it.

in /jalcl for clients and /jalsvr for server but want to create this batch file in separate /bin folder how to do.please help me

Thank you for reply ,
And sorry by mistake question repeated twice,
but when iam executing those batch files it is throwing some exceptions,
in that file you did not mention to set the JRE path whether it is not necessary and also there msoc05 is the machine name of unix system that need to kept or need to be changed with window IP address .please reply.
thanks in advance.
