Show parameter audit

Hi all,

I am auditing my SYS using OS file as in:
SQL> show parameter audit
NAME                                 TYPE        VALUE
audit_file_dest                      string      /var/log/oracle
audit_sys_operations                 boolean     TRUE
audit_syslog_level                   string      LOCAL0.INFO
audit_trail                          string      OS
But when I check my OS directory: ls -l /var/log/oracle
:oracle[/var/log/oracle] ls -l /var/log/oracle
total 0
The is no audit log file created
How do I troubleshoot this please.
Thanks,
mk

Does oracle user have privileges to write into that path:
touch aud.log
See whether you can create a file.
However, if you refer to the audit into syslog, the audit setup was fine, you must configure the /etc/syslog.conf - or - /etc/rsyslog.conf file for that path:
You have to add the following line as :
local0.info /var/log/oracle/audit.log
before this, create the audit.log file at /var/log/oracle ( touch audit.log )
After you edit syslog.conf or rsyslog.conf restart the syslog:
service rsyslog restart
Check the file /var/log/oracle/audit.log:
tail -300f /var/log/oracle/audit.log for the audit records. If does not get written, restart the database with the first conviguration set from your first update

Show parameter form and then print directly to client printer

I have few reports that show parameter form for user entry. After the user enters the parameter and hits Submit query, the report should automatically get printed on the client's default printer. I tried to use ORARRP but I could get that to work only for reports do not open parameter form before going directly to the printer. Can someone please guide me how to achieve this?
Thanks!

I would like it to go to the client PCs default printer. Can you please tell me how do I do that?

Sqlplus and "show parameter"

hi,
I cloned two databases from a database (copying filesystem, modifying parameter file, and recreating control file).
on one of the cloned databases when I log in as a user using sqlplus and do show parameter db_name, it shows the parameter.
on the other one, it says "table or view does not exist".
why is this? they were both cloned from the same database!
thanks

but if I have database A, and I clone that into databases X and Y, and during the whole duration A was not modified so that A, X and Y end up being completely identical, then surely one would expect user ora12 on all three databases to have the same privileges? Why then can I use show parameter on databases A and X, but not Y?
thanks

Show parameter optimizer --- table or view does not exist

one of our programmer needs to have the ability to execute "show parameter optimizer". when he does he receives "table or view does not exist". when i run said command as system i do not receive said error. is the only way around this to grant him specific rights within the database? if so, what is the lowest level of rights i can grant him to allow a proper execution? can i grant rights to only said command? -a

It's a SQL*PLUS command and can't be used in PL/SQL block. You may use something like
select * from v$parameter where name like 'optimizer%'

I accidentally entered this line in sqlplus and got a bunch of stuff retruned but I cannot figure out what x stands for. Is it a shorthand for some parameter?This will show you all parameters which contains X letter in parameter name. It is equivalent of select NAME, TYPE, VALUE from v$parameter where NAME like '%x%';

Showing Parameter form in web browser

I have created a parameter form which contains some restricted List of values need to be choosed by the user before printing the report.
I done this by putting the keyword ParamForm=Yes in the URL. The parameter form shows with all the parameter fields and the list of values in HTML format together with two buttons : SUBMIT QUERY and RESET which is generated by the report. After all the values has been entered, the SUBMIT QUERY button was press the the report server return an error:
Oracle Reports Server CGI - Key "" is unrecognized. Possible causes: bad URL syntax; key in URL was not found in the key map file
Why this will happen?

Hi,
No, I don't think is the problem with the cgicmd file. This problem will only occured when I calling the report paramater form by putting the key PARAMFORM=YES IN in the URL.
But if I by-pass the parameter form by puttinh the key PARAFORM=NO and include all the parameters needed in the URL, the report server can map the key and run the report successfully!
I think the problem is the submit Query button which was generated automatically by the report. How does the submit Query button works?
For eg. I type the report URL with the key that I have created in the cgicmd file :
http://webHost:webPort/cgi-bin/RWcgi60?Key1
and inside the cgicmd.dat file is like this:
Key1: report=Report.rdf userid=eb/eb@eagledb server=Rep60_EAGLEW2K PARAMFORM=YES destype=cache desformat=htmlcss
then, the report server will automactically generate a parameter form in HTML format together with the SUBMIT QUERY button and RESET button to allow user to enter the parameters. Once the parameters has been entered, and the button SUBMIT QUERY button being pressed, the report will return this error.
Any idea?
Thanks.

Without Showing Parameter Form !!!!!!!

To who may concern,,,,
I have designed an oracle form and a button to print the oracle report. Is there possible to avoid showing the parameter form and the button directly print the report.
A piece of source code is appreciated.
Thank's in advance
Best regards

pass a parameter to report
PARAMFORM=NO
this will stop the parameter form from showing.
To have the report directly printed use
DESFORMAT=PRINTER.
Check the online help for information about how to pass parameters from forms to reports.

How the show parameter form for the report over the web by using an url ?

hello,
my url to call my report is :
http://server/reports/rwservlet?report=rtm0350.rep&desformat=html&userid=un/pw@hostring&server=rep_server&paramform=yes
but it doesn't show me the parameter form to introduce the parameters and I get :
'FINISH SUCCESSFULLY'
has anybnody any idea ?
thank's

If this is a 'paper' report then =yes has always worked for me as long you have parameters declared in the report.
Description Use PARAMFORM to specify whether to display the Runtime Parameter
Form when you execute a report through CGI or a servlet. PARAMFORM is used only to
supply parameters to paper layout reports, not JSP-based Web reports.
Syntax PARAMFORM=YES|NO|HTML
Values
■ YES Display the Parameter Form.
■ NO Do not display the Parameter Form.
■ HTML Display the Parameter Form in HTML format.

Oracle Reports doesn't show parameter form running on middle tier

I have a report that uses the parameter form. When I run it on the middle tier the report runs but without first displaying the parameter form. I am wondering if anyone can help me figure out how to get the parameter form to show when running on the middle tier. It is using OAS 9i as the application server.

Wesley,
You have to give PARAMFORM = YES if you are running through servlet
Thanks

Datapump and SHOW parameter

Hi,
I have a export dump file , datapump was used to do the export. Before I used to use SHOW=Y to write the contents to a file to identify all the tablespace names and recreate them when moving database across different platform.
Whats equivalent parameter in Datapump for SHOW=Y? is there any other new method which can be used to identify the tablespace names and create them before i do the import in datapump.
Thank you

Perhaps, this would help you.

How to show Parameter in .rtf Templates

Dear All,
Kindly guide me that how can I show Report Parameters in my templates. I'll be very thankful to you for this.
Regards
Zain A. Siddiqui

Hi Zain,
If you are still looking for a solution, I would suggest trying this.
Have another group in your report which selects parameters from fnd_concurrent_requests
table based on the value of p_conc_request_id of your request..
This group will show up in your xml which yiou can use.

Opendocument link showing parameter while using lsS

Hi,
We are using OpenDocument to view a report. We want to pass the default values to the parameters for crystal report. While using lsS when the date is specified to the parameter the parameter to which the value is assigned stops getting displayed in the parameter panel.
We want to display the parameter with the default value which is passed.
Is there a solution for the same?
Regards,
Simran

Well, there isn't a 'neat' way to do this other than the Java way.
Here are some options though:
1) Create a command object with a SQL query that returns one row and one column in the form of 'first day of last month'. Change the existing Date prompt type in your report to 'dynamic' and choose the field from the command object above as the 'value' field.
This will remove the calendar date picker and instead you'll need to choose the value from the drop-down. The drop-down will always get the first day of last month from the SQL query.
2) Create a blank report and create a formula in the report that returns first day of last month. Insert the original report as a Subreport and link this formula field to the date prompt in the Subreport. This method will completely get rid of the prompt as the value is automatically passed to a subreport. If the existing report already contains a subreport then you can't use this method anyway.

A few questions about auditing

Hi all,
I am new to auditing, my manager asked me to make a report on how our database is audited including audit levels, tables and users audited etc. After some research I found about AUD$ table and views associated with it. I also found about table auditing(session/access) but I could not make any clear ideas out of these info. Also I made some tests and I could not get any assuring results. First I want to tell you what I did:
I enabled auiditing on the fnd_user table(test instance, 9.2.0.8) on select and update using TOAD. However after making many selects and updates I can not find any audit info in either audit trail or AUD$ table and views using it. After this I turned on all other statements'(alter, delete, grant etc.) auditing and switched between ACCESS and SESSION but to no good. What am I missing, why is there no trail of these actions?
Second, I have been inspecting the AUD$ table, there is recent data in it which consists of drop and truncate info mostly. I used a query to determine which objects have auditing enabled but there are none other than the fnd_user which I just enabled. What makes this data to be populated in the AUD$ table and how can I alter this?
Lastly, what are the possibilities of efficient auditing on the tables, users and schemas I want?
Any advices will be most appreciated.
Thanks and regards
Burak

Hi,
Thanks for the fast replies.
The output of show parameter audit is:
NAME TYPE VALUE
audit_file_dest string ?/rdbms/audit
audit_sys_operations boolean FALSE
audit_trail string NONE
transaction_auditing boolean TRUE
audit_trail is not boolean, what are the values it can get? transaction_auditing is enabled, how can I make use of this, and what are the differences between the three types of auditing?
Also I will be very happy if someone could tell me what populates the data in AUD$ table although the auditing is disabled?
Thanks and regards

Error while trying to start Audit Collector on the Audit Vault Server 10g

Hi,
We are trying to build a demo environment for testing Oracle Audit Vault 10g but we are having some trouble.
Our environment is like this: Oracle Audit Vault Server is installed on Windows Server 2003 SP2, while the Audit Vault Agent is installed on an Oracle 10g Release 2 database which resided on Windows server 2003 SP1. This two Windows Server machines are both installed as virtual machines.
We have successfully created the Agent and the Collector on Audit Vault Server and the Agent starts successfully while when we try to start the collector we get an error which says " Http Communication error: Http Communication error: 500" and the collector does not start.
We are new to the Audit Vault Software so we would really appreciate some help on how to resolve this issue because we have got stuck here and can not go on with our work.
Thanks in advance for your time
Best regards

Hi,
Thanks again for all of your replies but now we are getting another error with the OSAUD collector. We are able to add the collector successfully by using the avorcldb all_collector command.
Source database is 10g R2 (10.2.1) and we configured it for collecting the audit records in the OS audit trail by using the following statement: ALTER SYSTEM SET AUDIT_TRAIL=OS SCOPE=SPFILE;, and the SHOW PARAMETER AUDIT command returns the following values :
NAME TYPE VALUE
audit_file_dest string C:\ORACLE\PRODUCT\10.2.0\ADMIN
\<db_name>\ADUMP
audit_sys_operations boolean TRUE
audit_trail string OS
We don't know if the values set for the audit_file_dest is correct but after we start working on the database and execute some statements Oracle is not creating any files on this destinations while for the same statements when the Audit_trail=DB, EXTENDED the audit values for these statements are written in the appropriate table.
So we do not know if this is the cause but when we try to start the OSAUD collector defined on the Audit Vault Server it can not start and gives us the follwing error: "could not start collector OSAUD_Collector for source <source name>, directory access error for C:\ORACLE\PRODUCT\10.2.0\ADMIN\<db_name>\ADUMP".
Sorry for the message being so long but we really need some help with this issue.
thanks in advance.
