Solaris/Linux Reports 6i modify object names from command line

We are running Solaris 2.6 and are converting Reports from 3 to 6i.
We want to change the name of certain objects at the command line, preferably in batch mode.
Any help gratefully received.

Looks like the command is being split in some way - the connection to sqlplus is being made before it completes the whole string
It appears to be seeing the @instance_name as a script to execute rather than a db to connect to.
Is the database on the same server as the script?
If so, try setting your environment to the correct databsae, so that you can omit the @instance_name part of the syntax and see if it helps
Also just noticed the failure to open the decrypt script. It would appear uyou are not using a full path name. Have you checked which directroy the scheduled job starts in? You may need to look at running some environment specific scripts first.

Create an Application Object schedule from command line?

Hi everyone - long-time lurker, first-time poster here.
Is there a way create an availability schedule for an Application Object via a command line (or any other programmatic method)? The utilities I've obtained from Cool Solutions are great for replicating AOs (Application Objects) and setting certain properties, but none of them seem to have a method of creating a schedule that you would otherwise create within the AO's property book via Availability > Schedule. BTW, we are using Zen 6.5.
We have a rollout around the corner for which there are several AOs that drive the process, and we are going to have an instance of each of these AOs for every target group (of which there are dozens), and each group will have their own distinct schedule. The schedules are basically going to be "wait until day X to become available and then remain available for the next 2 months".
For some of the AOs we can use the Schedule Type of Range of days, which is not so terrible to set manually because you just specify a start date and an end date. But most of the AOs must have the Schedule Type of Specified days in order to ensure they do not ever launch during business hours; manually selecting 60 days from the date picker for a single instance is a daunting task, and I shudder at the thought of having to do so for dozens of AO instances.
I believe that the field in the ZENworks database that corresponds with an Application Object's schedule has a data type of Binary (which may be why there doesn't seem to be an existing solution), but does anyone have any ideas for accomplishing what I'm talking about?
Thanks in advance,
Gavin

Just to clarify, you want:
Range of days, start date, end date. Nothing fancier than that?
- Anders Gustafsson (Sysop)
The Aaland Islands (N60 E20)
In a perfect world this is what I would like to be able to do:
For the AOs where we're going to use the "Range of Days" schedule type, be able to specify the start date, end date and also the days of the week when we do not want it to run (or just the days we do want it, if easier).
For the AOs with the "Specified days" schedule type, we would like to add (or remove) a specific date, and optionally be able to specify that Start Time and End Time that applies to the dates. As for adding multiple dates, I was planning on having a script that enumerates all the dates in our desired range, and for each date in the range it would call the utility with that date passed as a parameter to add it or remove it.
If all of the above is too much to put together then I would not complain if it is only partially fulfilled. To be honest I would not mind building a mechanism myself that could handle this, it's just that I don't know where to start. I'd be happy to take a crack at it if someone could point me in the right direction for how to send commands to the database (or directory).
Thank you again for your help.

Opening a file after typing its name from command line?

OK it's been a real long while since I did any Java hacking, how can I do this again?
Here's some source I have from a book.
//ReadTextFile.java
// open the text file
import java.io.File;
import java.io.FileNotFoundException;
import java.lang.IllegalStateException;
import java.util.NoSuchElementException;
import java.util.Scanner;
public class ReadTextFile
private Scanner input;
// enable user to open file
public void openFile()
try
input = new Scanner ( new File ("myfile.txt"));
} //end try
catch ( FileNotFoundException fileNotFoundException )
System.err.println( "Error opening file.");
System.exit(1);
} // end catch
} // end method openFile
// read records from file
public void readRecords()
int callID;
try
while (input.hasNext() )
callID = input.nextInt();
System.out.println(callID);
} // end while
} //end try
catch ( NoSuchElementException elementException )
System.err.println ("File improperly formed.");
input.close();
System.exit(1);
} // end catch
catch ( IllegalStateException stateException )
System.err.println ("Error reading from file." );
System.exit(1);
} // end catch
} // end method readRecords
// close file and terminate app
public void closeFile()
if (input != null )
input.close(); // close file
} // end method closeFile
} // end class ReadTextFile
//ReadTextFileTest.java
public class ReadTextFileTest
public static void main( String args[] )
ReadTextFile application = new ReadTextFile();
application.openFile();
application.readRecords();
application.closeFile();
} // end main
} // end class
So at the command line I wanna do "java ReadTextFileTest openthisfile.txt" or whatever and have it open and read in some stuff from that file instead of hard coding it into the input = new Scanner ( new File ("myfile.txt")); line in the ReadTextFile.java
I'm sure it's pretty simple but like I said, very rusty.

Yeah I figured it out by just passing args[0] into the openFile method. I dunno what was wrong with my brain yesterday, I was typing arg[0] instead of args[0] and not seeing it. One of those days.

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.

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?

Environment : Oracle 9i Report Builder on WinNT

Ramanan

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

Query runs from command line, but not from scheduler

We use Control-M to schedule shell scripts to be run on a Solaris server. Some of the scripts have to access an Oracle database and in that case our security team will include the DB user and password in the script, then encrypt it and the sys admin team schedules the encrypted shell script with Control-M. That works fine, but we've been trying to have the DB user and password on a separate encrypted file so that we don't have to ask for file encryption every time it's necessary to modify a script (this is a test environment).
We have the script at ~/system_name/scripts, the query at ~/system_name/sql and the encrypted file and key at ~/system_name/keys. The SQLPlus call in the script is:
${ORACLE_HOME}/bin/sqlplus "`decrypt -a 3des -k ./../keys/key.3des.system -i ./../keys/login.system`"@instance_name <<EOF
@${DIR_SQL}/TEST_QUERY.SQL
quit
EOF
The security analyst has tested is successfully from command line, but when we schedule it with Control-M the job abends and we get the following in the sysout:
+ decrypt -a 3des -k ./../keys/key.3des.system -i ./../keys/login.system
decrypt: cannot open ./../keys/key.3des.system
decrypt: invalid key.
+ /u00/app/oracle/product/11.1.0/db_1/bin/sqlplus @instance_name

RefreshKrb5Config=true from command line JVM argument

Can we set refreshKrb5Config=true from command line JVM argu,ent like we set java.security.krb5.conf using -D option ? We are not using jass config file.

doubled the amount of code!If the code size is measured in the number of lines. More subtle size measurements are also conceivable.
Once in the past we got a new boss who introduced an exact measurement for the programmers' efficiency based on the statistics taken from the cvs (Concurrent Versioning System) repository.
Soon the colleagues began to comment out whole code blocks and reintroduce them instead of simply modifying them. Thus the number of the code lines changed by them skyrocketed.
There was a nice guy there. During his studies, he used to be the system & network administrator at a hostel for students of the electrical engineering faculty at the technical university. We feel it must have been a nice job. We plain programmers used Linux as desktop OS, but he used Solaris: even good old Linux was not good enough for him. (Windows? Naturally out of question!) I put up a big fight with our chief until I persuaded him to allow the Exchange server's supporting the standard (non-proprietary) mailing protocols, so that we were able to use the mailing infrastructure from our Linux and his Solaris boxes albeit without the calendar functions.
Well, this guy was an expert for difficult technical questions, he engineered the site-wide single-sign-on system etc. When he perused a piece of code, he shrank it by eliminating obsolete methods, by refactoring parallel ones etc. His measured output was negative...

Error while running a Discoverer Workbook with parameter from command line

I am trying to run a discoverer report from command line and export the results in xls on to my local machine. I could do it fine for a simple workbook, but if I add a parameter(madatory) to the workbook and run it from command line specifying the parameter value I wanted to run the report for, I do not get any results. Here is the command line I am using.
dis51usr.exe /connect user/password@database /apps_user /apps_responsibility "System Administrator" /eul EUL_US /open C:\Disco\Test.DIS /sheet Testsheet /parameter Period Jan-07 /export xls C:\Disco\X.xls /batch
Parameter value is entered in correct format(Jan-07).
When I removed /batch from this to see if I get any error, Discoverer Desktop opened up, logged in and gets terminated saying 'Oracle Discoverer Desktop has encountered a problem and need to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience.'
Did anybody come across this issue before?

Hello,
If you have a few minutes, Windows is also aborting for me:
the differences are, my situation is:
a) am running the command line from a .bat file
b) am NOT running with parms, want the discoverer query to come up for the user
c) am running a query from the database
i am signing in as myself BUT running a query that was created by a generic user called SREG
c) if i run the .bat file from Windows Explorer, the query opens fine
d) if i execute the .bat file from within Microsoft Access using the shell command,
the query opens and then aborts RIGHT BEFORE the parm screen would display
e) btw, if i modify the .bat file, to run a query from MY database signon, then (d) - running .bat file
from vb using SHELL command works
Do you have a ideas as to why (d) does not work? I would be very grateful for your time, tx, sandra
this is what i posted yesterday, tx: Re: Running Discoverer command line

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!

SQL Developer BRIDGE command from command line on Windows environment

Is it possible to call SQL Developer BRIDGE command from command line on Windows environment?

Hi <please supply your name>,
SQL Developer Worksheet is not available from the command line.
The BRIDGE command is only supported in the Worksheet.
Its an interesting idea though. Are you trying to script data move from a non Oracle database to an Oracle database using the BRIDGE command?
The BRIDGE command was initially done to allow a simple data move from a non Oracle database to Oracle. We then build the "Copy to Oracle" feature out of it.
http://dermotoneill.blogspot.com/2010/11/cross-database-bridge-statement.html
http://dermotoneill.blogspot.com/2010/11/copy-to-oracle.html
Since the BRIDGE command references connection names, which have to be defined in UI of SQL Developer any solution to run this on the command line would have to work this out.
There are number of ways you can do this without using the BRIDGE command.
1) Perform a capture/convert of your non Oracle database and then generate the "offline" data move scripts.
Theses scripts use SQL*Loader and your non Oracle database tool (Ex: Sybase BCP).
These are run from the command line and can be modified ....
2) Use a database link from your Oracle database to your non Oracle database and reference /query the data that way.
I would interested to hear your thoughts.
Regards,
Dermot
