Critical error when running BEX

Hi,
My students are getting a critical error when running BEX analyser (excel shuts down). I understand there is a patch for BEX .... where can I find it?
Thanks, Ed

Dear Ed,
The reason for the Critical Error could be the usage of older Patch.
The Latest BEx Client can be found in the SMP at following location :
service.sap.com/swdc
->SAP Software Distribution Center
->Download
->Support Packages and Patches
   ->Entry by Application Group
   ->SAP Frontend Components
    ->BI ADDON FOR SAP GUI
     ->BI 7.0 ADDON FOR SAP GUI 7.10
Hope this helps you.

Error when running a report in BPC NW

I am getting the following error when running a report for my application in BPC NW.
EVDRE encountered an error retrieving data from the Web Server (retrying in (X) seconds).
This error comes with this dialog option box to either continue or cancel retrying retrieving data. Retrying doesn't help either.
Any report I run (on any of my appsets), I get this error. I used the EVDRE function and also tried running a report using the template as the basis. But I get the error either way.
Does anyone know why this error is occurs or how to debug this issue. I saw some information about this in earlier threads but could not make much out of it.
Appreciate any assistance.

Sanjay,
This is a very generic error...Couple of places to look for....
1)Reprocess the application (Modify application + Reassign SQL Index + Process Application)
2)optimizing the application sometimes helps (Full Optimize + Compress Database + Index defragmentation).
3)Create a "evdataserver_debug.txt" in user's private publication folder on server side to populate very detail level logging and check the log on client side EVDRE_LOG.txt for further peek into where things are getting messed up.
if evdataserver_debug.txt does not get populated on BPC 5.x...it is an issue with IIS authetication on Application server.
4)You have to check the event viewer into .NET server and also the BPC logs which can be found into
BPC\Logging for further details ..
Hope this helps..

Arithmetic overflow error

Hi all,
The below is suppose to generate random dates but I receive the following error:
Msg 8115, Level 16, State 2, Line 7
Arithmetic overflow error converting expression to data type datetime.
SQL Below - if is this happening?
DECLARE
@MinDate INT, @MaxDate INT;
DECLARE
@RANGE INT = DATEDIFF(DD, @MinDate, @MaxDate);
SET @MaxDate =20141212
SET @MinDate = 20140101
SELECT CONVERT(DATE, DATEADD(DD, ROUND(RAND(CAST(NEWID() AS VARBINARY)) * @RANGE,0,-1), @MinDate));

Reason is because you've declared variable as int. An integer value of 0 represents a base date of 19000101. SO maximum possible integer value you can convert to date is 2958463 which is why it throws error for values 20141212,20140101
etc
convert them to string and they all work fine
DECLARE
@MinDate INT, @MaxDate INT;
SET @MaxDate =20141212
SET @MinDate = 20140101
DECLARE
@RANGE INT = DATEDIFF(DD,CAST( @MinDate AS varchar(8)), CAST(@MaxDate AS varchar(8)));
SELECT CONVERT(DATE, DATEADD(DD, ROUND(RAND(CAST(NEWID() AS VARBINARY)) * @RANGE,0,-1), CAST(@MinDate AS varchar(8))));

Arithmetic Overflow error converting float to data type numeric

Hi,
Am facing strange issue,I have function which returns money datatype and assigning the return money value to float datatype in table.
Error msg:
Msg 8115, Level 16, State 6, Procedure GBCalcCatalogPriceNewV2, Line 204
Arithmetic overflow error converting float to data type numeric.
The statement has been terminated.
Strange thing is the same stored procedure is working fine in production environment,but in the deveopment i see this error.Am scared if the same happens in the production environment.Please advice and advance
thanks
Regards
RAj

Strange thing is the same stored procedure is working fine in production environment,
How could that be strange? This is an error that occurs depending on the data. Accidents that are waiting to happen will happen sooner or later.
Then again, a development database may be more prone to such errors, because data that entered are completely out of whack with real life data. Still it is a warning sign. If you have some place where you convert data from float to numeric, you must consider
the risk that the float value is outside the range for the numeric data type. How do you prevent that from happening? Maybe a CHECK constraint on the column? Of if the data origins from a money column, use a numeric data type with sufficient precision.

ORA-06502 - Error when running "Ask The Expert 0.9"

Hi ,
I successfully installed "Ask the Expert" package with Apex 3.0 on Oracle 10g Database 10.2.0.1.0. No error ocurred during the import in my Apex environment.
Besides that, i'm having problems when i tried to run the "Aks the Expert". It always shows the following message errors:
ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: character string buffer too small
Error Unable to write activity log.
I think it was a problem with APEX instalation, but i could run the Sample Application of Apex without any problem.
I opened an SR in Metalink, but to my surprise, the analist of support don't know what's wrong with the demo "Ask de Expert".
The debug function of the application show the following commands before the error ocurrs:

ORA-04062 error when running forms with different users

ORA-04062 error when running forms with different users
I have a form that has a block that should display some data from another users tables. (The other user's name is dynamic, it's selected from a list box)
I wrote a stored procedure to get the data from other user's tables.
When I compile the form and run it with the same user I compiled, it works without any error. But when I run the compiled form with another user I get the ORA-04062 (signature of procedure has been changed) error.
I tried setting REMOTE_DEPENDENCIES_MODE to SIGNATURE in init.ora but it didn't help.
My Forms version is 6i with Patch 15.
Database version is 9.
Here is my stored procedure:
TYPE Scenario_Tab IS TABLE OF NUMBER(34) INDEX BY BINARY INTEGER;
TYPE Open_Curs IS REF CURSOR;
PROCEDURE Get_Scenarios(User_Name IN VARCHAR2, Scen_Table OUT Scenario_Tab) IS
Curs Open_Curs;
i NUMBER;
BEGIN
OPEN Curs FOR
'SELECT Seq_No FROM '|| User_Name ||'.scenario';
i := 1;
LOOP
FETCH Curs INTO Scen_Table(i);
EXIT WHEN Curs%NOTFOUND;
i := i + 1;
END LOOP;
END Get_Senarios;
I would be happy to solve this problem. It's really important.
Maybe somebody can tell me another way to do what I want to do. (getting a list of values from another users tables)

I think it should be a better solution to create a package,
and put your own TYPES and procedure into it.
CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE PKG_XXX IS
TYPE TYP_TAB_CHAR IS TABLE OF .... ;
PROCEDURE P_XX ( Var1 IN VARCHAR2, var2 IN OUT TYP_TAB_CHAR );
END ;
Then in your Form :
Declare
var PKG_XXX.TYP_TAB_CHAR ;
Begin
PKG_XXX.P_XX( 'user_name', var ) ;
End ;

Getting error when running process flows in oem

Hi all,
I'm trying to run a process flow in oem (using oem_exec_template.sql script), but it keeps failing with error "nms-1013: sqlplus does not exist". I tried running a map too and it failed with same message.
Any idea anyone?
Thanks!

Hi,
Looks like you have an obvious code error, invalid cast operation in your code. Do you get this error when running in local emulator.
You can try the following article on how to debug published cloud service, assuming you have VS ultimate.

Arithmetic Overflow Errors

I remember that when Java was first introduced, one of the major design goals of the language was to eliminate common programmer errors. For example, instead of trusting the programmer to read the documentation of a given function to learn that they needed to test for a negative return value as an error, java included a very rigorous exception handling requirement. The developer who wrote a method would declare which exceptions it could throw and those using the method were required to account for those exceptions.
I'm now starting to work with Java on a full time basis and was reviewing the arithmetic rules. I couldn't believe it when I discovered that overflowing an integer value doesn't cause an arithmetic overflow error!
Am I missing something, or is that a major deviation from the stated language design goals?!

Am I missing something, or is that a major deviation from the stated language design goals?!Your design goals are a little off. Nobody aimed to make Java to be usable without reading the docs/specs. They aimed at keeping things simple and cleanly designed, not exactly as self-explanatory. There are many things in the JLS that aren't.

CAST( (DriveFreeSizeMB/DriveTotalSizeMB)* 100 AS NUMERIC(5,2))
As
[PercentFree] ,[DateRecorded] FROM
SELECT SUBSTRING([physical_name],1,1) AS Drivename,
CAST(((SUM(COALESCE(size,0)))*8)/1024 AS NUMERIC(20,2)) AS DriveTotalSizeMB,
CAST(((SUM( COALESCE( FILEPROPERTY( [name],'SpaceUsed'),0)))*8)/1024 AS NUMERIC(20,2)) AS DataSizedUsedMB,
CAST(((SUM(COALESCE(size,0))-SUM(COALESCE(fileproperty([name],'spaceused'),0)))*8/1024)AS NUMERIC(20,2)) AS DriveFreeSizeMB
,SYSDATETIME() AS [DateRecorded]
FROM sys.master_files
GROUP BY SUBSTRING([physical_name],1,1)) AS Data
it was executive one server with out error but the same select statement is writing antoher server iam geeting belo error.
"@ErrorDesc: Line 24 - Line 13- Arithmetic overflow error converting expression to data type int."
how to slove this issue..
please help me...

Change 8 to 8E0, to make it a float literal. The data type of
SUM(COALESCE(size,0)))*8)
is int, since all components are int, and it can easily overflow the size for an int. If you use 8E0, you get a float, and the entire expression will be float.

Arithmetic overflow error converting expression to data type int. Why in this case?

Hi guys, it is Friday and I am really tired but..
WITH CTE AS (
SELECT LEN(CONS_ID) AS PROCA FROM TryCons)
SELECT SUM(PROCA) FROM CTE
Why I retrieve
Arithmetic overflow error converting expression to data type int.
Len should returns a number and so sum should work. It can be because I am trying to read 500 millions rows? But it wouldn't make sense..

If the average length of the field exceeds 4.29, that statement will explode. Since I don't know what's in CONS_ID, I can't say whether it makes sense or not. Although, I will have to say that from my uninitiated position, this seems like an
accident to happen.
