Can anybody provide the SQL query to find the files uploaded in a particular folder?

Hi All,
Can anybody provide the SQL query to find the documents (document name) uploaded in a particular folder? While clicking on folder in
GUI I'm hitting the Timeout error. I would like to find the files uploaded into this folder from SQLPLUS.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
With best regards,
Nevin

Nevin,
Be great if we could know the version of Portal. For Rel. 1, here's the query
select id,masterthingid from wwv_things
where siteid = &site
and cornerid = &corner
&site - Content Area id
&corner - Folder id
if you don't know the folder id, use
select id from wwv_corners where siteid = &site
and name = &folder
Hope this helps. I have run into this situation before. Usually, the culprits were
one of the following:
1. Junk Characters in description of item (caused due to Copy-Paste)
2. Special Characters in the File name

Columns are different, when the contain multiple distinct values.
SELECT COUNT(DISTINCT Name) ,
COUNT(DISTINCT GroupName) ,
COUNT(*)
FROM HumanResources.Department;
Without a concise and complete example (table DDL and sample data insert statements), it's hard to tell what the correct solution could be..
DECLARE @Sample TABLE ( SetID INT, ServerID INT, ApplicationID INT );
INSERT INTO @Sample
VALUES ( 1, 1, 1 ),
( 1, 1, 1 ),
( 2, 1, 1 ),
( 2, 1, 2 ),
( 3, 1, 1 ),
( 3, 2, 1 );

SELECT S.*,

CASE WHEN E.Applications != 1 THEN 1 ELSE 0 END AS ApplicationsDifferent
FROM @Sample S
INNER JOIN Evaluate E ON S.SetID = E.SetID

Sql query to find out last update of 6 hours

i have table emp . for Exp.
create table emp
(empno number(5),
ename varchar2(20),
last_update date );
Now i want the all data which is update in last 6 hours

Assuming an INDEX, WHERE Last_Update > SysDate - 6/24; is better and clearer.
It is better because it allows INDEX use. That is because it does not manipulate the COLUMN value.
It is clearer because it clearly states what we want, the records where Last_Update is after a value of six hours before. In the other query, we are checking for records where Last_Updated minus six hours is after current time. Personally, I find that harder to follow.
SQL> CREATE TABLE Emp(EmpNo NUMBER(5), EName VARCHAR(20), Last_Update DATE);
Table created.
SQL> CREATE INDEX Emp_Last_Update ON Emp(Last_Update);

The last word always shifts to the next line when published?

When I layout the page in iweb08 it looks great, when I publish it the last word in a sentence (no matter how short the sentence) is on a separate line. I have tried everything to change this but no luck.
http://www.thestraydogsrock.com is the website. The bottom blue area where it says "August 16, 2009......." is the problem line. This is a standard iweb template.

What I can think of is pretty obvious so you've probably already tried it.
In case you haven't: just make the text box bigger. Slide the right side more to the right.
Or is there a ghost image knocking into it somehow?

How to find the last execute query

Hi, Is there a way to find the last executed query of report?
Thanks
Aali
Edited by: aali on 22-Feb-2010 06:39

Hi,
if you hold the necessary privileges, you might find the SQL in the shared pool:
select last_active_time, parse_calls, disk_reads, buffer_gets, cpu_time, end_of_fetch_count, executions, plsql_exec_time, sql_text
from V$SQLSTATS
where sql_text like '% some distinctive string %'
order by last_active_time desc;if you insert some meaningful string in form of comment inside the query itself, say /* report #1 on page 3 */
you may be able to track it down more easily.
select last_active_time, parse_calls, disk_reads, buffer_gets, cpu_time, end_of_fetch_count, executions, plsql_exec_time, sql_text
from V$SQLSTATS
where sql_text like '% report #1 on page 3 %'
order by last_active_time desc;Bye

How do I find the overall database size?
The biggest portion of a database's size comes from the datafiles. To find out how many megabytes are allocated to ALL datafiles:
select sum(bytes)/1024/1024 "Meg" from dba_data_files;
To get the size of all TEMP files:
select nvl(sum(bytes),0)/1024/1024 "Meg" from dba_temp_files;
To get the size of the on-line redo-logs:
select sum(bytes)/1024/1024 "Meg" from sys.v_$log;
Putting it all together into a single query:
select a.data_size+b.temp_size+c.redo_size "total_size"
from ( select sum(bytes) data_size
from dba_data_files ) a,
( select nvl(sum(bytes),0) temp_size
from dba_temp_files ) b,
( select sum(bytes) redo_size
from sys.v_$log ) c;
Another query ("Free space" reports data files free space):
col "Database Size" format a20
col "Free space" format a20
select round(sum(used.bytes) / 1024 / 1024 ) || ' MB' "Database Size"
, round(free.p / 1024 / 1024) || ' MB' "Free space"
from (select bytes from v$datafile
union all
select bytes from v$tempfile
union all
select bytes from v$log) used
, (select sum(bytes) as p from dba_free_space) free
group by free.p
This is what I use :P From http://www.orafaq.com/wiki/Oracle_database_FAQ#How_do_I_find_the_overall_database_size.3F

Function to find the Last Date of Month One Year Ago - RETURNS ERROR

I've written sql code which takes a date and finds the Last Day of the Month one year ago. For example, it takes the date '2015-04-17' and returns the date '2014-04-30'. The code works fine in a query. Now I'm trying to turn this into a function. However,
when I try to create the function I get the error:
Operand type clash: date is incompatible with int
Why is this error being returned?
Here is my function:
CREATE FUNCTION dbo.zEOM_LY_D(@Input Date)
       RETURNS date
AS
BEGIN;
DECLARE @Result date;
SET @Result = convert(DATE, DATEADD(s,-1,DATEADD(mm, DATEDIFF(m,0,dateadd(m, -11, @Input)+1),0)),101)
    RETURN @Result;
END;
Thanks for any help you can give.


Stan,
Thanks very much- that does the trick. I should have said I am using SQL 2008 so EOMONTH is not available to me. I still don't get why I got an error though, since I was treating a date like a date and not like an int.
Thanks, John
I think i found the issue but i do not know why it is causing the issue. i think may be the way dates are treated/stored internally..i think dates are stored as no of days after 0001/01/01 but cannot see how this cwould effect..may be somebody else can through
some light.....
if you make it as datetime it will work,
if you leave it as date - eliminate adding 1... you should prefer to use dateadd to add/substract dates.
try this to understand..
--removed the +1 in the code
declare @input date
set @input ='20150503'
select
convert(DATE, DATEADD(s,-1,DATEADD(mm,DATEDIFF(m,0,dateadd(m, -11, @Input)),0)),101)
go
--made the datatype as datetime
declare @input datetime
set @input ='20150503'
select
convert(DATE, DATEADD(s,-1,DATEADD(mm,DATEDIFF(m,0,dateadd(m, -11, @Input)+1),0)),101)
Hope it Helps!!
