Sub-roadmap names
Hi,
I'm currently working on ESS scenario for IT0573 for Australia (Absences).
When the names for the subroad map nodes are changed in the FPM, they do not seem to reflect on the screen. Initially the names were POPUP1 and POPUP2, then changed to 'Leave Choice' and 'Further Leave Choice' respectively. However, the changes are not reflected and the names displayed on the screen remain as POPUP1 and POPUP2.
How can this issue be resolved?
Regards,
Shwetha Sekhar.
Hi Shwetha,
Check how are names coming for Sub road map in Cc component.
I am sure that it should be solved if you change the texts in corresponding .xlf files
Make sure that changes are done in default .xlf file and _en.xlf file.

I am in the process of designing a website-on-a-CD. In order to make things easier for my clients, I decided to organize this site into local sub-directories with an index.html page in each one. However, when I try to enter the local sub-directory name, followed by a forward-slash, the index page does not open automatically. Instead, I get a raw directory listing that includes the index.html file, and anything else that is present within it. I would like to know if there is any way to force this page to load automatically within Firefox from a local storage medium as it would load from a web-server.
You need to use file:// as the protocol instead of C:/. The latter may never work (C:\ might).
Where is the main HTML located ?
Easiest if to store the images in a sub folder of the location because you can't go back via ../ beyond that root location for security reasons.

Hi
I'm trying to include a page to submit bugs in my app and I'd like to include LOVs for the tab and sub-tab names, since the users never see the page numbers. Anyone know how I can query for them in my LOV definitions?
Thx
DerekAs Anton said, the best thing is to store your custom headings in a table so that you can use the table for your LOV as well as for your report headings.
To use dynamic report headings, you can use the 'PL/SQL function body returning colon-delimited headings' feature on the Report Attributes page.
So, if your report headings are stored in table t that function body can be
declare
l_headings varchar2(4000)
begin
for rec in (select heading from t) loop
l_headings := l_headings||':'||rec.heading;
end loop;
return ltrim(l_heading,':');
end;Hope this helps. -
How to find out sub site name from which sub site template is created - in solution gallery
hi,
i am having an issue in my "save site as a template". i have created a subsite few weeks back with doc libs and splists, disc.forum and based on the template subsite I have created new subsites. now
as per my new requirement i need to add new doclibs and few columns in these doc lib. But I am unable to find which sub site was taken as a template.since i have many subsites with different names, I forgott
to make meaningful names, i gave some datetime for the templatesubsites,
like project_27_jul_2pm,project_20_jul_7pm, etc etc.
So would like to know, is it possible to find out from which subsite I have taken/prepared the template subsite.
any APIs are available or any power shell scripts. such that i can find out from which subsite i have created this sub site template.check this

Query to retrieve the 'My Favorites' sub folder names from InfoView
Please help me with the query which can get all the folder names present in 'My Favorites' in the InfoView, and also query to get all the folder names in 'Public Folders' for the current user?
ThanksTo get all the folders under Public Folders accessible by current user:
1. Logon as that user.
2. Run the query: select * from ci_infoobjects where si_kind='folder' and si_parentid=0; This only returns the top level folders. To get the subfolders within these folders, you need to make a recursive call changing si_parentid. Si_parentid=0 stands for root, change it with SI_ID of folder for which you are trying to find subfolders. To run the query and get results the user may need some access at the root level ( not granted for a general user by default, granted only for administrator)
The folders or objects listed under My Favorites are contents of a user's favorite or personal folder and a user should have full access to it by default. To retrieve contents of that:
select si_id from ci_infoobjects where si_kind='favoritesfolder' and si_name='<user name>' which will give a User's favorite folder and SI_ID of it.
then call:
Select * from ci_infoobjects where si_parentid=<SI_ID obtained from previous query>
will list all the top level objects, folders in a user's favorite folder. -
Main Safari Discussion list needs wider column(s) or sub forum name change

Crystal Report Viewer 11.5 Java SDK - How to set sub report parameter value
Good day!
I have a report with 3 sub-reports in the detail section. Main report has two parameters and each sub-report has one parameter in turn. We have our own JSP to receive parameter values from the user. I am using the following code to do the parameter value setting later into the report. Parameter value setting works for main report, but not for the sub-report.
I get an Error, for the first sub-report, from the viewer saying:
The parameter 'parametername' does not allow null values
On this article: [article link|http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/com.sap.km.cm.docs/oss_notes_boj/sdn_oss_boj_bi/sap%28bd1lbizjptawmq==%29/bc/bsp/spn/scn_bosap/notes%7B6163636573733d36393736354636443646363436353344333933393338323636393736354637333631373036453646373436353733354636453735364436323635373233443330333033303331333233313337333233323331%7D.do]
It says to set the report name of the parameter field to the name of the sub report. On this aspect, assuming this tip/solution works, I would like to read the names of the sub-reports and their parameter names. I do not want to hard-code them into our application.
Here is my current code:
sdk.occa.report.data.Fields parameterFields = new Fields();
I have a HashMap of <parameterName, parameterValue>
Iterate through the map
report.data.ParameterField aParameterField = new ParameterField();
aParameterField.setReportName(""); //main report
report.data.Values theValues = new Values();
ParameterFieldDiscreteValue aParameterFieldDiscreteValue = new ParameterFieldDiscreteValue();
aParameterFieldDiscreteValue.setValue (aValue);
theValues.add(aParameterFieldDiscreteValue);
aParameterField.setName(parameterName)
aParameterField.setCurrentValues(theValues);
parameterFields.add(aParameterField);
viewer.setParameterFields(parameterFields);
Please look at the line:
aParameterField.setReportName(""); //main report
Here's where I would like to say
if (parameter is subreport's parameter) then setReportName(subreport name);
ThxIt was little difficult to navigate down the objects to find the sub reports and their parameters. I am attaching the code:
May be there are other ways to do the same.
public String getReportNameForParameter (String parameterName, ReportClientDocument reportClientDoc)
String result = "";
boolean found = false;
try {
SubreportController src = reportClientDoc.getSubreportController();
DataDefController ddc = reportClientDoc.getDataDefController();

How to select Subpartition name in a Select query?
Hi,
I have a table that is partitioned on date range and subpartitioned based on and ID list. Lets assume the table name is something like: MY_TABLE
The partition name would look like: P_20110126160527
The subpartition list is as follows: GB, IN, AU, US etc. The sub partition name for GB would look like
P_20110126160527_GB
I need to run a select query to fetch data from MY_TABLE along with Sub partition name. The result set needs to look like:
Name|Location|SubPartition
Sam|UK|P_20110126160527_GB
Tom|UK|P_20110126160527_GB
Dave|AU|P_20110126160527_AU
The data available in ALL_TAB_SUBPARTITIONS and USER_TAB_SUBPARTITIONS can't be used just because the only join condition available is the TABLE Name but we would also have to join on SUBPARTITION KEY. I am not sure how to achieve this.
Does anyone here have a clue?In a pinch, you could do something like this.
select col1, col2, col3, 'PARTITION_1' from your_table where key_col in <values for partition_1>
union all
select col1, col2, col3, 'PARTITION_2' from your_table where key_col in <values for partition_2>
union all
select col1, col2, col3, 'PARTITION_3' from your_table where key_col in <values for partition_3>
union all
...Or better yet:
select col1, col2, col3, case when key_col = 'x' then 'PARTITION_1'
when key_col = 'y' then 'PARTITION_2'
when key_col = 'z' then 'PARTITION_3'
end
from ...Of course, none of these would be "dynamic". -
Invalid subreport name Error code:-2147483086
The setup used in this particular environment is to run reports via Crystal reports server 2008. We call the servers via the rassdk_java_dg_12_en and the setup works just fine BUT in one particular case.
The report that fails have a main report with a datasource to SQL. The report does have about 20 - 25 subreports mostly based on the same datasource. There are however 6 subreports that uses ttx files as datasources.
The report works fine when there is no data for the ttx subreports, but whenever a "change datasource" is tried to the ttx subreports the error "Invalid subreport name Error code:-2147483086" pops up.
We have done noumerous tests on the pojo approach in other reports so the technic and code works just fine - it most be some special case in the report.
Before we start to try to rebuild the report we will give you a chance to help us out. The report sucker is big and complex so a rebuild is not wanted...
Here is the particular code involved
private static void passPOJO(ReportClientDocument clientDoc,
ReportPojoHolder pojoHolder, String reportName)
throws ReportSDKException,ClassNotFoundException {
//Its a pojo data source, but it's nothing in it
if (pojoHolder.getPojos().size() == 0) {
return;
String reportTable = pojoHolder.getTableName();
Object pojo = pojoHolder.getPojos().iterator().next();
POJOResultSetFactory factory = new POJOResultSetFactory(pojo.getClass());
POJOResultSet resultSet = (POJOResultSet)factory.createResultSet(pojoHolder.getPojos());
if(reportName == null || reportName.equals("")) {
clientDoc.getDatabaseController().setDataSource(resultSet, reportTable, reportTable);
else {
System.err.println("Setting data in " + reportName );
//Here comes the error
clientDoc.getSubreportController().getSubreport(reportName).
getDatabaseController().setDataSource(resultSet, reportTable, reportTable);
Here is the stacktrace:
table: srptMainCustomerList;1, subrapport: AddressField
table: srptusrinf;1, subrapport: AdvisorName

at weblogic.servlet.internal.StubSecurityHelper$ServletServiI have been able to wrestle this down after a lot of frustrating work. The error had nothing to do with pojos at all. The error was simple a store procedure that did not reply nothing.
In the preparation of the subreport that did consist of the pojo data source. The report(server?) did send a "pre call" to the store procedure with NULL as parameters. The reply was unfortunately an "empty" reply. When we changed the reply to an empty result set it went pass the data sources.
The error message given on this was "Invalid subreport name"! Not very helpful at all.
I have used this new version for about 3 weeks now in a "proof of concept" work controlling if we would be able to upgrade from crystal 9/Harmoni to Crystal 2008/Crystal Report Server 2008. The answer will be yes. It will work. And with a minimum of report changes which is very nice.
What have struck me the most during this work is a few proposals to improvements.
1. Put the versions on jars and sdk's so it's obvious what's used. I spent a few days with an old version of a sdk believing that it was a newer than I already had. It should not be neccessary to go through a manifest file inside a jar in order to find out what the version is. Put it on the file names!
2. Give proper error messages back when something goes wrong. If a parameter value is missing. Send back the parameter that's missed/misses a value for Gods sake. The programmer catching the error most know what's missed hence the message. Would save the user's of the API very much time.
I spent about 5 - 10 days trying to find out what was wrong with my sub report name (This thread). It had nothing to do with the subreport name. It had to do with missing data from a called store procedure!
3. The documentation can be a bit tricky to find. I saw that you have given away a eclipse plugin in order to gather the documentation inside the IDE. That's a good approach.
If the error messages will be enhanced and more accurate it's a pretty handy api to work with. And the handling of unmanaged reports is a wet dream compared to usage of the Harmoni API. That's a real nightmare. The server seems to be very stable and just runs.
I like this forum, fast replies when one is stuck is extremely helpful!

How to change ASE server name in windows
how to change the server name in Adaptive server enterprise running on windows
Windows is going to require a few more steps if ASE is running as a service.
Update all registry entries containing <servername> with <newservername>:
HKLM\SOFTWARE\SYBASE\Server
HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\SYBSQL_<servername>[ _BS | _XP ]
NOTE: Doing a registry search on <servername> will bring up a ton of other locations, eg, legacy entries, ControlSet00X, etc ... not sure if all of these have to be changed, too ...
NOTE: Haven't installed any of the latest ASE packages in windows so don't know if SAP's gone an changed the HKLM\SOFTWARE sub-branch name from SYBASE to SAP
=========================
In addition to Ryan's notes:
- any other sysservers entries that refer to the old servername (eg, loopback)
- any remote servers would need to update their external/remote logins, remote servers and/or proxy definitions ... as appropriate
- if the ASE is involved in replication then you're looking at whole 'nother can of worms ... off the top of my head ... rs_databases, rs_idnames, rs_repdbs ... and of course any repdefs/subs that include the ASE name ?
- obviously (?) any monitoring/maintenance/operational jobs ... documentation ... -

Hey.
In Pages I'd like to indent my sub-heading in my table of contents.

Sub-Heading Name................3
Sub-Heading Name................4
Heading Name.......................6
Sub-Heading Name................3
Sub-Sub Heading Name..........4
But what I'd like is this:
Heading Name.......................1
Heading Name.......................3
Sub-Heading Name...........3
Sub-Heading Name...........4
Heading Name.......................6
Sub-Heading Name...........3
Sub-Sub Heading Nam.4
Can anyone tell me how to accomplish this?
Thank you in advance.Click on the subheads in the T.O.C. and drag in the left indent on the Ruler.

Changed folder name...photos are gone?? Cannot find them on HD anymore..?
I did not realize that the folder numbers in IPhoto were based on exact date to which they were taken. I renamed a folder and could no longer view the photos with IPhoto. I called Apple..they didn't really know what to do (great investment that was) and now I have completely lost all of my pictures by moving my IPhoto library and then deleating one of them because I then had two in different places on my computer. I cannot find any of the original photos at all now - even searching for every .jpg on my HD with spotlight. Is there anyway I can retrieve these pictures or am I going to have to upload all of them again from different CDs and edit all of them again??? Any kind of answer to this would be greatly appreciated as calling Apple has definitely not solved this problem. Thanks.
IMac G5 Mac OS X (10.4.3)renaud,
that is unfortunate, but I will leave you with info to help start again...
The first bit of info is help on importing images from folders on your hard drive in an organized way.
Importing Images from the hard drive, CD, or DVD
To import a folder with subfolders of images maintaining the same organizational structure (or close to it):
Drag the folder into iPhotos viewing area.
A film roll will be created with each sub folders name. To view the rolls in the Library you need to first go to the menu bar and choose View>by film rolls.
To make each roll into an Album, highlight the tile of the roll
Go to File>new album from selection.
You will now have an Album in the source column with the images from that roll. Do this for each roll if you want them to be an Album. This is your choice.
Next, go to the menu bar and hit File>new folder
Name this new folder with the year or whatever the name was of the Parent folder containing the subfolders that you had dragged into iPhotos viewing area.
Next drag all the Albums into the respective new Parent folder you just made.
Albums- collection of images from one roll or many rolls. The Albums will be listed in your source column when you make them. The albums only contain placeholders for the images that are still in the library. They are not duplicates.
Rolls- rolls are created when you import folder of images. It will be given the name of the folder you are importing.
Rolls are also created from each import from your camera. You are given the option to name the roll at import.
Folder-a folder you create manually using the File>new folder command
Folders can hold Albums, slideshows, books, another folder, etc.
One other way you can import a folder of images and have an Album created for it as the same time it is imported as a roll in the Library view:
Drag each folder of images into the source column of iPhoto. When you see the plus sign, drop it in the source column.
An album will be created in the source column, and the roll that the album was created from will be in the library view window.
The next info is just good things to know....
--First thing to know and remember is this...Do not drag any images, folder of images into the iPhoto Library in the Finder. Images have to be imported into iPhoto within the application. Do not scan images and save them into the iPhoto Library folder in the Finder. Save them to another location such as the Pictures folder or even the desktop. You can then import them into iPhoto.
If you have already put files/folders in the iPhoto Library folder in the Finder then you will also find out that if you try to import them into iPhoto you will get an error message. No worry, just drag them to the desktop and import from there.
--All images that you import are shown in the library view. You can choose how you want to view, by rolls, by date, by rating, etc. When you put images in an Album, slideshow, book, etc, you are actually just putting pointers to those images in the library. You are not adding more images. If you delete an image from the Album it will still be in the library. If you delete an image from the library it is deleted from iPhoto's database and your hard drive (unless you have it backed up somewhere else)
--You have a folder of images on your hard drive and want to import them into iPhoto. Drag the folder of images into an open iPhoto Library window and the folder of photos will be copied into the library, resulting in a new roll with the name of the folder. You now have two copies of those photos, the ones in iPhoto's database and the ones on your desktop. You can keep the ones on your desktop that you just imported as backup or you can delete that folder.
-- you scan a picture/pictures and save it in a folder. You cannot scan directly into iPhoto or the iPhoto Library folder in the Finder.
You want all your photos in iPhoto so you import them into iPhoto.
Now you have two copies of that picture/pictures, so you can delete the originals that were in the scanned folder and keep the one/ones that were imported into iPhoto.
-- You download pictures from your camera into iPhoto.
There is now one copy of each of the pictures. (DO NOT HAVE IPHOTO DELETE THE IMAGES FROM YOUR CAMERA! DELETE THEM MANUALLY WITH THE CAMERA-if something goes wrong with the import and they are never imported and then they are deleted from the camera you might end up losing those images)
You want to change something about a picture you imported, such as
cropping it or changing the size, or changing the orientation.
Once you do that to a picture, you now have two copies of the picture
in iPhoto, the original and the edited one. The edited one will be in the library organize view. The original is packed away in an Original folder in your iPhoto Library folder under the date of the roll. You can always revert to the original by control clicking on the photo and choose "revert to orginal" You will not have this choice if you used iPhoto Diet to get rid of the Originals.
(a quick note on cropping within iPhoto...when you are in edit mode, you automatically will be in the crop mode with cross hairs to highlight the crop area. To finish cropping you must click the crop button and then go back to library view and your cropped picture will be there.
3.You want to use Photoshop or another graphic program to edit a picture in your iPhoto library.
You can open up prefs for iPhoto and choose "when double clicking on
photo ..do" choose "other" and select Photoshop. Now you can edit all
pictures in your iPhoto library in PhotoShop by double clicking. If you save the photo with the same name and as a flattened file it will be saved right into iPhoto and you will see the changes. If you don't want to save it into iPhoto then do a "save as" and save to the desktop. You will then have the original photo still in iPhoto and your new edited photo on the desktop.
Or, with iPhoto open, you can drag a picture from the library window
to your desktop (you see a + sign on the pic you are dragging). You now
have two of the same picture, one in the iPhoto library and one on your desktop. You can open up the one on your desktop in any graphic program and work on it. The one in iPhoto stays the same. You can also share/export the picture/pictures to your desktop or folder to work on them or do batch processing, etc. You will still have the originals in your iPhoto Library.
Or, you can open up the ~/Pictures/iPhoto Library/folders and option drag any
picture out of the folder to your desktop. Notice that you will see a plus sign while dragging the photo. This is copying the file to your desktop
I would advise anyone not to do this as they might forget to use the option key and drag the photo out. Next time you open iPhoto the photo will be missing.
Two Apple kbs for you to read
Don't tamper with files in the iPhoto library folder
About the iPhoto Library folder
Don't forget that in Library view you can Control click on any picture and get a contextual menu with many options. One is to revert to original.
Good luck!

Importing Main Folders with Sub-folders
I am a new Mac user and I am trying to import my photos into iPhoto6.0. I have created main folders with sub-folders (eg. Main Folder = Holiday, Sub-folder = Australia Trip) and would like the sub-folders to appear when I open iPhoto. However, I cannot seem to get the main folder or sub-folder names to appear in iPhoto. The photos just get imported into the library and segregated by year.
I tried reading the forum, and seem to infer that iPhoto cannot handle sub-folder names. However, when I read iPhoto 6.0 Help page, it states:
"You can also drag individual photos or an entire folder from the Finder into iPhoto's photo viewing area. If you drag a folder, a film roll is created with the folder's name. If the folder you import contains subfolders, film rolls are created with each subfolder's name."
I tried the above, but I don't seem to manage to get the film rolls named as described.
Please help!!
MacBook Mac OS X (10.4.8)Could it be confusion with what you are viewing in the iPhoto window?
iPhoto always shows you a "last roll", which is really more like a smart album than a Film Roll. It is simply a quick way to find the photos from your most recent import session. When I drag in 2 folders to import, it only shows the second folder when I select "last roll." Are you seeing photos from one of your folders, or both of them together?
Select "Library" from the top of your Source Pane to see your entire library. It doesn't mattter if you already have photos in your library or if you're beginning fresh. Under the "View" menu, select "Film Rolls" so that it is checked. Also under View, select "Sort Photos" > "by Film Roll". Now try to select the name/icon of 2 folders in Finder, then drag over the iPhoto window onto where the thumbnails display your library. (Or display nothing, if your library is empty.) Release when the curser is a green plus sign. When the import is finished you should see the 2 folder names (now as rolls) each with a set of thumbnails below it. Check the slider near the bottom right of the iPhoto window; moving it all the way to the left will give you the smallest thumbnails and allow you to see more photos at once.
Please try this again and let me know how it goes. If this does not solve it, then I can tell you how to check what's in your library. But the Film Roll view should work.
