Sys.utl_http stopped working in batch; still works in APEX?

We have a package in Oracle 11gR1 that runs a nightly "job" to produce reports; it is designed to call the Oracle Reports server via URL and create a report as pdf, then save it to a directory in the Oracle LINUX filesystem. The call in the output procedure is simple:
           MY_URL :=
'http://refugee1.dcf.state.fl.us:7777/reports/rwservlet?server=repRefugeeTest&report=DELIVERABLE_RPT.rdf&destype=FILE&desformat=pdf&userid=ruser/collins@RPD&desname=/app/oracle/external_files/official_reports/MAY_2014_DELIV.pdf&contract=XK030&report_beg_d=05/01/2014&report_end_d=05/31/2014&subc=&sticker=OFFICIAL REPORT';
            UTL_HTTP.SET_TRANSFER_TIMEOUT (180);
            MY_HTTP_RTN := UTL_HTTP.REQUEST (MY_URL);
            UTL_HTTP.SET_TRANSFER_TIMEOUT (60);
This Oracle package has worked for years with user RPD, until we moved up some rdf and report package changes yesterday.  These same four commands still work fine using APEX (with user APEX_PUBLIC_USER) in a windows-based browser (Firefox and IE), but this command UTL_HTTP.REQUEST does not produce output anymore from the Oracle package (with user RPD) and throws no exception.  There is no job in the Oracle Reports queue (exception or not) to show that the request was passed.  And, if I paste the string of MY_URL into a windows-browser, then it runs and Oracle Reports shows the job.  I'm stumped!  Please help shed light on the mystery; how can I trace or trap what's (not) happening?

Does
aplay -Dplug:iec958 /usr/share/sounds/alsa/Front_Center.wav
work?
Did you try this while running a DE? Did you try disabling/enabling powersaving?

  • Since I installed the latest Firefox my Roboform dose not work. It still works with IE.

    Since I installed the latest Firefox my Roboform dose not work. It still works with IE.

    I have Roboform Pro, I don't want to down grade to Lite. Roboform is working, but I can't get the full Toolbar to display all that shows up is the Show Toobar icon and nothing happens when I click it. So I can't fill in log on forms. Isn't there a way to get the pro version to work?
    Thank you for your input and trying to answer my questions.

    why can't I print from my 4s to my HP envy. I used to work and it still works from my air book?

    Morning thomas b olsen
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    For more information on this, take a look at this article:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4356
    How to print in iOS
    You can print from the Apple applications, such as Mail, Safari, Photos, Camera, Maps, Pages, Numbers, Keynote, Filemaker Go, and so on. Apps available from the App Store may also offer this feature.
    To print, follow these steps:
    Tap the action icon .
    Tap the Print button.
    Select the appropriate settings, and then tap Print.
    Important: If you are printing for the first time, or if the previously selected printer is not available, you will need to select a printer before step 3.
    Note: AirPrint displays only the essential printer options that apply to the document or image being printed. Details such as media type, page size, and orientation are automatically determined at print time.
    Hope this helps,

  • My FaceTime on my iMac has stopped working but it still works on my ipad whats wrong

    My facetime on my imac has suddenly stopped working and will not accept my password, it still works on my ipad what is wrong

    Either the physical drive or the enclosure electronics has failed. The light you are seeing is powered by the USB connection, the power, electricity, all USB ports put out. That doesn't mean the actual physical hard drive or the USB to SATA bus electronics are working properly. If it doesn't show in Disk Utility then it is DEAD.
    Most of the time it is the enclosures electronics that fail. Removing the physical drive from the enclosure and put it in another enclosure or using a SATA to USB adapter, one that has it's own AC power supply, might allow you to get the files off the drive.

  • XP stopped recognizing iPod, iPod still works with other XP computer

    I had my iPod and iTunes working hapilly on my main XP Home computer until recently. XP now beeps several times (connect/disconnect) when I plug the iPod, and the drive letter briefly shows up in My Computer with a red flag, and it comes and goes for a few minutes before finally giving up.
    I uninstalled iTunes and reinstalled twice with no change.
    The iPod is still recognized on 2 other XP computers that don't have iTunes (I use it as a USB drive on those machines).
    I have reset the iPod a few times and no change. The iPod works well by itself, and other USB devices on the main XP machine still work fine.
    I did a driver rollback to March (oldest date I could find), and I know the iPod was working fine then, and it made no difference.
    I am open to any suggestion. I have been considering reinstalling XP on this machine to clean it up anyway, but the Make Recovery CD program on this machine does not work, so short of buying a new XP license, or buying a new computer, I am stuck with this one.
    Thanks in advance

    I thought about that, but the iPod does not show in Disk Manager. It shows sometimes very briefly in My Computer, but disconnects immediately when it does.
    The drive letter assignments on this computer are a little funky, but the iPod used to be N: and currently there is nothing assigned to N:
    At this moment, it is plugged in and the computer keeps beeping with the typical USB-in and USB-out sounds every few seconds.

    Actually...I post this in the wrong place..sorry
    iMac, eMac. They sound similar in every language but English! I'll get the Hosts to move this to the eMac section so you don't have to repost.
    The good news is we have two eMacs in the family: one the first generation; one the last.
    When you get the messages, what ports are you using? It is fairly normal for a flash drive to fail when plugged into a port on the keyboard (low-powered port). If you used a port on the right side of the eMac case, then it should work.
    Have you experienced any other odd symptoms with the computer? Unexpected freezes, video defects, or no video, etc? I ask because a fair number of 1.25Ghz eMacs had near-fatal logic board problems. As odd as the symptoms of the logic board problems seemed to be, it would no longer surprise me if it affected USB. If you are seeing other problems than this, I can post a list of serial numbers that Apple said contains the affected computers.

  • Why doesn't the "zoom in/out" via pinching the trackpad on my mac not work anymore with firefox? It worked before and still works with Safari.

    why doesn't the "zoom in/out" feature by pinching the trackpad on my mac work anymore with firefox? It worked about a month ago, and still works on Safari.

    Some gestures have been removed in Firefox 4 and later.
    You can restore the zoom feature by changing the values of the related prefs on the <b>about:config</b> page.
    browser.gesture.pinch.in -> <b>cmd_fullZoomReduce</b>
    browser.gesture.pinch.in.shift -> <b>cmd_fullZoomReset</b>
    browser.gesture.pinch.out -> <b>cmd_fullZoomEnlarge</b>
    browser.gesture.pinch.out.shift -> <b>cmd_fullZoomReset</b>
    browser.gesture.pinch.latched -> <b>false</b>
    To open the <i>about:config</i> page, type <b>about:config</b> in the location (address) bar and press the "<i>Enter</i>" key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website.<br />
    If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page.<br />
    *Use the Filter bar at to top of the about:config page to locate a preference more easily.
    *Preferences that have been modified show as bold(user set).
    *Preferences can be reset to the default or changed via the right-click context menu.

  • Adobe Flash Player 11.4 says it stopped working, but I still works

    Almost every time I open Firefox, I get a message saying that Adobe Flash Player 11.4 has stopped working. However, I don't seem to have any problem playing anything that uses Adobe. Every time I close the message window, it immediately pops back up. At this point I just don't close it and try to ignore it, but I'd like to find out how to stop it from happening.

    Could I suggest disabling the protected mode feature in Flash 11.3-11.4, since that feature is currently being debugged. See this support article from Adobe under the heading "Last Resort": [http://forums.adobe.com/message/4468493#TemporaryWorkaround Adobe Forums: How do I troubleshoot Flash Player's protected mode for Firefox?]

  • BB 8703 OS4.5 internet and email stop, phone and sms still work

    Just about every day, at seemingly random times, my internet and email quit working, with no warning.  Everything looks fine, and the phone and sms still send and receive, but no internet or email.  I first noticed no email past a point, say 10am that day, and then I tried intenet and it would not connect.  But phone calls in and out and sms worked.  So, I turned it off and back on, and I suddenly got all the queued up email, and the internet worked. 
    Any ideas?  Seems the network loses my internet and email, but still maintains my phone connection.

    OK give those a try...it may also be that you have many apps running that are causing conflicts. Check this:
    There are three types of potential memory on a BB: 1) Application Memory, 2) Device Memory, and 3) Media/SD Card Memory
    Application Memory -- This is the most crucial; it is the protected (not user accessible), dedicated, and fixed (in size) space that is available as the destination for the installation of applications (plus some application storage, overhead and such). You cannot touch AppMemory. You cannot improve the maximum AppMemory that your BB has. It is what it is. Applications can only install here...there is no option.
    Device Memory -- This is space on your BB that you can touch to store files, pictures, media, etc. Typically, it is not terribly large, but it is available to you.
    SD/Media Card Memory -- This is what it says...your SD card, for you to store files, media, pictures, etc. It can be as large as your BB OS can support...see this KB:
    http://www.blackberry.com/btsc/KB05461
    On some devices/OS levels, Device Memory and Application Memory are combined into "File Free"...these are, IMO, a little harder to administer as you really can't see well just how much AppMemory you have. Nevertheless, here are some guidelines to use:
    http://www.blackberry.com/btsc/KB15345
    http://www.blackberry.com/btsc/KB14320
    http://www.blackberry.com/btsc/KB14213
    Lastly, it is always important to properly close applications when you are done with them. Using the Back or the Red key will not do this -- those leave it to the app to decide what to do...and some will leave themselves resident in memory, consuming resources on your BB, slowing the overall performance. Rather, to close an app, press the BBKey and select "Close" or "Exit"...that will force the application to be closed, freeing up for your new use the resources it was consuming. Some apps will always remain running (typically -- BBMessenger, Browser, Homescreen, Phone, and Messages)...but, you should still close them properly - especially the Browser...if it is left on an active web page, it will not only consume extra resources but battery power as well.
    Good luck!

  • Model BEFW11S4 wireless router just stopped working with Mac; still works with Windows

    I have the above model Linksys wireless router, hard connected to a Windows XP Pro desktop unit. I also have a Windows XP Home laptop. My wife has a Mac PowerBook laptop. On Thursday last week her laptop started having trouble connecting to Internet. Problem is intermittent--sometimes can get on and sometimes now. When on it might connect to a web site normally or sometimes takes a long (as in loooooong) time connecting. My XP Home laptop continues to connect quickly and will move from one URL to another easily; no problems. She took the PowerBook to Panera and got on the Internet with no trouble. She was on for at least a half hour and suffered no outage or slow-downs. Came back home; got the same problems as before. Only thing that has changed is a big snow on Thursday, same day as the trouble started. The relationship is probably non-existent, but it's the only thing different from Wednesday (when working well) to Thursday (when started having trouble). Any thoughts? I naturally welcome any responses. Thanks, Michael Plog

    Hello people. I'm having the same weird trouble: I'm having this BEFW11S4 to which I connect via another wireless AP and a switch a Windows XP PC and a MacBook Pro computer (both with Ethernet cable connected to the switch, to which the AP is connected). Both the above computers work seamlessly, but sometimes the other iMac I have in WLAN doesn't surf anymore. It can ping both MacBook Pro and Windows XP PC, but doesn't anymore ping the BEFW11S4. Wireless connection is crypted with WEP-64 bit key. When this is happening, also from the Windows XP PC I cannot get on the web interface of the BEFW11S4. It seems to be "locked" somehow. After unplugging the power and re-plugging it in, everything works again also on the iMac. Anybody managed to solve this issue? What version of Firware do you guys have? I have 1.50.13... regards.

    You're going to need to do an RMA with MSI. Most likely there isn't anything we can do here to help you.

  • C7280 AIO won't print over network. Was working on WiFi, still works on USB.

    My AIO quit printing over the network after 2 years of service. The USB port still prints OK. My Linksys utility still sees the printer, and I even get ink levels back, but print jobs are hung up in the queue with status 'Error - Printing'.  I tried a wired ethernet connection and got the same result, so it's not a wireless problem, but rather networking in general. The network report indicates everything is normal, but I still can't print. I re-installed the driver but that didn't work.
    I am running Vista, and the printer had been working fine till two weeks ago. My wife would use the USB port to print, and she said she got updates for the printer. HP doesn't distribute f/w updates for the printers themselves, does it? It's as if the networking f/w in the printer got hammered.

    No joy.
    I'm connected with Ethernet port. I have disabled the firewall. The IP address matches on the printer's network status report, and on the Printer dialog box on the computer. I can see that the printer is connected when I run a Linksys utility. I can get the ink levels and I can print an alignment page.
    But I can't print a document. About 60 seconds after I initiate the print job, the status changes from 'Printing' to Error - Printing'.
    I clearly have connectivity, but something is preventing me from sending a document. Any ideas to try, or tests to run?
    I think the same behavior occurs in wireless mode, but I think I have a better chance with a wired connection right now. As I said, USB works OK.
    Thanks,
    SWW

  • Since updating to Firefox 8.0, gchat has not been working, however it still works in IE. How can I fix this?

    Firefox automatically updated itself. However, since the updating, whenever I open gmail the chat feature does not allow me to send messages. I am able to receive but the typing portion does not work to allow me to send messages. It is not a problem with gmail as the chat feature works fine in Internet Explorer. How can I fix this?

    You can use these steps to check if images are blocked:
    * Open the web page that has the images missing in a browser tab.
    * Click the website favicon ([[Site Identity Button]]) on the left end of the location bar.
    * Click the "More Information" button to open the "Page Info" window with the Security tab selected (also accessible via "Tools > Page Info").
    * Go to the <i>Media</i> tab of the "Tools > Page Info" window.
    * Select the first image link and scroll down through the list with the Down arrow key.
    * If an image in the list is grayed and there is a check-mark in the box "<i>Block Images from...</i>" then remove that mark to unblock the images from that domain.
