Text valriable in Query Description is not working in Bex Broadcaster

Hello Experts,
I am using Bex broadcaster setting to displaying Query Description through text variable availabe as <OBJECT_DESCRIPTION> in subject of boradcasted mail.
In Query Description I have used text variable at the end to display previous month/year i.e "Report &ZPREV&" .
Text variable with description is working fine in RSRT/ Analyzer, I am able to see description as "Report 201012" but the same description displays "Report &ZPREV&" in the subject line of broadcasted mail i.e. text variable is not getting assigned with desired value and technical name appears.
Thanks,

this problem may arise due to non-assignment of text variable to the any of the characteristics you using the year so, REFER THE TEXT VARIABLE TO THE FISCAL YEAR . WHICH IS IN TIME CHARACTERISTICS.
HAVE YOU CREATED ANY OFFSET VARIABLE, CREATE A VARIABLE FOR THE FISCAL YEAR AND CREATE OFFSET TO THE VARIABLE AS -1 THEN YEAR WILL YEAR-1 , THE TEXT VARIABLE YOU CREATED WILL REFER TO THE FISCAL YEAR SO THE PREVIOUS YEAR VALUE OF THE TEXT VARIABLE WILL THE YEAR = YEAR - 1.

Command.text with ODBC escape sequence is not working in VC++, Bug in OLEDB ?

Command.text with ODBC escape sequence is not working in VC++. The Code, which written in VB is working perfectly. Is there any different syntax in VC++ or bug in
OLE DB provider ?. I am using OraOLEDB 8.1.7 version.
Thanks
Mani
VB Code
' Enable PLSQLRSet property
Cmd.Properties("PLSQLRSet") = True
' Stored Procedures returning resultsets must be called using the
' ODBC escape sequence for calling stored procedures.
Cmd.CommandText = "{CALL corpuser.GetCorpUserRec(?, ?)}"
Set Rst1 = Cmd.Execute
VC++ Code (while execute it is giving error )
pCommand->CommandText = "{CALL corpuser.GetCorpUserRec(?, ?)}";
pRs1 = pCommand->Execute(NULL,NULL,adCmdStoredProc);

Hi
The odbc escape sequence for calling stored procedures works fine with VC++ also.

Text paramter with data type sting, not working

Hi Guys,
Im using BIP Standalone 10.1.3.4, and have come across a unusual problem.. probably a bug.
Ive created a report with a parameter. The parameter type is text, and datatype String. (this problem only seems to occur if the string value is a combination of numerals and alphabels)
the problem i face is that when i run the report, it runs fine with the dafault paramter value the first time. Subsequently if i change the template or the output type, or the parameter value and again click on view, it says "Invalid parameters specified".
this report is mainly called through a hyperlink and is a lower level of a dill down report. when called by the hyperlink, which contains the parameters in the URL it works fine, but only the first time. A subsequent click on "view" or "Export" returns the error- Invalid parameters specified!!
Ive changed the parameter type from text to menu.. and created a LOV query... it works fine with this. However, when i call the report via the hyperlink, although the report runs fine the first time using the parameter from the hyperlink URL, the menu parameter at the top shows the default value returned from the LOV, not the parameter called via the URL, so a subsequent cliick on view or export, will consider the default parameter, rather than the one was was specified in the hyperlink URL.
Frustrating ... it seems to be ill have to work around this by creating separate hyperlinks for different output types from the main report ;-(
Was wondering if anyone else has faced this issue, and hopefully has some solution
Thanks in Advance
-Domnic

Solved.. apparently the database stored the data with a couple of leading spaces, which were getting eaten up when stored as a parameter.. workaround is to set parameter type to text, and as the user to put in a couple of spaces, if they want to rerun the report, as opposed to running it from its hyperlinked url...

Query level filter not working in Webi report

Hi All,
I am using BOXI R3.1 (SP3), m facing one problem when refreshing Webi report on daily basis. I am using three query level filter as a prompt, but i checked one filter is not working then i need to reapply this filter and rest 2 filter is working fine.
Can anyone suggest me why problem is coming?
Regards,

Hi,
Prompts are interactive, and come from the query panel. Filters are not interactive, and are set on the report or block. There are also input controls, which are interactive filters
1. Select the universe in the list of universes to open the Query Panel.
2. Drag the Year object to the Result Objects pane.
3. Drag the Number of Guests object to the Query Filters pane and create a report filter that restricts Number of Guests to greater than n.
4. Click Combined Query.
The Combined Query pane appears in the bottom left of the Query panel with the two queries joined by UNION.
5. Click on the second query and remove the Year and Number of Guests objects.
6. Drag the Reservation Year object to the Result Objects pane.
7. Drag the Future Guests object to the Query Filters pane and create a report filter that restricts the future guests to greater than n.
8. Click Run Query.
Best Regards

Query remote table not working in PL/SQL

I have a problem that is killing me to figure out. Basically we trying to query a remote table through PL/SQL and it comes back with invalid column name for the table. But the table exists in the remote database and has the column. The query works fine from the same database outside of PL/SQL, just not in PL/SQL. I'll setup a test case below.
We have local database called DB1 and remote database called DB2. The table we are querying is called EMP.
First we create database link:
create database link DB2.WORLD connect to...
Test the link:
select ENAME from [email protected];
ENAME
SHAWN
Works fine.
Now we put this query inside a PL/SQL block:
declare
l_ename varchar2(20);
begin
select ename into l_ename from [email protected];
end;
This fails with the following error:
select ename
ERROR at line 274:
ORA-06550: line 274, column 7:
PL/SQL: ORA-00904: invalid column name
ORA-06550: line 271, column 3:
PL/SQL: SQL Statement ignored
ORA-06550: line 279, column 9:
PL/SQL: ORA-00904: invalid column name
ORA-06550: line 277, column 3:
PL/SQL: SQL Statement ignored
Now, I've tried changing how we select from the remote table, I've put the select statement in a cursor, tried creating a synonym which points to the remote table and selecting using the synonym in PL/SQL, it always returns the same error. But always works outside of PL/SQL.
Now the user we are connecting to the remote database as, has select on the EMP table, through a role, along with 30 other tables, all the other tables are able to be selected through the database link, in PL/SQL, it's just this one table.
Additionally I can go to another database, and create the same database link, and the query in PL/SQL works fine to the remote table. It's just this one table, from this one database, that doesn't work just in PL/SQL. Any ideas would be appreciated, I've exhausted everything.
Also, creating a copy of the table using "create table as select * from..." we can select from the copy of the table using PL/SQL through the database link. The problem is this is a central warehouse table, and is used my multiple applications and updated constantly, so dropping a recreating this table is a last resort.
Yes, this process did work, for over a year, then suddenly it stopped. Of course, no one made any changes to either database, that's always the case. I know the code didn't change though, it was still timestamped from a year ago.
Thanks in advance.

Could this be a variant on an old favourite, viz privileges being granted through roles. We cannot use objects in PL/SQL if our privileges are assigned through a role.
Maybe what has changed is that instead of being granted privileges on EMP@DB2 directly the privileges have been re-organised so that your user has them granted through a role.
Cheers, APC

Portal Rich Text Editor in Firefox 3.5 Not Working

I'm using Oracle Portal Version: 10.1.4.0.0 (Build: 594)
The text item Rich Text editor works fine in IE 6 and has reduced functionality in Firefox 3.0 (scroll doesn't work). I've just updated to Firefox 3.5 and the text editor doesn't work at all now.
The user is presented with a grey box where all the text controls are squashed into the top left hand corner.
The following errors appear in the Error Console :
Error: element.children.tags is not a function
Source File: http://xyz.example.net:7778/images/webword/WebWordMenuToolbar.js
Line: 1
Error: attachEvt is not defined
Source File: http://xyz.example.net:7778/images/webword/buildUI1.js
Line: 76
(I've replaced our server url with http://xyz.example.net)
Has anyone else noticed this? Has anyone got any suggestions on what I can do to investigate/fix it?
Thanks,
Matt
Update :
There is a patch available to potentially fix the Rich Text Editor issues in Firefox
"The Rich Text Editor Does Not Work Correctly In FireFox" - Metalink Doc ID: 456512.1
or you can replace the RTE completely with a 3rd party editor :
"How to integrate third party RTE (FCKeditor) with Oracle Portal" - Metalink Doc ID: 352796.1
Using FCKEditor may well solve the issues but I only use Firefox for development. Our users use IE6 so I don't want to replace the interface unless I have to.
Edited by: Matt Hawkins on Jul 15, 2009 1:58 PM

This is a known issue in both Portal 10.1.4.x and Portal 11.x :
Bug 8708210 (11) NOT ABLE TO RENDER RICH TEXT EDITOR WITH FIREFOX 3.5 BROWSER
This bug is not published on Metalink.
There is no solution yet. Consider to use IE Tab (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/1419) for editing file items until this bug is solved.

Zero Suppression Not working in Bex Query with Formula Variable

Hi Friends,
I have a peculiar issue here. We upgraded from 3.5 to 7.0 recently. Some of our Bex queries have been behaving abnormally after this. In these queeries,
we have some key figures which use formula variables (ready for input and mandatory) in 3.5. User can enter either 1 or 0. The actual key figure is multiplied to the formula variable so, the entire column gets the actual key figure value if the user enters a value '1' and the gets the value 0 if the user enters '0' in the formula variables. Zero suppression is activated on the rows and columns and this report. This technique was used successfully to show/hide a column.
After upgrade, the same query works but, the zero suppression is not working. When the user enters a value of '0' in these formula variables, all the entries in the column for the key figure are displayed as 0 but the column is still displayed. It is like the zero suppression setting is not active at all.
I created one of those queries in Bex 7.0 to see if that works but, the issue still exits. Have anyone come across this kind of a scenario? Please get back to me if anyone has any idea on this situation.
Thanks and Regards
Subray Hegde

Which SP level are you at in BI 7? There is an OSS Note that would need to be applied if you're on lower than SP10. That note is:

Populating Text Field using Dynamic Actions is not working

I've a Select List (P14_ACCOUNT) and Text Field (P14_BILLING_ADDRESS_1) on a form. On selecting a value on the Select List, I've to populate the Text Fields by fetching its values from the database by using the Select List value as the primary key. To do this, I created a Dynamic Actions (Advanced) on the Select List, with event onchange and Set Value as SQL. However this is not working.
Below are the sqls of Select List and Dynamic Action respectively:
select ACCOUNT_NO || ' - ' || COMPANY_NAME display_value, ACCOUNT_ID return_value
from ACCOUNT
order by 1
select a.address1 from account a where a.account_id = :P14_ACCOUNTNow when I substitute the Dynamic Action sql with any of the below sqls, the value shows up:
select address1 from account where account_id = 41
select address1 from account where rownum=1
select user from dualI thought of seeing the value of :P14_ACCOUNT in session or debug, but session does not show any value and on clicking debug it throws a popup message "Debugging is not enabled for this application."
I've been trying since few hours but with no luck. How can I debug further?
Thanks for the help.

Hozy,
Take alook at your application on apex.oracle.com
The session state for items, when SQL is used, is set using the Page Items to Submit parameter as has been set in your application.

XMII Query Selected tags not working

I am using a query template for tag list against a UDS PI server and the "Selected Tags" dos not seem to wok. It retuns all tags or masked ones even when the check box "Use Group.Mask .....' is unchecked.
The UDS does not have groups since the alias tool doesn't seem to allow wildcarding accomadating future tags.
Product Version: 11.5.3 b66
Thanks, Ed (for Shari)

Hi,
As Jeremy said, 'Use Group or Mask for Tag selection' is used for Current, History, HistoryEvent, and Statistics query modes. For namespace query modes such as TagList/GroupList it will not work. Please find the below link for you help:

Condition - Query Designer not working in BEx

Hi all,
I have used Condition in my Query in Query designer. it is to calulate the top 10 customer. when i execute the report in RSRT , condition is not working properly.
But, at the same time , i am executing my same query on portal and condition is working on portal.
We are on EHP 1 . please suggest.
Regards,
Macwan James.

Hi James,
There are certain functions about condition which are only available for 7.x runtime (Java Web, Portal) and are not available for 3.x runtime (transaction RSRT, BEx Analyzer, ABAP Web).
For example this one:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/43/2695d2fd2f0d23e10000000a1553f7/frameset.htm
● Most Detailed Characteristic Along the Rows or Columns
This option is optimized for threshold value conditions. The condition is applied to the most detailed characteristic of the rows or columns.
Note that this function is not supported when executing the query in the BEx Analyzer.
If you have set to "Most Detailed Characteristic Along the Rows or Columns" in Query Designer, portal would execute properly according to this setting while RSRT would use one of the other two settings (seems to be "Single Characteristics and Characteristic Combinations" as I remember) which lead to unexpected result. This is my assumption how it is in your case.

Patricia

Hi Sastry,
Connection to the database is trough Pivotal, I have tried ODBC connection as well but same error
The instruction at "0x005d53e0" refereced memory at "0x00000014'. The memory could not be "read".
With ODBC I have always compilation error saying

but even the simple select statment is showing the error.
Do you think the error is with Drivers???

Isqlplus with full connection description does not work in netscape/firefox

http://machine/isqlplus?userid="user/pass@(DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)(HOST=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx)(PORT=1521))(CONNECT_DATA=(SID=xxx)(SRVR=DEDICATED)))"
This works in IE, but fails in netscape and firefox with: SP2-0874: URL argument is missing a keyword
It looks like a URL encoding issue. Has anyone seen this and if so have you found a solution?

Thanks for the try, but that didn't help. Actually, without the full connection description it works in both browsers, i.e.
http://machine/isqlplus?userid=user/pass@servicename
does work in both. isqlplus under firefox appears to not like the encoding as:
http://machine/isqlplus?userid="user/pass@servicename"
this does not work under firefox. But with a full connect string it appears I need the quotes as without nether works.

HT201365 my text to send messages is now not working correctly after upgrading

Since upgrading last week my text is not working correctly it is very slow does not show the letter being used and takes seconds to be put in

Looking into the Diagnostics and Usage Reports in 'Settings' -> 'General' -> 'About' I see nine different "ExcResource_MobileMail_DATE" reports. Looking at the report I see a SysInfoCrashReport that indicates that the CPU was pegged at over 50% (mostly over 75%) for over 180 seconds using the MobileMail app.
I also see a "MobileMail_DATE" report that indicates that there was an 'Exception raised during monitored invocation of _loadMoreMessagesWithMaxVisibleIndexPath:maximumIndexPathsBySource:, exception: ** -[__NSArrayM objectAtIndex:]: index 4294967295 beyond bounds for empty array"
And finally I see three "stacks+MobileMail-DATE" reports with "Power assertion timeout for 'com.apple.message.fetchMobileSynchronously...' Simply resetting it now." and "Power assertion timeout for 'com.apple.mobilemail.messagebodyloader' Simply resetting it now" reports.
I updated to iOS 7.0.4 and decided to try and delete the account in my Mail settings and recreate it and set it to manual instead of the non-working fetch. Now, when I try to check my mail it still takes up to five minutes to respond, pulling the screen to refresh brings up the spinner for about one second and then disappears and no indications of activity occur until about three minutes later when I see the spinner in the status bar near the clock and then see a notification that it's downloading X of Y messages. At that point, message headers come in very quick and then about a minute later message previews come in. At random times, opening the mail app I get a "Password incorrect" error, even though the password works on other attempts.
