Too many ora_*.aud files during rman operations

Hi all ...
I'm running into this issue on 11.1.0.7.0 where a single 'delete nomprompt ... archivelog' is generating 30,000 OS audit files. There is a documented bug 7427320. The workaround is to reset the 'AUDIT FILE MAX SIZE' to 1000. I did that, but it did not resolve the issue. We are generating near 0.5M of these files daily. Auditing is a requirement so disabling it is not an option.
Did you run across such issue, if yes, how did you workaround it (other than having to apply the patch).
Thank you.

My recommendation would be upgrade to 11.2.0.3 but if you can not Oracle indicates there are two possible patches.
11.1.0.7.0 Patch 17 (11.1.0.7.17P) 32-Bit Patch:8783655 64-Bit (x64) Patch:8783657

TOO MANY ROWS error experienced during DBMS_DATA_MINING.APPLY

On a test database that is running 10.1.0.2 when I execute APPLY specifying a data_table_name from another schema [data_schema_name], I get an ORA-1422, too many rows fetched.
However, when I exercise this same option [data table in another schema] on version 10.1.0.3, I get no error and the APPLY works.
Could someone tell me if this is an error that was fixed between the two versions and point me to the documentation that supports this?
Thanks,
Dianna

Dianna,
The behavior you observed could be as a result of some of the security bug fixes that our group have back ported to 10.1.0.3 patchset release. ST releases security bundle patches periodically and some of them were back ported to earlier releases.
There are no specific documentation regarding security bundle patch contents for security reasons.

Encoder keeps crashing with camera MTS files during batch operation

I am trying to convert MTS files to WMV and I am constantly getting crashes.
"Microsoft WIndows: Close programs to prevent information loss... Your computer is low on memory...Adobe Media Encoder.exe"
and
"Adobe Media Encoder Debug Event: Adobe Media Encoder has encountered an error. [..\..\Src\Win\WinFile.cpp-785]"
I do have 8gb of memory with no other programs running and this is 1080/60 converted to 720/30 video and TaskManager shows I have memory to spare.
I have a lot of these and it's neccessary that I do a batch encode. The thing is that I can usualy encode the first item in the list but as the second one begins it crashes.
So it is possible for these files to be encoded successfully (the file plays fine) but the batch process is failing. It is not dependant on the specific file but just any file that isn't the first one in the list it seems.

(these values fluctuate as i was recording them so they are off a little bit in relation to each other)
I have also set my page file to go from 256mb MIN to 1024mb MAX because I have a SSD for Windows and i wanted to save space. I heard it was not neccessary if you have a lot of ram... I will have 16gb of ram again soon (as i just sent the other 8gb in for replacement). So maybe this could be an issue..?

Error executeQueryForObject returned too many results
Typical Error msg:
“SqlMapClient operation; uncategorized SQLException for SQL []; SQL state [null]; error code [0]; Error: executeQueryForObject returned too many results.; nested exception is java.sql.SQLException: Error: executeQueryForObject returned too many results”
The error is caused for using queryForObject (for a single result) instead of queryForList (when expecting multiple results).
Example of correct solution
In DAO:
public List<UpdatedContractRateDO> getUpdatedCtrctRate(Map paramMap) throws DataAccessException {
return (List<UpdatedContractRateDO>) getSqlMapClientTemplate().queryForList("charge.getUpdatedCtrctRate", paramMap);
}

Why so many dependent jar files?

Crystal Report needs too many dependent jar file. What is the alternative way to minimize dependent jar files or club together as one jar?
Thanks,
Venkat

If you're using the Java Reporting Component (JRC), then I recommend upgrading to the newest version - [Crystal Reports For Eclipse 2.0|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/boc/crystalreports-java], where the number of jars are significantly decreased.
The reason why 11.5 had so many Jars was that the JRC and RAS and Enterprise SDKs shared libraries, and so the jar files were broken down along functional lines.
Since CR4E 2.0 is a separate stream, the packaging is simpler.
Jar file count dependencies is always a touchy thing - break it down along functional lines, and there's complaints that there's too many. Consolidate to a few, and there's complaints that the files are too large, and why can't it be broken down into smaller jars?
Sincerely,
Ted Ueda

Too many Archive Log

Hi,
I have a problem on a production server: our support partner told me that we are creating too many Archive Log files. They are not sure at all of what is happening.
Please, do you know if there is any System View which we could obtain more information about Archive Logs usage?
Thanks in advance.
Best Regards,
Joan Padilla

Hi Joan,
The sensible number of archive logs is determined by your backup and recovery strategy. You can delete them, once you have back-upped the database and the archivelogs. Further info in the Backup and Recovery Concepts manual.
You can find information on them in v$archived_log.
If you decide to delete them without having read the aforementioned manual, I will pray for you you don't suffer a hard disk crash.
You may want to review the relationship with your support partner too.
Their advice is not exactly professional.

Texts keep getting returned--too many digits error, pls help

Hi, everyone!
I upgraded to 4.3.3, yesterday so far no problems, except this morning my phone started to send me an error message every time I send a text and says "this message could not be sent, you've entered too many digits." How do I fix this? And the number it shows is an 11-digit number because it adds the 1...
Does anyone know what I can do?

Will Analyze create too many redo logs ??

DB : 10gR2
Hello Folks,
Is analyze process creates too many redo log files ?? Is their any other valid option other than no log ?

I guess that's also going to create too many log switches as it's part of DDLHUH?
REDO log switches result from DML.
If you are obsessed with LOG switches, then you need to use LOGMINER to observe the the relative per centage of changed data is from DBMS_STATS
when compared to normal DML activity.
I seriously doubt that DBMS_STATS has any significant impact to redo log switches.

Word cannot complete the operation because too many files are open

Hello,
I'm working on a 60 pg. document, and when I hit 'save', I get this annoying msg.:
"word cannot complete the operation because too many files are open." I have no other files open, and I am unable to continue to work, because I cannot save - can anyone help? Thanks!

Hello Kristina,
Have you been able to save the file at all?
More than anything, it seems to be a bug when you're trying to save to a server. There's more on the problem here. So what you can also try is simply saving the file to your desktop, or somewhere on your Mac's hard drive. That way you're saving the file locally instead of to a server. If that works, you've at least saved the file and can continue on. Otherwise, read on.
If you can't do it from Word, then at least save your changes from another application. Open TextEdit. You should get a blank file on the desktop. Make sure it's set as a rich text file. You'll know just be looking at it. If you see a ruler and other buttons at the top of the TextEdit document window, it's rich text. If not, make it rich text by pressing CommandShiftT.
Copy and paste your entire Word text into the TextEdit window. Save the TextEdit document to the desktop. Now that you've at least gotten your work saved, you can try some other things.
If you're not trying to work on the file from, or save it to a remote server, then don't worry about the first workaround. It doesn't apply. Number two was poorly worded by John. He seems to assume everyone knows what RH is. I had to look it up. It means Remote Home folder. So open the Word preferences and click on FIle Locations. Highlight the first choice, Documents, and click on the Modify button. Choose any location you want on your Mac's hard drive. Click "Choose" and close the preferences. Can you now save the document to the folder you defined as the default save location?
Spotlight is that little magnifying glass in the upper right corner of your screen by the time/date. There are a few methods to disable Spotlight. What John is saying that if the Mac is spending a lot of time indexing your drives at the same time you're trying to save your Word document, the intense processing time to index may be keeping Word from saving.
If you've managed to at least save your file as a rich text TextEdit document, then shut all of your applications down and restart your Mac. Launch Word and open the TextEdit file. You may lose some formating if you've done tables or other things TextEdit can't save in Word's original form.

Operation Could Not Be Completed: Too Many Open...

I've had this error showing up a lot in the Safari 3.2 and 4.0 beta activity window when loading multiple tabs of pages with many images (usually gallery type pages or blogs with lots of thumbnails). The result is that some images or other elements like style sheets don't load, leading to the blue question mark, or messed up formatting. Unfortunately, the activity window can't be stretched wide enough to see the whole error, but in fact it's "Operation Could Not Be Completed: Too Many Open Files". The error "socket(PF_ROUTE) failed: Too many open files" shows up in the Console as well, at least with Safari 4. I had also experienced similar problems with "Operation Timed Out" errors as well.
I've been pulling my hair out on this one, because it's rather inconsistent, not to mention annoying. You can usually get an individual page to load completely by refreshing it, but that kind of defeats the purpose of loading multiple tabs all at once. It's also less of a problem if more of those pages are already cached, but you never know for sure. Running your connection through a proxy also helps a bit, but not always.
I found a fix, but it's actually not Safari's "fault" per se. The issue lies in the allowable number of open files per user process, which is set by the system's launchd process at boot time. Note that Safari is not entirely innocent, as FireFox doesn't have this problem. It Seems that Safari just tries to load everything all at once, whereas FireFox does a better job of managing its load requests. Anyway if you run the following command in Terminal:
sudo launchctl limit
the following list should show up (with perhaps slightly different values)
cpu unlimited unlimited
filesize unlimited unlimited
data 6291456 unlimited
stack 8388608 67104768
core 0 unlimited
rss unlimited unlimited
memlock unlimited unlimited
maxproc 200 532
maxfiles 256 unlimited
The second column is a "soft limit" and the third column is a "hard limit", though to be honest I'm not exactly sure what the difference entails. The image loading problem is caused by hitting the maxfiles limit of just 256 files. The solution is to change maxfiles to 4096/unlimited, and also change maxproc to 1000/2000 since it's pretty low as well. That sounds like a pretty big change, but OS X server is supposed to change them to numbers like this when services like Apache are enabled, and Apple even mentions how to change maxproc at http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1659
To make these changes, run the following two commands in Terminal and restart the computer:
echo "limit maxproc 1000 2000" | sudo tee -a /etc/launchd.conf
echo "limit maxfiles 4096 unlimited" | sudo tee -a /etc/launchd.conf
The commands add the two lines in quotes to the launchd.conf file in /etc/ (if no file exists yet, it creates it). That should clear up the loading issues. I haven't noticed any other problems with these increased numbers, but I'll report back if anything seems to go amiss. Hopefully this will be helpful to someone.

I faced the same problem with an image gallery using css for image resizing. Thanks for the explanation.

Keep getting message pop up "Error reading/writing file "com.apple.logic.pro.cs": Logical end-of-file reached during read operation," and "The Preferences are not loaded completely. Save them to "com.apple.logic.pro.cs" anyway?" Using Logic pro 8. ???

Logic froze while I was working on something so I forced quit. Now every time I open LOGIC a message pops up that says:
"Error reading/writing file
“com.apple.logic.pro.cs”:
Logical end-of-file reached during read operation."
The only button option is cancel so I press it and another message appears that says:
"The Preferences are not loaded completely.
Do not save them, as you would overwrite the Preferences file with incomplete data."
Then when i close logic a box appears saying:
"The Preferences are not loaded completely.
Save them to "com.apple.logic.pro.cs" anyway?"
There are 3 button options to press; ok, cancel or dont save.
I press "don’t save" cuz I don't want to ruin anything.
I found a discussion located here: https://discussions.apple.com/message/9564253#9564253 that says if I delete the file "com.apple.logic.pro.cs" it will resolve the problem. If I do this will I loose or mess anything up at all, automation, saved channel strips customizations, saved effects, synth, or ultrabeat customizations etc? Or especially will I loose any work I've done? I have hundreds pieces of music files I've created. I'm scared to mess anything up with all the hours and months of work I've done. Is there anyway to fix this without loosing anything? I'm using Logic Pro 8.
Thank you

You can safely delete this file - its the preference file for control surface settings - you haven't said whether you're actually using a control surface or not, if so, you will have to set it up again. A new file will be created when you fire Logic up again, but of course it will contain default settings. If you have a complicated control surface setup, remember to keep a backup copy somewhere in case any future problems arise.
Other than that, you really have nothing to be scared about - hopefully your problem is as simple as that and there isn't an underlying problem (a corrupt hard drive, for example). You seem concerned about losing work, so I guess you want to think about backing that up on a regular basis too. If you're saving your projects to your system drive, do get an external one for this. And also check that you have plent of free space on your system drive - you need to keep about a quarter or third of it free for your OS and programs to run properly (some temporarily stored files can be quite large).

Can anybody has run into such problem and guide me to a solution, please?
Thanks

Hi,
yes, this DB was functioning o.k. this configuration script was part of RMAN daily backup.
Last night the backup failed. So, when I opened "Failed job" in the EM, I saw this type of messages.
That was the starting point. Gradually, I tried to narrow down on to the actual problem and found the findings as I have posted.
One way of sovling problem, I thought that, all these processes I would kill and then try to open the database, it might startup. However, that wouldnot lead me in ensuring this won't occur again.
That's why I am trying to understand why it should open, so many processes (why spawn so many .flb files?) Any thoughts you have around this?
I will try to restart the OS as the last resort.
Thanks for your help and suggestions.
Regards,

WLS 10.3.5 on RHEL 5.4, SocketException: Too many open files

Hi

My order handling application, when receiving client orders, needs to make outbound SOAP calls to fulfill the order. During a performance test, we got following errors:
####<Feb 10, 2012 2:28:41 PM ICT> <Critical> <Server> <KKMOMAPP2> <KKMOMPE2> <DynamicListenThread[Default]> <<WLS Kernel>> <> <> <1328858921806> <BEA-002616> <Failed to listen on channel "Default" on 172.24.106.81:4095, failure count: 1, failing for 0 seconds, java.net.SocketException: Too many open files>
I monitored the java process of this application, when the "Too many open files" error happened, it had 1388 open file descriptors, among which 655 were sockets.
I also monitored the total open file descriptors of the weblogic user account, the count was around 6300 during this error.
These numbers are far smaller than the file limits configured on OS:
- Under weblogic account, ulimit -n shows 65536
- /proc/sys/fs/file-max shows 772591
- Following lines are already in /etc/security/limits.conf
weblogic soft nofile 65536
weblogic hard nofile 65536
weblogic soft nproc 16384
weblogic hard nproc 16384
I did another test using a simple java program to open large number of sockets under weblogic account. It has no problem to open 15,000 sockets. It seems the file descriptor limit is indeed quite high, but for some reasons, the Weblogic process fails even when it has merely 1388 open files. Are there other Linux or Weblogic parameters I should tune? Or anything else I missed?
Thank you very much
