Tracking external programs used to access database

I would like to track/audit the external programs our users are using to access our Oracle databases over a period of time. Hoping to track users hitting database with SPSS, MSAccess, etc for a report requested by our mgmt.
I find "program" and "module" in the v$_session table but don't see similar info in the SYS aud$ table. And v$_session info doesn't get "saved" over the course of a day/week/month.
Any ideas how to accomplish this?

See this, but note the caveats:

"Connection is closed" closed error while using MS Access database

We are using MS Access database in our project. Recently the database was upgraded to 2000.
After upgrading the database, I get the folowing error when getAutoCommit() is called on a connection -
java.sql.SQLException: Connection is closed
at sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcConnection.validateConnection(Unknown Source)
at sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcConnection.getAutoCommit(Unknown Source)
The connection is not closed explicity before getAutoCommit() is called, only the statement is closed.
This error is sporadic and occurs under load scenario only (when a lot of connections are open). Once the error occurs, all the database calls fail then onwards. The error was not occuring before the database was upgraded.
I suspect the jbdc-odbc driver. The driver might not be compatible with Access2000 database. Under load scenario, it might be closing connections automatically.
Has anybody faced similar problem before? Where can I find the compatible jdbc-odbc driver? And how to ensure that it is jdbc-odbc driver problem only?
The database verison - MS Access 2000
Java version - 1.3.1_01

can i just point out that there is no support for transactions in Access so I wonder why you are calling autoCommit methods at all...

Use of Access database

Hi,
I want to write a application that uses an Access Database. Actually I want to write data to and read data from a Database with Labview. Does anyone knows a library to control a Access Database. Or any other solutions.
Davy

You've got several options. There is a shipping example that uses DDE to talk to an Access database. DDE sucks so you probably don't want to do that. There is ActiveX. There have been a lot of examples posted to the forum so you might want to do a search. ActiveX can be a real pain though. The nicest solution is to buy the Database Connectivity Toolkit from NI. It uses ADO/SQL to communicate to any database and hides a lot of complexity of learning SQL. There is also the free open source toolkit called LabSQL from Jeffrey Travis. This uses ADO/SQL to talk to any database. You'll need to learn SQL but that's not really that big a task.

Using MS-Access database in JSP application

Hi, all. I am new in JSP world. I have an Access database and I�d like to access it in my JSP Application.
Does anybody know I could do this?

Define your database as an ODBC source and then use the JDBC/ODBC bridge. It's actually only a few lines of code - see http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/jdbc/basics/index.html

Run external programs using runtime class

Okay, I'm experiencing a really annoying problem with java.lang.runtime
I'm building a GUI that needs to run some external programs, via a button say. These generally produce a text file or something, so I don't need to stream the output or anything (at least I'm assuming I don't?). Should be very simple...
So at the terminal (bash) I would type ./programName , and everything will run hunkey dorey.
In my code then, natrurally, I write
String cmd = "./programName";
Process p = runtime.getRuntime().exec(cmd);
But low and behold...nothing happens. What is going on here, and how do I get around it! ??
(On windows incidentally, it's no problem at all and works absolutely fine. But when I go over to mac, which is what I need to use, I'm screwed - only adding to the annoyance!)
Any help would be much appreciated as I have a deadline looming!!

You need to read the 4 sections of [http://www.javaworld.com/javaworld/jw-12-2000/jw-1229-traps.html|http://www.javaworld.com/javaworld/jw-12-2000/jw-1229-traps.html] and implement the recommendations. Failure to implement all the recommendations will cause you grief.
P.S. The fragment of code you have posted shows that you have fallen for at least 4 of the traps.

Load external program using labview

Hi, i want to be able to run an external program e.g. a calibration routine using some other software. Then close the sequence i run in the external program, then run another sequence. Whats the best way of doing this?
Stu

Are you trying to invoke this program and then interact with it like a user would and then continue on with your program?
You would need to know if this other application has some type of machine interface (API). It would be very difficult if not impossible to simulate a user to control the application through its UI. How does this application normally run? Does it support ActiveX? If so, you can interact with it that way. You would have to know the specifics of whatever interface it provides. Without that information I am not sure we could really give you any other suggestions.

Calling external programs using labview

I have a LV program running to collect and display data, but also need to call an external program while doing this. I have a menu set up where one button launches my system control .vi, one launches my data display .vi, but there is another feature that is handled by a program a co-worker has written. Is there a way that whenever a button is pressed, LV can launch an external .exe file? Basically, I just need LV to call the executeable... the program that is called will be terminated by the user.
Jim

Try function palette -> Communication -> System Exec.vi

External programs using in Java

Hello

How can I call some (in this case console application) applications from my Java code and then handle that application;s output.
For example: Netbeans, IDE written in Java is using Java compiler, external console application, and then it takes its output and writes it on own Netbeans console.
Any ideas how to do this?
Thanks for replies.

Hi,
->Have you installed the JDBC drivers on XI server. Can you please check.
->Which DB are you polling?
Please check if respective drivers are installed in the J2ee stack. you can get a help 4m ur basis team on this.
DB drivers (jar files)can be obtained from respective vendors.
have a look in the following discussion,it looks like the drivers are different
