Tracking when a Trigger is getting fired

Hi All,
Is there any way through which we can identify that any changes made in db is because of triggers.
How does oracle track triggers event.
thanks,

I'm probably missing something but how would you use FGA to determine whether a DML operation was
the result of a trigger or not? You can obviously audit who did what. But I'm not seeing an obvious way to
determine that DML was fired by a trigger or by something else...Sorry, I should have explained myself better. Frequently (but not always) this sort of question revolves around
some sort of auditing issue - many posts ask this in the hope of avoiding paying for the auditing option. I was
merely suggesting that IF this was the case, you're far better off going with Oracle's solution - already
debugged, more "testers" - i.e. users. I've had more than one boss who went with "home brew" solutions
to the detriment of the business (not to mention the employees' sanity ;) ) - but, as I said above, I should have
been clearer in explaining the exact context of my post.
HTH,
Paul...

  • When Validate Trigger is getting executed when Execute_query

    i have a data block in which i have 2 text item. i have defined when validate item.
    when the form is starting up i have given execute_query. before fetching the values my when validate item is getting executed. i dont want to do this. can one help me out in this case

    Hi,
    Can you pls. check any initial value is given or not? Otherwise for quick solution you can declare a parameter upon which when-validate will validate the value. You can change value before and after 'EXECUTE_QUERY' statement. This is not a good idea.

  • Which trigger gets fired when a filed (item) get populated

    Hi,
    Which (item level) trigger gets fired when a filed (item) get populated with data
    Thank you

    Thanks for the responce. But....please read the following and try to understand the probelm.
    I have a screen in Oracle Forms.
    For example the screen is EMP and I have a LOV on item: EMPNO
    After selecting an EMPNO from the LOV, I click on a button and the button's trigger (WHEN-BUTTON-PRESSED)
    populates the remaining items with data related to the EMPNO in the EMPNO item which I selected from the LOV.
    Here is the request: I want the items get populated when I select the EMPNO from the LOV.
    I copied the code from WHEN-BUTTON-PRESSED (which is populating the data into other fields) to the triggers you mentioned
    (pre-text-item, when-new-item-instance, when-validate-item, post-text-item)
    But they are not working (the data is not populating when I select EMPNO from LOV)
    I am a DBA not a developer, but I have to do this. So please help me and let me know how to do this.
    I hope you understand the request.
    Thank you

  • While using direct load whether trigger get fired

    1. While using direct load whether trigger get fired?
    2. Is it possible to log the errors with triggers if any event get failed?
    Say for example am have a trigger audit  with insert event on a table A.
    is it possible to have any error table to monitor when the event get failed. Like the audit table or else track the failure operation with  the audit trigger.

    1. While using direct load whether trigger get fired?
    Oracle doesn't use direct-path INSERT if the target table has any triggers or referential constraints.
    See the SQL Language doc:
    http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11882_01/server.112/e26088/statements_9014.htm
      The target table cannot have any triggers or referential integrity constraints defined on it.
    So you would not be using direct-path if the table has any triggers.
    2. Is it possible to log the errors with triggers if any event get failed?
    Say for example am have a trigger audit  with insert event on a table A.
    is it possible to have any error table to monitor when the event get failed. Like the audit table or else track the failure operation with  the audit trigger.
    Yes and No - DML Error logging can put rejected rows into an error table so that the entire INSERT will not get rolled back.
    But some datatypes are not supported and there are other restrictions also:
    See the SQL Language doc
    http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E18283_01/server.112/e17118/statements_9014.htm#SQLRF55101
    Restrictions on DML Error Logging
      The following conditions cause the statement to fail and roll back without invoking the error logging capability: 
    Violated deferred constraints.
      Any direct-path INSERT or MERGE operation that raises a unique constraint or index violation.
      Any update operation UPDATE or MERGE that raises a unique constraint or index violation.
      You cannot track errors in the error logging table for LONG, LOB, or object type columns. However, the table that is the target of the DML operation can contain these types of columns. 
    If you create or modify the corresponding error logging table so that it contains a column of an unsupported type, and if the name of that column corresponds to an unsupported column in the target DML table, then the DML statement fails at parse time.
      If the error logging table does not contain any unsupported column types, then all DML errors are logged until the reject limit of errors is reached. For rows on which errors occur, column values with corresponding columns in the error logging table are logged along with the control information.
    See also the direct-path and dml error logging sections of the DBA guide

  • When validate getting fired in Clear_block(No_Validate)

    When validate getting fired in Clear_block(No_Validate)
    In my button where code for clear block is present there is navigation to some of the blocks where when-validate triggers are present.
    As suggested in one of the solutions posted in metalink I cannot set the mouse navigate property of the button to No due to design constraints. Also navigation to other blocks cannot be prevented.
    The code in when-validate tests whether the field is null or not.Hence it bombs after a clear block (no validate).
    As a work around I created a timer in when validate and placed my code for validation in the whentimer expired trigger.It works fine, but does not seem to be a good patch.
    Can you suggest a better solution.
    Regards,
    Vinson

    The code in when-validate tests whether the field is
    null or not. Hence it bombs after a clear block (no
    validate). In your when-validate, do this first:
    If :system.record_status = 'NEW' then
      Return;
    End if;
    The return causes the when-validate to exit successfully, before it checks the field for null. You will want to place some validation somewhere else (in the key-commit or in the commit button wbp trigger) to ensure your field is not null before a commit is executed.

  • Issue with When Validate Trigger firing multiple times

    Hi guys,
    I have Designed a Form Personalization on a Form which Fires a concurrent Program (built in:execute Procedure) when a Record is Saved.
    Below are the issues I am facing:
    1.Concurrent Program is Firing Multiple Times after Saving the Record.
    2.2 input Values to Concurrent Program are passed as NULL though I have Data but they are in Different Block of Form.
    Note :I have When Validate trigger on 1 Block but i am trying to pass 2 Values on Another Block as input parameters for Concurrent program.But those values are getting as null when program fires.
    Thanks.

  • Can we have triggers that get fired when we Query a table?

    Hi All,
    What could be the pricise answer to the following question?
    1. Can we have triggers that get fired when we Query a table?
    2. What the relation of triggers and delete, truncate statement in one line?
    3. What is data modelling? Why is it necessary?
    4. Which are not mandatory but essential files in Oracle?
    Regards,
    AAK

    1. Can we have triggers that get fired when we Query a table?for INSERT, UPDATE and DELETE statement, yes
    for SELECT statement, no.
    Question 2 is not clear for me.
    Question 3 is very very general ...
    4 >Which are not mandatory but essential files in Oracle?
    all database files (initialization file, control files, datafiles, redo log files) are mandatory. What is not mandatory but considered as a (very) bad practice is
    to have only 1 control file and only 1 redo log group with 1 redo log file.

  • How can i get my car to change the track when i am listening to the music on my phone through the line-in?

    how can i get my car to change the track when i am listening to the music on my phone through the line-in? is there a app i can download so it will recognize it? i have a vauxhal astra and the controls are on the steering wheel

    First question is how old is Astra and you are in UK ( well you must be to have a Vauxhall)
    Normally the Radio only has a line in socket  to allow sound
    You have two choices here either a simple cable with a 3.5mm Headphone plus at each end
    or a cable with the headphone plug to place in car's line in plug and a wide Apple socket to fit the base of your iPhone This allegedly gives better sound but  you have to control the iPhone for music selection
    The equipment you need to control the iPhone from the Steering Wheel controls ,which I suspect currently handles radio /Cd  tracks /stations ,is much more complicated it will have to be integrate with the Factory Fitted  radio
    and designed to manage the S/Wheel  controls and translate to the iPhone .
    Fitted into back of radio etc etc
    If car is a recent Vauxhall there may be a kit available from them .but will not be cheap
    Many imponderables you did not give much away in your OP

  • Trying to import cd, it only shows tracks, not song titles. when i try and get the titles it says im not registered for online use even though im signed in. how can i fix this?

    Im trying to import songs from a cd, but it only shows track numbers, no title of songs.when it try to get the titles it gives error code saying im not registered for online use. i am signed into my account so i dont know how to fix this.

    The "not recognized for on-line use" error is associated with the Gracenote service that iTunes uses to look up and retrieve metadata for CDs.  Some users have reported that this error occurs when trying to import from CD, subsequent to upgrading to version 12.  A number of slightly different solutions have been reported (though all of a similar nature).
    Try walking through the following steps - before starting you may have to enable hidden files and folders to be viewed - in Windows 7 / Windows Explorer select Organize > Folder and search options, then on the View tab make sure that Show hidden files, folders and drives is selected.  Without this you won't see the AppData folder in C:\Users\username\.
    Exit iTunes
    In Windows Explorer, go to the folder C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\iTunes
    Delete the following files:
    CD Info.cidb
    com.apple.iTunes.Gracenote.plist
    Restart iTunes
    Insert a CD and see if details are now correctly retrieved from Gracenote
    If this doesn't work: 
    In iTunes, select Edit > Preferences and make a note (or take a screenshot) of your preferences settings in all relevant tabs
    Exit iTunes
    In Windows Explorer, go to the folder C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\iTunes
    Delete the following file:iTunesPrefs.xml
    Restart iTunes
    Insert a CD and see if details are now correctly retrieved from Gracenote
    If this second procedure does work, you'll need to restore other iTunes preferences settings to those that you noted in step 1.
    If this one didn't work: 
    Exit iTunes
    Check the following folders:
    C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Apple Computer\iTunes
    C:\Users\username\AppData\LocalLow\Apple Computer\iTunes
    Delete any copies of the following files:
    CD Info.cidb
    com.apple.iTunes.Gracenote.plist
    iTunesPrefs.xml
    Restart iTunes
    Insert a CD and see if details are now correctly retrieved from Gracenote
    Again, if this procedure does work, you'll need to restore other iTunes preferences settings to those that you noted in step 1 of the second procedure. 
    If you're still not able to retrieve CD info: 
    Exit iTunes
    In Windows, select Start > Control Panel > Programs and Features.  Find the entry for iTunes, right-click and select Repair.
    When this process has finished, restart iTunes
    Insert a CD and see if details are now correctly retrieved from Gracenote
    If none of these have worked (and almost everything I've seen suggests you should be OK by this point), you may have an issue with the installation and configuration of iTunes itself.  If you have got this far, see turingtest2's notes on Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates for advice on how to remove and replace of all components of iTunes.

  • I've lost the voice track when I listen to music with headphones.What happened? Can I get the complete sound back?

    I've lost the voice track when I listen to music with headphones.What happened? Can I get the complete sound back?

    Try compressed air. Try tweezers and a magnifying glass with good light.
    The next step would be to Google an iPhone repair service in your area or use this as a good reason to upgrade.

  • Why am I getting a delay on one of my tracks when I have added no effects?

    Why am I getting a delay on one of my tracks when I have added no effects? It sounds like a latency problem.

    AVI should never be used for iDVD.  Even Microsoft abandoned AVI and moved to WMV.  The reason for this is that AVI is limited to 2 GB is file size and has limited video codec support.  If you have problems with AVI in iDVD, convert it to Quicktime right away.

  • When new record instance not firing on Purchase Order form

    I query a purchase order and click on the shipment lines button. There are 2 shipment lines in this example. I am using CUSTOM.pll to inject some specific code to restrict the cancel functionality. One line I want to restrict the cancel functionality and the other line I don't want to restrict. The problem arises when I click between the two rows on the Org or Ship to fields. No event or trigger gets fired that I can see; hence, the CUSTOM.pll code does not get injected and the user will be able to cancel both lines. Any ideas? Thank you for your time,
    -Kevin

    What does that mean? In the middle of creating a record?
    But how come system allows me to go to the 2nd tab when it goes to the last record and doesnt allow me to go the 2nd tab when i create in middle of the record
    Seems that there is some difference in the data of the two records, maybe one record passing validation and the other one not.Validations are same, both the scenario it just creates a new record.

  • Problem with when validate trigger

    Hi All,
    I am using oracle forms 10g.
    I have developed a custom form In that i have two block Header block and Detail block.In the header block some fields like Po number, po amount , supplier name, supplier site etc. And in the detail block i have po line details.
    I have written a validation trigger under supplier name and supplier site, IF block.supplier_name is null then
    message('enter supplier name') same under every field.
    Now when the user enter po number it will go to po amount field and now when the user press tab it will go to the details block and query all the po related line,so i have written key-next under po_amount go-block and my code, Its works fine and giving the correct output. But the problem is When validate trigger fires when i press tab in PO Amount fields, Once i press ok it going to details block and querying.
    Can any one explain me what i have done wrong. The validation trigger is firing and giving message.
    Regards

  • When-tab-page-changed not firing

    I have 2 seperate forms opened on a single page. One displays on left side of screen and has tabs. One display on right side. If I am currently on my right side form (no tabs) and click on a tab on the left side form, it seems the 'When-tab-page-changed; trigger is not firing the first time. I have tried this on 6i and 10g webforms. If I try it on client/server 6i it works. Any suggestions?

    I just tried this with 10gR2 in web. My form with the tabs only get focus and does not call when-tab-page-changed when you click on a tab after returning from the other form.
    A 2nd button press does then call the when-tab-page-changed.
