Unable to describe Objects over DB link

we have two databases running on different machines.
let us call db1 and db2 having dbusers - userdb1 and userdb2 respectively.
we created a public dblink on db2 called db1obj.
we created a table ABC on the schema userdb1 at db1.
we created a synonym for the userdb2 at db2 as follows
CREATE SYNONYM UDERDB2.ABC FOR [email protected];
when we login as USERDB1@DB1, we are able to select from the table ABC. However when we describe
DESC ABC
it says gives an error
ORA-04043: object "USERDB1"."ABC" does not exist
What is the problem? how can we solve it?

may be you have to say
desc tablename@db_link

Transfer Address Book - unable to locate object push server

Well, I've seen this issue raised on many forums but no answers forthcoming from either RIM nor service providers - in my case, Swisscom.
The environment & issue:-
unit: Blackberry Pearl 8100 / firmware just updated to v4.2.1.94 (platform 2.3.0.77) - enterprise server activated
Car: BMW 330 new off the line Nov 2008
BMW notes:- according to their literature, the Pearl and this level firmware is fully supported
Before the firmware upgrade...
could make Bluetooth connection but if "transfer address book" was enabled, the link would drop every 30 seconds
After the firmware upgrade...
Bluetooth connection established and stable - even with address book transfer enabled but:-
* address book is not (automatically) transferred
* attempts to force a transfer results in the message (on the Pearl) - "unable to locate object push server"
This seems to indicate the pearl is looking for an enterprise server in the car - why, I don't know
Would be great to break this impasse

I had this problem on my own (I have a car with Bluetooth -Mercedes W204- and a BB 8820) and I was struggling with this for several months. I look everywhere on the internet with no answers and I found a lot of people with the same problem. However.... I think I FINALLY HAVE THE SOLUTION:
Here we go:
- On a bluetooth connection you have, basically, two components.
- You have the BB device and the car device. The key is that the car that is able to receive address book transfers has TWO services:
1) hands free unit
2) Objects Push
The thing is that this TWO services cannot work together AT THE SAME TIME. Normally, you have the car device activated as a "hands free unit", SO, when you attempt to transfer the address book, you receive the famous message "unable to locate object push server".
The one million dollar question is "how can you switch to "Objects push" mode ? Answer: go to Bluetooth, select your car device, open Options and press for "update list of services" and.... voilá!!! the description "hands free unit" will change to "objects push". At that time you will be able to transfer contacts (obviously setting your car device -in my case- to receive those contacts).
Be careful: once you finalized the transfer, you must deactive the car device for receiving contacts and, on your BB, update again the list of services to get your "hands free unit" again because, if not, you were possible will be having problems on connecting over the bluetooth (another common problem I saw in several posts). And that´s it. It worked for me so, pleae try it and Enjoy!! By the way, you don´t need to update your OS....

Report over database link error

Good morning all.
I have a database link LINKA from USERA on LOCALSERVER to USERB on REMOTESERVER.
(create database link LINKA connect to USERB identified by mypassword using validtns)
In USERC on REMOTESERVER I have a TABLEX, with grant all on TABLEX to USERB on REMOTESERVER.
In USERB on REMOTESERVER I have a view TABLEXV, select * from USERC.TABLEX
From USERA on LOCALSERVER I can select * from TABLEXV@LINKA. In fact I can insert/update/delete tablexv from USERA.
I also have a view TABLEXV on USERA, select * from TABLEXV@LINKA. I can also select/insert/update/delete from USERA.TABLEXV.
So far so good - all working as expected.
Then, my APEX app on LOCALSERVER, interactive report, parsing schema USERA, querying TABLEXV, I get the following:
when "Exclude Link Column", I get the error "The requested URL /pls/apex/f was not found on server.
when "Link to Single Row View", report displays correctly.
when "Link to Custom Target", I get the error "The requested URL /pls/apex/f was not found on server.
When I run the select * from TABLEXV as a regular report (i.e. not interactive), I also get the error.
So the only time I get the report displayed correctly is using IR and "Link to Single Row View".
However, clicking on the link (for Single Row View) I get "The requested URL /pls/apex/wwv_flow.show was not found on this server.".
To summarize:
- accessing table via view over database link
- works outside of apex without issue
- inside only works when Link to Single Row View set
- But clicking on link fails
I could live with just having the Link to Singe Row View option if I could disable displaying of the icon so that the user cant click on it.
APEX 3.2.00.27
EE Database - 10.2.0.3 (yes I know out of support)
Remote EE Database - 10.2.0.5
Real object names replaced to protect the innocent!
Anyone got any clues?
I have used remote tables many times in my APEX applications and never had this issue.
Thanks,

Unable to rename objects

In the OMWB, I am unable to rename objects. For example, in the Source Model under the Views folder, I have a view whose name is 100 characters long. I want to rename it to a 30 character name (something meaningful and not system generated.) The on-line help says to use the menu to click on Object > Rename, but that is grayed-out. The only available options are delete and parse. Both of those work, by the way.
I just downloaded and installed OMWB last Thursday, so this is latest version of software. I also got the SQL Server 2000 plug-in, and it's installed correctly because I have been successful at migrating SQL Server 2000 to Oracle 10g.

Hi Mark,
You are quiet correct. The OMWB does not allow you to rename schema objects in the Source Model. The only objects which can be renamed manually are tablespaces and users in the Oracle Model.
The workaround is to rename the view inside the Oracle Model PL/SQL editor. Then your view with get generated with the choosen name.
I have found the following in the OMWB help
"You can customize the Oracle Model by: Creating, deleting, and renaming objects "
This will be logged as a bug as not all objects can be renamed. Could you provide a link to the on-line help document which states "click on Object > Rename" as I am having difficulty finding it, and I will add this to the bug report.
Regards,
Dermot.

How to hide the Alt description when you hover over your links?

I was told that you have to have a description for images, links just about everything. But when I preview my website and hover over the links, a yellow box appears with the description of the images. How do I hide this?

You are previewing with an old (very old?) version of IE, which is the only browser on earth that does what you describe. All other browsers play by the rules and leave the alt attribute values alone (which is what they should do).
You can choose to ignore this, or 'kill' it by adding a title attribute that is empty, e.g.,
<img alt="foo" title=""...
By the way, you add alt attributes to images for accessibility reasons. People who browse with images turned off (and there are some) or people who use screen assistive devices (screenreaders) need some indication that there is an image at the point where they are looking/reading. Consequently, you would only want to add content to these alt attributes where it's important to the message of the page (i.e., a cosmetic-only image would just have an empty alt attribute value). And you only need these for images, not for any other page element....

BB Pearl - 8100 Bluetooth: "Unable to locate Object Push Server..."

I just purchased a New 2009 Audi A4 that has Bluetooth, however my Blackberry Pearl (8100) does not correctly transfer the Phonebook. Based on what I've read on various message boards, I should be happy it at least functions to make & receive calls, however when I try to sync the phonebook, I receive an Error: "Unable to locate Object Push Server..."
My BB Pearl has the following OS Version - 4.2.1.96 (Platform 2.3.0.78).
Based on the Official Audi Documentation, Research In Motion (RIM), Blackberry 8100 (Pearl), GSM, 4.2.0.51 was certified to work with the car. I assume (maybe incorrectly) since I'm at a higher version, I should be ok. I reviewed and have tried several options below, however have not been successful.
1. Turn on Car & Pair, disconnect Phone, then Reconnect and manually "Transfer Contacts"
2. Move Contacts into a Specific Category, then in the Bluetooth Menu just sync that particular category...manually " Transfer Contacts"
3. Disable Encryption & manually "Transfer Contacts" In my Bluetooth menu, it says the following Bluetooth Options are available:
Discoverable: Yes
Allow Outgoing Calls: Always
Address Book Transfer: All Entries
Led Indicator: On
Services
- Headset
- Handsfree
- Dial-Up Networking
Any ideas?
Thanks,- Nick

I too have a 2009 A4 Avant Audi - initially the BB and car paired beautifully, but after two weeks the phonebook would no longer transfer. I managed to solve the problem by deleting the call log. the BB keeps a lot of history and it seems as if over time, the memory get clogged, preventing the transfer of the telephone book. On trying to doing it manually, you then get the unable to locate object push server. Try it, it worked for me

Unable to create object from stored procedure universe

Dear All Experts,
I am facing a problem on unable to create object dimensions on a Stored procedure universe. Fyi, I have successfully insert a stored procedure ('SP_Sales') with input parameter (@date) into universe (Universe_1). But I unable create any object based on the the stored procedured ('SP_Sales') due to it show nothing from the Edit Select Statement of 'Object1', empty for Tables nd columns windows.
Thefore, i unable to drag data in WEBI when i select univese as "Universe_1", it will not sure any object. Please advise.
I am using XI4.0, MSSQL2008.

Hi ,
You wont be able to edit the object definitions.
u2022 Designer generates one table per selected stored procedure (or many
tables if multiple result sets) and one object per column returned by a
stored procedure.
u2022 The result set structure is determined when you describe the function.
Please refer chapter 7(Page 451) of below document for more details.

Hi,
We are on Oracle 11.2.0.2 on Solaris 10. I have two databases on this version of Oracle. From one db I have execute a stored procedure via db link to another database. The store procedure has dynamic sqls (execute immediate) and it uses commit statement as part of the code. Is it alllowed to execute this procedure over db link? I am not aware on the implications on stored proc execution over db link and will be thankful for help.
Thanks,if no error is thrown, why are you looking for problems where none exist?

Interactive report performance problem over database link - Oracle Gateway

Hello all;
This is regarding a thread Interactive report performance problem over database link that was posted by Samo.
The issue that I am facing is when I use Oracle function like (apex_item.check_box) the query slow down by 45 seconds.
query like this: (due to sensitivity issue, I can not disclose real table name)
SELECT apex_item.checkbox(1,b.col3)
, a.col1
, a.col2
FROM table_one a
, table_two b
WHERE a.col3 = 12345
AND a.col4 = 100
AND b.col5 = a.col5
table_one and table_two are remote tables (non-oracle) which are connected using Oracle Gateway.
Now if I run above queries without apex_item.checkbox function the query return or response is less than a second but if I have apex_item.checkbox then the query run more than 30 seconds. I have resolved the issues by creating a collection but it’s not a good practice.
I would like to get ideas from people how to resolve or speed-up the query?
Any idea how to use sub-factoring for the above scenario? Or others method (creating view or materialized view are not an option).
Thank you.
Shaun S.

Hi Shaun
Okay, I have a million questions (could you tell me if both tables are from the same remote source, it looks like they're possibly not?), but let's just try some things first.
By now you should understand the idea of what I termed 'sub-factoring' in a previous post. This is to do with using the WITH blah AS (SELECT... syntax. Now in most circumstances this 'materialises' the results of the inner select statement. This means that we 'get' the results then do something with them afterwards. It's a handy trick when dealing with remote sites as sometimes you want the remote database to do the work. The reason that I ask you to use the MATERIALIZE hint for testing is just to force this, in 99.99% of cases this can be removed later. Using the WITH statement is also handled differently to inline view like SELECT * FROM (SELECT... but the same result can be mimicked with a NO_MERGE hint.
Looking at your case I would be interested to see what the explain plan and results would be for something like the following two statements (sorry - you're going have to check them, it's late!)
WITH a AS
(SELECT /*+ MATERIALIZE */ *
FROM table_one),
b AS
(SELECT /*+ MATERIALIZE */ *
FROM table_two),
sourceqry AS
(SELECT b.col3 x
       , a.col1 y
       , a.col2 z
FROM table_one a
    , table_two b
WHERE a.col3 = 12345
AND   a.col4 = 100
AND   b.col5 = a.col5)
SELECT apex_item.checkbox(1,x), y , z
FROM sourceqry
WITH a AS
(SELECT /*+ MATERIALIZE */ *
FROM table_one),
b AS
(SELECT /*+ MATERIALIZE */ *
FROM table_two)
SELECT apex_item.checkbox(1,x), y , z
FROM table_one a
    , table_two b
WHERE a.col3 = 12345
AND   a.col4 = 100
AND   b.col5 = a.col5If the remote tables are at the same site, then you should have the same results. If they aren't you should get the same results but different to the original query.
We aren't being told the real cardinality of the inners select here so the explain plan is distorted (this is normal for queries on remote and especially non-oracle sites). This hinders tuning normally but I don't think this is your problem at all. How many distinct values do you normally get of the column aliased 'x' and how many rows are normally returned in total? Also how are you testing response times, in APEX, SQL Developer, Toad SQLplus etc?
Sorry for all the questions but it helps to answer the question, if I can.
Cheers
Ben

Writing two linked objects (obj1 is linked to obj2)?

writing two linked objects (obj1 is linked to obj2)
Approach A:

o.close();
Approach B:
ObjectOutputStream o = new ...
o.writeObject(obj1);
o.close();
o = new ...
o.writeObject(obj2); // append

Does the Two approaches are same??
If not how many writes for Approach A and How many for B??
please explain me clearly for the reason ??

Unable to retrieve Object. Failed to load database information

I am getting the following error when trying to run my reports from Crystal XI with SQL Server 2005.
CrystalReportViewer
Error in File 180+DAYREP.EWARP: Failed to load database information.
Unable to retrieve Object.
Error in File 180+DAYREP.EWARP: Failed to load database information.
I have done some research on this but no luck on resolving the issue.
Any suggestions are welcome thanks.

First thought is that the application cannot access the DSN or database driver that the report was designed on, this could be permissions.
I tried to ping my database and was unable to find the host. I was under the assumption it was using TNSNames which is able to resolve.
How can I validate the permissions?
As I said I'm a little lost here. Apologies if I ask stupid questions.

CrystalReportViewer Failed to Open the connection Unable to retrieve Object

I am getting the following Error on trying to view a report in the CMC and the Infoview.
CrystalReportViewer
Failed to Open the connection. ReportName
Unable to retrieve Object.
Failed to open the connection. ReportName
I have recently re-installed Crystal Reports Server XI on a server after a disk failure. I had a backup of my CMS database. I reinstalled the Crystal Servwer without atttaching this database, however crystal did not create a new db so I attached my old one.
I have deleted all my old ODBC connections and recreated them with new names and then reconnected my reports in Crystal Reports XI using the "Set Datasource Location" option and the report works fine.But as soon as I try to view it after uploading it as an object onto the server, I get the above error.
Any help would be appreciated.

I am tagging into this unanswered question as well because I think I have a similar issue. In my case I have a report which runs correctly in Crystal Reports designer but when I move it to the scheduler it fails on a "Failed to connect" to the report. In have used "Set data location" to no avail. When I go to Admin Tools and look at the complete list of datasources for all my reports this particular datasource is listed twice. The group of reports under one of the datasources works correctly. The reports listed under the second datasource all fail. The two datsources are spelled exactly the same and when I sompare the database details for a successfull and a failing report using this datasource they are the same (in the console and in infoview).
I have also checked the ODBC connections on the Crystalserver and there is only one occureence.
Any ideas?
Thanks!

E5 - unable to open. object type not supported

hi.
2 Month back i brought Nokia E-5 Mobile and after few weeks i upgraded the Memory from 2Gb to 8GB. After copying all files from 2gb to 8gb am not able to open or install any existing programs and files. Even maps are not working. When trying to open or install the files am getting this erro " unable to open object type not supported " . Kindly help on this error.
Thanks
Velavan

I have never attempted what you did, so can't say for certain, but I don't think memory card data is meant to be copied from one card to another (unless we're talking about data files like pictures or mp3's). I don't understand what you mean by being unable to install files. Are you trying to reinstall the programs that aren't working? If your 2GB card still works normally, I suggest you format the 8 GB card, reinstall the programs to the empty card, and re-download the maps data. If the programs still give you trouble, you may need to uninstall them from the 2 GB card first, but I don't think that should be necessary. I hope that helps.
