User defined in unix

Hi
I'm using the "User defined" object in OWB in a process flow running unix.
What should I write under the heading: command ?
I've tried /bin/bash and sh, but no one works.

Yes, c:\winnt\system32\cmd.exe is used in Windows. But I'm using Unix.
So, my question is what is the coresponding comand in unix?
Normaly you can write "sh" or "/bin/bash", but it does not work for me.

User defined workflow calling unix shell script

Hi
I have defined a workflow in OWB 10GR2 which calles a user defined object before calling the actual mapping.
The user defined object calls a unix shell script which sets things right in the shell before the mapping can run.
When executing the shell script from a unix shell myself it does exactly what I want
However if I call the same script from workflow it does not recognize any of the commands not even internal shell commands like ls, touch.
I've created a small test.sh script
#! /bin/bash
ls -l > listing.txt
Created a flow with a user_defined object of which property is set:
COMMAND.Value /home/oracle/test.sh
If I then deploy and start the flow get the following:
PF_WEB_00:TEST Success
/home/oracle/test.sh: line 2: ls: command not found
Anyone has any clue why this is or what I'm doing wrong?

Hi Lew,
Thanks for the reply.
This basically confirms what I've figured out so far.
I noticed I was able to get my script running by using absolute paths everywhere, after which my only problem was it could not resolve the TNS.
To bypass this I ended up copying all the path settings out of the .profile of my oracle user into my script after which the script ran fine.
At least now I know for sure what's causing it and that by making my scripts a bit more extensive then usual I can do what I please :)

Process Flow - User Defined object calling Unix Shell script not working

Hi, I have a User Defined Object in a Process Flow with the following parameters :-
Command: /usr/bin/ksh
Parameter List:
Result Code:
Script: cd /shell_scripts
./dwh_get_datafile.sh param1 param2 param3
Success Threshold: 0
The script executes but it does not correctly interpret all the Unix commands within it e.g command such as FTP, DATE, GREP etc.
In the job details I can see :-
./dwh_get_datafile.sh: date: not found
./dwh_get_datafile.sh: ftp: not found
./dwh_get_datafile.sh: grep: not found
./dwh_get_datafile.sh: rm: not found
./dwh_get_datafile.sh: ls: not found
./dwh_get_datafile.sh: awk: not found
Anyone know what I have done wrong ?
The script runs fine when run as a Unix script while logged into Telnet.
Thanks.
Paul

The shell script is executed by the oracle user in the unix environment so make sure that the directorie where you can find the unix commands exists in the path for the oracle user in .profile as you can se in my example below.
PATH=$PATH:$ORACLE_HOME/bin:$OWBHOME/bin:/ASW/ora_script:/local/bstat:/usr/bin:/opt/bin:/usr/local/bin; export PATH

How to configure "User defined" activity in a process flow

I want to start a shell script from a workflow process in an Unix environment. I use owb 10.2.0.1
Name of shell_script:           verify_infile.sh
Location of shell_script:     /ASW/dw
3 parameters to the script:     X X /local/db/import/rain/finans.dat
First parameter is the letter X
Second parameter is the letter X
Third parameter is the path and file name I want to verify
I assume it's the User defined activity I should use and the parameters of the user defined activity are as follows
4 IN PARAMETERS
COMMAND
PARAMETER LIST
SUCCESS THRESHOLD
SCRIPT
1 OUT PARAMETERS
RESULT_CODE
So my question is what shall I have as in parameters in the User defined activity?
Kind regards
Jan

Here is the solution to the case
First make sure parameter in (owb_home)\owb\bin\admin\Runtime.properties is not disabled.
If it is, change the parameter to the value NATIVE_JAVA as described in the file:
property.RuntimePlatform.0.NativeExecution.Shell.security_constraint = NATIVE_JAVA
Second
COMMAND: /bin/sh
PARAMETER LIST: ?/ASW/dw/verify_infile.sh?X?X?/local/db/import/rain/finans.dat?
RESULT_CODE: 0
SCRIPT:
SUCESS_THRESHOLD: 0

How to make an applet load user-defined package?

How to have an applet load user-defined package?
I have packages in their own directories, and the applet compiles and links with them, by use of CLASSPATH env variable. But when it comes time to run, it ignores that and does not know where the classes (in the packages) are.
If I don't use packages and put all code in one directory, runs fine. If I use an application, I can link with and load my packages.
I know applets can't use things like CLASSPATH for security reasons, but still, they should be able to be compiled out of several packages, why do I have to put all code together??

OK, for reference for future newbies, here's the answer:
use CODEBASE attribute in your html file (if on Windows server, don't use drive letter but relative path to .html file, Unix style, and put all your .class files beneath that, for example, in your .html file
<applet
CODEBASE="..\class
and then have package bar Bar.class file, in ..\class\bar

User Defined activity does not log messages

I have created a User Defined activity which calls a unix shell script.
This script writes messages to standrard output ("echo") that I want
the process flow to catch in its log, so I can see the messages in
Control Center Manager.
This was actually the behaviour of my User Defined activity until recently.
I must have changed, unintentionally, some parameter/configuration that
I cannot remember. Maybe some "suppress script-messages" parameter? :-)
Anyone in this forum who knows which paramater I might have changed
and/or how I can get back the old behaviour of my activity?
// Pontus

I had the same experience recently: I was trying to log a message to a Unix file, but the process flow would always fail, even though the script executed well from the Unix prompt.
The problem in my case was that redirection is not supported from within an OWB version 9.0.4 process flow. Once I eliminated the "echo My message > logfile" everything was fine. You can even keep "echo My message" with no redirection and it's still ok.
The above holds regardless of where you put your script -- external Unix file, or as part of an "external process" icon in the flow.
If things are the same in your case, you'll need to figure out an alternative way of logging messages when executing the script. I decided to use external files as flags, by renaming them from the script.

User Defined Activity Process Flow Help

Hello,
I'm trying to create a process flow that will rename a file. I'm using the User Defined Activity, but I've ran into a couple problems. First some background info, Oracle 10G is the DB, and it's ran on a Unix system, the Oracle user account does have read/write access to the directories used.
For the Activity Parameters I've set
Command > I've tried everything here
Parameter > Blank
Script >
filefullname=ip_xref.dat
filename=${filefullname%.*}
fileext=${filefullname##*.}
DATE=`date +%Y%m%d`
newfilename="${filename}_${DATE}.${fileext}"
mv $filefullname $newfilename
mv $newfilename backup/
in the command section, I've tried every possible thing I can think of from : /usr/bin/ksh, /bin/ksh, ksh, /bin/bash, made a script outside owb with the same thing, and pointed it at that and still all I get is "/bin/bash: not found" or "/usr/bin/ksh: not found"
Ideas/suggestions, I'm open to anything.
As a side note I tried to do it with UTL_FILE, but I was informed by our DBA that it was disabled for security, so that's out.

What type of execution is configured for user defined activity (this type is defined in file Runtime.properties on server side, available types for UDA - SCHEDULER or NATIVE_JAVA)?
For SCHEDULER type ask your DBA about Uinux user used for executing external jobs (usually nobody user used with very limited rights - maybe this user doesn't have rights for executing any program/scripts).

Error while processing a user defined screen

Dear Experts,
We have developed an add on for our client in which we have a user defined screen before adding the GRPO. While adding that we are getting the error to generate this document first define the numbering series in the administration module.
this is happening only after we upgraded to the 2007 B PL 10 version. till that there was no problem. We are unable to remove and replace the UDO and UDT as we have data in it.
due to this we are unable to proceed with the GRPO.
Please help us.
thanks and regards,

Issue with xsd Data type mapping for collection of user defined data type

Hi,
I am facing a issue with wsdl for xsd mapping for collection of user defined data type.

In the above wsdl the collection of fintObjInst if of type xs:anytype. From the wsdl, I do not see the xsd mapping for AccountIC which includes Name and Desc. Due to which, when invoking the web service from a different client like c#(by creating proxy business service), I am unable to set the parameters for AccountIC. I am using JAX-WS stack and WLS 10.3. I have already looked at blog http://weblogs.java.net/blog/kohlert/archive/2006/10/jaxws_and_type.html but unable to solve this issue. However, at run time using a tool like SoapUI, when this wsdl is imported, I am able to see all the params related to AccountIC class.
Can some one help me with this.
Thanks,
Sudha.

Did you try adding the the XmlSeeAlso annotation to the webservice
@XmlSeeAlso({<package.name>.AccountIC.class})
This will add the schema for the data type (AccountIC) to the WSDL.
Hope this helps.

Error in conditional map using User Defined Function

All,
In my mapping I basically have a user defined function that returns the filename of my inbound file from the adapter-specific message attributes (file adapter). I know this is coded properly because if I simply assign this function to my destination field I can see the filename in the payload XML.
However if I conditionally check that returned value using if,then,else I get an error message stating:
"During the application mapping com/sap/xi/tf/_MaterialData2ZcustProdMastMulti_ a com.sap.aii.utilxi.misc.api.BaseRuntimeException was thrown: RuntimeException in Message-Mapping transformation"
Essentially in my if I'm checking if the value returned by my user defined function is equal to the constant "SOMECONSTANT" then I'm setting my destination field to some other constant value. Otherwise it's equal to a different constant value.
Any thoughts?

Claus,
Thanks for the help. I actually had figured the problem out on my own. Sorry for not updating the thread sooner. What happened was this (as I suspected it wasn't related to my user defined function). For the newbies out there (of which I'm one) the problem was I was comparing strings in the graphical mapping tool using the Boolean "EQUALS" rather than the Text "EQUALSS".
Can you give yourself points for solving

Using user-defined data types in Forms 6i

When I use the following code in Oracle Forms 6i
PROCEDURE test IS
prcl prcl_ty;
BEGIN
prcl := prcl.setParcel('xxx-xx-xxxx');
END;
I get 'Error 801'. However the above does work in SQL editor. The online help says PL/SQL8 client-side program units cannot support Oracle 8 object-related functionality and I suspect this is the reason I get the error from Forms. Is there a work-around for this.

You are correct in your assumptions. Client side PLSQL does not support user defined types like the one you are trying to use.
There are no workarounds I am afraid.

How to pop-up a text box for a grid item on a user defined table?

Hello,
I have a user defined table with a grid & one of the columns is for comments. What I'm trying to do is to pop up a text box when double clicking in the column field. This would be the same as the Item Details column in the Sales Order ittems grid.
Thanks,
Ron

Please post your question on SDK forum. Only SDK could meet your need.
Thanks,

Adding user-defined number of text fields.

Okay I am having problems, obviously. I am developing a program where the user will enter X and Y values and the program will calculate the relational data. However, I can't even get a start.
First of all, the user defines the number of pairs of points they want to define. For example, they have 20 points, each with its own X and Y, so they click on 20 and then okay in the first window.
The next window will then take their answer and display X and Y text fields for as many points as they defined. However, I can't figure out any way to do this.
Feel free to run the program, the problem lies in the method setTextFields(). Help please!

How to let the user define the colors for each plots in the graph (I use LabVIEW 7)?

How to let the user define the colors for each plots in the graph (I
use LabVIEW 7)?

Hi,
Take a look at this example, it uses property nodes to select tha
active plot and then changes the color of that plot.
If you want to make the number of plots dynamic you could use a for
loop and an array of color boxes.
I hope this helps.

How do you use user defined error messages in Value Help?

Hi,
I'm currently working on a Modifiable Value Help Selector in Web Dynpro Java, and I want to use a user defined error message when I validate the values entered by a user. Currently, it's returning its default error message ("Character <string> does not match...").
Since the project requires a different error message, is there a way to override the default error message and use my defined error message instead?
Thanks!

Hi Angelo,
I am not sure why message area is showing both Custom and inbuilt messages but you can try the following:
i guess you must be using reportContextAttribute exception for showing Error messages on the input fields as well.in that case you can disable the message area so messages will appear only on the Context level ie; on input fields.
For other messages apart from validation messages you can enable the message area before reporting the exception.
make sure the boolean context variable which will be used for enabling and disabling the message area should have Readonly property set as true.
I am not sure whether this is the only solution for this but you can try and see if it works.
