Using a variable for the "format" parameter for disk/directory name

In the interest of maintainability, I'm trying to use an environment variable in the format parameter. I've found that RMAN is able to interpret the $ORACLE_HOME and $ORACLE_BASE variables, but others give the error:
RMAN-03006: non-retryable error occurred during execution of command: backup
RMAN-07004: unhandled exception during command execution on channel t1
RMAN-10035: exception raised in RPC: ORA-07217: sltln: environment variable cannot be evaluated.
RMAN-10031: ORA-19583 occurred during call to DBMS_BACKUP_RESTORE.BACKUPPIECECREATE
Is there any more specific documentation about what variables are supported within RMAN? (I've found nothing in the manuals beyond the excerpt I included below.) Does anyone know if the "port-specific directory" mentioned in the excerpt below
can be modified/customized?
Thanks....
format 'format_string'
specifies the filename to use for the backup piece. Any name that is legal as a sequential filename on the platform is allowed, provided that each backup piece has a unique name. If backing up to disk, then any legal disk filename is allowed, provided it is unique. If you do not specify the format parameter, RMAN stores the backup pieces in a port-specific directory ($ORACLE_HOME/dbs on UNIX).

i have used a different directory other then port-specific one and i am able to backup .
format '/disk2/app/oracle/test/%d_%s_%t' , i have given full path names instead of substitution variables. i am not sure how
they(variables) will work though in rman.

Using bind variables in the model view for master detail

Hi all,
I have a master-detail views setup on the following two queries.
In the first query below - I use two bind variables to collect the start and end date.
you have to add (and :startDate = :startDate and :endDate = :endDate) or you will get errors - bind not defined in sql
I then use the viewQueryCriteria to collect the data on a search panel - so far so good. (Make the bind variables required) along with the other criteria.
The bind variables are displayed in the search panel and the data is entered correctly.
The query executes and all is happy.
VIEWOBJECT1
SELECT DepositAccounts.COA_ID,
... ChartOfAccounts.ACCOUNT_CODE || ' ' || ChartOfAccounts.ACCOUNT_TITLE as description
FROM DEPOSIT_ACCOUNTS DepositAccounts, DEPOSIT_ACCOUNT_DETAILS DepositAccountDetails, CHART_OF_ACCOUNTS ChartOfAccounts
WHERE DepositAccounts.ID = DepositAccountDetails.DEP_ACC_ID
and ChartOfAccounts.id = DepositAccountDetails.COA_ID
and :startDate = :startDate and :endDate = :endDate
Now I add the summation of a value (AMOUNT) to the view object (java - create view impl) to the VOViewRowImpl
and everything works - the value is shown in the transient attribute formatted and looking nice.
VIEWOBJECT2
SELECT PostingBatchAccounts.AMOUNT,
FROM POSTING_BATCH_ACCOUNTS PostingBatchAccounts, POSTING_BATCHES PostingBatches
where PostingBatchAccounts.PB_ID = PostingBatches.ID
and PostingBatches.SOURCE_DATE between :startDate and :endDate
Now I need to add the start date and end date to the child query - before the view executes (or the summation is calculated).
The attributes are in the where clause (PostingBatches.SOURCE_DATE between :startDate and :endDate) in VIEWOBJECT2 which is the child.
I need the child records and the summation to work with the date restrictions.
I would assume you could get access to the child view in the VOViewImpl file and set the bind variables there.
Everything I find is based on the JSF - not the model layer - this should be fairly easy (and common). can anyone give me a hand on this?

SCCM 2012 R2 reporting error: "The DefaultValue expression for the report parameter 'UserTokenSIDs' contains an error: A specified logon session does not exist. It may already have been terminated. (rsRuntimeErrorInExpression)"

Hi,
I have two SCCM environments under same active directory domain and one service account have been used for SCCM configurations on both the environments (QA and PRODUCTION). I am facing similar error as mentioned above while trying to fetch reports on
PRODUCTION site, but the QA site is working fine, though same service account have been used for configuring both. While looking at the reportserverservice_<date> log on my Production DB server i see the following error
"processing!ReportServer_0-3!2124!01/02/2015-09:09:30:: e ERROR: Throwing Microsoft.ReportingServices.ReportProcessing.ProcessingAbortedException: , Microsoft.ReportingServices.ReportProcessing.ProcessingAbortedException: An error has occurred during
report processing. ---> Microsoft.ReportingServices.ReportProcessing.ReportProcessingException: Cannot read the next data row for the dataset DataSet1. ---> System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: Conversion failed when converting the nvarchar value 'Override
Default' to data type int."
My DB and SCCM primary site are different and the reorting services point is installed on remote DB server. Please help me resolving the issue.
Troubleshooting performed:
1.Disabled the registry key 'EnableRbacReporting' from HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\SMS\SRSRP to 0 and then restarted SSRS service and the reporting worked for some minutes after that the registry key reverted back to 1 automatically and
reporting started throwing errors again.
2. Checked with the permissions on DB whether or not 'sysadmin' role is assigned to the SCCM service account.
3. re-registered the SQL management Provider WMI class.
mofcomp.exe “C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SQL Server\110\Shared\sqlmgmproviderxpsp2up.mof”

Hi All,
Finally found exact solution to the reporting error.
Error: while launching SCCM reports (both from Console and web based) an unexpected error occured with error message as "The DefaultValue expression for the report parameter ‘UserTokenSIDs’ contains an error: A specified logon session does not exist.
It may already have been terminated. (rsRuntimeErrorInExpression)"
Solution: This is password replication issue for the domain account used to configure reporting services point in SCCM. If your SQL SSRS reporting services instance and databse runs with local default account whereas the reporting services point on SCCM
primary site is configured with domain account, (As in My case) you need to perform the following in order to get rid of the error.
Launch 'Reporting Services Configuration Manager' from the SQL SSRS box(either Local or Remote), Connect to Report Server Instance->Go to 'Execution Account' tab->Specify the 'Execution Account' as domain account and password which is used to configure
Reporting Services Point in SCCM Primary Site, and then click apply.
Now Lauch the report either way (Web based or from Console), the error will disappear and all your default reports will execute perfectly as before.

How to use one variable as a default value for another variable?

Hi Experts,
Is it possible to use one variable as a default value for another variable?
For example:
Variable 1 = current calendar year month
Variable 2 = mandatory input ready variable for calendar year month
I want to use variable 1 as default value for variable 2, but also have the ability to change the month if required.
Thanks!
Kathryn

u can use replacement path variable
in that case u can replace the values of 1 variable with the another variable...
but u cannot do this setting
u cannot make variable 2 as mandatory
u cannot enter value for variable 2
because by default it will take the value of variable 1
u have to make follow settings
variable 2
name , technical name
processing by = replacement path
infoobject = ocalmonth
next tab
replaced by another variable
variable name
offset start , offset lenght
save and hit okey

The "SignFile" task was not given a value for the required parameter "CertificateThumbprint"

We have a line of business app which is deployed via clickonce. I can build and publish the application without any problems but when I try to use Continuous Integration (Build each check-in) I get the following error:
2>C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\12.0\bin\amd64\Microsoft.Common.CurrentVersion.targets(3450,5):

We sign the application (to be more specific: the ClickOnce manifest) using a code signing certificate which is registered in the AD as Trusted Publisher.
The Certificate is stored in Certificate store on my local workstation. The Certificate is also in the certificate store of the build server (1. In the Personal Store, 2. in the Personal store of the TFSBuildServiceHost Service Account and 3. in the Personal

We use one ID for the Apps store for 2 iPhones. In the second profile on the Macit is impossible to update apps there is a mistake. What is the decision?

This happens when you both use the same Apple ID for iMessage. To fix this you have two choices:
On one of the phones go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with a different ID. Note: you can still share the same ID for purchasing in Settings>iTunes & App Stores; or
On both phones go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive and uncheck the email address(es) shown under "You can be reached by iMessage at". Also uncheck the other phone's phone number, if present.

Should I specify the Parallel parameter for an non-RAC database?

The Oracle documatation state as the following:
"The Oracle Database 10g Release 2 database controls and balances all parallel operations, based upon available resources, request priorities and actual system load." It show that Oracle can optimize the Parallel level automaticly.
Should I specify the Parallel parameter for a non-RAC database? Most of the transactions are small OLTP.

What parallel parameter are you talking about?
Generally, you may benefit from parallelization in a very similar manner on RAC as on single instance system. And it is in both cases not sufficient to change the value of any initialization parameter to achieve parallelization of queries, DDL or DML.

Using a variable as the comparison set with the IN clause

I am attempting to use a variable as the comparison set in an IN clause:
if <var> is not null and <var> in (<variable>) then ...
if <var> = 'X' and <variable> = 'X','Y' this statement evaluates to FALSE. If, however, I write
if <var> is not null and <var> in ('X','Y') then ...
the statement evaluates to TRUE. Is there a way to force evaluation of a variable prior to executing the statement?

Kumar
That is neat trick and an good example of lateral thinking. However, there is a slight problem with it in that this is true:
instr('1APC2', 'APC')
whereas this is false
'APC' IN ('1APC2')
However, it did inspire me to produce an even neater trick:
create or replace function my_in
(in_value IN varchar2, in_string_list IN varchar2)
RETURN boolean
AS
larray_string DBMS_UTILITY.uncl_array;
ln_count INTEGER;
return_value BOOLEAN := FALSE;
lv_comparator VARCHAR2(4000);
BEGIN
DBMS_UTILITY.comma_to_table(in_string_list, ln_count, larray_string);
FOR rownum IN 1..ln_count
LOOP
IF larray_string(rownum) = in_value
THEN
return_value := TRUE;
EXIT;
END IF;
END LOOP;
RETURN return_value;
END;
Note that the in_string list parameter must be COMMA separated, and spaces will be treated as values. Hence
declare
lb boolean;
begin
lb := my_in('APC', 'DEF,APC,ABC');
if lb = TRUE
THEN
dbms_output.put_line('FOUND');
else
dbms_output.put_line('NOT FOUND');
end if;
lb := my_in('APC', 'DEF, APC, ABC');
if lb = TRUE
THEN
dbms_output.put_line('FOUND');
else
dbms_output.put_line('NOT FOUND');
end if;
end;
produces the following output:

To load that file with BULK INSERT, use this format file:
9.0
4
1 SQLCHAR 0 0 "\"" 0 "" ""
2 SQLCHAR 0 0 "\",\"" 1 col1 Latin1_General_CI_AS
3 SQLCHAR 0 0 "\",\"" 2 col2 Latin1_General_CI_AS
4 SQLCHAR 0 0 "\"\r\n" 3 col3 Latin1_General_CI_AS
Note that the format file defines four fields while the fileonly seems to have three. The format file defines an empty field before the first quote.
Or, since you already have a .NET program, use a stored procedure with table-valued parameter instead. I have an example of how to do this here:

Value has to be entered for an optional parameter for WS

Hi,
I have created a webservice from a PL/SQL package using the below tutorial.
http://st-curriculum.oracle.com/obe/jdev/obe1013jdev/10131/wsfromplsqlpackage/devwsfrom%20plsql.htm
I wrote my package to get the user status from fnd_user table. The package/procedure cannot get simpler than this. There are 2 input parameters (optional) and 1 output parameter. I am able to call this pkg-proc from SQL Plus and everything works fine. I can pass either of the 2 input parameters and the procedure returns the correct information depending upon what is passed. However when I exposed this as a web service, and if I do not pass the user id parameter, I get "Caught exception while handling request: deserialization error: java.lang.NumberFormatException: For input string: """ error. I tried nillable="true" and minOccurs="0" for user id but still it seems the web service is forcing me to enter the value for user id parameter. The other way works i.e. if user name is left blank.
If I change the data type for the 1st parameter (p_user_id) to varchar2, then the WS returns proper info. Seems like nillable="true" works for string (varchar2) datatype but not for integer or number.
Any help will be truly appreciated. Thanks.
