Using DBMS_ALERT package

Hello,
I would like to use DBMS_ALERT package. I have read documentation about this package. It works correctly but I have noticed that sometime the pl/sql block (with dbms_alert) performed quick but sometimes it lasted too long. There is no traffic od the server. So my questions are followed:
a) what could be the reason that calling dbms_alert sometimes last too long?
b) how performance is affected
c) waiting session has active status. It is good idea to use shared server for this purpose?
Thanks

I have just now solved my problem with DBMS_ALERT :-). I described my problem badly.
My application using dbms_alert started wait when I issue statement dbms_alert.waitone (in another thread). The problem was that my database was misconfigured :-(. I have only one shared_server process and session with dbms_alert.waitone blocked this shared server and any other session cann't work for a while.
SASA
PS: The way of understanding is very twisting :-)

Dbms_alert package under C++ Daemon

Hi,
I have created a C++ Daemon whihc is using dbms_alert package.
When Daemon runs it makes a call
dbms_alert.waitone("ALERTNAME","MESSAGE", STATUS);
well this is a blocking call as i don;t want to use timeout as 0.
Now when i want to stop my Daemon how can overcome this blocking call?
Many Thanks

Thanks
But i have alreay mentioned that dbms_alert.remove doesn't work.
Here is a code snippet -
As one can see below that i m looking for code snippet under '_Stop' function as i want to stop the thread workign which is blocked inside 'Action' function.
ie when i sent SIGNAL
kill -SIGTERM <PID>

Using dbms_job package

1.I wanted to know if I can run a .sql file from the dbms_job package.
2. I also wanted to know the feature in oracle that I can use to send email to myself once the job is executed- showing successful execution or errors.
Thanks for your suggestions.

You cannot pass parameters back from a job-- Oracle spawns a separate session to run your job, so that session would receive any OUT parameters and end immediately after the job finishes. Even if Oracle let you do this, you would lose the OUT value as soon as the job ended.
If you want a job to return a status, you can-
1) Store the status in a table
2) Queue a status message in an Oracle Advanced Queue
3) Use dbms_alert to alert another process

Problems with the dbms_alert Package

Hello everybody,
I am having some problems while using the ORACLE dbms_alert
package, problems which are not documented, at least anywhere
that I can tell.
Namely the table dbms_alert_info, which holds the registered
alerts of the coresponding sessions doesn't seem to behave the
way it is expected. To be more specific: I start one session and
I begin to register alerts. Everything is fine with the table.
But when a new session starts and tries to register an alert
(doesn't matter if it is identical with the previous session's
alerts or different) the first session's registered alerts are
deleted and are replaced with the latest registered alert of the
second session. The strange thing is that after the first time,
everything works just fine (that is alerts are registered as
expected from both sessions). The problem is that there is no
source code from the package body (as you may have noticed the
package body is 'wraped').
So, please, if someone has encountered the same problems (and
solved it) let me know.
Thanks a lot

You will need to grant execute of DBMS_PIPE to the owner login
Or any login that would use the DBMS_PIPE
Login as SYS and execute the following:

Error while sending a mail using UTP_MAIL package in Oracle 10g

Hi,
We are using UTP_MAIL package to send a mail from Oracle 10g.We have follwed the following steps ...
SQL> connect sys/password as sysdba
Connected.
SQL> @$ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin/utlmail.sql
Package created.
Synonym created.
SQL> @$ORACLE_HOME /rdbms/admin/prvtmail.plb
Package body created.
SQL > alter system set smtp_out_server = '<mail_server_ip:25>' scope =spfile;
System altered..
Now we try the code
begin
utl_mail.send(
sender => 'sender's mail',
recipients => 'receiver mail',
CC => 'optional',
subject => 'Testing utl_mail',
message => 'Test Mail'
end;
But we get the following error...
ERROR at line 1:

We also tried connecting to the mail server through telnet .But it is not getting connected..
Please help us to solve the issue.

From your own posting you may have the clue, if you try to access your mail server through telnet and it is not successful, it means the service is down or there are networking issues.
On pre 10gR2 versions there was a bug 4083461.8. It could affect you if you are on 10gR1
"Bug 4083461 - UTL_SMTP.OPEN_CONNECTION in shared server fails with ORA-29278 Doc ID: Note:4083461.8"
This was fixed on 10gR2 base and on 9.2.0.8.0

How to delete data from a file using IO package

Hi All,
i am trying to remove some content of the file.
this content is not at starting of file not even at end of file.
can anybody tell me how can i delete number of lines from file using IO package.

iam having some data in text file .ex:in flowrist.txt
12/5/07,500,300,6000 like many set of datas are
there.In these if i want to delete the data based on
the date which i specified.How to do this specific
deletion?You need to open a stream to read in the file and then use the indexOf method provided in the Sting class to check if the line contains the date or whatever String you are looking for, if so then skip that line and store or re-write the lines you wish to keep, as well as some extra lines you may wish to add.
Take a look below at this example found on Google.
http://www.java-tips.org/java-se-tips/java.io/how-to-read-file-in-java.html
The above read a file line by line and prints it to console. You should be able to modify this, instead of using System.out to print the line you should use index of to check the lines for a date/String. Index of return -1 if the String you specify is not in the line you parse.

Help finding and using a package

hi guyz,
Iam new to this forum and i need this info urgently. so plz try to help me.
I want to use the package below in an applet to convert my TemporaryRegistrationPermit to create a PNG file and then print it.
how can i get the above package. I searched a lot on net and even on IBM website but never found it. How can i get it and include the class file in an applet and use the methods in it.Is there any other way to include this package in my applet, i mean a URL pointing to this class file.
package com.ibm.gs.houston.saz.trp.utils.TemporaryRegistrationPermit
I would really appreciate an early reply
thank you
tarun

How do you know you need this package ? You know the path to it, so you must have seen it referenced somewhere.
Some background please, but it sounds like it's an IBM internal class of some sort, so I wouldn't get your hopes up unless you have legitimate access to this or know it to be freely available.

Submitting Oracle job via OCCI using dbms_job package

I am using 10g client to connect to a 9i Database on Redhat Linux AS 3.0.
I am trying to submit a job via OCCI. I get back a jobId, but don't see the job in the user_jobs table or the result of the job being executed.
I am using occi::Statement in the following way :
stmt = connection->createStatement("begin dbms_job.submit(:v1, 'submitJobTest;', sysdate,'sysdate+1'); end;");
// where submitJobTest is a stored procedure
stmt->registerOutParam(1, OCCIINT);
stmt->executeUpdate();
int jobId = stmt->getInt(1);
I get back a job id, but can't find it in the user_jobs. The first time I executed the program, i got back jobId 0, then 1 and so on..
Any ideas? Do I need to use dbms_scheduler package?
Thanks, Nilofer

Good catch!
Had a bug, in that my autocommit was not being set!
Works now.
Thanks,

How do I create and use a package?

Sorry for the noobish question, but I have never had the need to use a package and currently would like to learn how they work just to satisfy my own curiosity.
Suppose I have a file named Node.class in a folder named Classes, and I have another class named Main.class sitting in another folder. I want to create a Node object using the Main class.
How do I accomplish that? Would I need to use a package?
I tried to write package Classes; on my Main file but it did not work. thanks

This is an old explanation I wrote:
This is a minimal explanation of packages.
Assume that your programs are part of a package named myapp, which is specified by this first line in each source file:
package myapp;
Also assume that directory (C:\java\work\) is listed in the CLASSPATH list of directories.
Also assume that all your source files reside in this directory structure: C:\java\work\myapp\
Then a statement to compile your source file named aProgram.java is:
C:\java\work\>javac myapp\aProgram.java
And a statement to run the program is:
java myapp.aProgram
(This can be issued from any directory, as Java will search for the program, starting the search from the classpath directories.)
Explanation:
Compiling
A class is in a package if there is a package statement at the top of the class.
The source file needs to be in a subdirectory structure. The subdirectory structure must match the package statement. The top subdirectory must be in the classpath directory.
So, you generate a directory structure C:\java\work\myapp\ which is the [classpath directory + the package subdirectory structure], and place aProgram.java in it.
Then from the classpath directory (C:\java\work\) use the command: javac myapp\aProgram.java
Running
Compiling creates a file, aProgram.class in the myapp directory.
(The following is where people tend to get lost.)
The correct name now, as far as java is concerned, is the combination of package name and class name: myapp.aProgram (note I omit the .class) If you don't use this name, java will complain that it can't find the class.
To run a class that's NOT part of a package, you use the command: java SomeFile (assuming that SomeFile.class is in a directory that's listed in the classpath)
To run a class that IS part of a package, you use the command java myapp.aProgram (Note that this is analogous to the command for a class not in a package, you just use the fully qualified name)

Error while invoking webservice using UTL_HTTP package

Hi All,
I am invoking a webservice (SOAP Request) from a PL/SQL block using UTL_HTTP package.
I am able to send the complete request and am getting the required instance on the BPEL Console, but the process is errorring out while getting response back.
and the PL/SQL Block is ending in error mentioned below:
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-29266: end-of-body reached
ORA-06512: at "SYS.UTL_HTTP", line 1321
ORA-06512: at "APPS.CSM_BPEL_TEST_PKG", line 34
ORA-06512: at line 1
Can anyone let me know what is the cause of this.
Thanks in advance

My guess would be that your request is not properly constructed,
29266, 00000, "end-of-body reached"
// *Cause: The end of the HTTP response body was reached.
// *Action: If the end of the HTTP response is reached prematurely, check if
// the HTTP response terminates prematurely. Otherwise, end the

can you elaborate more on this?
I can open http://127.0.0.1:7101/Application15-Model-context-root/HelloWorldPort?wsdl
on my browser.Is your browser on that Oracle server? You are instructing Oracle server code (the UTL_DBWS package) to access that URL.
The IP in that URL is a localhost IP address - and that means using the local IP stack only. So it expects a web server on the Oracle server platform on tcp port 7101. It cannot use that IP to access your client/development machine.
How can I test it using UTL_HTTP?You can write a basic web browser, minus the rendering engine, using UTL_HTTP. You can also use it for web service calls - which is my preference as I deem the UTL_DBWS package to clunky and complex.
See:
{message:id=1925297} (sample PL/SQL web browser)
{message:id=4205205} (sample PL/SQL web browser SOAP call)

Dynamic attachment name with receiver mail adapter and use mail package

We need to send mapped XML payload as attachment (with dynamic name) to a recepient (recepient email id is part of input xml payload, but not part of the mapped XML payload).
I could probably do this using the adapter module (as per the following link),
http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/XI/Adapter%20Module%20PI%207.0%20Set%20Attachment%20Name?bc=true
I would like to explore if this would be feasible using Mail package and XI payload.I already have a Java mapping that is converting the input XML to required Output format. If I am using Mail package (XI Payload), how do I go about sending this Output XML from java mapping as attachment to email id available in the input payload?

Hi,
1) XML payload as attachment (with dynamic name)
2) recipient (recipient email id is part of input xml payload, but not part of the mapped XML payload)
These two is possible by using Mail Package. You have a standard xsd for mail package which you can download from the SAP Note 748024.
The xml created in you java mapping which will be your attachment should be put into the <content> tag of the mail package xml structure. and the file name can be set in the <Content_Type> tag.
<?xml version="1.0"; encoding="UTF-8"?>
<p2:Mail xmlns:p2="http://sap.com/xi/XI/Mail/30">
<Subject>My Invoice</Subject>
<From>from email address<;/From>
<To>to email address</To>
<Content_Type>text/plain;name="MyFile.csv";</Content_Type> --> file name here
<Content>123;A49;aaa</Content> -> attachment xml here
</p2:Mail>
And you have to select MailPackage in the receiver mail adapter.
