Using ESB + DBAdapter with a BLOB column

Hi
Are there any tips and tricks for using the database adapter with a BLOB column from a table?
I'd like to get a hex coded string out, if I put 012346789ABCDEF into the blob colum I get ASNFZ4mrze8= as the output in the file adapter.
Any tips welcome
Angus

Legatti,
I have feedback=10000. However by monitoring the import, I know that its loading average of 130 records per minute. Which is very slow considering that the table contains close to two millions records.
Thanks for your reply.

Importing a table with a BLOB column is taking too long

I am importing a user schema from 9i (9.2.0.6) database to 10g (10.2.1.0) database. One of the large tables (millions of records) with a BLOB column is taking too long to import (more that 24 hours). I have tried all the tricks I know to speed up the import. Here are some of the setting:
1 - set buffer to 500 Mb
2 - pre-created the table and turned off logging
3 - set indexes=N
4 - set constraints=N
5 - I have 10 online redo logs with 200 MB each
6 - Even turned off logging at the database level with disablelogging = true
It is still taking too long loading the table with the BLOB column. The BLOB field contains PDF files.
For your info:
Computer: Sun v490 with 16 CPUs, solaris 10
memory: 10 Gigabytes
SGA: 4 Gigabytes

How can I use the DBAdapter with SequencingPollingStrategy in OSB Cluster?

Hi!
I have a OSB cluster. I need to read a view with the DBAdapter. I use SequencingPollingStrategy to implement the adapter.
Then I import it into OSB and make it work and the service works normally in the single node.
But if I import it into OSB cluster, the service always read the duplication records from the view.(the Distrbute polling is not worked in SequencingPollingStrategy )
So how can I use the DBAdapter with SequencingPollingStrategy in OSB Cluster?
Thank you!

Nope. Version 5 is a fashion accessory: it looks like software, but it doesn;t actually do anything. Sort of like a sports car with a lawn-mower engine. Looks snzzy. Doesn't really work. (And given how buggy it is, I should further specifiy that the lawn-mower engine comes with a blade: it chews up your old templates, produces files that cannot be sent as email attahcments [yes, really], and—this just in—doesn;t play well with the new SMB facility of Mavericks. In short, as one reviewer put it, "un unmitigated disaster."

Using UPPER function with LONG datatype column

Can anyone tell that how can I use UPPER function on a column which has data type as-- LONG?
For ex--
SELECT * FROM TABLE WHERE UPPER(LONG_COL) LIKE 'MYTEXT%';

Thanks,
AbhijeetI think you'll have to write a function to do this for you. You can use DBMS_SQL to break a LONG into pieces and work with 32K segments. I am not sure how to put the converted data back into the LOB at that point, though DBMS_SQL might provide a way to do this.

Batch load images (tiff) into table with a BLOB column

Hi,
Does anyone know any third-party tool/software to bulk/batch load images into Oracle table? There is an ETL software to regularly pull the images (tiff) from a ftp server to a directory in the database server. There is no way I can hardcode the image filenames into the control file and use SQL*Loader to load the files. Is there any tool/software that can just grab whatever files in the directory and load them into Oracle. Then, I can write a program to extract the filename from the file already loaded into the table and update the filename column.
Thanks.
Andy

sound like simple scripting to me...

Problem with blob column index created using Oracle Text.

Hi,
I'm running Oracle Database 10g 10.2.0.1.0 standard edition one, on windows server 2003 R2 x64.
I have a table with a blob column which contains pdf document.
Then, I create an index using the following script so that I can do fulltext search using Oracle Text.
CREATE INDEX DMCS.T_DMCS_FILE_DF_FILE_IDX ON DMCS.T_DMCS_FILE
(DF_FILE)
INDEXTYPE IS CTXSYS.CONTEXT
PARAMETERS('DATASTORE CTXSYS.DEFAULT_DATASTORE');
However, the index is not searchable and I check the following tables created by database for my index and found them to be empty as well !!
DR$T_DMCS_FILE_DF_FILE_IDX$I
DR$T_DMCS_FILE_DF_FILE_IDX$K
DR$T_DMCS_FILE_DF_FILE_IDX$N
DR$T_DMCS_FILE_DF_FILE_IDX$R
I wonder what's wrong with it.
My user has been granted the ctx_app role and I have other tables that store plain text which I use Oracle Text are fine. I even output the blob column and save as pdf file and they are fine.
However the database seems like not indexing my blob column although the index can be created without error.
Please advise.
Really appreciate anyone who can help.
Thank you.

The situation is I have already loaded a few pdf document into the table's blob column.
After I create the Oracle text index on this blob column, I find the system generated index tables listed in my earlier posting are empty, except for the 4th table.
Normally we'll see words inside the table where those are the words indexed by oracle text on my document.
As a result, no matter how i search for the index using select statement with contains operator, it will not give me any result.
I feel weird why the blob is not indexed. The content of the blob are actually valid because I tested this by export the content back to pdf and I can still view and search within the pdf.

Jap.

Table with BLOB column re-partitioning

Currently I have a table with a blob column Z partitioned on Column X I want to re-partition the table on Column Y is there a quick way of doing this.
INSERT INTO SELECT * has limitations on the blob size I guess.
Can someone explain this?
Edited by: user10229350 on Mar 1, 2010 7:36 AM

I am using hash partitioning looks like split partition doesn't apply for hash partition:
"The SPLIT PARTITION clause of the ALTER TABLE or ALTER INDEX statement is used to redistribute the contents of a partition into two new partitions. Consider doing this when a partition becomes too large and causes backup, recovery, or maintenance operations to take a long time to complete. You can also use the SPLIT PARTITION clause to redistribute the I/O load.
This clause cannot be used for hash partitions or subpartitions."

Uploading a file (.doc, .xls, .txt) into an Oracle table with BLOB column

Hello All :
I have been trying to figure out for a simple code I can use in my JSP to upload a file (of any format) into an Oracle table with a BLOB column type. I have gone through a lot of existing forums but couldnot find a simple code (that doesnot use Servlet, for eg.) to implement this piece.
Thanks a lot for your help !!

Hi.
First of all to put a file into Oracle you need to get the array of bytes byte[] for that file. For this use for example FileInputStream.
After you get the byte array try to use this code:
        try {
            Connection conn = myGetDBConnection();
            PreparedStatement pstmt = conn.prepareStatement("INSERT INTO table1 (content) VALUES(?)");
            byte[] content = myGetFileAsBytes();
            if (content != null) {
                pstmt.setBinaryStream(0, new ByteArrayInputStream(content), content.length);
            pstmt.close();
            conn.close();
        } catch (Exception ex) {
            ex.printStackTrace();
        }or instead of using ByteArrayInputStream try pstmt.setBinaryStream(0, new FileInputStream(yourFile), getFileSize());Hope this will help...

How to know exact size of table with blob column

I have a table with one BLOB column. I ran this query.
select bytes/1024/1024 from user_segments where segment_name='GMSSP_REQUEST_TEMP_FILES'
(user_segments is a view)
it gave me 0.125
It means size of table is 0.125. I have uploaded 3 files to this table. Each of them is of 5 mb. After that I check size of table. but result was same. i.e 0.125.
Can any body tell me how to know exact amount of space consumed by files. I am expecting following result
size should be (5+5+5+0.125)MB
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks.

Sample insert into table with BLOB column

This is my first opportunity to work with BLOB columns. I was wondering if anyone had some sample code that shows the loading of a blob column and inserted into the table with a blob column.
I have to produce a report (including crlf) and place it into a blob column. The user will download the report at a later time.
Any suggestions / code samples are greatly appreciated!!!!

You can enable string binding in TopLink.
login.useStringBinding(int size);
or you could enable binding in general,
login.bindAllParameters();

Problem full-text in blob column index created using Oracle Text

Hi,
I'm running Oracle Database 10g 10.2 on solaris
I configure Oracle text if i look for in a varchar2 column is ok, but with blob column doesn't works the search.
I have a table with a blob column which contains document. I load document with Oracle UCM (stellent)
My index scripts is:
CREATE INDEX ORAUCM.FT_IDCCOLL1 ON ORAUCM.IDCCOLL1
(DDOCFULLTEXT)
INDEXTYPE IS CTXSYS.CONTEXT
PARAMETERS('DATASTORE CTXSYS.DEFAULT_DATASTORE FILTER CTXSYS.AUTO_FILTER FORMAT COLUMN DFULLTEXTFORMAT CHARSET
COLUMN DFULLTEXTCHARSET LEXER OCS_IDCCOLL1_LEXER SYNC (ON COMMIT)')
NOPARALLEL;
And my select retunm 0 rows although it will be many documents:
SELECT IdcColl2.dID, dDocName, dDocTitle, dDocType, dRevisionID, dSecurityGroup, dDocAuthor,
dDocAccount, dRevLabel, dFormat, dOriginalName, dExtension, dWebExtension, dInDate, dOutDate,
dPublishType, dRendition1, dRendition2, VaultFileSize, WebFileSize, URL, dFullTextFormat,
dFullTextCharset, DocMeta.*
FROM IdcColl1, DocMeta
WHERE IdcColl1.dID=DocMeta.dID AND (CONTAINS(dDocFullText,'SUBIR') > 0 )
ORDER BY dInDate Desc
Thanks in advance.

Thank you for your answer.
I response your question:
- yes DDOCFULLTEXT is a BLOB column.
- The document that word, excels, whatever. We load the document with UCM (universal Content Management)
because i need full-test search form UCM tool.
- Yes 'subir' containts in the word document.
- select * from CTX_USER_INDEX_ERRORS ;
No rows returned.
- SELECT TOKEN_TEXT FROM DR$FT_IDCCOLL1$I
No rows returned.
- I tried create symplifying index and doen't work.
I tried create table and index context on oracle 10.2.0.3 (test database)and works ok.
I compared both context (test database and ucm database) and i saw a difference:
In ucm database there are these preferences "analyze text"
BEGIN ctx_ddl.create_preference('ORAUCM.', 'WORLD_LEXER'); end;
BEGIN ctx_ddl.create_preference('ORAUCM.', 'DETAIL_DATASTORE'); end;
I don't know if is important diference or no.
Please if you need more information, tell me.
Thanks for your time.

How can I insert a image into a BLOB column in a table?

I am using forms6i against a 10gR2 database and I have one table with a BLOB column and I try to insert a image into this column. I get ORA-01461 error.
The curious case is that in another table with a BLOB column it works very fine.
What happens with the first table? How can I avoid the error?
Thanks in advance.

Load .bmp file into BLOB column in 9i - how to?

Hello all,
How do I update a table with a BLOB column with a .bmp file in 9i? I tried using the DBMS_LOB package but got a ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: invalid LOB locator specified: ORA-22275 (and since there is more native support in 9i, I'm not sure I need it to begin with). We do not have Inter-Media. tia [email protected]

Create Downloadlink with custom blob to start other Application

Greetings!
We are using Apex 4.2.1 and another system. For this other system you can use simple files with an id, that start it and open a specific page, same way like e.g. automatically opening ms-word, when downloading a .doc file.
So we would like to have a column in an APEX-report, that has this download functionality. I have read throu How to convert varchar to BLOB in oracle 10g? and took a look at this APEX tutorial and a Blog from Eddie Awad.
But still I cant get it to work.
For testing purposes I have created a table with a blob column, and a procedure, like the one in the APEX tutorial.
When I call the procedure like in that example#OWNER#.download_my_file?p_file=#ID#I get the error message: The requested URL /pls/prod/(our owner).download_my_file?p_file was not found on this server. Maybe it does not work with the server setup we are running, or needs some adjustments?
Also as mentioned by Eddie Awad, that APEX supports BLOB columns in reports, doesnt work for me. The column output (both IR and classic) is "unsupported Datatype".
Can you help me with any advice in this matter?
Thanks very much in advance,
best regards,
tobi

Hi PARS,
thanks for the link.
I followed the example, looks like a nice approach, but I cant get it to work.
I created the procedure, the non-public the Page-0 process(On Load:Before Header), the app-item, and a link with the url as described in that example. But when linking, I get the error ORA-01403: No Data found. The process is not executed.
I think I can solve it with the APEX-buildin BLOB download feature in an IR - i have firuged it our now. But using a procedure would still be a much better solution.
edit:
Hi Mike,
thanks for your hints. I have included a propper filename and mimetype in the table. However, if I use a table to open the blob, that would have to be filled beforehand and joined to the other report. So using a procedure on another page would still be better. I will try later again to get that to work.
So far, thanks for your help,
tobi

Error when updating blob column

Hello,
im using the SQL-Developer and i have problems with updating blob columns.
I'm getting the following error:
UPDATE "MED400_INSTALL"."AMEDN_INSURANCE_TEMPL" SET WHERE ROWID = 'AAM6j5ABGAAAADpAAJ' AND ORA_ROWSCN = '26019698898'
One error saving changes to table "MED400_INSTALL"."AMEDN_INSURANCE_TEMPL":
Row 15: ORA-01410: Ungültige ROWID
I'm updating different tables and different rows.
This error is not shown in all cases. I can update some rows but not all off them.
Is this a bug?
TIA

I made some further investigations and have some more results.
- the problem does not occur all the time
- the problem seems to occur in the following situation
- User A: updates the blob-field using the sql developer menu and commits (-> success)
- User B: updates the blob-field using the sql developer menu and tries to commit (-> error)
- the error stays until User B does a rollback, after the rollback user B can update the blob-field! and user A gets the error.
Here are some extracts of sql developer log. It shows that the same row can be updated in somes cases, in others cases you get an error. After a rollback the field can be updated successfully The rowid ist the same. ora_rowscn is different:
UPDATE "AZUBI2"."AMEDN_INSURANCE_TEMPL" SET WHERE ROWID = 'AAc6TTACEAAAAHQAAC' AND ORA_ROWSCN = '26087686991'
One error saving changes to table "AZUBI2"."AMEDN_INSURANCE_TEMPL":
Row 1: ORA-01410: Ungültige ROWID
Rollback Successful
UPDATE "AZUBI2"."AMEDN_INSURANCE_TEMPL" SET WHERE ROWID = 'AAc6TTACEAAAAHQAAC' AND ORA_ROWSCN = '26087687075'
Commit Successful
I could offer a dump where you can possibly reproduce this issue. Where can I send or upload it.
