Utl_file.fgetattr not working in Oracle Reports

Hi there,
I try to use the utl_file.fgetattr function in an Oracle Report program unit as below, but it returns that the file does not exist. However executing it in TOAD or SQL Developer it return that the file exists.
utl_file.fgetattr('directory', 'filename.ext', v_exists, v_length, v_blocksize);
IF v_exists THEN
srw.message(100, 'The file exists.');
ELSE
srw.message(100, 'The file does not exist.');
END IF;
What could be the problem?
Thanks in advance!

You have to use utl_file inside the database. So, move your code to a stored procedure and call that procedure from Reports.

FormatTrigger on line is not working in Oracle Reports

Hi there,
I am using Oracle Reports 6i and trying to format code as follows :
I have three sections of data say a,b,c.
1) If there is no data returned in Section b and c, then I need to print a line just after section a ends.
2) If there is no data in section c but section a and b have data, then line should not appear after section a, but after section b
3) If all sections are having data , then line should appear after section c.
Format trigger for after section A
function B_2FormatTrigger return boolean is
begin
declare
ret_val boolean;
begin
ret_val := false;
if :CS_MATERIAL_TERMS = 0 and :cf_mh_count = 0 then
ret_val := true;
end if;
return ret_val;
end;
end;
format trigger after section B
function B_4FormatTrigger return boolean is
begin
declare
ret_val boolean;
begin
ret_val := false;
if :CS_MATERIAL_TERMS = 0 and :cf_mh_count <> 0 then
ret_val := true;
end if;
return ret_val;
end;
end;
format trigger after section C
function B_9FormatTrigger return boolean is
begin
return (TRUE);
end;
:CS_MATERIAL_TERMS = is the summary column which defines data in section C
:cf_mh_count= is the formula column which defines the data in section B
current issue is that.. in some cases the line is appearing after section A, though section B has data
Please help...
Thanks.

Sum function do not work in oracle reports enhanced spreadsheet format

we are using oracle reports 10.1.2.3 in our oracle application server 10gr2 and we are creating enhanced spreed sheet.And the report opens in MS excel fine.But we can not apply any formula like VALUE,SUM,AVG on that report after opening it into excel.First we thought that it may be because of the comma in the number filed.we removed that comma from the filed but t still gives the error "Error in value"

Hi,
I hope you already solved this problem, I had the same issue after spending an hour I found the workaround, this is just for the guys who experience the same issue. Try to format your number columns either at database level(not via Report builder property palette) with TO_CHAR(...) OR use this Format Mask at Report level to format your numbers -NNNGNNNGNN0D000(negative sign must be there to avoid space in output Excel).
Hope it helps,

Share calculation Not working in the report

Iam surprised not to ge the simple share calculation not working at my report.
I have a dimension and corresponding values ( measures) .I made a Total at the end of the report. and I want to calcualte share of Total to each corresponding value.
how to do this, any thougts,...
I have used calculated memebers for this, But I wan to make the percentage of the total ( which is calculated inside Tool itself)
Please help....

Prassad,
Not totally sure what you are trying to achieve but there a couple of possible solutions:
1) Total = total of all dimension members. Assuming you only have three dimension members then you should have a fourth member called ALL_DIMS or something similar. In the Share calculation template you need to specify the Total level as the basis for your share calc. This will generate the following result:
                         Revenue % Share
- All Members     600         100%
     A                  100           17%
     B                  200           33%
     C                  300           50%2) The total you are referring to is in fact a sub total and is the result of adding together only the results for A + B + C, i.e. you have hundreds of dimension members but you specifically want to see a total for just these three members. To do this create a new custom aggregate call "My Total" and add together the dimension members A + B + C - Custom Aggs are a new feature to Discoverer OLAP (Checkout Mark Rittman's excellent blog article for more information on this feature: http://www.rittmanmead.com/2006/11/13/checking-out-the-new-discoverer-101220-features/)
Then in the Share calculation wizard set the basis for your index using the last option in the list "Specific Dimension Member" and select your new custom aggregate member.
Hope this helps

Triggers not working in Oracle 9iAS

The form triggers are not working in oracle 9i AS.
My Application server has Linux operating system with oracle form/report server installed. I am able to upload the form
in the client machine (using Internet Explorer Win98 OS). Also i can feed in the data but none of my triggers are working (WHEN BUTTON PRESSED and other validation triggers).
Can anyone suggest what to do pls.
Tnks in advance

Well we've tested on Linux and the trigger do work - I remember two other postings on this forumn from prople with the same problem:
Re: SQL Developer Necessities
Re: About EXPLAIN PLAN table
In one case the problem was not re-compiling using f90genm.sh, in the other it was something to do with the Machine setup but I don't know what the final resolution was.
The only other thing is to make sure that you are on a certified linux release for using with iAS e.g. Redhat Server 2.1 and Suse Enterprise server 7 and Untited Linux
You can check the current certifications on Metalink.oracle.com

LOVs not working in Webi Report for SAP BO 4.1 SP 2 Patch 3

Hello ,
I have developed reports and universes in SAP BO 4.0 SP 5 and i have migrated those reports to higher version of BO which is 4.1 SP2 Patch 3.
My universe is working fine with LOVs but when i run the webi report , the LOVs arent working.
have anyone facing the same issue. any idea why the LOVs arent working on higher version.?

Hi Victor,
The List of values we will assign in universe in order to get filtered data works on universe query panel
but the same objects when i am using in report(webi report) , the List of values are not working .i.e
they are not getting displayed in webi report.
for ex: i have country object having country names as LOVs and state objects having state names as LOVs . Now when i select Country value , the LOVs of state objects should get filtered and shows only states which belongs to country .
the above logic is not working in webi report , i am only able to select country and when i go for state, the state names do not get filtered.
please let me know why this is happening in the SP2 patch 3 version and its working fine for SP2 , but the chrome issue gets solved after applying patch 3 and not if we only upgrade to SP2.
the webi reports are not working in chrome browser if we using SAP B04.1 SP2 and lower version
but the LOVs are not working in SAP BO 4.1 SP 2 patch 1, 2,3.
kindly help me with the issue

tnx,I haven't a clue.
As you have been advised in many of your posts, go study the documentation for whichever specific topic you are interested in.
For me to answer your questions, I would need to go get that documentation.
Then I would need to read that documentation.
Then I would need to write a forum post that interprets what I think I learned from that documentation.
It is so very much faster if YOU go do that instead of posting to a forum and expecting others to do it. You will remember what you study for a lot longer time if you teach yourself.

Runtime.exec() in Java not working in Oracle 10 Application Server

Hi ,
I am trying to call a .exe file which is in the Web Application folder .
I am Using Process p = Runtime.exec("path to .exe file ")
This code is working fine when used with JBOSS , but not working with Oracle Application server .
Please tell me whether i need to do any chnages to make it work
Thanks in advance .

I ran a quick test with your code, I just had to make some small changes, and things work for me...
I'm testing with JDeveloper 10g 10.1.3.2.0 ...
The only thing I wonder is DBUser DBPass DBHost, those are not the actual values, correct?, neither they are environment variables?...
In the server hosting your OAS, you should try running the whole CMD line from the start/run dialog ... make sure it works in that server ...
Here is the code used in my test:
In JSP:
<%@ page import="runexepkg.*" %>
<%
String msg = "";
try
RunEXE p = new RunEXE();
msg = p.main1();
catch(Throwable t)
     System.out.println("Exception Raised");
     t.printStackTrace();
%>
<%= msg %>In Java Class:
package runexepkg;
import java.sql.*;
public class RunEXE
    String ss="";
    public String main1()
    try
        Runtime rt=Runtime.getRuntime();
        Process p = rt.exec("CMD /C start C:\\oraappserver\\j2ee\\WebGis\\applications\\PowerGis\\web\\WEB-INF\\classes\\GisProject\\cust_data_1.exe DBUser DBPass DBHost");
        System.out.println("Command has been executed");
        Class.forName("oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver");
        Connection con = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:oracle:thin:@DBHost:DBPort:orcl","DBUser","DBPass");
        System.out.println("Test Connection ========== "+con);
        Statement st = con.createStatement();

        if(rs.next())

Tabular form validation(Checkbox) is not working for Interactive report

Hi,
I am using the oracle apex 4.0 and oracle 11g.
I have written a below select query on interactive report as
select
apex_item.checkbox(1,RESIDD)||apex_item.hidden(2,RESIDD) row_selector,
apex_item.text(3,RESNUM) as resnum
from "PDRRES"
and written the validation to display the error message( Function returning error text ) as
DECLARE
vRow BINARY_INTEGER;
BEGIN
-- apex_application.g_print_success_message := NULL;
FOR i IN 1 .. apex_application.g_f01.COUNT
LOOP
vRow := apex_application.g_f01(i);
apex_application.g_print_success_message := apex_application.g_f01(i)||'-'|| apex_application.g_f03(vRow) ;
END LOOP;
END;
Output : No data found error message
As far as it work for sql report with above logic because apex built in row selector
but it fails in case of interactive report for some reason.
Please suggest.

Please suggest.NO DATA FOUND usually occurs when an i mplicit select does not find anything. It can also occur when referencing a collection element that has not been defined.
You have 2 collectinons in the code you posted, apex_application.g_f01() and apex_applciation.g_f03. Since you are looping therough the COUNT attribute of g_f01 its reference ("I") is probably okay and the value store in vRow is probably not right. You can check this by using RAISE_APPLICTION_ERROR to see the value something like
raise_application_error(-20000,'vRow="'||vRo2||'"');Remember that working with checkboxes is tricky. If the box is not checked nothing will be sent. You may need to define a default value when no value is submitted.

My requirement is i want to bring this images in form / report. Based on click button, the value need to be parsed to other page?
how to do it?

v1 := v1 || ' ' ||'<input inline type =submit style="color:BLUE;background-color:RED" value='||c2.plot_id||'>';
...It is not possible to generate form elements in an APEX page in this way. The [APEX_ITEM API|http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E14373_01/apirefs.32/e13369/apex_item.htm#CACEEEJE] is the only way to create APEX items in PL/SQL. However it contains no procedures to generate button items, so an alternative design is required in this case, e.g. a report with links.
(Also what is the intention of "inline" in the above code? [There is no *inline* attribute|http://www.w3.org/TR/1999/REC-html401-19991224/interact/forms.html#h-17.4].)
