Weird problem using load() on a BLOB

I've got a weird bug when trying to load BLOBs via PHP. Here is the code:
<TT>
<? 
// Environment Variables so PHP can find Oracle 
putenv("TWO_TASK=gonk"); // Name of Oracle Server 
putenv("ORACLE_SID=ora10"); // Name of Oracle Instance 
putenv("ORACLE_HOME=/local/apps/oracle/InstantClient"); 
putenv("DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=/local/apps/oracle/InstantClient");
// Oracle username, password and connection string 
define("ORA_CON_UN", "test"); // Oracle Username 
define("ORA_CON_PW", "blahblah"); // Oracle Password 
define("ORA_CON_DB", "ora10"); // Oracle Instance
// Connect to Oracle 
$conn = OCILogon(ORA_CON_UN, ORA_CON_PW, ORA_CON_DB);
// SQL Query to execute 
$query = "SELECT TESTNUM, TESTCHAR, TESTBLOB "; 
$query .= "FROM TESTING WHERE TESTNUM = 1"; 
$stmt = OCIParse ($conn, $query); 
OCIExecute($stmt); 
OCIFetchInto($stmt, &$arr, OCI_RETURN_LOBS);
$BlobNum = OCIResult($stmt,1); 
$BlobChar = OCIResult($stmt,2); 
$RawBlobBlob = OCIResult($stmt,3); 
$BlobBlob = $RawBlobBlob->load();
print ("BlobNum:".$BlobNum."\n"); 
print ("BlobChar:".$BlobChar."\n"); 
print ("RawBlobBlob:".$RawBlobBlob."\n"); 
print ("BlobBlob:".$BlobBlob."\n"); 
print("***\n"); 
?>
</TT>
Basically, the program works fine under PHP 4.0.5 on a TRU64 box (yes, the BLOB is displayed as a mess of strange characters, but that's cool - if I include a "header("Content-Type: image/jpeg");" line and only output the BLOB by itself the jpeg image stored in the BLOB is displayed properly). However, when it comes to running exactly the same program under PHP 4.4.1 on a OS X box, the program does not display the BLOB. The program is definitely loading the BLOB, as I can get the program to display how big (in bytes) the data in the BLOB is, but the OCI function load() is returning nothing when it should be displaying the data I have in the BLOB.

Anyone got any ideas on what could be causing this behaviour ? It's been driving me nuts for nearly a week!

Cheers, 
Rocky

Glad you fixed it.
See http://www.oracle.com/technology/tech/php/htdocs/php_troubleshooting_faq.html#envvars regarding these lines in your script:
putenv("ORACLE_HOME=/local/apps/oracle/InstantClient");
putenv("DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=/local/apps/oracle/InstantClient");

Weird Problem using Mnemonics

I have a weird problem with mnemonics:
When I use the mnemonic for my JMenuItem to open a specific JPanel the first time (e.g.) it works fine, then if I then close it for example and I still have the "Alt" key pressed I get the follwing exception??? :

The mnemonic are not working because the Window or the Frame on which your components are added have lost the focus while pressing the Alt key.
I had faced the same problem , but I wanted a focus on JMenuBar which i had added to my frame.
when i was clicking the JButton using the mnemonic , i used to loss the focus. But afterwards i put a code in the actionPerformed part of the button to bring the focus to the JMenuBar.
rootFrame.getJMenuBar().getComponent().transferFocus();
rootFrame is my main frame on which the JMenubar is added.
I am using java 4 version.

Weird problem with loading data from an XML using a for loop

Hi,
I have a strange problem. I have encountered this thing many a times but still don't know the proper workaround for it.
I am trying to load swf file, a video file or an image. They can be present on a local system or on a remote server also. All the entries corresponding to the files to be loaded is made in an XML file. I traverse through the nodes of the XML using a for loop. On the complete event of loader info, example:.
loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onComplete);
I fill a container with the loaded data.
My problem is when I am using for loop it doesn't works properly but if i use a statement like this:
someFunc()
 if(i<arr.length())
 ... do something...
 loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onComplete);
private function onComplete(e:Event):void
... do something...
i++;
All files are loaded properly.
I think this can be because the for loop processes pretty fast but the content takes time to load, which ultimately leads to some wierd results.
Please let me know how can this thing be done correctly by using a for loop also.

You don't want to use a for loop to load several items. The way you almost appear to have it is the proper approach... load a file and use the completion of its loading to trigger loading the next file.

Weird problem using bitwise opertor

Hi all,
I have problem with >>> (bitwise logical right shift) operator.
As an example, the result of this operator on 0x8000 value is not as I expect. As I read about this operator, the result of one bit logical right shift should be 0x4000 but the actual result is 0xC000, and as I see in my test applets there is no difference between >> and >>> operators. I tested this operator on both ST and Gemalto cards and the results were the same.
short n=(short) 0x8000;
short x= (short) n >>>1; //Here I expect 0x4000 but the actual result is 0xC000
short y= (short) n>>1; //Here as I expect the result is 0xC000Would some body please explain such weird action of this operator?
By the way, Is there any explicit operator for POWER operation in java card or I should use this bitwise operators instead?
-Thanks a lot
Edited by: bluefairy on Sep 16, 2010 12:50 AM

It is quite simple if you know where to look. Open up your Java Card Virtual Machine specification, if you can find it.
The >>> operator translates to the "sushr" bytecode.
Let's see what that means...
Forms
sushr = 81 (0x51)
Stack
…, value1, value2 −>
…, result
Description
Both value1 and value2 must be of type short. The values are popped from the operand stack. A short result is calculated by sign-extending value1 to 32 bits (footnote 1) and shifting the result right by s bit positions, with zero extension, where s is the value of the low five bits of value2. The resulting value is then truncated to a 16-bit result. The result is pushed onto the operand stack.
Footnote 1
Sign extension to 32 bits ensures that the result computed by this instruction will be exactly equal to that computed by the Java iushr instruction, regardless of the input values. In a Java Card virtual machine the
expression "0xffff >>> 0x01" yields 0xffff, where ">>>" is performed by the sushr instruction. The same result is rendered by a Java virtual machine.
So... What does this mean ? This means that your variable is sign-extended to a 32-bit value (meaning that the sign bit is propagated), THEN the right shift is performed.
See below my comments in the code.
short n = (short) 0x8000;
short x = (short) n >>> 1;
// 0x8000 is extended to 0xFFFF8000
// Right-shift by 1 bit --> 0xFFFFC000
// Cast to short --> 0xC000Hope this helps.
Cheers

MISALIGNMENT PROBLEMS USING "LOAD FILES INTO PHOTOSHOP LAYERS" FROM BRIDGE CC

I'm having a persistent problem which technical support was unable to resolve after being on the phone with them for 1.5 hrs. I was told the issue would be escalated... That was five days ago, and I've heard nothing.
Here is the problem: In ACR working on a bracketed group of five images shot from a solid tripod in Bridge CC. I carefully synchronize all parameters incl. crop, transform, exposure, etc. Then I go to Tools / Photoshop / Load files into Photoshop layers, and the images open in photoshop in a layered file..., BUT some are knocked out of alignment. Actually they have been cropped slightly smaller than the original file, always by the same number of pixels. Sometimes all layers are affected, sometimes not.
Photoshop CC & Bridge CC are both up to date, as is the camera raw plugin. I’m on a new iMac i7 4-core, OSX 10.9.4. All software was newly downloaded from Adobe two weeks ago. I have reset preferences, reset tools in Photoshop, even uninstalled and reinstalled Bridge CC 6.1.0.115 all to no avail. Any suggestions? I am desperate for some help.

I run Windows 7 Ultimate, I have 2.00GB of RAM with 1.74 usable, and I selected 40 images, each about 2MB.

Problem with loading file to BLOB column

I am attempting to load up a .gif gile into a BLOB column in my database.
I created the directory as below:
===
SQL> create or replace directory example_lob_dir as 'C:\temp';
Directory created.
===
Next I created the following procedure to load the file into the BLOB column:
====
create or replace procedure load_blob as
dest_loc blob; -- destination location
src_loc bfile := bfilename('example_lob_dir', 'example.gif'); -- source location
begin
-- Insert intial BLOB value
insert into test_blob(id, file_name, image)
values (1, 'test.gif', empty_blob())
returning image into dest_loc;
-- Open the source BFILE
dbms_lob.open(src_loc, dbms_lob.lob_readonly);
-- Open the LOB (optional)
dbms_lob.open(dest_loc, dbms_lob.lob_readwrite);
-- Load the file
dbms_lob.loadfromfile(
dest_lob => dest_loc,
src_lob => src_loc,
amount => dbms_lob.getlength(src_loc));
-- Close LOBs
dbms_lob.close(dest_loc);
dbms_lob.close(src_loc);
commit;
end load_blob;
===
The file is definitely in the C:\temp folder and is named correctly. I am working in WinXP with Oracle10gXE and both server and client are on the same machine.
The procedure compiles without any errors but when I attempt to run it I get an error message as below:
==
SQL> exec load_blob
BEGIN load_blob; END;
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-22285: non-existent directory or file for FILEOPEN operation
ORA-06512: at "SYS.DBMS_LOB", line 716
ORA-06512: at "FTM.LOAD_BLOB", line 14
ORA-06512: at line 1
==
Any help would be much appreciated.

When you create objects on the database they are stored in the data dictionary by default in UPPER case.
So in this line:
src_loc bfile := bfilename('example_lob_dir', 'example.gif'); -- source location
you need to reference the name of the directory object in upper case. e.g.
src_loc bfile := bfilename('EXAMPLE_LOB_DIR', 'example.gif'); -- source location
;)

Weird problem using "Login" in MaxL script

Hi there
I have created a MaxL script for loading som data into an Essbase. The script you can see below.
login 'user' 'password' on 'nkm18k14';
import database 'realtest'.'Loadtest'
data from text data_file '\\nkm18k00\Planning\Loaddata\lonbud.txt'
using server rules_file 'LonBLoad'
on error write to '\\nkm18k00\Planning\Errorlogs\realtest.txt';
When I try to execute it, as it is i get the following error "(3) Syntax error near ['$'], which im guessin is line 3, right?
When I remove line 1 (the login statement), the script runs just fine. What is goin on, any ideas?
I as a user have write acces to the network locations specified, could it be that the essbase uses som kind of system user that doesn't have acces to the network location?
Any valuable input will be appreciated.
Regards, Jacob

It's true that they are not "needed" from a security approach, but from a maintenance approach you still end up having to touch a large number of scripts if you store the connection details in them.
As a system user, you don't even have to change the password -- but if you have someone leave the company you may just want to.
Either way, I would never want to hard code connectivity details inside dozens of scripts when I can keep it in a single place.
Here is the MXL_Shell file for Windows -- you can obtain the SendEmail.exe from multiple places, but the syntax should be validated.
The location of the scripts, log files, and batch items can of course be modified to your liking as well...
The Errors that are ignored are stored in a file called "IGNORED.TXT" in the Batch directory (see below for what I ignore).

Applescript: Problem Using Load Script File. Please Help :-!

My setup: file 1 is a script object and file 2 is the script that uses the script object in file 1. This seems straightforward, but I'm getting runtime errors when tryig to use the script object, whether looking at its properties or calling its handlers. The whole thing just doesn't work. What am I doing wrong?
Question 1: Is the 'load script' statement correct in file 2? It took forever and looking at many examples to not get an error in that statement. I don't understand why the path string is 'as alias'.
Question 2: When loading a script and specifying its path, is there a way to start with the current path (of the executing script file). All the scripts are stored together, but so far, I've only seen commands for absolute paths or user or desktop, etc. how can I get the path of the currently running script?
Question 3: Is the cURL syntax ok? I can't even get the script to run to that line, so I don't know if it will even execute.
Thanks a million, in advance.
Cheers,
Mark
File 1: this is the script library file
script AR_Redeye
-- IR Command URLs
          property outside_lights_ON : "http://..."
          property outside_lights_OFF : "http://..."
          on do_command(command_url)
          -- execute the url using cURL
                    set command_status to (do shell script "/usr/bin/curl -s -S " & command_url) as string
          -- the url (when opened in a web browser) displays 'success' or 'fail'
                    return command_status
          end do_command
end script
File 2: The script that calls the handlers in the library file
set arRedeye to load script (("Macintosh HD:Users:...:AR Redeye Class.scptd") as alias)
tell arRedeye to do_command("http://...")

If I may indulge you again, I've cleaned up the scripts according to your advice and made progress, but I am still receiving the following errors:
Applescript Error:
«script» doesn’t understand the do_command message. (see below for where it occurs)
I also get an error for referencing a property of the script object.
Might you provide some insight as to why this is occurring?
Still a little confused.
Thanks,
Mark

URGENT: Problems Loading files with SQL Loader into a BLOB column

Hi friends,
I read a lot about how to load files into blob columns, but I found errors that I can't solve.
I've read several notes in these forums, ine of them:
sql loader: loading external file into blob
and tried the solutions but without good results.
Here are some of my tests:
With this .ctl:
LOAD DATA
INFILE *
INTO TABLE mytable
REPLACE
FIELDS TERMINATED BY ','
number1 INTEGER EXTERNAL,
cad1 CHAR(250),
image1 LOBFILE(cad1) TERMINATED BY EOF
BEGINDATA
1153,/opt/oracle/appl/myapp/1.0.0/img/1153.JPG,
the error when I execute sqlldr is:
SQL*Loader-350: Syntax error at line 9.
Expecting "," or ")", found "LOBFILE".
image1 LOBFILE(cad1) TERMINATED BY EOF
^
What problem exists with LOBFILE ??
(mytable of course has number1 as a NUMBER, cad1 as VARCHAR2(250) and image1 as BLOB
I tried too with :
LOAD DATA
INFILE sample.dat
INTO TABLE mytable
FIELDS TERMINATED BY ','
(cad1 CHAR(3),
cad2 FILLER CHAR(30),
image1 BFILE(CONSTANT "/opt/oracle/appl/myapp/1.0.0/img/", cad2))
sample.dat is:
1153,1153.JPEG,
and error is:
SQL*Loader-350: Syntax error at line 6.
Expecting "," or ")", found "FILLER".
cad2 FILLER CHAR(30),
^
I tried too with a procedure, but without results...
Any idea about this error messages?
Thanks a lot.

> So you think that if one person put an "urgent" in the subject is screwing the problems of
other people?
Absolutely. As you are telling them "My posting is more important than yours and deserve faster attention and resolution than yours!".
So what could a typical response be? Someone telling you that his posting is more important by using the phrase "VERY URGENT!". And the next poster may decide that, no, his problem is evern more import - and use "EXTREMELY URGENT!!" as the subject. And the next one then raises the stakes by claiming his problem is "CODE RED! CRITICAL. DEFCON 4. URGENT!!!!".
Stupid, isn't it? As stupid as your instance that there is nothing wrong with your pitiful clamoring for attention to your problem by saying it is urgent.
What does the RFC's say about a meaningful title/subject in a public forum? I trust that you know what a RFC is? After all, you claim to have used public forums on the Internet for some years now..
The RFC on "public forums" is called The Usenet Article Format. This is what it has to say about the SUBJECT of a public posting:
=
The "Subject" line (formerly "Title") tells what the message is about. It should be suggestive enough of the contents of the message to enable a reader to make a decision whether to read the message based on the subject alone. If the message is submitted in response to another message (e.g., is a follow-up) the default subject should begin with the four characters "Re: ", and the "References" line is required. For follow-ups, the use of the "Summary" line is encouraged.
=
([url http://www.cs.tut.fi/~jkorpela/rfc/1036.html]RFC 1036, the Usenet article format)
Or how about [url http://www.cs.tut.fi/~jkorpela/usenet/dont.html]The seven don'ts of Usenet?
Point 7 of the Don'ts:
Don't try to catch attention by typing something foolish like "PLEASE HELP ME!!!! URGENT!!! I NEED YOUR HELP!!!" into the Subject line. Instead, type something informative (using normal mixed case!) that describes the subject matter.
Please tell me that you are not too thick to understand the basic principles of netiquette, or to argue with the RFCs that governs the very fabric of the Internet.
As for when I have an "urgent" problem? In my "real" work? I take it up with Oracle Support on Metalink by filing an iTAR/SR. As any non-idiot should do with a real-life Oracle crisis problem.
I do not barge into a public forum like you do, jump up and down, and demand quick attention by claiming that my problem is more important and more urgent and more deserving of attention that other people's problem in the very same forum.

Problem in loading large data to SDE using Shp2sde command

Hi,
When we try load data to SDE (Oracle 8.1.5, Sun solaris 2.6)using shp2sde command, we get the following error message and the data is loaded partially:-
" SDE: Shape #2560 is an invalid entity type for layer station.
3337 features converted
3337 features stored "
The shape file had 4352 features of type point.
If the same data is splitted into 2 (one having 1906 features and another having 2446 features), there is no problem in loading.
The giomgr.log file had the following lines corresponding to this
loading.
Process 9512, R/T calls 14, features read 0, wrote 3337, locks 0,
buffers 1, partial 0, buffered features 3337, buffered data 555K
We suspect this is due some size specified somewhere which limits
loading of all the data. So our DBA granted SDE user quota unlimited to SDE tablespace. After the granting, everything works fine, we can load the data. But when we restart the server, the same error appear again.
We are encountering this error in production but not in the devt environment. We urgently need to solve this problem. Anyone has solution to this problem?
Thanks.

My commit interval is 1000. Even if I reduce the commit to 500, the result is still the same.
I was wandering is there anywhere where Oracle limit the size of the loading? or Kernel.. etc

Beginner Has Problem With Loading JDBC Driver Using MySQL

Hi, I am having problem with loading JDBC driver, and need your diagnotic help.
1. I have installed MySQL (C:\mysql), created a databse (soup), and created a littel table (VIDEOS). I am able to see the table in the console:
sql> select * from videos
2. I have downloaded the latest version of Connector/J (mysql-connector-java-3.1.0-alpha.zip), and unzip the zip file into my C:\ directory.
3. I copied the mysql-connector-java-3.1.0-alpha-bin.jar to the C:\j2sdk1.4.1_02\jre\lib\ext folder and it is in my CLASSPATH
4. MySQL server is running
C:\> C:\mysql\bin\mysqld-nt --standalone
5. open another DOS window and use the database
mysql>USE SOUP
6. succesfully compiled a Java program (javac Test.java):
import java.sql.* ;
public class Test
public static void main( String[] args )
try
Class.forName("org.gjt.mm.mysql.Driver").newInstance();
try
Connection con = DriverManager.getConnection( "jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/soup" );
try
Statement statement = con.createStatement();
ResultSet rs = statement.executeQuery("SELECT TITLE FROM VIDEOS");
while ( rs.next() )
System.out.println( rs.getString( "TITLE" ) );
rs.close();
statement.close();
catch ( SQLException e )
System.out.println( "JDBC error: " + e );
finally
con.close();
catch( SQLException e )
System.out.println( "could not get JDBC connection: " + e );
catch( Exception e )
System.out.println( "could not load JDBC driver: " + e );
7. when I run the Java program (java Test), I got
the message:
could not load JDBC driver: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.gjt.mm.mysql.Driver
What am I missing?

Hi,
I missed to specify test in my last post.
Try running your program by explicitly setting the classspath when
running your program . java -classpath c:\mysql-connector-java-3.1.0-alpha-bin.jar test
Make sure your jar file contains org.gjt.mm.mysql.Driver class

Problem using SQL Loader with ODI

Hi,
I am having problems using SQL Loader with ODI. I am trying to fill an oracle table with data from a txt file. At first I had used "File to SQL" LKM, but due to the size of the source txt file (700MB), I decided to use "File to Oracle (SQLLDR)" LKM.
The error that appears in myFile.txt.log is: "SQL*Loader-101: Invalid argument for username/password"
I think that the problem could be in the definition of the data server (Physical architecutre in topology), because I have left blank Host, user and password.
Is this the problem? What host and user should I use? With "File to SQL" works fine living this blank, but takes to much time.
Thanks in advance

I tried to use your code, but I couldn´t make it work (I don´t know Jython). I think the problem could be with the use of quotes
Here is what I wrote:
import os
retVal = os.system(r'sqlldr control=E:\Public\TXTODI\PROFITA2/Profita2Final.txt.ctl log=E:\Public\TXTODI\PROFITA2/Profita2Final.txt.log userid=MYUSER/myPassword @ mySID')
if retVal == 1 or retVal > 2:
raise 'SQLLDR failed. Please check the for details '
And the error message is:
org.apache.bsf.BSFException: exception from Jython:
Traceback (innermost last):
File "<string>", line 5, in ?
SQLLDR failed. Please check the for details

Yes, this is a run-time error. Currently I am debugging it by checking SNP_SESS_TXT_LOG based on sess_no ID.
Now, I get the following error.
I just see the following in the operator:-

911 : 42000 : java.sql.SQLException: ORA-00911: invalid character

So, I do not get any idea of the exact step that is causing failure.
Is there any setting in the operator that I am missing on?

Hi I just updated from Snow Leopard to Mountain Lion. I write DVD's using Final Cut Pro, creating a DVD that plays HD and Standard Definition on one disk. My problem is when I used load the disk on my G5 it would ask if you want High Definition or Standar

Hi I just updated from Snow Leopard to Mountain Lion.
I write DVD's using Final Cut Pro, creating a DVD that plays HD and Standard Definition on one disk.
My problem is when I used load the disk on my G5 it would ask if you want High Definition or Standard Definition, now it just defaults to Standard Definition.(I'm using Apple's DVD Player)
Can I fix this problem?

Addendum: I read on a post here (http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=420169) about removing some kext files in order to trick OSX into thinking that there were no FireWire ports.
I followed the instructions and removed from /System/Library/Extensions/ the following files:
IOFireWireSerialBusProtocolTransport.kext
IOFireWireAVC.kext
IOFireWireFamily.kext
IOFireWireIP.kext
IOFireWireSBP2.kext
I restarted and BAM...Snow Leopard booted crazy fast and the mouse and keyboard worked instantly.
The System Profiler says "No FireWire ports were found."
So this tells me that the FW port is probably the culprit and is messing up the installation.
So how do I hack the Mountain Lion installer and tell it to ignore the FW port, which is obviously quite dead? Or is there something I can do to the Base system that is similar?
