Application Express :: How To Test File / URL Existence
Jun 18, 2012
I have a table with full path and name of a document or a URL.
Users can now open one of these documents by klicking on a link.
P:Document est.doc
or
URL....
Some times this document no longer exisits. How do I make sure the user gets a correct error message? URL....How do I make sure the user gets a correct error message?
Is there a way to make a button conditional on the existence of another app in the same workspace. What I am trying to do is have a MAIN app and several other MODULE apps in the same workspace. Then a button on a form in the MAIN app that will redirect to a specific page in one of the MODULE apps. If the MODULE app does not exist, meaning not installed, then the button would be invisible.
I created an report and made it accessible as Restfull server. When I checked the url, I got an XML back. So the service is working.
As test I wanted to create a webservice reference to that same page, but receive ORA-06502 PL/SQL: numeric or value error: hex to raw conversion error whenever I test the service. I tried all kind of options.
Settings: URL ........... HTTP MEthod : GET Parameters app page reportid (and even parmvalues, lang, output) outputformat : XML
When I test this service I receive above error. I use Apex 4.1
After upgrading to Apex 4.2 I'm now unable to test Report Queries. Each time I click on the Test Report button via Shared Components|Report Queries I recieve the following error message:
ORA-20001: The printing engine could not be reached because either the URL specified is incorrect or a proxy URL needs to be specified.
I still have Apex version 4.1 installed on a different server and it appears to be working fine.
What is the code/javascript/url behind the test report button on report queries component?
We are having DSN problems using the print url given on the report query. The URL works for some of our developers and not for others.
The test report button on the report query appears to work for everyone but I do not know what is behind the "Test Report" button. If I could recreate the test report button on our page this would be GREAT!
I'm looking for a solution to hyperlink to a local file (i.e. C:/test.txt). I want that the user clicks on a "browse file" button like the file browse item. after the user selected a file or just a folder the path should be shown in a display only item. this item should be clickable...
Is it possible to create a "Browse file" dialog? I know that to link to a file is possible with some HTML tags in the "pre element text" and "post element text" fields. something like "<a href="... but I don't know how this works.
I need to change "File Character" when I export application with Apex 4.2.1.00.08 version, but this option, is not possible. The ComboBox already select with
"Unicode UTF-8]', but I need "ISO-8859-1 - Europa Ocidental",
I have multibyte CSV files (extract from BI) : Excel says "Unicode txt" and when I save them from Excel in "Text CSV", they get half the size on the disk.
here is the piece of code where the uploaded file get converted from blob to clob then to varchar2 (CSV Util from Oleg.Lihvoinen [URL]...
SELECT blob_content INTO v_blob_data FROM wwv_flow_files WHERE NAME = p_file_name;
[code]...
I have tried different values for "blob_csid := 873 ;" (and by the way, the list of possible values for this code is very difficult to find : I know, there is a function CS_name to CS_ID but a list would be great), but without any visible effect.If I use the Apex CSV uploader app, the result is the same than with this code.
is an example : �O�R�A�C�L�E�
instead of : ORACLE
How I can have these files imported whithout an Excel conversion ?
I want to print a report using the apex, but it looks like you need to configure BI, Is there an easy way to print it online and not print the page, which is page report.
My application has several update-able forms. And I build a single staging table to store all these records.
The user wants a button on the last form and by clicking on this button they want to export the file(updated records from all the forms) in ASCII format.
if its do-able or not in apex since I haven't come across this kind of request earlier and didn't find the same in this forum?
I'm trying to upload a xml file into a table but I don't know which separator do I have to select to show the columns well. I does not recognize the columns.
In my apex application needs to import data files, through end users. The fields in this file are not separated by any character (structure is not classic CSV), but have a fixed width.
How to do?
Scenario 1:
import file to a temporary table with a blob column, create a trigger for this table via a PL / SQL code meet end table
I'm starting with APEX, I would like to know how to insert the contents of a file. Csv in a table, how to map a file to a table, how to insert file contents. Xls in a table.
I get an ERR-7621 from Apex whenever I do anything in an application the tries to read a file. For example importing images, css files, themes, or applications. Even the data loader app will get the error if you choose to load a "csv" file. The following appears in my Apex Listener Log (version 2 early adopter). I am running 4.1.1 of Apex and also have another server running the same where the problem does not exist. Following is the log output whenever the load occurs:
Sep 28, 2012 11:21:18 AM com.sun.grizzly.http.servlet.ServletAdapter doService SEVERE: service exception: java.lang.NumberFormatException: For input string: "" at java.lang.NumberFormatException.forInputString(NumberFormatException.java:48)
I would like to ask if is possible to translate the "Browse..." button of File Browse item.
For me it seems that the button cannot be translated to a different language. I have tried to export the XLIFF and there is no string like "Browse...", also I have tried to edit it manually in translation repository, but the string is not present here.
While I try to download a file using the below code; an HTTP 404 error is coming although the proc is being called and the parameter is correctly being passed.
create or replace procedure download_myfile1(p_id in number) as v_mime varchar2(255); v_length number;
[code]...
It shows a POP up window by which u can save or opens the file. But no pop up displayed in this case.
I want to upload file using restful service This is my code to send file to rest service
MultipartEntity reqEntity = new MultipartEntity(HttpMultipartMode.BROWSER_COMPATIBLE); FileBody bin = new FileBody(f); FormBodyPart bodypart = new FormBodyPart("file", bin); reqEntity.addPart(bodypart);
[code]...
But how can i retrive at server side in restful service using plsql?

I am using Glassfish Server v2.1.1 with APEX Listener v1.1.3.243.11.40...The Timeout parameters for JDBC settings in APEX Listener are default. Thus I would expect to abort earlier to be an issue of JDBC Connection?

I've just patched a development oracle environment (RAC 11GR2) with temporary patch 8730312. I would like to do same thing on Production RAC. Is it necessary to test all applications on dev environment with this kind of patch before deploy it on Production ?
Not able to understand what's wrong with the code. I am trying to import data to a table using a CSV file. I have exported the data (CSV) from the interactive report and I am just trying to insert the same data to the table, through a process. When, I tried to do so; its throwing an error message saying NO_DATA_FOUND and file is not getting inserted into wwv_flow_files table.
But when I removed the data from the CSV file for the comments field and then tried importing the file, the process worked. I don't understand whats the problem with the code.
I have a sample app setup in my workspace for this weird problem.
[URL]
Workspace details:
CSV file with comments field and data in it - when trying to import - throws an error message NO_DATA_FOUND
CSV file with comments field and without data in it - tried importing - this worked
I am using Oracle APEX 4.0. I want to create a tabular form with one column as File Browse field.I've created form using APEX_ITEM and file browse item using pure HTML tags as we do not have any such item in APEX_ITEM. So these fields are appearing now but how do I save uploaded files in APEX_APPLICATION_FILES and then in my table?
My configuration is APEX 4.2 on Windows XP with APEX Listnere on Glassfish 3.1.2 Open Source Server Edition. The database is 11G XE
Let me explain the scenario which is not working.A Modal region which is having a file browse item based on WWV_FLOW_FILES and a button called add file.
When I click on add file it display a blank page and in the URL I could see [URL]...But actually it inserted file in the table.
I have put wwv_flow* in Listener Configuration for allowed procedures.I have another page where I have a page item which is based on BLOB column specified in item source attribute. And that is inserting file and displaying the pages correctly.
When uploading a static text/javascript file (i.e. filename = 'thisFile.js') the file Mime Type defaults to 'application/octet-stream' (instead of 'text/javascript'). This issue occurs in I.E. 8 but not in Firefox.
