In PL/SQL Plus, i can enable/disable auditing when i connect as sysdba by using these command:
SQL> ALTER SYSTEM SET audit_trail=db SCOPE=SPFILE
SQL> shutdown
SQL> startup
I've done it successfully with PL/SQL Plus command line. But in PHP, how can i do that?How to execute "shutdown" and "startup" from PHP?
I've found this code for connect to oracle as sysdba:
once i query SQL> SELECT username, extended_timestamp, owner, obj_name, action_name FROM dba_audit_trail WHERE owner = <Username>
there are many many rows , my question is , are you enable to truncate it from time to time , if not ,is it effect on the performance of the database ?
how to disable and enable all constraints pertaining to one table at once. I want to disable them at once and also enable them at once. I make use of TOAD.
I have one tabular block on the canvas and there is one check box on this block. I want that when I uncheck this checkbox, one item on the current record gets disabled.
i manage to turn all the records enabled or disabled.
I am attaching a dummy form in which I have tried. Checkbox is acting on field :ecc_no.
The DB table for the same is:
CREATE TABLE ECC_MASTER ( PARTY_TYPE CHAR(1 BYTE) NOT NULL, PARTY_CODE CHAR(5 BYTE) NOT NULL, ECC_NO VARCHAR2(25 BYTE) NOT NULL, RANGE_DIVISION VARCHAR2(30 BYTE), EMP_NO NUMBER(4) NOT NULL,
I have a master-detail form showing multiple records (tabular) in data-block. Now my problem is, based on certain column's value of a particular item in a particular row on the data-block to ENABLE/DISABLE during run-time .
For example, in a detail-block of 5 rows, if 3rd row's 'detail-block.item1' is equal to lets say, "X", then 'detail-block.item2' of that particular row ONLY must be 'disabled'. otherwise, it must 'enable' the 'detail-block.item2' of that particular item in that particular row on the data-block.
Even when, I query the form, it must enable/disable that particular item of that particular row from the data-block based on item1's value.
I am using oracle 10g. Is there any mechanism to / parameter to enable or disable archive log mode? can I enable arching directly from pfile without touching the startup process?
How do we need to enable or disable the keyboard shortcuts in Oracle Apps like Shift+F6 for duplicate record, also how do I change the functionality, I mean suppose I want Key-M to do the same function as shift+F6.
I have a Select list which when null should disable a button and when not null should enable it. For which I tried the Advanced DA. Strangely, in the final page where we select the item that is going to be controlled, the button is not listed! I can see other display items etc which I can select but not the button.
I have a database in which DB extended auditing is enabled but there are no audit specifications in privileges or statements or objects. So what will be audited in that case.
I have enabled auditing in my oracle9i DB, it is running fine, generating trails and I can capture those. Recently I checked in dba_audit_session table and found os_username, userhost, terminal showing null value whereas username is captured as my own (having dba prvis). Strange thing is that it doesn't occurs everyday.
One of the possibility of running batch files may occurs such issues, but I ran this batch everyday then why it is occurring some days only.

I'm working on a Java-based web application and we have unit tests that we use to test all our all code that interacts with the database or code that interacts with our DB code. The Spring framework allows us to perform some DML within a transaction before each test and then rollback the changes. For the most part, this works, however when I run the full suite of unit tests, it will randomly commit data to the database causing the rest of the tests to fail.
will Oracle's auditing let me see where this odd-ball commit is occurring? Is there another way for me to see when data is being committed?
This does not appear to be happening on any of the systems we've deployed, however this is a bit unsettling and would like to know why this is occurring so that we can prevent it from happening in production.
I am trying to maintain data audit in the database using triggers where i want to write the row level trigger in an generic way using the following concept .Using USER_TAB_COLUMNS table inside the trigger i want to bind all column values of the row into a single string in the following format
COLUMN_NAME = Value(:new/:old.COLUMN_NAME)=> this value would be bound dynamically is it possible to create a string for each row instance in the trigger at run time using the above mentioned format and user_tab_column table
I would like to be aware of all select statements that are run against the schema I am responsible for (for performance analysis reasons) My privileges are restricted and I think I won't get access to any dba views.
So is there a recomondation how I can solve this requirement?
I'd like to audit a table for any SELECT queries that are executed against it with no WHERE clause. I've read the documentation on DBMS_FGA carefully, and as close as I can tell, creating a policy with a NULL audit_condition causes all queries against the table to be audited, which isn't what I'm looking for.
I'm attempting to audit unsuccessful Select statements in order to trap a problem we're experiencing with our application. I have set the AUDIT_TRAIL initialization parameter to DB_EXTENDED, and bounced our database.
I've issued the AUDIT SELECT ANY TABLE WHENEVER NOT SUCCESSFUL command, and when I issue a SELECT statement as an application user, nothing appears in SYS.AUD$ even though the application has issued a select statement which returned no rows.
I have a problem with a PCI DSS - requirement in Oracle 11.2. (PCI DSS = Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard)
Problem:
we connect via ' ssh -2 -X -l oracle hostname ' to the databaseserver and become os-user 'oracle'. we have also two offshore locations with dba's and each dba comes with his personalized user to the jumphost and then with the above ssh command to the database server.
the problem is that each dba becomes the oracle-os-account and can now connect with '/ as sysdba' to the database.in pci-dss this is not allowed !
now my question:how can I audit these '/ as sysdba'-connections and prove which user connected at which time with the '/ as sysdba' command ?
database is in audit mode. we log to syslog on linus redhat 5. I know one solution could be setting "SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICES" parameter to "NONE" in sqlnet.ora file will make it not possible to connect to the database without a password as sysdba. (sqlplus / as sysdba). but we have to many applications and jobs and this is not really the solution in this case.
I think I can only solve this problem with personalized OS-user DBA-accounts in the dba-goup on os-site and os-user oracle should not be used for the future ?? I also need personalized dba-user-accounts in the database. using sys and system is not allowed. this users has to be locked and only for special administration work could it be unlocked.
It seems that dml trigger doesn't fire when lob field is being updated using dbms_lob package.
As it stated in Oracle documentation:
QUOTE Using OCI functions or the DBMS_LOB package to update LOB values or LOB attributes of object columns does not cause Oracle to fire triggers defined on the table containing the columns or the attributes.
I need to know that table was updated (or is about to be updated), how can I do that in case it is lob field that is being updated?

I have enabled Auditing but when i run the below given statement i get the output with count of 20 null username.I tried to run NOAUDIT ALL but still the same result.
Why does it show auditing for null username and how can i disable it.
select count(*) from DBA_STMT_AUDIT_OPTS where user_name is null; 20
