We just migrated our technology platform on one of the six servers yesterday on production d/b as follows :
OAS Server - Linux Patch Applied (2.6.18-53.el5 #1 SMP Wed Oct 10 16:34:19 EDT 2007 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux)
D/B Server - From Oracle 10.2.0.2.0 to Oracle 10.2.0.4.0
Batch Server - From OpenVMS to Red Hat Linux
Post Migration, we are facing some issues with Oracle Forms 10g, Text Items which contains one or more than one multibyte characters, is displaying only # character in the entire text box instead of what is stored in the database. In other words, information in the database is stored correctly. Before Migration everything was working perfectly fine.
One other thing which I would like to tell here is that we compile forms using the following environment settings:
My application spools the data from database into file and file is fixed length. My application working fine when database has single byte characters. But I am getting fields postion misposition and length mismatch in spooled line when data base has Multi byte characters(ê).
I want to convert the multi byte characters into single byte while spooling the data( ê ==> e)
The below query has converted the multi byte to single byte character. But actual value is modified into lower case.
#################################################### select utl_raw.cast_to_varchar2((nlssort(c.Name,'nls_sort=binary_ai'))) sbyte, '|' c.Name from EMP c
how do we know database character set is either single character set or multi character set?
While changing character-set from AL32UTF8 to WE8MSWIN1252 got "ORA-12712: new character set must be a superset of old character set".
Below are steps taken to resolve the issue -
ALTER DATABASE CHARACTER SET WE8MSWIN1252;
i got this error: ORA-12712: new character set must be a superset of old character set
below are the commands executed by me:
SQL> SHUTDOWN IMMEDIATE; SQL> CONNECT SYS/password AS SYSDBA; SQL> STARTUP MOUNT; SQL> ALTER SYSTEM ENABLE RESTRICTED SESSION; SQL> ALTER DATABASE OPEN; SQL> ALTER DATABASE CHARACTER SET INTERNAL_USE WE8MSWIN1252; SQL> SHUTDOWN; SQL> STARTUP; SQL> QUIT;
And its working...
I have not done it in proper order. Neither have done ccsscan. Still, no user reported any issues. Do my changes truncated the data?
We have migrated the database from Oracle 10.1.0.3 to 10.2.0.5 by using conventional export and import. (OS - HP.Uinx).,After the migration some characters (like é or à or è) have not been migrated correctly.
how to validate this characters after migration?
Note:
All NLS parameters are same in both source and target database
I have an issue with the oracle forms trigger. This is the scenario. The form is a query only form . A user can only query on this form . No update or insert is allowed.
The base table say TABLE1 consists of these fields. 1) pro id, pro item, empno , fname, lname, deptno .
The user can query on all items except the fname and lname.
The issue is few records in the TABLE1 have null values for the empno.
When the user queries on proid, pro item , empno or deptno - when the empno on TABLE1 is not NULL , the fname and lname should be fetched from a different table say TABLE2. otherwise, if the empno on TABLE1 is null , the fname and lname from the same table i.e, TABLE1 are retrieved. I have tried with the post change trigger on empno . Also tried the When validate item trigger . But it doesnt work the way it is expected to. what is the appropriate trigger that must be used.
I create a master detail form. I created also a post quey trigger, inside I wrote the code below.A cursor looks to another table and returns to the form some values i need!
declare cursor C1 is select apofaa, startdate, enddate, transport from trapofdet where trapofdet.apofcode = :trapof.apofcode; [code]....
How to solve the
a. frm-40737, illegal restricted procedure go block in post-query trigger b. It seems tha returns all the records but it appears only the last one.
I have been testing out a form using 10.1.2.0.2 on a v10.2.0.1 db and in my local env. the form works correctly i.e. if I make a change and 'post' it and then exit and press NO (when asked to save changes) then it correctly leaves the value in the database as it originally was.
The process works by the user pressing a button in form A (read only form) and this opens form B (using open_mode,session,activate) and the user makes their change(s) in form B (a 'post' command is issued in a When New Rec Inst trigger on a db block when the user navigates to a new record within the same block if it is determined that the block status <> 'QUERY') before returning to form A and pressing 'NO' when prompted to save changes.
However, if I run the same process in the TEST env. using the same executable against the same database then it actually updates the database value.
I have tested this by adding a debug message at the end of form B to retrieve the db value back AFTER having issued a clear_form(no_commit) just for the sake of the test and it still returns me the 'new' i.e. amended value - which is obviously incorrect. From what I can see it would appear that the commit occurs straight after the 'post' has been issued and well before the user even exits the form.
Is this a known bug with the 'post' built-in or could it be that a parameter is set to act in this way (i.e. is there an 'autocommit' setting that is 'ON') within the application server?
IF :item1 IS NULL AND :item3 IS NOT NULL THEN alert_id := FIND_ALERT('blank_alert'); SET_ALERT_PROPERTY(alert_id,ALERT_MESSAGE_TEXT,'Item3 must have a value.'); v_alert := SHOW_ALERT(alert_id); RAISE Form_trigger_Failure; END IF;
My problem was as it fires, the cursor will be on the item1. I've already use
SET_ITEM_INSTANCE_PROPERTY NEXT_ITEM GO_ITEM
but it was all illegal. The cursor must be in the item3.
Don't question me why I do not set the item3 to required and why post triggers. It is just that. It is the requirement.
i m using oracle 10g forms. in one form i m using post keyword when i use this function then records saved in temporary database but i want to remove one record from this form but it is allrady saved through post.
I have a multi record block based on a view. All records in the view are displayed in the block by use of Post-Query trigger when entering the form.
The block has 5 items as follows:
1) RECORD_STATUS = a non-base table column which is a checkbox. 2) ITEM_TYPE = a text-item which has an LOV attached. 3) ITEM_TEXT = a text-item which is free format text. 4) LAST_UPDATE_DATE a date column 5) STATUS = a text item either 'Open' or 'Closed'
The LOV is based on a table of Item Types with values say, 'Type1', upto 'Type9'.
I have a Wnen-New-Record-Instance trigger which 'Posts' changes to the database. This has been included as i want to limit the values of the ITEM_TYPE column to values which have not been previously used.
Consider this scenario...
The block has 3 records.
record 1 has 'Closed' status so no updates are allowed. record 2 has 'Open' status so updating of Item_Text is allowed. record 3 has 'Open' status so updating of Item_Text is allowed.
I check the RECORD_STATUS checkbox on record2.
(This sets the RECORD_STATUS checkbox to a checked value and changes the STATUS column to 'Closed' by When-Checkbox-Changed trigger.) At this point the record has not been saved so if you uncheck the checkbox , then the STATUS column will go back to 'Open'. However at this point i will leave it as Checked (Closed).
I then insert a new record, only values Item4 to Item 9 are correctly shown in the LOV. I select Item4.
I then go back to the previous record and uncheck the Checkbox to say that i wish to leave it 'Open' after all (in effect no changes have occurred), then the STATUS column correctly reverts back to 'Open' by my WCC trigger. If i then SAVE the changes, the new record has been inserted on the database correctly, however the LAST_UPDATED_DATE from the record which was checked and then unchecked has also been updated incorrectly even though no net changes have actually occurred.
(because i am using WNRI trigger to limit the List of Values on the LOV column, this has incorrectly set the previous records LAST_UPDATED_DATE column to be Sysdate.)
I have a form which will call another and do some transactions and come back to original form and do other processes. save if successful. or roll back with error message.i m doing POST when i exit from the called form. and continue process in calling form. if any error, i m raising an error message with rollback.
But sometimes, it is getting committed with that error trn. especially in new database, first time try the scenario, it any error comes then getting commited.I m not able to find where the commit is happening? if any other sessions commit will affect this trn?
I have a form w/a tab canvas. BlkA is on Tab1 and Blk2 is on Tab2. In BlkA I have several items that have when-validate-item triggers. However, the trigger does not fire when I enter a value into item1 of BlkA followed by clicking on Tab2. To solve, I placed validate(form_scope) in the When-Tab-Page-Changed trigger. This works well with invoking the validation. However, focus remains on Tab2 (Blk2).
I would like focus to return to failed validation item in Blk1. I can capture the block name using :system.cursor_block in the Post-Block trigger of BlkA, assign that value to a form parameter and when a validation fails via the When-Tab-Page-Changed trigger I can return user back to BlkA(Tab1). However, I need direction on how to return user to the specific item in BlkA that failed validation
I have in the same form display item that its value will be sitting according to the post trigger of the previous text field when i press the sort button i get frm-40735 post-text-item unhandled exception Ora-01403 error.
I am working on form 10g, here i am using post command in save procedure to apply some record in database temporary.
But Frm-40404 Message raise during saving record i need post commond but i dont want to this message should popup, is there any method to avoid the message only?
I have oracle 10g database running on Sun Solaris. My database character set is AL32UTF8. Our user wants to store a double byte character and an image, I want to know what the column type should be using for these.
I have a multi tab form. When I open any form; the form no. and form lists are automatically uploaded. I can enter the rest of the data and save the form. The problem is; if I try to open another tab(form), system did not allow it and ask to enter data in the already open form fields. I can only save the form, which I open first.
BLOCK1 is a multi record block with a field, FIELD_A BLOCK2 is a multi record block with fields FIELD_B,FIELD_C,FIELD_D
i have a button on BLOCK1 called 'FETCH'.
The requirement is when_button_pressed on 'FETCH'. BLOCK2 must be populated for each record of BLOCK1. Population logic is based on, values from a database table TABLE_A which has got column values corresponding to all fields of BLOCK1 and BLOCK2.
I have a multi row datablock with scroll bar. In each record I have a checkbox (let's call it check_record), and above these checkboxes, there is a checkbox to check/uncheck all the checkboxes (let's call it check_all).
If all the "check_record" are checked, the "check_all" must be automatically checked, else if one "check_record" is not checked, it will be unchecked.
To do that, I have put a loop in the WHEN-CHECKBOX-CHANGED of "check_record" to loop over all the "check_record" and see if they are checked or not.
Normally, this loop will automatically go to last record. But to go back to the selected record (where the "check_record" was clicked), I have used go_record with the record ID.
==> No problem in that, it's working fine.
Now, this is my problem: When clicking on a "check_record", the scroll bar moves to show the selected row in the first (or last) VISIBLE row in the data block, and that's because of using "GO_RECORD(<CURRENT_RECORD>)".
Example: if I select the third record in the data block, the scroll bar moves to show it in the first visible row.
Is there a way to "freeze" the scroll bar and keep the record in its initial position in the data block?
I am doing simple project, where i need to check date(form which we give in run time) with database column date.problem i have written the code for program now i found that select statement is return multi rows.
I have a master detail form and in the detail block when i am scrolling up the records are getting disappeared , but actually they are not getting deleted, once if i requery the data will appear, what could be the problem.I am using the property change record for block.
I have a form with 3 blocks in our oracle application. Block1 is a single record block. Block2 and block 3 are multi record blocks with no of records 5. Block1 and block2 are in same canvas1 of a window1. Block3 is in canvas2 of window2. There is a relation between block1 and block2. Another relation with block2 and block3 is also available.
Now my issues is while creating a record, first i entered the data in block1 (which is a single record block). Then i entered data in five rows of second block. Then i entered data in block3(multi record block) by pressing the button in block2 (each button for each row). But before saving the entire form, when i checked the data in block3 by pressing the button of first record of block2, screen shows empty.
Code in button of block2 is as follows
show_window(WIN2'); Go_block('BLOCK3');
Code in button of block3 is as follows
hide_window('WIN2'); go_block('BLOCK2');
If post; is included in block3 button. then problem we will be solved. But we don't want to use post; as it lock the table.
