I have to pick a text file created in UNIX server directory and send it as an mail attachment.The problem here is, when the file size exceeding more than 10 MB. I think there is a way to zip a file in UNIX with some .gz extension or something like that.
how to zip a file in unix server using PL/SQL code. So that I will pick the zipped file and send it as an attachment.
I need to develop a form which has to read and display the contents of a text file that is stored in the Unix system where the Oracle data base is installed. So basically its the database server and not the forms application server.
1. Create an external table for the file everytime when the form is loaded by dropping and re creating the table and base the data block in the form on that table and execute_query and display the contents.
2. I am confused whether to use webutil or utlfile packages to read from the file and display on the screen as the file resides in the database or Oracle server and not forms application server or client machine.
I'm running a sql file in Unix (using SQLPLUS command) and i want the file output to be sent to local windows directory. I specified the windows directory name in my Spool command (Spool C:/<Directory Name> ) , But it is not working
Our Unix server is a FTP server but i don't want to FTP the spool file from unix to Windows as the spool file is Huge and it takes hours for the transfer to complete (and we have to run the script multiple times).
Is there a way i can have the spool file created in Local windows directory when i run my sql script in Unix?
I have a file which is placed on a certain location on unix server. I want to write a code which picks up that file and emails it to certain recipients.
I am using Oracle 9i and Unix on my system and trying to execute a UNIX shell command through external procedure in C.I created a shared lib (libextproc.so) for the following function.
int sysrun(char *command) { return system(command); }
This function runs fine when caled through a driver function in C, meaning that the shared lib is fine.In PL/SQL, I have used the following method to invoke a UNIX command:- create or replace library shell_lib as '/home/ECETRAonsite/oracle/OraHome1/lib/libextproc.so'; / create or replace function sysrun (syscomm in varchar2) return binary_integer as language C name "sysrun" library shell_lib parameters(syscomm string); /
Now when I call this PL/SQL function to invoke the command, it is run succesfully but does not create the file.
PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.I have verified that the path for 'touch' is correct.Following are my configuration files. listener.ora ------------- LISTENER = (DESCRIPTION_LIST = (DESCRIPTION =
I would like to develop a form which will be replica of windows explorer.It should be able to read all files or files from a specific folder from an unix platform.
if yes can i have a template. I do not want to start from the scratch since I do not have much time.
Am tring to export a data from oracle forms to excel. I use ole2 option. it is working perfectly in my desktop. But when i move the same to our application server, it is not working. I belive OLE is related to Microsoft office and our server is unix based.
I am trying to Push the data from Oracle which is running in HP-UNIX to SQL Server. But don't know the efficient way to connect the SQL server from oracle which is running on HP-UNIX.I have heard about oracle Heterogeneous Connectivity but don't know exactly how to implement it in Unix environment.
We have an application that fetches and writes data into oracle database through pro c. oracle datyabase is on another server.
We are storing some secure information into oracle database so we want to encrypt the data sent by our aplication into oracle database.We do not want to use SSL(i.e certificates) and also do not want to make use of Advance Security Option available in oracle and also do not want to make any changes in sqlnet.ora file on server side.
achieve encryption of traffic between our application and Oracle database?
We are using Oracle Applications hosed on UNIX servers. There is a custom form in XXX_TOP/forms/US folder that I need to modify.
My Windows desktop has Forms Builder 10g installed. I ft pied fmb file over from UNIX server to my Windows desktop and tried opening it. I get an error FRM-18108:
Failed to load the following objects: APPSTAND, etc etc.
Obviously I am not doing it right. What is the correct way of modifying a form file sitting on UNIX server, using Forms Builder installed on Windows desktop? Do I need to copy all dependent objects to Windows desktop along with fmb file?
i have two tablespaces dictionary managed (SYSTEM,APPLSYSX) i tried to change to locally cause it will cause problem in future when trying to run OATM migration.i did it successfully on APPLSYSX,when i did it on system upon oracle procedure.i have to change all tablespaces to read only when i did that with tablespace APPLSYSD(alter tablespace APPLSYSD read only) i received errors

I have a requirement to read flat text file(around 15000 lines) residing at a client location from DB server and write into a table in One cell.
I tried UTL_FILE and DBMS_LOB but, i am not able to access client location to read the file as it reads path from Oracle Directory.
eg. my client path is 198.168.1.1 and my DB server is in unix say 192.168.1.10. file location is: \192.168.1.1shareabc.txt So I created One Oracle directory as MY_DIR having DIRECTORY_PATH as '\192.168.1.1share'. But both UTL_FILE and DBMS_LOB is not able to access the file.
Error Message: ------------- Unable to process CLOB -22288 ~ ORA-22288: file or LOB operation FILEOPEN failed No such file or directory
Few Details for reference: ------------------------- File Location: \192.168.1.1shareabc.txt Unix DB Server location: 192.168.1.10 Table : Test (filename varchar2(30), Content CLOB) Oracle Dir: MYDIR Directory_Path: \192.168.1.1share
create or replace procedure log_file ( odsm_profile IN VARCHAR2 ) AS handle utl_file.file_type; begin

i have error when executing this pl/sql procedure in timesten in UNIX
this is the excution error:

I am trying to produce results in pivot format. I want to know how many entries per day per month. In other words how many entries on a Monday for each month, how many on a Tuesday for each month and so on.
The main problem I have is that the date column in the database uses UNIX time stamp. I have managed to get the results I want for a particular month. This code selects the entries for last month.
What I need is for another column at the start of the results to give the month so I end up with 12 rows, 1 for each month.
I did try to group by PENTERED(which is the unix time stamp column) select pentered, max(decode(pdayno, 1, cnt, null)) Sunday, max(decode(pdayno, 2, cnt, null)) Monday, max(decode(pdayno, 3, cnt, null)) Tuesday, max(decode(pdayno, 4, cnt, null)) Wednesday, [code]......
This gave me thousands of rows as each UNIX time stamp is unique. Is there a way of grouping on UNIX time stamp.
I'm trying to install Oracle 11gR2 RAC on AIX, do we need to turn on Multicasting, can we install without multicasting? Also can I have the ASM disk with external redundancy for OCR and Voting Disk?

I am passing a Date to the Oracle Procedure in `date +'%b_%d-%H:%M:%S'` format.
I'm on Oracle 11g R1. I've a requirement where user will be putting CSV files on Unix server and I've to create a job which runs periodically to check if any new file is added by user in the folder. If it finds a new file (s), then it needs to identify it and insert its name in an Oracle table. Once file's name is noted, it has to move file from that directory to another one.
working on setting up connection between a Windows 2008 server and a pair of Oracle 11g DBs in a RAC Cluster. One Database (let's say DatabaseA) is in one data center, and the other (DatabaseB) is an a secondary, backup database. The RAC Cluster is all set up, working fine, etc. However, I Need to set up the machine.config file on my Windows Server, to go only connect to DatabaseA, unless it fails, in which case, we want it to connect to DatabaseB. Think we could do this if the host app server was Linux/Unix, but it is windows, and I just don't have the background as to the parameters to set up in the machine.config file. They are similar, but different, and we want a very specific behavior (use DatabaseA, unless fails, then DatabaseB). Application is .NET 4.0 app.
I have a requirement where i need to execute a unix shell script "a.sh" having permissions user1,group1 and no access to public. This should be executed from Oracle function.
So i wrote a routine in Java and it works fine when i execute a command like Date etc.
But when i execute "a.sh" from oracle client, its returning error that "could not be executed-permission denied". This is because once login happened through the "sqlplus" the shell takes user as "oracle" and group as "dba" but the script "a.sh" having only permissions user1,group1. Unfortunately we are not allowed to change the permission for "a.sh" to give execute permission to all(public).
After searching in internet, i understand that one way is to make the password (/etc/passwd) for the user "user1" as no password and can use "su" command so that it wont ask password while invoking it.
Is there any other way apart from this doing changes in password file at UNIX level when executing a script from oracle client?
