Dynamic cursor in PL/SQL

Title: Dynamic cursor in PL/SQL





Hi gurus, 
I have to do a stored proc to compare the data of two tables in different schemas. I want to use a dynamic cursor and select the content of a table passed in argument. 

I saw in a document that I can work with REF CURSOR like this instance: 
schema_table := 'DIFF';
open schema_comp for
'select * from TABLE where table_name = :s' using schema_table;

It works with the WHERE clause, but I want to use the FROM clause. I tried the following, but it was unsuccessful: 
schema_table := 'TABLE_DIFF';
open schema_comp for
'select * from :s' using schema_table; 
Has anyone ever tried this? 


TIA

IAS-Apache and PHP

Title: IAS-Apache and PHP





Hi gurus, 
Has anyone tried to include a PHP module to Apache in IAS ?
Does Oracle support it? 
We have some PL/SQL applications (drive by OAS) that we need to migrate to IAS. We have some other new applications in PHP. Do we have to maintain two Apaches (one in IAS plus one for the PHP application) ?

TIA

Title: RE: init.ora





Hi Prasad,


When your issue STARTUP command in svrmgrl or sqlplus, Oracle will check the file called initSID.ora in the $ORACLE_HOME/dbs directory.

You could specify a initSID.ora file with this command : STARTUP PFILE=/PATH/initSID.ora

Hi gurus,


We work with OEM 2.1 client on PC and Sun stations and we wish to upgrade to OEM 2.2 (we have DBAs on Sun stations). 
I can't find OEM 2.2 client for Sun on the Sun Solaris 8.1.7 CD pack, I can only find it for Windows. Is it just me or does Oracle not release a client version for Sun?

Hi 
Shahid,

Did 
you specify a PFILE parameter in your startup ?
If 
not, on NT, the default location for the parameter file is 
ORACLE_HOME\database. Your database is using the file in this 
location.

  Hi all, I have two parameter files in 
  two different directories on the same machine. Is there a way I can find out 
  which parameter file is being used by the database.
  One way I tried was to make the changes in one file and see if 
  it takes effect when the database is restarted. but I have more than 52 
  machines and it will be time consuming to do the same for all machines 
  especially when these machines are on remote locations.

Question about LMT

Hi all,


I created a tablespace in LMT. I created all my datafiles with an extra 64 Kb for the bitmap index.


My question is : If I want to resize my datafile, do I have to keep this extra 64 Kb ?


Example :  datafile size  = 500M + 64 Kb = 512064 Kb
  resize to 50M = 51200 or 51264 Kb

Hi

My 
question is only for the extra 64 Kb. When we created datafiles, we added 
64 Kb for the last extend (becausebitmap index need only 64

Is it 
important to keep this extra 64 Kb when we want to resize the 
datafiles.

  Hi 
  Luc,
  
  If you try to resize 
  a datafile to a size below that of the actual data it contains, Oracle will 
  warn you. Try setting Autoextend on if you're worried about running out of 
  space on a recently shrunk file; looking at your numbers I'm guessing that you 
  have plenty of space on the disk. As long as you keep an eye on the datafile 
  size, it will be fine.
  
  Cheers,

The java_pool_size is use want you work with the JServer. Do you have a Java stored proc, EJB or CORBA in your DB ? If not, you don't need the java_pool_size.

You could set it to 0. The default is 1m.

The command 'alter database backup controlfile to trace' will dump the control file content on a text file with all the SQL command to recreate it. You gonna find your text file (.trc) in your USER_DUMP_DEST directory.

To test it, you can do this :
1- execute the 'alter database backup controlfile to trace' command
2- remore all lines from the top of the file until STARTUP NOMOUNT
3- shutdown your database
4- delete your control files
5- execute your script

What situation would make you choose a certain value (i.e.: using '3' versus '4.5')?

Objet: Re: sort_area_size + temp tablespace extent sizing



The extent size of the temp tablespace should be a
multiple of the sort_area_size parameter + 1 block.


If your sort_area_size is 128K and if you need to go
to temp tablespace that means that 128K is not enough
so you should allocate for more than 128K.


temp extent = (sort_area_size*n)+ 1 block
 where n goes from 2 to usually 4,5
 depending on your situation




--- Adrian Roe [EMAIL PROTECTED] a écrit : 
Hi List,
 
 Quick question regarding temp tablespace extent
 sizing.
 
 I have always assumed that the extent size for a
 temporary tablespace needs
 to be equal to the size that sort_area_size is set
 to. A sort that can't fit
 into memory then goes and grabs temp tablespace
 extents of a size equal to
 sort_area_size. However, I have read somewhere that
 the extent size should
 be equal to sort_area_size + block size (the block
 being used for header
 infomation or something like that) eg. 8k block size
 and 64k sort area size
 results in 72K temp tablespace extent size.
 
 So, assume I have a sort area size of 128K and block
 size of 8k, do I need
 to set temp tablespace extent sizes to 128K or 136K,
 or doesn't it really
 matter.
 
 Thanks,
 
 Ade

Hi gurus,


I installed 9IAS on a Unix server. I installed all Oracle products with the Unix user ORACLE and its primary group OINSTALL.

My installation is done, but I want to manage my IAS with another user called IAS and primary group DBA.


My problem is :
Everything (logs, httpd.pid) belong to Unix user ORACLE (OINSTALL). I can't manage 9IAS with another user.


For those of you working with IAS, do you manage it using Oracle user ? Or have you changed the file permissions ?
Or reinstall with ORACLE user and group DBA. ?
