We have an issue regarding groups and files not being found by our application that are written on a share.
Our company wants to have a certain paper form signed digitally, our solution to this question is to make our application running on Oracle Forms mail these digital forms. We got it working in our test environment but not our production environment. We have our Oracle Report writer write the filled in form as an PDF to a directory on our application server, this is a nfs share hosted by our IT collegue's. Our database server then reads the mounted share and sends the PDF as an attachment per mail. This all happens from a database trigger which is copy/pasted over to production.
In our production environment we get the Report writer to write the PDF in the shared directory but then our database server generates an error log message saying the server can not find the file. I notice that the test environment writes down the PDF file as user:group and the production environment as user:1000, I have a feeling this is causing the database server to not find the file.
It is an Oracle Linux machine running Database 12.2 and Forms/Reports 12.2
Test:
Report Writer on App server 1 writes 1.pdf > /dir/test/share
Database server 1 reads 1.pdf from /dir/test/share
Production:
Report Writer on App server 2 writes 2.pdf > /dir/prod/share
Database server 2 reads 2.pdf from /dir/prod/share > cannot find 2.pdf
Group id changes to "1000"
directory shared group
Does anyone have an idea what this might be, this has to go live very soon but I am out of ideas.
Any help would be greatly apprieciated!
Best regards,

I am working on remotely on client system. I don't have knowledge on lotus notes.
There are some automated job executed in database which read the text file from share folder and store the information in lotus notes database. And another automated process generated report with that information.
Problem:
I have no idea which automated job are executed and also i checked in database but i didn't get anything. Can some please help here where i have to check or any other way to resolve this problem.
The way I would start looking for this is by using the Design Synopsis feature to generate a listing of all agents in the NSF file for the application. You can search that listing for the name of the folder. If you find a hit, backtrack a bit in the listing to find the name of the agent.
The thing is, this job could be running as an agent in any database, not just the one where the data resides. (I have often designed systems with "Agent Container" databases.) The job could also be running on an ETL server somewhere else on the network, or it could be running as a script launched by the operating system's scheduler elsewhere on the network. Hopefully, it's not one of those things, but even if it is in an agent in the target NSF file, you still might not find the folder name. The agent could be reading the folder name from a profile document in the NSF file, or from a configuration document in some other NSF file.
But that's where I'd start.
I am using advanced installer (simple) to create the setup project of a GUI i am making in visual studio. upon installation, it is possible to read data from the databse i.e the records that are already added can be read but as i try to save data in databse that function is not working and the application stops working. i think that the connection string is right that is why iam able to read data from it but why cant i update data. plz help.
the databse is is service-based local database
This might happen if you have the database stored in the same install location as your application binaries. Usually that is a folder under Program Files.
You're application cannot write under this location when running as a standard user, and it should never write/store data in that location.
If you're not using the Application Data folder to store your database, I suggest you update your app to do so, this should solve your problem.
I created neo4j database using cypher queries through browser and some python (py2neo) routines.
Now, I have to transfer this database to another neo4j instance on my Linux desktop.
What I did-
Zip the contents of folder default.graphdb.
Unzipped the contents of the zip file to data/graph.db in my linux installation.
Also the user:pass of the database are same.
But when I goto the browser, I can't find any of that data. The directory does point to the folder that I extracted to (/home/goelakash/neo4j-community-2.3.0/data/graph.db).
How do I get that database?
EDIT - messages.log
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B3JPglmAz1b5ak1vRWR5Z0p5UVE/view?usp=sharing
The data files should be located directly in data/graph.db. So check e.g. if there is a file called neostore.nodestore.db. If so, check the permissions - the system user running Neo4j needs to have full recursive read/write permission on the graph.db folder.
Also make sure that you're using the same version of Neo4j on Windows and Linux (or upgrade the store following the reference manual).
For more insight attach the startup sequence form data/graph.db/messages.log.
I am creating a Windows 10 Universal App which uses a local SQLite Database.
In order for the app to use the database file It must be placed in:
C:\Users\<Username>\AppData\Local\Packages\<Name of Package>\Local State
Now I understand this is the 'local' file structure for the application. However I have a pre-made database that the app needs to interact with and therefore should be bundled as part of the app on install.
Is there a method of including my database in a usable fashion when distributing my application via a side-load install?
Furthermore, This problem is of paramount importance as This 'C:\' Directory will not exist when pushing my application to the mobile phone or other Windows 10 (not a desktop) device.
You cannot package the database directly as read-write data (local state). If you only ever need to read from the database, you can just include it in your project and read it from Package.Current.InstalledLocation.
If you need to write to the database, but it contains some initial values you want to ship with your app, then you still need to include the database in your project, but then copy it from the InstalledLocation to ApplicationData.Current.LocalFolder if it doesn't exist when your app starts up.
You can all ways export your existing data base as SQL script and save it in your project assets.
On the first run of your application you can create the Sqlite file in your LocalFolder, and run the script with CREATE and INSERT queries.
I need to Retirve the following Details using Sybase SQL Query.
1) Database Data File Path
2) Database Transaction Log File Path
3) Path where SybaseSoftware Installed
4) Patch Installed on Sybase
Thanks.
That info is easy for a DBA to obtain in 30 seconds; with a GUI Admin tool in a few clicks.
Why do you want to obtain the details of the server installation VIA SQL ? If you are a coder you do not need that info to do your job; that info is the domain of the DBA, and changes as they administer the server. More important, the changes are transparent to the coder. Even if you did know it, it will not help or hinder you in your work.
Online Sybase Manuals
The "data and log file paths" in particular, are protected from direct access by developers (it is a secured ANSI SQL RDBMS).
Update
Evidently you did not bother to look up the manuals.
Open a session with the server, so that you can execute SQL commnands via "Sybase SQL Query". From your PC, Run either isql (character) or DBISQL (GUI); they are both on the Sybase PC Installation CD, you can also download them free.
Devices ("Data File Paths"):
sp_helpdevice
go
There are many Databases per server. There are many Devices per server. You will have to figure out (a) which Devices contain the Database you are interested in (b) Data Devices vs Log Devices.
sp_helpdb
go
Log Devices ("Database Transaction Log File Path")
(same as (1) )
"Sybase Installation" or $HOME directory (on the server). There are two methods, the first is much easier:
via host system
.
Log into the host system of the server, as the sybase user
You are already located in the sybase $HOME directory
It is the installation directory
(the original installer may have created directory trees for each version or EBF ("patch level"), but that is easy to figure out using Unix/DOS commands)
.
via islq/DBISQL
.
sp_configure "configuration file"
go
.
This will give you the path to the configuration file. It is almost always, the file path to the $SYBASE or sybase>$HOME directory. You can move up or sideways in the directory tree, using Unix/DOS commands, and figure it out from there.
.
The version of the Sybase ASE is the only item from your list that is relevant to coders. It (including current EBF ("patch level") is obtained via:
SELECT ##VERSION
go
