Had to find informal errata when there is no official errata

Some books seem to have quite a few typos still the errata is empty for them, as the RMAN recipes for pound of DB Oracle 11 g. When I go on the site Web of Apress is the list is empty. What worries me is that I already introduced some errors to the authors a few days ago, and yet the errata list remains empty (understandable because he needs time to publish or I maybe made a mistake). It just bothers me that there is no errata for such an excellent book with great explanations etc. I "m almost confident there are errors in this book yet there is no errata, usually the oracle community (US) is quick to submit such errors so the authors can publish quickly complete list.

Is there an unofficial errata for this book on another site? Or am I being too picky and paranoid?

If I knew what I know now, I would still by this book and read it from start to finish. :)

It seems that Apress has brought a correction on its Web site a month or two before (Note 3D images of books), and it seems that some of the errata already stated were not re-attached to the pages of the book (none of the books I checked showed associated errata).

From what I am able to determine, errata will not appear on the Apress page until a book author meets this errata. If the errata is correctly transmitted to the author, I think that the author determines whether the errata report is spam, a duplicate or a new errata report (and then has the opportunity to respond to the errata).

You can try to contact the email address of the customer support Apress (see the ' contact us' link on the pages of the book) - they might be able to provide errata for the book.

  • Where to find information OR when you make the customizations

    Hello friends,

    I am writing a small default customization code the type of conversion according to the contract being created in the ORGANIZATIONAL unit. For contracts created in Italy OR, I failed the conversion type to "rate Spot of Israel' instead of 'Corporate rate' which is used for all the other OUs.

    However, the field: OKS_HEADER. AUTHORING_ORG_ID returns null when I start to create a new contract. The default value is 'Corporate rate' rather than 'Spot rate of Italy.

    Someone can tell me where the org_id or the set_of_books_id are stored and how do I get it back? Here's the sql code, I write:

    = select decode(:OKS_HEADER.) AUTHORING_ORG_ID, 125, 'Italian Spot', 'Corporate') of double

    Thank you.

    Hi SK,

    I think you are badly understand something as it is perfectly simple to derive the org_id UO current (or indeed appoint but id is easier) within a personalization. Sandeep and I have answers above are in fact the same: ${ps.org_id} returns the current value of the option of profile MO: operational unit.

    There are two options of profile, I think you're confused: MO: MO and operational unit: default working unit. The number one key and one to which we refer, is the first of them which, at the level of responsibility, determines the ORGANIZATIONAL unit in which your users are working at any given time. I am aware that the situation is more complex in R12 but I'm still in 11.5.10 - world you didn't mention what version you have.

    I used the syntax I suggested above on several different projects to apply customizations to one or several selected UO among those available, and it works very well.

    Kind regards

  • Finding information on the ink using the built-in Web server in Photosmarts

    SAP (built-in web server) is a useful tool which is used in many respects related to networking, it can provide information on Web Services and can also set Static IP and static DNS on the printer.

    But, if it is connected to the network via Ethernet or via a wireless connection with the Officejet, it is also a great way to check the ink levels and number of pages.

    To access EWS of the printer.  Take the IP address of the printer and type it in a browser on the computer. The IP address can be found under settings wireless to the printer on display or on the Network Configuration report that can be printed.

    Once we've hit this address in the browser, the integrated Web server opens to a screen that will show you some basic information on this page. It will be showing the ink levels estimated for the printer.

    For a more detailed look at the output of consumer and media of ink printers:

    1. once on the homepage of the Photosmart EWS, click the tab above titled "Tools".

    2. from there, looking at the left column on the new page that appears, click reports

    3. from here, click use report

     

    • We'll now be able to see how many cartridges have been replaced for each color in the printer.
    • Once can see the total number of pages for pages printed by the printer
    • This report will also give a break down on how many pages when printed on plain paper, photos and media size

    So, for those who are connected by Ethernet or wireless to the printer; Here's another option to find information about the ink levels.  These steps and information listed are general guidelines.

     

    I hope the community finds this is useful and informative.  Good impression!

  • vRA: identity device or vSphere SSO when there are multiple vCenters (each with their own SSO) in the environment?

    The installer: We have multiple vCenters each with their own SSO. We must build a minimum install vRA lab 6.1 and used the SSO to the vCenter which is the endpoint lab (and ended up having problems when this vCenter SSO had to be rebuilt and in turn liquid reconstruction vRA). Building on a vRA 6.2 Distributed Lab (based on deployment in the 6.1 reference architecture) to validate our production plan and decided to use the identity.

    Question: For a production buildout there is no reason not to use the device of the identity (scalability, performance, lack of HA)? If you are using vSphere SSO, when there are multiple vCenters one that should be used for SSO of vRA? If that vSphere SSO is never removed (say on the whole things are replaced by a central SSO for all vCenters rather than each on their own, or some issue needs to be rebuilt) is there a clean way to repoint SSO vRA without a reconstruction?

    Post edited by: RebeccaW (removed unrelated to Postgres question)

    What I did in this case is to build a fresh cluster SSO using vCenter SSO and pointing vCAC on this one. It becomes my main source of SSO and I slowly vCenters point and other components to it overtime. You usually put vCAC SSO signed certificates and generally I find people vCenter SSO deployment in this way. To remedy this trying to modify an existing SSO vCenters and risk having to reinstall your VC because you missed the CERT, simply create a new. This also alleviates a changing overtime vCenter and spoil the vCAC SSO. The unit of identity cannot be clustered or joining existing areas of SSO. So if you are looking for HA and scale which probably does not cut it.

  • What return dbms_sql.last_error_position when ther is no error

    Good grief, good afternoon, good evening
    I need your i read all documentation Abu dbms_sql.last_error_position there receive no information on this subject this function to return when he exist' Error n, can any body help me
    that you for your time,
    MI excume English

    Michael:

    It's kind of strange. I ran your code exactly as you have it posted and got the same result, for the first time. After running it a few times, he started to give 0 as the last position of the error in a reliable way, even after my closing session and start a new. I had to go to another database to replicate the result. Once a database returned the correct result, it seemed to make for any session of anywhere and apparently for all users. I don't have a database that I can bounce at the moment, but I wonder if it survives a reboot.

    If there is an error in the sql statement that you are monitoring, it will throw an error like it normally would.

    SQL> DECLARE
      2     c   INTEGER := DBMS_SQL.open_cursor ();
      3  BEGIN
      4     DBMS_SQL.parse (c, 'select * form dual', DBMS_SQL.native);
      5     DBMS_OUTPUT.put_line ('Last Error: ' || DBMS_SQL.LAST_ERROR_POSITION ());
      6     DBMS_SQL.close_cursor (c);
      7  END;
      8  /
    DECLARE
    *
    ERROR at line 1:
    ORA-00923: FROM keyword not found where expected
    ORA-06512: at "SYS.DBMS_SYS_SQL", line 909
    ORA-06512: at "SYS.DBMS_SQL", line 39
    ORA-06512: at line 4
    

    In order to capture the position of the error using DBMS_SQL. LAST_ERROR_POSITION, you must do so within an exception like this block:

    SQL> DECLARE
      2     c   INTEGER := DBMS_SQL.open_cursor ();
      3  BEGIN
      4     DBMS_SQL.parse (c, 'select * form dual', DBMS_SQL.native);
      5
      6     DBMS_SQL.close_cursor (c);
      7  EXCEPTION
      8     WHEN OTHERS THEN
      9        DBMS_OUTPUT.put_line ('Last Error: ' || DBMS_SQL.LAST_ERROR_POSITION ());
     10        DBMS_SQL.close_cursor (c);
     11        RAISE;
     12  END;
     13  /
    Last Error: 9
    DECLARE
    *
    ERROR at line 1:
    ORA-00923: FROM keyword not found where expected
    ORA-06512: at line 11
    

    So, to answer your question explicit "I need know what back when ther appears no error", if it does not throw an exception he analysis successfully.

    By the way, if you are taking into the sql statements to analyze of outside the database (for example a statement entered on a form or a dynamic sql statement, you want to be really sure that the statement is 'clean' ", because according to the documentation, the procedure of ANALYSIS ' analyzes the instruction given in the given cursor.) All the instructions are analyzed immediately. In addition, the DDL statements are executed immediately when analysis. ». you could leave yourself open to a nasty sql injection.
