  • 10g - what makes OBIEE does not cache files in the cache folder?

    Hi, experts,

    I would like to know
    What makes OBIEE does not cache files in the folder cache VIEW OF REQUEST (reports on dashboard)?

    of course, I activated the cache in nqsconfig.ini

    a few reasons why a query is not cached in obiee are:

    1. None of the tables involved in should be deleted from the query caching. Check the options for this option of caching of the physical layer.
    2. cached queries must follow all the presets in nqsconfig.ini. For example, size of cache entry, etc...
    3. the request must not contain functions such as current_timestamp, current_date, random functions, etc...

    I hope this helps.

  • AT300 does not accept movie files

    Hello

    I recently bought a refurbished AT300 tablet. I wanted that it mainly for I can transfer movies/series out there and watch without having WiFi.

    Can I transfer music files without problem (and they are), but when I try to transfer a movie file, an error screen appears on my phone and said that the device does not accept this type of file. I tried .avi and .mp4, and I don't see why he would not accept what they are so common...?

    I'll try to put the files on a SD card and see if the Tablet reads them from there, but it's just a little annoying. There is a lot of storage on the shelf so this isn' the question I do not think... can someone help!

    Thanks in advance!

    Why you n t install another player that can handle the format mp4 and avi?
    Game store Google provides a lot of different applications supporting these formats?

    For example the + MP4 video player for Android + (can play and MP4 files on your device browser) or + MX player +.

  • cannot open mswmm file - he said: it was created in a version of movie maker which is not supported.

  • Cannot import. In Vista Movie Maker MOV files

    I have pictures in my folder of photos I want to make a DVD. Some images are video clips with a file extension. MOV. When I open windows movie maker and click on "importt" I find my photo file and select one of the video clips and try ti import it. I get a message that says "cannot import that movie maker does not recognize the codec. What should I do to get this program to accept my video clips with the .mov file extensions?

    Hello PorterQuinn,

    Thank you for posting.  You will need a 3rd party software program or conversion to convert .mov to another type of file that will be recognized by Movie maker.  There are a few conversion tools free availible.  You can use your favorite search engine to find some of them.

    Please let me know if this helps you.

    =========================================
    I was wondering what version of Windows are you using? XP, Vista, 7

    file... the path will appear in the field "File".

    (2) the "Input format" field should automatically
    show... Let it 'Apple Quicktime (.mov)'
    as it is...

    (3) "output size" has two windows...
    does not display the field on the left, "no video".
    PRESET"... leave it as what...

    (4) in the next to move to the right window
    You can choose the format you want
    convert... try:

    (5) on the left, click on the blue * OK button.
    (sometimes the site is busy... If the conversion fails... try again)

    Now... wait as the file to be converted.
    (be patient)

    Once the conversion is completed, you will see:

    ... appears on the left, click on the "Save" button.
    Choose a folder to save in (I always download)
    on my desk)... on the left, click on the "Save" button.

  • Movie Maker cannot open the AVI file!

    I took a video. MOV format and converted to AVI, PAL but when I try to import into Movie Maker, it opens, indicating that the required codec is not installed.

    The MP3 files can not distracting in Movie Maker...
    Sometimes they work sometimes they do not have.
    It is also possible that you can import and
