• AppleScript and shell scripts

  I'm on Mac OS X 10.11.2 and have problems with AppleScript and shell scripting.

  The following script is a cutting of a larger project:

  Tell application "Finder".

  the value the_MePath (path for me)

  the value the_MeCont (the_MePath container) as string

  tell the end

  the value of the_MeCont (text 1 thru-2) the_MeContShell

  -normally isn't here!

  the value the_MePara (the_MeCont & "STH - C Para WAV_48k_24.txt")

  the value the_Parameters (opening for access file the_MePara with permission to write)

  write ("WAV\r24\r48000\r48k\r") the_Parameters

  Close access the_Parameters

  -normally isn't here!

  -destined to be there!

  -the value the_MePara (shell script 'find' & city form the_MeContShell POSIX path & "-iname" "Para STH - C *'")

  the value the_Parameters (opening for access file the_MePara)

  the value the_ParaList (read the the_MePara file)

  Close access the_Parameters

  paragraph 1 of the value userFormat the_ParaList

  paragraph 2 of the the_ParaList the value userBitDepth

  paragraph 3 of the the_ParaList the value userSampleRate

  paragraph 4 of the the_ParaList the value shortSampleRate

  The lines between the "-normally isn't there!"-lines fills a file in the directory of the AppleScript with the data.

  So now the file is there.

  If I remove these lines and enable the line below "-intended to be here! ', the shell should find this file.

  What I get, then, is a mistake:

  "Fehler beim Zugriff auf das Netzwerk." error number - 5000 file "/ users/shared/_AppleScript development/_Archiv Sniplets/STH-C Para WAV_48k_24.txt" to "class fsrf".

  to "open for access file the_MePara.

  Any ideas, anyone?

  Kind regards...

  ... Maik

  Hello

  Remove the end of file before the_MePara.

  the_MePara contains a posix path type path--> "/ users/shared/_AppleScript development/_Archiv Sniplets/STH-C Para WAV_48k_24.txt.

  You can use the file on the path of type HFS --> ' StartupDiskName:Users: shared: _AppleScript development: _Archiv Sniplets:STH - C Para WAV_48k_24.txt.

  Information:

  The script didn't need to open and close the access when the script to read-only.

  Use this line only--> the value the_ParaList to read the_MePara

• OBIEE-Shell Script

  Hi all

  I'm trying my hands on scripting in OBIEE. I wrote following script

  #!/bin/bash
  export PATH=$PATH::$HOME/bin:/u01/app/oracle/obiee117g/instances/instance1/bin
  . /u01/app/oracle/obiee117g/instances/instance1/bin/opmnctl status
  
  

  When I run this script. I get the following error.

  /u01/app/oracle/obiee117g/instances/instance1/bin/opmnctl: line 25: =: command not found
  /u01/app/oracle/obiee117g/instances/instance1/bin/opmnctl: line 26: =: command not found

  What Miss me?

  Thank you

  TL; DR: this point on the third line of your script is redundant and the origin of the problem. Run this instead:

  /u01/app/oracle/obiee117g/instances/instance1/bin/opmnctl status
  

  Also, since you are using the absolute path (that is the full path to opmnctl, starting with a /) setting the environment variable PATH is redundant.

  Explanation:

  The dot is a shortcut for the command of the source , which has a different behavior to just run the script directly.

  You use source when you are wanting to run a script to set the environment etc. variables (an example of this is the script of bi - init.sh, which implements the OBI environment to run utilities such as nqcmd).

  If you open opmnctl itself, you will see that it is a perl script. The "shebang" on the first line tells linux to run the script using the perl interpreter, and I suppose when you are sourcing it Linux tries to pass under the shell running (bash) - and the perl language throws the bash syntax errors that you see

• CDF to run commands / Shell scripts

  Hi friends,

  I need help serious here regarding the CDF function.

  I created a JAR file to run batch/shell scripts via the calculation script.

  I tested the JAR file and it works perfectly well that run without the calculation script, but I get errors including in Calc script, I get the error message.

  Initially, the error was: error of Machine virtual Java and later, it is class not found.

  Here are the steps to register the CDF:

  1. place the JAR file in the location: E:\Oracle\Middleware\EPMSystem11R1\products\Essbase\EssbaseServer\java\udf\

  2. update the file udf.policy with the following statement:

  Grants all permissions to BatEx

  give the code "file:${essbase.java.home}/BatEx.jar" {}

  permission java.security.AllPermission;

  };

  3 restart the Essbase services.

  4. I am trying to create this function at Global level so no mention is not the name of the Application in the MaxL at registration:

  create or replace function '@BatEx' as

  "BatEx.

  Spec '@BatEx(Complete path in double quotes) '.

  Comment "Functions A CDF that runs the batch file in Essbase Server";

  5 this is the calc script:

  @BatEx 'E:/Oracle/Middleware/EPMSystem11R1/common/utilities/Test.bat '; -It gives an error: error: invalid syntax 1012000 - not a command CALC [@BatEx]

  I tried another way:

  RUNJAVA @BatEx 'E:/Oracle/Middleware/EPMSystem11R1/common/utilities/Test.bat '; -Gives an error: problem running [@BatEx 'E:/Oracle/Middleware/EPMSystem11R1/common/utilities/Test.bat']: [can't find @BatEx class]

  Where I am wrong here? Please help me out here.

  Kind regards

  Thanks much Amit and Jake! I finally cracked!

  Sad thing is that I have found no OTN correct information regarding function Java Custom, rather there was a lot of information about CDFs pre-existing provided by Oracle, so I decided to write a complete solution of CDF, where Java code too was created by the developer of Essbase applications.

  The requirement that I had was to trigger the batch file in the calculation script. Here is the detailed requirement:

  Update Variable of Substitution by planning web form.

  1. the user enters the data in the form of the planning web and saves it.

  2. the calc script attached to the web form, extracts data and records the flat file on Essbase server.

  3. earlier we were executing the script batch on the web server as the workflow will identify the lots on the web server and not on Essbase server, but after the development of this CDF to run the batch job, the batch files can be run directly Essbase server.

  4. the idea is to keep the user limited to the tasks list, so that it does not jump to the to-do list to SubVar web form, workflow and then return to the task list for a simple job to change SubVar.

  There were a few challenges that I encountered during the development of this JAVA function, namely:

  1 function CDF records do not : I tested JAVA code separately using command line and the executable Jar file will execute the batch, as expected. But I couldn't get why my CDF is not have recorded trace. After a lot of searching on Google and analysis, I found that it was the difference between the Version of JAVA (the JAVA compiler I used to compile and create my JAR file) and JAVA (JVM Essbase) virtual machine. I used JDK 1.7 update 65 to compile and create my POT so that the JVM used in the Essbase Server Update 1.6 is 35. I uninstalled JDK 1.7 of my machine, downloaded Update 1.6 35 archives of the Oracle and recompiled the code. Guess what! My CDF function was recorded first.

  So always check the compatibility of the Version of the JDK you used to compile and create the JAR file and JVM on your Essbase server.

  You can check the version of the JVM in console EAS-> EssbaseCluster-> right click-> Edit-> properties-> tab environment. There is a line that appears something like:

  ; JvmModuleLocation $J (EPM_ORACLE_HOME)-...-jdk160_35\jre\bin\server\jvm.dll (the bold is your version of the JVM).

  2. "main class not found" error after successful registration of CDF:

  I haven't had that one category of Public in my JAVA code and this error took me by surprise. I also checked the "public static void main" section in my code and everything seems to be OK. Please note that JAVA is case sensitive - 'hand' and 'Hand' aren't even in JAVA.

  I did some further research and one of John's response to a CDF request, I came to know that I need to include another argument (context) in the main section of my Java code and recompile with classpath "essbase.jar" (I will explain the controls in the next steps). I changed the main section of my JAVA code and included the argument:

  Public Shared Sub main (paramContext context, String [] paramArrayOfString)

  The following JAVA code to perform the batch in Essbase Server:

  import com.hyperion.essbase.calculator.Context;

  import java.io.BufferedReader;

  import java.io.InputStream;

  import java.io.InputStreamReader;

  import java.io.OutputStream;

  import java.io.PrintStream;

  public class BatEx

  {

  Public Shared Sub main (context, paramContext, String [] paramArrayOfString)

  {

  Try

  {

  String str1 = paramArrayOfString [0];

  LocalProcess process = Runtime.getRuntime () .exec (str1);

  InputStream localInputStream1 = localProcess.getInputStream ();

  OutputStream localOutputStream = localProcess.getOutputStream ();

  InputStream localInputStream2 = localProcess.getErrorStream ();

  BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader (new InputStreamReader (localInputStream1)) localBufferedReader;

  String str2;

  While ((str2 = localBufferedReader.readLine ())! = null) {}

  System.out.println (str2);

  }

  System.out.println ("package executed successfully.");

  }

  catch (Exception localException)

  {

  System.out.println ("error!:" + localException);

  localException.printStackTrace ();

  }

  }

  }

  Install the (compatible to Essbase JVM) compatible version of the JDK on your machine. Compile the above code by using the following command:

  C:\ >javac - classpath essbase.jar BatEx.java - please specify the path to the file "essbase.jar". It generally to the location: : \Oracle\Middleware\EPMSystem11R1\products\Essbase\EssbaseServer\java\

  The code should compile without any problem, and a .class file must be created with the same name.

  Now is the time to create the JAR file. Use the following command:

  C:\ >jar cf BatEx.jar BatEx.class

  Now the executable JAR file must also be created.

  Place this JAR file: : \Oracle\Middleware\EPMSystem11R1\products\Essbase\EssbaseServer\java\udf\

  Restart the service of Essbase and application (the only Application Restarting should work, but I didn't take any chances to restart both).

  Check the log of function CDF recording applications. The application log should be at the location:

  : \Oracle\Middleware\user_projects\epmsystem3\diagnostics\logs\essbase\essbase\app\-

  The CDF enrollment message should be something like:

  External function of [GLOBAL] [@BatEx] saved OK

  I used the following MaxL to register my function in Essbase:

  create or replace function '@BatEx' as

  "BatEx.

  Spec '@BatEx (StringArray).

  Comment "Functions A CDF that runs the batch file in Essbase Server"

  I used the following script to calc to run my CDF (fairly simple however):

  ESS_LOCALE English_UnitedStates.Latin1@Binary

  RUNJAVA BatEx "": / Oracle/Middleware/EPMSystem11R1/common/utilities/Test.bat ";" -Note: please replace with the name of the physical drive.

  I went and checked the logs that the Test.bat written and "wallah! The log file had some content and 1 KB in size. I deleted the contents of the log file and checked again, the result was the same.

  Hope this answer helps all of us who work on CDF that is clean.

  Please like this post if this can help you in some way.

  Thanks again to Amit, Jake and John for helping me solve this puzzle.

  Kind regards

  Newbie says:
  Mr President, I gave my oracle home.

  How to check if she properly o?

  No, you said that you believe that oracle_home should be. But you have NOT proven that it was properly defined in the session that threw the error and the error itself is almost certain evidence that it was NOT set correctly. And your assertion that the referenced file exists (again, your assertion, not proof) gives more weight to the evidence that ORACLE_HOME is not set correctly.

  Run the following commands, and then copy and paste the whole session (complete order, full power) to your next assignment

  env |grep ORA|sort

  Please describe in more detail what you are doing. You run scripts 2 or is it in a script? If you set the variables of Oracle in a separate script, you need to run the script.

  Source to run a script, the commands in the script are executed as if you type to the current command prompt. A script that is not executed source will lose the variables that you define in the script when the script stops. You can source run a script using the '. '. " script" or "source" (bash). The export command adds variables to the environment of the executed orders later.

  See the following examples:

  cat > shelltest <
  

  Test1:
  $ a=a
  $ ./shelltest
  
  $ echo $a
  a
  
  Test2:
  $ export a=a
  $ ./shelltest
  a
  $ echo $a
  a
  
  Test3:
  $ . ./shelltest
  a
  $ echo $a

• How2 validate the chain of connection in unix shell script

  I am writing a shell script unix which removes the instance user/passwd/user, form a connection string and pass it to sqlplus. Now, I want to validate if a valid/clean connection string was formed. Basically, I want to do something like below
  
  sqlplus-s $CONN_STR
  
  and disconnect if valid string and always disconnect and return to guest if it's not a string valid.
  
  Is there a clean way, I can check if the return has been after a successful login and how disconnect it in script and check if a string is not valid.

  Create a file name test.sql containing only the OUTPUT and use-L option to SQL * more (attempts to connect only once, instead of reprompting error.)

  D:\>sqlplus -L hr/ko@XE @test.sql

• Password Oracle symbol # does not not in shell script

  I have the shell script that exports the database schema. My Userid password export subscription contains #. Shell script is throwing error. If we have the password without this character, then it works fine. How do we use the password in shell script to perform this task?
  
  $ORACLE_HOME/bin/expdp system/test #test = userid parfile test.par dumpfile = test.dmp =
  
  I tried to use double-quotes and apostrophes for this password... but it still does not. any help is appreciated.

  Please post the contents of test.par.

  You can try to run before running EXPDP:

  drop table SYSTEM.EXP_DEVDB06;
