Unable to attach document in database Via Oracle Forms 11gR2?

Su.gi Apr 29, 2016 5:34 AM

Hi All,

I am developing an application using Oracle Forms and Reports 11gR2.

I have a table like below

CREATE TABLE EMPLOYEE_ATTACH

( EA_SEQ_NO NUMBER(5),

EA_DOC_NAME VARCHAR2(50 BYTE),

EA_DOC BLOB )

I used the above table in forms and have a one button.

In WHEN-BUTTON-PRESSED trigger, I used the below code

DECLARE

VAR_FILE_NAME VARCHAR2 (500);

VAR_FILE_NAME_ONLY VARCHAR2 (100);

GLO_BU VARCHAR2 (500);

LB$RESULT BOOLEAN;

BEGIN

VAR_FILE_NAME := client_get_file_name ('','','jpeg Files/*.jpg','Select an Doc File', open_file,TRUE);

IF SUBSTR (VAR_FILE_NAME, 1, 1) = '\'

THEN

VAR_FILE_NAME := '\' || VAR_FILE_NAME;

END IF;

VAR_FILE_NAME_ONLY :=

SUBSTR (VAR_FILE_NAME,

INSTR (VAR_FILE_NAME, '\', -1) + 1,

LENGTH (VAR_FILE_NAME));

:EA_DOC_NAME := VAR_FILE_NAME_ONLY;

COMMIT;

GLO_BU := 'EA_SEQ_NO = ''' || :EA_SEQ_NO || '''';

LB$RESULT :=

WEBUTIL_FILE_TRANSFER.CLIENT_TO_DB_WITH_PROGRESS (

VAR_FILE_NAME,

'EMPLOYEE_ATTACH',

'EA_DOC',

GLO_BU,

'File Upload',

'FILE UPLOAD IN PROGRESS..',

FALSE,

NULL);

END;

For me, If I choose the file for attach, then the progress bar is loading, but it is not stored in my database.

How to solve this problem??

Thanks in Advance,

Su.gi

IF you are using webutil then why are you using this FBean.Invoke_char.
It can be done using webutil.open_file_dialog and after that you can select the file
and rest of the work will same .

You can check this webutil demo for your reference http://www.oracle.com/ocom/groups/public/@otn/documents/webcontent/196249.zip

Try this

DECLARE
  VAR_FILE_NAME        VARCHAR2 (500);
  VAR_FILE_NAME_ONLY  VARCHAR2 (100);
  GLO_BU              VARCHAR2 (500);
  LB$RESULT            BOOLEAN;
BEGIN

VAR_FILE_NAME := client_get_file_name( directory_name => null
                                      ,file_name      => null
                                      ,file_filter    => '|JPG Files(*.jpg)|*.jpg|'
                                      ,message        => 'Select an Image File'
                                      ,dialog_type    => open_file
                                      ,select_file    => True
                                      );

  /*
  IF SUBSTR (VAR_FILE_NAME, 1, 1) = '\'
  THEN
      VAR_FILE_NAME := '\' || VAR_FILE_NAME;
  END IF;
  */
  VAR_FILE_NAME_ONLY := SUBSTR (VAR_FILE_NAME, INSTR (VAR_FILE_NAME, '\', -1) + 1, LENGTH (VAR_FILE_NAME));
  :EA_DOC_NAME := VAR_FILE_NAME_ONLY;
  GLO_BU := 'EA_SEQ_NO='||:EA_SEQ_NO;
  LB$RESULT := WEBUTIL_FILE_TRANSFER.CLIENT_TO_DB_WITH_PROGRESS (clientFile      => VAR_FILE_NAME,
                                                                  ,tableName      => 'EMPLOYEE_ATTACH',
                                                                  ,columnName      => 'EA_DOC',
                                                                  ,whereClause    => GLO_BU,
                                                                  ,progressTitle  => 'File Upload',
                                                                  ,progressSubTitle=> 'File Upload In Progress..',
                                                                  ,asynchronous    => false,
                                                                  ,callbackTrigger => Null);
END;

Change c:\temp to your correct path if you are not using c:\temp

Check that in webutil.cfg you have to set the following configuration

transfer.database.enabled=TRUE

transfer.appsrv.enabled=TRUE

transfer.appsrv.workAreaRoot=c:\temp

transfer.appsrv.accessControl=TRUE

transfer.appsrv.read.1=c:\temp

transfer.appsrv.write.1=c:\temp

Check that your EA_SEQ_NO is generating correctly.

Thanks Kalpataru. Thanks for accepting me as friend.

I used the below code after LB$RESULT condition.

if LB$RESULT
the
:System.Message_Level := '15';
commit;
:System.Message_Level := '0';
end if;

After using this, its working..... I just seen the code in webutil demo file.
Is it correct way????

Thanks,
Su.gi

Yes you have to use like this.

if LB$RESULT then

:System.Message_Level := '15';

commit;

:System.Message_Level := '0';

Set_Alert_Property('Alt_Confirm',Alert_Message_Text,'File uploaded successfully into the Database');

v_Alt:=Show_Alert('Alt_Confirm');

else

Set_Alert_Property('Alt_Error',Alert_Message_Text,'File upload to Database failed');

v_Alt:=Show_Alert('Alt_Error');

end if;

I have one doubt.
Why we want to use the below code
if LB$RESULT then
:System.Message_Level := '15';
commit;
:System.Message_Level := '0';
end if;

Without using this, my attachment is not storing in BLOB column.

When I used the above code its working...
