Extract pdf file stored in blob in xmlp_sched_data
Hello,
I am trying to get at the output generated by a bursting job scheduled within BI Publisher (part of OBIEE).
The XMLP_SCHED_DATA table stores the output file (pdf in my case) in compressed form in the "DATA' blob field. If I were to use SQL Developer to save the BLOB data into a file with a .zip extension, I can unzip the downloaded file but the file name seems to be "data.out".
But if I try to use the UTL_COMPRESS.lz_uncompress to uncompress this blob, I get an error saying :
29294. 00000 - "A data error occurred during compression or uncompression."
