Enable Trace for Concurrent Programs in Oracle Apps R12.1.3

Tracing the Concurrent program is very good option to Debug any issue while running the concurrent program.


Agenda :

 To enable the Trace for Concurrent Programs
 To Debug the issues in Concurrent Programs or its dependent objects.

Steps :

 1. Goto Concurrent Program Definition

Application Developer –> Concurrent –> Program –> check Enable Trace

save it.

Query your concurrent program and check the Enable Trace check box at the bottom of the screen.

2. Set the Profile Concurrent: Allow Debugging to YES.

save it.

3. Navigate to the Responsibility from where you are running the program.

4. Before Submitting the Concurrent Program in Submit Request screen there will be an option like Debug Options click on that button.

5. In the Debug Options select the SQL Trace and enable Trace with binds.

6. Submit the Concurrent Program and note down the Request id.

7.Trace file name will always be post fixed with oracle_process_id.To get the oracle_process_id use the below SQL
 select oracle_process_id from fnd_concurrent_requests where request_id= Request_id;

8.And the Trace file path can be derived using the below

SQL> Select * from v$parameter where name=’user_dump_dest’;

Trace file location:-
/apps/sonu/db/tech_st/11.1.0/admin/SONU_oracle/diag/rdbms/sonu/SONU/trace

How ro convert .trc to .out file :-
tkprof ACSDEV_ora_15529_SEKARS.trc ACSDEV_ora_15529_SEKARS.out  explain=apps/apps  sys=no sort=PRSDSK,EXEDSK,FCHDSK,EXECPU,FCHCPU


9. Get the trace file to your local machine.Understanding the raw trace is very complex so use
TKPROF utility to make the Trace file readable.

10. Open the Command Prompt and run the below command
 TKPROF < Trace File_Name.trc> <Output_File_Name.out> SORT=fchela

11.A new outfile will be generated with the name given in the above command.
Analyse the Output file to know the answers for your problem.


Sql queries to find the log files by Request id


select req.oracle_process_id tracename, req.request_id, req.requested_by,usr.user_name,
prog.user_concurrent_program_name, req.request_date, req.phase_code, req.status_code, req.logfile_name ,
req.outfile_name, dest.value as user_dump_dest from apps. fnd_concurrent_requests req, gv$parameter dest,
apps.fnd_concurrent_programs_vl prog, apps.fnd_user usr

where  req. concurrent_program_id = prog.concurrent_program_id

and req.requested_by = usr.user_id

–and request_id like '17352717'

and dest.name= 'user_dump_dest'

and request_id like & Request_id;


Sql query find the log files by username


select req.oracle_process_id tracename, req.request_id, req.requested_by,usr.user_name,
prog.user_concurrent_program_name, req.request_date,  req.phase_code, req.status_code, req.logfile_name ,
req.outfile_name, dest.value as user_dump_dest

from apps. fnd_concurrent_requests req, gv$parameter dest, apps.fnd_concurrent_programs_vl prog, apps.fnd_user usr

where  req. concurrent_program_id = prog.concurrent_program_id

and req.requested_by = usr.user_id

–and request_id like '17352717'

and dest.name= ‘user_dump_dest’

and usr.user_name like ‘sujeet%jha%’

order by request_date desc



SQL> select oracle_process_id from fnd_concurrent_requests where request_id = &Request_id;

 SQL> select * from apps. fnd_concurrent_requests req,gv$parameter dest , apps .fnd_concurrent_programs_vl prog
where  req. concurrent_program_id = prog.concurrent_program_id and request_id like '17352717' and dest.name= ‘user_dump_dest’

How to add employee detail in oracle apps R12

Employee creation and user mapping
Employee creation, Employee role assignments and user mapping:

Issue reason:
       
Some times we are getting permission issue while accessing some of the module/responsibility like
 'iReceivable, Service, Credit management Credit analyst' etc. For that we have to create new employee,import that employee,
 and assign roles (Not mandatory) finally map that employee into Application login user "Person field".

Creating an employee

An employee is the most important entity in an organization. Before creating an employee, the HR officer must know the date from which the employee will be active in the organization. In Oracle terminology, you can call it the employee's hire date. Apart from this, the HR officer must know basic details of the employee such as first name, last name, date of birth, and so on.

Navigation: Global HRMS Manager -->People -->Enter and Maintain.

Select new and enter employee details like name,gender from action tab select "Create Employment
" option for employee creation. And enter identification employee number and save it , then enter the address details.

 Import the Employee:

CRM Administrator --> Resource Manager -->import Resource

From report category page enter your employee name and search employee.
 After finding employee select the employee and click start import button. and click ok Finally select save resource button.

You want to assign any role for this employee means click details button and assign the required roles.
(Credit analyst, credit manager, collection agent, collection manager etc..)

Employee Mapping:

If employee creation process is done, map this employee with application user.
Navigation:  System administrator -->Security --> user --> Define

Query the application user and select this employee in person field, and save it.  

ORA-32006

ORA-32006: SEC_CASE_SENSITIVE_LOGON initialization parameter has been deprecated
ORA-32006: PARALLEL_AUTOMATIC_TUNING Initialization Parameter Has Been Deprecated

SQL> startup 
ORA-32004: obsolete and/or deprecated parameter(s) specified 
ORACLE instance started. 

Total System Global Area 167772160 bytes 
Fixed Size 1247900 bytes 
Variable Size 75498852 bytes 
Database Buffers 88080384 bytes 
Redo Buffers 2945024 bytes 
Database mounted. 
Database opened. 

SYMPTOMS

After setting the database initialization parameter: parallel_automatic_tuning='TRUE' in the initialization file: <init>.ora, the database startup returns:

ORA-32006: PARALLEL_AUTOMATIC_TUNING initialization parameter has been deprecated
The database starts as per normal.
The parameter is set as required by the OWB installation documentation.

CAUSE

The PARALLEL_AUTOMATIC_TUNING parameter has caused the error.

This parameter is no longer required. Refer to:
Warehouse Builder 10g Release 1 Installation Addendum section 1.3.2 PARALLEL_AUTOMATIC_TUNING Parameter:

"Section A.2 (page A-3) instructs you to set the PARALLEL_AUTOMATIC_TUNING parameter to TRUE. This parameter is deprecated in Oracle Database 10g.
Do not set the PARALLEL_AUTOMATIC_TUNING parameter in Oracle Database 10g."

SOLUTION

The parameter should not be set and can be removed from the database initialization file(PFILE).
Start database with Pfile.
Create spfile from Pfile.

Note:-

Security parameters in 11G and 12C

There are 5 parameters that are all prefixed with ‘sec’ in an 11g and 12c database.
Actually that is a lie because one is now deprecated in 12c. They are all, as you might guess related to security.

SEC_CASE_SENSITIVE_LOGON                                 TRUE in 11GR1 , 11GR2, DEPRECATED IN 12C
SEC_MAX_FAILED_LOGIN_ATTEMPTS                 default 11GR1,11GR2=10, 12c=3
SEC_PROTOCOL_ERROR_FURTHER_ACTION default is  CONTINUE in 11GR1, 11GR2, drop, 3 in 12c
SEC_PROTOCOL_ERROR_TRACE_ACTION        default is TRACE 11GR1,11GR2, 12c
SEC_RETURN_SERVER_RELEASE_BANNER           default is FALSE in 11GR1, 11GR2, TRUE in 12c
