Retrieving and display *small* Oracle BLOBs in browser....
Hi. I use JDBC to retrieve an Oracle BLOB of either gif or jpg or tif Some of the BLOBs are fairly big e.g. 40+KBytes. However most are smaller, around 10+KBytes. I found that I can retrieve and display the "big" blobs or write to to a file in a temp dir, but I cannot display the smaller blobs. When I try writing the small blobs to a temp dir, the file handle will be created, but the file length is zero ! Can anyone help ??? Any hints, tips, suggestions ???

You need both : A startup script for Oracle and setting the global system parameters.

JAVA accessing BLOBS and CLOBS
Hi All. A bit out of context here, but this is one of the most knowledgeable and helpful forum ... I have an Oracle table , each row has one CLOB and one BLOB. I have been able to stream documents into and out of the BLOB's incl. MS .doc Also I have been able to get the content from BLOB and write it to a target directory.However I am having odd problems with CLOB, a simple text file. My servlet attempts to read the CLOB and does create the output file in the target directory, but does not copy the content over. It also returns 0 for clobLength - here is where the troubles start !?! Here is the stub-code :...ResultSet clobRS = thisStmt.executeQuery ("SELECT ATextMsg " +"FROM ... " +"WHERE ... " );clobRS.next();// CLOB thisCLOB = ((OracleResultSet) clobRS).getCLOB("ATextMsg");int chunkSize = thisClob.getChunkSize();System.out.println("chunkSize is " + chunkSize); // default us 8132...char [] textBuffer = new char[chunkSize];String targetFile = targetDir + "retrieved_" + fileName; File thisFile = new File(targetFile); // it does create an empty target file...// read content as ASCII (text) content...FileOutputStream thisFileOutputStream = new FileOutputStream(thisFile);OutputStreamWriter thisWriter = new OutputStreamWriter(thisFileOutputStream);BufferedWriter thisBufferedWriter = new BufferedWriter(thisWriter);//long clobLength = thisClob.length(); // things go very wrong here, returns length of 0, why ?!?System.out.println("clobLength is " + clobLength); flush to targetFile, but nothing gets copied over due to clobLength=0 ...for (position=1; position<=clobLength; position+=chunkSize){ int charsRead = thisClob.getChars(position, chunkSize, textBuffer);thisBufferedWriter.write(testBuffer);}...Since the clobLength is 0, obviously it will not copy from the database CLOB to the file.Manually change the clobLength = 8132, recompile and run, then it copies some junk to the targetFile, certainly not the textual data in the CLOB itself. The BLOB is fine...Can someone comment on this please and if possible, give me a hint on where I might have gone wrong with a simple text file ???

Is this a virus : "/tmp/orbit-"
Hi All. I have these strange sub-dirs in /tmp/orb- , and in these sub-dirs , hundreds of files names like this : "srwxr-xr-x orb-29348673785". In the /tmp directory itself, many hundreds of files with names similar to this : "file-fdhfgv878r" Never seen them before, propagate faster than rabbits Is this a virus ?
Re: From LILO to GRUB
Hi all! At the moment I have reached my pain barrier, so I do not intend to download and install any beta software. On the other hand I have heard no complains about grub.

Need some ideas about configuring gateways and routers (other than buying them)...
Hi all. I just built a gateway machine : eth0 to DSL with NAT and eth1 is internal. DSL does forwarding with single static ip supplied by ISP. That part is fine. Now I want to have a firewall on the gateway machine, up pops ipchains.rules for input, output and forwarding. That's when issues arise. Yes, it protects the machines behind the firewall, but I seem to lose the ability to browse the net. Mind you, selectively we can even telnet/ssh to various sites and vice versa. The questions are : (1) best way to build a secure firewall (relatively speaking) n yet allows users to browse the net - seems contradictory ??? (2) are there any other solutions than to stick several nic's into the gateway and assign each a different address or address range where each range has a different ipchain-scheme for input/output/forwarding ???
Re: Circular argument installing BIND-9.2.1 over Bind-9.1.0
Okay, many of u may be familiar with this circular dependencies > Bind-9.1.0 requires libdns.so.4 and libisc.so.3 , therefore I have to freshen with Bind-utils-9.2.1, this won;t work because the so-files are required by bind-9.1.0 In a nutshell a circular dependency.

From LILO to GRUB
Hi All . Hi Aly. Is there any painless and easy way to move from lilo to grub ???
Linux looks for hda, hdb etc when there are none ...
Hi all. One of my boxes uses SCSI. On the ASUS m/b I toggled EIDE h/d off. This is fine for the BIOS on booting up, it fines the Adaptec and proceeds happily. However when RH7.1 loads, it starts looking for hda, hdb etc when in fact they are sda, sdb etc and RH7.1 throws these error messages : hda : IRQ probe failed (...) hda : IRQ probe failed (...) hda : noresponse, resetting drive hdb : IRQ probe failed (...) and so on ... then continues loading successfully. It is *annoying*, can someone tell me how to get rid of these spurious error messages ?
Where to put ipchain-rules ?
Hi I am unsure where to put my ipchain rules. It is also a matter if timing. As I understand it , on booting RH : (1) init runs /etc/inittab (2) then /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit (3) then /etc/rc.d/rc.local Then at some point in time, init recognises the runlevel and run the links in rc(n).d e.g. rc2.d which has got "S08ipchains" and "S08iptables". I further assumed the ascii-order the links appear in will be the order in which they are loaded. What is the best time to fire up my own ipchain rules ??? If I was running rc2.d, would a link like S09ipchains.myrules be a good time ??? The actual rules are in /etc/rc.d/init.d/ipchains.myrules
Configuring font with lilo
Hi ! I have this old m/b with integrated graphics controller. The box boots to command line and has only the bare RH essentials. The default font is very bad for eyes, so I added "VGA=ASK" to lilo.conf. On rebooting, I can either specify the listed display options (all low-res) or type in "scan", which allows me to choose the hi-res options. However, all the hi-res options have a blue line above the blue directory names. When I use "vi", the empty lines have a continuous blue underscore ??? Is this a peculiar pronlem with the onboard graphics controller or is it lilo ?
Font size (again) at cmd line level ?
Hi. I know this has been asked before. I have a RH7.1 box that boots to command line and has only the vrey bare essential ie no X11 , Gnome , whatever... The font size at command line level is very bad for eyes . Are there any ways that can be changed ? I know the onboard AGP can support that ??? THX
DLink DFE-530TX+ on RH7.1 ???
Hi I usually use Realtek , but this time I picked up some DLink TFE-530+ nic's Seems okay, modules.conf has the entries eth0 8139.too and eth1 8139.too Looks okay on "ifconfig -a", but then when I do a "route" it takes a long time to recognise the default route and I don't seem to be able to join the internal network. I remember some talk about DLink not being really compatible on earlier versions of RH. Has anyone been able to make them work of RH7.1 using 8139.too ???
Does RH7.3 Apache httpd comes with DSO support ?

BSD vs Linux ?
Hi ! Recently there was some chat about "real Unix". Was there any seminal comparative studies between FreeBSD (or even NetBSD) and Linux ? BSD has been around a long time. Why Linux ? Why not BSD ? Drivers ? Platforms and chipsets ? Are there anything one can do with Linux which one cannot do with BSD ? Does BSD manage kernel memory better and does Linux swap more "aggressively" ? Is there a JVM for BSD ? Does the Apache staple run on BSD ? Questions upon questions... The truth is out there somewhere.

JNDI portability...
Hi ! I am creating DataSources for Ora ConnectionPools (JAVA servlets) and it seems I need to create a "context object" first.LDAP was mentioned and appealed to me.Reading up on Oracle, JNDI was explicitly recommended.Also, JNDI seems to be used only on J2EE, but I have J2SDK standard edtion installed.I take it I need to upgrade to J2EE? Would someone share their experience ? thx.
