Notifications Automatically Closing

Problem:

A preparer creates a purchase request and send it to the approver, who approves it. The preparer then receives a notification that the PR was approved, but the notification automatically disappears from the list after the browser is refreshed or when the user logs off.

Solution:

The AutoClose_FYI parameter must be changed from ‘Y’ to ‘N’ in Notification Mailer.

Then the Notification Mailer must be stopped and started for the change to take effect.

Enabling Archivelog Mode in Oracle9i

Problem:

How do I enable archivelog in an Oracle9i database?

Solution:

After logging into the running Oracle9i instance as the SYS user (sqlplus “/ as sysdba”), check the log_archive parameters:

show parameter log_archive

Set the archive log destination directory (note that these commands assume that the database uses the spfile):

alter system set log_archive_start=TRUE scope=spfile;
alter system set log_archive_dest_1='location=/u01/archive/ORCL/' scope=spfile;
alter system set log_archive_format='arch_%t_%s.arc' scope=spfile;

Then shutdown and mount the database, and enable archivelog:

shutdown immediate;
startup mount;
archive log start;
alter database archivelog;
alter database open;
