PeopleTools Bug: Job Data CI

This is another look at an old post.  In summary, the problem is that when you create a Component Interface for the Job Data component, PeopleTools errors.  I decided to attempt to diagnose the PeopleTools bug by tracing it.

I tried this in PeopleTools 8.49.

Here are the last lines of the trace file:

Here is the insert statement that the error message reported:

INSERT INTO PSBCITEM ( 
    BCNAME, BCTYPE, BCITEMPARENT, BCITEMNAME, 
    SEQUENCE_NBR_6, BCACCESS, BCSCROLL, BCSCROLLNUM, 
    BCSCROLLNAME, RECNAME, SUBRECNAME, FIELDNAME, COMMENTSHORT, 
    MPDEVICEPERSISTINT, SYNCID
) VALUES ( 
    :1, :2, :3, :4, 
    :5, :6, :7, :8, 
    :9, :10, :11, :12, :13, 
    :14, :15
)

So, I looked up the table, and the keys are the first four fields: BCNAME, BCTYPE, BCITEMPARENT, and BCITEMNAME.

Assuming the last row is the duplicate, that means that another row has the same parent and name as:

Type = 4

Parent = JOB_JR

Item Name = INTCP_DEPTID

I did a search through the trace, and the INTCP_DEPTID only exists in this one location.  So, I don’t know what the problem is — our mystery goes unsolved.  What makes it more confusing is that saving a second time fixes the problem.

Maybe I will pull all of the Bind values into an Excel and see if I can find duplicates that way.  But, that is an exercise for another day.

Querying the Component

Here are some queries to find things out about the component.

This one is a simple list of all the fields in the component (doesn’t take into account subpages, etc):

SELECT CP.PNLGRPNAME, CP.MARKET, CP.DESCR,
           CPG.PNLNAME, CPG.ITEMLABEL,
           PG.DESCR,
           PGF.FIELDTYPE, PGF.LBLTEXT, PGF.RECNAME, PGF.FIELDNAME
FROM PSPNLGRPDEFN CP,
         PSPNLGROUP CPG,
         PSPNLDEFN PG,
         PSPNLFIELD PGF
WHERE CP.PNLGRPNAME = 'JOB_DATA'
     AND CP.MARKET = 'GBL'
    AND CP.PNLGRPNAME = CPG.PNLGRPNAME
    AND CP.MARKET = CP.MARKET
    AND PG.PNLNAME = CPG.PNLNAME
    AND PGF.PNLNAME = PG.PNLNAME;

This one shows just the records involved:

SELECT DISTINCT CP.PNLGRPNAME, CP.MARKET, CP.DESCR,  PGF.RECNAME, R.RECDESCR, R.RECTYPE
FROM PSPNLGRPDEFN CP,
         PSPNLGROUP CPG,
         PSPNLDEFN PG,
         PSPNLFIELD PGF,
         PSRECDEFN R
WHERE CP.PNLGRPNAME = 'JOB_DATA'
     AND CP.MARKET = 'GBL'
    AND CP.PNLGRPNAME = CPG.PNLGRPNAME
    AND CP.MARKET = CP.MARKET
    AND PG.PNLNAME = CPG.PNLNAME
    AND PGF.PNLNAME = PG.PNLNAME
    AND PGF.RECNAME = R.RECNAME;

I hope this helps.

PeopleTools 8.50 Update

I just noticed the other day that Oracle has a planned PeopleTools 8.50 release date.  According to Doc ID 813258.1, the date is 9/18/2009!

In addition, here are a few more links I found of people who are talking about it:

• Peopletools 8.50: The Wow-effect — This is what has me excited about it
• A PeopleSoft Administrator’s perspective on the PeopleTools 8.50 RVP
• Several people pointed to this SWF Demo (Wow-effect again, PeopleTools 8.50 Overview)
• PeopleTools 8.50 Roadmap links to the PeopleTools RVP and Enterprise Portal RVP (both require Metalink Logins)
• Oracle PeopleSoft Enterprise PeopleTools 8.50
• What’s In PeopleTools 8.50

Great Link: Handling ^M

When working in a mixed environment, you are bound to run into those ^M characters at the end of your lines at some point.  Here is a great link describing how to fix it.  They talk about vi, but gVim works the same way.

AutoLogin GreaseMonkey Script

Here is a GreaseMonkey Script that changes the languages options on the PeopleSoft login page to users’ names.  When you click on the user’s name, it populates the username and password.  It is great for when you are testing Workflow or something like that.

PeopleSoft Templates

A while back, I posted my idea that Oracle should deliver templates or appliances with PeopleSoft pre-installed.  I feel bad that I did not get it posted as soon as I noticed that Oracle did finally publish such an image.

But, they appear to have removed the images.  I can’t find them.  I found on a cached page that shows where they have the image available.  I am terribly behind on reading the blogs — maybe  there will be some clues there.

I also did some looking around to see about using such an image.  My problem is that I already have VMWare installed.  Can I install Oracle VM along side?  Even if it is possible, it is advisable?

I looked into converting an Oracle VM image into a VMWare image.  I found a post asking about doing just that, but it had no answer.  VMWare has a Converter and vCenter that will convert machines into VMWare images, but they don’t talk about working with Oracle VM images.  Here is another page of tools, but none of them stood out as options.  Oracle has some tools too, but I don’t think they will do the trick either.

Any Interest in Program?

I have been tinkering around with a little Java application I started for running queries against a PeopleSoft database.  I was just curious if there was any interest in such an application.  Here is a screenshot of what I have so far:

So far the program connects to SQL Server databases and Apache Databases.  It runs queries and loads the data into the JTable at the bottom.

I have a SQL “preprocessor” that evaluates the SQL right before it passes it to the database.  Currently, the only thing it does is to pull the semi-colon off of the end.  But, I plan to have it resolve meta-sql such as %Table() and %CurrentDateIn, etc.

Also, I would like to build SQL tools in that understand the SQL syntax.  I would like tools that automatically generate effective date criteria.  Another feature would be nice to have where it would join a table into a SQL statement.

Agile Development Links

MyOraclePortal published a couple of links to interesting videos.  Check out the page there:

Agile Development

I thought the videos were very well done.

What I am curious about is anyone’s experience in using Agile Development with PeopleSoft.  Has anyone tried to use this development style on a PeopleSoft project?

I was involved in a project that attempted something similar.  It was not successful, but I don’t believe it was because of the agile development.  A number of things could be blamed such as a lack of automated testing, limited involvement during the end-user testing, too long of a duration between iterations, and users requesting more of PeopleSoft than it was designed to do.  Also, the company was bought out by a larger company before the project was completed and I think they wanted to go another direction.

COBOL Compile Error

In an attempt to draw more attention to an error, let me copy a comment here.  If you have any ideas on what ps_rookie should do, please comment here.

I suggested taking the dash out of the compile directory, and he said that did not make a difference.

Below is the comment:

Hi DE,

I am trying to Install COBOL for my HCM 9.0 Installation. I have downloaded and installaed the Net Express Cobol Comipler and now I am doing the exact same steps as you have discussed above. I am getting the Object Compiling Error. Pasted below.
