Hard going at the gym

This morning at the gym I had a really hard time of it.  Just could not get motivated.  I slept well, but this morning woke up grumpy.  I think it was down to Jane not being here - she's off to America for a week so I'll be on my own until Wednesday - have to motivate myself!

Part of the problem was that I was 10mins later than normal getting to the gym, and I wanted to be early to work to catch up on the day off I had yesterday.  I probably shouldn't have bothered to be honest, but I only managed about 12mins of cardio work to warm up, and then skipped the hand-bike and rowing machine and moved straight on to the resistance work.

Another reason for feeling quite so lethargic might have been what I ate last night.  Oh dear... I don't really want to record it but I bought two chickens from Sainsburys last night as well as other foods, and I love chicken... there was one left for today's tea, which has been MUCH more balanced.

Let's make up for it tomorrow morning.  I've got nothing to rush for and I should hopefully feel better.

Data pump - "ORA-39786: Number of columns does not match between export and import databases"

Today I was asked if it was possible to import data for a specific table from a data pump export file, which was taken from when a table had a different structure to what it has now. e.g. when the export was taken, there were 10 columns.  Now there are 11. I thought that was simple, and I was sure I'd heard of this being done before.  Simply import using the "CONTENT=DATA_ONLY" parameter.  Right? Apparently not: Centos-/home/oracle/demo> impdp DEMO_USER/yyyyyyy directory=INBOUND dumpfile=demo_data.dmp logfile=impdpdemo.log content=data_only tables=xxxxxxxx Import: Release 10.2.0.4.0 - 64bit Production on Tuesday, 08 July, 2014 14:32:20 Copyright (c) 2003, 2007, Oracle.  All rights reserved.

APEX, SERT, and EPG

APEX, SERT, and EPG Application Express, Security Evaluation and Recommendation Tool, and the Embedded PL/SQL Gateway My organisation has only just started seriously working with APEX and have recently launched our first internal production app (that was a challenge... I was told that this app needed to be in production in 2 days and nobody had bothered to check with me what was needed to make this happen).  I've learned a lot about APEX in the past few weeks and I've got a lot more to go. I recently came across SERT ( https://github.com/OraOpenSource/apex-sert ) and it sounds like a really nifty tool.  Today I found some time to try it out and see if our dev team might find it useful.  I decided to install it in our dev database.  This uses the EPG rather than ORDS. The install didn't go so well.  The first install failed near the end because I think I used a lowercase 'y' for a response somewhere and it got confused, bombing out with an ORA-06502...
