We have a user in our organization who has a recurring, but sporadic and rare, problem of dashboard tabs in Oracle OBIEE 12.2.1.4.0 loading with no data. The tab looks like it loads successfully, but no data displays, either tables or charts. Other tabs on the same dashboard load correctly, data displays, etc. It is not always the same tab, sometimes it is multiple tabs, most times it loads just fine. We are unable to recreate the issue on our end, and his computer has even been replaced, but the issue still happens, though again very sporadically.
He is the only user who seems to have this issue. Our vendor who supplies us with their OBIEE based analytic system has given us some settings tips but not been able to resolve it completely for us. He is currently using Chrome, but reports that he has also used Internet Explorer and gotten the same result.
Has anyone else had this problem?

I'm using a Display Image Item with settings section set to 'BLOB Column returned by SQL statement'.
It shows the image (are big sized) without problems in Chrome, Edge or firefox but on IE it only shows a little black square with an X inside.
Any idea how to fix it?
Support for IE is deprecated since version 20.2, and even before there were features that did not work properly. My advice: don't use IE with Apex, if you can, use always other browsers which are properly supported and work without issues.
Display images might be one of those issues. Starting with Apex 18 this might be due to a problem with IE11 when using the X-Content-Type-Options:nosniff response HTTP header. The images from the display image items are not displayed correctly in IE11 because Apex is not able to define the correct mimetype.
This is reproducible in the case of BLOB Column Return by SQL Statement, which is exactly your case. You can confirm it using the console debug mode.
Notes
6.1.4 Support for Internet Explorer 11: Deprecated Support for Internet Explorer (IE) 11 is deprecated.
Starting with release 20.2, only the current and prior major release
of Microsoft Edge along with Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Apple
Safari will be supported.
Deprecated means you can still use it, but support will ultimately be removed for it. Also as Microsoft has removed IE as its standard browser, replacing it by Edge, it is likely you will always have unexpected behaviour in this browser.
We all know that for security reasons and compatibility with legacy applications, many companies still use IE in order for those applications to work properly. However, using it with Oracle Apex is always a bad idea.
I've been trying to use batch testing to test my luis app and have been experiencing an annoying bug. Basically the LUIS app page will become unresponsive while the batch testing window is open.
The most similar issue I've seen can be found here: LUIS web interface crashed after import JSON file for Batch Testing or Import App, with no answer yet.
My problem is also slightly different by the looks of it.
Experimenting has yielded the following results:
I can upload, test and view the results of 1 batch successfully sometimes. Sometimes the page will become unresponsive while I am looking at the results.
If I have successfully viewed the batch, but then close the batch testing window without deleting the batch, the next time I open the window the whole site will become unresponsive.
Recently opening the "Inspect" tab on the single utterance testing window has also begun making the page unresponsive.
I can submit images if needed, but the pages seem more or less the same after the bug has occurred, they simply stop working. Pressing buttons does nothing and I need to refresh the page if I want to get back to the bot's Dashboard/Build/Publish/Settings page.
The app has 18 intents, 12 entities, and a couple hundred utterances. I have tested it on a collaborator account and the bugs seems to occur there too. Not sure what other info might be relevant.
If anyone has experienced similar issues and can help I'd appreciate it. Being able to use the built in Batch Testing feature would be very useful.
I have been developing a little speed dial page to learn how to work with IndexedDB. It's a locally hosted html page. When I open the page in Firefox, and attempt to inspect the Indexed DB the page creates, in the developer tools (under storage), it doesn't show any Databases. However, the page is successfully able to access and work with the DB (everything is loaded, and saved when the browser is closed). When I try it in Chrome, it shows the DB in the developer tools, and I am able to inspect the entries.
I am using the latest version of FF (56.0), but already had this issue with the previous version (55).
Has anyone else had issues with not being able to see Indexed DBs in Firefox developer tools? Does anyone know how to fix this, or is this a Firefox bug?
The issue seems to have been resolved by a Firefox update. I am now running Version 61.0.2, and I can now see the Indexed DB and all the entries in the developer tools, under Storage.
Resetting of the profile helped me.
I have a Mac desktop application developed using Xamarin.Mac and XCode. The application is loading views that should have a considerable amount of content as blank/white screens for a select few end users. While I've not been able to reproduce the issue locally and it doesn't appear to be impacting many people, it does happen consistently for a handful of users(6 out of over 4,000 at the moment). The app works just fine for the vast majority and uses a main window controller that sets the content view as needed by calling the applicable ViewController. When the views in question are loaded for the given users, it renders as a blank white area.
I did notice however that at least some of the objects in the views are actually there, just not visible. For instance, one view has buttons that are still "there" as you can click on them if you know where they are supposed to be positioned(and they also fire correctly) but they are not actually visible as the area is all white with no visible content. It's as if everything is loading properly but the UI just isn't cooperating in displaying objects that are actually there. The closest thing I could find was this Diagnosing run loop issue (partially frozen UI) in Cocoa application
However I'm not sure it's the same problem and there was no resolution for that either. Has anyone else ever encountered something like this?
Ok, got some new info. After doing a remote session with a user we had no luck with the hardware and the console didn't provide much insight, however we did stumble across a workaround that fixes the issue and may give some clues as to the real problem.
When the application is initially installed, we prompt the user to ask if they want it moved to the default Applications directory. They do not have to move it as it will work the same from pretty much anywhere but we do this for convenience. For the users having this problem, we noticed that they all had the app installed in the Applications folder. By sheer luck, one user accidentally chose to not move the app after reinstalling it per our support team. When the app was installed in his default Downloads directory, the problem vanished and the app worked as expected.
After testing various other directory locations(Downloads, Documents, etc.) we found that the issue only seemed to exist if the app was installed in the Applications directory. Furthermore, if the app was installed in the Applications directory, we could simply move it or copy/paste it to another directory outside Applications and when launching it from that new location the issue was resolved.
Seems like there is something specific to the default Applications directory that is causing this to happen(as odd as that sounds). Keep in mind that even when the app is installed in the Applications directory, this issue only happens to 7 people out of over 4,000.
Any ideas as to what might be special about that directory that could explain what we're seeing?
I'm getting logged out of all Google services a set period after opening the browser or logging in, it's about 20 minutes, maybe less. Occasionally the log in page will automatically redirect to a "clear cache and cookies" help page, however following the instructions on this page changes nothing and a short time later it logs me out again. This is particularly annoying when writing a response to a review on the Google Play Developer Console, because as soon as it detects being logged out it greys the text box so that it's not possible to copy and paste the message and it is not saved as a draft, it has to be written again. It's important to note this happens regardless of the browser being used and regardless of whether or not you are logged in on multiple devices. This is something Google really need to fix. Has anyone else suffered these problems?
It appears I've found a solution, as an Android app developer I always have a bunch of tabs open such as Google Play Developer Console for reviews and statistics and Google Wallet for financial reports. It turns out the problem is related to Google Wallet because if I close this tab, it won't log me out of all Google services. It appears this is a bug with the Google Wallet service. So to clarify this is a bug with Google Wallet, so if you're experiencing this problem like me, always close this tab after viewing the reports (the one launched from the Play console under financial reports).
