• Error ORA-00932: inconsistent data types

  Hello world
  
  I'm having a small problem with the error ORA-00932: inconsistent data types. The code below is what I'm working on. The error is on line 12:
  "vStmt: = ' select DDH_HOST_NM, DDH_SCHEMA_NR from ' | '. vSchema |'. < table > @ < DB_LINK > '; ». This is because DDH_HOST_NM is a VARCHAR2 and DDH_SCHEMA_NR a number.
  
  I know what is the error and where it is but I can't work on how to solve this problem. I tried to use to_char on DDH_SCHEMA_NR but that does not.
  
  Anyone have an idea how I can fix this problem?
  
  Thank you
  N.S.N.O.
  
  DECLARE
  vSchema varchar2 (1000);
  vStmt varchar2 (1000);
  Version number (38);
  CURSOR c_schemas IS
  Select "< SCHEMA-NAME >" as "< scheme name >" twice;
  BEGIN
  Open c_schemas;
  LOOP
  SEEK c_schemas INTO vSchema;
  EXIT WHEN c_schemas % NOTFOUND;
  vStmt: = ' select DDH_HOST_NM, DDH_SCHEMA_NR from ' | vSchema |'. < table > @ < DB_LINK > ';
  Run immediately vStmt in version;
  dbms_output.put_line(vSchema||) e '|| Version);
  END LOOP;
  CLOSE C_schemas;
  END;

  The problem is that you choose 2 columns in a single variable?

  vStmt: = ' select DDH_HOST_NM, DDH_SCHEMA_NR from ' | vSchema |'.

  @';
  Run immediately vStmt in version ;

  This must be either

  vStmt: = ' select DDH_SCHEMA_NR from ' | vSchema |'.

  @';
  Run immediately vStmt in version;

  or

  vStmt: = ' select DDH_HOST_NM, DDH_SCHEMA_NR from ' | vSchema |'.

  @';
  Run immediately vStmt in vHostNm, version;

  where vHostNm should set as a variable too.

  You cannot get the ref cursor in a table like this. Either use a PL/SQL program to extract the lines of ref cursor and display them via dbms_output.put_line (or something) or load the results into a collection and then cast the collection in a table in your select statement.

  Hello
  Feew suggestions
  (1) LONG is an obsolete type so if possible start working on this column change
  (2) CLOB will be your favorite type of data on long.
  (3) you cannot use RTRIM on long.

  Here's a very quick example

  drop table h
  create table h (x long,y varchar2(100))
  select rtrim(x) from h
  select rtrim(y) from h
  

  Solution:
  [http://www.oracle.com/technology/oramag/code/tips2003/052503.html]

  need to better implement the clob data type and

  drop table h
  create table h (x clob,y varchar2(100))
  select  dbms_lob.substr( x, 4000, 1 ) from h
  select rtrim(y) from h
  

  See you soon!

• ORA-00932: inconsistent data types: expected DATE receipt NUMBER to call OIC OCIStmtExecute OBIEE 11g

  Hi friends,

  I get this error: ORA-00932: inconsistent data types: expected DATE got the NUMBER to the call of the OIC OCIStmtExecute when I'm putting the filter on the date column condition.

  "Sun Time". " Day' < = cast (MAX ("Sun time" "." ")) Date day")) and"Sun Time ". "' Day ' > = TIMESTAMPADD (SQL_TSI_MONTH,-1, cast (MAX ("Sun time".) "Day") as date). "

  I sank the date max, but if I get the above error. I think max (date) creates the problem.

  Please suggest your opinion on that.

  Thank you.

  Thank you for your suggestions.

  I used the variable, and it helped.

  "Sun Time". " Date' <= valueof(maxdate)="" and="" "dim-time"."date"="">= TIMESTAMPADD (SQL_TSI_MONTH-1, VALUEOF (Maxdate))

• pl/sql appellant java class member function obtains ora-00932 in 11g.

  Call a member function of class of java from a pl/sql script, I get an error ora-00932.

  ORA-00932: inconsistent data types: waiting for an IN argument in position 1 which is an instance of an O

  convertible to an instance of a user defined class Java got a type of Oracle that could not be converted

  The code works fine when the java function is declared static.   However, since there could be thousands of users hitting the function at the same time and there is no instance of the object, I wasn't sure if it would be a matter of how oracle manages memory for each user in a session, if it would not be a problem, I can go forward with this approach.   However, I have greatly simplified this for an example that reproduces the problem.

  Create the oracle type:

  CREATE OR REPLACE TYPE MyObject AS OBJECT

  (

  col1Data VARCHAR2 (10),

  MEMBER FUNCTION createData

  RETURN VARCHAR2 AS LANGUAGE JAVA

  NAME "java.lang.String return MyObject.createData ().

  );

  Java code:

  CREATE OR REPLACE AND FIX JAVA SOURCE NAMED 'MyObject' AS

  import java. IO;

  public class MyObject

  {

  private String col1Data;

  public void createData)

  {

  System.out.println ("col1:" + col1Data);

  }

  }

  Java function call vai pl/sql function:

  FUNCTION to CREATE or REPLACE fn_myobject

  (col1 IN varchar2)

  RETURN VARCHAR2

  AS

  p_rc varchar2 (100);

  myObj MyObject;

  BEGIN

  myObj: = new MyObject (col1);

  p_rc: = myObj.createData ();   -This line gets an error 00932

  RETURN p_rc;

  END;

  /

  And finally, the script from sqlplus to test:

  Set serverout

  call dbms_java.set_output (50);

  Set line 120

  declare

  VARCHAR2 (64) RC: = ";

  R1 varchar2 (64): = 'abc ';

  Start

  RC: = fn_myobject (r1);

  end;

  /

  I tried all sorts of things without success.   Any ideas on this would be most appreciated.  It is once again, 11g.

  Thank you.

  MarkF says:

  If you go back to the example code I posted, it is mapping a java class oracle object.

  No, it isn't.

  Your example simply sets an Oracle object type whose member createData function is implemented in Java.

  The fact that the implementing class has the same name does not have a direct mapping between the class and the type of Oracle.

  The important part to read and understand in the link I posted is:

  A call specification outlines the top level of an Oracle database Java method entry point. So, you can publish only public static methods.

  However, there is an exception. You can publish instance methods as members of an SQL object type methods.

  You are in the first case.

  To be in the exceptional cases and be able to publish instance methods, the Java class must implement SQLData.

  See the latest example here:

  https://docs.Oracle.com/database/121/JJDEV/chsix.htm#JJDEV13273

  Adapted to your example:

  CREATE OR REPLACE AND compile JAVA SOURCE NAMED "MyObject" AS
  import java.sql.*;
  
  public class MyClass implements SQLData
  {
    // Implement the attributes and operations for this type.
    private String col1Data;
  
    public String createData ()
    {
        System.out.println ("col1: " + col1Data);
        return col1Data;
    }
  
    // Implement SQLData interface.
    String sql_type;
  
    public String getSQLTypeName() throws SQLException
    {
      return sql_type;
    }
  
    public void readSQL(SQLInput stream, String typeName) throws SQLException
    {
      sql_type = typeName;
      col1Data = stream.readString();
    }
  
    public void writeSQL(SQLOutput stream) throws SQLException
    {
      stream.writeString(col1Data);
    }
  }
  /
  

  CREATE OR REPLACE TYPE MyObject AS OBJECT
  (
    col1Data  VARCHAR2(10),
    MEMBER FUNCTION createData
            RETURN VARCHAR2 AS LANGUAGE JAVA
      NAME 'MyClass.createData() return java.lang.String'
  );
  /
  

  Test:

  SQL> exec dbms_java.set_output(1000)
  
  PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.
  
  SQL> set serverout on
  SQL>
  SQL> select MyObject('ABC').createData() from dual;

  At first Oracle gave me an error because the figures were not a string. Can I convert it to a string (with to_char) and Oracle is still not satisfied! Any ideas as to why this is happening?
  
  Thanks for any help you can provide.

  Suppose you want sth. as

  ...
  OPEN pResultSet FOR 'SELECT ' || pFields || ' FROM '
    || '(SELECT '|| pFields ||', ROW_NUMBER() OVER(ORDER BY '|| pSortField ||') ROW_NUM '
    || 'FROM '|| pTable ||') WHERE ROW_NUM BETWEEN '|| to_char(pPageIndex*pTotalRecs) ||' AND '
    || to_char((pPageIndex+1)*pTotalRecs)  ;
  ...
  

• While the BLOB conversion of type CLOB error - ORA-06502: PL/SQL: digital error or value

  Passing data from attachment of DB (Blob data Type) after the CLOB data type conversion, giving the error "ORA-06502: PL/SQL: digital error or value" in the PL/SQL package. If the BLOB size 32K > it will give another error works great my procedure.

  For example, I enclose my code here.

  function get_base64 (p_blob_in in blob) return clob is

  CLOB v_clob;

  CLOB v_result;

  whole v_offset;

  v_chunk_size PLS_INTEGER: = 12288;

  v_buffer_varchar varchar2 (32767).

  v_buffer_raw raw (32767).

  Start

  fnd_file.put_line (fnd_file.log, 'here');

  If p_blob_in is null then

  Returns a null value.

  end if;

  DBMS_LOB.CREATETEMPORARY (v_clob, true);

  fnd_file.put_line (fnd_file.log, 'here1');

  v_offset: = 1;

  fnd_file.put_line (fnd_file.log, 'Loop value'-| ceil (DBMS_LOB.) GetLength (p_blob_in) / v_chunk_size));

  because me in 1... ceil (DBMS_LOB. GetLength (p_blob_in) / v_chunk_size) loop

  DBMS_LOB. Read (p_blob_in, v_chunk_size, v_offset, v_buffer_raw);

  v_buffer_raw: = utl_encode.base64_encode (v_buffer_raw);

  v_buffer_varchar: = utl_raw.cast_to_varchar2 (v_buffer_raw);

  DBMS_LOB. WriteAppend (v_clob, length (v_buffer_varchar), v_buffer_varchar);

  v_offset: = v_offset + v_chunk_size;

  end loop;

  fnd_file.put_line (fnd_file.log, 'Out of the loop');

  v_result: = v_clob;

  fnd_file.put_line (fnd_file.log, 'V_result length' - |) DBMS_LOB. GetLength (v_result));

  fnd_file.put_line (fnd_file.log, 'V_result' - | v_result);

  DBMS_LOB.freeTemporary (v_clob);

  Return v_result;

  exception

  while others then

  fnd_file.put_line (fnd_file.log, 'Error based on the encode_base64' - |) SQLERRM);

  Returns a null value.

  end;

  In my main program I call this function as below:

  Main proceedings...

  l_return_clob CLOB.

  Begin

  ....

  l_return_clob: = get_base64 (p_blob_in);

  -In returning it gives error - ORA-06502: PL/SQL: digital error or value

  end;

  Then, please mark the thread ANSWERED.

  No one can tell you anything. Your track is not the least useful info like what is exported from which program on which system and so on.
