Getting ORA-22835: buffer too small for to CHAR CLOB or BLOB to RAW conversion in my ODI interface

Hi all

I am creating an interface ODI as explained below,

I table A column 'Comments' and one other table with column B "No Comment." I create a view as shown below and use it as a source for my interface.

SELECT * FROM WC_EQM_CSAP_FS_TMP WHERE to_char (QUESTION_COMMENT) IN (SELECT NO_COMMENTS FROM WC_EQM_NO_COMMENTS_LIST).

But my interface fails with the error below

ORA-22835: buffer too small for to CHAR CLOB or BLOB to RAW conversion (real: 4108, maximum: 4000)

22835 00000 - "too small buffer tank CLOB or BLOB to RAW conversion (actual: %s, maximum: %s)) '

* Cause: an attempt was made to convert CLOB to CHAR or BLOB to RAW, where

LOB size was larger than the buffer for CHAR and RAW limit types.

Note that the widths are reported in characters if characters length isadds are in effect for the column, other widths are

in bytes.

Here QUESTION_COMMENT is of type CLOB data. NO_COMMENTS is also CLOB data type. The maximum length of the data of QUESTION_COMMENT is also 11710

Please tell us how to solve.

Thank you

Dany

IMHO, it is not good to compare CLOB, can be that it is possible to use the primary key for the comments

Is it QUESTION_COMMENT and NO_COMMENTS a PRIMARY INDEX,

may be is the best solution to create vacabulary with comments (if it does not exist) and then compare it by id;

You can simply use the left join and check for null in a CASE statement

Try this, but I don't know... as I said before I have no Oracle DB

SELECT INTEGRATION_ID, DATASOURCE_NUM_ID, QUESTIONNAIRE_ID, QUESTION_ID,

CLIENT_ID, SITE_ID, CLIENT_REP, COMMITMENT, ENGAGEMENT_TYPE, TOP_CLIENT_FLG,

INITIAL_PLANNED_DT, REVISED_PLANNED_DT, INTERVIEW_DT, RECEIVED_DT, QUESTION_SCORE,

(

CASE WHEN EXISTS (SOME T2.NO_COMMENTS OF WC_EQM_NO_COMMENTS_LIST T2 WHERE DBMS_LOB.COMPARE (TMP.) (QUESTION_COMMENT, T2.NO_COMMENTS) = 0)

THEN NULL

OF OTHER QUESTION_COMMENT

END QUESTION_COMMENT),

(CASE WHEN QUESTION_SCORE<=5 then="" 1="" else="" 0="" end)="">

0 AS QWOCOMMENTS,

CREATED_ON_DT, CHANGED_ON_DT OF WC_EQM_CSAP_FS_TMP as TMP

P.S. does not use TO_CHAR (LOB) there are possible error

    The sni_ar_file_import_blob of source table has the FILE_BLOB column as blob data type. The data inside the tab delimeted and as we can see above the limit.

    Is anyone know anything how to get this data and select as stated above?

  • ORA-24331: buffer too small user

    Hello
    Passage of 9 to 10g Oracle, you get "ORA-24331: buffer too small user" to read the values of files using xslprocessor xml text node.
    Anything over 4 k gives this error.
    Any ideas anyone?
    Thanks in advance.

    Bingo. Behavior of the function xslprocessor.valueof in 10g amended such that it has a size limit of 4 k node (Metalink 444621.1)

    The ORA-24331 comes internally change to the function.

    The valueof procedure doesn't have the same restrictions as the function.

    Or, replace all references to operate at the reference procedure or create your own function to encapsulate a call to the procedure and to call this function instead.

    END;
    END;

    Well, it depends on the definition of klasius_srv % RowType - like that the members of the structure (columns/fields) is used by dbms_xslprocessor. ValueOf() to write values in.

    To find this error, you will need to determine the size of a member in this structure and the size of the value being written inside.

    The error occurs in one (or more) of the following statements in your code:

    ..
        dbms_xslprocessor.valueOf(l_n,'code_x0020_ra',t_tab(t_tab.last).srv);
        dbms_xslprocessor.valueOf(l_n,'code_x0020_kat',t_tab(t_tab.last).sif_srv);
        dbms_xslprocessor.valueOf(l_n,'Des',t_tab(t_tab.last).de_srv);
        dbms_xslprocessor.valueOf(l_n,'Deskriptor_x0020__x0028_ang_x0029_',t_tab(t_tab.last).ang_srv);
    ..
    

    Thus, for example: what is the size of the of (description?) writing XML element in the .de_srv t_tab (t_tab.last) - in other words, in the de_srv of the klasius_srv table column?

    If this XML element is 200 characters and your database column is a 100 bytes in size, then dbms_xslprocessor. ValueOf() won't be able to write the value of the XML element in that column variable.

    Bottom line - you must debug 4 statements above of the source code you wrote - and ensure that the amount of data that you read from the XML element can be written in the variable (column) that is used to receive this value.

    The 4000 bytes, I mentioned is the largest size of column varchar2 (string), you can set in the SQL engine. If this XML value is 1 KB, then you cannot use varchar2. In this case, you will need to look at using the CLOB data type instead.

  • Addition of virtual column: ORA-12899: value too large for column

    I am using Oracle 11g, OS Win7, SQL Developer

    I'm trying to add the virtual column to my test table, but get ORA-12899: value too large for column error. Here are the details.
    Can someone help me in this?
    CREATE TABLE test_reg_exp
    (col1 VARCHAR2(100));
    
    INSERT INTO test_reg_exp (col1) VALUES ('ABCD_EFGH');
    INSERT INTO test_reg_exp (col1) VALUES ('ABCDE_ABC');
    INSERT INTO test_reg_exp (col1) VALUES ('WXYZ_ABCD');
    INSERT INTO test_reg_exp (col1) VALUES ('ABCDE_PQRS');
    INSERT INTO test_reg_exp (col1) VALUES ('ABCD_WXYZ');
    ALTER TABLE test_reg_exp
    ADD (col2 VARCHAR2(100) GENERATED ALWAYS AS (REGEXP_REPLACE (col1, '^ABCD[A-Z]*_')));
    
    SQL Error: ORA-12899: value too large for column "COL2" (actual: 100, maximum: 400)
    12899. 00000 -  "value too large for column %s (actual: %s, maximum: %s)"
    *Cause:    An attempt was made to insert or update a column with a value
               which is too wide for the width of the destination column.
               The name of the column is given, along with the actual width
               of the value, and the maximum allowed width of the column.
               Note that widths are reported in characters if character length
               semantics are in effect for the column, otherwise widths are
               reported in bytes.
    *Action:   Examine the SQL statement for correctness.  Check source
               and destination column data types.
               Either make the destination column wider, or use a subset
               of the source column (i.e. use substring).
    When I try to, I get the correct results:
    SELECT col1, (REGEXP_REPLACE (col1, '^ABCD[A-Z]*_'))
    FROM test_reg_exp;
    Thank you.

    Yes, RP, it works if you give col2 size > = 400.

    @Northwest - could you please test the same w/o having a clause of regex in col2?
    I have a doubt about using a REGULAR expression in this case Dynamics col.

    Refer to this (might help) - http://www.oracle-base.com/articles/11g/virtual-columns-11gr1.php
    Below excerpt from above link... see if that helps...
    >
    Notes and restrictions on the virtual columns include:

    The indexes defined on the virtual columns are equivalent to a function-based index.
    Virtual columns can be referenced in the updates and deletions WHERE clause, but they cannot be manipulated by DML.
    The tables containing virtual columns may still be eligible for result caching.
    Functions in expressions must be deterministic when the table is created, but can then be recompiled and non-deterministic without for as much invalidate the virtual column. In such cases, the following steps must be taken after the function is recompiled:
    Constraint on the virtual column must be disabled and re-enabled.
    On the virtual column indexes must be rebuilt.
    Materialized views that access the virtual column must be fully refreshed.
    The result cache must be flushed if the virtual column acceded to the request (s).
    Statistical table must be regathered.
    The virtual columns are not supported for the organized and external object in index, cluster or temporary tables.
    The expression used in the virtual column definition has the following restrictions:
    It cannot refer to another virtual column by name.
    It can refer to the columns defined in the same table.
    If it refers to a deterministic user-defined function, it cannot be used as a partitioning key column.
    The result of the expression must be a scalar value. It cannot return that an Oracle supplied the data type, a type defined by the user, LOB or LONG RAW.

    log_dir              varchar2(100) := get_env('$APPLCSF')||'/log';
    3. This HOST function in turn calls another function of overloaded HOST (code shown above).
    4. in the function overloaded with the HOST, the following statements are executed successfully, and FALSE is returned by the function
    dbms_output.put_line('m=1');
    result_out := 'ERROR : GLCC0005 presumed not running';
    dbms_output.put_line('result_out - '||result_out);
    5. the remaining code in the FTP service is running and the HOST function is called again using the Sub statement
    res := HOST('echo $$',proc_id);
    6.again, this HOST function in turn calls another function of overloaded HOST (code posted above).
    7. this time, in the function overloaded host, ORA-06502 is thrown when the following statement is executed and the execution stops here that this exception is unhandled.
    result_out := 'ERROR : GLCC0005 presumed not running';
    This statement is very successfully in the previous call to the function of HOST (step 4), but it fails now.

    Any idea on why this error occurs in this scenario? Because the issue of memory?

    Hello

    HOST (1) calls the function of MODERATOR (2) with his second parameter as result_out

    The first time you call the function of host (1) in the function get_env you use

    ...
     out varchar2(256);
    BEGIN
      res := HOST('echo '||env,out);
    ...
    

    out is big enough varchar2 (256)

    The second time you call (1) HOST of the FTP function as:

    ...
    ftp_main         varchar2(2000);
    proc_id           varchar2(10);
    fderr             varchar2(100);
    ...
    
    ...
              res := HOST('echo $$',proc_id);
              dbms_output.put_line('proc_id - '||proc_id);
    ...
    

    Here, use you proc_id which is varchar2 (10)

    And it's not big enough!

    Bravo!

    It looks like I can choose only 4000 characters using the SELECT statement (please, correct me if I'm wrong)

    You use the right method.

    There is an implicit conversion from XMLType to the data type VARCHAR2 as expected by the function TO_CLOB, where the limitation, and the error.

    To serialize XMLType to CLOB, use the XMLSerialize function:

    SELECT XMLSerialize (DOCUMENT

    XMLELEMENT ("accounts",

    ...

    )

    )

    OF ANY_TABLE;

    For the rest of the requirement, I wish you good luck trying to spool the XML correctly.

    You may need to play around with the SET LONG and SET LONGCHUNKSIZE commands to operate.

  • error report: ORA - 06502:character too small string buffer. urgent!

    Hi guys,.
    My version of the APEX is 3.0.1.00.08, my application run on my test environment, but on the PROD environment, she raised the error:
    error report:
    ORA-06502: PL/SQL: digital or value error: character string buffer too small

    On this page, on the left is a tree, the right side is a tabular presentation, when I click on a tree node, it will pass the id of the current node to the form and the form shows data from children. When I click on a tree node, it triggers the ORA-06502 error, but when click on some other nodes, it is correct. I don't know why. And on my test environment, it does not have this error, the test environment has same version with the prod environment, has only less data in the database. Could you help me?
    I searched in the forum, someone said it's LOV problem, if there is problem LOV, all nodes must have the error, why click on some nodes are ok?

    Thank you!

    Jessica

    I don't know, but why do you need a semicolon at the end of the SQL?

    Thanks and greetings

    Guru

    Now if you followed this link, so I hope that you:

    (a) set the attribute of the object type to be a CLOB

    (b) sets the return value of your Mapper function to be a CLOB

    and not as in the example (which is the time before the existence of LISTAGG) as a Varchar2...

    REDA

    The error message should include a line number to reference your code to see what line the error occurred on.

    That said, look at the documentation for SUBSTR as you incorrectly use the third parm.  It's length, no end of race.  That's your problem.

  • problem string buffer too small

    Hey, guys:

    I have a question may be stupid, I received the error "ORA-06502: PL/SQL: digital or value error: character string buffer too small" when I run a query. If I Uncomment ' and rox.status ='Active "" ' State, I do not have the error. I guess it's related to specific lines. I checked online, it looks like the length of a certain variable varchar2 is not enough, but I can't find cause. I also note that there could be an error on v_level in the function, I use number instead of type varchar2. but after I changed the type of v_level, the error is still there. I would be cautious, because this is a legacy system. Could someone help me on this problem?

    I have a query like this:
    select *

    I do not pretend that it is your problem, but

    select status
    into v_status,
    from registration_offender_xref 
    

    But you said

          v_status  varchar2(10);
    

    Much better to say things like that

          v_status  registration_offender_xref.status%type;
    

    In this way, you know that your variable is declared with a good length, if the length of the column never changes, your code won't kaboom.

    See you soon,.

  • PL/SQL: digital or value error: string buffer too small characters - LOV?

    Environment:

    APEX 3.1.1.00.09 under AIX 5.3 10.2.0.2 in

    Problem sample on apex.oracle.com:

    Workspace: GALWAY
    ID: GWICKE
    Password: GWICKE

    Application ID: 43172 (BUILDERPL) NOTE: there are three 3 applications with the same name, but this one is currently broken

    I get the dreaded "" ORA-06502: PL/SQL: digital or value error: character string buffer too small "when you try to create a new line."

    To reproduce the error:

    1 run page 3
    2 - Select any agency
    3 - Click on the button "create a new contract.
    4 - Select the start and end dates in the DATE picker
    5 - Click on the button "Add contract".

    If the line is added successfully if please go to Indianapolis and run the app for me since you obviously have the 'touch '! ;-) >

    But seriously folks,

    I've read many threads about this error and for the most part, they seem to point to large LOV. I have three 3 LOV on the page but only a 1 is dynamic and display and back elements are the same, a description in this case. There are 400 lines in the LOV table and the description is defined as VARCHAR2 (75), so we're not talking a huge amount of data.

    To further complicate the issue, this application was working just a couple of days. What changes I've made since a few days, you might ask?

    The only thing that comes to mind is I did go through the definitions of element and change the values of maximum size equal to the size of the columns in the target table, using a value of 22 for the NUMBER of columns.

    Since then I went back and changed at a much greater value than their corresponding column definitions, but nothing helped.

    Another interesting fact is that if an existing contract is selected on the page (Page 3 in my case) by selecting an agency that produces values in the second select list (selection of contract) and then clicking on "change this contract." After you change any value or fill in one of the missing values, click "Apply Changes" and he should have success.

    The new contract page and the page of modification of the contract are the same (Page 2) just with different buttons.

    Thanks a lot for any assistance. Indeed, it is greatly appreciated.

    -gary

    PS I also tried to change the LOV both given a popup and a standard text box I typed in, both received the same message.

    Gary - I deleted then recreated your DML process and it seems to have solved the problem. Export page reveals something odd in the process definition:

    declare  p varchar2(32767) := null;  l_clob clob;  l_length number := 1;beginp:=p||'F|#OWNER#:BUILDERPL_CONTRACT:P2_CONTRACT_SEQ:CONTRACT_SEQ|I';
    
    wwv_flow_api.create_page_process( ...
    

    That the assignment statement must not have ' F | "as the first two characters. There must be a bug in one of the wizards who created the process. Have you used a wizard to create the page?

    I am able to solve the problem by referring to the link below:

    Huge selection box fails...

    What I am able to solve without even changing the item type. Things are working fine now, but it would be really helpful if someone could give me their expert commentary on the solution above.

    Is this feasible? I'll be able to solve the problem forever, or it will cause problems again in the future?
