Integrity constraint: key to Parent not found

• key to parent not found

  I created two tables describing the main keys and others with foreign key
  
  Here's my parent and child tables

  CREATE TABLE STUDENT("FIRST NAME"  VARCHAR2(15) NOT NULL,
                       "LAST NAME"  VARCHAR2(15) NOT NULL,
                       ADDRESS VARCHAR2(35),
                       EMAIL VARCHAR2(20),
                       PHONE NUMBER(11),
                       "FATHER NAME" VARCHAR2(15),
                       "FACULTY ID" NUMBER(4),
                       "STUDENT ADVISER"  NUMBER(4) NOT NULL,
                       "COLLEGE ID" NUMBER(4),
                       RNO NUMBER(4) NOT NULL,
                       YEAR NUMBER(4) NOT NULL,
                       BRANCH VARCHAR2(10),
  CONSTRAINT UK_STUDENT UNIQUE(RNO),
  CONSTRAINT PK_STUDENT PRIMARY KEY("COLLEGE ID","FACULTY ID")
  );
  
  CREATE TABLE TEACHER("FACULTY ID" NUMBER(4),
                       "FIRST NAME" VARCHAR2(15),
                       "COLLEGE ID" NUMBER(4),
                       "LAST NAME" VARCHAR2(15),
                       ADDRESS VARCHAR2(30),
                       QUALIFICATION VARCHAR2(15),
                       EXPERIENCE NUMBER(4),
                       "SUBJECT SPECIALIZATION" VARCHAR2(15),
                       CONSTRAINTS FK_TEACHER FOREIGN KEY("FACULTY ID","COLLEGE ID")
                       REFERENCES STUDENT("FACULTY ID","COLLEGE ID")
  );

  But when I try to insert into the child table I get the error "key of parent not found.

  SQL> INSERT INTO TEACHER VALUES(10,'MALATHI',1,'S','2-4/5,LANGERHOUZ','M.TECH',4,'STUDENT ADVISER');
  INSERT INTO TEACHER VALUES(10,'MALATHI',1,'S','2-4/5,LANGERHOUZ','M.TECH',4,'STUDENT ADVISER')

  ERROR at line 1:
  ORA-02291: integrity constraint (SCOTT.FK_TEACHER) violated - parent key not found

  can someone explain to me why this happens

  >
  ERROR on line 1:
  ORA-02291: integrity constraint (SCOTT. FK_TEACHER) violated - key parent not found
  >

  You get this error because the table of the teacher refers to the student table.

  have you noticed this?

  CONSTRAINTS FK_TEACHER FOREIGN KEY("FACULTY ID","COLLEGE ID")
                       REFERENCES STUDENT("FACULTY ID","COLLEGE ID")
  

  So you cannot insert a record into the teacher table unless there is a record in the student table that has the same faculty_id and college_id

  For example, if you insert a record into the table of student with faculty_id = 10 and college_id = 1, then only you can insert a record into the table of teaching with faculty_id = 10 and college_id = 1.

• Key to parent not found error

  Hello
  I created the following 2 tables
  

  create table cruise_orders
  (cruise_order_id number,
  order_date date,
  constraint pk_co primary key (cruise_order_id, order_date));
  
  create table order_returns (
  order_return_id number,
  cruise_order_id number,
  cruise_order_date date,
  constraint pk_or primary key (order_return_id),
  constraint fk_or_co foreign key
  ( cruise_order_id,cruise_order_date )
   references cruise_orders (cruise_order_id , order_date))

  And I inserted 2 records in the cruise_orders table

  insert into cruise_orders values(1,sysdate) 
  insert into cruise_orders values(2,sysdate) 

  SQL> select *from cruise_orders;
  
  CRUISE_ORDER_ID ORDER_DAT

                2 27-JUL-11

  And I tried to insert the records in the order_returns table
  But get the parent key not found error... If the record exists in the parent table
  

  SQL> insert into order_returns values(1,1,sysdate);
  insert into order_returns values(1,1,sysdate)

  Guide me where I am wrong.
  
  Thank you

  It is the side effect of use sysdate which includes part of the time as well.

  At time T1 you insert records in the primary table.
  The time T2 you insert the record in the secondary table.

  Even if the date is the same, the time is not. As a result, you get the error.

  SQL> insert into cruise_orders values(1,sysdate);
  
  1 row created.
  
  SQL> insert into cruise_orders values(2,sysdate);
  
  1 row created.
  
  SQL> alter session set nls_date_format = 'dd-mon-yyyy hh24:mi:ss';
  
  Session altered.

                2 27-jul-2011 10:31:57
  

  To avoid this, use the date without time portion:

  SQL> delete cruise_orders;
  
  2 rows deleted.
  
  SQL> insert into cruise_orders values(1,trunc(sysdate));
  
  1 row created.
  
  SQL> insert into cruise_orders values(2,trunc(sysdate));
  
  1 row created.
  
  SQL> select *from cruise_orders;
  
  CRUISE_ORDER_ID ORDER_DATE

                2 27-jul-2011 00:00:00
  
  SQL> insert into order_returns values(1,1,trunc(sysdate));

  Dear gurus, I hope someone can help me with my problem.

  My SRM 4.0 Lab:

  • two servers vCenter v.4 + SRM 4.0 + EMC_Celerra_Replicator_SRA

  • two VSA Celerra with replication of work

  • two ESXi 4 servers connected to vCenter Server

  When I am trying to perform a recovery of the Test plan, I got the error 'Array with key as NULL "BB0050569F23260000" not found. "

  I guess it's something with recovery VSA, but cannot move forward, as I am a beginner in storaging.

  I've attached screenshots of the box of diag "Configure storage arrays", maybe this will help.

  Thanks in advance!

  without the hotfix SRA, you must rename your celerra VSA on the two sites do not contain not "-" in their names

  Post edited by: karine

  As Galo indicated Balda, your child table (LEGO. ESTACT) has a folder that does not exist in your table parent (LEGO. ESTOP) and this effect is impossible to create the foreign key.

  You can find the recordings by running:

  select estop_id from LEGO.ESTACT -- CHILD TABLE
  minus
  select estop_id from LEGO.ESTOP -- PARENT TABLE
  

  AFTER BACK YOU UP YOUR DATA, you need to create the new record in the parent table or remove the child table record in order to comply with the foreign key constraint.

• first error: load key not found ERROR 999 (on blue screen...)

  I don't know what I was doing before the crash. But I know that after a reboot, I walked back and saw the following on a BLACK screen:

  No operating system found

  After panic completely, I rebooted and got this:

  On the blue screen: "key of loading not found error 999 (STHIVE =).

  Everything I tried to do since that time is up to us as 1. Memory is intact, 2. Hard drive needs to be replaced.

  I've been it for 15 years, reformatted computers, can hardly pull most problems, if it does not know where to look for answers.  But I've never had a total system crash.  I would like to have more information.

  WHAT I TRIED: recovery of Microsoft: failure |  HP recovery: failed

  I tried both several times.  I went into the bios diagnostics for, and that's when I got the 10008 = hard code it had to be replaced and code 10000 = memory? intact or something like that.

  Please someone... I need at least, recover the files if possible and learn how to replace a hard drive and get one at a great price.  I'm barely making it on the invalidity of the social security (because of Lupus, fibromyalgia, Chronic Fatigue, Addisons, several chronic autoimmune problems).  Some days my only contact with people using a laptop in bed is human.  That's why my sister bought and I would pay for 2 years.  2 years increased in March.  Now his seven and he broke down. Photos, MP3 files, etc., some are saved on flash drives.  Recording to an external hard drive... but alas, never did.

  FYI - I don't have a recovery disc - that I can find.  I ordered a drive recovery Windows Vista from MS yesterday, but if the hard drive is shot, it does not, right?  I also have HP files, for my HP Pavilion Entertainment PC, laptop, dv6736nr model.  Number of files available for download, boot order changed to ensure he'd be first boot CD, but he always comes back "no windows operating system" instead of launching the cd.

  Also - I don't know how to get into the back.  I bought my first computer in 94, post back and therefore never really learned much about it.  I can't do certain things in the BACK?

  Thanking in advance anyone who might help!

  Hello

  First thing to do is to replace the hard drive because apparently there is no. Data currently on the disk can sometimes be recovered by a person with technical knowledge, but you must be willing to pay for the service. It can be quite expensive.

  Running recovery disks will be futile until the above is accomplished. You will find that you will need to replace the memory as well. Maybe your system experienced a power surge?

  There is nothing to do in the BACK like that no longer exists as an underlying layer for the Windows operating system, it expired with WinME 10 years. Vista, XP, Win2K and NT line that they stem, using a command-line environment, but is not BACK and you can load it on a damaged disc. For what it's worth, you wouldn't be able to run the BACK of a hard drive from damage in any case, you'd have to load it from a floppy disk or a disk, and it is inefficient for an OS NT-based modern Windows.

  Thanks for any help.

  Hello

  When Salim said
  "You must insert into the table author, Editor, BookTitle, after that you can insert into the table authors.", I don't know what he meant
  «You must insert in the table of author, Editor, BookTitle * before * you can insert into the table authors.»

  Since BookTitle.PubId is not necessary, you do not have necessarily to insert any object in Publisher.

  In other words, before you can do this:

  INSERT INTO Authorship (AuthorID, BtId) VALUES ('A123', 'B987');
  

  You must already have an author online where AuthorId = "A123", and
  You must already have a line in BookTitle where BtId = "B987.

  Similarly, before you can do this:

  INSERT INTO BookTitle (BkId, PubId) VALUES ('B987', 'P456');
  

  You must already have a line in Publisher where PubId = "P456.

• Integrity constraint not found parent key, insert master and detail records

  Hello world

  I'm creating a master and a detail to record simultaneously, using a managed bean method. I am populating the sequences of db using EL, not database triggers. So:

  (1) Insert main record, the new return ID.

  (2) Insert detail associated with the previous record

  It works well, unless they select a foreign key between the main table and details, so I me "ORA-02291: integrity (XXXX_FK) violated constraint - key not found kinship", as it seems that the book of the child is inserted before the parent.

  I would not disable the FK, but can give you advice on this topic?

• When I try to reinstall Windows XP on my Toshiba laptop, it works until I reboot. Then it says nvrd32.sys not found: press any key to continue.

  original title: NVRD32. SYS ERROR

  When I try to reinstall Windows XP SP3 on my Toshiba laptop, it works until the first reboot. When I boot on CD it comes up saying nvrd32.sys is not found: press any key to continue. When I press a key it is said: the Installer failed. Press a key to restart your computer.

  So, I don't know what to do. I tried searching on google and found a set, but talk of computer that I couldn't begin to understand. Basically, what I consider somewhere or can I fix it myself? I just paid for a new disk of Windows XP SP3, so I'm not looking forward to having to pay someone to use it.

  Hello

  ·         Windows XP came preinstalled on your laptop?

  ·         If so, you have a recovery partition?

  ·         Where did you buy the disc of Windows XP SP3 for?

  nvrd32.sys file is a chipset driver and must be installed via floppy F6 during initial installation.

  Method 1: To do this, follow these steps.

  a. you can download the chipset drivers from Toshiba Web site and copy it to a floppy drive.

  b. press F6 at the start of the installation of Windows XP.

  c. follow the on-screen instructions to install the drivers for the chipset.

  Method 2: You can contact Toshiba to restore to factory on the laptop.
