The code below gives me error of missing right parenthesis. can someone help me understand the error code. Thank you.

SELECT * FROM CIRC.DRAW_TYPE A
WHERE A.CITY_CODE IN CASE WHEN :Rnzip='WithZip' THEN   ('46301', '46302') ELSE  A.CITY_CODE END

You can try this.

SELECT *
  FROM CIRC.DRAW_TYPE A
 WHERE (A.CITY_CODE = decode(:Rnzip,'WithZip','46301',A.CITY_CODE))
    Or (A.CITY_CODE = decode(:Rnzip,'WithZip','46302',A.CITY_CODE))

ORA-00906 missing left parenthesis
Hello

I get "ORA-00906 missing opening parenthesis" error during the creation of the foreign key on the short-term in the table t_friends column.

You forgot to put the column in parentheses.

Missing right parenthesis when you use the CONTAINS function
Hello

The following sql causes the error "missing right parenthesis. Its a search engine simple execution of PHP that dynamically adds each keyword to a connection variable. This works fine if I use only 1 keyword, but as soon as others are added, I get the error.

Here's the SQL echo:
```
SELECT SCORE(1), TITLE FROM MYTABLE WHERE CONTAINS(TITLE, :1 AND :2, 1) > 0 ORDER BY SCORE(1), TITLE ASC
```
My 1st thought was contains it seeks single quote so I tried the following combinations:
```
 CONTAINS(TITLE, ':1' AND ':2', 1) > 0
 CONTAINS(TITLE, ':1 AND :2', 1) > 0
```
Both through the crossover so maybe its nothing to do with citations. I also tried to use single quotes when concatinating the sql in PHP. No joy :(
CONTAINS the second parameter is a string, so you should concatenate your variables of two link with the chain AND:

CONTAINS (TITLE,: 1 |) ' AND ' | (: 2, 1) > 0

Missing right parenthesis

Hi all
Im trying to insert these results to my table of facts (fact_apartments) with the following:
INSERT INTO fact_apartments (avg_price, segmentid, projectid)
SELECT (AVG (Price), segmentid, projectid)
OF projetou
WHERE projectid = '1';
but the return with the missing closing parenthesis, it could not know what the problem

I don't know why you get this error, probably because you have other errors.

you will need a group on your query. FOR EXAMPLE

INSERT INTO fact_apartments (avg_price, segmentid, projectid)

SELECT AVG (Price), segmentid, projectid

OF projetou

WHERE projectid = '1'

GROUP BY segmentid, projectid;

ORA-00907 is missing a closing parenthesis in the value
Hi all

I am writing code for a table, the value type, but is ORA-00907 missing right parenthesis at the opening of the LOV in the window to submit competing demand.
The internal code of the defined value is as follows:

Table:_ gl_ledgers_public_all_v gl, gl_ledgers lg, gl_ledger_configurations lc

Columns in the table:_
Value: gl.name
ID: gl.ledger_id

Où :_
```
WHERE gl.ledger_id = lg.ledger_id 
      AND lg.configuration_id = lc.configuration_id 
      AND :$FLEX$.FND_MO_REPORTING_LEVEL='1000'
UNION ALL
SELECT name, organization_id
   FROM hr_operating_units
   WHERE :$FLEX$.FND_MO_REPORTING_LEVEL='3000'
```
Where FND_MO_REPORTING_LEVEL is a value which returns Char and is used by a previous setting.

I looked around for the triggers of this error (misuse apostrophes, questions of subquery...) but nothing in my case. Can someone check to see what could be the cause of this error? Thanks in advance.
Oops!
It looks like we can't use UNION / GROUP BY / SEEN in value sets' where clause article, as it implecitly by adding parentheses.
Of http://docs.oracle.com/cd/A60725_05/pdf/flex.pdf

Special treatment for WHERE the Clauses
Behind the scenes, the flexfield adds one and... clause in the WHERE clause that you set for your table validated set of values.
If your WHERE clause contains a RC, then the seal in the annex AND clause may not apply to your WHERE clause integer (without the brackets).
and could not get the desired result.
Then, flexfields put implicitly parentheses around your WHERE clause.

http://docs.Oracle.com/CD/A60725_05/HTML/comnls/us/FND/fndffm03.htm

Of http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E18727_01/doc.121/e12892/T354897T361276.htm
You can create a view with the UNION and use it in the set of values.
(Or) you will need to have an internal selection in the field of the table itself.

ORA-00907: lack of right parenthesis

Hi all
on 11.2.0.4 on Win 2008
When executing:
Select creele, TRUNC ((creele, 'DD')) of loans;
I get:
ORA-00907: missing a closing parenthesis (on column 28).
Any idea?
Let's see creele format:
Select creele loans;
CREELE
--------
10/11/14
21/10/14
Thank you.

Can you tell me please why column A and B have different results:

Select trunc (AVG (trunc(rendule,'DD')-trunc(creele+1,'DD')), 2) A.

TRUNC (AVG (trunc(rendule,'DD')-trunc(creele,'DD') + 1), (2) B

details, loans

WHERE details.emprunt = emprunts.numero

and borrowing. NUMBER = dΘtails. LOAN

AND details.rendule is not null

GROUP Member;

Because you say to do different things. Suppose that there is just a line in your table, with a rendule of 30/04/2015 and a creele from 20/04/2015.

A = 30/04/2015 - (20/04/2015 + 1) = 30/04/2015 - 21/04/2015 = 9

B = 30/04/2015-4/20/2015 + 1 = 10 + 1 = 11

If you want to arithmetic operations to be performed in a particular order, it is best to use parentheses to make the order without ambiguity. This would return the same value as the A (if that's what you want):

TRUNC (AVG (trunc(rendule,'DD') - (TRUNC(creele,'DD') + 1)), 2).

Problem with right parenthesis.

Hello
I'm trying to do something simple, and it doesn't.
During an attempt which:

declare 
solde number;
journal varchar2(2);
dossier varchar2(12);
begin
journal:='21';
dossier:='1707029205';
execute immediate 'select sum(a.debi)-sum(a.cred)
into solde
from auxiloc a,
  dossier d,
  client c
where d.clie =c.code
and a.doss in (select o.code from dossier o where o.clie=c.code )
and a.cmpt   =4111
and a.xdate <=
  (select dar2 from qt:1 where doss=d.code
  )
and d.jqt =:2
and d.code=:3' using journal,journal,dossier;
end;

I get a "missing right parenthesis" on line 8, which is the line with immediate execution.
Obviously, there is no missing brackets, I am must be missing something, but what?

The query such as:

select sum(a.debi)-sum(a.cred)
--into solde
from auxiloc a,
  dossier d,
  client c
where d.clie =c.code
and a.doss in (select o.code from dossier o where o.clie=c.code )
and a.cmpt   =4111
and a.xdate <=
  (select dar2 from qt21 where doss=d.code
  )
and d.jqt =21
and d.code=1707029205;

works without a hitch...

clues?

Don't look for the error of "in" first time.
You must move the "in" out of the sql string.

execute immediate 'select ...' into solde using ....

Pointers would be welcome. I know I could get the DDL using exp/imp, but I'd like to understand why I get the error of missing parenthesis.

see you soon,

SELECT DBMS_METADATA. GET_DDL (REPLACE(object_type,' ','_') AS object_type, object_name) FROM user_objects WHERE object_type NOT IN

You don't need an alias here. Getting rid of the "as long as object_type' and it should work.

ORA-00907 - "lack the right parenthesis.

Hello
I am trying to create a procedure to add table scores each month. This is my code:
create or replace procedure add_partitions
as
v_partition all_tab_partitions.partition_name%type;
v_limit varchar2 (50);
LONG v_sql;
Start
Select to_char (trunc (add_months(sysdate,1), 'MM'), 'Mon_YYYY')
in v_partition
Double; -napr. 072014
Select to_char (trunc (add_months(sysdate,2), 'MM'), 'DD-MM-YYYY')
in v_limit
Double; -napr. 08/01/2014
v_sql: = ' ALTER TABLE CENTRUMADMIN. AUD$ _BACKUP ADD PARTITION '. v_partition | «VALUES LESS THAN (' |)» v_limit | ') tablespace BACKUP_AUDIT';
immediately run v_sql;
end;
/
The procedure is compiled without errors, but when I run it I get this error:
ORA-00907 - "lack the right parenthesis.
After some tests, I am sure that this problem is here: VALUES LESS THAN (' | v_limit |) (')... but I'cant understand whats wrong
Any ideas? Thanks in advance

Hi Mika,

Try

VALUES LESS THAN ("' | v_limit |) (') - three times - 2 gives you a ' in your statement - the 3rd chain delimited

ORA-00907: lack the right parenthesis when using Group by clause with xmlagg

I have the following query and I am getting ORA-00907 error when I use the clause with the xmlagg function group.

select xmlelement("Mitigation",
                xmlelement("m_szMethodName",tm.DisplayName),
                xmlelement("SubstanceInterferenceProtocolList",
                            (select xmlagg(xmlelement("MitigationProtocol",
                                    xmlelement("m_szMethodName",tm.DisplayName),
                                    xmlelement("m_szInterferenceProtocolName",tmp.protocol_name),
                                    xmlelement("m_szInterferenceSubstance",tmp.intf_mtrl_prod_code),
                                    xmlelement("m_ProtocolParameters",
                                        xmlelement("m_szProtocolName",tmp.protocol_name),
                                            xmlelement("m_Consumables",
                                                xmlelement("Consumable",
                                                    xmlelement("m_szConsumId", xrl.rgnt_pack_name),
                                                    xmlelement("m_szProductCode",xrl.pack_prod_code),
                                                    xmlelement("m_nVolume",tmp.fluid_vol),
                                                    xmlelement("m_szProtocolStep",xps.protocol_step_name))),
                                                xmlelement("m_ProtParamList",
                                                    xmlagg(

                                                        xmlelement("m_Time",xpsd.parameter_ntime_value))
                                                    group by tmp.ccd_test_id,tmp.intf_mtrl_prod_code)
                )))
                order by tmp.ccd_test_id, tmp.intf_mtrl_prod_code, xps.protocol_step_intprotocolstep )
                from XPR_tdef_mitigation_protocol tmp, xp_reagentlist xrl,
                xpr_protocol_settings xps, xpr_protocol_settings_default xpsd
                where tmp.ccd_test_id = tm.ccd_test_id
                and tmp.ccd_test_id = xrl.ccd_test_id
                and tmp.pack_prod_code = xrl.pack_prod_code
                and tmp.intf_type = 1
                and xps.protocol_name = xpsd.protocol_name
                and xps.protocol_step_name = xpsd.protocol_step_name
                and xps.ps_action_parameterlist = xpsd.ps_action_parameterlist
                and xps.protocol_name =  tmp.PROTOCOL_NAME
                )))
from XPtoXPRTdef_defn_mapping tm
where tm.DisplayName = 'SYPH'

If I remove the clause xmlagg and the group by clause, the query works well and not give me the result.
But in this code XML, the output format is incorrect for my application.

Could someone help out here?

Now my problem is that this unique coating is more than 32767 characters and utl_file can write 32767 bytes per line.
Someone deal with this?

Serialize the output as CLOB and DBMS_XSLPROCESSOR.clob2file procedure used to write to a file:

DECLARE
  xml_output CLOB;
BEGIN
  SELECT XMLElement("Department",
           XMLAgg(
             XMLElement("Employee",e.job_id||' '||e.last_name)
             ORDER BY e.last_name
           )
         ).getClobVal() AS "Dept_list"
  INTO xml_output
  FROM hr.employees e
  WHERE e.department_id = 30 OR e.department_id = 40;

  DBMS_XSLPROCESSOR.clob2file(xml_output, 'XML_DIR', 'test.xml');
END;
