Apply Error - ORA-00936

I have several of these error messages a day. They appear in the .trc file as follows:
=====================
PARSE ERROR #12:len=83 dep=1 uid=0 oct=7 lid=0 tim=1298603162899498 err=936

error 936 during error queue execution or user function.
*** 2012-02-20 14:27:18.809
ORA-00936: missing expression
=====================
Basically there is a WHERE clause with no specified criteria. Has anyone seen this and know where to start to fix the problem?

Hi,
Execute this statement and re-execute all apply error.
DBMS_APPLY_ADM.SET_PARAMETER(apply_name => '<...>',parameter => '_DYNAMIC_STMTS',value => 'N');

IR Report Search - ORA-20001: get_dbms_sql_cursor error ORA-00936: missing expression

Hi All,
I had created a IR report based on a table and it was working with no issues. But after few days, when I try searching using the IR search bar it shows "ORA-20001: get_dbms_sql_cursor error ORA-00936: missing expression" error message. I don't see any debug messages or errors in the debug window. The Finder drop down is empty too, there are no columns displayed to filter.
When I recreate the IR report(new page) based on the same table, It works fine and there are no issues with the search. But the old IR report search doesnt work. I have not modified the any thing in the old report after initial creation. Report uses Primary key based on a sequence.
What might have caused this issue?
Is there a way to intercept the search query from IR report?
Apex version - 4.2.3.00.08.
Any help on this appreciated.
Thanks,
Jagan

Hi MK, as I had mentioned in my post, I don't see any logs in the debug window, query tab.
Can you please guide me how to check the query logs on search?
Thanks,
Jagan

ERROR: ORACLE prepare error: ORA-00936: missing expression

Hello,
I am required to run "pass-through" Oracle SQL, to extract data from tables into SAS for processing and manipulation. My code (attached) reads and writes (executes) but with zero records to test first. I cannot get past the Prepare Error.
The query is very much like other queries that seem to work, but I cannot get past this prepare error. I have no other access to individauls with adequate knowledge of PL SQL, and as a last stop hoped others in the forum could quickly spot the source of errror.
Thanks very much in advance for any assistance.
Jeff

Hello Again ,
Wish Oracle was a bit more informative. Am using a SAS Institute Product called Enterprise Guide. A "hot fix" was installed to address an issue that the product appears unable to save the latest version of edited code changes (hence " BETWEEN between" remaining even after a prior edit). In any case, with the change, am now receiving this error:
" ERROR: ORACLE prepare error: ORA-00904: "PHRMCY_CLM_FACT"."LAST_SRVC_DT": invalid identifier". (Log file appears below)
-The error remains, regardless of whether one uses "pass through" code to pass the date range to Oracle (which looks ok from the log output below I believe), or if I hard code the date range into the PL SQL query itself.
-The Prepare error always appears at end of the inner SELECT.
-The Prepare error remains, with or without the GROUP BY clause.
Is there anything else here I am missing? Someone suggested a reserve word - but from other ANSI SQL versions, I do not see that is the case. I have consulted SAS Tech Support and SAS List Serve at University of GA. but nothing definitive from these sources. Have requested facility to be able to run Oracle directly, outside this SAS Institute product - in process.
Any suggestions are greatly appreciated. Thanks to everyone very much.
Jeff

Dynamic table in Oracle report data model using laxical parameter is giving error Ora-00936: missing expression

Hi ,
I am using Oracle report 10G
And trying to create report with dynamic table
SELECT &COL1, &COL2
FROM &TAB
If I put this on data model it gives below error
ORA-00936: missing expression
==> from
Can anybody advise to solve this issue.
Regards,
Brajesh

Look in the Reports Builder Help:
If you want to use lexical references in your SELECT clause, you should create a separate lexical reference for each column you will substitute. In addition, you should assign an alias to each lexical reference.
Does adding the column alias solve the problem?

I´m getting these error ORA-00936:missing expression runnig a Task on Info

I´m getting these error ORA-00936: missing expression, when running the SDE_ORA_Reverse_GLJournals task.
I´m setting the variables $$FILTER_BY_LEDGER_ID, $$FILTER_BY_LEDGER_TYPE, $$LEDGER_ID_LIST and $$LEDGER_TYPE_LIST in the DAC correctly. I see the values asigned to those variables in the parameters file( SDE_ORA_Reverse_GLJournals.txt)
But when the task is executing, those values comes empty. Does someone have encountered with the same mistake?
Thanks in advanced.

Hi,
Im finding a similar issue but with task SDE_ORA_GLJournals,
the code is :
AND DECODE(, 'Y', GL.LEDGER_ID, 1) IN ()
AND DECODE(, 'Y', GL.LEDGER_CATEGORY_CODE, 'NONE') IN ()]
the parameters are also fine in the parameters file.
Has anyone found a solution or an explanation for this?
Thanks a lot, regards
Nestor

Migrating from Sql server get SQL Error: ORA-00936: missing expression

All,
I'm migrating from Sql Server to oracle 10g and I'm getting a
"SQL Error: ORA-00936: missing expression" error
when the following create table statement is executed. It appears 10g does not like the CREATE DEFAULT xxxx as xxx syntax. Any ideas??
CREATE TABLE EnvCapitalOtherCostAtom (
EnvID CHAR(36) NOT NULL,
CapitalID CHAR(36) NOT NULL,
Seq FLOAT DEFAULT
CREATE DEFAULT D_Set_To_Zero
     AS 0
NOT NULL,
AtomID CHAR(36) DEFAULT
CREATE DEFAULT D_NewGUID
     AS newid
NOT NULL,
AtomName VARCHAR2(100) NOT NULL,
AtomName_dqa NUMBER(5,0) DEFAULT
CREATE DEFAULT D_DQA_Dflt
     AS 10
NOT NULL,
CreatedOnTimeStamp TIMESTAMP(6) NOT NULL,
LastEditedOnTimeStamp TIMESTAMP(6) NOT NULL,
TFDubh_dqa NUMBER(5,0),
record_flags NUMBER(5,0) DEFAULT
CREATE DEFAULT D_Record_Flags
     AS 0
NOT NULL,
record_dqa NUMBER(5,0) DEFAULT
CREATE DEFAULT D_Record_DQA
     AS 30
NOT NULL
);

Hi Chris,
not sure SQL Server accepts the syntax you provided either. Even more I have checked MSDN(http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms173565.aspx) and they recommend:
Avoid using CREATE DEFAULT in new development work, and plan to modify applications that currently use it. Instead, use default definitions created using the DEFAULT keyword of ALTER TABLE or CREATE TABLE. CREATE DEFAULT will be removed in a future version of Microsoft SQL Server.
In Oracle you should do the same either use DEFAULT in CREATE TABLE statement or in ALTER TABLE, have a look at http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/appdev.102/b14251/adfns_constraints.htm#sthref626 for more details.
The proper Oracle syntax for your DDL should be something like:
CREATE TABLE EnvCapitalOtherCostAtom (
EnvID CHAR(36) NOT NULL,
CapitalID CHAR(36) NOT NULL,
Seq FLOAT DEFAULT 0 NOT NULL,
AtomID CHAR(36) DEFAULT SYS_GUID() NOT NULL,
AtomName VARCHAR2(100) NOT NULL,
AtomName_dqa NUMBER(5,0) DEFAULT 10 NOT NULL,
CreatedOnTimeStamp TIMESTAMP(6) NOT NULL,
LastEditedOnTimeStamp TIMESTAMP(6) NOT NULL,
TFDubh_dqa NUMBER(5,0),
record_flags NUMBER(5,0) DEFAULT 0 NOT NULL,
record_dqa NUMBER(5,0) DEFAULT 30 NOT NULL
);

Automatic Row Processing fetch error (ORA-00936: missing expres) - synonyms

I have built an Apex application in Apex v4.0.0.00.46. I have built an Apex input form on a table that is in the same Oracle schema where Apex application resides. Now I am trying to migrate that table to a different Oracle schema but I am having this problem after I created the table on the new schema and created a SYNONYM to point to the new location of the table.
ORA-06550: line 1, column 17: PL/SQL: ORA-00936: missing expression ORA-06550: line 1, column 9: PL/SQL: SQL Statement ignored
I can select on this table via SQL Plus using the synonym. The form uses a "Automated Row Fetch" process action and fails in this step when trying to fetch data for the form. I don't get the error if I set the condition property to "never" but the fetch does not run; as soon as disable the condition I get this error.
Apex query report regions work fine using the synonyms but the problem seems to occur only on the automated row fetch accion.
I appreciate if someone can help out with this problem. Thanks.

Hi,
Follow the steps:
1. Go to application
2. Click on "Edit Application Properties" Button.
3. Select the Parsing Schema to new schema in Name Region.
4. Click "Apply Changes" Button.

Message error ORA-00936 when using JDBC adapter

Hi all,
I'm using the folow scenario:
RFC --> XI --> JDBC
RFC <-- XI <-- JDBC (response)
It's a SYNCHRONOUS interface.
RFC call without COMMIT WORK:
CALL FUNCTION 'Y_TESTE_NEI'
    DESTINATION 'RFC_XI'
EXPORTING
   DATE_FROM       = v_data_from
   DATE_TO         = v_data_to
TABLES
    t_return        = t_dados.
I'm not using KEY in JDBC message, because for test I want to get entiry table, and I set the communication channel JDBC to KEY not mandatory.
I'm not having mapping error, in SXMB_MONI I can see the two messages of interface, but both with SYSTEM ERROR.
In JDBC adapter in Runtime Workbench apears the follow message error:
com.sap.aii.af.ra.ms.api.DeliveryException: Error processing request in sax parser: Error when executing statement for table/stored proc. 't7_productionorder' (structure 't7_productionorder'): java.sql.SQLException: ORA-00936: missing expression
And DUMP in function call in R/3: CALL_FUNCTION_REMOTE_ERROR
Could anyone help me about this problem ?
Thanks in advance.
Regis Ferrato

Hi Regis,
I did the same scenario just now. The error you get is, you need to check whether the fields you are entering into the database have correct datatypes.
Check out your database structure with your structure in XI, and also test in Message Mapping, to make sure you are sending correct values.
In my case I was sending date like this '10-12-06', but my DB accepts only '101206'. So I removed the '-'. It was fine .
The Dumping error is not due to your ABAP, due to the DB operation.
Let me know Whether I am correct.
Raj.

Automatic Row Processing fetch error (ORA-00936: missing expression)

Hi there,
I have a bit of a problem setting up automatic row processing. The Apex processing is causing an error, but I'm not sure what PL/SQL code is being run (obviously, I don't have access to the Apex code) and all I get is the error following:
0.13: Processing point: AFTER_HEADER
0.13: ...Process "Notes load": DML_FETCH_ROW (AFTER_HEADER) F|#OWNER#:PUPIL_NOTE:P29_PUPIL_ID:PUPIL_ID:P29_ACHIEVEMENT_SET_ID:ACHIEVEMENT_SET_ID
0.16: Show ERROR page...
and then the following exception report on the page:
ORA-06550: line 1, column 17: PL/SQL: ORA-00936: missing expression ORA-06550: line 1, column 9: PL/SQL: SQL Statement ignored
Can anyone tell me how I can diagnose the problem?
Many thanks,
Robert

I am having a very similiar problem

JOH was a synonym (allowing other shemas to access the table) but @I delted those
P66_JOH_ID is a DB column (which it wasnt)
but I still get the error
ORA-06550: line 1, column 17: PL/SQL: ORA-00936: missing expression ORA-06550: line 1, column 9: PL/SQL: SQL Statement ignored
Any ideas how I can track this down?

Report error ORA-00936 (correction) urgent

I wrote a quey

and getting an erro ora-00936 missing expression,
why this error is shown,
i want to make a lexical paramater , and want to give end user the option to choose from a list (to order by) the report,
please tell me the solution

Hello,
http://www.oracle.com/webapps/online-help/reports/10.1.2/topics/htmlhelp_rwbuild_hs/rwwhthow/whatare/dmobj/sq_a_lexical_references.htm
You create a lexical reference by typing an ampersand (&) followed immediately by the column or parameter name. A default definition is not provided for lexical references. Therefore, you must do the following:
Before you create your query, define a column or parameter in the data model for each lexical reference in the query. For columns, you must set the Value if Null property, and, for parameters, you must set the Initial Value property. Reports Builder uses these values to validate a query with a lexical reference.
Create your query containing lexical references.
Regards

Hello ahmed,
I noticed two errors in your update statment:
Here is the corrected:
UPDATE MOB
SET    MOBILE = CASE (SUBSTR(MOBILE,1,3))
       WHEN '012' THEN '0122'||SUBSTR(MOBILE,4,10)
       WHEN '018' THEN '0128'||SUBSTR(MOBILE,4,10)

       WHEN '019' THEN '0109'||SUBSTR(MOBILE,4,10)
       WHEN '011' THEN '0111'||SUBSTR(MOBILE,4,10)
       WHEN '014' THEN '0114'||SUBSTR(MOBILE,4,10)
       END
      The changes made are
1) removed keyword ANY which was placed by you before the Case statement
2) removed alise "NEW MOB" of the column which you put after END keyword.. Its not needed in update statement..

SQL syntax exception: missing expression?

Owb beta 3 / master detail mapping with sequence ora-00936 error

I'm not able to use sequence operator in mapping to create relationships between different record type from the same flat file. I have got an sql error ORA-00936: expression absente
The problem seem to be the sequence is not referenced in the sql loader parameter. The sequence exists, was deployed sucessfully, the mapping is validated and successfully deployed. The problem occurs during execution

Good afternoon "micwic",
In general, mappings with flat files make use of data generators, not sequence operators. This is what the User Guide (10gR1 but I guess R2 works similar) says for the Data Generator Operator :
Use a Data Generator operator to provide information such as record number, system date, and sequence values.
For mappings with flat file sources, the Data Generator operator also provides a place to enter constant information. For mappings with Flat File sources and targets, the Data Generator operator connects the mapping to SQL*Loader to generate the data stored in the database record.
The following functions are available:
RECNUM
SYSDATE
SEQUENCE
It is possible for Warehouse Builder to generate data by specifying only sequences, record numbers, system dates, and constants as field specifications. SQL*Loader inserts as many records as are specified by the LOAD keyword.
Setting a Column to the Data File Record Number
Use the RECNUM keyword to set an attribute to the number of the records that tthe record was loaded from. Records are counted sequentially from the beginning of the first data file, starting with record 1. RECNUM increments as each logical record is assembled. It increments for records that are discarded, skipped, rejected, or loaded.
For example, if you use the option SKIP=10, the first record loaded has a RECNUM of 11.
Setting a Column to the Current Date
A column specified with SYSDATE gets the current system date, as defined by the SQL language SYSDATE function.
The target column must be of type CHAR or DATE. If the column is of type CHAR, then the date is loaded in the format dd-mon-yy. After the load, you only access it in that format. If the system date is loaded into a DATE column, then you can only access it in a variety of formats including the time and the date. A new system date/time is used for each array of records inserted in a conventional path load and for each block of records loaded during a direct path load.
Setting a Column to a Unique Sequence Number
The SEQUENCE keyword ensures a unique value for a column. SEQUENCE increments for each record that is loaded or rejected. It does not increment for records that are discarded or skipped.
Recommendation: For PL/SQL mappings use a Constant Operator or Mapping Sequence Operator instead of a Data Generator.
etc.
Good luck, Patrick

[SQL Question] ORA-00936: missing expression --- Possible Error on subquery

I have one query that is basically three subqueries together.
If I separate them, they run correctly, but once I put them together I get the Oracle error:
ORA-00936: missing expression
select associate_id, application_id, entity_id, profile_id, language, neutrals,
created_date, sf_completed_date, completed_time, parent_respondent, parent_aid, attempt, parent_attempt,

     from profiles p1
          where sf_completed_date < to_date('15-aug-2006 00:00:00','DD-MM-YYYY HH24:MI:SS')
          and parent_respondent is null
          and parent_aid is null
          and neutrals < 155
          and p1.attempt in
(select nvl(max(attempt),0)
     from profiles p2
          where p2.associate_id = p1.associate_id
          and p1.associate_id in)
(select p1.associate_id, count(*) as count
     from

     union all
select top4 as theme
     from p1.profiles
     union all
select top5 as theme
     from p1.profiles)
     group by theme);
I'm using Golden, and this is the SQL where the error is happening:
and p1.associate_id in)
(select p1.associate_id, count(*) as countWhat is the best way to get this to run? Is it something with the way the subquery is written?
thanks

Try this:
and   p1.attempt in (select nvl(max(attempt),0)
                     from   profiles p2
                     where p2.associate_id = p1.associate_id
                     and p1.associate_id in
                       (select p1.associate_id
                             , count(*) as count
                        from (select top1 as theme
                              from   p1.profiles
                              union all
                              select top2 as theme
                              from   p1.profiles
                              union all
                              select top3 as theme

Question on using Distinct operator and avoiding ORA-00936 error

I may have answered my own question, by searching the OTN forums, but I just want to confirm what I've learned.
I'm trying to use a distinct on one of my columns, where I am pulling multiple columns, and trying to avoid duplicate entries. From most of my textbook example, when an example is using a distinct, they were only pulling one column.
From my example below, when I try to use a distinct, I get the following error: ORA-00936: missing expression:
select p.list_id, distinct(p.associate_id), d.first, d.last, c.street1, c.street2, c.city, c.state, c.country, c.postal_code, c.email
from sf.profiles p, demographics d, contact_info c
where p.entity_id = d.entity_id
and p.entity_id = c.entity_id
and p.list_id = 111
and associate_id in (insert associate_id in here
);Once I searched OTN, I saw some examples, where they had the distinct operator as the first column. So I switched it with p.list_id, and the query ran find.
select distinct p.associate_id, p.list_id, d.first, d.last, c.street1, c.street2, c.city, c.state, c.country, c.postal_code, c.email
from sf.profiles p, demographics d, contact_info c
where p.entity_id = d.entity_id
and p.entity_id = c.entity_id
and p.list_id = 111
and associate_id in (insert associate_id in here);So, does the distinct operator have to go first, if using multiple columns?
thanks

With or without parenthesis, it's a distinct clause for all columns in select statement:
SQL> select * from tt1;
        ID T
     10203 1
     10203 2
SQL> select distinct(id), text from tt1;
        ID T
     10203 1

        ID T
