ORA-00932: inconsistent datatypes: expected NUMBER got LONG

Hi,
I am facing problem while issuing the command:
ORA-00932: inconsistent datatypes: expected NUMBER got LONG
SELECT TEXT FROM USER_VIEWS WHERE TEXT LIKE '%ASCII%'
Any help will be needful for me
Thanks and Regards

Please go through this
If you try to search a LONG column, this is what will happen:
SQL> select record_no, comments
2 from long_demo
3 where
4 comments like '%LONG%';
comments like '%LONG%'
ERROR at line 4:
ORA-00932: inconsistent data types
That's right; you can't search the contents of a LONG column. Here's what happens if you try to apply a function to a LONG column.
SQL> select record_no, substr(comments,1,5)
2 from long_demo;
select record_no, substr(comments,1,5)
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-00932: inconsistent data types
Again, Oracle won't enable you to apply a function to a LONG column. In a sense, you can think of a LONG column as a large container into which you can store or retrieve data--;but not manipulate it.
I have taken this content from
http://docs.rinet.ru/Oru7na95/ch10.html
which I refer to when I get stuck up. Hope this helps you.

It might be data issue.
You may narrow down using length of the particular column.

Your question has nothing to do with XQuery and is more appropriate for the {forum:id=75} forum. You will also need to include which line is raising the error message. It would be best to post the entire error message in your thread instead of just part of it in the subject.
Out of curiosity, why are you returning .getLength, which returns a number, into a varchar2(32000) field? Seems overkill.

The proper way is to define a function that returns the SQL statement (with bind variables) that Apex need to execute for the report region.
Let's say you have a region that reports either on departments (department variable is null)or employees in a department (department variable not null).
You have a page item call P1_DEPT that specifies the department.
You create the following function call for the report:
MyDynamicReport(
depatvalue => :P1_DEPT, -- value of apex variable
deptvariable => 'P1_DEPT' -- name of apex variable
The function can now determine what the SQL is and return that to the Apex engine for processing:
create or replace function MyDynamicReport( deptValue number, deptVar varchar2 ) return varchar2 is
sqlQuery varchar2(1000);
begin
if deptValue is null then
     -- no department selected, so query all departments
    sqlQuery := 'select * from dept order by dept_id';
else
     -- department selected, so display employees in department
     -- (and use the supplied bind variable in the SQL query)
    sqlQuery := 'select * from emp where dept_id = :'||deptVar||' order by emp_id';
end if;
return( sqlQuery );
end;
When creating a ref cursor, you pass the VALUE of the variable for the ref cursor to use as a bind variable.
With an Apex dynamic query, you need to pass the NAME of the variable for the function to use and add into the dynamic query text.
Using a pipeline table function instead for this, is idiotic.

Database error -ora-00932: inconsistent datatypes: expected number got date

The above error is generated on our new 11g OAS when we execute a specific workbook with a calculation with a case statement. The case statement is displayed below.
The error does not occur on our 10g OAS. Any ideas as to the cause/solution?

PL/SQL: ORA-00932: inconsistent datatypes: expected UDT got NUMBER

Hi all,
Wondering if you could assist? I'm exploring User Types and having a small problem. I'm getting the above error for a user type I have created which I'm calling in a function. Here's what my code looks like which I'm running the 'scott' schema for testing purposes

Any clues to what I'm doing wrong? Cheers.

The deptno column is a number, you cannot directly select a number into your type, you need to use your type's constructor.
Something like:
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION first_rec_only (NUM_ID IN NUMBER) RETURN NUMBER IS
   v_num NBR_COLL;
BEGIN
   SELECT nbr_coll(deptno) INTO v_num from dept;
   RETURN v_num(v_num.FIRST);
END first_rec_only;Note that although this will compile, it will throw ORA-01422: exact fetch returns more than requested number of rows when you run it. you need to either use the input parameter as a predicate on your query against dept, use rownum = 1 in the query or use bulk BULK COLLECT INTO, depending on what exactly you want to accomplish.

ORA-00932: inconsistent datatypes: expected UDT got NUMBER

Hello Friends...
i got this error while inserting record ..
ORA-00932: inconsistent datatypes: expected UDT got NUMBER
wht is that UDT ??
Thanks..

You cannot insert into your table STUDENT using the COURSE_TAB collection, since the column SUB is defined as a single object type.
So either you have to modify your insert into two inserts as follows;
INSERT INTO STUDENT VALUES(1,COURSE('1','ORACLE') )
INSERT INTO STUDENT VALUES(1,COURSE('2','JAVA') )
/or you have to modify your table structure so you can store a nested table, which will allow you to have a single insert
something like this:
drop table s
drop type course_tab
create or replace type course_type as object (
CNO CHAR(1),
C_CNAME VARCHAR2(10)
CREATE or replace TYPE course_tab AS TABLE OF course_type;
create table s ( c course_tab )
nested table c store as course_list
-- You can now have a single insert as follows:
1* insert into s (c) values ( course_tab ( course_type('1','Java'), course_type('2','Oracle')) )
SQL> /
1 row created.Be careful of using nested tables though. asktom reckons one should not use them.

ORA-00932: inconsistent datatypes: expected DATE got NUMBER at OCI call OCIStmtExecute in OBIEE 11g

Hi Friends,
I am getting this error : ORA-00932: inconsistent datatypes: expected DATE got NUMBER at OCI call OCIStmtExecute when I am trying to put the filter condition on the date column.
"Dim-Time"."Day" <= cast(MAX("Dim-Time"."Day") as date) and "Dim-Time"."Day" >= TIMESTAMPADD(SQL_TSI_MONTH, -1,cast(MAX("Dim-Time"."Day") as date).
I have casted the max date but though I am getting the above error. I am thinking max(date) is creating the problem.
Please suggest your on opinion this.
Thanks.

Not sure why you need cast in your statement if at all it is required then you need to do as below
cast("Dim-Time"."Day" as date)<= cast(MAX("Dim-Time"."Day") as date) and cast("Dim-Time"."Day" as date) >= TIMESTAMPADD(SQL_TSI_MONTH, -1,cast(MAX("Dim-Time"."Day") as date).

Are there multiple columns in the table you are using from your LOV?
Your LOV select is:
