Problem in calling of stored procedure with variable parameters

Hello!
When we try to call our stored procudure with variable parameter (year and month) we receive various errors.
Here's the dynamic package script code:
DEBUG(ON)
PROMPT(SELECTINPUT,,,"Please select time for restatement",%TIME_DIM%)
TASK(Execute formulas,USER,%USER%)
TASK(Execute formulas,APPSET,%APPSET%)
TASK(Execute formulas,APP,%APP%)
TASK(Execute formulas,SELECTION,%SELECTIONFILE%)
TASK(Execute formulas,LOGICFILE,%APPPATH%\..\AdminApp\%APP%\zbpc_to_fm.lgx)
TASK(Execute formulas,RUNMODE,1)
TASK(Execute formulas,LOGICMODE,1)
TASK(Execute formulas,SIMULATION,1)
TASK(Execute formulas,CHECKLCK,0)
Our logic script file (zbpc_to_fm.lgx) code is:
*RUN_STORED_PROCEDURE=ztest('%TIME_SET%')
*commit
The problem occures while transferring the variable parameter %TIME_SET% value.
How can we correctly transfer the selected value of TIME_SET into the procedure?

Everything in the debug log looks correct -- the most important lines are the ones indicating the values passed from the user's response to the PROMPT(SELECTINPUT...)
INFO(%CATEGORY_SET%, BUDGET)
INFO(%ENTITY_SET%, 1733)
INFO(%FUND_SET%, )
INFO(%PROJECT_SET%, )
INFO(%TIME_SET%, 2008.NOV)
Are you certain that the stored proc is processing the input parameter for time correctly, when you run it directly in MS Mgmt Studio?
What error messages do you see running it from BPC?
By "customized user authorities" do you mean that the time dimension is secured, and this user has access only to 2008.total and its descendants? If that's the case, the user should be able to see only those members in the action pane / current view, but the SELECTINPUT prompt should only show the base members (and not the year total and quarters). I'm still confused as to why all 12 + 4 + 1 members are passed through to the stored proc.

Calling a Stored Procedure with output parameters from Query Templates

This is same problem which Shalaka Khandekar logged earlier. This new thread gives the complete description about our problem. Please go through this problem and suggest us a feasible solution.
We encountered a problem while calling a stored procedure from MII Query Template as follows-
1. Stored Procedure is defined in a package. Procedure takes the below inputs and outputs.
a) Input1 - CLOB
b) Input2 - CLOB
c) Input3 - CLOB
d) Output1 - CLOB
e) Output2 - CLOB
f) Output3 - Varchar2
2. There are two ways to get the output back.
a) Using a Stored Procedure by declaring necessary OUT parameters.
b) Using a Function which returns a single value.
3. Consider we are using method 2-a. To call a Stored Procedure with OUT parameters from the Query Template we need to declare variables of
corresponding types and pass them to the Stored Procedure along with the necessary input parameters.
4. This method is not a solution to get output because we cannot declare variables of some type(CLOB, Varchar2) in Query Template.
5. Even though we are successful (step 4) in declaring the OUT variables in Query Template and passed it successfully to the procedure, but our procedure contains outputs which are of type CLOB. It means we are going to get data which is more than VARCHAR2 length which query template cannot return(Limit is 32767
characters)
6. So the method 2-a is ruled out.
7. Now consider method 2-b. Function returns only one value, but we have 3 different OUT values. Assume that we have appended them using a separator. This value is going to be more than 32767 characters which is again a problem with the query template(refer to point 5). So option 2-b is also ruled out.
Apart from above mentioned methods there is a work around. It is to create a temporary table in the database with above 3 OUT parameters along with a session specific column. We insert the output which we got from the procedure to the temporary table and use it further. As soon the usage of the data is completed we delete the current session specific data. So indirectly we call the table as a Session Table. This solution increases unnecessary load on the database.
Thanks in Advance.

Rajesh,
please check if this following proposal could serve you.
Define the Query with mode FixedQueryWithOutput. In the package define a ref cursor as IN OUT parameter. To get your 3 values back, open the cursor in your procedure like "Select val1, val2, val3 from dual". Then the values should get into your query.
Here is an example how this could be defined.
Package:
type return_cur IS ref CURSOR;
Procedure:
PROCEDURE myProc(myReturnCur IN OUT return_cur) ...
OPEN myReturnCur FOR SELECT val1, val2, val3 FROM dual;
Query:
DECLARE
MYRETURNCUR myPackage.return_cur;
BEGIN
myPackage.myProc(
MYRETURNCUR => ?
END;
Good luck.

Calling a stored procedure with default parameters

Dear all,
I am trying to call a stored procedure that has not all the parameters compulsory, and indeed, there are some I am not interested in. Therefore, I would like to call the stored procedure initializing only some of the parameters but if I miss some of them, I have an SQLException thrown. Is there any way to do that?
Thanks
Marie

Hi
One way to do it is ---
By using Default Parameters you can miss few parameters while calling a procedure.
=================================================================
As the example below shows, you can initialize IN parameters to default values. That way, you can pass different numbers of actual parameters to a subprogram, accepting or overriding the default values as you please.
Moreover, you can add new formal parameters without having to change every call to the subprogram.
PROCEDURE create_dept (
new_dname VARCHAR2 DEFAULT 'TEMP',
new_loc VARCHAR2 DEFAULT 'TEMP') IS
BEGIN
INSERT INTO dept
VALUES (deptno_seq.NEXTVAL, new_dname, new_loc);
END;
If an actual parameter is not passed, the default value of its corresponding formal parameter is used.
Consider the following calls to create_dept:
create_dept;
create_dept('MARKETING');
create_dept('MARKETING', 'NEW YORK');
The first call passes no actual parameters, so both default values are used.
The second call passes one actual parameter, so the default value for new_loc is used.
The third call passes two actual parameters, so neither default value is used.
Usually, you can use positional notation to override the default values of formal parameters.
However, you cannot skip a formal parameter by leaving out its actual parameter.
For example, the following call incorrectly associates the actual parameter 'NEW YORK' with the formal parameter new_dname:
create_dept('NEW YORK'); -- incorrect
You cannot solve the problem by leaving a placeholder for the actual parameter.
For example, the following call is illegal:
create_dept(, 'NEW YORK'); -- illegal
In such cases, you must use named notation, as follows:
create_dept(new_loc => 'NEW YORK');
===============================================================

Calling a stored procedure with a CLOB as input parameter

Hello,
I was unsuccessfully trying to call a stored procedure with a clob as input parameter from my C++ application using occi.
Anyone got a working example to look at?
I already checked the thread Invalid OCI handle when creating a Blob which didn't help.
The problem seems to be that I don't have a lob locator to write my data (xml file) to. I tried creating a temporary clob using the sys.dbms_lob package which only resulted in a major headache on my part...
I would appreciate any help.
Kind regards
Horst
my environment:
Visual Studio 2008, C++ application
Oracle 11g

To start using a blob you have to insert it into the database and then get it back. Sounds weird but that is how it is. Here is a very simple program to do this:
#include<occi.h>
#include <iostream>
using namespace oracle::occi;
using namespace std;
int main()
try
    Environment *env = Environment::createEnvironment(Environment::OBJECT);
    Connection *conn = env->createConnection("hr","hr","");
    string stmt1 = "insert into blob_tab values (:1) ";
    string stmt2 = "select col1 from blob_tab";
    Blob blob(conn);
    blob.setEmpty(conn);
    Statement *stmtObj = conn->createStatement(stmt1);
    stmtObj->setBlob(1,blob);
    stmtObj->executeUpdate();
    conn->commit();
    Blob blob1(conn);
    Statement *stmtObj2 = conn->createStatement(stmt2);
    ResultSet *rs = stmtObj2->executeQuery();
    while(rs->next())
     blob1 = rs->getBlob(1);
    string stmt3 = "begin my_proc(:1) ;end;";
    Statement *stmtObj3 = conn->createStatement(stmt3);
    stmtObj3->setBlob(1,blob1);
    stmtObj3->executeUpdate();
catch (SQLException e)
    cout << e.getMessage();
/* The tables and procedure are primitive but ok for demo
    create table blob_tab(col1 blob);
    create or replace procedure my_proc(arg in blob)
    as
    begin
     -- just a putline here. you can do other more meaningful operations with the blob here
      dbms_output.put_line('hello');
   end;
}Hope this helps.
Thanks,
Sumit

Calling stored procedure with output parameters in a different schema

I have a simple stored procedure with two parameters:
PROCEDURE Test1(
pOutRecords OUT tCursorRef,
pIdNumber IN NUMBER);
where tCursorRef is REF CURSOR.
(This procedure is part of a package with REF CURSOR declared in there)
And I have two database schemas: AppOwner and AppUser.
The above stored procedure is owned by AppOwner, but I have to execute this stored procedure from AppUser schema. I have created a private synonym and granted the neccessary privileges for AppUser schema to execute the package in the AppUser schema.
When I ran the above procedure from VB using ADO and OraOLEDB.Oracle.1 driver, I got the following error when connecting to the AppUser schema:
ORA-06550: line 1, column 7:
PLS-00306: wrong number or types of arguments in call to 'TEST1'
ORA-06550: line 1, column 7:
PL/SQL: Statement ignored
but when I was connecting to the AppOwner schema, everything is running correctly without errors.
Also, when I switch to the microsoft MSDAORA.1 driver, I can execute the above procedure without any problems even when connecting to the AppUser schema.
I got this error only when I am trying to execute a stored procedure with an output parameter. All other procedures with only input parameters have no problems at all.
Do you know the reason for that? Thanks!

If anyone has figured this one out let me know. I'm getting the same problem. Only in my case I've tried both the "OraOLEDB.Oracle" provider and the "MSDAORA" provider and I get an error either way. Also my procedure has 2 in parameters and 1 out parameter. At least now I know I'm not the only one with this issue. :)

T-sql 2008 r2 place results from calling a stored procedure with parameters into a temp table

I would like to know if the following sql can be used to obtain specific columns from calling a stored procedure with parameters:
/* Create TempTable */
CREATE TABLE #tempTable
(MyDate SMALLDATETIME,
IntValue INT)
GO
/* Run SP and Insert Value in TempTable */
INSERT INTO #tempTable
(MyDate,
IntValue)
EXEC TestSP @parm1, @parm2
If the above does not work or there is a better way to accomplish this goal, please let me know how to change the sql?

declare @result varchar(100), @dSQL nvarchar(MAX)
set @dSQL = 'exec @res = TestSP '''+@parm1+''','' '''+@parm2+' '' '
print @dSQL
EXECUTE sp_executesql @dSQL, N'@res varchar(100) OUTPUT', @res = @result OUTPUT
select @result
A complicated way of saying
EXEC @ret = TestSP @parm1, @parm2
SELECT @ret
And not only compliacated, it introduces a window for SQL injection.

Calling a stored procedure with RAW and SYS_REFCURSOR

How do you call a stored procedure with the following input and output parameters?
create or replace PROCEDURE test
v_col1 IN NUMBER DEFAULT NULL ,
v_col2 IN VARCHAR2 DEFAULT NULL ,
v_col3 IN RAW DEFAULT NULL ,
v_vol4 IN DATE DEFAULT NULL,
cv_1 IN OUT SYS_REFCURSOR
OPEN cv_1 FOR

Did you try just declaring the vars?
untested
declare
myCur SYS_REFCURSOR;
myRaw RAW(4);

test (0, 0, myRaw, sysdate, myCur);
END;

How to call stored procedure with multiple parameters in an HTML expression

Hi, Guys:
Can you show me an example to call stored procedure with multiple parameters in an HTML expression? I need to rewrite a procedure to display multiple pictures of one person stored in database by clicking button.
The orginal HTML expression is :
<img src="#OWNER#.dl_sor_image?p_offender_id=#OFFENDER_ID#" width="75" height="75">which calls a procedure as:
procedure dl_sor_image (p_offender_id IN NUMBER)now I rewrite it as:
PROCEDURE Sor_Display_Current_Image(p_n_Offender_id IN NUMBER, p_n_image_Count in number)could anyone tell me the format for the html expression to pass multiple parameters?
Thanks a lot.
Sam

Hi:
Thanks for your help! Your question is what I am trying hard now. Current procedure can only display one picture per person, however, I am supposed to write a new procedure which displays multiple pictures for one person. When user click a button on report, APEX should call this procedure and returns next picture of the same person. The table is SOR_image. However, I rewrite the HTML expression as follows to test to display the second image.
<img src="#OWNER#.Sor_Display_Current_Image?p_n_Offender_id=#OFFENDER_ID#&p_n_image_Count=2" width="75" height="75"> The procedure code is complied OK as follows:
create or replace
PROCEDURE Sor_Display_Current_Image(p_n_Offender_id IN NUMBER, p_n_image_Count in number) AS
    v_mime_type VARCHAR2(48);
    v_length NUMBER;
    v_name VARCHAR2(2000);
    v_image BLOB;
    v_counter number:=0;
    cursor cur_All_Images_of_Offender is
      SELECT 'IMAGE/JPEG' mime_type, dbms_lob.getlength(image) as image_length, image
      FROM sor_image
      WHERE offender_id = p_n_Offender_id;
    rec_Image_of_Offender cur_All_Images_of_Offender%ROWTYPE;
BEGIN
    open cur_All_Images_of_Offender;
    loop
      fetch cur_All_Images_of_Offender into rec_Image_of_Offender;
      v_counter:=v_counter+1;
      if (v_counter=p_n_image_Count) then
        owa_util.mime_header(nvl(rec_Image_of_Offender.mime_type, 'application/octet'), FALSE);
        htp.p('Content-length: '||rec_Image_of_Offender.image_length);
        owa_util.http_header_close;
        wpg_docload.download_file (rec_Image_of_Offender.image);
      end if;
      exit when ((cur_All_Images_of_Offender%NOTFOUND) or (v_counter>=p_n_image_Count));
    end loop;
    close cur_All_Images_of_Offender;
END Sor_Display_Current_Image; The procedure just open a cursor to fetch the images belong to the same person, and use wpg_docload.download_file function to display the image specified. But it never works. It is strange because even I use exactly same code as before but change procedure name, Oracle APEX cannot display an image. Is this due to anything such as make file configuration in APEX?
Thanks

Error while calling a stored procedure with OUT parameter.

Hi,
I am trying to call a Stored Procedure(SP) with an OUT parameter(Ref Cursor) from a third party tool. It is called using OLE-DB Data provider. In one database the procedure works fine but when I change the database the procedure call is giving following error.
Distribution Object:     COM Error. COM Source: OraOLEDB. COM Error message: IDispatch error #3092. COM Description: ORA-06550: line 1, column 7:
     PLS-00306: wrong number or types of arguments in call to 'TEST1'
     ORA-06550: line 1, column 7:
     PL/SQL: Statement ignored.
I am not able to find as to why is this happening. Please let me know any clues /help to solve this problem.
Thanks in advance.

If you're using Oracle Provider for OLE DB (OraOLEDB) to execute this stored procedure, you need to set PLSQLRSet attribute. This attribute can be set in registry, connection string, or command object. Please refer to User Documentation for more information.

With JDBC, calling a stored procedure with ARRAY as out parameter

Hi,
I want to use the data type ARRAY as an out parameter in an Oracle stored procedure. I want to call the stored procedure from
my java program using JDBC.
The problem it's i use a 8.1.7 client to acces with oci to a 7.1.3 Database.
With this configuration I can get back a Cursor but not an Array.
Does it's possible ?
Thanks for your help !

Calling Oracle Stored procedure with OUT parameter from ODI

Hi,
I called an oracle stored procedure with following anonymous block in the ODI procedure.
Declare
Status varchar2(10);
Begin
OTM.DeleteTarget('E_KPI_TARGET_VALUE', Status);
End;
I want to capture the OUT parameter STATUS value in a project level variable.
And based on its va;lue I would like to choose between 2 interfaces in my package.
Please help me in doing this.

Hi,
For that kind of situation I commoly use:
1) one step with:
create or replace package <%=odiRef.getSchemaName("W")%>.pck_var
Status varchar2(10);
end;
* transaction 9, for instance
2) step
Begin
OTM.DeleteTarget('E_KPI_TARGET_VALUE', <%=odiRef.getSchemaName("W")%>.pck_var.Status);
End;
* transaction 9
3) then, at an ODI variable, use a refresh like:
select <%=odiRef.getSchemaName("W")%>.pck_var.Status from dual
at same logical shema where the package was created.
Does it make sense to you?

How to call a Stored Procedure with a REF CURSOR output parameter

I am looking forward an example that call a stored function/procedure with a REF CURSOR output parameter and get the result.
In other words, I have a stored function/procedure that execute a SELECT statement using the OCI library and then it could get the values of each column and each row.
I put a code snippet, it have only the main thing to call a simple stored procedure and print the name of each column of the cursor, but I couldn´t to print out the values in the table that call the stored procedure.
I understand that the next step, it is to call a OCIStmtFetch.
How to associate the cursor with the OCIStmtFetch?
If you need more information, only tell me.
I am using ANSI C with HP-UX Operative System (C for HP-UX) and Oracle 10g.
Regards.

Hi Mark,
Thanks for your recommendations.
I change the code with OCIDefineByPos, one for each parameter from cursor and then use the OCIStmtFetch.
I don´t receive a error when call OCIDefineByPos, but when I call OCIStmtFetch receive a -1 error number.
What is wrong with the code?
The script is the same.
I need your help!
Best Regards!

Calling a stored procedure with argument as column name

hi
i am calling a stored procedure mapping_audit_errors_inserts
whose definition is as follows
PROCEDURE mapping_audit_errors_inserts (
in_ma_seq_id IN ETL_MAPPING_AUDIT_ERRORS.ma_seq_id%TYPE,
in_etl_stage IN ETL_MAPPING_AUDIT_ERRORS.etl_stage%TYPE,
in_sqlerrcode IN ETL_MAPPING_AUDIT_ERRORS.sqlerrcode%TYPE
IS
BEGIN
mapping_audit_ora_errors (in_ma_seq_id,
in_etl_stage,
in_sqlerrcode,
get_error_message (in_sqlerrcode)
END;
now i need to call this procedure as
mapping_audit_errors_inserts(MA_SEQ_ID.currval,1,v_error_code)
[ v_error_code:=SQLCODE;]
it is giving error as
PLS-00201: identifier 'MA_SEQ_ID.CURRVAL' must be declared
can anyone calrify me on this.
Thanks

Anwar is likely correct about the reason for your error. The other possibility is that the owner of the procedure calling mapping_audit_errors_inserts does not have SELECT on the sequence granted directly to them.
However, even after creating the sequence, if the session calling the procedure has not got a value from the sequence prior to trying to use CURRVAL, you will get:
SQL> CREATE PROCEDURE p(p_id IN NUMBER) AS
2 BEGIN
3     DBMS_OUTPUT.Put_Line('ID is '||p_id);
4 END;
5 /
Procedure created.
SQL> DECLARE
2     l_no NUMBER;
3 BEGIN
4     SELECT ma_seq_id.CURRVAL INTO l_no
5     FROM dual;
6     p(l_no);
7 END;
8 /
DECLARE
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-08002: sequence MA_SEQ_ID.CURRVAL is not yet defined in this session
ORA-06512: at line 4And, just to reinforce Anwar's point about selecting it into a variable, if you try to pass CURRVAL to a procedure, you will get:
SQL> DECLARE
2     l_no NUMBER;
3 BEGIN
4     SELECT ma_seq_id.NEXTVAL INTO l_no
5     FROM dual;
6     p(ma_seq_id.CURRVAL);
7 END;
8 /
   p(ma_seq_id.CURRVAL);
ERROR at line 6:
ORA-06550: line 6, column 16:

Calling a Stored Procedure with a result set and returned parms

I am calling a stored procedure from a Brio report. The stored procedure returns a result set, but also passes back some parameters. I am getting a message that states that the DBMS cannot find the SP with the same footprint. Besides the result set, the SP returns 3 out parameters: (Integer, char(60), char(40)). Is there something special I need to do in Brio to format the out parameters to be passed back from the SP.
Thanks,
Roland

Did you try just declaring the vars?
untested
declare
myCur SYS_REFCURSOR;
myRaw RAW(4);
BEGIN
test (0, 0, myRaw, sysdate, myCur);
END;

Calling a stored procedure with a table of custom types as a out parameter

Hi,
I'm trying to use toplink 11.1.1.0.0 to call a stored procudure with 4 in paramrs and a single out parameter of type gsearch_type which is a userdefined type defined as below
CREATE or replace TYPE search_object as object (mdlnumber varchar2(12), hit clob);
create or replace type gsearch_type as table of search_object;
Is it possible to get the return value from this stored procedure using toplink.
Thanks in advance for any help.
- Sunil

Currently TopLink can't directly handle that kind of output parameter.
As a workaround you would need a wrapper for the stored procedure - it could be either another stored procedure or an anonymous block which would return the components of the complex parameter as several simple parameters.
