  • Dynamic SQL run with error 'ORA-29275: partial multibyte character'

    Hi All,
    In daily work, we use daynamic SQL to load data from another database through DB Link. However, even if I run the following simple statement in our DB, it will raise the error.
    CREATE TABLE TEST_TMP
    AS
    SELECT TRANSACTION_REASON
    FROM [email protected] --it is using db link.
    WHERE LAST_UPDATE_DATE>=TO_DATE('18-12-2012 22:01:58', 'dd-mm-yyyy hh24:mi:ss');
    This statement had been workng correctly before OCT-2012 and there was no change with the source. Afterwards, there was just a change which upgraded the DB version from 10g to 11g on our side. I have browsed my technical articles, but I still cannot find the root cause. Is it due to the updgrading of the DB which practice stricter sanity check?
    I don't know.
    I'd appreciate of you can give me suggestion if you know such case.
    Thanks,
    David

    Check these queries -

    I got --

    Hi,
    It's seems are you using char function in your report?
    If yes, Change the char size .
    ex: cast(column name as char).
    A. Cast(column name as char(300)).
    I am not sure this is what your looking so far.
    Award points it is useful.

  • Error opening the database for the library "~/Pictures/Aperture Trial Library.aplibrary" error message

    When starting up Aperature 3 I get the following Error Message :
    "There was an error opening the database for the library “~/Pictures/Aperture Trial Library.aplibrary”.
    I can't di a thing except Quit. I have restored from Time Machine and reloaded the Software from Disk. Still get the same message. Any suggestions Are appreciated.
    Jim

    Hello Jim,
    I assume you trial Aperture Library is in your "Pictures" folder? Try to rename it to something like "OldApertureTrialLibrary.aplibrary", to force Aperture to create a new Application Library.
    To rename the old Trial Library, select it in the Finder and enter Command(⌘)-I (short for File-> Get Info). Click on the file name text field and enter a new name.
    Possibly you get this error message message, because there is some permissions problem. If you are not allowed to rename the file, click on the padlock in the lower right corner, authentificate as admin and give yourself read/write access to the trial library (in the "Sharing & Permissions" brick of the "Get Info" panel).
    Post back, if your "ApertureTrialLibrary.aplibrary" contains valuable images that you would like to save or if this does not work and you need further advice.
    Regards
    Léonie

    What do you mean by reinstalling the library? Did you reinstall Aperture?
    You might start the trouble shooting with using the Aperture Library First Aid Tools - repairing the permissions, repairing the library, and rebuilding, if necessary, see:

    Before rebuilding the library, make a backup of the Aperture Library, if you do not have one.

    Hello,
    Have you checked your Universe connection to the database?
    Did you create the report in Rich client on your machine and then export it? ODBC connections may be different. They need to be the same.
    I am not sure what you mean regarding blank with different colors. Can you explain this a little better?

    Help, I had aperture open and working on a image and did not have a battery in and bumped the power off. As a result it will not open my master, it is locked. when I try to open that Library  it says There was an error opening the database for the library. I have tried every thing. I updated the other libr but now it will not open the main to update. What do I do?

    Try starting Aperture with the command and option keys held down.  You'll get 3 options.
    Try each, starting at the top, in order, checking after each to see if it fixes the issue.

  • "There was an error opening the database for the library "~/Pictures/Apert"

    Hey everyone,
    There's already another discussion thread about this at the link below, but the problem was never actually resolved. http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2343014&tstart=0&messageID=116 67261#11667261
    So I stumbled across this problem where Aperture 3 will display the following error when opening the image library.
    There was an error opening the database for the library “~[path]/Aperture Library.aplibrary”.
    One user suggested navigating to the actual library, and ⌘⌥-clicking the library to open it with the Aperture Library First Aid dialog. This however, did not work for me. I still received the error messages upon ⌘⌥-clicking the library.
    Here's a little hack I discovered for those of you still struggling. It doesn't fix the problem (leaves quite a large dent remaining actually), but hopefully someone can cultivate what little I discovered.
    ⌥-click Aperture (not the library)
    You should get to the library selection dialog box. Create a new library (bottom right corner) and remember the location of the new library. Put a few random pictures in the new one.
    Close Aperture
    ⌃-click both the old and new libraries and "Show Package Contents."
    Open the folder "Database" in both libraries.
    Cross check the folders to see if the old library is missing files that are in the new library. If your old library is missing some files (mine was), drag the missing files from the new library to the old one.
    Close both folders.
    ⌘⌥-click the old library.
    NOW, I got the Aperture Library First Aid dialog.
    Rebuild the library (3rd option)
    Wait a while.
    Aperture should open up with a folder named "Recovered Folder." Within this folder will be a SINGLE project named "Recovered Project" with ALL the images from your old library. There may be a few albums there too, but mine were all empty so it didn't matter in my case. To my knowledge, I lost all the adjustments I performed too.
    This is as far as I got. I have much of my library backed up, so I only needed to copy the most recent photos into the backup. I am NOT reorganizing and re-editing pictures in this one!
    As Aperture is a photo-organizing and photo-editing software, I understand that this by no means fixes the problem, since you lose all organization and editing. But it enables one to at least view the images lost. Hopefully a more knowledgable hacker else can figure out how to fix this completely. Unfortunately, I simply don't have the time to continue messing with this.
    Good luck to anyone else having issues! I understand the frustration you must be facing, its freaky having years worth of images simply disappear! After this incident, I'm definitely going to configure Time Machine to perform more frequent backups, since my latest backup was already a couple weeks old.

    Hey All,
    To my horror I have a similar problem and your solution didn't seem to help. To be specific, I get the error:
    "There was an error opening the database for the library “~/Pictures/Aperture Library_2.aplibrary" Everytime I try to run Aperture. This happened because my Apple computer shut off completely (due to bad battery) while importing photos from a memory card.
    I've tried "option + command" while clicking the aperture application and that gave me the same error message without any other option except to quit the program. I tried "option + command" and clicked the library package but that didn't work either. I tried creating a new aperture library, opening it which I did successfully, and then switching to my main one but that didn't work.
    Does anyone know away to get it to work again and have the edits still there?
    I'm a professional photographer and have thousands of photos or so in the library so this is distressing. The master files for the photos are located on an external hard drive, but I'm not sure how to access them in aperture. Are all the edits on the photographs are in the external hard drive or the aperture library. Is there any other way to resolve this issue without losing the edits?
    Does apple have a support number I can call? Any help would be greatly appreciated!!
