Can i know what is wrong with this sql?

i have an error of invalid character.
SELECT SUM(counter),TO_DATE(logdatetime)
FROM NYP_LIBPORTAL.PORTAL_HOME_NON_LOGIN_LOG
WHERE logdatetime = logdatetime
AND (TO_DATE(logdatetime, 'DD-MON-YYYY') BETWEEN
TO_DATE('01-JAN-2007', 'DD-MON-YYYY') AND TO_DATE('31-JAN-2007', 'DD-MON-YYYY'))
GROUP BY TO_DATE (logdatetime);
May i know is there any way that i need to make the changes?

your problem is likely to be the TO_DATE(logdatetime) - if logdatetime is a DATE datatype, then you should never, ever use TO_DATE on it.
But I suspect this has been sorted in a later post of yours?

  • Can anybody see what is wrong with this SQL statement?

    Hey guys, just a quick question. Can anybody tell me what is wrong with this line of SQL? I keep getting a syntax error message. I've been trying for ages and I can't see any problem at all!"
    {code}prepStat = connection.prepareStatement("INSERT INTO WeatherHistory (Date, Location, Overview, Temperature, WindDirection, WindSpeed, Pressure) VALUES ('"+date+"','"+location+"','"+temp+"','"+windDir+"','"+windSpd+"','"+pressure+"')");{code}
    All the field names and variables definitely exist so I can't see what the problem is!

    Thanks for the replies.
    I've matched the correct number of column names and variables, but still no luck.
    And how exactly am I misusing Prepared Statements here?As noted above, not according to the code you posted. I didn't just pluck something out of my @ss and throw it out there. There was a reason behind what I said. And, if you mean you changed it, and you still got an exception, then post that exception (completely), and your new code, which is, hopefully, using PreparedStatement, (properly).

    Hi, everyone:
    when I insert into table, i use the fellowing SQL:
    INSERT INTO xhealthcall_script_data
    (XHC_CALL_ENDED, XHC_SWITCH_PORT, XHC_SCRIPT_ID, XHC_FAX_SPECIFIED)
    VALUES (SELECT TO_DATE(HH_END_DATE||' '||HH_END_TIME,'MM/DD/YY HH24:MI:SS'), HH_SWITCHPORT, HH_SCRIPT,'N'
    FROM tmp_healthhit_load WHERE HH_SCRIPT !='BROCHURE' UNION
    SELECT TO_DATE(HH_END_DATE||' '||HH_END_TIME,'MM/DD/YY HH24:MI:SS'), HH_SWITCHPORT, HH_SCRIPT,'N' FROM tmp_healthhit_load WHERE HH_SCRIPT !='BROCHURE');
    I always got an error like;
    VALUES (SELECT TO_DATE(HH_END_DATE||' '||HH_END_TIME,'MM/DD/YY HH24:MI:SS'), HH_SWITCHPORT,
    ERROR at line 3:
    ORA-00936: missing expression
    but I can't find anything wrong, who can tell me why?

    For starters, an insert select does not have a values clause.

    ...and why are you doing a UNION on the exact same two queries?
    (SELECT TO_DATE(HH_END_DATE||' '||HH_END_TIME,'MM/DD/YY HH24:MI:SS') ,HH_SWITCHPORT ,HH_SCRIPT ,'N' FROM tmp_healthhit_load WHERE HH_SCRIPT !='BROCHURE' UNION SELECT TO_DATE(HH_END_DATE||' '||HH_END_TIME,'MM/DD/YY HH24:MI:SS') ,HH_SWITCHPORT ,HH_SCRIPT ,'N' FROM tmp_healthhit_load WHERE HH_SCRIPT !='BROCHURE');

    Hi,
    thank you for your answer, but the problem is, if I deleted "values" as you pointed out, and then execute it again, I got error like "ERROR at line 3:
    ORA-03113: end-of-file on communication channel", and I was then disconnected with server, I have to relogin SQLplus, and do everything from beganing.
    so what 's wrong caused disconnection, I can't find any triggers related. it is so wired?
    I wonder if anyone can help me about this.
    thank you very much

    Hi,
    acturlly what I do is debugging a previous developer's scipt for data loading, this script was called by Cron work, but it never can be successfully executed.
    I think he use union for eliminating duplications of rows, I just guess.
    thank you

    Scratch the VALUES keyword then make sure that the select list matches the column list in number and type.
    1 insert into marktest
    2 (fld1, fld2, fld3, fld4, fld5)
    3* select * from marktest
    UT1 > /
    16 rows created.

    INSERT INTO xhealthcall_script_data
    (xhc_call_ended, xhc_switch_port, xhc_script_id,
    xhc_fax_specified)
    SELECT TO_DATE (hh_end_date || ' ' || hh_end_time, 'MM/DD/YY HH24:MI:SS'),

    Hi, Jagan:
    thank you very much for your answer.
    but when I execute it, I still can get error like:
    ERROR at line 1:
    ORA-03113: end-of-file on communication channel
    so wired, do you have any ideas?
    thank you very much

    And this one,
    Aother question about SQL?
    I thought I already told him to deal with
    ORA-03113: end-of-file on communication channel
    problem first.
    There's nothing wrong (syntax wise) with the query. (of course when no "value" in the insert)

  • What's wrong with this SQL Statement?

    I hope somebody can help explain to me what is wrong wiht the
    following SQL statement in my Recordest. It does not return an
    error, but it will only filter records from the first variable
    listed, 'varFirstName%'. If I try to use any other variables on my
    search form,for example LastName, it returns all records. Why is it
    doing this?
    Here is the SQL statement:
    SELECT *
    FROM [Sysco Food Show Contacts]
    WHERE FirstName LIKE 'varFirstName%' AND LastName LIKE
    'varLastName%' AND OrganizationName LIKE 'varOrganizationName%' AND
    Address LIKE 'varAddress%' AND City LIKE 'varCity%' AND State LIKE
    'varState' AND PostalCode LIKE 'varPostalCode%'
    The variables are defined as below:
    Name Default Value Run-Time Value
    varFirstName % Request.Form("FirstName")
    varLastName % Request.Form("LastName")
    ...and such with all variables defined the same way.
    Any help would be much appreciated. I am pulling my hair out
    trying to make this Search Form work.
    Thanks, mparsons2000

    PLEASE IGONRE THIS QUESTION!
    There was nothing wrong with the statement. I had made

    }i really need some assistance at the following areas of code :
    where the database results are set to attributes of one bean varabridgment (Type Abridgement) - the declaration and use of this bean.
    and where this bean is then added to another bean abridgeresults (Type Results) as a List collection.
    i get a null pointer exception when i try to retrieve the List from abridgeresults object of Type Results Bean.
    i would really appreciate some assistance in this - i really need to go to sleep now - but cant until i solve this issue. - thanks all in advance.

    below is exception outputed to tomcat log file.
    it is thrown at the following line of code in the jsp that tries to get the List object :
    currently jsp code to retrieve List: <% List myAbridgments = (List) request.getAttribute("results");
    for (int i = 0; i < myAbridgments.size(); i++) {
    abridgment = (Abridgment) myAbridgments.get(i);
    %>
    line that gives problem is
    (results_jsp.java:95)
    //myAbridgments - is variable where i store the List object in jsp scriptlet
    for (int i = 0; i < myAbridgments.size(); i++) {
    Also, i dont understand why the servlet keeps on forwarding to the results.jsp when i even comment out the line of code to forward request oobject to results.jsp - i recompile copy it over original and restart tomcat - but still i get the null pointer exception in results_jsp - but i'm no longer forwarding anything to this jsp. --- i want to do some out.printline statemets in servelt to see some of the data from the query - but i cant as it just forwrads the request to results.jsp - how can i output the data to look at debug - i dont have a log4j logger setup and dont have IDE to be able to place break points - so wanted to just output stuff to browser to have a look at what was going on - but can't as just forwards request on ?

    Can someone possibly point out some suggestions. Thanks, much appreciated.

    sorry ....
    How about going the extra mile and actually posting the error message you receive rather than expecting everyone to guess? The more pertinent information you can provide, the easier it is to answer your question. And you want your question answered easily and quickly, right?

  • What's wrong with this sql query?  Help

    hi
    i am having difficulty executing this query
    ResultSet s=st.executeQuery("select * from employee where iden = ?"+id);
    here in my program st is statement obg
    iden is attribute name in table
    id i am getting at run time from user
    please help...it says wrong number of parameters
    thank you

    That's correct, get rid of the Question mark. Questions marks are used in PreparedStatements, but they are also used in pattern matching. I am assuming the iden is the table identity. Therefore, I am assuming it is numeric. If so, you can't use the question mark because pattern matching is only done with strings. If you are treating your statement as a PreparedStatement, then you have done it wrong. (See the API) Here is a code snippet from the API:PreparedStatement pstmt =     
       con.prepareStatement("UPDATE EMPLOYEES SET SALARY = ? WHERE ID = ?");
    pstmt.setBigDecimal(1, 153833.00)
    pstmt.setInt(2, 110592)It seems you are using a Statement object, so, you need to get rid of that question mark.

  • Help requested: WHAT IS WRONG WITH THIS sql?

    I have two tables
    TABLE1
    ORG VARCHAR2(1)
    EMPNO VARCHAR2(10)
    UNION_DUES NUMBER(7,2)
    UNION_CODE VARCHAR2(5)
    TABLE2
    ORG VARCHAR2(1)
    EMPNO VARCHAR2(10)
    YEAR NUMBER(4)
    CODE2 VARCHAR2(5)
    EMPLOYEE_FIXED_AMOUNT NUMBER (7,2)
    ****** WHAT DO I WANT TO DO *****
    there is one entry for each employee in TABLE1. There are multiple entries for each employee in TABLE2. I want to update TABLE2 for all the employees in TABLE1.
    But only update those entries in TABLE2 where CODE2 = UNION_CODE and YEAR = 2002.
    ***** MY SQL ******
    update TABLE2
    set employee_fixed_amount =
    (select union_dues from TABLE1
    WHERE TABLE2.EMPNO = TABLE1.empno
    and TABLE2.org = TABLE1.org
    and TABLE2.code2 = TABLE1.union_code)
    where year = 2002;
    **** ORACLE ERROR PRODUCED ****
    ora-01407cannot update (table2.employee_fixed_amount) to null

    Either you have a NULL value for table1.union_dues or there is no match in table1 based on your criteria. So, you can check for these by:
    update TABLE2
       set employee_fixed_amount =
             (select union_dues
                from TABLE1
               where TABLE2.EMPNO = TABLE1.empno
                 and TABLE2.org = TABLE1.org
                 and TABLE2.code2 = TABLE1.union_code)
    where year = 2002
       and exists (select null
                     from table1
                    where table1.empno = table2.empno
                      and table1.org = table2.org
                      and table1.union_code = table2.code2
                      and table1.union_dues is not null);or, if it is alright that the employee_fixed_amount be set to 0 when there is no match or the union_dues is NULL, then:
    update TABLE2
       set employee_fixed_amount =
             nvl((select union_dues
                    from TABLE1
                   where TABLE2.EMPNO = TABLE1.empno
                     and TABLE2.org = TABLE1.org
                     and TABLE2.code2 = TABLE1.union_code), 0)
    where year = 2002;

  • Can someone tell me what's wrong with this LOV query please?

    This query works fine..
    select FILTER_NAME display_value, FILTER_ID return_value
    from OTMGUI_FILTER where username = 'ADAM'
    But this one..
    select FILTER_NAME display_value, FILTER_ID return_value
    from OTMGUI_FILTER where username = apex_application.g_user
    Gives the following error.
    1 error has occurred
    * LOV query is invalid, a display and a return value are needed, the column names need to be different. If your query contains an in-line query, the first FROM clause in the SQL statement must not belong to the in-line query.
    Thanks very much,
    -Adam vonNieda

    Ya know, I still don't know what's wrong with this.
    declare
    l_val varchar2(100) := nvl(apex_application.g_user,'ADAM');
    begin
    return 'select filter_name display_value, filter_id return_value
    from otmgui_filter where username = '''|| l_val || '''';
    end;
    Gets the same error as above. All I'm trying to do is create a dropdown LOV which selects based on the apex_application.g_user.
    What am I missing here?
    Thanks,

    ORA-00604: error occurred at recursive SQL level 1
    ORA-00972: identifier is too long

    Hi Alex,
    Subquery factoring a.k.a. the with-clause should be possible on 9.2:
    http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B10501_01/server.920/a96540/statements_103a.htm#2075888
    (used it myself as well on 9.2)
    @OP
    I recall having problems myself using PL/SQL Developer and trying to get the with clause to work on 9.2 some years ago.
    A workaround might be to create a view based on the query.
    Also, your error message is "ORA-00972: identifier is too long"...
    http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14219/e900.htm#sthref419
    Can't test things currently, no 9.2 available at the moment, but perhaps tomorrow I'll have a chance.
