Column Not Allowed Here? Why?

CREATE TABLE course_location(
     venue_id number(6),
     street_address varchar2(30),
     postal_code varchar2(8),
     county varchar2(16),
     PRIMARY KEY (venue_id)
INSERT INTO course_location (venue_id, street_address, postal_code, county)
VALUES (162, '9 Illing Way', 'PO13 3HA', Hampshire);
INSERT INTO course_location (venue_id, street_address, postal_code, county)
VALUES (287, '18 Hating Place', 'SO13 4DA', Hampshire);
INSERT INTO course_location (venue_id, street_address, postal_code, county)
VALUES (91, '24 Lauren Way', 'SO17 6TA', Hampshire);
INSERT INTO course_location (venue_id, street_address, postal_code, county)
VALUES (61, '9 Wotton Way', 'SL6 3ED', Berkshire);
INSERT INTO course_location (venue_id, street_address, postal_code, county)
VALUES (19, '10 Soul Lane', 'GU21 7TA', Berkshire);

'Hampshire' - this is a string literal
Hampshire - this is an identifier, probably a column name (of course there is no column called HAMPSHIRE in your table, but even if there was one it cannot be referenced here).
Do you see the difference?
You are missing ' '.
Yes, I agree - the error message could be more human-friendly :)

Thank you very much for the update to this old question
After reading the link I think I should ignore this error and accept it as ORA-01402
The information you asked me to check did not lead me an understanding of different error types.

Virtual Column not allowed here Error

Hi All,
I am facing "Virtual Column not allowed here" Error when running a simple select statement. I have identified that if I am removing a primary key constraint and an index on top of month table which is used in the SQL solving this issue. But want to know the exact reason of this error. FYI I am having two indexes on Month_end_date_key (which is also a primary key) and Month_end_date. Could you please let me know the reason for this.
FYI I am not doing any insert,update deletion operations. I am using only the tables in the SQL not using any views.
Regards,
Radhakrishna

Cause: An attempt was made to use an INSERT, UPDATE, or DELETE statement on an expression in a view.
Action: INSERT, UPDATE, or DELETE data in the base tables, instead of the view.

ORA-00984 Column not allowed here. Please help.

Hey, I have made a table;
CREATE TABLE Borrower (
BorId VARCHAR2(5) NOT NULL,
BorName VARCHAR2(20),
BorMaxBooks NUMBER(10),
PRIMARY KEY (BorId));
I am trying to enter values into this table;
INSERT INTO Borrower VALUES (
001, "Jack Jones", 5);
And I get an error; ORA-00984 Column not allowed here. Please can anyone help?? I have tried changing BorName VARCHAR2(20) to BorName CHAR(20) and everything I can think of.

Hi sorry to bother you again but is it the same method as in MySQL to enter multiple data at once?
I am trying to save time by entering all the contents of a table all at once,
Would it be;
INSERT INTO Borrower (BorId, BorName, BorMaxBooks) VALUES (
(001, 'Bob', 4),
(002, 'James', 5),
(003, 'Dave', 6);
Thanks.

Edited by: LostNoob on Aug 25, 2012 2:24 PM

First, when you write an INSERT statement, it's always good to list the columns that you're inserting into. That makes the code easier to follow-- you don't have to separately pull up the table definition to know what order columns are inserted. And it makes the code more maintainable since the statement won't become invalid if you add a new column to the table in the future.
Second, CHANGE_DATE, CHANGE_USER, and ACTION are not (presumably) functions and they are not local variables so it doesn't make sense to use them in an INSERT statement. You would need to write code or leverage existing functions to populate those columns. I'm guessing, for example, that you want to use SYSDATE to populate the CHANGE_DATE and USER to populate the CHANGE_USER column. My guess is that ACTION should always be a 'U' for UPDATE.
Third, it appears that you left off the :old on the DEPTNO column.
Putting it all together, you'd have something like
CREATE OR REPLACE TRIGGER trig_emp_audit
BEFORE UPDATE ON emp
FOR EACH ROW
BEGIN
INSERT INTO emp_audit(
      audit_uid,
      change_date,
      change_user,
      action,
      enpno,
      ename,
      job,
      mgr,
      hiredate,
      sal,
      comm,
      deptno )
    VALUES(
      emp_audit_seq.nextval,
      sysdate,
      user,
      'U',
     :old.empno,
     :old.ename,
     :old.job,
     :old.mgr,
     :old.hiredate,

[mumblejumble ...]
THEN
INSERT INTO "PROJECT"."T_HISTORY" (subtopic_id, change_date, old_schedule_date, old_description, changes_id) VALUES (
var_subtopic_id,
TO_DATE(sysdate,'DD.MM.YY'),
var_old_schedule_date,
var_old_decription,
'1');
troublemaker is this line:
TO_DATE(sysdate,'DD.MM.YY'),
Gives ORA-00984. I tried a single sysdate as well, same problem.
Somebody got a clue or workaround? I can't figure out how to insert the sysdate another way.
Regards,
Thomas

Here you go, this is the current version:
CREATE OR REPLACE
TRIGGER TRIGGER_TEST_HISTORY BEFORE UPDATE OR DELETE ON T_SUBTOPICS
DECLARE
var_subtopic_id NUMBER(6);
var_old_schedule_date DATE;
var_old_description VARCHAR2(1000);
BEGIN
/* Trigger soll Datensätze nach t_history kopieren, zusammen mit einer Beschreibung der Änderung!
/* Datensätze aus Tabelle holen */
SELECT subtopic_id, schedule_date, description INTO var_subtopic_id, var_old_schedule_date, var_old_description FROM t_subtopics;
/* Abfragen, wie geändert wurde */
IF UPDATING
THEN
INSERT INTO "PROJECT"."T_HISTORY" (subtopic_id, change_date, old_schedule_date, old_description, changes_id) VALUES (
var_subtopic_id,
sysdate,
var_old_schedule_date,
var_old_decription,
'1');
/* Oder gelöscht? */
ELSIF DELETING
THEN
INSERT INTO "PROJECT"."T_HISTORY" (subtopic_id, change_date, old_schedule_date, old_description, changes_id) VALUES (
var_subtopic_id,
sysdate,
var_old_schedule_date,
var_old_decription,
'2');
END IF;
END;
Pretty primitive, but that was the first way that came into my mind.
Edited spelling mistake

When Closing the window giving error " Virtual Column not allowed"

Hi All,
In my main block, i have a button, on clicking which will open a new window(block) with a free text field to enter.
I have a Save button in a new window which will save entered text fiedl and refresh the main block to see the value entered in a new block.
But suppose, if entered something in text field and without saving if i close the window and try to exit from the form
It is asking me to save the form or not and if i press Yes
Then it gives me below error
ORA-01733: virtual column not allowed here
FRM-40508: ORACLE error: unable to INSERT record.
If i see from Display database error' It is trying to insert the record into the view On which my new block has based( i know it is not possible).
Any suggestion on this please?
Thanks,
pavan

Pavan,
How are you populating your block? It sounds like you are populating the block manually (eg; Looping through a cursor and assigning values to each row of your block). If this is what you are doing, then YES you will get these kinds of errors. Ideally, you should base your data block on your data (either directly on the base table or view of if you are using a query, then a FROM Clause based block).
I'm guessing here, so would you mind posting a description of your data block(s) is/are set up?

Sequence Number does not allowed here

Hi,
I am inserting rows in a table called membership with seqence number membership_id.nextval. But i am getting error like
"Sequence number not allowed here"
Before i inserted about 3852 rows in that table
Here is the statement i am using
INSERT INTO MEMBERSHIP (membership_id,ACTIVIST_ID,G_N_ID,ROLE_ID,
REGION_ID,START_dATE,END_DATE,STATUS,state_id)
SELECT membership_id.nextval,a.activist_id,G.g_n_id,R.ROLE_ID,
'',mwlgmemship.start_date,'','Active',''
FROM activist a,
role r,
group_network g,
final.mwlgmemship mwlgmemship,final.mwlgmem mwlgmem
WHERE
a.first_name=mwlgmem.fname and a.last_name=mwlgmem.lname and a.c_zip_code=mwlgmem.czip and
a.c_country=mwlgmem.country and mwlgmem.person_id=mwlgmemship.person_id and
to_char(mwlgmemship.grno)=g.g_n_reference and mwlgmemship.role_id=r.role_id order by r.role_id
I could not understand the problem, please help me
I am selecting the other fields from other tables.
Thanks

Restrictions on Sequence Values You cannot use CURRVAL and NEXTVAL in the following constructs:
A subquery in a DELETE, SELECT, or UPDATE statement
A query of a view or of a materialized view
A SELECT statement with the DISTINCT operator
A SELECT statement with a GROUP BY clause or ORDER BY clause
A SELECT statement that is combined with another SELECT statement with the UNION, INTERSECT, or MINUS set operator
The WHERE clause of a SELECT statement
The DEFAULT value of a column in a CREATE TABLE or ALTER TABLE statement
The condition of a CHECK constraintAbove text is from the sql reference manual.
