DBMS_LOB.CONVERTTOBLOB invalid LOB locator specified: ORA-22275

Hi all,
the following code has been working great on 11g (and apex.oracle.com)
now when I try to use this function under 10g XE
I get following error :
ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: invalid LOB locator specified: ORA-22275
ORA-06512: at "SYS.DBMS_LOB", line 696
ORA-06512: at "RIGHTSHOP.C2B", line 14line 14 being the line with DBMS_LOB.CONVERTTOBLOB
any ideas ?

    You can do it, assigning the empty_clob().

  • ORA-22275 :invalid LOB locator specified error while loading BLOBs/CLOBS.

    Hello All,
    I am trying to load BLOB/CLOB data from a client oracle DB to the oracle db on our side,we are using ODI version 10.1.3.5.6,which reportedly has the issue of loading BLOB/CLOBS solved.I am using
    The extraction fails in the loading stage when inserting data into the C$ table with the following error.
    "22275:99999 :java.sql.BatchUpdateException:ORA-22275:Invalid LOB locator specified".
    Kindly let me know how I can resolve this issue as the requirement to load this data is very urgent.
    Thanks,
    John

    One alternate way can be done out of ODI as ODI is still not able to resolve this issue. You can trim these fields (CLOB/BLOB) and push this data as separate fields into ODI and at the reporting end you can again concatenate them.
    May be this may solve your problem ....it solved mine.

  • Oracle 11g - Error ORA-22275: invalid LOB locator specified

    Getting error during oBlob.freeTemporary() as
    clearBlobValues() throws Exception
    oracle.sql.BLOB oBlob = oset.getBLOB(i);
    oBlob.freeTemporary();
    I googled this error and get some solution
    "Cause: There are several causes: (1) the LOB locator was never initialized; (2) the locator is for a BFILE and the routine expects a BLOB/CLOB/NCLOB locator; (3) the locator is for a BLOB/CLOB/NCLOB and the routine expects a BFILE locator; (4) trying to update the LOB in a trigger body -- LOBs in trigger bodies are read only; (5) the locator is for a BFILE/BLOB and the routine expects a CLOB/NCLOB locator; (6) the locator is for a CLOB/NCLOB and the routine expects a BFILE/BLOB locator;
    Action: For (1), initialize the LOB locator by selecting into the locator variable or by setting the LOB locator to empty. For (2),(3), (5) and (6)pass the correct type of locator into the routine. For (4), remove the trigger body code that updates the LOB value."
    but not sure how to go about this. Can anyone lends a helping hand?
    Thanx in advance

    You should try to post a small but complete example that allows to reproduce the issue with:
    1. your 4 digits Oracle version (client and server)
    2. the language you are using.

  • ORA-22275: invalid LOB locator specified in a function

    Hello all!!!
    I am having a little problem with a function that returns a blob... When I call the function, I get that error... Here is the function (I took all the exception management code to clear it up a little...)
    <CODE>
    FUNCTION f_getfileblob (p_id IN NUMBER,
    p_application IN VARCHAR2,
    p_subject IN VARCHAR2)
    RETURN BLOB
    IS
    v_table_name VARCHAR2(50);
    v_sql_string VARCHAR2(1000);
    lobfile BLOB := empty_blob();
    v_error NUMBER;
    BEGIN
    SELECT TABLE_NAME INTO v_table_name FROM ORACLE_TEXT_FILE WHERE APPLICATION = p_application AND SUBJECT = p_subject;
    v_sql_string := 'SELECT FILE_BLOB FROM ' || v_table_name || ' WHERE id = :1';
    EXECUTE IMMEDIATE v_sql_string INTO lobfile USING p_id;
    RETURN lobfile;
    END;
    </CODE>
    So, in this function, the first select is to find the name of the table in which I store my blobs (I'm trying to do something generic and cross application). Once I have that name, I can do the select of the blob. I can only use dynamic SQL because of the table name that is not known in advance.
    I tried this function with
    DBMS_LOB.CREATETEMPORARY(LOBFILE, TRUE, DBMS_LOB.CALL);
    to create the lob at the begining, but this returns another error... (i tried with and without the initialisation of the blob, empty_blob())
    ORA-24801: illegal parameter value in OCI lob function. But I don't even know if it would help...
    Can somebody please help me?
    Thanks and best regards
    Neil.

    Sorry about that, error came from elsewhere...
    Thanks anyway
    Best regards
    Neil.

  • DBMS_LOB.ISOPEN throws the error ora-22275 invalid lob locator

    DBMS_LOB.ISOPEN throws the error below error.
    ora-22275 invalid lob locator
    The below assume that i am getting the v_lob_length as empty. But i am getting error when it comes to DBMS_LOB.ISOPEN.
    Please correct me if i am wrong.
    here is my code:
    DBMS_LOB.createtemporary(v_xml_clob, TRUE);
    DBMS_LOB.open(v_xml_clob, DBMS_LOB.lob_readwrite);
    SELECT  DBMS_XMLGEN.getxml ('SELECT object_name, object_type from dba_objects where rownum <= 5')
    INTO    v_xml_clob
    FROM    DUAL;
    v_lob_length    := NVL(DBMS_LOB.getlength(v_xml_clob),0);
    v_index       := 1;
    fnd_file.put_line(fnd_file.log,'v_lob_length : '||v_lob_length);
    WHILE v_index <= v_lob_length
    LOOP
        v_read_cnt   := 32767;
        DBMS_LOB.read (
              v_xml_clob,
              v_read_cnt,
              v_index,
              v_chunk
        fnd_file.put(fnd_file.output,v_chunk);
        v_index := v_index + v_read_cnt;
    END LOOP;
    IF DBMS_LOB.ISOPEN(v_xml_clob) = 1
    THEN
        DBMS_LOB.close(v_xml_clob);
        DBMS_LOB.freetemporary(v_xml_clob);
    END IF;

    Most likely v_xml_clob is NULL so you'd rather check IF v_xml_clob IS NOT NULL AND DBMS_LOB.ISOPEN(v_xml_clob) = 1
    THENbye

  • Using DBMS_LOB.COPY - (ORA-22275)

    Hi All,
    I need to copy BLOB value from one table to another.
    For that i am using DBMS_LOB.COPY.
    I am not sure if this is the right approach. If not, can someone help me out.
    Mentioned below is my sample procedure:
    CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE INS_UPD_BLOB
    i_ID number,
    o_OutputStatus OUT NUMBER,
    o_OutputMessage OUT VARCHAR2
    as
    v_blob_data_d blob;
    v_blob_data_s blob;
    amt INTEGER := 4000;
    begin
    select BLOB_DATA
    into v_blob_data_d
    from blob_test_dest -- My Destination Table
    where id = i_ID
    for update;
    select BLOB_DATA
    into v_blob_data_s
    from blob_test -- My Source Table
    where id = i_ID;
    DBMS_LOB.COPY(v_blob_data_d, v_blob_data_s, amt);
    o_OutputStatus := 0;
    o_OutputMessage := 'SUCCESS';
    EXCEPTION
    WHEN OTHERS THEN
    o_OutputStatus := -1;
    o_OutputMessage := 'Procedure ins_upd_blob Failed at step no:- '||v_ErrorFlag|| ' SQL ERROR:- '||SUBSTR(SQLERRM,1,100);
    END;
    After execution i am getting following error:
    ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: invalid LOB locator specified: ORA-22275
    Thanks,
    Srikanth

    how about using merge instead of dbms_lob package?
    CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE INS_UPD_BLOB
    i_ID number,
    o_OutputStatus OUT NUMBER,
    o_OutputMessage OUT VARCHAR2)
    as
    v_blob_data_d blob;
    v_blob_data_s blob;
    amt INTEGER := 4000;
    begin
    merge into blob_test_dest b1
    using (select id, blob_data from blob_test) b2
    on (b1.id = i_id and b1.id = b2.id)
    when not matched then insert(b1.id, b1.blob_data) values(b2.id,b2.blob_data)
    when matched then update set b1.blob_data = b2.blob_data;
    END;

    Thanks Roger.
    I did add those in... DBA insists that didn't matter, since explicit "select" privs were granted to CRT_DEV to select CRT tables. He did say that a length check was required on the CLOBS before appedning them to the destination lob (tlob) to prevent NULL lob locators being appended and raising the exception.
    In any case, it works now... however, unsure if it's due to the schema prefix on the tables, or the lob length checks...

  • LOB locater from Java?

    I seem to be having a problem with getting a CLOB from a Java stored procedure. I have
    public class TheJava {
    public static CLOB getData(int arg){. . .
    which is specified by
    FUNCTION getClobData(a IN NUMBER)RETURN CLOB
    AS LANGUAGE JAVA
    NAME 'TheJava.getData(int) return oracle.sql.CLOB'
    I also have the utility procedure to write it out
    PROCEDURE printClobOut(result IN OUT NOCOPY CLOB) is
    xmlstr varchar2(32767);
    line varchar2(2000);
    begin
    xmlstr := dbms_lob.SUBSTR(result,32767);
    loop
    exit when xmlstr is null;
    line := substr(xmlstr,1,instr(xmlstr,chr(10))-1);
    dbms_output.put_line('| '||line);
    xmlstr := substr(xmlstr,instr(xmlstr,chr(10))+1);
    end loop;
    end;
    So if I try
    declare
    c CLOB;
    begin
    dbms_lob.createtemporary(c,true);
    c:=getlegendasxml(1);
    printclobout(c);
    dbms_lob.freetemporary(c);
    end;
    I get
    ORA-22275: invalid LOB locator specified
    ORA-06512: at "SYS.DBMS_LOB", line 739
    ORA-06512: at "PRINTCLOBOUT", line 5
    ORA-06512: at line 6
    Really, I have no idea what I have to do to get the right locater. Any suggestions are much appreciated.

    Yes, I suspect it is the Java that is causing the problem. The code is below. I can't see that there is anything unusual here so why should there be a locater problem?
    import java.io.IOException;
    import java.io.Writer;
    import java.sql.*;
    import oracle.sql.CLOB;
    public class TheJava {
    public static CLOB getData(int arg) throws SQLException{
    Connection conx = null;
    String message = new String();
    CLOB tempClob = null;
    Writer tempClobWriter = null;
    try{
    conx = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:default:connection:");
    tempClob = oracle.sql.CLOB.createTemporary(conx, true, oracle.sql.CLOB.DURATION_SESSION);
    tempClob.open(oracle.sql.CLOB.MODE_READWRITE);
    tempClobWriter = tempClob.getCharacterOutputStream();
    }catch(SQLException sqlexp){
    message = "! CLOB problem.\n ";
    message += sqlexp.getMessage();
    if(tempClob!=null){
    //line A is next line
    tempClob.putString(1,message);
    return tempClob;
    }//end if tempclob
    }catch(Exception exp){
    message = "! Some other exception.\n ";
    message += exp.getMessage();
    if(tempClob!=null){
    tempClob.putString(1,message);
    return tempClob;
    }//end if tempclob
    }finally{
    if(tempClob!=null){ tempClob.freeTemporary(); }
    if(conx != null){ conx.close(); }
    }//end try catch
    In an earlier test I was getting an error reported at line A (I had tried to start from position 0).
