Delete record No data found exception

Hi,
I have a query like this in a procedure:
Select c_on_file into v from table1 where id =pid;
If(v =0 ) then
Delete from table1 where id=pid;
If passed id not exist in table1 then there is no value for the c_on_file so I am getting No_data found exception. How to overcome this?
Here my requirement is if c_on_file =1 for the specific id I don't want to delete the record from the table else delete that record.
Thanks

Why don't you write something like this:
Delete from table1
where id = pid
and c_on_file = 0;

No Data Found Exception in bulk updates

I am trying to catch no data found exception in bulk updates when it does not find a record to update in the forall loop.

If I do not handle this exception, the script fails when it attempts to update a record that does not exist and the error says : no data found exception.
Thanks for your help.

No Data Found isn't an exception raised when an UPDATE cannot find any records to process.
SQL%ROWCOUNT can be used to determine the number of rows affected by an update statement, but if 0 rows are updated then no exception will be raised (it's just not how things work).
If you post your actual CURSOR (casualty) declaration, it's quite possible we can help you create a single SQL statement to meet your requirement (a single SQL will be faster than your current implementation).
Have you looked in to using the MERGE command?

No Data Found: Exception in SQL inside PL/SQL block

Hi Friends
I am trying to execute an SQL SELECT stmt inside a PL/SQL block. But when i execute the procedure, it gives me No Data Found Exception.
I know it is because no row is fetched in the query, but the condition of the SELECT query i have specified is being satisfied, i have checked it by running it on the SQL prompt.
But somehow, it is not running from inside the PL/SQL procedure.Can anybody help me out on this as to why is this happening?? I am giving my code for reference and have Highlighted the Query inside it:

No Data Found Exception

I'm getting No Data found exception while selecting a query.
I'm trying to insert into a table by selecting records from a table.
I'm doing this inside a loop. So I need to continue with insertion even though i get this error( NO DATA FOUND). How can this be done?
Any help?
Eg.
FOR id IN (select Emp_ID from Table A)
Begin
LOOP
BEGIN
Select COL_B INTO Var_X from Table B where COL_C = id.EMPID;
EXCEPTION
NO DATA FOUND ---- I need to go for insertion even though i get this error
END
---- Insertion Goes here to TABLE_C
----- Inserting VAR_X into the TABLE_C along with other Columns
END LOOP
END
Thanks

What you have should work. Are you saying thet the exception handler doesn't catch the exception? If that is the case then it must be another exception. You could change the exceptiuon handler to be a when others (which will catch everything) or you could just decalre a cursor which you open, fetch from, and then close. If no data is found you won't get an exception, but your variables won't be null unless you reset them every time you go round the loop.
Obviously the no data found exception is actually no_data_found (i.e. with underscores) but your code wouldn't compile if you missed out the underscores so you must have that right.

IR report - No Data Found exception

Hi,
I have created one IR report in apex. I need to get the no data found exception on this report i.e. if user enters some search keywords and he is getting no data in that case want to store the searched keywords in the database for future reference that there is no data for such search criteria.
Could anyone help me to catch the no data found exception and executing a pl-sql process for fetching the search criteria ?
Thanks in advance!

I have created an IR report based on collections. But still I am not able to understand where I can write a code for EXCEPTION NO_DATA_FOUND. The pl-sql code used to create a collection which we write in before header process and the actuall IR report which is build using SQL query on collection so where can I put the exception code?
What I want is to catch no data found exception when user types something in IR report search bar and gets nothing as a search result. Can you please help me on this?
Thanks,

No data found exception: no data found: [1299] error in Procedure

Hi all,
I am getting "no data found exception: no data found: [1299] " in SAP HANA procedure, even if data for the corresponding plant and material is present in the respective tables.
Can any-one suggest why I am getting this and what would be the resolution of the same.
Regards
dhinesh.

Hi Dhinesh,
Ok. It seems you have some condition in your SQL and it gets fail. It is best practice to capture SQL exception in all your store procedure to avoid such errors .
Either you can capture the exception and write in a table if your procedure runs in background or simply throw the SQL exception message from dummy table.
Check exceptional handling in SAP Documentation

Regarding "select into" query and "no data found" exception

So i have included the following into my procedure:
select div_cd into c_div_cd
               from division_tab d, emp_tab y
               where d.div_name=y.div_text and y.emp_code=d.emp_code;
and also an exception
exception
when no data found
-- print something
The above select query results into "no data found" and the control passes directly to the exception and prints something.
How do I do the following?
select div_cd into c_div_cd
               from division_tab d, emp_tab y
               where d.div_name=y.div_text and y.emp_code=d.emp_code;
if c_div_cd is null then
--enter this employee into some other table without raising an exception
No need to write a code for an answer. Please just guide me with something I can incorporate or do.

use explicit cursors
DECLARE
c_div_cd division_tab.div_cd%type;
cursor c_div is
select div_cd
from division_tab d, emp_tab y
where d.div_name=y.div_text and y.emp_code=d.emp_code;
BEGIN
open c_div;
fetch c_div into c_div_cd;
--You can either use c_div%NOTFOUND or c_div_cd is null in the below if condition to check the data
-- Note if your select query returns multiple records then you have to do mutiple fetches for getting all records, so in that case your FETCH
-- should be inside the LOOP statement
if c_div_cd is null then
--enter this employee into some other table without raising an exception

Forms application returns "ORA-01403 no data found" exception on Windows 7

Hi everyone,
I am currently involved in an application compatibility project for an O/S migration from Windows XP to Windows 7.
We have a legacy Oracle Dev6i P18 Forms application that has been working perfectly on Windows XP for the last decade or so. When we installed the same application on Windows 7, it returned a pop-up error message with the text: "ORA-01403 no data found" when performing a certain operation (clicking on a Submit button in a specific form). The same operation works successfully on Windows XP displaying the message "Submit has been successful".
This error is well documented and the solution involves adding an exception handler to the faulting SQL statement(s) in order to handle the ORA-01403 exception. Unfortunately, the application is composed of compiled forms (.FMX) and we no longer have the source code so I can't implement this solution.
I ran a file comparison utility (WinDiff from the Windows SDK) and confirmed that all the files in the application folder and the Oracle Dev6i P18 folder are identical on both the Windows XP and Windows 7 systems.
I enabled tracing in SQLNet.ORA by configuring TRACE_LEVEL_CLIENT=SUPPORT (I know, too verbose) and other related settings on both systems and have uploaded the traces to my SkyDrive for public viewing:
http://sdrv.ms/10BNYtI
The traces show that the "ORA-01403" exception occurs many times on both Windows XP and Windows 7 systems as a result of various SQL statements being executed, for instance:
SELECT TASK_ID,TASK_DETAIL_STATUS,ASSIGNED_DATE FROM TASK_DETAILS WHERE TASK_ID = :b1 AND TASK_DETAIL_STATUS = (SELECT ID FROM V_TASK_STATUS WHERE ABBREVIATION = 'PLANNED' ) FOR UPDATE OF TASK_DETAIL_STATUS,ASSIGNED_DATE
UPDATE TASK_DETAILS SET ASSIGNED_DATE=NTMS_UTIL.GET_SERVER_DATE,TASK_DETAIL_STATUS=(SELECT ID FROM V_TASK_STATUS WHERE ABBREVIATION = 'ASSIGNED' ) WHERE ROWID = :b1
ORA-01403: no data found.
So the same error happens on both Windows XP and Windows 7.
On Windows XP, the error is somehow handled, and does not cause the "Submit" operation to fail.
On Windows 7, however, the error bubbles to the surface and is displayed to the user, thus halting the "Submit" operation.

Thank you. I'm well aware that adding an exception handler is the classic solution to the ORA-01403 error. However, like I mentioned in my original post, I don't have the source code. All I have are the compiled .FMX forms so I can't implement such a solution:

No data found exception when calling a new page from existing page

hi i have a screen which has a delivery id and i am calling a new page with a different view object and a application module.I need to pass this delivery id in the main page to the view object query in the second page.
i have defined the second page view object with the following query
select country,address1,address2,address3,address4,city from hz_locations where location_id=
(select ultimate_dropoff_location_id from wsh_new_deliveries where delivery_id=:1)
what i want is to pass the delivery id in the main page to :1 in this query.
i have written the following CO code for the second page
public void processRequest(OAPageContext pageContext, OAWebBean webBean)
super.processRequest(pageContext, webBean);
String eventaction=pageContext.getParameter("xxsaneventname");
String paramval=pageContext.getParameter("xxsanparamvalue1");
OAApplicationModule deliverydetailam = pageContext.getApplicationModule(webBean);
Serializable personParamList[]= {eventaction,paramval};
if ( eventaction!=null && eventaction.equals("viewdelivery"))
deliverydetailam.invokeMethod("getdetailsmethod", personParamList);
i have written the getdetailsmethod in the application module impl
public void getdetailsmethod( String pAction, String pdeliveryId)
try
OAViewObjectImpl pervo = getWshDeliveryDetailsVO1();
String existingWhereClause = pervo.getWhereClause() ;
System.out.println(existingWhereClause);
pervo.setWhereClauseParams(null);
pervo.setWhereClause("delivery_id = :1");
pervo.setWhereClauseParam(0, new Number(pdeliveryId));
pervo.executeQuery();
pervo.setWhereClauseParams(null);
//pervo.setWhereClause(existingWhereClause);
catch(Exception exception1)
throw OAException.wrapperException(exception1);
can some body please help me to correct this one.
the exception i got is
oracle.apps.fnd.framework.OAException: No data found for region (/xxt/oracle/apps/AK/om/webui/deliverydetailpg).

Provide the complete error stack.
From the current error line it shows that your custom region/page /xxt/oracle/apps/AK/om/webui/deliverydetailpg is not present in the MDS. Did you use xmlimport to set the page xml into MDS? If yes, use jdr_utils package to confirm it is present at the right location.

Jdbc handling of no data found exception in a trigger

Hi,
I am using Oracle 11.1.0.6 oci jdbc driver.
When an insert statement fails due to a before insert trigger throwing a ora-01403, the jdbc driver does not throw an exception. From what I can find on MetaLink its because its considered a warning. Now I know that in the past the thin driver did not work this way, it was considered an error.
Does anyone know a good reference to look that explains how this is supposed to work as standard. Is what the Oracle oci driver doing in 11G standard?
Thanks
Pete

Hi,
I looked at the getWarnings method. But when I use this for the statement object it does not return anything. Even though Note 101528.1 says that this condition is treated as a warning.

ORA-01403 No DATA FOUND Error

Hi all,
I have a Select Statement and when there is no record returned by the select I have the following error :
ORA-01403 NO DATA FOUND. Is there a parameter or something I can change to avoid this error to occure ?
Any help will be appreciated.
Kind regards.
SÃ©bastien.

The following query returns no row and an Exception ORA-01403 NO DATA FOUND occurs when I execute the statement.
OPEN curs_Dealers FOR
Select DD.DealerID, DEDP.FullName
FROM D_Dealer DD, D_EditionDealerParticipation DEDP, T_LAnguage TL
WHERE DEDP.FairEditionID = FairEditionID_ AND
DEDP.DealerID = DD.DealerID AND
DD.LanguageID = TL.LanguageID AND
TL.LanguageTranslationID = LanguageID_
ORDER BY FullName;
The following query does not return any result either and there is no ORA 01403 NO DATA FOUND Exception thrown.
It just returns an empty cursor.
OPEN curs_Object FOR
SELECT TOb.Title, DO.EntityID, DO.ObjectID
FROM D_Object DO, T_Object TOb, D_Dealer DD
WHERE DO.ObjectID = TOb.ObjectID AND
TOb.LanguageID = Language_ID AND
DO.DealerID = DD.DealerID AND
DD.SiteID = Site_ID
ORDER BY TOb.Title;
Do you have any idea why those query does not returns the same thing?
I'm using Oracle 10G

"no data found" in SVG Line Chart

Hello,
I have a problem with a SVG Line Chart!
I have multiple series in the Line Chart, which data is based on multiple select lists.
When I leave one select list blank, so that one line has no data, the "no data found" statement appears in the Chart.
But when I delete the "no data found" statement in the Series Attributes it would not be deleted. Nevertheless when I open the Series Attributes again the message is still there....
Does anybody have an idea how I van delete the "No Data found Message"???
Thanks,
Tim

Chris and Cristoph -
I have found that many times errors like this are caused by SQL statements that don't really address the business need or the requirements for the chart. Let me use a simple example:
SELECT d.dept_name dept_name,
       sum(s.sales_total) sales_total
FROM orders o, depts d
WHERE o.dept_id = d.dept_id
AND o.time_frame = 'Q1'
GROUP BY dept_nameSeems simple enough. But what if this statement is run early during the Q1 timeframe and one dept hasn't made any sales yet? Well, they won't show up in the output of this statement. From a business perspective, you will want that dept to show on the report with a zero total sales. You don't want them excluded from the report. So how do we fix this?
There are several options.
One dirty way of solving this is putting in a dummy record for each dept into the orders table with a 0 sales_total value for each time unit. YUK! That has wrong written all over it!
We could use a different type of join. And then use NVL or a Case or IF statement to turn Null Values into 0.
SELECT d.dept_name dept_name,
       sum(nvl(s.sales_total,0)) sales_total
FROM orders o RIGHT JOIN dept d ON d.dept_id = o.dept_id
WHERE o.time_frame = 'Q1'
GROUP BY dept_nameWe could also square our data sets and summarize with an inner select
SELECT dept_name dept_name,
       sum(sales_total) sales_total
FROM (
SELECT d.dept_name ,
         sum(s.sales_total) sales_total
FROM orders o, dept d
WHERE o.dept_id = d.dept_id
    AND o.time_frame = 'Q1'
GROUP BY dept_name
UNION ALL
SELECT DISTINCT dept_name ,
         0 sales_total
FROM dept
GROUP BY dept_nameThe final result is that every dept has a value. That is the key. This is how the chart expects the data and this is probably how your business expects the data.

Catch No Data Found error on APEX form

I have an apex form which I am populating based on two fields passed over from another report.
In some instances, there is no data in the database for the information passed over. In that case I want the users to be able to add a row to the database through the form.
However, the form does not return at all as it says No Data Found.
Is there a way to catch the No Data Found exception and display the form blank so the users can enter the correct info?
Please advise.
Thank you.

Hi,
One thing you could try:
Create a page process that runs Before Header (that is, before the "Fetch Row..." process) that is a process Category of "Session State" and a process type of "Clear Cache for all Items on Pages (PageID,PageID,PageID)". This could be conditional on a NOT EXISTS SQL query based on selecting 1 from your table where the field1 = parameter1 and field2 = parameter2. That way, if there is no record, the page cache should be cleared, your parameters are set to null and a new record can be created. You could also do a similar thing using PL/SQL by setting :P2_PK1 and :P2_PK2 (or whatever your fields are) to NULL.

Weird no data found error in Pro*C

Hi,
I am getting a no data found error when I am making a query on all_constraints and all_cons_columns in my pro*C program. It is sure that the row exists.
I am writing here the block of pro*C code. The count returned by printf statement gives 7, which means 7 records are there. But the second query raise no data found exception. Please note that both the queries have same where clause. Pls suggest.
EXEC SQL SELECT count(*) INTO :count:h_count
FROM ALL_CONSTRAINTS AC,
ALL_CONS_COLUMNS ACC
WHERE AC.TABLE_NAME = ACC.TABLE_NAME
AND AC.CONSTRAINT_NAME = ACC.CONSTRAINT_NAME
AND AC.TABLE_NAME = 'CDA_BOOK_STATUS';
printf(" The count of constraints is %d\n",count);
/* this raises no data found ??? **/
EXEC SQL SELECT SUBSTR(AC.TABLE_NAME,1,30) table_name,
SUBSTR(ACC.COLUMN_NAME,1,30) column_name,
SUBSTR(ACC.CONSTRAINT_NAME,1,30) constraint_name,
AC.CONSTRAINT_TYPE INTO :constraint_arr INDICATOR :h_constraint_arr
FROM ALL_CONSTRAINTS AC,
ALL_CONS_COLUMNS ACC
WHERE AC.TABLE_NAME = ACC.TABLE_NAME
AND AC.CONSTRAINT_NAME = ACC.CONSTRAINT_NAME
AND AC.TABLE_NAME = 'CDA_BOOK_STATUS';

Are you getting the 'NO DATA FOUND 'error when you use 4 sets of normal and indicator variables?
For example,
EXEC SQL SELECT SUBSTR(AC.TABLE_NAME,1,30) table_name,
SUBSTR(ACC.COLUMN_NAME,1,30) column_name,
SUBSTR(ACC.CONSTRAINT_NAME,1,30) constraint_name,
AC.CONSTRAINT_TYPE INTO :col1_arr INDICATOR :col1_ind,
:col2_arr INDICATOR :col2_ind,:col3_arr INDICATOR :col3_ind,:co14_arr INDICATOR :col4_ind
FROM ALL_CONSTRAINTS AC,
ALL_CONS_COLUMNS ACC
WHERE AC.TABLE_NAME = ACC.TABLE_NAME
AND AC.CONSTRAINT_NAME = ACC.CONSTRAINT_NAME
AND AC.TABLE_NAME = 'CDA_BOOK_STATUS';Indicator variables may not be necessary (there may not be any null values in your select statement).
