Divisor by zero error...pls suggest

Howdy folks,
First message in this forum and newbie to oracle
I am getting divisor by zero error for the following simple query. can some one suggest other ways of doing this math query instead?
SELECT COUNT(*),ROUND(sum(A.MONTH_TO_MATURITY*A.PRIN_BAL)/SUM(A.PRIN_BAL),3) FROM MPF.LOAN_HISTORY A WHERE A.PRODUCTCODE = 'FX20'
thanks much
nath

select count(*),
round (sum(a.month_to_maturity * a.prin_bal) / nullif(sum(a.prin_bal), 0), 3)
from mpf.loan_history a
where a.productcode = 'fx20'

Divisor is equal to zero error

Hi, I am getting divisor is equal to zero error while doing a calculation using sql. Is there a workaround this ?
Thanks

What do you want to do, if the divisor is 0?
Is the SQL executed in SqlPlus or in a procedure/function?

Division cannot be carried out because divisor is zero - EA00

hi,
While doing EA00 transaction following error occurs:
During billing simulation, a termination occurs with message AJ020 (Division cannot be carried out because divisor is zero) or AJ097 (Unexpected termination in variant &1 in schema &2)
I gone through the note 402960
Note says, The termination can occur, for example, when
1) you choose pushbutton "Overall check" on the move-in screen,
2) the move-out date of a contract is equal to the move-in date,
3) one-day time slices are to be billed
The overall check in the move-in is called with a one-day time slice.That is, the move-in date is selected as the to-date.
Solution
Correct your billing schema.
Use IF nestings to make sure that only schema steps, which can also be executed with zero values, are executed. For example,a division by zero should be avoided.
My problem is I did not understood what exactly has to change in schema.pls help???
Regards,
Chetan

Can you mention the variant Program you are using on this step. The Divisor operand value seems to have become zero. You may need to check how this operand value is being populated.

Any thoughts or additional suggestions?? I have been working on getting the EM console back up and fully functional for several days. I am more of a 9i type, not 10g.
Yes, it's been 18 months since this last worked; what can I say? I inherited this server from a vendor.

Does anyone have

A couple of updates:
1. I found a perl script file in the sysman\admin\scripts folder called semd_common.pl. I found the line number referenced in the log file. Apparently, the $total variable (representing disk space, I think) is not set properly. When I hard coded it to a fixed value and restarted the dbConsole, I stopped getting the division by zero error.
Not a good solution, but maybe a step sideways. I'd like to remove my edit, but one thing at a time.
2. I found another error message in the OracleDBConsoleSIDwebsrvc.log file:
03/22/06 14:44:23 Received exitCode 1 from emctl istatus
Googling this particular message did not reveal a whole lot to me.
Any more ideas? Anyone?

Hi all,

Hi
Try creating the procedure without the positional notation in your function call in the cursor (BTW, the positional params should be specified as <param> => <value>, not <param> = <value>). i.e just pass the values to your functional call as shown below and see if it works. Is this what you intend to do?
I also suggest that you try and compile the procedure in SQLPLUS.
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE getsimilar AS
id NUMBER;
score NUMBER;
image ORDSYS.ORDImage;
query_signature ORDSYS.ORDImageSignature;
queryimg ORDSYS.ORDIMAGE;
CURSOR getphotos IS
SELECT id, ORDSYS.IMGScore(123) SCORE FROM imgstable WHERE
ORDSYS.IMGSimilar(sign, query_signature,
'1.00', '1.00', '1.00','1.00',20,123) = 1 order by SCORE desc;
BEGIN
queryimg := ORDSYS.ORDIMAGE.init('FILE','BDMVFSUPLOADSEARCHTMP','test.jpeg');
query_signature := ORDSYS.ORDIMAGESIGNATURE.init();
DBMS_LOB.CREATETEMPORARY(query_signature.signature, TRUE);
query_signature.generateSignature(queryimg);

Anyone pls suggest where i can found PrecompliedheaderMac.mcp project settings

hi all,

PhotoshopSDKDebug.ch canot be opend..and preproceessor error directive..
anyone pls suggest where i can found PrecompliedheaderMac.mcp project settings
pls help in this regard..

Look in the samplecode/common section. I think the pre-compiled header project is in there. You can remove the dependancy on the pre-compiled header project all together. (I would recommend it as later versions of the SDK dropped that.)

PATTERN is driving me crazy, pls. suggest me good syntax

Hello
Bcz of i placed PATTERN under DISPLAY tab, am getting errosrs like "Integer has too many digits", "Empty is too long"...I am guessing these are all bcz of some SPACES on these value fields, but not sure from where these spaces are coming? may be user entered some value and just moved the cursor/space bar right hand side, not sure, how to truncate space in BINDING tab's pattern?
I have 12 value fields in my form, they are for quantities, volumes, price, amounts. I put them as Decimal fields and each field has its own length, as mentioned below
1) Volume field - Decimal field - Limit leading digits as 15 and Limit trailing digits as 3
I put the Pattern only on Display tab as below (I didn't put any pattern any other tab, like Binding, Edit, Valiodation tabs)
By selecting the num.integer on SELECT TYPE left side, I put as below
null{}|zero{}|num.integer{}
(Checked Allow Empty, Allow Zeros check boxes)
Pls. help me by telling What is the correct syntax i need to put here?
Do i need to put pattern also any other tab, like under BINDING tab, if so, psl. let me know the syntax?
By selecting the num.decimal on SELECT TYPE left side, I put as below
null{}|zero{}|num.decimal{}
(Checked Allow Empty, Allow Zeros check boxes)
Pls. help me by telling What is the correct syntax i need to put here?
Do i need to put pattern also any other tab, like under BINDING tab, if so, psl. let me know the syntax?
2) Price field - Decimal field - Limit leading digits as 14 and Limit trailing digits as 4
Pls. help me by telling What is the correct syntax i need to put here?
Do i need to put pattern also any other tab, like under BINDING tab, if so, psl. let me know the syntax?
Pls. help me by telling What is the correct syntax i need to put here?

Thank you

Thank you.
Pls. let me know
1) My understading from your answer is, i need NOT to put any PATTERN in BINDING tab? am i correct?
2) Sure, i will put the suggested below syntax, but pls. let me know do i need to select any entry from the left side box (as shown in the black box in below screen shot?) and then i put the suggested below syntax/patern? or i don't need to select any entry from the left box as shwon in below screen shot as black box?
null{'Enter a Number'}|num{zzz,zzz,zzz,zzz,zz9.999}
3) For example, if i select num.deciaml {} option.....then the blue high lighted part is coming as trail part to the syntax? is it OK, let it come?
4) So, i guess, for 2 leading and 2 training length, i need to put below pattern, am i correct?
null{}|num{z9.99}
Edit pattern would be for 2,2 is as below, am i correct?
null{}|num{z9.888}
5) Do i need to check the ALLOW EMPTY and ALLOW ZERO check boxes? or not?
6) By chance, if user put spaces, then I want to truncate spaces / delete the spaces in the middle of data or anywhere in the data/field, so can i use as below? if not, pls. suggest me for get rid off spaces from anywhere in the field, bcz i am guessing these crap spaces is causing an issues for me
null{'No data'}|num{zzz,zzz,zzz,zzz,zz9.999}
Thank you

Numeric or value error: hex to raw conversion error , pls help

I am having problem with a sproc which accepts a Raw parameter.

Thanks.

tnam1 not belongs to t1t2t3.
:new should be used to te columns of the table on which you are writing the trigger.
Here i think t1t2t3 has t1name field you have to use :new.t1name instead of :new.t1nam(which belongs to table t1)

Divide by zero error encountered

Dear All,
When our customer process PO, they got an error like below:
Divide by zero error encountered. Tax definition [ovcg]
They also got Divide by zero error encountered. Outgoing payments [ovpm]
They can process their business but we need to know why and how to fix this error for them.
Any idea? Thanks.

Hi,
You need to check the FMS defined on the row level of the document you want to add.
Remove the FMS and you will not get the error message reported.

Getting error PLS-00307: too many declarations while instantiating object.

Hi,
I'm using oracle 10.2.0.4.0
I've created an object obj_bsk as follows:
create or replace type obj_bsk as object
(batch_set_key varchar2(64),
constructor function obj_bsk
return self as result,
constructor function obj_bsk(p_batch_set_key in varchar2)
return self as result,
member procedure display_batch_set_key
and object body as
create or replace type body obj_bsk as
constructor function obj_bsk
return self as result is
begin
self.batch_set_key := sys_guid();
return;
end;
constructor function obj_bsk (p_batch_set_key varchar2)
return self as result is
begin
self.batch_set_key := p_batch_set_key;
return;
end;
member procedure display_batch_set_key is
begin
dbms_output.put_line('batch_set_key is:' || self.batch_set_key);
end;
end;
Then I've created a package test_obj as follows:
specification:
create or replace package test_obj is
-- Author : TSHARMA
-- Created : 31/01/2012 10:32:37
-- Purpose : to test objects
my_bsk obj_bsk;
g_batch_set_key varchar2(64);
procedure show_obj_val;
end test_obj;
body:
create or replace package body test_obj is
procedure show_obj_val is
begin
my_bsk.display_batch_set_key();
end;
begin
-- Initialization
if (g_batch_set_key is not null) then
my_bsk := obj_bsk(g_batch_set_key);
else
my_bsk := obj_bsk();
end if;
end test_obj;
When I'm compiling the package I'm getting following error:
Compilation errors for PACKAGE BODY TSHARMA.TEST_OBJ
Error: PLS-00307: too many declarations of 'OBJ_BSK' match this call
Line: 12
Text: my_bsk := obj_bsk(g_batch_set_key);
Error: PL/SQL: Statement ignored
Line: 12
Text: my_bsk := obj_bsk(g_batch_set_key);
Can anyone please explain why oracle is viewing it as too many call for constructor when both constructors are different.
and how to resolve the issue.
Thanks
Tarun

I've solved the problem. Though it is strange.
The error occurred because I'm using p_batch_set_key as parameter constructor.
i.e. constructor function obj_bsk(p_batch_set_key in varchar2)
return self as result,
once I changed it to the same name as variable name in object it compiled fine.
i.e constructor function obj_bsk(batch_set_key in varchar2)
return self as result,
It is very strange. Can anyone plesae explain why the parameter name should be same as variable name in object.
Thanks

Function to replace division by zero error cells with blank cells when calculating a numeric average

Hi everyone,
I have a five sheet spreadsheet that uses data from four sheets to calculate numeric averages in the fifth. The problem is that there is not always data in all four sheets which produces a division by zero error in the averages sheet. Is there a function or setting in Numbers 2.3 (not yet ready to upgrade to Numbers 3) that will allow these division by zero cells to be replaced by blank cells.
I have tried using statements of the form =AVERAGE(IFERROR(Sheet 1::Table 1:: B4,""),IFERROR(Sheet 2:: Table 1:: B4,""),Sheet 3:: Table 1:: B4,""), Sheet 4:: Table 1:: B4,"")). however instead of a division by zero error this produces an error telling me "the function AVERAGE expects that a number, date or duration but found "." ". It looks as though I will have to make about 400 changes to my sheet as these errors are in this and approximately 100 other cells!
I am hoping that there is some way if possible of correcting these errors without having to manually edit each cell individually.
Thanks,
Hugh

Hugh,
You may want to consider an intermediate sheet to handle the errors and then pass the result on to the main sheet.
In the following mockup, I've created a small interposing table the consists of a list of sources in column A and the result from each table. In the example, I perform some operation on those intermediate results, to be passed on to the main table. This may not be a good example, and since I don't know the overall goal of your project it's just a surrogate. (In real life we probably wouldn't be interested in finding the average of averages.)
The expression in Summary::B2 is:
=IFERROR(INDIRECT(A&"::B4"), "SourceError")

Percentage calculation and zero amount entries get dvision by zero error

Hello, i am calculating the total of a field and then reporting the contributions of that line entry in percentage form but when a line has a zero amount i get an error of 'division by zero'. I'll give some explamples below incase i'm not explaining very well. If you replace the 225 under amount with 0 that is when i get the error.
code sample..
WhilePrintingRecords;
numbervar n := {@Total Weight}% Sum ({@Total Weight}, {JSALES_REPORT.SOPNUMBE});
data sample...
Amount      % of total
150             40%
225             60%
(375)

Hi Rod.
I'd recommend using and IF statement to deal with division by zero. I'm not sure what you exactly want to do with records that have division 0 but I usually do the following to see which records are creating the div by zero errors and then decide how I want the values to be displayed after evaluating it.
WhilePrintingRecords;
if {whichever.field} = 0 then 9999999999 // this would be an indicator to me to take a look at this record
else
numbervar n := {@Total Weight}% Sum ({@Total Weight}, {JSALES_REPORT.SOPNUMBE}); // your original formula
You can then change the 99999999 number to whichever number you think should be viable to answer your business question on items that are divided by 0.
Hope this helps.
