Error: Arithmetic overflow occurred

I have 2 sybase database:
one is production
one is restored from production for dev.
I try to run following
select "Procedure Cache Hit Ratio" = (Requests-Loads)*100/Requests from master..monProcedureCache
on dev, it is fine. I got Hit Ratio percentage.
But when I run it on production, I got error:
Arithmetic overflow occurred
Both production and dev has same ASE 12.5.4. How to find out the reason and fix it?

The columns from the monProcedureCache table are defined as 'int'. By default the '100' is treated as 'int', too. Short of seeing the actual data values I'm guessing the '(Requests-Loads)*100' is > 2 billion => overflow.
I'd suggest forcing the query to use a real/numeric datatype (as opposed to int) for the calculation, so try replacing the '100' with '100.0', eg:
select "Procedure Cache Hit Ratio" = (Requests-Loads)*100.0/Requests
from master..monProcedureCache

Arithmetic overflow occurred

Bonjour,
I am trying a simple math calcul that my tabletop cheap calculator can easily handle but Sybase just can't ....
declare @totalsize float
select @totalsize=(894720*4096/1048576)
Arithmetic overflow occurred ... Sybase errorcode 3606
No matter what type I use (numerci, bigint, int, nameit), nothing is working, my database is simple unable to handle this calcul.
Anyone has an idea what's going on!?

Like *all* DBMS's, ASE attempts to translate literals into datatypes - e.g. you couldn't even begin the above in Java without specifying types. ASE attempts based on the value - and for most numeric values without a decimal, it treats as an 'int' unless >2B. So in your case you have:
int * int /int
....but the int*int overflows int.
Simple fix
select @totalsize=(894720.0*4096/1048576)
Now, because of the .0, ASE treats the first value as a float - and following standard ANSI rules float * int = float ... /int = float...

FormCalc error-arithmetic overflow/underflow

Does anyone know how to get rid of the arithmetic overflow/underflow error? I have a form with calculated fields that works, but I get this error every time I open it. I really don't want to send it out to customers like this. Any suggestions?

Since it is occurring when the form is first openned I'd look for some calculations (particularly division) that are being done in form load/field initialization/field change events. You could add some "message box" display of field names, event name and variable values at the beginning of the events that have calculations to determine which one(s) are running at form load time and what the values are.
My guess is that it is being triggered before one or more of the variables has a value in it. If that is the case, you will want to surround your calculation with a check to ensure that the variables are non-zero, non-null. You may even want to go as far as not running the calculation until after you know the form has been completely loaded and fields are initialized by establishing a variable that isn't set until the end of the form load process.

Arithmetic Overflow/Underflow and Divide by Zero Errors

We're having problems similar to those posted below (see links), especially "Help: Divide by Zero Errors" to which no one has addressed. Here's our situation: On our form, we have two columns that sum the rows above them, called "covertotal" and "multtotal" ...for which we need a final calculation: multtotal/covertotal Under calcutions in FormCalc, we have generated the following formula for the box called "prevtotal" under the calculate command: (multtotal / covertotal) However, since this calculation runs when the document is opened, we get a divide by zero error. Do we need to create an initialize or calculate formula to correct for this zero? If so, what is the proper coding. Please spell this out, we're that stupid... <sigh> Thanks!

0FI_AR_4 Arithmetic overflow while extracting delta

Hi All,
While extracting 0FI_AR_4 delta from R/3 only data packages 2-4 were recieved in BW. Data package 1 is missing and the load was terminated with an error: "Arithmetic overflow error converting numeric to data type numeric.#3621 The statement has been terminated."
Looking in RSA7 (in R/3 side) I can see all delta data waiting for Delta Repetition but can not locate any erroneous record (although I get "overflow" error when trying to sum one of the fields there. Sorting this field's values reveals nothing odd).
Any idea as how to locate the bad record(s) , and as how to fix the problem?
Thanks,
OM

Thank you Srinivas,
I've checked ST22 log but besides listing the cause of the dump (Arithmetic overflow...) it gives no details as to the specific record / value / string.

Arithmetic Overflow error converting float to data type numeric

Hi,
Am facing strange issue,I have function which returns money datatype and assigning the return money value to float datatype in table.
Error msg:
Msg 8115, Level 16, State 6, Procedure GBCalcCatalogPriceNewV2, Line 204
Arithmetic overflow error converting float to data type numeric.
The statement has been terminated.
Strange thing is the same stored procedure is working fine in production environment,but in the deveopment i see this error.Am scared if the same happens in the production environment.Please advice and advance
thanks
Regards
RAj

Strange thing is the same stored procedure is working fine in production environment,
How could that be strange? This is an error that occurs depending on the data. Accidents that are waiting to happen will happen sooner or later.
Then again, a development database may be more prone to such errors, because data that entered are completely out of whack with real life data. Still it is a warning sign. If you have some place where you convert data from float to numeric, you must consider
the risk that the float value is outside the range for the numeric data type. How do you prevent that from happening? Maybe a CHECK constraint on the column? Of if the data origins from a money column, use a numeric data type with sufficient precision.

Power query from ODBC :"DataSource.Error: Arithmetic operation resulted in an overflow"

Good day
Everytime I want to pull data into a query from our servers it gives the error "DataSource.Error: Arithmetic operation resulted in an overflow". What is the reason for this error, and how do I get past this bump.
Thanks in advance

Hey Tristan. Thanks I did that yes.
For some reason my direct MySQL connection does not want to work.
I get the following error

CAST Not working for me - Arithmetic overflow error converting int to data type numeric - error

GPM is DECIMAL(5,2)
PRICE is DECIMAL(11,4)
COST is DECIMAL(7,2)
Trying to update the Gross Profit Margin % field and I keep getting the "Arithmetic overflow error converting int to data type numeric" error.
UPDATE SMEMODETAIL SET SMD_GPM = (SMD_PRICE-SMD_COST) / SMD_PRICE * 100
FROM SMEMODETAIL WHERE SMD_PRICE<>0 AND SMD_QUANTITY<>0
Example record:
SMD_PRICE SMD_COST GPM%
1.8500 1.62 12.4324324324324300
I added cast and I still get the error.
How do I format to get this to work?
Thanks!

Hi GBerthume,
The error is caused by some value such as 1000.01 of the expression (SMD_PRICE-SMD_COST) / SMD_PRICE * 100 exceeds the
precision of the column(DECIMAL(5,2)). The example data doesn't cause the overflow error for the value of the expression is 12.43 which is in the scope of DECIMAL(5,2).
USE TestDB
CREATE TABLE SMEMODETAIL
SMD_PRICE DECIMAL(11,4),
SMD_COST DECIMAL(7,2),
SMD_GPM DECIMAL(5,2)
INSERT INTO SMEMODETAIL(SMD_PRICE,SMD_COST) SELECT 1.8500,1.62
UPDATE SMEMODETAIL SET SMD_GPM = (SMD_PRICE-SMD_COST) / SMD_PRICE * 100
FROM SMEMODETAIL WHERE SMD_PRICE<>0-- AND SMD_QUANTITY<>0
SELECT * FROM SMEMODETAIL
DROP TABLE SMEMODETAIL
The solution of your case can be either scale the DECIMAL(5,2) or follow the suggestion in Scott_morris-ga's to check and fix your data.
If you have any question, feel free to let me know.

Arithmetic overflow error

Hi all,
The below is suppose to generate random dates but I receive the following error:
Msg 8115, Level 16, State 2, Line 7
Arithmetic overflow error converting expression to data type datetime.
SQL Below - if is this happening?
DECLARE
@MinDate INT, @MaxDate INT;
DECLARE
@RANGE INT = DATEDIFF(DD, @MinDate, @MaxDate);
SET @MaxDate =20141212
SET @MinDate = 20140101
SELECT CONVERT(DATE, DATEADD(DD, ROUND(RAND(CAST(NEWID() AS VARBINARY)) * @RANGE,0,-1), @MinDate));

Reason is because you've declared variable as int. An integer value of 0 represents a base date of 19000101. SO maximum possible integer value you can convert to date is 2958463 which is why it throws error for values 20141212,20140101
etc
convert them to string and they all work fine
DECLARE
@MinDate INT, @MaxDate INT;
SET @MaxDate =20141212
SET @MinDate = 20140101
DECLARE
@RANGE INT = DATEDIFF(DD,CAST( @MinDate AS varchar(8)), CAST(@MaxDate AS varchar(8)));

Error #1023: Stack overflow occurred. null

I am entering data inside a datagrid and I have an update button which sends data to a web service. But when I click the update button, I get this error: Error #1023: Stack overflow occurred. null. I filled in the info using SOAPUI and sent it to the web service and it works fine. So this error is inside flex. Would you help me understand what I am doing wrong.
Here is my code:
 protected function updateBtn_clickHandler(event:MouseEvent):void
 if (currentState == "EmployeeNonAvails")
 setNonAvailResult.token = personnelBean.setNonAvail(nonAvailDto);
 else if (currentState == "EmployeeDetail")
 userDto.firstName = firstNameTextInput.text;
 userDto.lastName = lastNameTextInput.text;
 userDto.loginName = loginNameTextInput.text;
 userDto.password = passwordTextInput.text;
 setUserResult.token = personnelBean.setUser(userDto);

PersonnelBean is a reference generated by Flash Builder to a web Service. As stated in my original message. I have already tested the web service and it is working fine. I used SOAPUI to send the data via XML and it worked perfectly fine. Besides, when I watch the server log, nothing happens and so Flex is not even sending out the message. Flex is talking to the server because it connects and loads data fine. It seems to fail when I want to send data to the server. But it is failing before it actually sends the data. And it fails during generated code. This tells me there is a bug in Flash Builder. If you look at the generated code for Personnel Bean this is what you see.

Arithmetic Overflow Errors

I remember that when Java was first introduced, one of the major design goals of the language was to eliminate common programmer errors. For example, instead of trusting the programmer to read the documentation of a given function to learn that they needed to test for a negative return value as an error, java included a very rigorous exception handling requirement. The developer who wrote a method would declare which exceptions it could throw and those using the method were required to account for those exceptions.
I'm now starting to work with Java on a full time basis and was reviewing the arithmetic rules. I couldn't believe it when I discovered that overflowing an integer value doesn't cause an arithmetic overflow error!
Am I missing something, or is that a major deviation from the stated language design goals?!

Am I missing something, or is that a major deviation from the stated language design goals?!Your design goals are a little off. Nobody aimed to make Java to be usable without reading the docs/specs. They aimed at keeping things simple and cleanly designed, not exactly as self-explanatory. There are many things in the JLS that aren't.

Arithmetic overflow error converting expression to data type int

Hi
iam creating on sp for the database total size , used mb and free size . percentage free .
in this purpose i was creating on sps, with in the sp iam was writing one select statement . it statement is

it was executive one server with out error but the same select statement is writing antoher server iam geeting belo error.
"@ErrorDesc: Line 24 - Line 13- Arithmetic overflow error converting expression to data type int."
how to slove this issue..
please help me...

Change 8 to 8E0, to make it a float literal. The data type of
SUM(COALESCE(size,0)))*8)
is int, since all components are int, and it can easily overflow the size for an int. If you use 8E0, you get a float, and the entire expression will be float.
