Error : CONNECT BY loop in user data
Getting CONNECT BY loop in user data:
Table X (sample data actually have 35K rows)
CODE CASE OLD_ID NEW_ID PERSON AUTH
01 ab122 1234 0001 AU123 99393
07 vv353 7872 0919 FV982 78282
01 ab122 1982 9929 AU123 99393

05 cg899 6728 32322 IKL020 65252
07 w353 0919 8282 FV982 78282
now I need to order this data comparing row values of old_id to new_id for each of the combinations of code, person, case
need output like below
Table X
CODE CASE OLD_ID NEW_ID PERSON AUTH
01 ab122 1234 0001 AU123 99393
01 ab122 0001 1982 AU123 99393

07 vv353 7872 0919 FV982 78282
07 w353 0919 8282 FV982 78282
to get this I am using:
--Query--
select * from table_x
start with old_id not in(
select new_id
from table_x
CONNECT BY old_id = PRIOR new_id
AND code = PRIOR code
AND case = PRIOR case
AND person = PRIOR person
--Query--
runs fine with sample data but the problem is when excute it with actual table that has 35K records..
Cause: The condition specified in a CONNECT BY clause caused a loop in the query, where the next record to be selected is a descendent of itself. When this happens, there can be no end to the query.
Action: Check the CONNECT BY clause and remove the circular reference.
Thanks,

Hi,
CONNECT_BY_ISCYCLE is a pseudo-column that you can use in a CONNECT BY NOCYCLE query. It's separate from the CONNECT BY clause.
Try this:
select code, "CASE", person
, SYS_CONNECT_BY_PATH (old_id, '/') AS path
from table_x
where CONNECT_BY_ISCYCLE = 1
start with old_id not in (
select new_id
from table_x
CONNECT BY NOCYCLE old_id = PRIOR new_id
AND code = PRIOR code
AND "CASE" = PRIOR "CASE"
AND person = PRIOR person
I hope this answers your question.
If not, post a little sample data (CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements, relevant columns only), and also post the results you want from that data.
Explain, using specific examples, how you get those results from that data.
Always say which version of Oracle you're using (e.g., 11.2.0.2.0).

Getting "CONNECT BY loop in user data" error
Hi all,
I used to run the following query but I got this error "CONNECT BY loop in user data"
select * from
bom_details
where common_bill_sequence_id=bill_sequence_id
connect by prior assembly_item_id=component_item_id
Bom_details is one view which contains
SELECT distinct bi1.assembly_item_id, bic.bill_sequence_id, bi1.organization_id,
bi1.common_bill_sequence_id, bic.component_item_id,
bic.component_quantity, bic.item_num
FROM bom_bill_of_materials bi1, bom_inventory_components bic
where bi1.bill_sequence_id = bic.bill_sequence_id
Please advice how to use the query.
Thanks,
KamalHi,
You could try using the NOCYCLE directive to avoid user data errors e.g.
select * from
bom_details
where common_bill_sequence_id=bill_sequence_id
connect by NOCYCLE prior assembly_item_id=component_item_id

How to bypass "ORA-01436: CONNECT BY loop in user data" ?
Hello everybody
I have a problem with a ORA-01436 firing too early on a query I'm trying to execute.
There is a table of strings. Each string on that table should be composed of a single character or it must be obtained by the concatenation of a single character on another string in the table.
Sometime this requirement is missing. I can't do anything to drive the table to be in that way. So I would like to execute a query witch corrects that table by adding the missing strings in it. When there are some strings that can't be obtained by appending a single char from another string the the query should list also the missing chain of strings to make that string valid in the table.
An example.
create table strings (
val varchar2(10) not null
insert into strings (val) values ('A')
insert into strings (val) values ('ABCDE')
insert into strings (val) values ('AD')
insert into strings (val) values ('ADF')
select *
from strings
order by val
Query finished, retrieving results...
VAL
A
ABCDE
AD
ADF
4 row(s) retrievedAs you can see the bold string ABCDE is not valid because it can't be obtained by
appending a single char to any other string in the table.
In this case a valid result should also list the chain of strings 'AB', 'ABC' and 'ABCD'.
To find the strings where a chain of missing strings begins and finishes I use this query.
Processing ...
select val,p_val
from (
select val,lag(val) over (order by val) as p_val
from strings
) a
WHERE val not like p_val||'_' and val like p_val||'%' AND p_val IS NOT NULL
Query finished, retrieving results...
VAL P_VAL
ABCDE A
1 row(s) retrievedIn this simple case a can list the missing strings with this query.
Processing ...
select val,p_val,p_val||SUBSTR(val,LENGTH(p_val)+1,LEVEL) as chain_string,LEVEL
FROM (
select val,p_val
from (
select val,lag(val) over (order by val) as p_val
from strings
) a
WHERE val not like p_val||'_' and val like p_val||'%' AND p_val IS NOT NULL
CONNECT BY LENGTH(val)>LENGTH(p_val)+LEVEL
Query finished, retrieving results...
VAL P_VAL CHAIN_STRING LEVEL
ABCDE A AB 1
ABCDE A ABC 2
ABCDE A ABCD 3
3 row(s) retrievedBut when I have more than one string to be validated things change and the hierarchical query is not good any more in this way.
insert into strings (val) values ('ADFGH')
Processing ...
select *
from strings
order by val
Query finished, retrieving results...
VAL
A
ABCDE
AD
ADF
ADFGH
5 row(s) retrievedBecause I retrieve solutions regarding the one string mixed with all the others
Processing ...
select val,p_val,p_val||SUBSTR(val,LENGTH(p_val)+1,LEVEL) as chain_string,LEVEL
FROM (
select val,p_val
from (
select val,lag(val) over (order by val) as p_val
from strings
) a
WHERE val not like p_val||'_' and val like p_val||'%' AND p_val IS NOT NULL
CONNECT BY LENGTH(val)>LENGTH(p_val)+LEVEL
Query finished, retrieving results...
VAL P_VAL CHAIN_STRING LEVEL
ABCDE A AB 1
ABCDE A ABC 2
ABCDE A ABCD 3
ADFGH ADF ADFG 1
ABCDE A ABC 2
ABCDE A ABCD 3
6 row(s) retrievedTo avoid this I should add a condition to link val to prior val in the connect by clause but here it throws ORA-01436.
Processing ...
select val,p_val,p_val||SUBSTR(val,LENGTH(p_val)+1,LEVEL) as chain_string,LEVEL
FROM (
select val,p_val
from (
select val,lag(val) over (order by val) as p_val
from strings
) a
WHERE val not like p_val||'_' and val like p_val||'%' AND p_val IS NOT NULL
CONNECT BY LENGTH(val)>LENGTH(p_val)+LEVEL AND val = PRIOR val
select val,p_val,p_val||SUBSTR(val,LENGTH(p_val)+1,LEVEL) as chain_string,LEVEL
ORA-01436: CONNECT BY loop in user dataWhat could I do to bypass that check?
I know I could query for distinct values on the first query (the one without the condition val = PRIOR val ) but I'd like to know if you had similar problems and how did you solved them in this case.
Thanks

DBMS_RANDOM and ORA-01436: CONNECT BY loop in user data
Hi,
The following query gets the error "ORA_01436: CONNECT BY loop in user data":
SELECT currentdate
, ADD_MONTHS ( currentdate
, (LEVEL - 1) * months
) + ((LEVEL - 1) * days) AS final_date
, level
FROM table_z
WHERE CONNECT_BY_ISLEAF = 1
CONNECT BY currentdate = PRIOR currentdate
AND PRIOR dbms_random.value IS NOT NULL
AND ADD_MONTHS ( currentdate
, (LEVEL - 2) * months
) + ((LEVEL - 2) * days) <= TO_DATE ( '05/01/2008'
, 'MM/DD/YYYY'
);I've seen "PRIOR dbms_random.value IS NOT NULL" used like this as as a way to get around ORA-01436 in Oracle 9, but I'm using Oracle 11, and it doesn't work
currentdate is unique.
If I hard-code any one set of values, like this:
DEFINE currentdate = "TO_DATE ('03/02/2006', 'MM/DD/YYYY')"
DEFINE days = 300
DEFINE months = 0
SELECT ¤tdate
, ADD_MONTHS ( ¤tdate
, (LEVEL - 1) * &months
) + ((LEVEL - 1) * &days) AS final_date
FROM dual
WHERE CONNECT_BY_ISLEAF = 1
CONNECT BY ¤tdate = PRIOR ¤tdate
AND PRIOR dbms_random.value IS NOT NULL
AND ADD_MONTHS ( ¤tdate
, (LEVEL - 2) * &months
) + ((LEVEL - 2) * &days) <= TO_DATE ( '05/01/2008'
, 'MM/DD/YYYY'
);I can get the correct results from dual. I was looking for a way to extend this to get multiple rows from table_z in the same query.
The problem came up in [this thread|http://forums.oracle.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=894946&tstart=0], where the problem is:
Given this table:
CREATE TABLE table_z
( currentdate DATE
, months NUMBER
, days NUMBER
INSERT INTO table_z (currentdate, months, days) VALUES (TO_DATE ('03/02/2006', 'MM/DD/YYYY'), 0, 300);
INSERT INTO table_z (currentdate, months, days) VALUES (TO_DATE ('04/05/2006', 'MM/DD/YYYY'), 10, 0);
INSERT INTO table_z (currentdate, months, days) VALUES (TO_DATE ('05/04/2006', 'MM/DD/YYYY'), 3, 0);I'm trying to add the given number of months and/or days to currentdate until I reach a given hard-coded cutoff date (05/01/2008 in this case).
That is, the desired results from the data above are:
CURRENTDAT MONTHS DAYS FINALDATE
03/02/2006 0 300 08/18/2008
04/05/2006 10 0 10/05/2008

hi,
when I run below query, it always throws error below:
SELECT connect_by_root code AS code_root,
CODE,
CODE_DESC,
UP_CODE
FROM DI_CODE_LEVEL
WHERE TYPE_CODE='SP'
CONNECT BY PRIOR CODE=UP_CODE;
ORA-01436: CONNECT BY loop in user data
01436. 00000 - "CONNECT BY loop in user data"But when I use NOCLYCLE and CONNECT_BY_ISCYCLE to find out which row is in question,
it shows nothing, which means CONNECT_BY_ISCYCLE=ZERO for all rows.
select * from (
SELECT connect_by_root code AS code_root,
CODE,
CODE_DESC,
UP_CODE ,
CONNECT_BY_ISCYCLE AS ISCYCLE
FROM DI_CODE_LEVEL
WHERE TYPE_CODE='SP'
CONNECT BY NOCYCLE PRIOR CODE=UP_CODE
where ISCYCLE>0;Is there any other reason that this sql would throw ORA-01436?
If there is a loop, then will the combination of NOCYCLE, CONNECT_BY_ISCYCLE will show?
ThanksHi,
Apparantly, one or more of the 'SP' rows are causing the problem.
The WHERE clause is applied after the CONNECT BY is finished, so saying:
select * from (

When debugging "ORA-01436: CONNECT BY loop in user data", display SYS_CONNECT_BY_PATH (uk, ...), where uk is some unique key. That will tell you a lot more than just the root information. You might want this:
SELECT connect_by_root code AS code_root,

CODE_DESC,
UP_CODE
, SYS_CONNECCT_BY_PATH (code, '/') AS path -- For debugging
, CONNECT_BY_ISCYCLE AS ISCYCLE -- For debugging
FROM DI_CODE_LEVEL
-- WHERE TYPE_CODE = 'SP' -- Commented out for debugging
where ISCYCLE > 0 -- For debugging
CONNECT BY NOCYCLE PRIOR CODE = UP_CODE
I hope this answers your question.
If not, post a little sample data (CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements, relevant columns only), and the results you want from that data.
Explain how you get those results from that data.

ORA-01436 CONNECT by loop in user data Oracle HRMS - How do I prevent this?
I am getting from time to time an error when users are performing tasks in Oracle HRMS that comes back as ORA-01436 CONNECT by loop in user data.
This issue is caused when there exists a loop in the Supervisor hierarchy.
For ex: Emp A reports to Emp B and Emp B reports to A
OR
Emp A reports to B and B reports to C and C reports to A.
It can be any of the above or if there are more approvers then there can be a
bigger loop.
This is described on Oracle Metalink Doc ID: 275819.1
This happens to us regularly; someone puts the manager of an employee as the subordinate of the 1st employee - of course this is not logically possible!
My question is how do i prevent this in the HRMS Manager tool or the Self Service functionality - I want the user to be informed and prevented from creating these infinite loops in the first place ...any ideas?Hi,
We suffer same the kind of issue but as you might have seen there is no immediate answer from Oracle about implementing a check within the Application forms/SS. In the end we wrote a report to hunt to locate loops in employee supervisor chain and report any circular references it finds. This report is scheduled to run every day and the customer reviews the output and then fixes the loops. Not ideal but we've not had chance to investigate a custom trigger say on the per_all_assignments_f table. -
Hi everbody,
Please a need some help with this:
I'm learning about how to generate rows in oracle from the page.
http://blog.lishman.com/2008/02/how-to-generate-rows-in-oracle_2477.html
In that page there is an example like this:
SELECT rownum
FROM dual
CONNECT BY LEVEL <= 5;
I execute this sentence in my oracle 8i database but a get this message: CONNECT BY loop in user data
Please,where is the problem?
Thanks in advanceuser491853 wrote:
Thank you justin !
I need to execute this query, because I need to find what 'TUESDAYS' are between 2 dates:
SELECT t.dt, TRIM (TO_CHAR (t.dt, 'DAY')) "DAY"
FROM (SELECT TRUNC (SYSDATE) + ROWNUM dt
FROM DUAL
CONNECT BY LEVEL <= 80) t
WHERE TRIM (TO_CHAR (t.dt, 'DAY')) = 'THURSDAY'
AND t.dt BETWEEN TO_DATE ('01/08/2006', 'dd/mm/rrrr')
AND TO_DATE ('31/08/2006', 'dd/mm/rrrr')
The result would be:
DT DAY
03-AUG-06 THURSDAY
10-AUG-06 THURSDAY
17-AUG-06 THURSDAY
24-AUG-06 THURSDAY
31-AUG-06 THURSDAY
How can I execute a similar query in oracle 8i? Thanks buddy for any response.I can't test it as I don't have access to 8i but does following query work (to generate rows)?
SELECT level
FROM DUAL
CONNECT BY LEVEL <= 80

Connect by loop in user data: urgent solution needed
Hai iam using oracle9i and my problem is
in my client place we r developing a report
of bill_of_materials and it seems the data
is having some recursive nature.
iam getting connect by loop in user data: how to avoid it in oracle9i.
i have two tables prm010ebomh1 and prm010ebomh2.
now 1st table consists of the product and 2nd table consists of the components
forming the product.
a good solution is welcomed.
My query is:
SELECT DISTINCT B.SL_NO,A.FITEM_CD,B.SITEM_CD,
LPAD(C.ITEM_DESC,LENGTH(C.ITEM_DESC)+(LEVEL*2)-2,' ') AssyLevel,
b.qty
from prm010ebomh a, prm010ebomd b,m032item c
where a.fitem_cd=b.fitem_cd
and a.type=b.type
and a.comp_cd=b.comp_cd
and a.comp_cdch=b.comp_cdch
and a.comp_cd='IFA'
AND A.COMP_CDCH='D01'
START WITH A.FITEM_CD='A0150100'
CONNECT BY A.FITEM_CD=PRIOR B.SITEM_CD
ORDER SIBLINGS BY B.SL_NO.Modify the data so that the circular references are avoided.
ORA-01436 CONNECT BY loop in user data
Cause: The condition specified in a CONNECT BY clause caused a loop in the query, where the next record to be selected is a descendent of itself. When this happens, there can be no end to the query.
Action: Check the CONNECT BY clause and remove the circular reference. -

Heirarchical Query, Connect By Loop in User Data
Hi,
Is there any method to find the node which has problem in heirachical query.
As my data is complex and has levels upto 10 , its not possbile to fix manually. I have idendtified the series "START WITH" ,which causing problem. But I couldnt find the exact nodes in the seris which creates the loop.
Even exception handling not working in that.
Please advice.
