ERRO na linha 7:

It may be due to the value you are using for Null Replacement. Try using To_Date in that e.g.
update cargo a
set dat_validade_fim =
((nvl((select min(b.dat_validade_ini)
from cargo b
where b.cod_cargo = a.cod_cargo and
b.dat_validade_ini > a.dat_validade_ini
group by b.cod_empresa, b.cod_cargo),TO_DATE('18/08/2205 14:41:47','DD/MM/RRRR HH24:MI:SS')) - 0.00001)
where a.cod_cargo = 25

  • PJC Calendar setDate Wrong date format. Date change failed?

    Forms 10.1.2 using forms demos pjc code.
    The calendar pjc I added to my form works except I can't initialize it with a date. If I try to initialize a date it always produces 'Wrong date format. Date change failed.' error.
    In a post-query trigger, I initialize the calendar's date using:
    SET_CUSTOM_PROPERTY('PJC.CALENDAR',1,'setDate',to_char(:lead.date_received,'DD.MM.YYYY'));
    In the java console, this yields:
    Warning: Wrong date format. Date change failed.
    Warning: Wrong date format. Date change failed.
    I get the same result when using a hardcoded date like:
    SET_CUSTOM_PROPERTY('PJC.CALENDAR',1,'setDate','01.12.2006');
    What is the flaw in my incantation?

    Hello,
    This is the syntax used in the calendarpjc Forms demo:
        call the setDate method on the calendar PJC via the PL/SQL built in
        set_custom_item_property
        convert Oracle date to String recognised by Java
      procedure setDate(d in date) is
      begin
        set_custom_property(lGlobals.hCalendar,1,'setDate',to_char(d,'Mon DD, YYYY'));

    Hi Sean,
    It is saying error executing SQL statement, but with no "ORA error" so maybe its a Jasper Reports error i'm not too sure.
    And this is a different version of the one we done together, that one is running fine just having problems putting the jasper file on to the server. I'm just using the main bits from the original SQL.

  • What is this error java.sql.SQLException: Bad format for number ?

    Dear All,
    I am reading few values from database. Then I get this error "MyError:Error : java.sql.SQLException: Bad format for number 'Sarawak' in column 6. " So what is this error referring to. I have checked the database column and its value fits according the data type. Any hints please?

    I have checked the database column and its value fits according the data type.Check again. Then check again. Keep checking until you find your error. You are trying to read a string containing "Sarawak" as a number. You have "getInt(6)" or other numeric type, and the 6th column in the select statement is not numeric.

  • Wrong Date format in SQL Server

    Hello All,
    I have an asp page with a hidden field that holds
    <%=Date()%>. Because the
    Session.LCID is set to UK this value today would be
    12/03/2007 (UK format).
    When this hidden field is fed into an INSERT Stored Procedure
    in SQL Server
    in my testing environment, the date format that is inserted
    into the
    database is the same as the value in the hidden field eg
    12/03/2007, which
    is what I want.
    Now though, the site has moved to a production web server
    with SQL Server.
    When I perform this exact insert using the same webpages and
    (from what I
    can see) the same SQL Server configuration, the date inserts
    as 03/12/2007,
    US format. This is causing me big problems as the website is
    complete but
    the wrong dateformat is producing some undesirable results.
    The whole site
    is set up to expect the original format and I cannot see why
    this is
    happening.
    Does anyone have any suggestions and more importantly how I
    can change this
    please.

    There is a real issue here and it has nothing to do with the
    way that data
    is formatted on the way out.
    msSQL does seem to always assume that numbers entered in the
    format of
    00/00/00 follow the pattern of MM/DD/YY which is American
    format. So the 8th
    of March entered in UK format of 08/03/2007 ends up being
    intrepreted by SQL
    as 3rd August. However it only does this up to the 12th of
    each month. If
    you enter the 13th of March as 13/03/2007 SQL stores it
    correctly.
    The workaround does seem to enter the number in the
    YYYY-MM-DD format as
    Julian has suggested.

  • How can I find out what is causing this error in SQL Developer Data Modeler

    Friends,
    I am trying to import entities into into SQL Developer Data Modeler from Oracle Designer 10.1.2.3.
    In case of need I perform these steps to perform the import:
    File --> Import --> Oracle Designer Model --> Select database connection --> Select work area --> select application system --> select one entity --> Click finish --> Import starts
    During the import process I see an alert dialog box with the message:
    There are errors in import - check Log file Clicking Ok dismisses the alert box and I see the following summary screen:
    Oracle SQL Developer Data Modeler Version: 2.0.0 Build: 584
    Oracle SQL Developer Data Modeler Import Log

    Thanks in advance for any help you may be able to provide.

    No this helps a lot. It's not strange. Firstly, in a versioned repository you should see Private Workareas and Shared workareas, so your workarea may be in either of these. It won't be in the Global Shared Workarea, as this only for non-versioned repositories. (I like to open the RON by selecting the full Repository, that way I can see the private and shared worlareas and the configuration and containers all in the same tree.
    Now your workarea is defined by a set of rules, so when you expand the workarea in the RON, and select the object, then that's the workarea and object you'll see in the import dialog in the Data Modeler. So if you check it out and check it back in, and can't see it in the RON, then the rule is not seeing this object. (Did you refresh the workarea in the RON?) If you can't see it in the RON, you can't see it in the Data Modeler. If you're working in a versioned repository, you need to work in the specific work area, i.e V27 and this is what you need to select in the Data Modeler.
    It looks like you are selecting the wrong workarea in the Data Modeler.

  • Wrong date format when creating a universe based on a MS Analysis cube

    Hi,
    When creating a universe based on a MS Analysis 2008 cube the date objects from the cube are created in the universe with CHAR format when it should be DATE format
    I have tried to resolve the issue by modifying the date object in the universe with MDX but with little success.
    I wonder if it is an error in the cube and that it actually should be possible to get the correct date format from the cube when creating the universe automatically in the universe design tool.
    The date object is organised in a hierarchy.
    Any ideas? - both to resolve the issue by using MDX in the universe object properties or in the cube.
    The universe design tool is version 4.0 SP2 patch 5

    Oh I knew I was missing something. Ok version 2.
    I think in general this approach would work. I assumed you are starting from 1 and resetting to 1.
    There should be error handling and so forth that is not here. Probably some details need to be tweaked.
    So the key thing here AFAIK is to put the sequence reset in an autonomous procedure. Exactly how to do that may need to be modified.
    PS this version has a bug. After the reset needs to change the increment of the sequence back to 1.
    and I left that out. oops!
    /* testtrigger */
    /* previously:
    create table mytable (
    myprimary_key number(10) primary key,
    column1 number(2)
    create sequence mysequence
    start with 1
    increment by 1
    maxvalue 99
    nocache;
    create table mylastdate (lastdate date);
    insert into mylastdate(lastdate) values (trunc(sysdate));
    create or replace procedure reset_mysequence (in_correction number) is
    pragma autonomous_transaction;
    begin
    execute immediate 'alter sequence mysequence INCREMENT BY ' || in_correction || ' MINVALUE 1';
    update mylastdate set lastdate = trunc(sysdate);
    commit;
    end;
    show errors;
    create or replace trigger mytrigger
    before insert on mytable for each row
    declare
    tmpdate number(8) := null;
    lastdate_used number(8) := null;
    correction number := null;
    lastseq number(2) := null;
    begin
    if INSERTING then
    tmpdate := to_number(to_char(sysdate,'YYYYMMDD'));
    select to_number(to_char(lastdate,'YYYYMMDD')) into lastdate_used
    from mylastdate;
    select mysequence.currval into lastseq from dual;
    /* when this displays in the forum it shows lt gt as nothing on the screen
    so this should be lastdate not equal to tmpdate */
    if lastdate_used <> tmpdate and lastseq > 1 then
    correction := -(lastseq - 1);
    reset_mysequence(correction);
    end if;
    :new.myprimary_key := (tmpdate * 100) + mysequence.nextval;

  • Wrong date format in FM: RH_READ_OBJECT

    Hi All,
    I found an error in date format returned in field OBEG of FM: RH_READ_OBJECT.
    It returns: 20112804 and it should be 20110428 (this is Sap internal date format)
    It is strange because it does not happen all the time just in some particular scenarios.
    Do you have any idea about this issue? Is there any note related to this?
    Below a link to a debug screenshot:
    [http://tinypic.com/view.php?pic=1zegppt&s=7]
    Thanks!

    Hi,
    Try debugging the FM and check at which point the wrong date is passed on to OBEG export parameter.
    There is a piece of code available in FM -
    obeg  = temp_buffer-begda.
    May be some problem can occur fetching from buffer.

  • String conversion gives error when converting to date format

    Hello,
    I need to convert a character to a date format. The character string is 201053131415151 where the first eight characters represent YYYYMMDD. The string may also be null ( second value). I used the following select statement
    select distinct sysdate "Run Date",
    rcreviewdate "Review Date",
    nvl((to_char(substr(rcreviewdate,1,8))),'None') "Review Date2"
    and got the following result.
    Run Date Review Date Review Date2
    30-NOV-09 201005131415151 20100513
    30-NOV-09
    1. Why is "None" not returned for the secord valule which is null?
    2. How can the valule "20100513" be converted to DD-MON-YY ( the date format)?
    to_date(substr(rcreviewdate,1,8),'YYYYMMDD') gives the following error with the null value
    Error report:
    SQL Error: ORA-01841: (full) year must be between -4713 and +9999, and not be 0
    01841. 00000 - "(full) year must be between -4713 and +9999, and not be 0"

    TO_DATE will return NULL if its 1st argument is NULL, so it looks like reviewdate is not NULL.
    You can use LTRIM (among other functions) to remove spaces from reviewdate, if that's the problem.
    Post a little sample data (CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements), and the results you want from that data.

  • BC4J Query by example for dates uses wrong date format

    When querying by example on date fields, I get the following nested exceptions:
    oracle.jbo.SQLStmtException: JBO-27121: SQL error during statement execution.
    JBO-26044: Error while getting estimated row count for view object
    and
    java.sql.SQLException: ORA-01830: date format picture ends before converting entire input string.
    It would seem to be caused by the following clause added to the end of the entity object's query:
    "QRSLT WHERE ( ( (DATE_FIELD = TO_DATE('23/12/2003', 'yyyy-mm-dd')) ) )"
    which causes problems as our entity objects use a 'dd/MM/yyyy' date format.
    Is there a way we can make the query by example use the same date format as the rest of our app?

    I‘m not an expert on this but I see nobody is replying so this might help you. I've been having problems with dates as well and I‘m pretty sure that the attached formatter isn't used in find mode. That is because the java date class (can't remember which one) used by the BC4J has the format yyyy-mm-dd. I don't now if it is possible to change it but I got around the problem by writing my own domain. You can take a look at Toystore demo, by Steve Muench, that uses a custom date domain, ExpirationDate (see the code below). It is mapped to a VARCHAR column in the database but it is possible to map it to a DATE column.
    I have been watching the postings with questions about dates and I have noticed that a lot of people have problems with this but I haven’t seen an answer yet.

  • SQL Server date format

    Hi all,
    I realize that this may be a little bit out of the scope of this forum, but I thought I'd ask anyway.
    I'm trying to figure out how to select a date in the format mm/dd/yyyy from a SQL Server date/time field. I've browsed the internet on this but haven't found any quick/easy way to do this. Can anyone please help me out here?
    Thanks!

    Hi Stephen,
    You can use the convert function in sql to change the format of the date time field.
    select convert(varchar(13),getdate(),101) gives u the current date in mm/dd/yyyy format.
    If you want that in java you can use the SimpleDateFormat class to change the format.
    import java.text.Format;
    import java.text.SimpleDateFormat;
    import java.util.Date;
    Date currentDate = null;
    Format formatter = null;
    String date = "";
    currentDate = new Date();
    formatter = new SimpleDateFormat("MM/dd/yyyy");
    date = formatter.format(currentDate);
    This should give in the mm/dd/yyyy format.
    But both the results will be in String Format and not datetime.
    Hope this will be useful to you.
