Error in Function - Function is invalid

Hi
I created a function
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION REGSUB(Value1 in varchar2, Value2 in varchar2)
RETURN varchar
IS
var_Value1 varchar2 := NVL(Value1,'0');
var_Value2 varchar2 := NVL(Value2,'0');
var_Result varchar2(20) := '0';
BEGIN
var_Result := regexp_replace(REGEXP_SUBSTR (var_Value1, '<Initiative>[^<]+', 1, var_Value2),'<Initiative>') ;
RETURN var_Result;
END REGSUBSTR;
but when i try to complie it i get REGSUB is invalid.
Where am i going wrong?

Sorry That was by mistake
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION REGSUBSTR(Value1 in varchar2, Value2 in varchar2)
RETURN varchar
IS
var_Value1 varchar2 := NVL(Value1,'0');
var_Value2 varchar2 := NVL(Value2,'0');
var_Result varchar2(20) := '0';
BEGIN
var_Result := regexp_replace(REGEXP_SUBSTR (var_Value1, '<Initiative>[^<]+', 1, var_Value2),'<Initiative>') ;
RETURN var_Result;
END REGSUBSTR;
I donot get any other error apart from REGSUBSTR is invalid.
How can i look for the exact error?
I am using PL/SQL Developer.

Error in function PTCard.Store (): -2147467259

hello,

I am trying to add a card to the knowledge directory using API. I call IPTCard.Store() method to store the card. below is my code.
public void createCard(int folderParent, String cardName){
IPTCatalog catalog = session.GetCatalog();
IPTCard card = catalog.CreateCard();
card.SetName(cardName);
int[] parentIds = {folderParent};
card.SetCardSettings(PT_CARD_SETTINGS.PT_CARD_PARENTFOLDERIDS, parentIds);
card.SetDescription("test description.");
card.Store();
But when i call "IPTCard.Store()" method, it returns the following error;

 com.plumtree.openfoundation.util.XPException: Error in function PTCard.Store (): -2147467259 - Failed to store card: storing cards in DB failed
does anybody have an idea, why this error appears ??
thank you for ur openion in adv.



I can't tell from the error, but I suspect you will need to associate the card with a data source (content upload or similar) before it can be stored in the database (PTCard.Store).
Since I don't remember exactly how I did this at one point, I have provided some code below that I hacked from the API and changed around. It sets some extra stuff related to the file upload data source, but you can probably use some of it to piece together data source info. Here are some relevant lines that you'll probably need to fudge with:
 IPTDataSource ptDS = (IPTDataSource)
session.GetDataSources().Open(nDataSourceID, false);
 string strCardPropBagXML = pbagCardProp.SaveToXML(0);
 ptDS.ImportDocument(strCardPropBagXML, nDocTypeID, ptCard, true, null);
And here's the rest of the code it was ripped from...
 // Functions in this region were somewhat ripped from the UI source (KD submission space)
 // they have been slightly cleaned and commented for clarity (actual card submission happens here)
 public static IPTCard SubmitCard(int dataSourceId, int parentFolderId, string name, string description, string path, string type, string docId, string duServer, string duId, SortedList propertyList, IPTSession session, AActivitySpace space) {

How to display "Non-Fatal Run-Time Error In Function Panel" dialog?

I'm learning how to develop an IVI-C specific driver using LabWindows/CVI. When I run my function from its function panel and it returns an error, I would like to display a dialog with both the error code and error message (as opposed to simply returning an error code on the function panel). This would save the user from having to call Prefix_error_message() to translate the error code to its error message. NI-DCPower driver is a good example of this behavior (see attached error dialog). How do I show the "Non-Fatal Run-Time Error In Function Panel" dialog? Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Hi Shawn,
Thank you for replying to my post. The checkErr is just an error handling macro defined in ivi.h to goto Error: tag when the function returns a non-zero value. I have been using the checkErr macro (as well as viCheckErr and other macros) in my driver.
Using the same hp34401a specific driver as an example, please allow me to explain my question in more details:
Let's take the hp34401a_close function as an example. It is a simple function with only a few lines of code:
When the hp34401a_close function is run from its front panel using an invalid session handle (e.g. "8" in this screen capture):
You will get three "Non-Fatal Run-Time Error" popup dialogs, one from each of the IVI library functions that it calls: Ivi_LockSession, Ivi_UnlockSession, and Ivi_Dispose. However, there is no "Non-Fatal Run-Time Error" popup dialog from the hp34401a_close itself.
My IVI-C specific driver is behaving identical to the hp34401a specific driver.
In comparison, if run niDCPower_close function from its front panel using an invalid session handle (using the same "8" in this screen capture):
You will only get one "Non-Fatal Run-Time Error In Function Panel" from the niDCPower_close function itself:
I think the behavior of niDCPower driver is much better than the hp34401a driver. It replaces the three "Non-Fatal Run-Time Error" popup dialogs from the IVI library with a single "Non-Fatal Run-Time Error In Function Panel" popup dialog from the driver function itself. I would like to do the same thing with my driver but have not figured out how to display a "Non-Fatal Run-Time Error In Function Panel" dialog. Thanks in advance for your help!

Utility library error string function?

I've been working on an Error Handler library, culled mostly from these wonderful fora (Roberto!). I can't seem to find an error code string generator for the functions in the Utiltiy Library though (in particular, functions like RenameFile, CopyFile, GetDir, SetDir, MakeDir, all the file i/o functions).
Most of those make mention to negative error types with some plain text explanations. But there's no mention of a nice code-to-string converter function, as there is in other libraries. For instance, for the RS232 library, there is GetRS232ErrorString. For the Formatting & I/O library, there is GetFmtIOErrorString.
Am I not seeing it somewhere? Inside the Utility library, there is a multithreading error code function called CmtGetErrorMessage.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

You're right: the Urility Library does not incorporate a function that translates error codes to a meaningful text. I suppose this is due to the fact that error codes partly overlap, so a unique function could not be used.
Just as an example, error -1 means File not found in almost all file I/O library functions, but it translates to No files found matching the search criteria in GetFirstFile () , to No more files in GetNextFiles () and Invalid Parameters in MakePathname ().
Another example: error -2 means GetFirstFile must be called before if returned by GetNextFile (), and Resulting pathname too long if returned by MakePathname ().
And this considering only File I/O section of the library!
While developing my own toolbox of utilities, I have created the following function, which I know is far from perfect and covers only file I/O functions:
char * CVIFUNC GetULibFileIOErrMsg (int error)
// Messages associated to error codes returned by functions in File Utilities class in Utility Library
switch (error) {
case 0: return "Success";
case -1: return "One of the path component not found";
case -2: return "Resulting pathname longer than 260 chars";
case -3: return "General I/O error occurred";
case -4: return "Insufficient memory to complete operation";
case -5: return "Invalid path";
case -6: return "Access denied";
case -7: return "Specified path is a directory, not a file";
case -8: return "Disk is full";
case -9: return "New file already exists";
default: return "Unknown error";
return NULL;
Proud to use LW/CVI from 3.1 on.

Error handling function: ORA-20001: get_dbms_sql_cursor error:ORA-00942: table or view does not exist is not trapped. Why?

Why APEX 4.1 Error handling function does not trap the error of missing table?
Say, I create simple application with single IR report page and I also assign standard simple error handling function.
Function works perfectly, except but this case:
If I just drop a table used by report page and then refresh the page I am getting usual APEX error message:
ORA-20001: get_dbms_sql_cursor error ORA-00942: table or view does not exist
and error handling function is not invoked at all.
Is this a feature or a bug?

You did not mention if the applicable table contains an ADT columns, nested tables and so on.
You can also do a basic test to determine if the problem is potentially with the table, or with dbms_stats itself. Create a plain table, e.g.
create table foo( id number, foo_char varchar2(100), constraint pk_foo primary key( id ) using index );
Using the exact same dbms_stats parameters, do this table. If it works, it points to a potential problem with the other table - some data structure/data type issue maybe. If it does not, then you have a problem with dbms_stats itself.
You can also drop the indexes on the DBO table and try dbms_stats with different parameters. I.e. change the conditions to see if the error still occur in order to isolate the problem.
You also could log an iTar/SR for this with Oracle Support.

ORA-06521: PL/SQL: Error mapping function with 10.1.0 external procedure

We have an external procedure running fine on 8.1.7 on VMS. After compiling and linking succesfully under 10.1.0, I get ORA-06521 PL/SQL: Error mapping function and ORA-06522: ERROR - vms_dlsym for file x, where x in the filename of the linked executable. Another external procedure that does not connect to the 10.1.0 database runs fine. What could be causing this error in Server 10.1.0 on VMS?
Thanks,
Dave

Here is the code to create the function:
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION f1
(h_file_name IN VARCHAR2)
RETURN BINARY_INTEGER
IS EXTERNAL
LIBRARY l1
NAME "f1"
LANGUAGE C
WITH CONTEXT
PARAMETERS
(CONTEST,
h_file_name string);
Here is the beginning of the Pro*C:
int f1(epctx, h_file_name)
OCIExtProcContext *epctx;
char h_file_name[70];
char h_line_txt [251];
int lineno;
FILE *fptr;
/* register the connection context ... */
EXEC SQL REGISTER CONNECT USING :epctx;
The function loads a flat file into the database. It is probably not related but are unable to SQLPLUS/ or SQLLDR/ into the database from an OS autheniticated account (get ORA-12547: TNS:lost contact.) Thanks for taking the time to look at this. There aren't many people trying this on VMS, I'd bet.

Below are list of files in my : $ORACLE_HOME/lib :

It's only a quick guess but have you checked your tnsnames.ora file to ensure you've opened the environment to find the libraries? If you set the EXTPROC_DLLS=ANY, you open the database to security issues but it should tell you if this cause because you can't access the library that contains the symbol.
SID_LIST_CALLOUT_LISTENER =
(SID_LIST =
(SID_DESC =
(SID_NAME = PLSExtProc)
(ORACLE_HOME = <oracle_home_directory>)
(PROGRAM = extproc)
(ENV = "EXTPROC_DLLS=ONLY:
<oracle_home_directory>/customlib/writestr1.so
,LD_LIBRARY_PATH=<oracle_home_directory>/lib")
)

ORA-06521: PL/SQL: Error mapping function while writting into a text file

Hi,
I'm getting an errror ORA-06521: PL/SQL: Error mapping function while trying to write data into a text file.
I'm using the following code:
--To create a new directory
create or replace directory temp as 'C:/temp';
declare
                l_str varchar2(1000);
                output_file utl_file.file_type;
                cursor test_write_cur is
                     select EMPNO,ENAME,JOB,SAL,HIREDATE
                       from EMP
                     where DEPTNO=30;
begin
           output_file := utl_file.fopen('TEMP','TESTFILE.txt','w');
           for test_write_rec IN test_write_cur
           loop
            l_str :=     test_write_rec.EMPNO||'^'||test_write_rec.ENAME||'^'||test_write_rec.JOB||'^'||
                     test_write_rec.HIREDATE||'^'||test_write_rec.SAL||chr(10);
            utl_file.put_line(output_file,l_str);
                 end loop;
           utl_file.fclose(output_file);
end;Please suggest me if i'm wrong.
Thanks & Regards,
Sanket Mishra

Dear Sanket,
I think you are need use TO_CHAR() function
to_char(test_write_rec.EMPNO) ,
to_char(test_write_rec.HIREDATE,'DD.MM.YYYY')
to_char(test_write_rec.SAL)

Call to ldap server fails ORA-06521: PL/SQL: Error mapping function

I am getting this error(s)
ORA-06521: PL/SQL: Error mapping function
ORA-06512: at "SYS.DBMS_LDAP_API_FFI", line 0
ORA-06512: at "SYS.DBMS_LDAP", line 1338
ORA-06512: at "SYS.DBMS_LDAP", line 1273
ORA-06512: at "SYS.DBMS_LDAP", line 529
ORA-06512: at line 127
after binding and searching an ldap directory.
Line 127 is:
my_dn := DBMS_LDAP.get_dn(my_session, my_entry);
Both of the 'my_xx' parameters have been successfully set earlier in the script I believe as they produce no errors and DBMS_LDAP.count_entries(my_session, my_message) returns = 1.
I am following the example at:
http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/B10501_01/network.920/a96577/smplcode.htm#636994
In fact any of the functions used in the 'while loop' in the above example give a similar error.
Apparently SYS.DBMS_LDAP_API_FFI is a call to an external C program, but this would be a standard Oracle one, not one I have written.
I am connecting to a non-Oracle ldap server, and have tried several (OpenLDAP 2.X, & Windows 2000 AD), with same results.
Any suggestions gratefully received.
Cheers
KIM

Fixed by running the catldap.sql script (ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin/catldap.sql) as SYS user and recreated the dbms_ldap packages. I am not sure why some of the functions worked OK and others did not.

Scott,
Thanks for your concern. I should have explained. I am working in HTMLdb, successfully using ldap to authenticate, but now need to get the logged-in user's name and other details. All my attemps to use the wwv_flow_ldap functions have failed, and I am no resorting to DBMS_LDAP to get what I want. I am hoping thatsome helpful person can shed some light on this problem
Cheers
