Error in replicat when updating a row

Question

Oracle 11gR2
OGG 11.1.1.1.5
I am getting the following error when updating a row that exists in both the target and source db:
OCI Error ORA-01403: no data found, SQL <UPDATE....The following is in the discard file:
Record not found
Mapping problem with compressed key update record (target format)...
...The row DOES exist in the target db for sure. But for some reason it thinks that it is not there...why?
Here are the exact steps I did:
1. Created a table in source
2. Create the same table in target (explicitly not through replication as we have an exclude filter on 'CREATE')
3. Inserted rows into source table (which were replicated to target table).
4. Delete a row in the source table (which were not applied to target as I am using the IGNOREDELETE parameter)
5. Update a row in the source table (this is where I got the above mentioned error 'ORA-1403' even though the row does exist.)

Answer 1

mb_ogg is very likely right - you forgot to "add trandata" as that's the number one most common reason for an ORA-1403 (ANSI 100) no data found error.
The problem is that Oracle does not automatically log the PK, it only logs that which changed. Down at the replicat on the target it tries to update but the WHERE clause has PK = NULL because it was not logged in the redo. To have it logged in the redo so that the target UPDATE statement has a correct value for PK, you need to use GGSCI to issue "add trandata," which performs an "ALTER TABLE ADD SUPPLEMENTAL LOG GROUP ... ALWAYS".
"INFO TRANDATA", if using OGG version 11.2+ on Oracle it will tell you if logging is enabled on a table and for which columns.
Good luck,
