Error in retrieving data from database

Hi,
I'm now developing a program using servlet and oracle 8.1.5.0.0
I've encountered this error while I run my program:
NullPointerException
What does this means?
When I compiled that time, there is no error on the program.
Is it caused by there is no any parameter received by the database when it tried to retrieve the data but I have used the
request.getParameter("name") method to get the parameter and passed on to the database.
What's wrong with it..Please help me..
Your help will be much appreciated.
Thank You/
Regards,
Josephine

You may want to post the error stack and a small amount of source code. As you most likely are aware, the null pointer exception is a generic java error. It means that something has tried to execute a method or value from an object that is null. It is rearly (if not never) found at compile time.

  • How to retrieve data from database to the structure(complicated)

    Hello everyone:
           I want to retrieve data from database to the structure. but the structure defined like this below:
    TOLERANZOB LIKE QAMV-TOLERANZOB
    TOLERANZOB1 LIKE QAMV-TOLERANZOB
    so how can I retrieve the data from the database ? make sure that the two fields contain data both.
    Thanks in advance .
    Regards
    Nick

    Hi Nick,
    To retreive data for TOLERANZOB from QAMV,
    If you know the key fields then use
    SELECT SINGLE TOLERANZOB FROM QAMV INTO TOLERANZOB WHERE keyfields.
    else, you can use
    SELECT TOLERANZOB FROM QAMV UPTO ONE ROWS INTO TOLERANZOB WHERE....
    Once you retreive the data using the select query, you can check if it is initial and if not move the data from TOLERANZOB to TOLERANZOB1.

  • Error while retrieving data from PL/SQL Table using SELECT st. (Urgent!!!)

    Hi Friends,
    I am using Oracle 8.1.6 Server, & facing problems while retrieving data from a PL/SQL Table:

    Is it Possible to retrieve data from PL/SQL TABLE using SELECT statement? & How ?
    Thanks in advance.
    Best Regards,
    Jay Raval.

    Thanks Roger for the Update.
    It means that have to first CREATE TYPE .. TABLE in database then only I can fire a Select statement on that TYPE.
    Actually I wanted to fire a Select statement on the TABLE TYPE, defined & declared in PLSQL stored procedure using DECLARE TYPE .. TABLE & not using CREATE TYPE .. TABLE.
    I was eager to know this, because my organization is reluctant in using CREATE TYPE .. TABLE defined in the database, so I was looking out for another alternative to access PL/SQL TABLE using Select statement without defining it database. It would have been good if I could access a PLSQL TABLE using Select statement Declared locally in the stored procedure.
    Can I summarize that to access a PL/SQL TABLE using SELECT statement, I have to first CREATE TYPE .. TABLE?
    If someone have any other idea on this, please do let me know.
    Thanks a lot for all help.
    Best Regards,
    Jay Raval.
    You have to define a database type...
    create type tP2 is table of varchar2(10)
    CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE TEST_PROC
    IS
    dt2 tP2 := tP2('a','b','c');
    i NUMBER(8);
    begin
    SELECT COUNT(*) INTO i FROM TABLE(CAST (dt2 AS tP2));
    DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('**'||i);
    end;
    This will work.

  • Failed to retrieve data from database - DataDirect Paradox

    Crystal Reports 12.1.0.892

    DataDirect ODBC Driver for Paradox 5.30.00.23

    When I run the following query against two tables:

    FROM   `PHONELIN` `PHONELIN` INNER JOIN `Ticket1a` `Ticket1a` ON `PHONELIN`.`PatronID`=`Ticket1a`.`PatronID`

    where ticket1a.patronid = phonelin.patronid

  • Error while retrieving data from an ARRAY resultset

    We hava an Oracle stroed procedure which has a table type as its OUT parameter and where the data is being entered into. This data requries to be returned to the Java client through a JDBC connection. We have used the OracleTypes' ARRAY object for this. We are facing errors when retieving data from the ARRAY resultset
    The Oracle Package
    ----I created a table type called "PlSqlTable":
    CREATE OR REPLACE TYPE PlSqlTable IS TABLE OF VARCHAR2(20);

    arrayOutID(2) := 'Test';
    arrayOutID(3) := 'Ora';
    ----The procedure executes fine - all debug statements are printed ----right till the end of execution.
    The Java class
    ----Here is how I have defined the parameters :

    haven't worked with db arrays but I think your problem is here:int i = 1;
    while(rset.next()){
         System.out.println("VALUE : " + rset.getString(i));
         i = i+1;
    }In the first loop you are retrieving the value from column 1(rs.getString(1)), which is OK, but in the second loop, you are trying to retrieve a value from the second column(rs.getString(2)) which doesn't exist. Try this code which only reads from column1:
    while(rset.next()){
         System.out.println("VALUE : " + rset.getString(1));

  • How to Retrieve data from database into another form ?

    Good Day!
    Am currently new at JSP. I've been studying it for awhile and still getting the hang of it. We are working on a project.
    Editing a given data. We have to retrieve the given data and post it to another form "Editing form".
    Since we can retrieve data using JSP but how are we going to post it to another form? I mean how are we going to transfer data from one form to another?
    Can anyone help me with codes please..

    The client is a web browser.
    The client submits a request (click a link, visit a form)
    The server gets to respond to this
    - look at request parameters from the client
    - access database
    - produce resulting html page
    - send page back to client.
    The standard pattern is to retrieve data from the database in java code, and then load that data into a bean.
    You then make that bean available as an attribute
    It is then available for use in your JSP - either <jsp:useBean> tag or using ${ELexpressions}
    All you can pass from the client to the server is request parameters - which are always strings.
    Draw a picture of where the information is, and the information flows. Very rarely does it go directly from one "form" to another.
