ExecuteQueryForObject returned too many results.

Hi,
My servlet accesses an Oracle db, it works fine most of the time except for when I search for one particular entry.
When I do this the following error message is displayed:
HTTP Status 500 -

Error executeQueryForObject returned too many results
Typical Error msg:
“SqlMapClient operation; uncategorized SQLException for SQL []; SQL state [null]; error code [0]; Error: executeQueryForObject returned too many results.; nested exception is java.sql.SQLException: Error: executeQueryForObject returned too many results”
The error is caused for using queryForObject (for a single result) instead of queryForList (when expecting multiple results).
Example of correct solution
In DAO:
public List<UpdatedContractRateDO> getUpdatedCtrctRate(Map paramMap) throws DataAccessException {
return (List<UpdatedContractRateDO>) getSqlMapClientTemplate().queryForList("charge.getUpdatedCtrctRate", paramMap);
}

JDO: Query returns too many results.

Hello,
I want to get some DO-Entities from an empty table. When I execute the query I retrieve more than 2 000 000 000 results what is definitly too much for an empty table. The DO has an one-to-many relationship to another class and a many-to-one relationship to another one.
The .map and .jdo files of the class and the classes in relation made accordng to the explanations in the Development Manual chapter "Mapping Persistent Classes to Database Tables" (so including DFG- and embedded- attributes). Enhancing is successfull and the work with the classes that doesn't have relationships also.
The query looks like this:
               manager = getPersistenceFactory().getPersistenceManager();
               String filter = "version == \"" + version + "\" && postingLevel == \"" + postingLevel +
                                   "\" && closingPeriod == " + closingPeriod + " && bunit== \"" + bunit + "\"";
               Query query = manager.newQuery(AD_DO_Protocol.class, filter);
               Collection col = (Collection) query.execute();
I also tried to use the extent with the same result.
Any ideas?
Regards,
Jan

Hi Guru,
first of all in that certain method of the DAO I'm not able to use the primary key because I implement a check if an entity with the given attributes allready exists.
Second I don't want (and as I think don't have) to write the mentioned java function for the following reason: There must be max one result for the given query. Thats a constraint implied by our business logic.
In fact at the given moment there must not be a single result because the table IS EMPTY!!!
Any other ideas?
Thx and regards,
Jan

SQL Expression returning too many results

I am trying to display the value of a field in one table as a caption in the report header. This caption is above a u2018descriptionu2019 field in the details section. When I run my report, I get the description field displaying 832 times; which is the number of rows found in my caption table. Here is the structure of the two tables:
Table 1: Code, Description
Table 2: Table, Name, Field Name, Caption
Here are the SQL Expressions that I have tried:
(SELECT Caption FROM Table2
    WHERE Table2.FieldName='Description'
          AND Table2.TableName='Code')
(SELECT DISTINCT Caption FROM Table2
    WHERE Table2.FieldName='Description'
          AND Table2.TableName='Code')
And
(SELECT TOP 1 Caption FROM Table2
    WHERE Table2.FieldName='Description'
          AND Table2.TableName='Code')
If I run these directly in my Db, I get correct results. If in Crystal, incorrect results. I have tried the following suppress on the Details: Table1.Code= previous (Table1.Code) which works UNLESS I have any summaries. Once I include a summary, my total ALWAYS factors in the suppressed, duplicate records.
I have now moved to try using parameters and a sub report for each caption; however my existing reports have sub reports that also need caption changes and I am not aware of a way to add a subreport to a subreport
Any ideas?

can you use select distinct on all the queries,
crystal tends to duplicate
create a group for your distinct value
place the records in the group header and it will return the first unique value it hits.

Query returns too many results

I have this query that returns 118,900 records when I try to
add
or oth_tchname_ssn like '%123456789%'
at the end of the query.
When I remove the or oth_tchname_ssn like '%123456789%' it
returns 32 records which seems about right.
Any ideas as to where my cfquery statement is wrong?
Thanks

"Bad Data, too many results for shortname"

Every 10 minutes since October 13 the wikid error log has recorded the following error message:
*"Bad Data, too many results for shortname: username"*, always naming the same user, who is not actually doing anything.
Coinciding with that message at the same time every 10 minutes, the system log records 13 or 14 of the following:
*"Python\[15645\]: ••• -\[NSAutoreleasePool release]: This pool has already been released, do not drain it (double release)."*
15645 is a process owned by _teamserver, which would appear to confirm the connection between the python and wikid error messages.
Last clue: The messages (I have determined in hindsight) started while I was setting up the server to do vacation messages. The user named in the "Bad data" messages was the user who wanted to (and did) set up a vacation message at that time. They worked, too.
Anyone have any ideas about what is going on and how to fix it? BTW, google does not find even one page where this "Bad data" error message is mentioned.

Thanks for your response. To answer your questions:
+Are you using AD for your directory?+ No. OD master only.
+Are there users with duplicate shortnames in your directory system?+ No, and to double check, I searched with WGM and only the one came up.
+As a bit of background, the wiki server keeps an private index of user and group information so we can track user preferences, and the "Bad Data, too many results for shortname: username" error is triggered when we do a lookup in that index for a particular user and we (unexpectedly) hit duplicate entries. Are you seeing an issue with using the software, or just an annoying log message?+ It's hard to say (for me) what might be related. The directory or wiki related issues with the server include:
• A memory issue with slapd that eventually causes it to crash. (preceded by lots of "bdbdbcache: db_open(+various: sn, displayname, givenname, mail, maybe others+) failed: Cannot allocate memory (12)" and "logging region out of memory" and "index_param failed" errors.
• The wiki is slow, despite very light use.
• Wake from sleep (network clients with authentication required) can be very slow. Several minutes even.
Any suggestions you may have would be appreciated.

Help your readers help you. Remember that we cannot see your screen, do not know your data, do not understand your schema, and cannot test a query without a complete script. So - remove the derived table (to which you gave the alias "avs")
and the associated columns from your query. Does that generate the correct results? I have my doubts since you say "too many" and the derived table will generate a single row per ID. That suggests that your join between the first
2 tables is the source of the problem. In addition, the use of DISTINCT is generally a sign that the query logic is incorrect, that there is a schema issue, or that there is a misunderstanding of the schema.

Pl/Sql block returning too many values

Below is simple pl/sql block.while excecuting this i'm getting too many values exception

could anybody please help me how to rewrite this qwery to get only one record.

BUG: Searching for the word "united" in Contacts returns far too many results

To recreate this bug:
1. I open the Contacts App on my iPhone 5 running iOS 6.0.1.
2. In the search field within the app, I search for the word "united." (For example, if I am trying to located the address book card for United Airlines).
3. Instead of showing me just the results of companies/people that have the word "united" in their name or notes field, the app returns almost every single one of my contacts as a search result, EVEN THOUGH THESE PEOPLE DO NOT HAVE THE WORD "UNITED" IN THEIR NAME, DESCRIPTION, OR NOTES FIELD.
I think this might be happening because I have used the iOS feature of connecting my Contact App with Facebook. Because of this, many of my contacts have the word "unified contact info" in their description. Although this doesn't entirely explain why searching for the word "united" would show "unified contact info" contacts, the Facebook/Contacts App connection may have something to do with this bug.
Regardless, if I search for the word "united" on my iPhone, the Contact App still returns almost every single contact as a search result, even though the word "united" cannot be found within those contacts.

I think it is because the system adds "United States of America" to every address by default.
You need to search using different parameters, for example, "Airlines".

Tag Query History mode returning too many rows of data

I am running a Tag Query from HQ to a plant site and want to limit the amount of data that returns to the minimum required to display trends on a chart. The minimum required is subjective, but will be somewhere between 22 and 169 data points for a weeks data. Testing and viewing the result is needed to determine what is an acceptable minimum.
I build a Tag Query with a single tag and set it to History Mode. I set a seven day period going midnight to midnight. And I set the row count to 22. When I execute the query it returns 22 data points. But when I go to visualization, I get 565 datapoints. So obviously that is not what I want as I want a very slim dataset coming back from the IP21 server (to minimize the load on the pipe).
Any suggestions?

Hi Michael,
it looks to me like you have enabled the "Use Screen Resolution" option in your display template or in the applet HTML. Setting this option makes the display template fetch as many rows as there are pixels in the chart area. Like setting a rowcount in the applet HTML as a param, this will override any rowcount limitations you have set at the Query Template level...
Hope this helps,
Sascha

Too many results in hierarchically query

connect by nocycle prior syswflvl = upper
order siblings by upper, syswflvl, rang
What happens is, that I get the results from level 0 one times, from level 1 two times, from level 2 three times etc.
What I'm try to achive is to get only the whole thing once.
Hope you can see what my problem is ;-)

The effect of not having a start with clause in a hierarchical query is that a hierarchy is produced starting at every possible entry-point. So, you'll get the hierachy from node 1, the hierarchy from all nodes 2, the hierarchy from all nodes 3 and so one. Whether it starts with the correct one or not is not really relevant, as you already figured out that you get too much....
So, just believe it, add a start with clause...and your problems are gone.

Given a julian date range (e.g. 250-252), I am displaying the information from the Names table.
The problem is that I also need to display changes (increases/decreases) in the data. I do that by coloring the text based on a 10% increase/decrease. Data for the 3 days 250-252 would be compared to data for the previous 3 days 247-249.
Not all companies will report data on all days, so some gaps in the data may exist. Therefore, I cannot do just a simple join.
I am trying to write a query that will give me this information if the user chooses days 250-252.
Company_name
sum(logins) for days 250-252
sum(login_errors) for days 250-252
sum(logins) for days 247-249
sum(login_errors) for days 247-249
The query I'm using is:
select cur.company_name, sum(cur.logins),
sum(cur.login_errors), sum(old.logins), sum(old.login_errors)
FROM names cur LEFT OUTER JOIN names old
ON cur.company_name = old.company_name
WHERE cur.adate>='250' and cur.adate<='252'
and old.adate>='247' and old.adate<='249'
GROUP by cur.company_name
Given this data:
Company_name adate logins login_errors
ABC 247 10 10
ABC 248 20 20
ABC 249 30 30
ABC 250 15 15
ABC 251 25 25
ABC 252 35 35
My problem is that it returns:
adate cur.logins cur.login_err old.logins old.login_err
250 15 15 60 60
251 25 25 60 60
252 35 35 60 60
How can I get it to only give me the one "old" day's data? I went with the LEFT OUTER JOIN because it's possible that there is no data for an "old" day.
Thanks in advance.....

Your problem stems from the join itself, and would be the same even without the OUTER JOIN. With your data, there are 3 records in cur and 3 records in old. The join matches each record in cur to each record in old resulting in 9 records in total. Without the SUM, this is clear:
SQL> SELECT cur.company_name, cur.logins, cur.login_errors,
2         old.logins, old.login_errors, cur.adate cad, old.adate oad
3 FROM names cur LEFT OUTER JOIN names old
4                 ON cur.company_name = old.company_name
5 WHERE cur.adate>=250 and cur.adate<=252 and
6        old.adate>=247 and old.adate<=249;

9 rows selected.You can do this with only one reference to the table.
SELECT company_name,
       SUM(CASE WHEN adate BETWEEN 250 and 252 THEN logins ELSE 0 END) curlog,
       SUM(CASE WHEN adate BETWEEN 250 and 252 THEN login_errors ELSE 0 END) curerr,
       SUM(CASE WHEN adate BETWEEN 247 and 249 THEN logins ELSE 0 END) oldlog,
       SUM(CASE WHEN adate BETWEEN 247 and 249 THEN login_errors ELSE 0 END) olderr
FROM names
WHERE adate BETWEEN 247 and 252
GROUP BY company_nameHTH
