Form_check.php returns SQL Configuration Problem

Hello, I am hosting the MUSE outside of BC and the form cannot send out email. http://<website>/scripts/form_check.php shows that there is a SQL Configuration Problem. How to fix?

Repplying to myself Ok, after lots of frustration, tickets to web host admin, forum crawlign it looks like the problem was either on the PHP-versio or the name of the form. The forms were titled with Scandinavian characters and "/"-mark so after simplified the forename from muse the messages came trough! The thing is that also did change in control panel of my web host from PHP-version 4.3 to PHP 4.5 so not sure which one did the job, actually i did try with fresh-starndard forms out of Muse and also with the complexly-named ones and the later did not come trough with the PHP-version change. So i would expect that it was both - naming and php-version.
Hopefully this will help others since painful form-issue it was. Used woo-forms for whole but in terms of easy updatebility i decided to go with MUSE one. Tool still missing crucial features like radio buttons but looks like Muse been little hobby of Adobe so features coming in one by one, slowly but surely.
Not sure though if next time will be building site using DW since these small limitations - issues makes life so much harder. When the app works it works like charm but when issue arrises you better of building stuff from scratch.

PL/SQL function body returning SQL Query Problem

I have wandered around the forums and found quite a bit of helpful information that has gotten me to the point I am now at. Unfortuntely, PL/SQL is not my strongest point and I am getting an error when I attempt to run my report.
This is what I have for my package:
CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE LIB2.report_query
is
function create_report2(v1 IN varchar2) RETURN VARCHAR2;
end report_query;
CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE BODY LIB2.report_query
as
function create_report2(v1 in varchar2) return varchar2
is
l_vc_format HTMLDB_APPLICATION_GLOBAL.VC_ARR2 := HTMLDB_UTIL.STRING_TO_TABLE(v1);
l_format varchar2(255) := HTMLDB_UTIL.TABLE_TO_STRING(l_vc_format);

This query will never work. I marked only couple of errors you have there. Actually,
I meant "formating" errors rather than "syntactical" errors. You are missing spaces
all over the place. This is why I suggested to use a CLOB column in a test table
to return the query for debugging purposes - this is how I do it at least, when I need
to escape and concatenate a lot of code.
If you are referencing item values from a user session in a function or a procedure,
then you need to use the v('ITEM') syntax instead of :ITEM syntax. However, if the
output of this procedure will be used as a function returning SQL query, you will
be fine with :ITEM.

PL/SQL function body return sql query, no data found problem

Hi all,
we are trying to build a dynamic report based on item selection by user. we are using SQL Query (PL/SQL function body returning SQL query). However when a user change the item and submit the page . The following error appears.
ORA-01403: no data found.
our query is so simple
declare
l_query varchar2(30000) default 'select id from chw';
begin
if(:P11_PARA=1) then
l_query:='select name from chw';
end if;
return l_query;
end;
any quick help please.

Hello Mike,
I tried it, the problem still exists.
ORA-01403: no data found
my new code is
declare
l_query varchar2(30000) default 'select id from chw';
begin
if (nvl(TO_NUMBER(:P11_PARA),0) = 1) then
l_query:='select name from chw';
end if;
return (l_query);
end;
note, there is no process in this page.

SQL Verification Problem / Muse Form Issue (Server uses MySQL muse uses SQLite) I'm in desperate need of help

 Alright well here is my issue... I have been trying to fix it on my own for the past week non stop and I have finally came to a solid conclusion as to the cause of the issue.
 I always get the error "The server has encountered an error..." in red text when anyone tries to submit a form and also when I try and test it myself. This led me to test the server / site for compatibility or issues by using the test:
mydomain.com /scripts/form_check.php
I got the first two checks green (pass) and the third test threw a red check meaning I was having an issue with SQL verification. This then led me to days of trying to work with my hosting provider (one.com) trying to solve the problem and I was told that they use mySQL on their servers and that they couldn't do anything on their end to solve the issue. I read alot that we are recommended in this case to try and get our host to add the SQLite database to their server or whatever it is they would do, long story short I guess many people are able to ask their host to make SQLite work and most accept and add SQLite functionality to their servers but unfortunately my hosting provider doesn't want to do this and they said they were sorry and that I would need to either switch the script to work with mySQL or figure something else out...
 I took a lot of time building my site and I dont want to take the form out. I absolutely need it... I know many post on here saying "forms dont work, oh poop " or "adobe sucks I dont want to use business catalyst grrr" but I tried to find the source of the problem and I've successfully came to the conclusion that my issue is that my script wants to use SQLite but in order for my sites forms to work the server needs to have SQLite as well... My idea is that if I can configure the script and the site itself to use mySQL instead of SQLite the SQL verification will then not be an issue and my websites forms will function with no issues. I am curious if a member of the staff with adobe has experience with this particular issue and can help me out? or if a member of the adobe community has solved this problem? If not I am hoping that with the description I provided that someone with knowledge of mysql, sqlite or code in general could help me modify the script or write a new script that will allow the forms to work properly. I know its a long shot, I say that because this discussion is full of people who used muse in favor of dreamweaver because just like a large number of people in the muse discussion area, I'm a graphic designer, with plenty of computer experience, art and design skill and I am extremely familiar with photoshop. Muse is perfect in so many ways. In fact, like I mentioned above, I don't even have a complaint at this time about muse. I understand the form issue in this case, and I imagine in thousands of other users situations, is all just a matter of scripts and compatibility.. Its just a little issue between the SQLite scripts we are all given when we export our muse website and the SQL version our various hosting service may be using on their servers.
 Just incase I missed anything, to provide just a bit more info on the topic and myself for anyone who may be able to help:
I can alter the text inside of the scripts easily if anyone happens to know any lines of code that easily solve this issue (making the muse contact forms, which are native to SQLite, functional on a server using mySQL)
I was told one way I could make the forms work on a server using mySQL (or any version other than SQLite) If I were to make changes to adobe muses SQL version by converting the SQLite db to mySQL db (db = database)
I am computer literate and I can take any directions necessary, I really just need to get this done, I really appreciate any help I can get!!
Thank you in advance,
Roy

Help with Flex - PHP - and SQL Server

Good afternoon,
I have been working on this problem for over a week and am at
my wit's end. I am trying to create an application that will allow
me and my fellow statisticians to share code easily. The
technologies at my disposal are Flex, PHP and SQL Server 2005. The
web server is IIS. I have downloaded and installed the PHP driver
for SQL Server 2005 and am able to query the database and generate
XML. The problem I'm having is that I can't return the XML from PHP
to Flex.
If I execute the php code in a web browser and view the
source, it looks like XML. I can then cut and paste the exact same
code into an xml file and read it in from the harddisk and the tree
will populate. Can anyone please help me? I don't have flex builder
so I it's hard for me to use trace and view what is going on.
Thanks in advance,
Eric Graves

Thanks for the suggestion. I have tried every permutation of
e4x path notation I can think of. You're right, you're not supposed
to need the root level as that's supposed to be returned in the
result. So you should only need to reference first level after the
root. When I do this and launch the .SWF I get a completely empty
tree.
I think the problem lies somewhere in my understanding of
what format Flex needs returned from a HTTPRequest. It's my
understanding that it just needs to be XML. As far as I can tell,
that's what I'm sending it. On the PHP side, does it have to be
cast a special way? Everything I've seen just shows people using
ECHO to output the XML data.

PHP and MySQL Connection problem

I am trying to make a PHP MySQL on a remote server connection in Dreamwesaver CS3.
When I enter the information (host, user, password, etc.) and hit TEST, I get the following error message.
"Access Denied. The file may not exist, or there could be a permission problem. Make sure you have proper authorization on the server and the server is properly configured."
I know the user, password, etc. work, as I can access the MySQL database with other software.
I checked with my host and they say there are no permission problems on their end.
I have checked the settings on the Test Server page in Site Setup and everything looks correct and works there.
I have not seen this particular problem described in other forum postings (although there are a LOT of postings on this topic!).
Any help would be appreciated.

I thought my testing server was the remote server and is always on as far as I know. I don't know how to turn it on or off.
Is there some other testing server that I should be aware of?

Subject: PHP and MySQL Connection problem
I know you are using remote, but is your testing server on? if not turn that on and see if that does it. it just happened to me working on remote server and could not get mysql conn to work, until I turn on my testing (developer server), then I was able to connect to mysql and the tables that I created in phpmyadmin remotly was downloaded.

Hello all,
I have encountered an interesting problem. I have an HTMLDB application with a lot of sql reports coded straight inside the report region. In order to better organize my reports, I decided to
1. make all my report regions of type "Pl/Sql function returning SQL query"
2. create a package inside my database schema which houses all reports as pl/sql functions returning VARCHAR2, the string returned being the report query
3. just calling "return package_name.function_name" from inside my report region of type "Pl/sql function returning SQL query".
This technique seemed to work perfectly. The reports were being returned as expected. I was then asked to provide the "Export to Excel" capability to all my reports. This seemed like a piece of cake using HTML DB's "Export to Excel" extension. However, the "export to excel" does not function correctly when my reports are inside a package in the database. HTML DB tries to export but inside the excel spreadsheet, instead of seeing row data, I see:
<pre>failed to parse SQL query:
ORA-00936: missing expression
<!-- select a.username, b.table_name, 'View Row Data' from schema_browser_user_list a, all_tables b where a.user_id = and a.username = b.owner order by b.table_name asc
--!>
</pre>
I am building my query string inside of my package functions by using a combination of literal strings and concatenating them with some parameter values being passed in. It seems that the HTML DB engine which exports the report to excel does not properly understand the concatenation of variables as can be seen by the empty space to the right of the equal sign in the "a.user_id = " clause. Does anybody have any input as to whether this is a known issue or if I am doing something wrong? Thanks a lot for your time.

James,
Thanks for the quick reply. I think you mis-understood what I'm doing. All I'm doing is creating packaged functions which return VARCHAR2. The VARCHAR2 that they return is the report query. With this technique, I no longer have to type the query into the HTML DB report region. Instead, I make the report region a "Pl/sql function returning sql query" and make the following call: return package_name.function_name(some_application_items passed in as parameters)
This makes for a much more organized html db app. The problem is that the "export to excel" function does not correctly interpret the VARCHAR2 that my packaged functions are returning. Is this a better explanation? Thanks again for your time.

Converting SQL Report Region to PLSQL Function Body Returning SQL Query

All:
I want to convert my SQL Report Region to a PLSQL-generated SQL Report Region so that I can eliminate where clauses dynamically and speed up my app, and also so that I can provide additional sorting options.
 
My problem is that I have lots of embedded single quotes that already are coded as 3 single quotes in the SQL Report Region. I am not sure at all how to code them within the PLSQL.
 
As example, here is one column from my query:
 
select decode(nvl(g.date_sub_1,g.date_rec_1), null, decode(g.article, 0, 'E', 1, 'U'), '< a href="javascript:unElevate( ' ' ' || g.grid || ' ' ',' ' ' || g.natca || ' ' ')">' || decode(g.article, 0, 'E', 1, 'U') || '< /a>') "Reverse" from g_table g
 
(Note that I added spaces within the code so it would display properly in the browser.)
 
To clarify, that's a double quote before javascript, and then 3 single quotes before the first concatenation group, then 3 single quotes after the second concatenation group, then 3 single quotes before the third, 3 single quotes after the fourth followed by an end-paren followed by a double quote etc.
 
My question is, what do I do with these triple-single quotes within PLSQL? Probably a no-brainer for the experienced folks, but I am thinking like a mobius strip at this point.

Scott,
I think that feature was made for my situation! I keep getting
Function returning SQL query: Query cannot be parsed within the Builder. If you believe your query is syntactically correct, check the generic columns checkbox below the region source to proceed without parsing.
(ORA-20001: Unable to bind :43 verify length of item is 30 bytes or less. Use v() syntax to reference items longer than 30 bytes. ORA-01006: bind variable does not exist)
I did chop the query up into little bits, i.e.
p_sql := p_sql || q'! ... !';
p_sql := p_sql || q'! ... !';
p_sql := p_sql || q'! ... !';
return p_sql;
But I'm not sure what I'm supposed to do here.
Thank you.
Bill

PL/SQL function body returning SQL - report error:ORA-01403: no data found

Hi,
I am working on Application Express 4.0.2.00.06, and 11G database.
I have a problem with classic report area of type - PL/SQL function body returning SQL query. Query works if I define region area as - Use Generic Column Names (parse query at runtime only), and does not when I define it - Use Query-Specific Column Names and Validate Query.
I am getting error:
report error:ORA-01403: no data found
This is my query that is returned from function, and displayed with htp.p, and it works ok and returns data in SQL Developer and SQL Workshop (in Apex).
<code>
/* select 1 from dual */ SELECT SIFPRO, NAZIV, VODITELJ, DATPZA,SUM(DECODE(TJEDAN,'2010/46',BRDJEL,null)) as "2010/46" ,SUM(DECODE(TJEDAN,'2010/49',BRDJEL,null)) as "2010/49" ,SUM(DECODE(TJEDAN,'2010/50',BRDJEL,null)) as "2010/50" ,SUM(DECODE(TJEDAN,'2010/51',BRDJEL,null)) as "2010/51" ,SUM(DECODE(TJEDAN,'2010/52',BRDJEL,null)) as "2010/52" ,SUM(DECODE(TJEDAN,'2011/01',BRDJEL,null)) as "2011/01" ,SUM(DECODE(TJEDAN,'2011/02',BRDJEL,null)) as "2011/02" ,SUM(DECODE(TJEDAN,'2011/03',BRDJEL,null)) as "2011/03" ,SUM(DECODE(TJEDAN,'2011/04',BRDJEL,null)) as "2011/04" ,SUM(DECODE(TJEDAN,'2011/05',BRDJEL,null)) as "2011/05" ,SUM(DECODE(TJEDAN,'2011/06',BRDJEL,null)) as "2011/06" ,SUM(DECODE(TJEDAN,'2011/07',BRDJEL,null)) as "2011/07" ,SUM(DECODE(TJEDAN,'2011/08',BRDJEL,null)) as "2011/08" ,SUM(DECODE(TJEDAN,'2011/09',BRDJEL,null)) as "2011/09" ,SUM(DECODE(TJEDAN,'2011/10',BRDJEL,null)) as "2011/10" FROM (SELECT * FROM PMV_PLAN_TVRTKA) GROUP BY SIFPRO, NAZIV, VODITELJ, DATPZA ORDER BY SIFPRO, NAZIV, VODITELJ, DATPZA
</code>
As you can see, I even tried with workaround that I found on the previous post on the forum, and that is to put /* select 1 from dual */ to start query.
Any help would be appriciated.

/* select 1 from dual */ SELECT SIFPRO, NAZIV, VODITELJ, DATPZA,SUM(DECODE(TJEDAN,'2010/46',BRDJEL,null)) as "2010/46" ,SUM(DECODE(TJEDAN,'2010/49',BRDJEL,null)) as "2010/49" ,SUM(DECODE(TJEDAN,'2010/50',BRDJEL,null)) as "2010/50" ,SUM(DECODE(TJEDAN,'2010/51',BRDJEL,null)) as "2010/51" ,SUM(DECODE(TJEDAN,'2010/52',BRDJEL,null)) as "2010/52" ,SUM(DECODE(TJEDAN,'2011/01',BRDJEL,null)) as "2011/01" ,SUM(DECODE(TJEDAN,'2011/02',BRDJEL,null)) as "2011/02" ,SUM(DECODE(TJEDAN,'2011/03',BRDJEL,null)) as "2011/03" ,SUM(DECODE(TJEDAN,'2011/04',BRDJEL,null)) as "2011/04" ,SUM(DECODE(TJEDAN,'2011/05',BRDJEL,null)) as "2011/05" ,SUM(DECODE(TJEDAN,'2011/06',BRDJEL,null)) as "2011/06" ,SUM(DECODE(TJEDAN,'2011/07',BRDJEL,null)) as "2011/07" ,SUM(DECODE(TJEDAN,'2011/08',BRDJEL,null)) as "2011/08" ,SUM(DECODE(TJEDAN,'2011/09',BRDJEL,null)) as "2011/09" ,SUM(DECODE(TJEDAN,'2011/10',BRDJEL,null)) as "2011/10" FROM (SELECT * FROM PMV_PLAN_TVRTKA) GROUP BY SIFPRO, NAZIV, VODITELJ, DATPZA ORDER BY SIFPRO, NAZIV, VODITELJ, DATPZA

Region source (PL/SQL function body returning SQL query)

Hi, guys.
Here is what i try to do:
Create a region of type SQL Query (PL/SQL function body returning SQL query). In the source area i tried to put this:
DECLARE
v_new VARCHAR2(10);
v_SQL varchar2(32000);
BEGIN
v_new := :P102_HDN_NEW;
-- htp.p(v_new);
IF v_new = 'N-Set' THEN
v_SQL := 'select ' ||
ELSIF v_new = 'Y-Set' THEN
v_SQL := 'select ' ||
END IF;
RETURN v_SQL;
END;
And here is the reply from APEX:
1 error has occurred
Query cannot be parsed within the Builder. If you believe your query is syntactically correct, check the ''generic columns'' checkbox below the region source to proceed without parsing. The query can not be parsed, the cursor is not yet open or a function returning a SQL query returned without a value.
Now.
1. Variable is set with the right value.
2. Each statement (separately) returns SQL that works with no problems
3. Problem occures if i try to put IF statement around the SQL creation.
4. If i select "Use Generic Column Names (parse query at runtime only)" instead of "Use Query-Specific Column Names and Validate Query" then the script returns SQL properly, however report's column names are set to Col1, Col2,Col3 ......
Thnks in advence

APEX,PDF's, BI Publisher and SQL Query returning SQL code..

I don't know if I should be posting this in this Forum or the BI Publisher forum, so I am posting in BOTH forums..
I love APEX, let me say that first.. And appreciate the support offered here by the group, but am running int a confusing issue when BI Publisher tries to build a report from the above type APEX report..
Here is my dilemma:
I have a number of reports that are part of a Oracle package. They return an SQL Query back to a reports region on a page. I am having to deal with the column names returned are col01, col02..
The issue I have is, when building the Application Level query to download the XML sample from in building RTF layouts in Word, you can not use this code, you MUST use a standard SQL Select.
I have taken the sql from the function returning sql, and copied into the application query, supplying the required data values for bind variables being used in the query.
An XML file is produced, and I use this to build the RTF format file that I load back into APEX and try to use it for the PDF rendering of the report. I can view the output as a PDF in the Word add on, but when I try using it with the report, it is returning an empty PDF file.
Can anyone tell me what error log files on the bi publisher side I can look at to see what error is happening?
Thank you,

Tony,
You can find the log as follows:
- go to http://[yourserver]:[yourport]/em
- logon to OC4J EM: oc4jadmin/[yourpassword]
- click on "logs" at the bottom of the page
- in the hgrid/tree, expand OC4J->home->Application
xmlpserver
- click on view log icon
You can also observe what's going on in BI Publisher
by going to the command prompt from where you started
it.
Or, as a third option, you can locate the file on
your file system, depending on your setup, the path
would be something similar to this:
\oracle\product\10.2.0\bip\j2ee\home\application-deplo
yments\xmlpserver\application.log
With that said though, I don't expect you'll find
much in there that would help with your particular
problem. I suspect you either get no rows in your XML
at runtime, due to some session state issues, or your
XML structure does in fact not match your RTF
template.
I'm not quite following your problem description,
i.e. when did you do what and are you associating
your report layout with a report query or report
region. So just some general notes, your query needs
to be parseable at design-time, when exporting the
XML, so that you get the XML file with the proper
column names derived from your query. If you want to
use your RTF template with a standard report region,
you must export the XML file first using the advanced
XML structure option. And of course the column names
in your report query need to match the column names
in your report region.
Perhaps this helps you further diagnose what's going
on, if you have additional information that could
help, let me know. And if you could stage this on
apex.oracle.com, I'd be happy to take a look.
Regards,
MarcMarc,
Thanks for looking at this issue. Below find my remarks to your questions..
Re: your query needs
to be parseable at design-time, when exporting the
XML, so that you get the XML file with the proper
column names derived from your query.At the start of this process, the query code was a function in a package. The function was returning an SQL select statement, for a report region on a page. I took the select statement, built an application query to build a sample of the xml for BI Publisher desktop (Add-on for Word). The code was producing the usual Col01, Col02.. since at design time that is were the column names.
When I then took the xml from this and built the rtf for loading into my APEX application.
When testing the Application Query with this RTF report layout, I am getting PDF's. When using it with the report region sending an xml feed to BI Publisher I am getting nothing back.
I have since taken the sql code and moved it back into the report region, and set the region to have a type of straight SQL Query. I have even tried to hard-code the parameters I was getting from the page to limit data returned.
Is it possible to see the xml being produced by the APEX page?
Re: Stage this on apex.oracle.com.. I would love to, but we would have HIPPA issues if I posted the data on a public website.
Can I send you the RTF file and the xml file that the application query is creating to see if there something weird about them?
Thank you,

Hi,
1/ first check you are passing the bind variables and
appropriate values in the call to your report - if
the query returns no data then you get an empty page
So if your query takes :P10_USERNAME variable then
pass it to the report in the URL
f?p=&APP_ID.:0:&SESSION.:PRINT_REPORT=YOUR_REP_QUERY_N
AME:::P10_USERNAME:MYUSER
2/ try to use the Default layout first to check your
report query really returns the data when called
3/ if you defined a header in your rtf template check
there is no & (ampersand) - if using & in the header
and preview the template from word it displays data
OK, but if you use this template in the report query
it fails to render the data (bug in Apex-> Bi
Publisher integration maybe?)
4/ If using the table in the rtf template check its
width does not overflow the page margins - there is a
problem with pdf export
5/ check
/oc4j/j2ee/home/application-deployments/xmlpserver/app
lication.log forthe information on BI Publisher runs
RadoIssue was in the APEX page having issues.. I recoded a new page and am able to generate BI Publisher based PDF files..
Thank you,

On Submit process not firing -report (PL/SQL function returning SQL query)

Can anyone suggest possible causes / solutions for the following problem?
I have a report region that uses a PL/SQL function returning SQL query. The report allows the user to update multiple fields / rows and then click a button to submit the page which should run the On-Submit process to update the database. However the process does not run and I get a 'HTTP404 page cannot be found' error; and when I navigate back using the Back button I cannot then navigate to any other page in my application without getting the same error. The button was created by a wizard selecting the options to submit the page and redirect to a (same) page. The button does not actually have a redirect in its definition but the wizard created a branch to the same page which should work and the button has the text 'submit as SUBMIT' next to it so it appears to be set up correctly.
I have recreated this page several times in my application and I cannot get the On-Submit process to run. However I have created a cut down version of the same page in the sample application on apex.oracle.com at http://apex.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=4550:1:179951678764332 and this works perfectly so I am at a loss to understand why it does not work in my application. I cannot post any part of the application itself but if anybody would like to check out page 30 of the sample application (Customer Update Test tab) updating the surnames only, using credentials ja, demo, demo this is pretty much what I have got in my application.
Any ideas would be much appreciated?

Thanks for the suggestions guys. I have now identified that the problem goes away when I remove the second table from my report query. The original report query retrieved data from two tables and the process was updating only one of the tables. I thought I had approached the task logically i.e. first get the report to display the records from the two tables, then get the process to update the first table and finally to modify the process further to update the second table.
Can anyone point me to an example of multiple row updates on multiple tables using a PL/SQL function returning an SQL query?

Using variables in PL/SQL function body returning SQL query

h4. okay so I have this procedure POSTCODE_TO_LAT_LNG_GM_API(postcode IN VARCHAR2, lat OUT NUMBER, p_long OUT NUMBER) to convert a postcode into lat/long values. I then need to add them to the returned SQL statement so I used the string concat operator || with to_char but it comes up with this error when I try to apply the changes: Query cannot be parsed within the Builder. If you believe your query is syntactically correct, check the ''generic column'' checkbox below the region source to proceed without parsing.
ORA-00936: missing expressionh4. Does anyone know what I am doing wrong here I have tried so many different ways round and none seem to work!! :/
h4. btw I'm using Oracle 11g release 11.2.0.3.0 and Apex version 4.1.1.00.23
DECLARE
l_lat NUMBER;
l_lng NUMBER;
l_SDO_GEOMETRY SDO_GEOMETRY;
l_query VARCHAR2(30000);
BEGIN

l_query := 'select

                                    8307,
                                    SDO_POINT_TYPE(' || to_char(l_lng) || ','

                                                     NULL),
                                    NULL,
                                    NULL),
0.005, ''UNIT=MILE'') DISTANCE
from   CARS';
RETURN l_query;
END;

Okay so did a little playing around and eventually got it to work, the SQL Command didn't help with the function FYI (maybe something to do with it testing SQL statements and not PL/SQL?).
My 1st problem was that one of my columns relied on an apex text box which isn't always filled in so the SQL Compiler didn't like that. To solve this I did an IF NOT NULL, ELSE statement.
My 2nd problem was after I did that i didn't have a value for Distance in the ELSE statement and so APEX didn't know weather or not to add a Distance column. I solved this by making the distance column NULL.
Here is my final working code:
DECLARE
l_lat NUMBER;
l_lng NUMBER;
l_SDO_GEOMETRY SDO_GEOMETRY;
l_query VARCHAR2(30000);
BEGIN
IF :P1_POSTCODE IS NOT NULL THEN

Query on Reoprts-pl/sql function body returning sql query

Hi,
I am facing a starnge problem.. and would like to know the reason for it.
The situation is as follows:
I have a report (pl/sql function body returning sql query based). My query is as follows:
declare
l_query1 varchar2(2000);
begin
if (:P102_min_value is not null and :P102_max_value is null) then
l_query1 := 'select decode(:P102_date,'1',date1) Transaction_Date, decode(:P102_first_name,'2',first_name) First_Name from (
select * from MORTGAGE_LOAN_LEADS where APPRX_LOAN_AMOUNT >=:P102_min_value
return (l_query1);
end if;
end;
This returns the error as :
1 error has occurred
Function returning SQL query: Query cannot be parsed within the Builder. If you believe your query is syntactically correct, check the generic columns checkbox below the region source to proceed without parsing.
(ORA-06550: line 7, column 20: PLS-00103: Encountered the symbol "1" when expecting one of the following: * & = - + ; < / > at in is mod remainder not rem <> or != or ~= >= <= <> and or like LIKE2_ LIKE4_ LIKEC_ between || multiset member SUBMULTISET_)
How do i correct this? am i right in thinking that the single quotes indicating a string within a select query is creating the problem? Beacuse if i use an sql query report and use the following query, it is working fine...
select
decode(:P102_date,'1',date1) Transaction_Date,
decode(:P102_first_name,'2',first_name) First_Name
from (
select * from MORTGAGE_LOAN_LEADS where APPRX_LOAN_AMOUNT >=:P102_min_value
But i need to write pl/sql function, so that multiple report can be returned based on different conditions. Please guide me.
Thanks,
Sumana

Does that mean that both in if and else we need to have same columns selected?
if thats the case.. any idea how i can implement it in my code. The situation here is that the columns that need to be selected are dynamic and keep on changing...
if i try to implement like this and run the page, it gives the following error:
Query is:
declare
l_query1 varchar2(4000);
begin
if apex_application.get_current_flow_sgid(:APP_ID) = apex_application.get_sgid then
if (:P102_min_value is not null and :P102_max_value is null) then
l_query1 := 'select decode(' || :P102_date|| ',''1'',date1) Transaction_Date, decode(' || :P102_first_name || ',''2'',first_name) First_Name from (
select * from MORTGAGE_LOAN_LEADS where APPRX_LOAN_AMOUNT >=' || :P102_min_value ||'
elsif (:P102_min_value is null and :P102_max_value is not null) then
l_query1 := 'select decode(' || :P102_date|| ',''1'',date1) Transaction_Date, decode(' || :P102_first_name || ',''2'',first_name) First_Name from (
select * from MORTGAGE_LOAN_LEADS where APPRX_LOAN_AMOUNT >=' || :P102_max_value ||'
else
l_query1 := 'select date1,first_name from MORTGAGE_LOAN_LEADS where rownum = 1';
end if;
else
l_query1 := 'select date1,first_name from MORTGAGE_LOAN_LEADS where rownum = 1';
end if;
return l_query1;
--dbms_output.put_line( l_query1);
end;
The Error is:
failed to parse SQL query:
ORA-00936: missing expression
If i try to run the same in command prompt, it always goes to the else part... (else of outer if)
