Help discovering what's wrong w/ my before update trigger
Let me prefix this w/ the fact that I'm an idiot, so be kind.
I have one trigger that is not working (seemingly), and I am about googled out so I thought I'd ask and see if anyone couldn't provide thoughts, insults, suggestions or what have you.
Database being used is 10g XE and updates are being done transactionally.
I have a table that stores (among other things) the status of a particular type of (app specific) transaction. When that status changes to a particular value, I have a trigger that updates another table with the date that this status change took place.
<pre>Table: XTransaction
id (pk)
statusid (int)
...</pre>
and here is what my trigger looks like:
<pre>create or replace trigger x_transaction_update before update on xtransaction
for each row
declare
begin
if( :old.statusid = 1) then -- this is here because I got an error when I tried to use a when clause above
begin
-- I log before the update w/ some other info to tell whether I've been to this spot or not
update sometable set when_it_happened = sysdate where xtransid = :old.id;
-- I log after the update too
exception
when others then
-- I log sqlerrm
end;
end;
end if;
end;</pre>
here's what I've been able to gather through testing & viewing logs from the trigger:
1. there's no exception being logged,
2. the pre/post update logs with all the correct data (proving that the trigger is fired),
3. when I update xtransaction from visual studio (through the oracle addin which lets you run queries against the database), the status is changed, the trigger is fired, and the other table is updated.
4. when the application that normally updates the xtransaction table runs, xtransaction is updated, the trigger is fired, and sometable is not updated.
so I have absolutely no clue where to go with this one. Usually I could fire up sql server's query analyser and watch what's coming through, and I've tried to use toad's commercial tool to do this, but to no avail. I've tried changing it to an after update, but had the same results. I wrote this some months ago, and it was working then, but not now.

@Centinul
the only difference between what I posted and the actual trigger are table / column names, and a sproc I wrote for the logging in place of the comments I have:
log_msg('update sometable set arrival = sysdate where transid = ' || :old.id);I know this doesn't answer the question you have now, you should seriously consider removing the WHEN OTHERS clause altogether OR ensure that there is a RAISE or RAISE_APPLICATION_ERROR there.
This trigger isn't syntactically correct either:
create or replace trigger x_transaction_update before update on xtransaction
for each row
declare
begin
if( :old.statusid = 1) then -- this is here because I got an error when I tried to use a when clause above
begin
-- I log before the update w/ some other info to tell whether I've been to this spot or not
update sometable set when_it_happened = sysdate where xtransid = :old.id;
-- I log after the update too
exception
when others then
-- I log sqlerrm
end;
end; /* Extra END here.... */

Mutating error : row level BEFORE UPDATE trigger
Hi,
I had an issue on mutating terror(was trying to write a row level BEFORE update trigger), however i got it resolved after refering tom kytes web site. I thought i would share it with everyone, might be helpful for a few... Thanks!
I will be more than happy to learn on further better ways of resolving this issue.

Hi,
I'm looking for a solution to find out which columns are set in the update-statement inside a before update trigger. Can someone give me a hint?!
What I want to do:
I want to ensure that an update-statement for a special table always include attribute "XXX". To declare this attribute as "not null" is useless, because it is set correctly at insert. To compare the new value against the old value in a before update trigger isn't possible because the new value can be the same as the old value.
I'm using Oracle 8i.There is no need to use two triggers and a temporary table where a simple insert from the before trigger will do the job.
You can just insert the :old.column values straigth into a history table within the before update trigger though I would prefer to use an after update trigger. Nevertheless, both the insert into history and the update will be part of one transaction so the two action will commit or rollback together:
UT1 > create or replace trigger marktest_bu
2 before update on marktest
3 for each row
4 begin
5 insert into marktest_hist
6 values (:old.fld1, :old.fld2, :old.fld3, :old.fld4);
7 end;
8 /
Trigger created.
UT1 > select * from marktest_hist;

UT1 > update marktest set fld1 = 'trigtest2'

Slow update on 11g in conjuction with before update trigger
Hello,
I have strange problem - when on table exists before update trigger(in its body is nothing important, maybe problem is on other triggers aswell), then repeating update on this table is slower and slower on 11g, on 10g it is ok. Problem is on windows and linux platform aswell.
I created some scripts to simulate this behavior, in table is 60 000 row. In one loop I update all 60 000 rows from table and measure time.
Can someone tell me where problem is and if it is possible to manage it with some settings or anyway ? In our application it is big problem, similar operation takes days ......

Hi all.
Just bought my first video from iTunes Store and should watch it with my son. I had to authorize, this and that for some time, but finally I got the video in my iTunes, but it was just a black screen. Nothing playing and no sound (of course). So I tried VLC and it was at least runing there, but no screen and no sound. Quick time said I had to authorize my iTunes acount first (which I had done several times before) and did it again with just the same result, nothing happening. What's wrong? I'm no geek so please help me out with this, I thought it should be easy piecy with a iMac and iTunes, well, hope it was a one in a million problem.

HELP!What's wrong with my GZIP program?
Here's part of the source code:
static void Compress(String strfilename)
int iTemp;
try
BufferedReader brIn=new BufferedReader(new FileReader(strfilename));
BufferedOutputStream bosOut=new BufferedOutputStream(new GZIPOutputStream(new FileOutputStream(strfilename+".gz")));
while(true)
iTemp=brIn.read();
if(iTemp==-1) break;
bosOut.write(iTemp); }
brIn.close();
bosOut.close();
catch(Exception e)
System.out.println("Error: "+e);
If I use it to compress a small file(20k),the compression is successful,and I can also see it using WINRAR;but once I decompress
this GZIP file,all the English words are correct,while other unicodes
such as Chinese become unrecognizable;
If I use it to compress a "large" file(3M) such as abc.chm,the size of the compressed file is about 2M(INCREDIBLE! WINRAR can only decrease
the size of this file by 30k);But..the size of decompressed file is
still about 2M,and windows cannot read it (Invalid page error).
I wonder what's wrong with my program? Even if I use "javac -encoding
gb2312 ..." to compile my program,the result is also the same.
HOW SHOULD I DO??Hi, jchc,
Let me help you a little bit, here. hwalkup is correct that for data compression you should use input and output stream instead of readers and writers. I don't think that mixing a reader with an output stream would work anyway as streams read and write bytes (8-bit data), while readers and writers read and write characters (16-bit data). hwalkup is also correct to suggest that you should use a buffer (a byte[]) to improve the performance of your streaming processes.
Here is code for methods to compress and decompress one file into another. Note: the decompress() method will throw an IOException if the file to decompress (inFile) is not actually compressed in the first place.
public static void compress(File inFile, File outFile)
throws FileNotFoundException, IOException {
InputStream in = null;
OutputStream out = null;
try {
in = new BufferedInputStream(new FileInputStream(inFile));
GZIPOutputStream gzipOut = new GZIPOutputStream(
new FileOutputStream(outFile));
out = new BufferedOutputStream(gzipOut);
byte[] buffer = new byte[512];
for (int i = 0; (i = in.read(buffer)) > -1; ) {
out.write(buffer, 0, i);
out.flush();
gzipOut.finish(); // absolutely necessary
} finally {
// always close your output streams before your input streams
if (out != null) {
try {
out.close();
} catch (IOException e) {
if (in != null) {
try {
in.close();
} catch (IOException e) {
public static void decompress(File inFile, File outFile)
throws FileNotFoundException, IOException {
InputStream in = null;
OutputStream out = null;
try {
GZIPInputStream gzipIn = new GZIPInputStream(
new FileInputStream(inFile));
in = new BufferedInputStream(gzipIn);
out = new BufferedOutputStream(new FileOutputStream(outFile));
byte[] buffer = new byte[512];
for (int i = 0; (i = in.read(buffer)) > -1; ) {
out.write(buffer, 0, i);
out.flush();
} finally {
// always close your output streams before your input streams
if (out != null) {
try {
out.close();
} catch (IOException e) {
if (in != null) {
try {
in.close();
} catch (IOException e) {

Installed the iTunes 10 update on my computer (Windows 7). iTunes will no longer launch and I get no error msg. Tried uninstalling and reinstalling entire app but no help. What's the fix??
Hi sahgin,
The issue eventually resolved itself, I still don't really know why. I kept up with Windows update, and attempted downloading iTunes again from the Apple website, and it just... worked. It now works fine. I don't know why it took approximately 4 months to work, though.
I'm sorry I don't have any more helpful information. Posting here was my last resort, and clearly Apple never bothered to reply. -

Before Update Trigger compilation problem
Hello experts! I have a compilation problem for a trigger I am trying to create.
As a matter of fact it should update INT_INITIAL with the old value of INT_LOCK.
The compilation fails and the debugger raises an ORA 01747 error (invalid declaration for user table, user column etc.)
Do you have an idea what is wrong with my code?
create or replace
TRIGGER TRIGGER_INT_INITIAL
BEFORE UPDATE ON TBL_MATRIX_INTERMEDIATE_RESULT
FOR EACH ROW
Begin
IF NVL(:new.INT_INITIAL, 0) != :old.INT_LOCK THEN
UPDATE TBL_MATRIX_INTERMEDIATE_RESULT set
:NEW.INT_INITIAL = :old.INT_LOCK;
END IF;
END;Regards,
SebHi Seb,
You don't need to use UPDATE stmt here as you are updating the same table on which your trigger is fired. So it may cause mutating table error too.
when you use :new.colname it will immediately take care of the new value to be inserted in the respective column.
So no need to write Update stmt.
Hence remove,
UPDATE TBL_MATRIX_INTERMEDIATE_RESULT set And use := is an assignment operator whereas = is to equate..

adamI guess I couldve done that, but was using design editor and didn't know how to put a unique constraint in. Is the problem only because I'm referencing the :old.sample_ID, or the :new values as well? If it's just the :old value I could write a before update statement trigger to place the sample_id into a package varaible and then call that variable up in the row level trigger.... i've tried this, but don't know how to pull the sample_id value i need in the before statement trigger... i'll supply the code i've done so far...

After/before update trigger
Hi All
Does any onoe know
what 's the difference between after update/insert trigger and before update/insert trigger
on database tables.Hi
The basic diffrence is
Before Update triggers before the table is updated and
After update triggers after the table is updated but
before the implicit commit fires.
therefore when you raise the application error a
implicit Rollback happens and the record is not commited.

Halting the update from a BEFORE UPDATE trigger
Hello,
I'm writing a trigger which is set to fire before update. One of the possible scenarios requires that the row being updated is not updated but instead deleted. Is it possible to send a DELETE query and then stop the update process so it doesn't spit out an error? I haven't tested this yet, but I'm quite sure it will give an error if it's trying to update a row which has just been deleted.
Thanks,
PavelHi,
Personally, I don't like implement some business logic into trigger... so, why run an update whenever you need a delete ?
I would modify the original code to delete in this case instead of update.
My 2 cents,
Nicolas.

- Do nothing (i.e. do not update any data in any table)
That is a syntactically valid state-- Oracle will certainly allow you to have an INSTEAD OF UPDATE trigger that effectively throws away update statements. It's just that it would be rather rare that this would be the desired behavior. Presumably, if you're going through the effort of writing the trigger, you want certain update statements to succeed and, thus, to update data. If that is the case, your trigger would have to have UPDATE statements that update the proper row(s) in the proper base table(s).
An INSTEAD OF UPDATE trigger is literally that. You are replacing, in its entirety, the update statement against the view with the code in your trigger. So your trigger would need to issue the base table updates that Oracle would have had there not been a trigger on the view.
