Imp-00020 long column too large for column buffer size (22)

Hi friends,
I have exported (through Conventional path) a complete schema from Oracle 7 (Sco unix patform).
Then transferred the export file to a laptop(window platform) from unix server.
And tried to import this file into Oracle10.2. on windows XP.
(Database Configuration of Oracle 10g is
User tablespace 2 GB
Temp tablespace 30 Mb
The rollback segment of 15 mb each
undo tablespace of 200 MB
SGA 160MB
PAGA 16MB)
All the tables imported success fully except 3 tables which are having AROUND 1 million rows each.
The error message comes during import are as following for these 3 tables
imp-00020 long column too large for column buffer size (22)
imp-00020 long column too large for column buffer size(7)
The main point here is in all the 3 tables there is no long column/timestamp column (only varchar/number columns are there).
For solving the problem I tried following options
1.Incresed the buffer size upto 20480000/30720000.
2.Commit=Y Indexes=N (in this case does not import complete tables).
3.first export table structures only and then Data.
4.Created table manually and tried to import the tables.
but all efforts got failed.
still getting the same errors.
Can some one help me on this issue ?
I will be grateful to all of you.
Regards,
Harvinder Singh

Thanks, but this note is for older releases, 7.3 to 8.0...
In my case both export and import were made on a 11.2 database.
I didn't use datapump because we use the same processes for different releases of Oracle, some of them do not comtemplate datapump. By the way, shouldn't EXP / IMP work anyway?

Providing more information/background is probably the wise thing to do.
Versions (databases, exp, imp), commands and parameters used - copy&paste, relevant part of logs - copy&paste, describe table, etc.
Some background, like what's the purpose, did this work before, what has changed, etc.
Also you might check the suggested action for the error code per documentation:

Yes it's probably due to different char sets
A way around it it to change the DB setup on the new database to use CHAR as default for varchar2 rows, and then use datapump to do your import/export, because datapump uses the default varchar2 type when creating tables that includes varchar2 (which is normally byte). Exp/imp uses the varchar2 type that is in the original database

Inserted value too large for column error while scheduling a job

Hi Everyone,
I am trying to schedule a PL SQL script as a job in my Oracle 10g installed and running on Windows XP.
While trying to Submit the job I get the error as "Inserted value too large for column:" followed by my entire code. The code is correct - complies and runs in Oracle ApEx's SQL Workshop.
The size of my code is 4136 character, 4348 bytes and 107 lines long. It is a code that sends an e-mail and has a +utl_smtp.write_data([Lots of HTML])+
There is no insert statement in the code whatsoever, the code only queries the database for data...
Any idea as to why I might be getting this error??
Thanks in advance
Sid

The size of my code is 4136 character, 4348 bytes and 107 lines long. It is a code that sends an e-mail and has a utl_smtp.write_data(Lots of HTML)SQL variable has maximum size of 4000

Error on reverse on XML: value too large for column

Hi All,
I am trying to reverse engineer while creating the data model on XML technology.
My JDBC URL on data server reads this:
jdbc:snps:xml?d=../demo/abc/CustomerPartyEBO.xsd&s=MYEBO
I get an error while doing the reverse.
java.sql.SQLException: ORA-12899: value too large for column "PINW"."SNP_REV_KEY_COL"."KEY_NAME" (actual: 102, maximum: 100)
After doing some check through selective reverse, found that this is happening only for few tables, whose names are quite longer.
Tried setting the "maximum column name length" and "maximum table name length" to 120 and even higher values on XML technology from Topology Manager. No luck there.
Thanks in advance for any help here.

That is not the place to change.
The error states that the SNP_REV_KEY_COL.KEY_NAME in the Work Repository schema PINW has maximum length defined to be 100.
I donot know if Oracle will support this change but you will have to make a change to the Work Repository table SNP_REV_KEY_COL and change the column lengths as a workaround.

Adding virtual column: ORA-12899: value too large for column

I'm using Oracle 11g, Win7 OS, SQL Developer
I'm trying to add virtual column to my test table, but getting ORA-12899: value too large for column error. Below are the details.
Can someone help me in this?

12899. 00000 - "value too large for column %s (actual: %s, maximum: %s)"
*Cause:    An attempt was made to insert or update a column with a value
           which is too wide for the width of the destination column.
           The name of the column is given, along with the actual width
           of the value, and the maximum allowed width of the column.
           Note that widths are reported in characters if character length
           semantics are in effect for the column, otherwise widths are
           reported in bytes.
*Action:   Examine the SQL statement for correctness. Check source
           and destination column data types.
           Either make the destination column wider, or use a subset
           of the source column (i.e. use substring).When I try to select, I'm getting correct results:
SELECT col1, (REGEXP_REPLACE (col1, '^ABCD[A-Z]*_'))
FROM test_reg_exp;Thanks.

Yes RP, it working if you give col2 size >=400.
@Northwest - Could you please test the same w/o having a regex clause in col2?
I doubt on the usage of a REGEX in this dynamic col case.
Refer this (might help) -- http://www.oracle-base.com/articles/11g/virtual-columns-11gr1.php

Notes and restrictions on virtual columns include:
Indexes defined against virtual columns are equivalent to function-based indexes.
Virtual columns can be referenced in the WHERE clause of updates and deletes, but they cannot be manipulated by DML.
Tables containing virtual columns can still be eligible for result caching.
Functions in expressions must be deterministic at the time of table creation, but can subsequently be recompiled and made non-deterministic without invalidating the virtual column. In such cases the following steps must be taken after the function is recompiled:
Constraint on the virtual column must be disabled and re-enabled.
Indexes on the virtual column must be rebuilt.
Materialized views that access the virtual column must be fully refreshed.
The result cache must be flushed if cached queries have accessed the virtual column.
Table statistics must be regathered.
Virtual columns are not supported for index-organized, external, object, cluster, or temporary tables.
The expression used in the virtual column definition has the following restrictions:
It cannot refer to another virtual column by name.
It can only refer to columns defined in the same table.
If it refers to a deterministic user-defined function, it cannot be used as a partitioning key column.
The output of the expression must be a scalar value. It cannot return an Oracle supplied datatype, a user-defined type, or LOB or LONG RAW.

'Value too large for column' error in msql

In my 9ilite database I have a table with a LONG column
In the documentation it says that a LONG column can hold upto 2 GB data
However when I try an insert more than 4097 characters into the column I get the error message on insert 'Value too large for column'
Is this a bug or is the documentation wrong
or am I doing something wrong ?
Any help would be much appreciated

You have run into some bug in handling intermediate results in Oracle 9i Lite. You can by pass the bug as follows in Java.

oracle.lite.poljdbc.BLOB blob = new oracle.lite.poljdbc.BLOB(
(oracle.lite.poljdbc.OracleConnection)conn);
OutputStream writer = blob.getBinaryOutputStream();
writer.write(data);
writer.flush();
writer.close();
return blob;
public static void insertRow(Connection conn, int num,
oracle.lite.poljdbc.BLOB blob)
throws SQLException
PreparedStatement ps = conn.prepareStatement(
"insert into TEST_BLOB values (?, ?)");
ps.setInt(1, num);
ps.setBlob(2, blob);
ps.execute();

Oracle 11g 64 bit - "Value too large for column" when setting Varchar2

Hello guys,
I have a machine running Oracle 11g - 64bits. And I have a table that contains a VARCHAR2(2000) field.
When I try to set the value of this field to a string that contains double byte characters, I get this error:
ORA-12899: value too large for column "QAPBG1220_11"."MYTABLE"."MYFIELD" (actual: 2433, maximum: 2000).
Although the value I'm setting is only 811 characters (€ sign).
The weird thing is that when I try to run the same query on another PC with Oracle 11g, 32 bits, It runs normally and the values are updated!!
Anyone has any idea about this? It's driving me crazy
Thanks in advance

On the 32 bit, this works fine. I get the record with the values 1 and 2000 euro signs.
On the 64 bits, there is one machine (oracle 11.2.0.1.0) that adds the row, but when I view it, the value shows as "????"
and another machine (oracle 11.1.0.7.0) that throws an error:

Any ideas?

ORA-1401: inserted value too large for column

Some versions (of Oracle 9i) insert a truncated string, newer versions (9.2.0.6.5) issue an error message and donât insert anything.
ORA-1401: inserted value too large for column
We are aware of a 2000-character limit on literal strings (might be a byte limit instead of character) but you could always use concatenation to build up a longer string 2000 at a time. But this is rejected if the field is nvarchar2 and wider than 1000 (characters).
Using a function, you can insert 2000 characters. For example, lpad(âXâ, 2000, âXâ) will go in. But this will not:
âXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXâ
||âXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXâ
. . . to >1000 characters.
If anyone knows anything about this, we would appreciate hearing from you.

we had this problem.
We talked to some oracle person who said some portlets on a page had trouble exporting.
Sure enough after we deleted all the portlets (one at a time to determine which one was giving us the problem. Turned out none of ours worked) the page exported and imported just fine.
Hopefully this is being worked on...

I believe that the partition definitions for the other partitions are not the same as the value you gave in your split statement. Check the definitions for the existing partitions.

SQL Error: ORA-12899: value too large for column

Hi,
I'm trying to understand the above error. It occurs when we are migrating data from one oracle database to another:
Error report:
SQL Error: ORA-12899: value too large for column "USER_XYZ"."TAB_XYZ"."COL_XYZ" (actual: 10, maximum: 8)
12899. 00000 - "value too large for column %s (actual: %s, maximum: %s)"
*Cause:    An attempt was made to insert or update a column with a value
which is too wide for the width of the destination column.
The name of the column is given, along with the actual width
of the value, and the maximum allowed width of the column.
Note that widths are reported in characters if character length
semantics are in effect for the column, otherwise widths are
reported in bytes.
*Action:   Examine the SQL statement for correctness. Check source
and destination column data types.
Either make the destination column wider, or use a subset
of the source column (i.e. use substring).
The source database runs - Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition Release 11.1.0.7.0 - 64bit Production
The target database runs - Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition Release 11.2.0.2.0 - 64bit Production
The source and target table are identical and the column definitions are exactly the same. The column we get the error on is of CHAR(8). To migrate the data we use either a dblink or oracle datapump, both result in the same error. The data in the column is a fixed length string of 8 characters.
To resolve the error the column "COL_XYZ" gets widened by:
alter table TAB_XYZ modify (COL_XYZ varchar2(10));
-alter table TAB_XYZ succeeded.
We now move the data from the source into the target table without problem and then run:
select max(length(COL_XYZ)) from TAB_XYZ;
-8
So the maximal string length for this column is 8 characters. To reduce the column width back to its original 8, we then run:
alter table TAB_XYZ modify (COL_XYZ varchar2(8));
-Error report:
SQL Error: ORA-01441: cannot decrease column length because some value is too big
01441. 00000 - "cannot decrease column length because some value is too big"
*Cause:
*Action:
So we leave the column width at 10, but the curious thing is - once we have the data in the target table, we can then truncate the same table at source (ie. get rid of all the data) and move the data back in the original table (with COL_XYZ set at CHAR(8)) - without any issue.
My guess the error has something to do with the storage on the target database, but I would like to understand why. If anybody has an idea or suggestion what to look for - much appreciated.
Cheers.

Use SQL Reference for datatype specification, length function, etc.

I am hoping someone might be able help me resolve this issue.
Thanks in advance

2008-09-03 14:32:43,281 ERROR [XELLERATE.AUDITOR] Class/Method: UserProfileRDGenerator/insertUserProfileChangedAttributes encounter some problems: Failed to insert change record in table UPA_FIELDS

Thankyou,
Being the OIM noob that I am, had no idea where to look.
We do indeed have some user defined fields of 4000 characters.
I am now wondering if I can disable auditing, or maybe increase the size of the auditing database column?
Also, I guess I should raise a defect in OIM as the User Interface should not allow the creation of a user field for which auditing is unable to cope.
I also wonder if the audit failures (other than causing lots of stack traces) causes any transaction failures due to transaction rollbacks?
