Incorrect Result by SQL Query

Dear All,
When I run the following query it should return 55 but its returning 24 instead of 55.
select TO_CHAR (TO_DATE('25-APR-2009', 'DD-MON-YYYY'),'DD')
- TO_CHAR (TO_DATE('01-MAR-2009', 'DD-MON-YYYY'),'DD') DAYS FROM DUAL;
Can any one help on this?
Thanks

Hi dejani
first get the user name and password enter by the user
using
String sUsername=request.getParameter("name of the textfield");
String sPassword=request.getParameter("name of the textfield");
after executeQuery() statement
int exist=0;
while(rs.next())

Incorrect result of SDO_ANYINTERACT query under WGS84

I have just import a country shapefile into oracle sptial with WGS spatial reference(srid is 8307 in oracle spatial) using shp2ora.
The layer contains the data of the countries in the world. And the spatial extent of that layer is -180,180,-90,90.
After importing, I built the R-tree index on that table.
When i used SDO_ANYINTERACT to query the layer, the result was incorrect. The SQL was
SELECT COUNT(*) FROM country WHERE SDO_ANYINTERACT(shape,SDO_GEOMETRY('POLYGON((-170 -80,-170 80,170 80,170 -80,-170 -80))',8307))='TRUE';
The result is 4. But the extent almost covers the whole world, the correct answer should be more than 100.
But, if I set the srid is NULL, then the above sql can return the correct answer.
So. anyone knows how to use the SDO_ANYINTERACT operator under the spatial reference WGS84??

Hi,
Your geodetic polygon is too big ( >= half of the earth surface), as a result, the result might not be correct.
This is documented in Oracle Spatial manual (11.2).
6.2.5 Other Considerations and Requirements with Geodetic Data
The following size limits apply with geodetic data:
No polygon element can have an area larger than or equal to one-half the surface of the Earth. Moreover, if the result of a union of two polygons is greater than one-half the surface of the Earth, the operation will not produce a correct result. For example, if A union B results in a polygon that is greater than one-half of the area of the Earth, the operations A difference B, A intersection B, and A XOR B are not supported, and only a relate operation with the ANYINTERACT mask is supported between those two polygons.
In a line, the distance between two adjacent coordinates cannot be greater than or equal to one-half the perimeter (a great circle) of the Earth.
If you need to work with larger elements, first break these elements into multiple smaller elements and work with them. For example, you cannot create a geometry representing the entire ocean surface of the Earth; however, you can create multiple geometries, each representing part of the overall ocean surface. To work with a line string that is greater than or equal to one-half the perimeter of the Earth, you can add one or more intermediate points on the line so that all adjacent coordinates are less than one-half the perimeter of the Earth.
You might have to break the polygon into smaller ones.
For projected coordinate systems, there is no such limitation.

How to pass a result of SQL query to shell script variable

Hi all,
I am trying to pass the result of a simple SQL query that only returns a single row into the shell script variable ( This particular SQL is being executed from inside the same shell script).
I want to use this value of the variable again in the same shell scirpt by opening another SQL plus session.
I just want to have some values before hand so that I dont have to do multiple joins in the actual SQL to process data.

Here an example :

Creating JTree with results from SQL Query

I have the following source in SQLJ:
String temp=null;
iter1 it1;
iter2 it2;
#sql it1={select id,fdn,level from groups connect by prior fdn=parent_fdn start with fdn='/' };
while(it1.next())
System.out.println(it1.id()); // Display Parent
temp=it1.fdn();
#sql it2= {select clli from nes where parent_fdn=:temp order by clli };
while(it2.next())
System.out.println(it2.clli());//Display Child of above Parent if any
My problem is to construct a Tree GUI using JTree from the above
code with the same hierarchy of parent-child relationship.
I have tried every possible solution using Vectors,Hashtables,String Arrays etc but have not come up with a successful solution so far
IF ANYONE HAS A SOLUTION PLEASE HELP ME WITH AN EXAMPLE.
Thank You

sharathkv,
Your issue seems to be in figuring out an algorithm to convert row-based SQL resultsets to a hierarchical data structure suitable for display in a tree.
Run the jython (www.jython.org) app below: it simulates doing just that. jython is indentation-sensitive, so you'll need to exercise care when copying. If copy-paste to a text editor doesn't work, copy-paste to a HTML-aware editor (even Outlook Express, if on Windows), then copy from there and paste in a text editor.

Returning 25th to 40th result of SQL query, do I use a cursor?

I have a complex SQL query that returns ALL the results I am looking for. I would to be able to only return the Nth to Nth result, like just the 50th to 70th record counts (assuming there is a sort by in the statement so it always returns in the same order.)
I thought of using a cursor and checking %ROWCOUNT and only returning the proper rows, but that seemed like it would be inefficient. I could do the same on my front end (PHP 4.0.6) relatively easily, but that would be a really inefficient way to retrieve 20 records from a query with 1000+ records returned.

Thanks, the links were helpful.
Since rowcount ignores my order by clause, I have attempted to find ways to overcome this. I have tried using the rowcount method by recreating my tables as index-orginized with an index on the column that I need to be ordered by. As a result of this, I have come accross two problems.
1. then index does not seem to update the order when I update the column. The column being indexed is a date type. The values added are usually sysdate, so although new elements are added properly, updating old ones does not change their index position.
2. I really need to access the items from most recent to oldest, thus desc. Since I am returning by rowcount, this makes it difficult. The following SQL is the best I can come up with and requires the output to be looped in reverse for display in the correct order:
select postid, subject, to_char(lastmod, 'Month FMDD, YYYY HH')||':'||to_char(lastmod, 'MIam'), name from (select t.postid, t.subject, t.lastmod, r.name, rownum ro from forumtopic t, forumrooms r where t.roomid = '1000668' and t.roomid = r.roomid and r.useraccess = '1') where ro between ((select count(*) from forumtopic subt where subt.roomid = '1000668')-40) and ((select count(*) from forumtopic subt where subt.roomid = '1000668')-25);

The code above has unblanaced parentheses. If you are getting anything other than an error message, then I don't believe you are really running what you posted.
Whenever you have a problem, post a complete test script that people can use to recreate the problem and test their ideas.
Please do that. Post CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements to crate the sample data, the code you used to create the carachr2_ntt type and the function, and your best attempt at a query (formatted). Simplify as much as possible. For example, do you really need 3 tables to illustrate the problem? For purposes of asking a question on this forum, can't you pretend you have just one table, with 2 columns?
I suspect the problem has to do with the user-defined type and function, which you didn't post. I can't even see how you called the function in your query. Without the information I mentioned above, there's not much I can do to help you.

Checking of SQL Query Result

Hi All,
How can i view result of SQL query in SAP-ABAP. Actually I want to see result of following query :
select * from ZMSTKCALC where werks_d <> werks_main.
I am new to SAP territory.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi Yogesh,
Welcome to the SDN world!!!
You have to use WRITE statement to see the result of the SQL query.
The result of the SQL query need to be stored in a work area.
For example:
data: T_ZMSTKCALC LIKE ZMSTKCALC occurs 0 with header line.
select * from ZMSTKCALC into table T_ZMSTKCALC where werks <> werks_main.
loop at T_ZMSTKCALC.
write:/ T_ZMSTKCALC-FIELD1,
T_ZMSTKCALC-FIELD2.
endloop.
Thanks

Want a SQL query

Hi All
This is mu use case
1. I have a table called Trades which stores Trades from different clients
2. In Trade Table I have a field called 'TRADE_FEE_REF' which store all the fees for a trade as a reference
3. In table 'TRADE_FEE_DETAILS' it stores the fees related to a perticular trade
4. Trades and TRADE_FEE_DETAILS tables have a foriegn key.
5. Now I want to display the following result for user.
I want a single row for Trades which includes Fee details as columns in that selection
ex: This is a Row from Trade table
Date, quantity, Price, Free_ref_no
1/1/2011, 2000, 12.45 , 1
This is the records from TRADE_FEE_DETAILS for the perticular trade above
Fee_Ref, Fee_type,Fee_amount

You can use PIVOT function to convert rows to columns
with trade as
    select to_DATE('1-JAN-2011','DD-MON-YYYY') col_date, 2000 quantity, 12.45 Price, 1 Free_ref_no from dual
trade_fee_details as
    select 1 Fee_Ref, 'BR' Fee_type, 200 Fee_amount from dual union all
    select 1, 'ST', 300 from dual union all
    select 1, 'STT', 100 from dual
SELECT
    td.col_date,
    td.quantity,
    td.price,
    tf.BR,
    tf.ST,
    tf.STT
FROM
    trade td,
        SELECT
        FROM
                SELECT
                FROM
                    trade_fee_details
            PIVOT (SUM(Fee_amount) FOR Fee_type IN ( 'BR' AS BR,'ST' AS ST,'STT' AS STT ))
    ) tf
WHERE
    td.Free_ref_no = tf.fee_ref;
COL_DATE                  QUANTITY               PRICE                  BR                     ST                     STT
01-JAN-11 00:00:00        2000                   12.45                  200                    300                    100

Need SQL query to get the result.

Simple query returns wrong results in Sql 2012

On my Windows 8 box running Sql 2012 11.0.3128, this query returns an IncludeCount of 0 and an ExcludeCount of 1.
On my Windows 7 box running Sql 2008 10.50.2550 this query returns an IncludeCount of 3 and an ExcludeCount of 1, which is correct.
In short, it runs properly on these versions of OS and Sql's:
Windows 2008 R2 + Sql 10.50.2550
Windows 2008 R2 + Sql 10.50.4000
Windows 2012 SP1 + Sql 11.0.3000
Windows 7 + Sql 11.0.2100
And gives incorrect results on these OS's and Sql's (so far, tested):
Windows 8 Enterprise + Sql 11.0.3128
Windows 2008 R2 + Sql 10.50.2550
I wondered if anyone else can reproduce this? I can't figure out the magic combination of OS and SQL version this breaks on.
In all scenarios, the resulting @filters table is populated correctly, and the [Include] column is properly set to a 1 or a 0, so why aren't the other variables being properly set?
If I change the [ID] column to NONCLUSTERED, it works fine, too. It doesn't matter if @filters is a TVP or a temp table or an actual table, same (incorrect) results in each case.
DECLARE @filters TABLE([ID] bigint PRIMARY KEY, [Include] bit)
DECLARE @excludecount int = 0
DECLARE @includecount int = 0
DECLARE @id bigint
INSERT INTO @filters ([ID])
VALUES (1), (3), (4), (-7)
UPDATE @filters SET
    @id = [ID],
    @includecount = @includecount + (CASE WHEN @id > 0 THEN 1 ELSE 0 END),
    @excludecount = @excludecount + (CASE WHEN @id < 0 THEN 1 ELSE 0 END),
    [Include] = CASE WHEN @id > 0 THEN 1 ELSE 0 END,
    [ID] = ABS(@id)
SELECT @includecount as IncludeCount, @excludecount as ExcludeCount
SELECT * FROM @filters

What part is undocumented?
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms177523.aspx
The above link states I can update variables inside an UPDATE statement ...
But it does not say what the correct result of what you are trying to would be. Variable assignment in UPDATE only makes sense if the UPDATE hits one row. If the UPDATE matches several rows, which value you the variable is set to is not defined.
It gets even more complicated when you have the variable on both sides of the expression. But I'd say that the only two values that makes as the final value of @includecount 0. An UPDATE statement, like other DML statements in SQL, is logically defined
as all-at-once. There are no intermediate results. Therefore the only possible values are the initial value of @includecount plus the value of the CASE statement, which always should returns 0, since @id is NULL when the UPDATE statement starts to execute.
I'm afraid that what you have is nonsense from a language perspective, and the result is undefined. Whenever you get different results from a query depending on whether you have certain indexes in place, you know that the query is indeterministic. There
are certainly part of SQL that are indeterministic, for instance ORDER BY on a non-unique columns. But in this particular case you have also wandered out into the land that is also undefined.
I'm not sure what you are trying to achieve, but I can only advice you to go back to the drawing board.

SQL Server 2014 - Columnstore Incorrect Results

Hello,
we are running into a problem with SQL Server 2014 and the columnstore index. We have a partitioned table with about 300 Million records in it. With SQL Server 2012 this has been in use without problems.
Since we upgraded to SQL Server 2014, the exact same queries on exactly the same data return incorrect results. We can only bypass the problem by either dropping the CS Index or adding a maxdop = 1 query hint.
I thought this was an old bug in SQL Server 2012? We have not installed the CU Pack 4 for SQL Server 2014, yet but will it solve the problem (assuming others have faced the same problem)
We are running: Microsoft SQL Server 2014 Enterprise Edition - 12.0.2000.8 (X64) on a 2x6Core Machine
Thanks in advance!

SQL Server 2012 only featured non-clustered columnstore indexes which were separate structures. Have you changed to a clustered columnstore (cs) index in SQL Server 2014? (ie dropped your non-clustered cs, created a cs)
There are a number of fixes that reference columnstore indexes in the current CUs (
CU1,
CU2, CU3,
CU4 ), but none which sound exactly like your problem.
This sounds similar and is fixed in CU1. You should review the CU documents yourself to see if any of them mention a similar problem and then consider applying the CU. You might also try applying them to a test environment, or a temporary Azure
VM for example to see if one of them solves your problem.
If you can create a reliable "repro" of the problem, consider raising a
connect item which is a Microsoft bug report.

How can I show all the results returned by a sql query?

Hi guys,
I need your help.
Let's say I have one table: TableA. Fields of TableA are aleg, anon, apes. The following sentence can return, in general, several rows: select anon from TableA where aleg = somevalue. I'd like to show the result of column anon but no luck. If I try to show the results in a TextArea and the origin is an sql query only shows the first row value. I tried Show as: show as text (based in PLSQL) and coding an anonymous plsql block as
DECLARE
v_anon TableA.anon%TYPE;
CURSOR v_cur IS
select anon from TableA where aleg = somevalue;
BEGIN
OPEN v_cur;
LOOP
FETCH v_cur INTO v_anon;
EXIT WHEN v_cur%NOTFOUND;
:FIELD_IN_FORM := v_anon;
END LOOP;
CLOSE v_cur;
END;
but in this case it's not shown any result.
So the first question is what kind of field should I use to show the result. And the second one is what can I do to being able to show all the results returned by the query (provided that is more than one single row).
regards

Hi Denes,
Just starting with apex. I think I know how to show the results in a report region. I've simplified the posted question.
A more detailed question would be: Suppose you have a region where you have put several text areas to accommodate the result of a multi-column query (lets say for TableA) that only returns one row, each column value returned put in a different text area. Also you want to show the values of other fields in TableB that depends on some value just retrieved from TableA and that you want all values retrieved (from TableA and the linked TableB) to be show in the same region. Is that possible? If yes, how?
Thank you in advance
