Inserting Records In A Trigger

Greetings,
I have a table which has a trigger that calls a stored procedure
to insert additional records into the same table. One trigger
is set after each row for insert/update/delete . The before
trigger calls another proc to populate a global pl/sql table for
the insert in the after trigger. All is okay except for the
insert of the additional record. The original record which
invoked the trigger sequence is sucessfully created, but the
addition record that the triggers create does not.
I Encounter an error on the insert withing a proc called by the
after trigger:
-4091: ORA-04091: table SPINTEK.ST_LGEN_RELATION is mutating,
trigger/function may not see it.
How can I create a record in a table via an after trigger while
another record is also being inserted?
Cheers and Happy Holidays.

You can't.
Just think about it for a minute - if you have a trigger that
fires after an INSERT, and that trigger attempts to perform
another INSERT on the same table, then when what would prevent
an infinite cascade of INSERTs from occurring?
That's why you can't perform DML on a table in (or from) a
trigger on the same table.

Retrieving latest updated or inserted records without using a trigger

I have to retrieve the latest updated/inserted records from a set of database tables. Say, if 'n' sets of different records have been updated or inserted into one or more different database tables then all the 'n' records of data should be retrieved using a java code without using a trigger.

helpmeplz wrote:
Thanks for your reply.
But I don't know when or from where or what kind of data gets inserted/updated into the tables. I need a listener or a component which can handle events occured on the particular set of database tables, and get the event data. the java code should get the updated/inserted rows that have been inserted into a set of database tables by a third party.
Please lemme know how I can do this.Realistically you can't.
If and only if the tables have a modification timestamp then you could use that. Every table would need it.
Other than that the only othe possibility would require that you keep an entire copy of each table in the memory, poll at a set interval and then do an entire comparison for each table. For very small data volumes (on the target tables) that is practical. For larger volumes it isn't.

How to use array list with fixed values to insert record in trigger

I have a list of number 1,30,40,45,60 . These numbers are not being changed so I don't need to keep in a table. So have to create a after insert trigger for
As
Begin
@list = 1,30,40,45,60 // Array value
for i=1 to @list.count
Insert into mappingtable(arrayvalue,itemcode) values (list[i],Inserted.Itemcode)
Next
End
Please can you help with a code
Regards
Pol

Be careful what you assume - rarely are lists of values like this truly static. One thing to keep in mind that arrays in sql server are tables. So, one example is:
set nocount on;
/* represents the virtual inserted table in your trigger */
declare @inserted table (itemcode char(4));
insert @inserted (itemcode) values ('ABCD'), ('JJKL');
select * from @inserted;
select * from @inserted cross join (values (1), (30), (40), (45), (60)) as arrayx(value);

How can i display recent update/delete/insert records in form

Hai !!!!
i am new for forms,.......any body tell me, how can i display recent no of records updated or no of records deleted or no of records are inserted in a form. these records count are display in display items....give me detail explination......
Subbu.....

the easiest way is copy and paste the oracle-forms example from the OU.
You need form-level-trigger ON-ERROR + ON-MESSAGE, POST-INSERT, POST-UPDATE, POST-DELETE, three global variables and a procedure:
ON-ERROR
handle_message( error_code, 'ERROR: ' || ERROR_TYPE || '-' || TO_CHAR(ERROR_CODE) ||': '|| ERROR_TEXT );
ON-MESSAGE
handle_message( message_code, MESSAGE_TYPE || '-' || TO_CHAR(MESSAGE_CODE) || ': ' || MESSAGE_TEXT );
PROCEDURE handle_message( message_number IN NUMBER, message_line IN VARCHAR2 ) IS
BEGIN
    IF message_number IN ( 40400, 40406, 40407 )
    THEN
      DEFAULT_VALUE( '0', 'GLOBAL.insert' );
      DEFAULT_VALUE( '0', 'GLOBAL.update' );
      DEFAULT_VALUE( '0', 'GLOBAL.delete' );
      MESSAGE('Save Ok: ' ||
        :GLOBAL.insert || ' records inserted, ' ||
       :GLOBAL.update || ' records updated, ' ||
       :GLOBAL.delete || ' records deleted !!!' );
      ERASE('GLOBAL.insert');
      ERASE('GLOBAL.update');
      ERASE('GLOBAL.delete');
    ELSE
         MESSAGE(message_line );
          END IF;
END;
POST-INSERT
DEFAULT_VALUE('0', 'GLOBAL.insert');
:GLOBAL.insert := TO_CHAR( TO_NUMBER( :GLOBAL.insert ) + 1 );
POST-UPDATE
DEFAULT_VALUE('0', 'GLOBAL.update');
:GLOBAL.update := TO_CHAR( TO_NUMBER( :GLOBAL.update ) + 1 );
POST-DELETE
DEFAULT_VALUE('0', 'GLOBAL.delete');
:GLOBAL.delete := TO_CHAR( TO_NUMBER( :GLOBAL.delete ) + 1 );try it

Unable to insert record in table

Hi,
I want to insert record in database table, but when I execute insert command(at When List changed trigger) as select from query and issue commit, the form trying to insert record from datablock which is obviously having empty items, how can I commit at database level not at form level.
*******************Below the SQL Statement issued by Form******************
INSERT INTO BILL_OF_MATERIALS_TABLE(PROJECTNO,GROUP_,ITEM,STATUS,QUANTITY,UNIT_PRICE,REASON_FOR_CHANGE,REMARKS,AWARD_COPY,LOCKED,VO_COPY) VALUES (:1,:2,:3,:4,:5,:6,:7,EMPTY_CLOB(),:9,:10,:11) RETURNING ROWID,PROJECTNO,GROUP_,ITEM,STATUS,QUANTITY,UNIT_PRICE,REASON_FOR_CHANGE,REMARKS,AWARD_COPY,LOCKED,VO_COPY INTO :12,:13,:14,:15,:16,:17,:18,:19,:20,:21,:22,:23
***************Error Raised by Form********
ORA-01400: cannot insert NULL into ("CAPEX"."BILL_OF_MATERIALS_TABLE"."ITEM")

Remember that when you write "commit;" within your forms code then Forms interprets it as a commit_form statement. That's why the form-level commit is launched as you mentionned.
So if you want to make a database commit then I think that you should create a stored procedure which makes the insert , and you call this stored procedure within your forms code.
Try it.

ORA-03113 error occurs when trying to insert record using procedure

I have a Database Block whose DML Data Target Type is Procedure. I have given the Insert Procedure Name, Insert Procedure Arguments and Insert Procedure ResultSet Columns. The procedure which is used to insert record into the table, resides in the database. The procedure for insert takes Table of records as argument. I am getting FRM-40735: INSERT-PROCEDURE trigger raised unhandled exception ORA-03113).
This exception does not occur if the Procedure is place under Program Units. But, I want the procedure to be under Database Block. I am working on Oracle Forms 6i.
Please help me out in resolving this.

Hello,
I think you should call the support for this kind of error.

Inserting records into a table with all caps

Hello
I have a procedure that inserts records into a table. How do I ensure that the text values inserted are recorded all capital letters into the table?
Thanks.

You can use UPPER(..) function in your insert statement, so that values are converted to UPPER, before insert.
If you want to check at table level, you can achieve that by writting a before insert trigger and in that trigger check
IF UPPER(:new.<col>) != :new.<col> THEN
RAISE_APPLICATION_ERROR(-20101,'Error: Not all values are in upper case')
END IF;

Inserting Record In same table through triggers.

Hi,
I've a table cus_mst ( cus_div_cd vachar2(1), cus_cd varchar2(5), cus_nm varchar2(100) )
Records are inserted in this table through forms ...
We need to automatically insert a record with a diff div_cd for any record inserted in the table .
If div_cd 'I' is entered automatically a record with div cd 'S' with other coulmns having same values should get inserted .
In case div_cd is 'S' then record with div_cd 'I' should get created.
Eg : If in insert ( 'S', 'A0001', 'ABC COmpany' ); another record with values ( 'I', 'A0001', 'ABC Comapny' ) gets created;
One way to do is to insert records in a view ( on the table ) and use instead of trigger to insert the corresponding record. But that is not possible as development team has to change form and use view instead of table.
Have tried doing it by populating a collection in-each-row trigger and then using statment level trigger to insert from the collection. But this leads to recursive error.
Would be great to get more insights into this..
thanks
cheers

Oracle forms error frm-40508: unable to insert record

Hi Everyone,
I have been having this problem for 2 weeks and I realize that I spent alot of time I couldn't get to fix the problem so I need your help.
Here is my situation. First, I installed Oracle 10g in my laptop with Oracle forms10g and Oracle forms904i. I had oracle_home folder as the top level structure then I have inside oracle folder, Oracle10g in it own folder, Oracle9i release2 in it own folder. then I created the user account "student" using the system/manager account finally I granted privilleges as follow:
GRANT ALL PRIVILLEGES
TO student
WITH ADMIN OPTION;
this was working perfecty I didn't need to grant objects privilleges such as
GRANT INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE
ON customers
TO student;
Then I created a form Application prototype and it works well I could Insert, Update and Delete but now I am creating an e-commerce application prototype I created an new account using a system/manager account as I did previously and grant all privilleges. When I try to grant object privileges the message that I receive says ORA-01919 : role 'INSERT' doesn't exist
When I run the application I am unable to insert the record through forms I get message frm-40508 Orcle error: unable to insert record.
I deinstall the Oracle and clean my laptop and did a clean installation using only Oracle Server10g and Oracle Developer10g I am getting the same message frm-40508.
Can someone please help me on this. the insert command that I am running is a simple one such as
INSERT INTO customers
VALUES( block_name.field_name, ....);
COMMIT;

Delete inserted record

I bulid trigger in tabel and check condition, if for example check_statment = X i need to delete inserted record (that mead not insert record) and when check_statment = Y then insert record in table, i try to write delete statment and rollback but there is error appear that the current record are reserved.
How i can solve it.

1. Triggers cannot Issues ROLLBACK, SAVEPOINT, COMMIT statements.
2. I guess you are trying to avoid duplicate records, Create a unique index on the key(col1,col2) which you want to prevent duplicates on.
3. Or you can Add a column Flag Chr(1) to your table. While inserting you allow the records to get inserted, but based on your condition change the Flag to 'D' - deleted , 'A' -active. Build a View which the user uses for application filtering out the 'D'eleted records.
Does this look like what you are trying to do !

Insert record AND post form

Hi,
I'm sure this is a common problem, I could not find anything
relating to it in search here so...
I have a form, which I insert data into database, fine.
I then want to post the same form to paypal payment page.
I've got paypal set-up fine with hidden fields in the form
etc. However, how can I make the insert into database and then post
the form to paypal ? should I use onClick event to trigger insert
and action to post to paypal ?
using asp vb
Any advise appreciated.

It'd be a 2 page process. On page 1, you submit the form and
insert record
into database. Then redirect to page 2. On page 2, you'd
submit the form on
load and post it to paypal.

Plus sign or insert record button on toolbar

Hi there,
What trigger fires when insert record button or plus sign from toolbar is clicked?
Thanks

Thanks for answering my question.
Now I created a KEY-CREREC trigger with code
1. I have a procedure that enables some fields and go_item('block.item1')
2. create_record;
There are 2 undesirable things that are occuring
1. user queries records, clicks on plus sign, the cursor does not go to the 1st field in the block even though i say go_item(block.item1)
2. to exit without saving the record, i have to click on remove record and then exit. is there a way of exiting out of the form without clciking on remove record button
Thanks a lot

hi,
I know there are two modes in oracle:
automatic and manual; for manual I mastery but the alternative ideas I just on consultation (using execute_query) but for the update I have not ideas ...
for the button, it is that there must be a trigger (when-button-pressed)? If yes, what it will contain code in pl / sql?

Insert record using stored procedure

Dear all,
I want to insert record using stored procedure in form6i,
any help or suggestion will be appreciated.
regards
Kashif Ali

Kashif,
Could you please explain what you are trying to accomplish? Inserting records into a table from Forms is as simple as executing an INSERT statement in a Forms trigger or as complicated as overriding the Forms default INSERT functionality by defining your own On-Insert trigger. Your requirements will dictate where and how you do your INSERT.
Craig...
