Firstly, I'm assuming that your database is running in a character set that supports Unicode text. If it's not, forget it. You ain't gonna put a square peg in a round hole. Check your NLS settings to confirm what language your DB is running in.
Fortunately for you, java also natively supports unicode, which means that you shouldn't have any problems. Providing, that is, that you use unicode character sets throughout your app and don't use any Reader classes that use a binary or latin charset.
Where is the data that you want to enter coming from? Keyboard? File? Web? If it is the web you will also need to ensure that the web side of your app is set to Unicode encoding.
Once you have checked that everything runs in unicode mode, you should be able to write unicode data straight to the database, without any other worries. If you need to manually enter unicode characters, you can do it using the unicode escape character ie "\u0000".
If you come across any other specific problems, post them here and we can try to resolve them - answering vauge generic qs such as this isn't easy.
If you want to be very sure about the data you are putting into the DB, you could always use RAW or BLOB datatypes in preference to VARCHAR(2) and CLOB datatypes, however you would then have to do all the charset conversion yourself.

Insert data into oracle table from XML file

I need to insert data into oracle table from XML file
If anybody handled this type of scenario, Please let me know how to insert data into oracle table from XML file
Thanks in advance

The XML DB forum provides the best support for XML topics related to Oracle.
Here's the FAQ on that forum:

ADF Mobile - insert data into oracle db from oracle adf mobile application

Hi,
I have to insert data from mobile into oracle database 11g(not in local sqlite database), can somebody tell me how to do it?
Thanks,
Anshul

Hi, Anshul, one common way is to expose DB data as ADF BC, and then add a service interface on top of ADF BC. This would allow the ADF Mobile app to access server DB through ADF BC. There may be other mechanisms to access server-side DB - I think APEX also expose some REST interface to Oracle DB as well. Another option is to use TopLink - TopLink can also expose some REST services.
Thanks,

How to insert data into Oracle db from MySQL db through PHP?

Hi,
I want to insert my MySQL data into Oracle database through PHP.
I can access Mysql database using mysql_conect() & Oracle database using oci_connect() through PHP.
Now How can I insert my data which is in MySQL into Oracle table. Both table structure are exactly same.
So I can use
insert into Oracle_Table(Oracle_columns....) values(Select * from MySQL_Table);
But again problem is I can't open both connections at the same time.
So has anyone done this before or anyone having any other idea..
Plz guide me...

You can do it if you setup a ODBC Gateway between MYSQL and Oracle DB. Then you can directly read from MySQL table using DB links and insert into Oracle table in one single SQL Statement.
Otherwise you need to fetch the data from MySQL Into variables in your PHP Program and then insert into Oracle after binding the variables to the insert statement for Oracle. Hope that is clear enough.

Inserting variables into oracle

how do you creat insert statements in oracle using variables? it won't accept this statement
stmt.executeUpdate("INSERT into T_LINKMANAGER(LMID,LMNAME,LMURL,LMFLAG,LMHITS,LMCATEG) VALUES(ct,aname,aurl,'false',0,acat)");
giving a column not allowed here error

If you're new to this, you should ESPECIALLY learn to use bind variables.
There are times when experts know not to use bind variables, but for 90-99% of all SQL, and 99.9% of all inserts, bind variables should be used.
Bind variables are what grownup developers use. They:
1) usually make your code run much faster in the long run, most definitely so on Oracle
2) make your code more secure; search the web for "SQL injection" to see why
3) often make your code easier to code; you don't have to worry about embedded single-quotes in your data breaking your SQL
Where I work, when we interview for new Java developers, if they claim any JDBC knowledge at all, we ask them to write a sample. If they don't use bind variables, they drastically reduce their chances of getting the job.
Back to your original query:
1) when asking help in a forum it's ALWAYS better to cut and paste the full original error message than to paraphrase it; there are often clues that get omitted in a paraphase
2) In your SQL:"INSERT into T_LINKMANAGER(LMID,LMNAME,LMURL,LMFLAG,LMHITS,LMCATEG) VALUES(ct,aname,aurl,'false',0,acat)"ct, aname, aurl, and acat are being interpreted as Oracle column names.
If those are supposed to be literal values, you must write them as 'ct', etc.
If those are Java String variables that you want to embed in your SQL, you need to do: "INSERT into T_LINKMANAGER(LMID,LMNAME,LMURL,LMFLAG,LMHITS,LMCATEG) VALUES('" +ct+"','" + aname + "','" ...If there's ever ANY chance that your Java variables will ever have a ' (single-quote) character in them, then before the SQL statement is built, you have to escape the embedded ' (convert ' to '' (single-quote single-quote) ). To avoid this common headache, use bind variables.
Actually, for heavily used code, building up a String with "+" is also bad; it generates excessive amounts of intermediate values that have to be garbage collected, thereby slowing your throughput. If you just have to use dynamically built SQL (you should use bind variables instead), then you should build the string in a StringBuffer and convert it to a String at execution.

Insert data into oracle database using a PHP form

I'm trying to enter data into my oracle database table using a php form. When I click submit no data is added. Could someone help me please. I'm new to php/oracle thing.
NOTE: I don't have any problem connecting to the database using php.
Here is the code I'm using:
<?php
// just print form asking for name if none was entered
if( !isset($query)) {
echo "<form action=\"$uri\" method=post>\n";
echo "<p>Enter Name: ";
echo "<input type=text size=100 maxlength=200 name=data value=\"$data\">\n";
echo "<br><input type=submit name=submit value=Submit>\n";
echo "</form>\n";
exit;
// insert client's name
$query = "INSERT INTO client (name) VALUES ($data)";
// connect to Oracle
$username = "xxxx";
$paswd = "yyyyyy";
$dbstring = "(DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)".
"(HOST=patriot.gmu.edu)(PORT=1521))".
"(CONNECT_DATA=(SID=COSC)))";
$db_conn = ocilogon($username, $paswd, $dbstring);
$stmt = OCIParse($db_conn, $query);
OCIExecute($stmt, OCI_DEFAULT);
OCIFreeStatement($stmt);

Thanks for your help. I will also appreciate a better was to do it.

Sorry I cannot format the code for easy reading!
The page is submitting to itself. See action = \"$uri\". I used the same logic to enter SELECT querries into the database. It pulls and displays data back on the webpage. The code I used for this is below. Compare it with the one above for inserting data into the table.

Insert data into oracle based on sql server data(here sql server acting as source to oracle and destination to oracle)

Source is Oralce. Destination is SQL Server.
Requirement - I have to fetch sql server server data (empid's) based emp table and send this as input data to oracle to fetch and empid's are common.
I cannot use merge or loopkup or for each as oracle have too many records.
For example - In MS SQL - i have empid=1,2..Only these records, I have to fetch from oracle source into sql server destination. For this, I have adopted the below approaches...The major problem I face, when i build a empid's as a string, it is taking only
4000 chars. My string lenght is 10000. How do I breakup this string lengh and send to data flow task till all broken strings length passed to DFT.
Approach-1
created two variables - oraquery string, empid string
step1 - ms sql database - created sql task - declare @empid varchar(max)
SELECT @empid=
Stuff((SELECT ',' + empid
        FROM
        (SELECT DISTINCT convert(varchar(10),empid ) empid FROM emp
         ) x
        For XML PATH ('')),1,1,'')
select @empid =    '(' + @empid + ')'
select @empid
resultset=singlerow
resultset=resultname=0; variablename=User::empid (empid is declared as string)
step2 - oracle database - created data flow task
created oledb source
I put this statemnt in oraquery expression - "select * from dept where dept in "
+ @[User::empid] + "
expression=true
[OLE DB Source [1]] Error: SSIS Error Code DTS_E_OLEDBERROR. An OLE DB error has occurred. Error code: 0x80040E14.
An OLE DB record is available. Source: "Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Oracle" Hresult: 0x80040E14 Description: "ORA-00936: missing expression".
Approach-2
created three variables - oraquery string, empid int, loop object--when I put int then it is automatically setting to 0
step1 - ms sql database - created sql task - SELECT DISTINCT convert(varchar(10),empid ) empid FROM emp
resultset=fullresult
resultset=resultname=0; variablename=User::loop
step2 - created a for each loop container
for loop editor - for each ado ennumerator
enumerator configuration - loop
variablemapping - variable=empid;index=0
step3 - oracle database - created data flow task (outside for each loop. If I put inside it is taking long time)
created oledb source
I put this statemnt in oraquery expression - "select * from dept where dept in "
+ @[User::empid] + "
expression=true
Data inserting in a destination table but empid=0.

Sorry didnt understand if your step3 is outside loop how
@[User::empid] will get values for the empids from User::loop. The iteration happens inside loop so you
need to have a logic to form the delimited list inside using a script task or something and concatenating everything and storing to variable @[User::empid]
. Then only it will have full value used to be used in step3 query

DB Adaptor and inserting dates into Oracle DB

Hi,
I'm using the Oracle DB Adaptor to poll a table in one instance (using logical delete) and to invoke a DB adaptor to insert/merge a row into a separate instance.
NOTE :both tables have different definitions.
I am using a BPEL transform to tfrm the data received from the poll/receive step.
I need to transform some date variables and the target date column CreatedTs is expecting to receive the date in the Oracle DD-MON-YYYY format (can't change the NLS_DATE_FORMAT value for the target).
I'm trying to use the provided xsl:formatDateTime function with various formats but can't get anything useful to work.
Any ideas ?

Hi there,
Please see the Bpel developer's guide at otn.oracle.com/bpel. There are two troubleshooting entries of interest:
dateTime Conversion Exceptions
and
Issues with Oracle DATE
Just search on these strings.
The xsl:formatDateTime function is for converting xs:dateTimes to strings. If you already have a value in proper ISO dateTime format do not try to convert it. The database adapter likes that format only.
If you are starting with a string like DD-MON-YYYY and have to convert it into a legal dateTime, then that is hard as functions like xsl:formatDateTime go the opposite way only, i.e. dateTime to string, not string to dateTime.
A few days we had a customer who needed to convert MM/DD/YYYY to a dateTime. I am copying the solution here.
Used the expression builder in the assign to build:
orcl:format-string('{0}-{1}-{2}T00:00:00', substring(bpws:getVariableData('Receive_1_receive_InputVariable','ReceiverDeptCollection','/ns2:ReceiverDeptCollection/ReceiverDept/receiverEmpCollection/ReceiverEmp/someDate'), 7, 4), substring(bpws:getVariableData('Receive_1_receive_InputVariable','ReceiverDeptCollection','/ns2:ReceiverDeptCollection/ReceiverDept/receiverEmpCollection/ReceiverEmp/someDate'), 4, 2), substring(bpws:getVariableData('Receive_1_receive_InputVariable','ReceiverDeptCollection','/ns2:ReceiverDeptCollection/ReceiverDept/receiverEmpCollection/ReceiverEmp/someDate'), 1, 2))
That worked in converting i.e. 01/05/2005 to 2005-01-05T00:00:00.
To convert DD-MON-YYYY that is tricky because you need to first convert DEC to 12, SEP to 09, and so on. I couldn't figure out how to do that but another on this forum may be able to help you out. If you are really stuck and you know the database accepts i.e DD-MON-YYYY, you could tell the adapter that the date field is a string, then it will simply pass the value as is which should work.
To do that please see chapter 20 of the bpel dev guide, and search for
Configuring Offline Database Tables
Use that to change the type to basic varchar2 in the BPEL designer so the dbadapter will think the column is a string and not convert it.
Thanks

Insert CLOB into oracle under weblogic

Situation: running my servlet under weblogic, want to insert more than 4000 characters into CLOB of oracle 8.1.7
Problem: cannot be done by using code which is able to do it under tomcat
i use this code in tomcat:
import java.sql.*;
import oracle.sql.CLOB;
import oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleResultSet;
con.setAutoCommit(false);
Statement stmt = con.createStatement();
rs = stmt.executeQuery("SELECT clob_field FROM table where rid=id FOR UPDATE");
rs.next();
CLOB clob = ((OracleResultSet)rs).getCLOB(1);
Writer writer = clob.getCharacterOutputStream();
writer.write(dataString);
writer.close()l
con.commit();
con.setAutoCommit(true);
stmt.close();
after that i know that i can't use API of oracle when i'm using weblogic (e.g. oracle.sql.CLOB)
and i find this code from other user:
import weblogic.jdbc.vendor.oracle.OracleThinClob;
import java.io.*;
import java.sql.*;
PreparedStatement stmt = con.prepareStatement ( "INSERT INTO database VALUES ( ?, EMPTY_CLOB() )" );
stmt.setInt ( 1, 1 );
// inserts a new entry with an empty clob object
stmt.executeUpdate ();
if ( stmt != null )
stmt.close();
// retrieves CLOB-Object
stmt = con.prepareStatement ( "SELECT clob_field FROM database WHERE id=?" );
stmt.setInt ( 1, 1 );
ResultSet rs = stmt.executeQuery ( );
if ( rs.next() )
Clob cl = rs.getClob(1);
Writer clobWriter = ((OracleThinClob)cl).getCharacterOutputStream();
// Open the sample file as a stream for insertion into the Clob column
File testFile = new File ( "file.txt" );
FileReader testReader = new FileReader ( testFile );
// buffer to hold data to being written to the clob.
char[] cBuffer = new char[((OracleThinClob)cl).getBufferSize()];
// Read data from file, write it to clob
int iRead = 0;
while( (iRead= testReader.read(cBuffer)) != -1 )
clobWriter.write( cBuffer, 0, iRead);
testReader.close();
clobWriter.close();
if ( rs != null )
rs.close();
if ( stmt != null )
stmt.close();
// update clob-data in database
stmt = con.prepareStatement ( "UPDATE database SET clob_field = ? WHERE id = ?" );
stmt.setClob ( 1, cl );
stmt.setInt ( 2, 1 );
stmt.executeUpdate();
it throws java.lang.ClassCastException: oracle.sql.CLOB
but i haven't imported or used any API from oracle.........
please help
thanks

hi,
unfortunatly, you can't do this with welbogic6.1 because it 'manage' itself oracle librairies (weblogic.jar),
here is the way i solved the pb for BLOB :
i replaced :
BLOB blob = ((OracleResultSet)rs).getBLOB(1);
by
weblogic.jdbc.rmi.SerialOracleBlob cast1 =(weblogic.jdbc.rmi.SerialOracleBlob)rs.getBlob("myBlob");
weblogic.jdbc.rmi.internal.OracleTBlobImpl cast2 =(weblogic.jdbc.rmi.internal.OracleTBlobImpl)cast1.getTheRealBlob();
BLOB myBlob = (oracle.sql.BLOB)cast2.getTheRealBlob();
it is the same for clob (i suppose ^_^)
hope this helps !
Badr.

Inserting dates into oracle

I'm trying to insert a date into a table...I'm not getting an error - but Oracle is not inserting a record.
string some_date = "10/27/2004";
In Oracle I'm converting the date string using the TO_DATE function, the column is a DATE datatype.
TO_DATE(p_some_date,'DD-MON-YYYY')
Any suggestions?

The format used to display or input a date has no bearing on the way it is stored. In Oracle a date is stored using 7 bytes as follows:
yy 1 - trunc(yy / 100) + 100
yy 2 - mod(yy, 100) + 100
mm 3 - simple month (1-12)
dd 4 - simple day (1-31)
hh 5 - hh + 1
mm 6 - mm + 1
ss 7 - ss + 1You can see how this format relates to a "displayed date" as follows:
SQL> connect /
Connected.
SQL> create table t
2 (
3 c date
4 );
Table created.
SQL> insert into t values (sysdate);
1 row created.
SQL> select to_char(c, 'DD-MON-YYYY HH24:MI:SS'), dump(c) from t;
TO_CHAR(C,'DD-MON-YY DUMP(C)
28-OCT-2004 19:40:45 Typ=12 Len=7: 120,104,10,28,20,41,46
1 row selected.However, you are telling Oracle that the format of the input date string is "DD-MON-YYYY" but it is not. The format of the input string is "MM/DD/YYYY". If you want to pass the string in that format just change your to_date to match that format (i.e. to_date(some_date, 'DD/MM/YYYY')

How to insert date into oracle database

Hi, there,
I want to insert date information to oracle database in a jsp page using JSTL. but always got wrong message:
javax.servlet.jsp.JspException:
INSERT INTO DATE_TEST
(date_default,date_short,date_medium)
values(?,?,?)
: Invalid column type
I don't know how to convert java date type to oracle date type or vice versa. the following is the source code(all the fields of DATE_DEFAULT,DATE_SHORT,DATE_MEDIUM are oracle date type. and even I want to insert d instead d1, I got the same wrong message)

Error trying to insert xml into Oracle table

Hi -
I am trying to (a)read a row from emp table and output the results in xml format
and (b) insert this row to another emp_new table (same structure as emp).
When I run it here is what I get:
OUTPUT IS:
<?xml verions='1.0'?>
<Employee>
<Emp num="1">
<EMPNO>7369</EMPNO>
<ENAME>Smith</ENAME>
<JOB>Clerk</JOB>
<MGR>7902</MGR>
<HIREDATE>12/7/1980</HIREDATE>
<SAL>800</SAL>
<DEPTNO>20</DEPTNO>
</Emp>
</Employee>
Exception in thread "main" oracle.xml.sql.OracleXMLSQLException:
No rows to modify -- the row enclosing tag is missing. Specify
the correct row enclosing tag.
etc...
The row enclosing tag is given by setRowTag("Emp").
What's wrong here? Any ideas?
PS: To Ambrose Padilla: Your response was helpful. Thank you.
Program
import java.sql.*;
import oracle.xml.sql.query.*;
import oracle.jdbc.driver.*;
import oracle.xml.sql.dml.*;
class testXML
public static void main(String[] args) throws SQLException
DriverManager.registerDriver(new oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver());
//initialize a JDBC connection
Connecton conn = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:oracle:thin:mytest:1521:acme", "scott", "tiger");
//initialize the OracleXMLQuery
OracleXMLQuery qry =
new OracleXMLQuery(conn,"select * from emp where rownum < 2");
     // set the document name
     qry.setRowsetTag("Employee");
     // set the row element name
     qry.setRowTag("Emp");
     // get the XML result
     String xmlString = qry.getXMLString();
     // print result
     System.out.println(" OUPUT IS:\n"+xmlString);
     OracleXMLSave sav = new OracleXMLSave(conn,"emp_new");
     sav.insertXML(xmlString);
     sav.close();
}

Try inserting
sav.setRowTag("emp");
before calling insertXML.

Unable to insert rows into ORACLE database using ABAP code

Hai,
I am facing problem while creating a table in Oracle database with 15 attributes in a table. To create a table I am using the classes:
                  cl_sql_connection -
> to create the connection
                  cl_sql_statement -
> to execute the query
This I used by reffering the SAP program ADBC_DEMO. Without any trouble I am able to create a Table with 6 attributes by following the same procedure in ABCD_DEMO program but the same is not working for the table with 15 attributes .
Please help me.
