Invalid number in 11g

Hi,
I have the code:
select n.cod
                        from numere_apel n
                         where n.stare = 'L'
                         and n.cod_prefix = '0254'
                        and LENGTH(TRIM(TRANSLATE(n.cod, ' +-.0123456789', ' '))) is null -- the condition to be numeric (n.cod can contain values that are not numeric)
                          and to_number(n.cod) > to_number('268980')this gives me invalid number at the last line (at the first to_number). However this WORKS in 9i without error, so in 11g what could be the cause?
I'm sure that the records from n.cod are just numbers (in 9i there are 3 records returned and they are NUMBERS.
It's very strange that in 9i works..
Thanks

it's weird that does not work... strange
ThanksAs michaels has told you, Oracle is free to evaluate the predicates in the where clause in the order it deems most efficient.
Your query
and LENGTH(TRIM(TRANSLATE(n.cod, ' +-.0123456789', ' '))) is null -- the condition to be numeric (n.cod can contain values that are not numeric)
and to_number(n.cod) > to_number('268980')is an application bug. You got lucky in previous versions as the predicate
and LENGTH(TRIM(TRANSLATE(n.cod, ' +-.0123456789', ' '))) is null -- the condition to be numeric (n.cod can contain values that are not numeric)Was being applied before
and to_number(n.cod) > to_number('268980')As i say though, this is a bug in YOUR sql, not in Oracle. What you would / should have coded is
select <columns>
from
   select <columns>
   from numere_apel n
   where n.stare = 'L'
   and n.cod_prefix = '0254'
   and LENGTH(TRIM(TRANSLATE(n.cod, ' +-.0123456789', ' '))) is null -- the condition to be numeric (n.cod can contain values that are not numeric)
where to_number(n.cod) > to_number('268980')to ensure all the non-numeric data you need to TO_NUMBER was removed before you attempted to TO_NUMBER it.

ORA-01722: invalid number - Error during implicit conversion (10g vls 11g)

I am facing oracle error for few SELECT queries in 11g which were working fine in 10g environment.
Oracle Version:
10g - 10.2.0.5.0
11g - 11.2.0.3.0
We are storing numeric values under CHAR or VARCHAR2 column in few tables. This is known design issue & it can't be changed for now.
I know this will work fine until all the data is numeric in those columns for respective table. Because by some reason, if any row got character value for that column then implicit string to number conversion will fail and this error can occur. But I have verified that there is no data issue.
But I can see difference in the execution plan! But not able to recognize the reason issue.
Any other pointers on why the queries are failing in 11g would be of great help..
Example SQL:
Note that table structure and data is same in both the environments.

The problem doesn't appear to be related to the Oracle version, at least not directly. If your query plan does the string to number conversion before eliminating the rows that have non-numeric data, you'll get an error. If the query plan eliminates the rows that have non-numeric data before doing the conversion, the query will succeed. It is entirely possible that you'd get the "bad" plan in 10g or the "good" plan in 11g.
You can capture the query plans from your 10g database and move them over to the 11g database. Oracle has a nice white paper on upgrading from 10g to 11g that walks you through that process.
Of course, you really don't want to be dependent on the optimizer picking the "right" plan, you really want to fix the underlying data model issue.

Sdo_util error code ORA-01722: invalid number in Oracle 11g R2

Dear every one,
Greetings.
Hi. As mentioned in the title, I met a strange problem when I was trying to extrude the 2D objects into 3D. The error code says ORA-01722: invalid number. Then, to eliminate the possibility that the code would be wrong, I took the sample code from the ORACLE document about sdo_util.extrude
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E11882_01/appdev.112/e11830/sdo_util.htm#SPATL1230
the same error appeared. However, I tested the same code through the SQLDeveloper in Linux (where the 11g R2 is located) to perform the same thing in my other database in windows server 2008 where 11g R1 was installed. Works fine.
Is there any particular configuration I should do or I have done wrong. Any one knows, please help. Thanks.
Jun

Hi,-
Please use w/o 'FALSE' parameter for 11.2.0.1.0 release:
SELECT SDO_UTIL.EXTRUDE(
SDO_GEOMETRY(
2003,
null,
null,
SDO_ELEM_INFO_ARRAY(1,1003,1),
SDO_ORDINATE_ARRAY(5, 1,8,1,8,6,5,7,5,1)),
SDO_NUMBER_ARRAY(0,0,0,0,0),
SDO_NUMBER_ARRAY(5,10,10,5,5),
0.005) from dual;
In 11.1.0.7 release, you need to use 'FALSE' parameter:
SELECT SDO_UTIL.EXTRUDE(
SDO_GEOMETRY(
2003,
null,
null,
SDO_ELEM_INFO_ARRAY(1,1003,1),
SDO_ORDINATE_ARRAY(5, 1,8,1,8,6,5,7,5,1)),
SDO_NUMBER_ARRAY(0,0,0,0,0),
SDO_NUMBER_ARRAY(5,10,10,5,5),
'FALSE',
0.005) from dual;
We fixed this confusion for the next releases so that both interfaces can be used
and 'FALSE' parameter will be ignored.

Hi There,
I'm having trouble seeing anything spatial in your procedure. Since this forum is for "Discussions related to Oracle Spatial, Locator, GeoRaster, Topology, Network Data Model, GeoCoder, Router, Spatial Web Services and 3D Data Model. Recommended reading: Pro Oracle Spatial" you might have better luck asking your question on one of the other forums:

A line number for the error would help too.

ORA-01722: invalid number while using TO_CHAR function.

Hi All,
I was using this query from around past 1 year and everything was working fine.
select to_char ( '2012/12/23','YYYY/MM/DD') from dual;
how ever from monday onwards , this is returning me with the following error.

The NLS_DATE_FORMAT is DD-MON-RR in my oracle 11g version.
Please help me regarding this.

Your date is in literal & your intended format so no need to format it again.
select to_char ( '2012/12/23','YYYY/MM/DD') from dual;
same as
select '2012/12/23' from dual;I don't know your need so same code to work!!!
select to_char(to_date('2012/12/23','YYYY/MM/DD'),'DD/MM/YYYY') from dualsunnymoon wrote:
where vale for ? is coming as '2011/12/23' from java.
the whole application has to be changed and retested.
>
It it comes as a text convert it to date TO_DATE('2011/12/23','YYYY/MM/DD') to use in comparison operators like =, != , > , < etc. Comparison operators used taking date as literal will give you wrong result.
Better to do it right even it takes huge effort.

Invalid number error when using case when

I have table called NATIONAL_RARE_ECOSYSTEMS which has 1 column called TEST_COLUMN (data type: varchar2):
TEST_COLUMN
rare ecosystem
rare
0
0
(null)
(null)
what I want is a query which will add a column called NRE_SCORE which will give each row instance a score of 0 if it null.
If it is 0 then score should be 0.
If the row contains any text then score should be 1
I have written the query:
SELECT
(CASE WHEN test_column is null THEN 0
WHEN test_column = 0 THEN 0
WHEN test_column > 0 THEN 1
END) AS NRE_SCORE
FROM NATIONAL_RARE_ECOSYSTEMS;
I get the error message:
ORA-01722: invalid number
01722. 00000 - "invalid number"
I think this is because on the 2nd and 3rd line I'm trying to do arithmetic on a column which is varchar2 which I know I cant do.
How do I write a query which says: if the row contains text then give score of 1?
I'm using oracle 11g.

I'm using oracle 11g.Here's one way:
SELECT       CASE
           WHEN NVL (test_column, '0') = '0'
           THEN 0
           ELSE 1
       END          AS nre_score
,       ...          -- you must want other columns, too
FROM       national_rare_ecosystems
;Since you don't really care about the numeric value, don't use NUMBERs anywhere; stick with VARCHAR2s, such as '0'.
I hope this answers your question.
If not, post a little sample data (CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements, relevant columns only), and also post the results you want from that data.
Point out where the query above is getting the wrong results, and explain, using specific examples, how you get those results from the sample data in those palces.

Understanding NVL: INVALID NUMBER in NVL Function

Hi,
The below query is a part of a cursor which takes in p_po_number as input with datatype same as segment1 of po_headers_all (varchar2(20)). The columns event_system_id1 to event_system_id4 are varchar2(240). In most cases p_po_number will be null as the program is scheduled and the input parameter of p_po_number is not passed. In effect, for most cases, the below query will end like event_system_id1 = NVL(NULL,event_system_id1)
I am getting an error of INVALID NUMBER
SELECT TO_NUMBER (event_system_id1)
FROM c_fnd_intf_transact_q
WHERE event_system_id2 = :p_organization_code
AND event_system_id4 =
DECODE (:p_po_type,
:vgc_internal, 'XXX',
:vgc_standard
AND event_system_id1 =
NVL (p_po_number, event_system_id1)
I modified the query to
SELECT event_system_id1
FROM c_fnd_intf_transact_q
WHERE event_system_id2 = :p_organization_code
AND event_system_id4 =
DECODE (:p_po_type,
:vgc_internal, 'XXX',
:vgc_standard
AND event_system_id1 =
NVL (p_po_number, event_system_id1)
which still threw the same error thus ruling out the cause of the issue being that to_number leaving only the implicit conversions of NVL.
I further modified the query to
SELECT TO_NUMBER (event_system_id1)
FROM c_fnd_intf_transact_q
WHERE event_system_id2 = :p_organization_code
AND event_system_id4 =
DECODE (:p_po_type,
:vgc_internal, 'XXX',
:vgc_standard
AND p_po_number is not null
which gave me the desired result in a round about way.
What confuses me here is both p_po_number and event_system_id1 are of varchar2 type. Why am I getting the error of INVALID NUMBER here and why is NVL converting the second parameter NUMBER datatype when the first one is VARCHAR2 even though null.
I am working in Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition Release 11.2.0.2.0 - 64bit Production.
P.S: The column event_system_id1 is not restricted to store numbers alone. It also contains character values though I use it only for storing number as it is shared table.

Well, the expression
NVL (p_po_number, event_system_id1)
has NUMBER and VARCHAR2 elements, and you say "+P.S: The column event_system_id1 is not restricted to store numbers alone+" , and the documentation:
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E14072_01/server.112/e10592/functions117.htm
says:
+The arguments expr1 and expr2 can have any data type. If their data types are different, then Oracle Database implicitly converts one to the other. If they are cannot be converted implicitly, the database returns an error. The implicit conversion is implemented as follows:+
+•If expr1 is character data, then Oracle Database converts expr2 to the data type of expr1 before comparing them and returns VARCHAR2 in the character set of expr1.+
+•If expr1 is numeric, then Oracle determines which argument has the highest numeric precedence, implicitly converts the other argument to that data type, and returns that data type.+
Exactly what is it you don't understand?

"Invalid Number" error for no apparent reason

Hi.
We're transferring data from one table on one DB to a data warehouse on a separate DB. All Oracle 11g running on Windows Server 2003.
The columns all match data wise, and it's a simple select and insert.
However, we got an ORA-01722: invalid number error on one run. We checked all the data, which was fine (all 540,000 rows) and ran it again with no error this time.
I'd like to know if anyone knows why this would happen if there is no issue with the data validity. I'll take all guesses or known issues and check them against our systems. If anyone knows how I can get this to repeat I'd be grateful as it's all running fine now.
Cheers
Si

The data is transferred using a Java program. Select into an OracleResultSet() then read each row result into a prepared statement. Were using the batch send, I believe every 100 rows.
The source columns match the target columns for name and type, with two exceptions where the column name is slightly different but the column type still matches.
There are not triggers on either the source or target tables.
Cheers

Case When Statement and ORA:01722 Invalid number error

Hi folks, I have posted this under another heading as well under E-business suite so apologies if some you have already seen it but I would really appreciate some help on this one. Any suggestions are most welcome.
We are trying to put together a calculation that returns the number of days absent an individual has had in a given time period. We need to cater for those absences that started before the period and are closed during it, absence that start during the period and end after it, and those that open and close within it.
The period is always a rolling 6 months from sysdate.
This is the calc we have come up with so far which works for some people but we get the invalid number error if the absence includes a half day - so 0.5, 1.5,etc.

Hi,
It could be that this is because you are using SYSDATE which contains the time as a fraction rather than TRUNC(SYSDATE) which just contains the current time. It could be that your working_dates_between raises this error.
However, your formula is far more complicated than it needs to be.
Firstly, you want to look at the date window ADD_MONTHS(TRUNC(SYSDATE), -6) to TRUNC(SYSDATE). Then you want to look at the portion of the absence that falls in the date window. This is GREATEST(Absence Attendance.Actual Start Date, ADD_MONTHS(TRUNC(SYSDATE), -6)) to LEAST(NVL(Absence Attendance."Actual End Date",TRUNC(SYSDATE)), TRUNC(SYSDATE)). You may need to add 1 to the absence end date because this is the last day of their absence rather than the date they return. It depends how you calculate the days between the start and end
date of the absence. You can create calculations for the start and end date of the absences within the 6 months time window. Create calculation AbsenceStart as
GREATEST(Absence Attendance.Actual Start Date, ADD_MONTHS(TRUNC(SYSDATE), -6))
and AbsenceEnd as
LEAST(NVL(Absence Attendance."Actual End Date",TRUNC(SYSDATE)), TRUNC(SYSDATE))
Then you need to only pick up absence that a part of the absence in your 6 month date window. You can use a condition in the workbook or a condition in a case statement to do this. You then need to calculate the difference between these dates and SUM all the values.
SUM(CASE WHEN AbsenceEnd >= AbsenceStart THEN WORKING_DAYS_BETWEEN(AbsenceStart, AbsenceEnd) END)
That's it. Not so complicated after all.

Case When Statement and ORA:1722 Invalid number error

Sorry I posted this in the wrong forum - I have the answer now
Cheers
HELP!!!
We are trying to put together a calculation that returns the number of days absent an individual has had in a given time period. We need to cater for those absences that started before the period and are closed during it, absence that start during the period and end after it, and those that open and close within it.
The period is always a rolling 6 months from sysdate.
This is the calc we have come up with so far which works for some people but we get the invalid number error if the absence includes a half day - so 0.5, 1.5,etc.
This is probably over complicated but we are not Techie at all so are learning as we go! We are using the HRMS - Administration - Oracle Human Resources (Core) business area in 10G and the Absence Attendance and Person folders.

ORA - 01722: invalid number in Discoverer Desktop/4i

Hi,
We have a report that has a date range as parameter. When the report is run for a smaller date range (sometimes specifically 87 days...though this may be a coincidence), the report runs fine. Problem occurs when we want data for a larger period (like an year or 1/2 year), the report errors out with invalid number error. I've seen a lot of messages posted on this topic, but that's not of much help. Any help in this regard is totally appreciated.

Interactive Report and the mysterious invalid number

Hello,
I have an application that is ready, or so I thought, to be sent to a client to update an existing application. One page in the application has an interactive report that is based on a table in the parsing schema that is joined to the apex_collections view. The report works without issue in my dev environment as well as in the client's test environment. But when a colleague tested the updated app in a different test environment, the report errors out with an ORA-01722: invalid number error.
Needless to say I'm now hesitant about the update to production because I can't find the cause of the issue on my colleague's machine and would hate for this to happen in production. In trying to find the issue in on my colleague's machine, I first tried removing all of the columns (save the id) from the report to see if it was being generated there, no change. Then I started removing the joins and when the join to the apex_collections view was removed the error disappeared. The join was written as:
SELECT *
FROM table tbl
JOIN apex_collections col
   ON tbl.id = col.c001
WHERE col.collection_name = 'MY_COLLECTION';I know that the underlying tables for the apex_collections view store columns c001 .. c050 as VARCHAR2(4000) so I was relying on implicit data conversion to apply the join. Perhaps this is where the error is coming from but that would mean that "extra" rows are being returned as all of the c001 values returned in the session (from dev toolbar) are also valid numbers. As I said before, the problem is only occurring in 1 of 3 apex instances so I tested it in a 4th, and again, there was NO problem. I then realized that my query is potentially dangerous if c001 is used to hold something other than a number in the current session, which is NOT the case in any of the instances, but I tried updating the report to the following to see if it would help:
SELECT *
FROM table tbl
JOIN (
   SELECT TO_NUMBER(c001) AS c001
   FROM apex_collections col
   WHERE collection_name = 'MY_COLLECTION'
) apex_col
   ON apex_col.c001 = tbl.idThat query worked as expected in the dev environment and will be used as the query going forward. However, it failed to fix the problem in the "problem" instance. This seems to be a local issue but I'd like to know for sure. All of the systems are configured as follows:
1. Dev - Oracle 10g R2 XE - ApEx 3.1.2 - Works
2. Test1 - Oracle 10g R2 EE - ApEx 3.1.2 - Works
3. Test2 (colleague) - Oracle 10g R2 XE - ApEx 3.1.2 - Fails
4. Test3 (my localhost) - Oracle 10g R2 XE - ApEx 3.1.2 - Works
5. Prod - Oracle 10g R2 EE - ApEx 3.1.2 - ???
Any ideas?

Dan,
I'm always suspicious of problems that disappear without knowing why - usually they reappear the very moment that an end-user starts using the app :D
You didn't show how you are populating the collection in your original posting, so I'm not clear on exactly what the data would show. What I was thinking was, knowing that collections are all varchar2's, that something like TO_CHAR() had been used in the SQL statement that created the collection.
I don't think that trimming the data would have any effect. If the problem does happen again, I would suggest creating a report based on the collection (basically doing a data dump onto a page) and then see exactly what is in there. If any number contains a comma (or other characters such as currency symbols), then you have to use a number format string to get back to the actual raw number.

Invalid Number exception

Hi experts,
I have a very strange problem. I have a query to which I am binding a value. The datatype of the value is number. Whenever I am executing the VO for the second time it is throwing ORA-01722: invalid number exception. The value that is being bound is 100% number. The JDBC version I am using is 9.2.0.6.0
It is reproducible in instance and JDeveloper.
I have no clue why it is happening. Appreciate if someone can give some pointers.

I'm just trying to rule out the possiblity of unsynchronized load balanced servers because the issue begaviour is not pointing to code as such otherwise it shouldn't have been happening in a random way. Have you put the trace and seen the value of parameter which is getting binded at the time the error is getting generated.

This error occurs when you try to create a materialized view , but if you run the sql the results are perfectly fine. Well it happend to me also and to fix this I made sure all the coulmns have the same data type which are used in joins or in where clause.
use
where
to_number(col1)=to_number(col2) and to_number(col3)=to_number(col4)
hope this helps..
