Issue with extractvalue from table with XMLTYPE column.

I'm sure there is a simple answer but I am having problems
retrieving data from an xmltype column type.
I have two tables
descr dab_xmlName
TABLE of XMLTYPE
descr dab_testName
A NUMBER
AB NUMBER
DATA CLOB
DATA2 VARCHAR2(1600)
MYXML XMLTYPE
I have inserted the Oracle example XML purchaseOrder.xml into both dab_xml
and the myxml column in dab_test.
When I run the following:
SELECT extractvalue(OBJECT_VALUE, '/PurchaseOrder/Reference')
FROM dab_xml;
SBELL-2002100912333601PDT is returned
When I run this:
SELECT extractvalue(OBJECT_VALUE, '/PurchaseOrder/Reference')
FROM (select myxml from dab_test);
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-00904: "OBJECT_VALUE": invalid identifier
Why are the two different?
Any help will be appreciated.
Regards,
David

In short you want
SELECT extractvalue(myxml, '/PurchaseOrder/Reference')
FROM dab_test;This difference is that for dab_xml, there are no columns defined for the table, therefore you are [OBJECT_VALUE|http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B28359_01/server.111/b28286/pseudocolumns006.htm#sthref830] as an alias for a non existent column.
With dab_test, you have a column that contains the XML so you need to use that column name instead of OBJECT_VALUE.

Find size of table with XMLTYPE column STORE AS BINARY XML

Hi,
I have a table with structure as:
CREATE TABLE XML_TABLE_1
ID NUMBER NOT NULL,
SOURCE VARCHAR2(255 CHAR) NOT NULL,
XML_TEXT SYS.XMLTYPE,
CREATION_DATE TIMESTAMP(6) NOT NULL
XMLTYPE XML_TEXT STORE AS BINARY XML (
TABLESPACE Tablespace1_LOB
DISABLE STORAGE IN ROW
CHUNK 16384
RETENTION
CACHE READS
NOLOGGING)
ALLOW NONSCHEMA
DISALLOW ANYSCHEMA
TABLESPACE Tablespace2_DATA
- So HOW do I find the total size occupied by this table. Does BINARY storage work as LOB storage. i.e. I need to consider USER_LOBS as well for this.
OR foll. will work
select segment_name as tablename, sum(bytes/ (1024 * 1024 * 1024 )) as tablesize_in_GB
From dba_segments
where segment_name = 'XML_TABLE_1'
and OWNER = 'SCHEMANAME'
group by segment_name ;
- Also if I am copying it to another table of same structure as:
Insert /*+ append */ into XML_TABLE_2 Select * from XML_TABLE_1.
Then how much space in ROllbackSegment do I need. Is it equal to the size of the table XML_TABLE_1?
Thanks..

I think foll query calculates it right while including the LOB storage as:
SELECT SUM(bytes)/1024/1024/1024 gb
FROM dba_segments
WHERE (owner = 'SCHEMA_NAME' and
segment_name = 'TABLE_NAME')
OR (owner, segment_name) IN (
SELECT owner, segment_name
FROM dba_lobs
WHERE owner = 'SCHEMA_NAME'
AND table_name = 'TABLE_NAME')
It's 80 GB for our Table with XMLType Column.
But for the second point:
Do we need 80GB of UNDO/ROLLBACK Segment for performing:
Insert /*+ append */ into TableName1 Select * from TableName;
Thanks..

Import is very Slow with xmltype column in oracle 9.2.0.7

Hi
We are using oracle 9.2.0.7 on Solaris
The import without XMLTYPE column is faster the import of the table with XMLTYPE column.Also when we do the export in direct path it is still going for Conventional(I suppose this is correct for XMLTYPE).
Is this the general behaviour of XMLTYPE...if so how to improve the performance of the import.
Can anybody help us out in resolving the issue.

Issues with using XMLType indexes against a table with XMLType column

I am attempting to use an XMLIndex with a Structured Component and not having too much luck. Not much data in metalink nor is the documentation very helpful:
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E11882_01/appdev.112/e10492/xdb_indexing.htm#BCGHGIGC
The table DDL is as follows:

According to the documentation, I should be able to create a structured XMLIndex on the XMLType column with the following syntax:
SQL> create index eci_schema.rev_item_earn_dtl_virt_xmlix on eci_schema.rev_item_earn_dtl_virtual
2 (INV_DTL_IMG)
3 INDEXTYPE IS XDB.XMLIndex
4 parameters ('PATH TABLE RIED_PATH_TABLE')
5 local;
When I do this, I get the following error:
create index eci_schema.rev_item_earn_dtl_virt_xmlix on eci_schema.rev_item_earn_dtl_virtual
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-29958: fatal error occurred in the execution of ODCIINDEXCREATE routine
ORA-30959: The indexed column is not stored in CLOB.
What am I doing wrong? Based on the Oracle documentation, I was under the impression that 11.2 XMLIndex would work with Object Relational storage. Is this not the case?

CREATE INDEX ECI_SCHEMA.REV_ITEM_EARN_DTL_IX7
       ON ECI_SCHEMA.REV_ITEM_EARN_DTL
                  extractValue(inv_dtl_img, '/revenueInvoice/service/transportation/mstrTrkngNbr')

/Elements that occur at most once in each document can be indexed using extractValue(). Despite the fact that the index appears to be a functional index, when we create the index we automatically re-write the create index into a normal btree index on the column that contains the value for the element identified by the xpath.
Eg in the case of a functional index based on extractValue, defined on XMLType using Object relational storage, with an xpath that identifies a node that occurs at most once in each document is not a functional index, it's re-written into a plain old vanilla btree index. You can actually check this by looking in the system tables
Eg
SQL> connect system/oracle
Connected.
SQL> select table_name, index_name from all_indexes where owner = 'OE' and table_name = 'PURCHASEORDER';
TABLE_NAME                     INDEX_NAME
PURCHASEORDER                  LINEITEM_TABLE_MEMBERS
PURCHASEORDER                  ACTION_TABLE_MEMBERS
PURCHASEORDER                  SYS_C0011037
SQL> alter session set current_schema = OE
2 /
Session altered.
SQL> create unique index PO_REF_INDEX on PURCHASEORDER (extractValue(object_value,'/PurchaseOrder/Reference'));
Index created.
SQL> set lines 250
SQL> select index_name, index_type from all_indexes where owner = 'OE' and table_name = 'PURCHASEORDER';
INDEX_NAME                     INDEX_TYPE
PO_REF_INDEX                   NORMAL
LINEITEM_TABLE_MEMBERS         NORMAL
ACTION_TABLE_MEMBERS           NORMAL
SYS_C0011037                   NORMAL
SQL> select * from dba_ind_expressions where table_name = 'PURCHASEORDER' and index_owner = 'OE'
2 /
no rows selectedFrom the above we can see that the index created on extractValue has been re-written in a plain old vanilla BTREE index, and there is no definition for it in dba_ind_expressions So assuming you were able to create the index and insert the data you should find that your index is not a functional index.

Problem deleting from table with xmltype column

Hi,
Using a standard, simple screen (generated from JHeadstart), I don't seem to be able to delete from a table including an xmltype column. I have tried it even with a very simple mock table with only one column, an xmltype column, and every time I check the "delete" box and click "save", I get the following error:
oracle.jbo.RowInconsistentException: JBO-25014: Another user has changed the row with primary key oracle.jbo.Key[33 ].
I have tried this in the JDeveloper application module tester too and the result is the same.
Is it possible to delete a row from a table with an xmltype column? Am I doing something wrong? Is there something special needs done?
As I say, I did this with a one-xmltype-column table using the "Business Components from Tables" wizard, accepting all the defaults.
Thanks,
Darren

In short you want
SELECT extractvalue(myxml, '/PurchaseOrder/Reference')
FROM dab_test;This difference is that for dab_xml, there are no columns defined for the table, therefore you are [OBJECT_VALUE|http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B28359_01/server.111/b28286/pseudocolumns006.htm#sthref830] as an alias for a non existent column.

You should report this in a service request on http://metalink.oracle.com.

How create report with data from table and some columns results function ?

Hi,
How can i create on apex report region with some columns (of the report) as returned from a table and the other columns as results of plsql functions ?
for example , I want to create a report like that:
device last_date error_msg stop/start
kodak1 06/04/08 null >>
kodak2 08/03/08 good msg --^--
kodak3 08/04/08 err msg >>
3 rows returned
where the 3 first columns are data returned from the table and the forth column is the result of plsql function (returned for example false) and on that i want to display a button of start ( >> in this example ) or stop ( --^-- in this example)

Thomas,
There is no problem here -- this is fully suported scenario.
1. Bind Table dataSource to Customers node.
2. Bind individual cell editors to any attribute of customer or any nested node like Address, say create column with InputField as editor, then for "value" property select Customer.Address.Street.
Your nested nodes (like Address) must be non-singleton, set singleton=false on context designer tab.

Hmmmm ... I don't know if I should smile or frown with the implication that I am an OO guy :D :D
Most of my colleagues when I started working as a software engineer, treated me as too low-level because of my C background (started doing C in 1985).
In my last job, my colleagues hated my guts because I was asking them to squeeze every bit of performance out of C++ by using STL which is definitely not OO (although C++ is).
My current colleagues treat me as a DB guru (which I most definitely am not) and they overlook/forget the fact that most of them use Java libraries in their projects, that I wrote for them !
I am inclined to believe that I do not fall into any category in the end...
The only thing I am for sure - and I am proud of it - is inquisitive. I want to know everything there is about the tools I use, and so I end up spending hours and hours investigating... (Microsoft found that out the hard way when I filed 16 bug reports in 8 days when Visual C++ 6 came out ! Not that it hurt them though...)
This is where my confession ends (and my working on the XML validator starts...)

Hi Eric,
You can use XMLExists, like this :
select *
from message t
where xmlexists(
      'declare namespace env = "http://www.co.com/schemas/cfg-env/"; (: :)
       declare namespace hdr = "http://www.co.com/schemas/cfg-hdr/"; (: :)
       /env:Envelope/env:Header/hdr:MessageHeader/hdr:UserSession[hdr:LogonId=$id]'
       passing t.message_content_txt
             , 'R099999' as "id"
);

RH 10 issue with Fixed Column width

Hi,
Is anybody else having issues with setting a fix width for a column in a table? In RH v.10 the "fixed widths" are not staying "fixed" as I have them manually set.
I've recently been upgraded from Robohelp (html) v.8 to v.10.
In a "Design" view in v.8.0 when I set a column width from the right click menu (AutoFit > Fixed Column Width), the width of the column would be whatever width I'd set it to. Now, in v.10, the width is whatever width the Robohelp window is set to! For example, I have a large monitor and I've got Robohelp open in Full Screen mode, the table (a 1-cell table) gets set to the width of the window rather than the particular width I want to use! I want the cell to be a particular width (much less than my monitor or the open window's width). Can someone please tell me what I am doing wrong?
OS=Windows7.
Browser=IE9
Robohelp is installed locally (it is not being run over a network).
Thanks!
P.S. So far this is the only issue I've had after upgrading from RH v.8 to RH v.10.

Hi William,
In a "Design" view in v.10, the table (which is 1 cell) looks like a big rectangular box. I've turned off the border (cell or table border), so the border appears in gray.
Put mouse focus on this 1-cell table, then grab an edge with the mouse.
Move the table inward to make the column narrower in the view.
Then from the right click menu, choose AutoFit > Fixed Column Width.
Voilá - the width is back to the width of the display window.
Did that make sense to you? Thank you for your help and ideas.
Cheers,
Julia

Re : Issue with the column display in Bex reports

Hello Gurus,
I have an issue with the reports in Bex, this is a bit confusing scenario I would try to explain in more details. A query was already built for monthly Report in Sales and Billing for which the variable were Calender month/year range 1 (mandatory), range 2 range 3 range 4. These 4 variable were created and moved to column rows in query.
Later the user wanted the copy of same report but he wanted the variables to be Calender date range 1 (mandatory), range 2, range 3 , range 4. I have created them with 0calenderday as reference and moved to the columns.
for the monthly report text variables were already existing for the Calender month/ year, but for the daily report text variable were not existing for Dates. I have created a text variable for the date in the following way processing by
" replacement path" and reference characteristic as 0calday and in the replacement path tab.. in replace variable the selection is info object, the next option Replace with " External charactersitic value key " .
By creating this text variable the dates were being displayed in the colum header like 11/01/2013 - 11/30/2013 which satisfies the requirement.
But the user wanted to see the report same like monthly report when the mandatory variable Calender year/ month is selected, the rest of the columns range 2, range 3, range 4 are displayed as unassigned in the report. but coming back to the daily report when the user is giving the Calender date rage 1, he is finding that Calender date range 2, range 3, range 4 are also being displayed with values. He want to see the Calender date range 2,3,4 as unassigned in the report just like monthly. Please find the images attached.
As Calender month/ year is predefined, if the calender range values are not given it would show up as not assigned default. I have created a separate text variable for Calender day, I believe that could be the reason rest of the columns are not showing up as unassigned. The user want to see them as unassigned like monthly report columns.
I tried different ways changing the text variables but I could not change the display of the columns in Calender date report by the option - replace with ----> External characteristic value key, key, label. when I chose the option external characteristic value then the date was showing up in the text of the column when report is run ( Please find the image for the reference in the attachment ). . I request you to help me out in this. Please find the images of the variables and output below.

Anshu,
Thank you very much for above code I made minor changes to the code that finally worked. I created 4 different text variables needed for Calender date range 1, 2 ,3 ,4. Please find the code below for the text variable that worked in the system
WHEN 'ZTEXT_CAL1'.
   READ TABLE I_T_VAR_RANGE INTO loc_var_range
   WITH KEY VNAM = 'ZCALDATE1'.
    IF loc_var_range-LOW = '#'.
      dt_low = 'Not Assigned'.
      dt_high = 'Not Assigned'.
      CONCATENATE dt_low '-' dt_high INTO l_s_range-low.
    ELSE.
      CONCATENATE loc_var_range-low+4(2) '/' loc_var_range-low+6(2) '/' loc_var_range-low+0(4) into dt_low.
      CONCATENATE loc_var_range-high+4(2) '/' loc_var_range-high+6(2) '/' loc_var_range-high+0(4) into dt_high.
      CONCATENATE dt_low '-' dt_high INTO l_s_range-low.
    ENDIF.
        L_S_RANGE-SIGN = 'I'.
        L_S_RANGE-OPT = 'EQ'.
        APPEND L_S_RANGE TO E_T_RANGE.

ALV Report Output Print issue with more Columns

Hi Experts ,
I'm facing an issue while printing an ALV report which has around 22 columns .If i reduce the column display in the code . I'm able to print but not with 22 columns.. I have used Line-size = 1023 and line-count = 60 , but still the problem persists .
I also searched in SDN with similar issue but managed to get only the above solution which is not working .
Any other ways of doing it , kindly suggest .
Many Thanks,
Kumaran

175 characters is the maximum number of characters that can be generated in a line of a spool (next characters are stored on the next line of the spool). When the spool is printed, these line feeds are respected.
What is possible (I don't know) is that ALV chooses its own format type instead of the format type you have chosen when you run your program in background. To check that, just look at spool attributes (SP01).

Query slow in table having XMLTYPE column

Hi,
I've a table and a XMLTYPE column in it.
table:
a number
b xmltype
now when 1000 records are present and I do a select * form table it runs for 5-8 mins..
if i put an index on a and do teh query using the index still it takes 5-6 secs to retrieve a single query.
Is it normal ? I mean to say is it because of the clob it's taking time or I can tune it ?
Thanks,
Arun

What sort of query are you running on it?
As a rule, XMLTYPE and CLOB columns tend to be big. On the other hand they would normally be stored out of line, so I don't see why they should affect a full table scan.
As is the usual case with performance questions, you must provide sufficient information for us to answer your question. Please read Rob Van Wijk's helpful guide on the sort of things we need to know (and incidentally how you can start to solve your problem yourself): [When your query takes too long|http://forums.oracle.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=501834&tstart=0].

ORA-00600 occurs on an extract from a large xmlType column

When running the extract() function where search criteria has been specified (for an existing node), I receive the following error:
ORA-00600: internal error code, arguments: [qmxdMatchingChildren:overflow-1],[], [], [], [], [], [], []
However, if I remove the search criteria, the fragment returns no error.
Both queries have been working successfully on smaller documents.
Example with criteria:
SELECT extract(tab.xml_text,'//item[@val="2.1.2.2"]') ITEM
FROM CUR.ITEMS tab
WHERE item_id =271;
Example without criteria:
SELECT extract(tab.xml_text,'//item') ITEM
FROM CUR.ITEMS tab
WHERE item_id =271;
I'm estimating that the document inside the xmltype column is 4MB.
The database is Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.1.0.2.0 - Production With the Partitioning, OLAP and Data Mining options.
