Long column size??

Hi all,
Is there any way of finding the exact/approx size of a LONG column in a table???
i know that user_segments and vsize cannot.
any ideas??
Thanks in advance.

Not really, no. This is an inherent limitation for this type. Best practice was to always store the size into another column when the LONG data was inserted or updated if you needed to know that later. LOB columns are more flexible than LONG.

Imp-00020 long column too large for column buffer size (22)

Hi friends,
I have exported (through Conventional path) a complete schema from Oracle 7 (Sco unix patform).
Then transferred the export file to a laptop(window platform) from unix server.
And tried to import this file into Oracle10.2. on windows XP.
(Database Configuration of Oracle 10g is
User tablespace 2 GB
Temp tablespace 30 Mb
The rollback segment of 15 mb each
undo tablespace of 200 MB
SGA 160MB
PAGA 16MB)
All the tables imported success fully except 3 tables which are having AROUND 1 million rows each.
The error message comes during import are as following for these 3 tables
imp-00020 long column too large for column buffer size (22)
imp-00020 long column too large for column buffer size(7)
The main point here is in all the 3 tables there is no long column/timestamp column (only varchar/number columns are there).
For solving the problem I tried following options
1.Incresed the buffer size upto 20480000/30720000.
2.Commit=Y Indexes=N (in this case does not import complete tables).
3.first export table structures only and then Data.
4.Created table manually and tried to import the tables.
but all efforts got failed.
still getting the same errors.
Can some one help me on this issue ?
I will be grateful to all of you.

Thanks, but this note is for older releases, 7.3 to 8.0...
In my case both export and import were made on a 11.2 database.
I didn't use datapump because we use the same processes for different releases of Oracle, some of them do not comtemplate datapump. By the way, shouldn't EXP / IMP work anyway?

UpdateCharacterStream for LONG column gives SQLException: Data size bigger than max

I have a LONG column and when I call updateCharacterStream via the resultset I get the following error:
SQLException: Data size bigger than max size for this type: 2391
I am trying to update the column with a value that is 2391 in length. The column is defined as a LONG so it is plenty big enough.
What gives?
If I use a UTF-8 database it works OK. But if I use a db that is on the default character set I get the error. There are NO multibyte characters, I just happened to test it against my unicode db and it worked.

This only happens with the thin driver. I am using 8i. It also works OK if the target db is in UTF8!

Some background, like what's the purpose, did this work before, what has changed, etc.

How to change font size, maximum column size in the result screen ?

hi All
That's great when using SQL Dev.
But I also have a trouble that how to change font size, maximum column size in the result screen ?
My users think that font in result screen is shown very small, and whenever the data in each colum is long then it's not shown full data in column, they must double click for extend the size. Have the option to default the max size for showing full data in each column ? I try but still not to do that .
Appreciate for anyone to help us.
Thanks all.
Sigmasvn

You can't change the font for the results screen yet, however you will be able to select an auto-fit option for selected columns, so if some columns have slitghtly wider text you'll be able to set the column widths to handle these wider columns.
Also, there s the option of switching the layout of a record in the grid.

Change Tablespace of a table with LONG column

I have a 9i database that I have just gotten control of. At this point there is just one big dictionary managed tablespace for everything created by users. I am trying to move to multiple locally managed tablespaces with fixed extent sizes but I have run into a problem.
I have one table with one LONG datatype column. Apparently there is a huge amount of work involved to change the code if I make it a BLOB so that is out.
At this point I would like to change the tablespace of this table but I can't move it the normal way because of the LONG column. I have found mention of being able to do this with "COPY" but I can't find any documentation on the "COPY" command in the 9i Docs.
Any help would be appreciated,
Chris S.

Chris-
Can't you create your new table ahead of time in your new tablespace?
You could then use a statement like:
COPY FROM old/your_password@olddb TO new/your_password@newdb -
REPLACE NEWTABLE -
USING SELECT * FROM OLDTABLE;

My Oracle7 manual states that LONG columns can store 2GB of text.
I tried the above with LONG RAW columns and it worked fine.
Can anyone explain why I get this error? I've tried it with
different sizes and when the data is <2000 bytes it works fine
for LONG columns.
My table is simple:
create table TestLongs (key INTEGER PRIMARY KEY, data LONG);
My Java code is also very simple:
public class TestOracle
public static void main(String[] args)
Connection con = null;
PreparedStatement pstmt = null;
try
Class.forName("oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver");
con = DriverManager.getConnection(
"jdbc:oracle:thin:@itchy:1526:test",

byte[] data = new byte[2500];
for (int i=0; i< 2500; i++)
data[i] = 53;
String sql = "INSERT INTO TestLongs (key, data)
VALUES(1, ?)";
pstmt = con.prepareStatement(sql);
ByteArrayInputStream bis = new ByteArrayInputStream
(data);
pstmt.setAsciiStream(1, bis, data.length);
pstmt.execute();
catch (SQLException e)
System.err.println("An error occurred with the
database: " + e);
e.printStackTrace();
catch (Exception e)
System.err.println("Oracle JDBC driver not found." +
e);
e.printStackTrace();
finally
try
if (pstmt != null)
pstmt.close();
if (con != null)
con.close();
catch (SQLException e)
System.err.println("Unable to close
statement/connection.");

I tried it with the old 7.3.x JDBC driver and it works fine. I
also noticed after further testing that it sometimes worked
with the 8.0.4 driver. Looks like a bug in the 8.0.4 driver or
some wacky incompatibility.

Text search query into long column

hi,
I need some explanation about this situation:
I need to perform a search into a long column containing XML file. Not all records found match my search criteria.
If I search in a varchar column it seem to be correct, so have you any suggest for me?
thanks in advance,
Virginio

I'm working with Oracle8i version 8.1.7
realese 3.
This is an example of query that I'm using:
select *
from <table>
where contains (<column>, <string>, 0) > 0
where <column> is of type Long and <string>
is the text to search. At the moment I don't need to apply any score filter.
I've generated the index on this table as suggested by documentation:
create index <index_name> on <table>(<column>) indextype is ctxsys.context;
Thanks in advanced,
Virginio.

Looks like you are trying to save the history data (with :OLD values).
If you are trying to generate a trigger at runtime, then you need a procedure which is able to loop through user_tab_columns for the given table and construct column strings for generation of triggers.
Then you can use EXECUTE IMMEDIATE to create the trigger.
Keep in mind that debugging such a procedure would be headache if you face any problems in creating the same.

You need to do it in some sort of sql script which would set the column formatting before the query would start and then would clear the formatting after the query gets finished. See an example below,
SQL> column ename format a20 heading emp_name
SQL> select ename from emp
2 ;

Reg : Column Size -

Hi All,
I've got a doubt regarding alter the column size.
There's a table column which is currently 255 and I want to increase it to max i.e. 4000 Char
It is used in many places by various objects - Procs/Packages/Triggers/Views...
Is it advisable to use Varchar2(4000Char) or using LONG or CLOBS??
If I use LONG/CLOB now, will it affect the existing objects since they believe the column to be VARCHAR2...?
Help highly appreciated.

It is used in many places by various objects - Procs/Packages/Triggers/Views...
Is it advisable to use Varchar2(4000Char) or using LONG or CLOBS??Never use LONG. the LONG datatype was deprecated over a decade ago. If you're needing to store large amounts of text, use CLOB.
If I use LONG/CLOB now, will it affect the existing objects since they believe the column to be VARCHAR2...?It's one of those "it depends" answers, because it depends what the code is doing with it. It's not so much a case of the code/objects believing it to be varchar2, but whether that code or objects can do implicit conversions without issue. If it's just a case of something inserting into it, believing it's a varchar2, then it would work ok e.g.
SQL> create table mytable (x clob);
Table created.
SQL> insert into mytable (x) values ('This is my varchar string');
1 row created.The problem would obviously be if there is code that is reading the data into a varchar2 variable or datatype and the data exceeds the 4000 byte limit, in which case you will get issues.
The best way to look at is is... Yes, it will effect existing code/objects, and you need to carry out an impact analysis to see where and how it's used.

The copy works fine if I remove the long column from the CREATE TABLE "Tmp_CB_REPORT" statement
and the cursor copy statement. Any help is appreciated.

What I think you should do is to turn your long into a LOB. LOBs are much malleable than LONGs. I suggest you have a look at the documentation for DBMS_LOB. You can create a function using DBMS_LOB that uses a temporary CLOB to reas your long column an dreturn a CLOB.

Report Generation excel column size

Dear,
In the project, I save the data in Excel with Report Generation. I would like change just the column size of my Excel report. There is an explanation in the labview help but I have always an error when I run the VI.
I work with labview 8.2
A VI is joined with a simple example.
Regard
Julien

Julien,
I realize you only want to modify columns, but you need to put in a start and stop row value other than -1. Try setting the start and stop rows to 0.

Long column size??
