Number conversion error

Hello All,
I have the following code with me:
data:w_s1 type c,
w_q1_act_rec1(14) type c,
W_q LIKE EKPO-MENGE.
w_s1 = '-'.
w_q1 = '52,352.900'.
concatenate w_s1 w_q1 into W_Q1.
condense W_Q1.
W_Q = W_Q1.
when i execute the above code I get the following short dump:
The program attempted to interpret the value "-52,352.900 " as a number, but
since the value contravenes the rules for correct number formats,
this was not possible.
the program is giving me a dump when I am insertinf w_Q1's value to W_Q.
As far as I know W_Q should hold -ve sign.
Please advise.

Hi rajatg ,
pls try changing
w_q1 = '52,352.900'.
with
w_q1 = '52352.900'.

Numeric or value error: character to number conversion error

I'm having problems inserting a value from a date picker field (DD-MON-YYYY HH MI )
i'm submitting this value to a packaged procedure that accepts this field as VARCHAR2 .
on the insert, i do a to_date( P_DATE, 'DD-MON-YYYY HH:MI PM' )
and i get the numeric conversion error.
If I change the to_date on the procedure side, I get the :could not read the end of the format mask - which I've found threads about on this site.
I've tried using HH24 and different formats, but I get one of the two above errors on the insert.
If I don't fill in the datepicker field at all, it works fine.
help is appreciated !
Bill

Re: Error, numeric or value error: character to number conversion error

Can someone please please tell me why I'm getting this error and what I'm doing wrong? It looks like a simple error, "numeric or value error: character to number conversion error".
My code is as follows:
string connectionString = WebConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["DEMO_TEST"].ConnectionString;
OracleConnection con = new OracleConnection(connectionString);
OracleCommand cmd = new OracleCommand("DEMO.PKG_LOCATION_TYPE.INS", con);
cmd.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure;
cmd.Parameters.Add(new OracleParameter("@P_DESCRIPTION", OracleDbType.Varchar2, 60));
cmd.Parameters["@P_DESCRIPTION"].Value = "Test_Description";
cmd.Parameters.Add(new OracleParameter("@P_NAME", OracleDbType.Varchar2, 6));
cmd.Parameters["@P_NAME"].Value = "Test_Name";
cmd.Parameters.Add(new OracleParameter("@P_LOCATION_TYPE_CD", OracleDbType.Decimal, 4));
cmd.Parameters["@P_LOCATION_TYPE_CD"].Direction = ParameterDirection.InputOutput;
con.Open();
try
cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
catch
//In case of an error
finally
con.Close();
con.Dispose();
And I recieve the following error block:

********************************************************

Are the parameters in your procedure in the same order as they are created in this code? Oracle command works by position unless you change it to be BindByName.
Failing that you seem to have defined a parameter (P_NAME) to have a length of 6, and are then setting it's value to a string with a length of 9.
Also the in/output parameter is defined as type decimal. Is this correct? It is defined as InputOutput but you don't assign it any value.
If these suggestions don't help then perhaps if you post the stored procedure you might get some more ideas.

PL/SQL: numeric or value error: character to number conversion error in TRG

Hi,
I've got strange issue with one trigger which during update of table reports (DB is 9.2.0.8):
ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: character to number conversion error
ORA-06512: at "UDR_LOG", line 345
ORA-04088: error during execution of trigger 'UDR_LOG'but line 345 is:
END IF;
so its kind of strange
the code looks like
343 IF nvl(to_char(:old.PKD_ID),'''') <> nvl(to_char(:new.PKD_ID),'''') THEN
344 v_zmn := v_zmn || 'PKD_ID''' || to_char(:old.PKD_ID) || '''' || to_char(:new.PKD_ID) || '''';
345 END IF;
so its concatenation not to_number usage .error is triggered by update statement on any column .
I'm sorry I cant provide You with whole trigger code .
So if You could only recommend any investigation method that would be great .
Regards
Greg

Hi, Greg,
When there's an error in a trigger, the line numbers in the error messages are relative to the first DECLARE or BEGIN statement; often, that's a few lines after CREATE OR REPLACE TRIGGER. Post a few lines after what you already posted.
If you can't find the error, then create another table for testing this, and create a smaller trigger on that table, which does only enough to cause the error. Then you'll be able to post the complete trigger, and the code needed to re-create the problem.

Only INVALID_NUMBER exception is handled and also VALUE_ERROR should be handeled. You can resolve it by handling VALUE_ERROR exception or by adding WHEN OTHERS as I did in following example.

2      aiv_number in varchar2 )

It gives an error like number to charcter conversion error am not able to resolve it.
I also use TO_NUMBER functions to convert but it doesn't works..please help me out..
Following code I used to upload the data:
DECLARE
v_blob_data BLOB;

i need to make last two rows number type..
it works fine if it is varchar2 but not with number type..
plz help out

Hello,
>> "PRIORITY" VARCHAR2(4000) NOT NULL ENABLE
What is the valid values of this column that you need to use varchar2(4000)? Are you sure this column include valid numbers?

ORA-06502 PL/SQLnumeric or value error character to number conversion error

Hi,
I have written report in FastReport and I am using "Oracle Provider for OLE DB" for Oracle connection.
I have seen that my report throws oracle exception in some machines , so I analysed my PL/SQL and saw that problem occurs in "TO_NUMBER" function. (if i remove it exception does not occur)
However, same report works fine in another machine with the same data (same oracle provider version).
What can be the problem? What can be the dependence?
Thanks in advance
Elshan
p.s. Oracle provider version is 11.2.0.2.0

Hi ,
the reason you are gettin this error is ecause sometimes in your data you are trying to convert a character to a number. When you say it works fine in other machine dos it mean for the same data set or a different data?
If you thing that you data may conatin a character and you still need to use TO_NUMBer than you should chack the data before converting and if it is a character than you should no do the conversion.
you can use this link to chek numeris or non numeric
How to check if a field is numeric?

ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: character to number conversion

Hello,
I am new to Oracle Apex so I decided to read and do the tutorials that are on the apex.oracle.com site.
Now I am at the tutorial 6: How to Work with Check Boxes of the Advanced Tutorials.
At a certain point you have to add a new radio button.
At the Item Source Value you have to add SELECT 'Y' FROM DUAL WHERE :P2_LIST_PRICE*0.75=:P2_MIN_PRICE.
But when I try to create the item, I keep getting the following error:
ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: character to number conversion error
Error creating item.
Does anybody know what could be the problem.
Thanks in advance.

Here I m passing a string variable to pass the select statement for the ref cursor.
There seems some problem in the substr conversion in the statement.

But when i run as a independent staement passing real values in the place of placeholders
i get the result right.
The *:PERIOD_NAME* format is *'Jan-2009-10'* .
And I need to pass the *:PERIOD_NAME* to the query as *'Jan-09-10'*
Pls suggest.

This is important to my company to be able to put this data into an email. If anyone can help me, I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you in advance.

Lets isolate the erroring line by running the code in debug mode and adding some debug lines at various stages in the code
Apex has a builtin function named wwv_flow.debug which can print messages to the debug stack and would be visible when the page is run in debug mode.

Error while impdp: ORA-02374: conversion error loading table

Hi,
I am trying to convert the character set from WE8ISO8859P1 to AL32UTF8 using expdp/impdp. for this I first convert WE8ISO8859P1 to WE8MSWIN1252 in source DB to get rid of “lossy” data. I created new database(target) with character set AL32UTF8 and nls_length_semantics = ’CHAR’ and created all the tablespaces as in source DB with auoexend on. I took full export (expdp) of source DB excluding TABLESPACE,STATISTICS,INDEX,CONSTRAINT,REF_CONSTRAINT and imported using impdp to target DB. I found below error in the import log file:
ORA-02374: conversion error loading table "SCTCVT"."SPRADDR_CVT"
ORA-26093: input data column size (44) exceeds the maximum input size (40)
ORA-02372: data for row: CONVERT_STREET_LINE1 : 0X'20202020202020202020202020202020202020202020202020'
I checked with select query on both DBs with below results.
source DB:
04:58:42 SQL> select count(*) from "SCTCVT"."SPRADDR_CVT";
COUNT(*)
74553
target DB:
04:59:24 SQL> select count(*) from "SCTCVT"."SPRADDR_CVT";
COUNT(*)
74552
please suggest me a solution to this.
Thanks and Regards.

Quantity Conversion Error in Net Price Calculation

We are currently using SRM 5.0 ECS where we created a material PO and had a problem with the product not having the language E maintain in the material master. This caused the PO to have status of "error in process" Once we fixed this issue and tried to reprocess the PO we're not getting the following error message in the Application Monitor:
No Instance of Object type PurchaseOrder has been created. External Reference
Puchase Order still contains faulty Items
Quantity Conversion Error in Net Price Calculation
Has anyone seen this or know what we can do to resolve this so that the PO gets replicated in R3?
Thanks in advance.

Hi Robert,
Regarding this backend error E 212 06 Quantity conversion error in net
price calculation.
This error is because in the PO Order price unit is empty. And
quantity is null. So, please enter the quantity and order price unit
for this PO and order the PO again. Or you can retransfer the
PO manually using the FM BBP_PD_PO_TRANSFER_EXEC. (for this fm you need
to input the PO header guid, which you will get it from tx.BBP_PD
by providing PO number and object type as BUS2201).
This has worked for other customers.
Hope this helps,
Kind Regards,
Matthew

Runtime error in J2IUN - "DYNPRO_FIELD_CONVERSION" / "Conversion Error*"

Hi All,
I am facing run time error problem during Transaction J2IUN "DYNPRO_FIELD_CONVERSION" / "Conversion Error"
Error analysis:
The program has been interrupted and cannot resume.
Program "J_1IRUTZN" attempted to display fields on screen 9000.
An error occurred during the conversion of this data.
There was a conversion error in the output of fields to the screen.
The formats of the ABAP output field and the screen field may not match.
Some field types require more space on the screen than in the ABAP
program. For example, a date output field on the screen requires two
more characters than the corresponding field in the ABAP program. When
the date is displayed on the screen, an error occurs resulting in this
error message.
Screen name.............. "J_1IRUTZN"
Screen number............ 9000
Screen field............. "UTIL1-REM_BAL"
Error text............... "FX015: Sign lost."
Other data:
Kindly guide me to resolve the issue.

Character conversion error

Hi all,
We are getting the following error when trying to parse an xml string resource - Character conversion error: "Illegal ASCII character, 0xc2" (line number may
be too low)-. We have not been able to get around this. We have tried creating the InputSource two different ways:
reader = new StringReader(stringSource);
src = new InputSource( reader );
and
src = new InputSource(new InputStreamReader(new ByteArrayInputStream(stringSource.getBytes())));
The problem does appear to go away if we treat the DTD we are validating against as a file. If we set it has a uri, we get the above problem.
Is anyone else experiencing this problem?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Greg

Hi,
2 possible solutions:
1) try using the xerces parser instead of sun's parser
2) look at the posting at the following url and see wether the posted solution solves your problem: http://forums.java.sun.com/thread.jsp?forum=34&thread=67558
Hope this helps,

"character conversion error" while parsing xml files

Hello,
I'm trying to parse MusicXML (Recordare) files, but I'm getting an exception.
I'm using the SAX parser (javax.xml.parsers.SAXParser).
Here is the code I use to instantiate it:
final javax.xml.parsers.SAXParserFactory saxParserFactory = javax.xml.parsers.SAXParserFactory.newInstance();
final javax.xml.parsers.SAXParser saxParser = saxParserFactory.newSAXParser();
final org.xml.sax.XMLReader parser = saxParser.getXMLReader();
I'm using my own handler, but I get the same exception even if I use org.xml.sax.helpers.DefaultHandler.
The error I get is:
Character conversion error: "Illegal ASCII character, 0xc2" (line number may be too low).
The first few lines of my xml files look like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?>
<!DOCTYPE score-partwise
PUBLIC "-//Recordare//DTD MusicXML 0.6 Partwise//EN"
"http://www.musicxml.org/dtds/partwise.dtd">
<score-partwise>
[...etc...]
If I delete the <!DOCTYPE ...> line, then I don't get the exception anymore. But the MusicXML files I get (from some other program) always contain this line, and it would be quite some work to delete them from every file manually.
So does anyone know if there is a way to avoid deleting that line in every file, while still being able to parse the xml files without exceptions?
Or maybe does anyone know what the exact cause of the exception is? (because I don't know what exactly causes it)
Thank you in advance.
Greetz,
Jipo

So does anyone know if there is a way to avoid
deleting that line in every file, while still being
able to parse the xml files without exceptions?ok this is side-stepping the real problem but I've used this code to filterout DTD references for other reasons   public static InputStream filterOutDTDRef(InputStream in) throws IOException {
      BufferedReader iniReader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(in));
      StringBuffer newXML = new StringBuffer();
      for(String line = iniReader.readLine(); line!=null; line = iniReader.readLine())
         newXML.append(line+"\n");
      in.close();
      int s = newXML.indexOf("<!DOCTYPE ");
      if(s!=-1)
         newXML.replace(s,newXML.indexOf(">",s)+1,"");
      return new ByteArrayInputStream(newXML.toString().getBytes());
   }and it actually speeds up the parsing phase too (since the DTD ref.s were on the web and the XML standard mandates that there is a fetch for each xml file parsed..)
you can feed the above into the InputSource constructor that takes an InputStream argument.
Now for the real problem... 0xc2 is "LATIN CAPITAL LETTER A WITH CIRCUMFLEX" according to a unicode chart - which is not an ASCII character (as the error message correctly reports). I'm not sure why the file is being parsed as ASCII though? You could try parsing in a FileReader to the inputsource and hope it picks up the default character encoding of your system, and that that character encoding matches the file. Or you could try passing in a FileReader constructed with a explicit character encoding (eg "UTF8") and see if that does the trick?
