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["@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

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.

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?
thanks

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.

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?

I think its better you use APEX 4.x version ratherthan using old version.
You will get more features and some bug fixes and also it's easy for you to get some help when you need.
* If this answer is helpfull or correct then please mark it and grant the points.

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

Hello Gurus,
I keep getting the following error:

It happens on wizard generated tabular form.

END IF;
END LOOP;
END;I am trying to update venue_prsntd_qtr. I have commented everything else out to see if I can limit where the error is coming from.
qtr is a number field in the database. I have gone back and forth with variable type in the code and still get the same error.
I am using oracle db 10g, apex 3.2.1
Thanks

Hi,
I am guessing that apex_application.g_f05 is a date field. If that is the case, you need to use to_date() before using to_char(). For example:
SELECT to_char('01-jan-10', 'MON') FROM dual -- Error!
SELECT to_char(to_date('01-jan-10'), 'MON') FROM dual -- Ok!
I hope this helps.

Numeric or value error: hex to raw conversion error , pls help

I am having problem with a sproc which accepts a Raw parameter.
I have a table called Profile:
CREATE TABLE PROFILES
PROFILEID INTEGER NOT NULL,
USERID INTEGER NOT NULL,
PROFILE RAW(255)
and a sproc named addprofile
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE addprofile
profile IN RAW,
userName IN VARCHAR2
AS
userId INT;
BEGIN
GetUserIdByName( userName, userId);
INSERT INTO Profiles
( ProfileID,userId , profile )
VALUES ( Profiles_ProfileID_SEQ.NEXTVAL,AddProfile.userId ,
AddProfile.profile );
END;
I am calling the Ent Library's Insert profile method which is part of DbProfileProvider.cs (Security App block). It is trying to persist a serialized profile object into the database.
private void InsertProfile(string userName, byte[] serializedProfile,
Data.Database securityDb, IDbTransaction transaction)
DBCommandWrapper cmd = securityDb.GetStoredProcCommandWrapper
(SPAddProfile);
cmd.AddInParameter("userName", DbType.String, userName);
cmd.AddInParameter("profile", DbType.Binary, serializedProfile);
securityDb.ExecuteNonQuery(cmd, transaction);
I get the following error:
Any suggestion on what needs to be changed to get this working? thanks!

Harsh,
I am not a user of the Enterprise Library so I can not speak to the specifics of that. However, here is a short sample that is based on the information you've provided. Perhaps it will be useful.
Database:
create table profiles
profileid integer not null,
userid    integer not null,
profile   raw(255)
create or replace procedure addprofile
p_profileid in integer,
p_userid    in integer,
p_profile   in raw
as
begin
insert into
    profiles (profileid, userid, profile)
    values (p_profileid, p_userid, p_profile);
end;

    static void Main(string[] args)
      // connect to local db using o/s authentication
      OracleConnection con = new OracleConnection("User ID=/; Pooling=False");
      con.Open();
      // create command object and set properties
      OracleCommand cmd = new OracleCommand();
      cmd.Connection = con;
      cmd.CommandText = "ADDPROFILE";
      cmd.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure;
      // parameter object for profileid
      OracleParameter p_profileid = new OracleParameter();
      p_profileid.OracleDbType = OracleDbType.Int32;
      p_profileid.Value = 1;
      p_profileid.Direction = ParameterDirection.Input;
      // parameter object for userid
      OracleParameter p_userid = new OracleParameter();
      p_userid.OracleDbType = OracleDbType.Int32;
      p_userid.Value = 1;
      p_userid.Direction = ParameterDirection.Input;
      // create a byte array for the raw value
      ASCIIEncoding encoder = new ASCIIEncoding();
      byte[] byteArray = encoder.GetBytes("TestProfile");
      // parameter object for profile
      OracleParameter p_profile = new OracleParameter();
      p_profile.OracleDbType = OracleDbType.Raw;
      p_profile.Value = byteArray;
      p_profile.Direction = ParameterDirection.Input;
      // add parameters to collection
      cmd.Parameters.Add(p_profileid);

      catch (OracleException ex)
        Console.WriteLine(ex.Message);
      // clean up objects
      p_profile.Dispose();
      p_userid.Dispose();
      p_profileid.Dispose();
      cmd.Dispose();
      con.Dispose();
}Maybe the part about creating the byte array is what you are missing...

its due to the converion of datatypes between the two system.

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.
Regards,
P.S.Chitra

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'.
