ORA-00904 not documented since Oracle 10.1!

Hi,
I am not very sure if this has been left out for some purpose, but frequently encountered error like ORA-00904 is not there is the Error messages anymore. It is not documented since 10gR1 (http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B14117_01/server.101/b10744/toc.htm).
Also, the Chapter headings do not have that number in the range.
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14219/toc.htm
2 ORA-00000 to ORA-00832
3 ORA-00910 to ORA-01497 -- 904 missed out
Even 11g documentation is the same (http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14219/toc.htm).
Is this intentional? Has this error been deprecated? If yes, what is the alternative error number?
Probably there are many other error numbers that do not seem to be documented if we compare the Error message Chapter titles between 8.1.7 and 10.1.
Regards,

Hello. Beginning in 10gR1, we began importing the descriptions of the error messages directly from the code into the book. The scripts we use capture only those messages with "Cause" and "Action" text in the code, because it would be meaningless to publish the error numbers without this information. Unfortunately the series of messages you mention do not have this text in the code, so they are omitted from the book. I have filed a code bug to get this fixed.

Diana

Pl/SQL Error ORA-00904 not showing in Oracle SQL Developer

Hi,
I am new to Oracle and the various development tools available.
Whilst using Oracle SQL Developer we have come across a scenario where a PL/SQL package does not compile, but only shows warnings in the compiler log.
The same packeage when compiled using PL/SQL Navigator shows a much more detailed list of errors, and highlights the real problem.
Why does Oracle SQL Developer not show the following error?
PL/SQL: ORA-00904: "SERIAL_LINE_ID": invalid identifier
Regards
Adrian

There are various settings you can give to messages. (eg, informational, warning, severe).
Tools-PL/SQL compiler options.
Normally, just the first 20 messages are displayed.
Either change code to get rid of warning messages, or change settings to ignore informational and warning messages.
P.S. There is a dedicated sqldeveloper forum where your question should really have been posted.

My thoughts were along the line that the environment for user x not set up correctly but I verified ORACLE_SID & ORACLE_HOME prior to posting. This user's environment references TNS_ADMIN so I'm sending you the tnsnames.ora from that location.
Please note that I can execute this logged in as the db binary owner (environment set the same as user x).

SQLPlus COPY error: ORA-03114: not connected to ORACLE

This is what I'm trying to do:
I'm logged into an Oracle 8.1.6 database on a Windows 2000 Professional box and trying to copy data and tables from an Oracle 7.3.4 database on an HP/UX box.
I log into my 8.1.6 SQLPlus as:
scott/tiger@testdb
Then I run the following:
SQL> set copycommit 1
SQL> set arraysize 1000
SQL> copy from user/user1@devp1 -
create reps_t -
using -
select * from reps_tThis is my error:
ORA-03114: not connected to ORACLE
Can someone give me a better understand how SQLPlus COPY works and give me an idea how to locate the problems.
Thanks,
Laith E.H.

I think this combination user/user1@devp1
is not ok.
U can get good material about copy command
from technet itself. Just search for Copy

ORA-03114 not connected with Oracle when I execute Query

Hi!
I have a Problem with Oracle 9 but I don't know what wrong.
When I execute this query I get an error everytime:
select * from
perleist pl
left outer join leikat l on pl.lsnr = l.lsnr
where pl.von < sysdate
and
pl.id not in
select idperleist from rechaus
where buch_schl <> 'STRN'
It's not the complete select but the point is I use
"left outer join leikat l on pl.lsnr = l.lsnr"
( not the (+) - Opoerator) and a "not in" -Clausel.
Without the "not in" -Clausel the select runs fine.
Sorry for my bad english g
Thx for help :)

Hi!
My Selection doesn't run :((
The Selection runs with (+) -Join and not with "left outer join" .
i need the "left outer join" couse the Application runs on Oracle

Here something I tested:

pl.lsnr = l.lsnr (+)

Change Notification not working on Oracle 11.2.0.2.0 but ok with 11.2.0.1.0

Hello together,
we have an .Net application which implements the Change Notification using ODP.NET.
On the customer site all worked well on the development and test environment connected to an Oracle database version 11.2.0.1.0. After setup of the production environment (Oracle 11.2.0.2.0 on another server) the change notification didn't work anymore.
The notifications are registered properly, but the event handles don't receive the change events.
It was checked, if all ports are open, firewall etc. and no hint from this side was found, why it should not work.
Then we recompiled the .Net application with references set to the new version of ODP.NET (11.2.0.2.1) - also without success.
After all, a second database was installed in the production environment, but now version 11.2.0.1.0 (same version as in development and test environment), and if connected to this database the change notification worked as expected.
Can anybody give me a hint, what might be the reason for not receiving change notification events on Oracle 11.2.0.2.0 ?
Thanks a lot and best regards
hattl

This is a DB bug, not an ODP.NET bug. If it were documented anywhere, it would be in the DB README. This problem affects anyone using change notification on a DB on any platform. This is not a problem specific to ODP.NET.
I suspect this issue is not documented since it was diagnosed after 11.2.0.2 became available. If you wish to track a bug, you can log into My Oracle Support and view the bug log. I viewed the bug log myself and the problem has been resolved. It's just waiting for the 11.2.0.3 patchset to be released.
If your organization needs this fix sooner than the second half of this year, let me know. I'll ask Oracle Support if they can include this fix in a bundled patch or one-off.

Strangely this error is not consistent,it goes when we refresh the screen.Please suggest me something.

Are you using 'Enable connection pooling' in your connection pool for Oracle ?
- from help "Allows a single database connection to remain open for the specified time for use by future query requests. Connection pooling saves the overhead of opening and closing a new connection for every query. If you do not select this option, each query sent to the database opens a new connection."
Maybe the database is dropping the connection before OBIEE closes it if your using this option.
Is your database or BI Server clustered ? (Rac or OBIEE Clustering)
Maybe one of the nodes cannot connect, and you get success from one and failure from another
Is your TNS Listener 'stable' ie its not dropping connections for anything else ?

Waiting for help. What thing im missing.....

Naeem,
There is no setting that would allow you to drop the double quotes round the object names as the translation to upper case is made by the Oracle database.
The only solution would be to create views in Oracle that translate the names to upper case, for example -
CREATE VIEW EMP (EMPNO, ENAME, SAL, HIREDATE)
AS SELECT "empno", "ename", "sal", "hiredate"
FROM "emp"@DG4MSQL;
and then select from the view -
SELECT EMPNO, ENAME FROM EMP;
This is discussed in the documentation -
Oracle® Database Gateway for SQL Server User’s Guide, 11g Release 2 (11.2)
in the section -
SQL Server Gateway Features and Restriction
- Case Sensitivity

Mike
