No, I don't think that explanation is correct. I don't think it has to do with user privs. besides, we don't
adjust rowids on an import -- we recreate the index, just like a b-tree index import would.
This should be working. It's most likely a bug in our (i.e. Text) import code -- SYS.XMLTYPE is a little
strange because under the covers it's actually a function-based index.
I will test it out and file a bug if I can reproduce the behavior on solaris.

ORA-00054 error when loading Oracle table using Data Services

Hello,
we are facing ORA-00054 error when loading Oracle table using BO Data services
(Oracle 10g database, BODS Xi 3.2 SP3)
Test Job performs
1- truncate table
2- load table (tested in standard and bulk load modes)
Scenario when issue happens is:
1- Run loading Job
2- Job end in error for any Oracle data base error
3- When re-running the same Job, Job fails with following error
ORA-00054: resource busy and acquire with NOWAIT specified
It seems after first failure, Oracle session for loading the table stays active and locks the table.
To be able to rerun the Job, we are forced need to kill Oracle session manually to be able to run the Job again.
Expected behaviour would be : on error rollback modifications made on table and BODS stops Oracle session in a clean way.
Can somebody tell me / or point me to any BODS best practice about Oracle error handling to prevent such case?
Thanks in advance
Paul-Marie

the ora-0054 can occure depending how the job failed before. If this occures you will need the DBA to release the lock on the table in question
Or
AL_Engine.exe on The server it creates the Lock. Need to Kill Them. Or stop it..
This Problem Occurs when we select The Bulkloading Option in orclae We also faced the same issue,Our admin has Killed the session. Then everything alright.

ORA-19007 when coping a table with an xml type in it to a new schema in the same database.
Hi all,
When I copy a table with an xml type in it to a new schema in the same database I get an ora-19009.
The setup is as follows I have a schema a with table TABLE_WITH_XMLTYPE where data is:
CREATE

when I try to do the following insert:
insert into schemaB.TABLE_WITH_XMLTYPE ( FOLDER_ID, SEARCH_PROPERTIES)
select FOLDER_ID, SEARCH_PROPERTIES from schemaB.TABLE_WITH_XMLTYPE;
I’ll get an ora-19007.
Can some one point me in the right direction how to solve this error.
Thanks Roelof.

Who did you create the second table, in other words, how did you COPY the table as you said...
If you created the second table via a CTAS (create table as select) then you will have created a table that is not the same as the original one. AFAIK I have once created an enhancement request for this after discovering that JDeveloper, for example, creates a "copy" via a CTAS which creates the wrong structure. Double check via package DBMS_METADATA.
SQL> set long 1000000
SQL> select DBMS_METADATA('TABLE','TABLE_WITH_XMLTYPE','SchemaA') from dual;
SQL> select DBMS_METADATA('TABLE','TABLE_WITH_XMLTYPE','SchemaB') from dual;If you have got two different tables, than Mark's solution should help.

Yes but this is a regular operation and the INSERT is the only opportunity.
BTW, look at what else I have just found:
INSERT INTO Local_Table (a, b)SELECT col1, col2 FROM DUAL INNER JOIN Table1@remote ON (1=1) LEFT JOIN Table2@remote ON (...)
OK.

Hi MST Support
Are there any other errors in SCC3. What kind of client copy you're performing SAP_ALL or CUST?
As per the logs in your post it seems that the table MD___M8001X does not exist in the database.You could try SE11 or SE14 to check the table.
Any other info would be really helpful.

"May" has different meanings, one of which is:
(used to express opportunity or permission)
Metalink note 19067.1 says:
This is not permitted.
... which agrees with the above meaning of it.
Besides these, it does not make any sense to me to create a unique index on a cluster. You can have primary keys in the tables you include in the cluster, it depends on your business requirement. But why do you need a unique index on a cluster?

Why Segment shrink is not supported for tables with function-based indexes

As we all know , Segment shrink is not supported for tables with function-based indexes.
But i'm very confused .
Why Segment shrink is not supported for tables with function-based indexes ?? what's its essential?

Creating a function based index creates a hidden virtual column (you'll see it if you query user_tab_cols) and once you index a virtual column you can no longer shrink the table:orcl> create table t1(c1 number,c2 as (c1 * 2)) segment creation immediate;
Table created.
orcl> alter table t1 enable row movement;
Table altered.
orcl>
orcl> alter table t1 shrink space;
Table altered.
orcl> create index i2 on t1(c2);
Index created.
orcl> alter table t1 shrink space;
alter table t1 shrink space
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-10631: SHRINK clause should not be specified for this object
orcl>so the issue is not with function based indexes per se, it is a level beneath that. Perhaps because the virtual column has no physical existance, when the row is moved there is no reason for Oracle to realize that an index needs updating? I haven't attempted to reverse engineer this, I would be interested to know if anyone else has.

To be honest, I don't think the transaction is necessary, but the developers put it there anyway. The select statement will put the result cam_status
into a variable, and then depends on its value, it will decide whether to execute the second update statement or not. I still can't upload the screen-shot, because it says it needs to verify my account at first. No clue at all. But it is very simple, just
like:
Clustered Index Update
[analyst_monitor].[IX_Clust_scam_an_name_window]
cost: 100%
By the way, for some reason, I can't find the object based on the associatedObjectId listed in the XML
<keylock hobtid="72057654588604416" dbid="8" objectname="CHAT.dbo.analyst_monitor"
indexname="IX_Clust_scam_an_name_window" id="lock4befe1100" mode="X" associatedObjectId="72057654588604416">
For example:
SELECT * FROM sys.partition WHERE hobt_id = 72057654588604416
This return nothing. Not sure why.

ORA-06502: error when inserting into table via db link with long datatype

Folks,
I am getting the following error:
ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: character string buffer too small.
This occurs when an insert is done via a database link into a table that has a LONG data type for one of the columns, and the string contains some carriage returns and or line feeds.
I have checked by removing the db link, and inserting into a local table with identical column data types, where there is no error.
So this might be another db link bug?
So I need to remove the carriage returns and/or line feeds
in my pl/sql block in the page process. I have tried
l_text := REPLACE(l_text, CHR(10), ' ');
l_text := REPLACE(l_text, CHR(13), NULL);
but still getting the ORA-06502. Would really appreciate some advice here, please.
Cheers
KIM

Scott,
Time to 'fess up':
My fault sorry, the error was coming from another page process where I had allowed insufficient string length for one of the variables, and my error message did not identify the page process clearly.
This leads me to make a request for future releases, could the system error messages state which page process caused the problem?
One other thing I notice, and this might be a feature not a fault, the page processes are numbered: "Page Process: 3 of 5". However process 3 is not the 3rd one to be processed, and probably refers to the order in which they are created. Should the number reflect the process order?
Cheers
KIM

Raising ora-01426 error while truncating table

Hi,
We have a procedure which executes in the following process for few set of tabls

Error ORA-01446 when updating a versioned table with SQLDeveloper 1.5.4

Hi,
I have been trying out Oracle Workspace Manager to test how versioned tables might work to our advantage. My basic testing process is:
1. Create a table
2. Add some data rows
3. Version enable the table
4. Create a workspace
5. Goto the created workspace
6. Update a row
7. Commit and I get the following error
UPDATE "COMSERV"."A_OWM_TEST" SET DESCRIPTION = 'ABCDEFGHIJzzzz' WHERE ROWID = 'AAAThNAAIAAAgwqAAY'
One error saving changes to table "COMSERV"."A_OWM_TEST":
Row 10: ORA-01446: cannot select ROWID from view with DISTINCT, GROUP BY, etc.
The same update works fine from SQLPlus so my question is Does SQL developer support table versioning or have I done something wrong is setting up my versioned tables?
Any suggestions greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Richard Wilkinson

hye...
is that any view referring to that table...
check the code on how u create that view...
for e.g.
CREATE OR REPLACE VIEW testview
(id, name)
AS
select * from testing;
this also will populate that ORA-01446 error.
just a suggestion cause i also have a similar problem on ORA-01446 and i resolve it by alter the view..
CREATE OR REPLACE VIEW testview

Error ORA-01426: numeric overflow when Creating table with double data type

Hi,
I am using ODP.NET to create a table with data from SQL to Oracle. The problem is with double data type fields that is equivalent to FLOAT(49) in Oracle. My syntax is:
CREATE TABLE SCOTT.ALLTYPES
F1 NUMBER(10),
F10 DATE,
F2 NUMBER(10),
F3 NUMBER(5),
F4 NUMBER(3),
F5 FLOAT(23),
F6 FLOAT(49),
F7 NUMBER (38,5),
F8 NVARCHAR2(500),
F9 NVARCHAR2(500)
Th error is with field F6 but I am not sure what is the correct type equivalent to double in SQL.
I woul appreciate if anyone can help me with this problem.

Does this simple test work for you?
In database:
create table float_test
f1 float(49)
);C# code:
using System;
using System.Data;
using System.Text;
using Oracle.DataAccess.Client;
using Oracle.DataAccess.Types;
namespace FloatTest
/// <summary>
/// Summary description for Class1.
/// </summary>
class Class1
    /// <summary>
    /// The main entry point for the application.
    /// </summary>
    [STAThread]
    static void Main(string[] args)
      // connect to local db using o/s authenticated account
      OracleConnection con = new OracleConnection("User Id=/");
      con.Open();
      // will hold the value to insert
      StringBuilder sbValue = new StringBuilder();
      // create a string of 49 number 9's
      for (int i = 0; i < 49; i++)
        sbValue.Append("9");
      // command object to perform the insert
      OracleCommand cmd = con.CreateCommand();
      cmd.CommandText = "insert into float_test values (:1)";
      // bind variable for the value to be inserted
      OracleParameter p_value = new OracleParameter();
      p_value.OracleDbType = OracleDbType.Double;
      p_value.Value = Convert.ToDouble(sbValue.ToString());
      // add parameter to collection
      cmd.Parameters.Add(p_value);
      // execute the insert operation
      cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
      // clean up
      p_value.Dispose();
      cmd.Dispose();
      con.Dispose();
}SQL*Plus after executing above code:
SQL> select * from float_test;
        F1
