ORA-01791: not a SELECTed expression - Order by

Hi,
Below query is executing in one system (database version 10.2 64 bit) without any error.
select distinct CONTRACTOR_ID,CONTRACTOR_NAME from CONTRACTOR order by REGISTRATION_NO
But same query is not working in other system (database version 10.2 32-bit). It throws ORA-01791: not a SELECTed expression error.
Please clarify why it is working in one system and not working in other system
Thanks,
Sujnan

Does the CONTRACTOR table have it's keys defined in both databases?
Oracle can decide to not do the DISTINCT (and thus allow such ORDER BY), in case it is aware of some key-column being selected. Take a look at this, same query, one works, one doesn't due to absence of primary key:
SQL> create table myemp(empno number not null primary key, job varchar2(10))
Table created.
SQL> select distinct empno from emp order by job;
     EMPNO
         2
         1
SQL> alter table emp drop primary key;
Table altered.
SQL> select distinct empno from emp order by job;
select distinct empno from emp order by job

Yes. If he wants the result to be sorted on product_code, he can do something like:
select DISTINCT Det from (
select product_code ||' ' || subproduct_code ||' '|| position_number as Det

order by substr(product_code,1);This will atleast sort the first section of the result. For example,

Report Does Not Follow Select Column Order

Hi all,
Apex 2.2 on 10gXE
I always encounter this problem, the display column on report does not follow the select column sequence order in the "region source".
It is very tedious clicking the up/down arrow one-by-one in the "report attributes" especially if the display columns are plenty like 40 columns.
Is there a fix/patch or alternative tips for this bug?
Thanks a lot,

This is not a bug. APEX maintains the original column order of the report. This avoids problems downstream in areas like the processing of <tt>g_fnn</tt> arrays in declarative tabular forms, where the assigned arrays are column-order dependent.
APEX 4.x fixes column ordering bugs that could lead to report corruption, and includes drag-and-drop column ordering in the new tree view in addition to the up/down arrow re-ordering.
If you really want column order to follow that in the source query, the workaround is to create a new report using the modified query.

Hi,
In a GROUP BY querry, every item in the SELECT list must be one of the following
(1) One of the GROUP BY expressions
(2) An aggregate function
(3) A constant
(4) Deterministic expressions based on the above (for example, COALESCE, where all the arguments are taken from the list above)
So if your scalar sub-query is going to be part of the GROUP BY query, it has to fit into one of those categories
I don't see any good way of convincing the compiler that your scalar sub-query is a constant, even if it happens to rturn a constant value, but you can make it either
(1) one of the GROUP BY expressions (compute it in a sub-query, to avoid repeating the whole scalar sub-query in the GROUP BY clause), or
(2) an aggregate function ( e.g. MAX ((SELECT ...))).
But the scalar sub-query doesn't have to be part of the GROUP BY query. Depending on your tables and the desired results, it might be easy to do the GROUP BY and what is now the scalar sub-query separately, and then join the two result sets.
If you need help, it always helps to post:
(1) The version of Oracle (and any other relevant software) you're using
(2) A little sample data (just enough to show what the problem is) from all the relevant tables
(3) The results you want from that data
(4) Your best attempt so far (formatted) (You posted this, but since it's unformated, it's very hard to read.)
(5) The full error message (if any), including line number
Executable SQL statements (like "CREATE TABLE AS ..." or "INSERT ..." statements) are best for (2).
Formatted tabular output is okay for (3). Type these 6 characters:
{code}
(small letters only, inside curly brackets) before and after formatted text, to preserve spacing.
Simplify the problem if you can. For example, if your real query involves many columns and many join conditions, try to post a similar problem that has few columns and very siomple join conditions, but has the same problem as your real query.

Hi,
We have a query which is working in 10g and giving error "ORA-00979: not a GROUP BY expression" in Oracle11g R2 (11.2.0.3). we have found following two solution to resolve it from the internet.
1)You can Set the hidden parameter “_FIX_CONTROL”=’5520732:OFF’ in the pfile. This parameter disables a given bug number.
2)We can set the parameter optimizer_features_enable to a previous version of Oracle, ’11.1.0.7′
but I am unable to find the side effects of above change, so I need to know:
1)whcih is batter solution
2)what are the possible side effects of both solution.

I see that there are several not needed date to char conversions. I could imaging that they confuse the query merge mechanism. Other than that: try to strip down the query to the smallest posisble set of colum combination. So that you can see where the error comes from.

GROUP BY with parameter - cause error -ORA-00979: not a GROUP BY expression

I generate a query via PreparedStatement. For example:
SELECT when, value FROM test GROUP BY ?;
PrepState.toString(1, "when");
That causing error: ORA-00979: not a GROUP BY expression
My application using query like:
SELECT to_char(data,1), SUM(vlue) as sum FROM test GROUP BY to_char(data, 2);
PrepState.toString(1, "YYYY-MM");
PrepState.toString(2, "YYYY-MM");

Ah. Reproduced in the first chunk of PL/SQL below.
The second chunk is a workaround.
Basically, SQL is parsed by the syntax engine and optimizer to get an execution plan. Then you can have a sequence of "bind, execute, fetch, fetch, fetch..., bind, execute..."
Since you can have multiple binds for a single SQL parse, then the fact that the first set of binds all happen to have the same value doesn't mean the next set will.
The optimizer needs to be 100% sure that the value in the select must always be the same as the value in the group by, so you can't have two separate (and therefore potentially different) bind variable mappings. [Given the right circumstances, the optimizer might do all sorts of tricks, such as using materialized views and function-based indexes.]
Misleadingly, it actually fails on the 'EXECUTE' step of DBMS_SQL rather than the PARSE.

Can someone please assist?Remember the ABC's of GROUP BY:
When you use a GROUP BY clause and/or an aggregate fucntion, then everything in the SELECT clause must be:
(A) an Aggregate function,
(B) one of the "group By" expressions,
(C) a Constant, or
(D) something that Depends entirely on the above. (For example, if you "GROUP BY TRUNC(dt)", you can SELECT "TO_CHAR (TRUNC(dt), 'Mon-DD')").
In your query, pr.stocklevel is none of the above.
The previous respondent show how you can make it one of the "group By" expressions, which is noramlly how you would handle this situation.
Alternatively, you could make it an Aggregate function, like this:
SELECT pl.PRODCODE
, SUM (pl.QUANTITY) AS total_quantity
, MIN (pr.STOCKLEVEL) AS stokclevel
FROM PRODLINE pl
, PRODUCT pr
WHERE pl.PRODCODE = pr.PRODUCTCODE
GROUP BY pl.PRODCODE;

I have a problem with List View Report in mobile application (theme 50 in apex) after updating to apex 4.2.2. I created Report -> List View. I used select from pipelined function in Region Source. Then when page is running and submited three times (or refreshed three times) I get an error:
Error during rendering of region "LIST VIEW".
ORA-01007: variable not in select list
Technical Info (only visible for developers)
is_internal_error: true
apex_error_code: APEX.REGION.UNHANDLED_ERROR
ora_sqlcode: -1007
ora_sqlerrm: ORA-01007: variable not in select list
component.type: APEX_APPLICATION_PAGE_REGIONS
component.id: 21230833903737364557
component.name: LIST VIEW
error_backtrace:
     ORA-06512: at "APEX_040200.WWV_FLOW_DISP_PAGE_PLUGS", line 4613
     ORA-06512: at "APEX_040200.WWV_FLOW_DISP_PAGE_PLUGS", line 3220
I get this error only when I use select from pipelined function in Region Source (for example: "select value1, value2 from table(some_pipelined_function(param1, param2)) ").
You can check it on http://apex.oracle.com/pls/apex/f?p=50591 (login - demo, password - demo).
In this application:
- I created package TAB_TYPES_PKG:
create or replace PACKAGE TAB_TYPES_PKG IS
TYPE cur_rest_r IS RECORD (
    STR_NAME          VARCHAR2(128),
    INFO              VARCHAR2(128)
TYPE cur_rest_t IS TABLE OF cur_rest_r;
END TAB_TYPES_PKG;
- I created pipelined function TEST_FUNC:
create or replace
FUNCTION TEST_FUNC
RETURN TAB_TYPES_PKG.cur_rest_t PIPELINED IS
r_cur_rest TAB_TYPES_PKG.cur_rest_r;
BEGIN
r_cur_rest.STR_NAME := 'ROW 1';
r_cur_rest.INFO := '10';
PIPE ROW (r_cur_rest);
r_cur_rest.STR_NAME := 'ROW 2';
r_cur_rest.INFO := '20';
PIPE ROW (r_cur_rest);
r_cur_rest.STR_NAME := 'ROW 3';
r_cur_rest.INFO := '30';
PIPE ROW (r_cur_rest);
r_cur_rest.STR_NAME := 'ROW 4';
r_cur_rest.INFO := '40';
PIPE ROW (r_cur_rest);
r_cur_rest.STR_NAME := 'ROW 5';
r_cur_rest.INFO := '50';
PIPE ROW (r_cur_rest);
RETURN;
END TEST_FUNC;
- I created List View Report on Page 1:
Region Source:
SELECT str_name,
       info
FROM TABLE (TEST_FUNC)
We can see error ORA-01007 after refresing (or submiting) Page 1 three times or more.
How to fix it?

Hi all
I'm experiencing the same issue. Predictably on every third refresh I receive:
Error
Error during rendering of region "Results".
ORA-01007: variable not in select list

OK
I am running Application Express 4.2.2.00.11 on GlassFish 4 using Apex Listener 2.0.3.221.10.13.
Please note: this works perfectly using a classic report in my desktop application; however, no joy on the mobile side with a list view. I will use a classic report in the interim.
My region source is as follows:
SELECT description AS "DESCRIPTION", reference AS "REFERENCE" FROM TABLE(AUTOCOMPLETE_LIST_VIEW_FNC('RESULTS'))
The procedure:
FUNCTION AUTOCOMPLETE_LIST_VIEW_FNC(
      p_collection_name IN VARCHAR2)
    RETURN list_row_table_type
AS
    v_tab list_row_table_type := list_row_table_type();
BEGIN
    DECLARE
      jsonarray json_list;
      jsonobj json;
      json_clob CLOB;
    BEGIN
      SELECT clob001
      INTO json_clob
      FROM apex_collections
      WHERE collection_name = p_collection_name;
      jsonobj              := json(json_clob);
      jsonarray            := json_ext.get_json_list(jsonobj, 'predictions');
      FOR i IN 1..jsonArray.count
      LOOP
        jsonobj := json(jsonArray.get(i));
        v_tab.extend;
        v_tab(v_tab.LAST) := list_row_type(json_ext.get_string(jsonobj, 'description'), json_ext.get_string(jsonobj, 'reference'));
      END LOOP;
      RETURN(v_tab);
    END;
END AUTOCOMPLETE_LIST_VIEW_FNC;
Thanks!

Java.sql.SQLException: ORA-00979: not a GROUP BY expression in a query

I am getting java.sql.SQLException: ORA-00979: not a GROUP BY expression
when I run
select count(*) from ( select count(rec_no) AS REC_NO_NUM,created_by AS
CREATED_BY,to_char(created_dt,'Mon YYYY') AS CREATED_DT,to_date(to_char(created_dt,'Mon
YYYY'),'Mon YYYY') AS CREATED_DATE from tbl_ndr_renal_reg where reg_no is not null and delete_ind
= 'N' group by to_char(created_dt,'Mon YYYY'),created_by )
But when I run the subquery below it doesn't give any error and returns rows.
select count(rec_no) AS REC_NO_NUM,created_by AS CREATED_BY,to_char(created_dt,'Mon YYYY') AS
CREATED_DT, to_date(to_char(created_dt,'Mon YYYY'),'Mon YYYY') AS CREATED_DATE from
tbl_ndr_renal_reg where reg_no is not null and delete_ind = 'N' group by to_char(created_dt,'Mon
YYYY'),created_by
Thanks

I tried that too still getting the same error

Getting "ORA-00979: not a GROUP BY expression" error in Inline query

Hello all,
The following query when run in SCOTT user gives "ORA-00979: not a GROUP BY expression" error.
If I remove the TRUNC function from the outer query's group by clause, then it fetches
(My actual query is something similar to the following query. I have given emp, dept tables for convenience's sake)
select e.empno,e.ename, AVG(e.SAL), trunc(e.hiredate),
(select sum(sal) from emp
where hiredate = e.hiredate) salary
from emp e
group by e.DEPTNO,e.EMPNO,e.ENAME, trunc(e.hiredate)
Pls suggest how this error can be avoided.
Regards,
Sam

Why not this?
