ORA-04091: table is mutating, trigger/function may not see

Hello All,
I am not an expert in oracle and I have been facing a problem where I get a message as follows :
ORA-04091: table <table> is mutating, trigger/function may not see it
I have a table tab1 which has ID, name, and some other columns. the rows in this table form a parent-child type relationship based on some columns within that table. I have created another table called relationship table. The relationship table has 2 columns ID and parentID. I keep this table up to date using triggers. For example if a new record is inserted or upadted in tab1 which affects the parent - child relationship, i update the relationship table accordingly using an insert / update trigger and it works fine.
I created another trigger as follows
create or replace trigger MY_DELETE_TRIGGER
after delete on tab1
for each row
BEGIN
update relationships a set a.parentID = null where a.parentID = :OLD.ID;
delete from relationships a where a.id = :OLD.ID;
END MY_DELETE_TRIGGER;
Basically what I am doing is, the record once deleted, if it was parent of anybody else, i am setting the parent as null and the record itself, if it was in the relationships as a child, I am removing that row.
This is when I get the table is mutating error, and I don't know how to fix it.
Can anybody please help me,
Thanks in advance

Tad,
I believe you're performing SELECT on the triggering table in the PL/SQL block. In simple words, you're trying to change the information of a table the TRIGGER is created for and you're trying to read data from the same table.
I suggest that you use PL/SQL pragma autonomous_transaction to resolve this, for as per Oracle documentation "The AUTONOMOUS_TRANSACTION pragma instructs the PL/SQL compiler to mark a routine as autonomous (independent). An autonomous transaction is an independent transaction started by another transaction, the main transaction. Autonomous transactions let you suspend the main transaction, do SQL operations, commit or roll back those operations, then resume the main transaction."
Furthermore, you can also refer to the following discussion by Thomas Kyte for further understanding of mutating tables:

Hope this helps.

And do you have a trigger on the GROUP_LIST table that calls you function that queries the GROUP_LIST table?
The solution is simple: DON'T DO THAT!
See Trigger Restrictions on Mutating Tables in the SQL Language doc
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/B28359_01/appdev.111/b28370/triggers.htm#g1699708
Trigger Restrictions on Mutating Tables
A mutating table is a table that is being modified by an UPDATE, DELETE, or INSERT statement, or a table that might be updated by the effects of a DELETE CASCADE constraint.
The session that issued the triggering statement cannot query or modify a mutating table. This restriction prevents a trigger from seeing an inconsistent set of data.
This restriction applies to all triggers that use the FOR EACH ROW clause. Views being modified in INSTEAD OF triggers are not considered mutating.
When a trigger encounters a mutating table, a run-time error occurs, the effects of the trigger body and triggering statement are rolled back, and control is returned to the user or application. (You can use compound triggers to avoid the mutating-table error. For more information, see Using Compound Triggers to Avoid Mutating-Table Error.)
Consider the following trigger:
CREATE OR REPLACE TRIGGER Emp_count

Table is mutating, trigger/function may not see it

Hi,
I have been trying to get a trigger to execute a stored procedure when an update is made to a row in a table.
The procedure works when ran manually and the trigger compiles but when the trigger is fired I get a "table is mutating, trigger/function may not see it" error.
Here's a bit more background:
I have a product table where the cost of a product is calculate based on costs in other tables (e.g. cost of raw materials is in the suppliesrawmat table).
I have written a procedure (called proc_costcalc) which takes in a productID and updates that product's cost in the product table.
I want a trigger to do this for every affected product when a rawmaterial cost is changed.
The code of my trigger is:
CREATE OR REPLACE trigger trig_rawcostupdate
AFTER INSERT OR UPDATE ON suppliesrawmat FOR EACH ROW
DECLARE
     cursor c1 is
     SELECT p.prodid
     FROM process p,
          (SELECT s.processid
          FROM stage s,
               (SELECT stageno
               FROM stagerawmat
               WHERE prodid = :new.prodid) subquery0
          WHERE s.stageno = subquery0.stageno) subquery1
     WHERE p.processid = subquery1.processid;
BEGIN
     FOR tuple in c1
     LOOP
          proc_costcalc(tuple.prodid);
     END LOOP;
END;
The query for the cursor generates a list of productIDs which I need to run through the proc_costcalc procedure.
Can anyone show me where I am going wrong? How can I fix this?
Thanks
Keith

I'm afraid I'm still not getting this.
Suppose I have 4 tables (product, madefrom, rawmat and suppliesrawmat).
Product (productid, cost)
Madefrom (productid, rawmatid)
Rawmat (rawmatid)
Suppliesrawmat (supplierid, rawmatid, cost)
The cost of a product should be the sum cost of all rawmaterials it is made from where the cheapest supply cost of that material is used.
What I want to do is update the cost of a product when the cost of a raw material used in its production changes.
My earlier attempt was to have a procedure which when given a productid updates the price of that product. However, when trying to call this procedure from an update on the suppliesrawmat table I recieved the table is mutating error. I now understand why (thanks to everyone for that) but I still don't really know how to rectify the problem.
How should I be doing this?
Thanks again
Keith

ORA-04091: table AM is mutating, trigger/function may not see it

I create this trigger:
CREATE OR REPLACE TRIGGER pr_test
after insert ON AM
FOR EACH ROW
declare
appo_pr varchar2(64):= null;
BEGIN
select name
into appo_pr
from AS
where AS_ID=:new.AS_ID;
insert into AM (name) values (appo_pr);
END pr_test;
I insert before a new AS_ID and name in tab AS but when I insert a new record in tab AM I get this error:
ORA-04091: table AM is mutating, trigger/function may not see it
ORA-06512: at PR_TEST", line 11
ORA-04088: error during execution of trigger PR_TEST'
I'd like to create a trigger that when I insert a new record in AM It verify the value in col name of AS and insert this value in col name of AM.
What I wrong in this trigger??
How can I modify it??
Thanks
Raf

Try this:
CREATE OR REPLACE TRIGGER pr_test
before insert ON AM
FOR EACH ROW
declare
appo_pr AS.name%TYPE;
BEGIN
select name
into appo_pr
from AS
where AS_ID = :new.AS_ID;
:new.name = appo_pr;
END pr_test;

ORA-04091:table XYZ is mutating,trigger/function may not see it ORA-06512

Hi everybody
i am facing mutating problem during data deletion fron XYZ table as
ORA-04091:table XYZ is mutating,trigger/function may not see it ORA-06512 at "user.procdure_name",line 39 ORA-065
i have table XYZ and have database trigger on this table
and also have procedure "user.abc" in this procedure m selecting data from xyz table

You didn't post the actual code. I was more interested in seeing table name and the trigger body.
Anyways, mutation problem comes when you refer the same table on the trigger, on which it is based for some data manipulation on that table.
For e.g, If inside your trigger body, you are doing INSERT on the same table, then it'll definitely result in mutation problem because this trigger will be fired endlessly (as it is after insert trigger).
Please mark answer as helpful / correct, if it helps you

ORA-04091: table name is mutating, trigger/function may not see it

Hi,
I have a row level before update trigger written on a table A which calls a procedure to undergo some processing. Procedure has some select queries against table A and it inturn causes the following error.
ORA-04091: table name is mutating, trigger/function may not see it
To overcome this I have used a combination of PL/SQL collection types (nested tables based on the following definition TYPE t_table_a is table of A.colname%TYPE index by binary_integer;), a row level before update trigger and statement level after update trigger. The mutating problem is fixed, but to update one row of data it took around 3 min and I am wondering if its the problem with PL/SQL tables I have used.
In before update trigger I am storing the unique id's which needs to be updated into the PL/SQL table and in the after update trigger I am looping through the PL/SQL table and peforming the rest of the processing by calling in the procedure.
Can anyone help how to minimize the run time of this process or if any other better solution exists?
Thanks for the help

Triggers raise the mutating table issue, because else they could be used to create endless loops. If you work around the mutating table issue, then you should make sure not to create an endless loop yourself. This would be possible.
You description also seems to imply something like this.
Without code it is impossible to say something specific.
- Do you initialize your collection in a before statement trigger?
- Is your looping mechanism somehow broken?
- Do you update the same table again and again and again?

ORA-04091: table ... is mutating, trigger/function may not see it

Hi,
I keep getting this error message for my trigger when performing an
insert..select statement (standard plain old insert works):
ORA-04091: table ... is mutating, trigger/function may not see it
The trigger is as follows:
CREATE OR REPLACE TRIGGER MYTABLE_BEF_INS_CHECK
BEFORE INSERT ON MYTABLE
DECLARE
v_o_id number(10);
BEGIN
IF :new.TYP = 'O' THEN
SELECT 1
     INTO v_o_id
     FROM MYTABLE WHERE TYP = 'O' AND ID=:new.ID;
END IF;
END;
The thing is the trigger works fine for a standard insert like:
insert into MYTABLE( id,typ)
values(426672,'O')
No problem the above works. But when I try an insert select..it
fails.
insert into MYTABLE( id,typ)
SELECT x_id, 'O' from AnyOtherTable;
the above will fail.
Anyone an idea why this is the case??
thx.

Hi,
OK OK !!!! This was a copy/paste error. FOR EACH ROW was just not pasted here. Full trigger again:
CREATE OR REPLACE TRIGGER MYTABLE_BEF_INS_CHECK
BEFORE INSERT ON MYTABLE
for each row
DECLARE
v_o_id number(10);
BEGIN
IF :new.TYP = 'O' THEN
SELECT 1
     INTO v_o_id
     FROM MYTABLE WHERE TYP = 'O' AND ID=:new.ID;
END IF;
END;
But I want to know why I DO NOT get this problem with the standard insert statement but only with the insert...select.
thx.

I got data when I select from this function

SQL, PL/SQL functions, and ORA-04091 table is mutating

Dears,
Recently a question came up in an Oracle French forum about an insert/select that is throwing ORA-04091: table xxxx is mutating, trigger/function may not see it error in 11g while the same insert/select was working very well in 10g. The original poster gave a scenario that is easily reproducible. I am wondering what database release is correct the one throwing the error(11g) or the other one accepting the insert/select(10g)?

ORA-06512: at "MOHAMED.F_READ_CONSISTENCY_TAB", line 7 In addition, one of the posters spotted out very judiciously that if we slightly change the definition of the table t_read_consistency in 11g, strangely the insert/select will work correctly in this data base as shown below:
ohamed@mhouri> drop table tr_read_consistency;
Table dropped.
mohamed@mhouri> create table tr_read_consistency
2      as select rownum rn,
3                trs.*
4      from
5         t_read_consistency trs;
Table created.
mohamed@mhouri> insert into tr_read_consistency

3              select rownum, id,vc
4           from table(f_read_consistency_tab);
10 rows created.So is this a regression? or a corrected bug during upgrade?
Thanks in advance

SQL>So, you have to add only PRAGMA AUTONOMOUS_TRANSACTION; before begin in your function code to avoid ORA-04091 in 11.2.0.1
But, All thanks to Tubby who pointed us to the correct documentation link.
