ORA-06502: PL/SQL :character string buffer too small
Dear Sir,
Hi, in htmldb I am trying to create package body, but when I select the package name which I already have the specification part for it, and click next I got this error.
what should I do please help thanks
What do you mean "execute the package"?
Your parenthetical suggests that you want to compile the package body in the SQL Commands window. If that is the case, just type all that code in there and click the Run button (everything from "create or replace up to but not necessarily including the slash ('/') after the last "end" statement.
If you mean "execute" then you can run any of the functions or procedures in the package (after it is compiled) in the SQL Commands window using PL/SQL anonymous blocks.

"Character string buffer too small" in translated application
Recently upgraded to Apex 3.1
After translating an aplications to arabic something strange happened!
ALL the report regions are showing error:

ORA-06502 (character string buffer too small) on import application via script
Running apex 4.2.2.00.11
oracle 10.2.0.5
I'm using a script to import my development application to a few production applications.
It worked great on apex 4.1.1, but now I get an 'ORA-06502 PL/SQL numeric of value error: character string buffer too small'
In the command window, I see that the script fails after it starts on the plugins.
My question: is this a bug in 4.2.2?
I could be a incompatible plugin, but how can I found out which plugin?
My script is quite simple:
In a command window I run
sqlplus SCHEMA/PASSWORD@SPIEU10 @_IMPORT_F102.sql
The script is
declare

select workspace_id into l_workspace_id from apex_workspaces where workspace = 'BY_APEX_SHARED';
-- set the context for the target workspace

Report error:ORA-06502:character string buffer too small. urgent!!
Hi guys,
My APEX version is 3.0.1.00.08, my application run on my test environment, but on PROD environment, it raised the error:
report error:
ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: character string buffer too small
In this page, on the left is a tree, the right side is a tabular form, when I click one tree node, it will pass the current node id to the form and the form will display the children data. When I click some tree node, it will raise the ORA-06502 error, but when click some other nodes, it is correct. I don't know why. And on my test environment, it has no this error, the test environment has same version with prod environment, only has less data in database. Could you help me???
I searched in forum, someone says it's LOV problem, if it's LOV problem, all the nodes should have error, why click some nodes are ok?
Thanks !
JessicaI don't think it is related only to the number of rows but also to the content of the rows. So, counting only the number of rows doesn't say anything about if it is going to work or not. My question: can't you filter those entries? Making a choice between 250 entries in a tabular form isn't a simple task. Using popup-key LOV instead would also be a solution. However, if you use popup-key LOV be aware of the fact that you need two index numbers for those.

WWV_FLOW_WORKSHEET_CONDITIONS - ORA-06502 character string buffer too small
Hi,
I am currently working on a application that can upload CSV files inside many tables. Since I hate reinventing the wheels, I have decided to reverse engineer APEX and APEX APIs that are used by the SQL Workshop to upload CSV files to a single table. Since this feature was tested many times by many developers around the world, I know I can trust the code. If in a future release of APEX those packages are modified, I'll have to update my abstraction layer to call my own packages instead of APEX packages. (This is not an issue for our team.)
First Step
Use apex_040000.wwv_flow_load_data.create_csv_collection to create an apex collection with the first 20 rows of the csv file. At this step, we can validate the format of a sample of the file without loading all rows of the csv file.
Second Step
Use apex_040000.wwv_flow_load_data.load_csv_data to upload all rows of the csv file inside a table.
Third Step
Do whatever you want with the data inside the table. (i.e.: Send the data into multiple tables...)
Here's my problem..._
After the first or second steps, I display the data using interactive reports. I want to highlight every cells containing "invalid" data. I use apex_040000.wwv_flow_worksheet_api.add_or_update_highlight. When I have too many invalid cells, the IR doesn't show at run time, and you can see ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: character string buffer too small on the page.
I would like to know the limitations of IR using the table WWV_FLOW_WORKSHEET_CONDITIONS. Is there a way to create many highlight conditions inside a single row of WWV_FLOW_WORKSHEET_CONDITIONS ? I want to find the best approach to add hundreds of conditions.
Thanks

ORA-0605: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: character string buffer too small
I get this error on two function activities in a workflow of mine. I don't even get into the pl/sql procedure call.
The exact error is:
Error Name -6502
Error Message: ORA-0605: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: character string buffer too small
Error Stack: @#@Wf_Engine_Util.Function_Call(MY_PACKAGE.MY_PROC, ITEM_TYPE, ITEM_KEY, 6519, RUN)
If I retry the step (expedite -> retry) it runs until it hits the second function which does the same thing (there is a function in between the two functions that do not have any issues). I then have to retry that step as well. Any ideas?
This seems similar to the following issue that does not have a resolution posted:
ORA-06502 PL/SQL numeric or value error in wf process
I've tried commenting out the bodies of the procedures called but that does not help (again -- im not getting into the bodies but im not sure what else it could be).
Any ideas or suggestions?Hi,
Does this happen on every instance of the process, or just a few?
Are these activities in the middle, or right at the start of the flow?
Are any other activities being performed correctly first? If so, are these standard or bespoke?
My inclination would be that there is some kind of variable that is being populated (or concatenated onto), which is growing too big. When the process errors, it gets cleared, which is why an expedite would move the activity on.

Listener Error - character string buffer too small (ORA-06502)
I am running into a very strange problem with the APEX listener on seemingly random pages. I can hit every page in my application just fine, but as soon as I hit this specific one, Glassfish throws an HTTP 500 error. If I click Debug, the page seems to load fine with no indications of trouble, but as soon as I turn debug back off, it goes back to the HTTP 500 error. I don't see anything special about the page that makes this happen. It is pretty simple and has 4 regions. I have noticed that if I set any 1 of the 4 regions to "Never display", the page loads fine. It's like having all 4 of them enabled at once are causing some overload, even though it's actually a smaller amount of data than most of my other pages.
**Update: I just discovered this only happens if I'm logged into the workspace first and then try to run the page! If I log out of APEX and then hit the application as a normal user, page loads error-free. This is still an annoying problem, but at least it seems I have a decent workaround since regular users never see it.
After a couple days, I noticed the exact same problem on a second APEX application I'm using. Again, it is on some random page whereas all the other pages work fine.
Both applications and pages in question worked without issue in APEX 3.x. I am trying to get an APEX application up and running on the latest version.
I have tried both Glassfish server and simply downloading the latest listener (version 1.1.1) and running it in standalone mode. I get the problem both ways, which is why it seems it's a listener issue.
I have seen a few other threads of people having this problem, but I never did find anyone with a solution, and most of the posts stopped back in December.
Some details on my environment:
Database version: Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.2.0.3.0 - 64bi
APEX version: 4.0.2
Webserver: Glassfish 3.1
Here is the log entry from Glassfish when the HTTP 500 error displays as I try to load one of the bugged pages.

Edited by: BrianB on May 11, 2011 7:50 AM
Edited by: BrianB on May 11, 2011 8:01 AMBrian,
this post is going to get a bit longer, so the summary comes first.
h6. Summary
1. I could reproduce the problem on my system using the APEX Listener in standalone mode.
2. I don't think the problem is content-related in the sense that you have any issue in your page or database contents.
3. I have a workaround for your problem.
h6. Error message
Having that error in my environment made me start to think. I not only disabled some item and got it work, but I could also add something to achieve this effect.
So I came to think, this really is somewhere deep down. The error message doesn't seem very helpful on first sight, but when starting to follow on what's happening there, things get clearer:
APEX generates pages dynamically, replacing substitution strings and other tokens to get the actual page definition. This has to be read by a requesting client. The use of VARCHAR2 as buffer introduces a limit of 32767 bytes, after which the contents is handled as CLOB instead.
h6. Analysis
Obviously, there are cases where the "estimation" fails. Of course, this is may only be relevant in rare cases, because:
1. If a page would exceed the maximum without some charset interpretation problem, the buffer would be switched to clob.
2. If a page stays small enough to stay below 32767 even with some characters that are acutally larger then expected, the buffer isn't busted.
To find out, if your could be one of these rare cases, I investigated the HTTP headers, focussing on X-DB-Content-length and made an odd observation.
Test case 1: "Go" button disabled, so the page runs fine with APEX Listener
1. It has *31968 bytes* when coming from APEX Listener with a Go button disabled.
2. It has *31938 bytes* according to the header set by EPG - for exactly the same page.
That makes a difference of 30 bytes for what is expected to be the same contents.
Test case 2: The button is enabled again
1. This causes the page load to crash in APEX Listener.
2. EPG transports *32341 bytes* according to that header.
So we are pretty close to the hard limit for the VARCHAR2 buffer.
For some reason, APEX Listener seems to cause a false calculation of the actual page size. Whether this is due to some charset problem or due to some other problem with response handling, I don't know. The 30 bytes difference may result from the odd header "X-ORACLE-IGNORE" with value "IGNORE, IGNORE, IGNORE, IGNORE" sent by the APEX Listener. This value has exactly 30 bytes in length, but this could be coincidence, as there are more differences in headers. If I add the size of all headers, we are even closer to the buffer limit and probably exceed it when some items need more bytes than expected.
This could even be as simple as a line break, as your page has about 424 lines when I disabled the button... Adding 1 byte per line to the 32341 bytes of the EPG, I get 32765 bytes. Now add that button (403 bytes difference on EPG) and you exceeed the limit. Reduce that value by the line count again and you are still below.
Could be coincidence as well, but makes me wonder.
h6. Workaround
To make sure that we were actually hitting that limit, I now introduce my suggestion for a workaround.
Test case 3: Add a hidden item
1. APEX Listener loads the page, stating the size to be *32876 bytes*
2. EPG sees 30 bytes less and transmits the header with *32846 bytes*
h6. Conclusion
I can't give you a real solution for that problem, nor do I have a definitive answer on what is the root cause for it. It seems, only one of the developers may find it. But I can offer you a workaround, which is to just add some hidden item to your page so it exceeds the limit for the VARCHAR2 buffer and gets handled as clob.
Note that this may occur outside the app builder as well. The app builder just renders some additional items when starting that page, so it has a different size from its productive representation. On the other hand, I may start counting the size of that additional page section - I wouldn't wonder if that results in a value around 400 bytes, and this is the forgotten part...
Unfortunately, if it actually is happening outside of the app builder, this workaround isn't very handy: Dynamic contents can't be calculated that easy all the time, so you may have cases where you just don't know in advance if you are close to the limit and have to add some item to exceed it or if you've already exceeded it or if you are far below, or close enough to actually hit it when adding just one byte...

ORA-06502 character string buffer too small error
We trying to insert a string of more then 500 character from our VB.net application (uses ODP.net), its giving ORA-06502 character string buffer too small error.
Kindly help us on this.
OS version: AIX 5.1 (IBM/AIX RISC System/6000)
Oracle Database version: 9.2.0.1.0Just for reference and to close the loop, I found the fix to this problem (quite by accident).
The problem turned out to be a bug in the apex listener, which in some cases ended up doing a divide by zero, which caused the problem.
This is listed as a known bug, and a fixed listener is available.
Once I installed the fixed listener, problem solved! -

am getting error
ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: character string buffer too small
please help me in this regard. unable to trace the issue.
Thanks in advance
Regards,
rajThe error message should have included a line number for you to reference back to your code to know what line the error was occurring on.
That said, look at the documentation for SUBSTR as you are using the third parm incorrectly. It is length, not end position. That's your issue. -
OLAP -- ORA-6502: numeric or value error: character string buffer too small
Hi all,
We got installed Oracle 9201. After applying the patch #2761332 (to upgrade up to 9203)
and interim patch #2897078 (9203 Patch 1) we always get OLAP Catalog invalid.
I've tried to mend this problem by doing all it is said in Notes 23268.1 & 226443.1 but
my effort was worthless. OLAP catalog is still invalid though BI_Checkconfig says is okay at all.
Nevertheless, we can create dimensions, cubes and measures well, but other problem arises when
I try to add a dimension to a cube issuing the following command:
cwm2_olap_cube.add_dimension_to_cube( owner, NAME, owner, DIM_NAME);
ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: character string buffer too small
ORA-06512: at "OLAPSYS.CWM2_OLAP_MANAGER", line 380
ORA-06512: at "OLAPSYS.CWM2_OLAP_MANAGER", line 397
ORA-06512: at "OLAPSYS.CWM2_OLAP_CUBE", line 281
Paying attention to other metalink/otn threads about this subject we found similar problems with
Oracle 9203 in Japanese (keeping in mind we use Oracle in Spanish).
Any patch we can apply? Any ideas? Your comments are welcome ...
Thanks in advanced !!
[email protected]We have fixed the problem !!! :-DDD
Thanks to all Oracle analysts who replied this issue.

Edited by: k_17 on Oct 13, 2011 12:07 PMHi Helios,
Many thanks for your reply.
I am able to figure out the issue. In the code we have
l_analysis_report := l_analysis_report ||'<tr><td align="center">'|| curr_refresh.analysis_name
|| '</td><td align="center">' || curr_refresh.start_time || '</td><td align="center">'
|| curr_refresh.end_time || '</td><td align="center">'|| curr_refresh.RUN_TIME_SECS ||
'</td><td align="center">'|| curr_refresh.status ||
'</td> </tr>' || UTL_TCP.CRLF;
exit when length (l_analysis_report) > 32500;where "l_analysis_report VARCHAR2(32767);"
The issue is report has more characters, and when executing it throws the error " ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: character string buffer too small ".
Can you please let me know how to have more characters/data in the report. Will CLOB help if yes, please let me know how to use it.
Kindly suggest some options.
Regards,

Any thoughts?
