ORA-06502: when creating a index

Hi,
i'm trying to create an index on a partitionned table, but i'm getting this error :
CREATE INDEX IDX_NDI_WTSCDRHISTO ON WTS_CDRHISTO(SUBSTR(NDI, GREATEST(LENGTH(NDI)-8,1))) Compress Local (

PARALLEL 16;
the error code is : ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: character string buffer too small ???!!!!!!
Anyone can help me ?
Thks in advance

Post the section of code that is causing problem along with statements before and after the section as well.
For now, I can take a guess that you are trying to assign this entire statement as a string to a character variable. If so, then that variable length definition is too small to hold this entire string. In PL/SQL you can define VARCHAR2 to a maximum of 32767.

Got error ORA-06502 when creating a report page

Hi,
I got ORA-06502 error message when trying to create a report page using one particular query (see below). It happened in the 'SQL Query' step. After put query in the text box and click on 'Next' button, the error message read
ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: character string buffer too small
Exactly same query running in sqlplus session against same database and same schema can run thru fine.
I wonder if anybody can give me a pointer what could be wrong with the query, and how to debug.

ORA-06502 when trying to create a web service reference

Hi,
I want to create a reference to mail a report from BI Publisher.
Apparently the e-mail option is no longer available in the v2 webservices so I tried to create a web service reference to:
.../xmlpserver/services/PublicReportService?wsdl
I had no problems creating references to the v2 web services however I don't manage to create a reference for this WSDL.
The last step gives me:
ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: character to number conversion error
Thanks for tips or advice.
Other workarounds to email a report are welcome as well. I tried to use the v2 webservices runReport & scheduleReport before but they don't seem to support this.
Thanks!

Okay, so email is available in the v2 webservices I found out. (despite stated in many blogpost it is not)
--- ScheduleService
If you're going to use it to send emails you need to create your webservice manually. Otherwise it will not work as the scheduleReport also can print, fax or save your report to webdav and you will need to remove these elements from you soapenveloppe to get it to work.
This is not possible with the services created using the WSDL wizard.

Error when creating spatial index in 10g

Hello.
I have a problen when I try to create a spatial index. The strange thing is that the same commands always works fine in some machines, but if always fails in others. I tryed in diferent versiones of Oracle, but I have the error in al of them. The versions I have tryed are:
- 10.2.0.1
- 10.2.0.4
The operating systems are:
Windows XP professional 32 bits
Windows 2003 Server 32 bits
These are the steps i make:
1) Create a Table with a SDO_GEOMETRY column (GEOMETRY)
2) Load data with SQLLDR (I hve tryed different SRID's, and all fail)
So far everything is ok
3) Create the INDEX
When I execute the CREATE INDEX command CREATE INDEX MADRID_SX ON MADRID (GEOMETRY) INDEXTYPE IS MDSYS.SPATIAL_INDEX;
I obtain the error:
ERROR en linea 1:+
ORA-29855: se ha producido un error en la ejecucion de la rutina+
ODCIINDEXCREATE+
ORA-13282: fallo al inicializar la transformacion de coordenadas+
ORA-06512: en "MDSYS.SDO_INDEX_METHOD_10I", line 10+
I too have noticed that if I execute the next command, I have an error:
SELECT MDSYS.sdo_cs.transform(sdo_geometry(2001,8192,sdo_point_type(13.6,52.4,null),null,null),25830) from dual;
ERROR en linea 1:+
ORA-13282: fallo al inicializar la transformacion de coordenadas+

ORA-06512: en "MDSYS.SDO_CS", linea 112+
ORA-06512: en "MDSYS.SDO_CS", linea 2678+
And if I execute the next command, I too have another error:
SELECT SDO_CS.VALIDATE_WKT(25830) FROM DUAL;
FALSE (169)*
Any ideas? Could it be related with something inside the machines, user privileges, etc.?
Thanks in advance.

I have found that the problem is to use a SRID of AUTH_NAME column in MDSYS.CS_SRS table without the value "Oracle." in it.
If I use an Oracle’s SRID, everything works fine. If I use an EPSG’s SRID, fails.
For example, this command uses an Oracle SRID (8192) and one from the EPSG (25830), and fails:
SELECT MDSYS.sdo_cs.transform(sdo_geometry(2001,8192,sdo_point_type(13.6,52.4,null),null,null),25830) from dual;
ERROR en linea 1:
ORA-13282: fallo al inicializar la transformacion de coordenadas
ORA-06512: en "MDSYS.SDO_CS", linea 79
ORA-06512: en "MDSYS.SDO_CS", linea 116
ORA-06512: en "MDSYS.SDO_CS", linea 2690
However, if I use two Oracle SRID (8192 and 83030), it works.
SELECT MDSYS.sdo_cs.transform(sdo_geometry(2001,8192,sdo_point_type(13.6,52.4,null),null,null),83030) from dual;
SDO_GEOMETRY(2001, 83030, SDO_POINT_TYPE(1625183.71, 5936269.06, NULL), NULL, NULL
Therefore, the problem seems to be to use a non Oracle SRID.

ORA-06502 when calling from a procedure

HI,
I have a procedure(p1) inside a package that queries a table and send out the result based on the input paramater value. OUT variable is of same type as the table column(using %type), column size is varchar2(4000). This procedure is called from another procedure(p2) and sends out the result to Java Page to display the results at front-end.
Problem is when application runs and p1 is called I get the following error message,
ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: character string buffer too small
Length/size of the character string queried from table is _1747_ that is within the limit of 4000 chars. If I limit the output to just 500 using substr, I don't get any error but adding a single character startes throwing error. OUT variable in both p1 and p2 are declared as table.column%type and error comes from p1 only as confirmed by the error log.
When I call p1 or p2 from a declare block, I don't get any error.
This has really confused me and I am not able to find any reason for this difference in behaviour.
Request to help me in understanding what could be the issue here.
Oracle version used is Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.2.0.4.0 - 64bit
-Thanks in Advance.

Numeric character problems when creating spatial index

Hi,
We have run into a problem when trying to create spatial indexes. The problem seems to be that an mdsys-procedure tries to use a number with a comma as decimal symbol in an update statement
Error message:
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-29855: error occurred in the execution of ODCIINDEXCREATE routine
ORA-13249: internal error in Spatial index: [mdidxrbd]

ORA-06512: at line 1
ORA-06512: at "MDSYS.SDO_INDEX_METHOD_9I", line 7
ORA-06512: at line 1
Our problem seems to be identical to the one discussed in this thread: create RTREE falied on 9.2.0.4
Regional settings, language versions etc:
Client:
OS: Windows 2000
Regional options (OS): Swedish, Sweden
Sqlplus (console and windows versions): v 9.2.0.1.0
Registry: NLS_LANG =SWEDISH_SWEDEN.WE8MSWIN1252
Server:
OS: Windows Server 2003
Regional options (OS): Swedish, Sweden
Oracle: v 9.2.0.3.0
Registry: NLS_LANG =SWEDISH_SWEDEN.WE8MSWIN1252
We have also tried building the indexes after overriding these settings by setting the environment variables NLS_LANG=AMERICAN_AMERICA.WE8ISO8859P1 on both the client- and the server computer. This gives exactly the same error. We have tried setting NLS_NUMERIC_CHARACTERS to '.,' instead of ',.', but this does not help either.
We haven't tried changing the NLS_LANG registry entry on the server, because this is a production server at a customer's site that hosts several other databases, so we would prefer not to have to restart it if we can avoid it. However, as we understand it, the environment variable NLS_LANG should override the registry setting anyway, right?
We first experienced the problem when trying to build indexes on imported data. To verify that the problem was not with the data, we wrote a simple test script that:
1)Creates a table
2)Creates metadata
3)Inserts a simple geometry
4)Tries to create an index
The error message above is from running this script. We have verified that the script
works ok on another database server.
Below are the values of some of the language parameters right before running the script
(we have tried many other settings with the same result).
parameter...........................db................................instance...............session
NLS_CHARACTERSET.......WE8MSWIN1252..................................................
NLS_LANGUAGE...............AMERICAN...................AMERICAN...........AMERICAN
NLS_NCHAR_CH...............AL16UTF16 ..........................................................
NLS_NCHAR_CONV... ......FALSE..........................FALSE..................FALSE..
NLS_NUMERIC_CH...---------.,---------------------------------------------------------------.,
NLS_TERRITORY..............AMERICA......................AMERICA..............AMERICA
The guy who started the thread referenced above solved the problem, but we haven't been able to get it working by changing registry entries and session parameters.
The question is: Which setting will make the number in 'set sdo_rtree_quality = 1,00000000...' be generated with a . instead of a , as decimal symbol?

Ok, so here is my plan to solve this:
1) Change the default user locale (the language under "standards and formats") to English for the account under which the Oracle server runs.
2) Reboot (or is there an easier way to make Oracle reload the settings?)
This should make the index creation work. It may break something else however, so to avoid this I can set the user locale back to Swedish afterwards .
You can subsequently change the setting and update the sdo_rtree_quality in
the metadata and it should work fine. Do you mean I have to update the sdo_rtree_quality in some way to make it work after I have changed the default user locale back to Swedish? How do I do this?
Thanks a million both of you!

ORA-06502 when searching region source

The following is listed as a limitation of Apex 3.1, for both interactive reports and the application builder, although the specific context is not mentioned.
The row length limit is 32k (just as with Classic Reports). You can include more columns but if too many are selected to be displayed, the user will get the following error - "ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: character string buffer too small". This should be considered when creating your report.You can find that here: http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/application_express/html/3.1_known_issues.html
I'm getting this very error when trying to search region source for one of my application items. Presumably the region source is larger than the 32k limit where my particular page item is being used?
Can anyone from Oracle verify that this is still a problem in Apex 3.2.0.00.27?

ORA-06502 When using MAX(Column) with %TYPE

Hi Guys,
Just had this discussion on the main database forums, and the problem was somewhat resolved. But they did ask me to check here if this was a known issue.
Assuming I have a table defined as follows
CREATE TABLE TEST_TABLE (TEST_COLUMN CHAR(8 BYTE)) ;and the table only has a single record NZ07100S
We also define a function as
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION
FUNCTION GETTESTVALUE
RETURN TEST_TABLE.TEST_COLUMN%TYPE
IS
TEST_VALUE TEST_TABLE.TEST_COLUMN%TYPE;
BEGIN
SELECT MAX(TEST_COLUMN) INTO TEST_VALUE FROM TEST_TABLE;
RETURN TEST_VALUE;
END;We ran the following command
SELECT GETTESTVALUE FROM DUAL;and receive an error as follows
Error report:
SQL Error: ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: character string buffer too small
ORA-06512: at "GETTESTVALUE", line 6
06502. 00000 - "PL/SQL: numeric or value error%s"However, if were to modify the function to the following
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION
FUNCTION GETTESTVALUE
RETURN TEST_TABLE.TEST_COLUMN%TYPE
IS
TEST_VALUE TEST_TABLE.TEST_COLUMN%TYPE;
BEGIN
SELECT TEST_COLUMN INTO TEST_VALUE FROM TEST_TABLE;
RETURN TEST_VALUE;
END;There is no error reported and the value NZ07100S is returned.
Of course, when we modified the function to be
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION
FUNCTION GETTESTVALUE
RETURN TEST_TABLE.TEST_COLUMN%TYPE
IS
TEST_VALUE TEST_TABLE.TEST_COLUMN%TYPE;
BEGIN
SELECT CAST(MAX(TEST_COLUMN) AS CHAR(8))INTO TEST_VALUE FROM TEST_TABLE;
RETURN TEST_VALUE;
END;No errors are reported, and the value is returned
Some of the guys in the main forums tried this out on Enterprise edition and did not encounter any issues. To faciliate their testing, I spooled the sqlsplus output and it is as follows

Hi Jega,
thank you for your post.
Don't know is this issue XE release specific issue or 10.2.0.1 generally?

ORA-29855 - Error creating Spatial Index using a Stored Procedure

The tables that i am passing are registered in metadata and I am able to create indexes directly in sql plus. But when i try to create using this stored procedure, it fails.
it should be possible to create indexes using a generic function. Has any faced a similar problem?

Hi,
I am having a same error on Oracle 10gR2 database. When I execute the same statement in sqlplus, it works. But it gives this error when I call the procedure which has this create spatial index statement.

Errors when creating spatial index

Hi,
I am new to OTN and oracle technology. I met a problem as I wanted to create a spatial index.
I created a table 'geoobject' with a column 'shape' of sdo_geometry.
The I run the following script:
insert into user_sdo_geom_metadata values ('geoobject', 'shape',
mdsys.sdo_dim_array(
mdsys.sdo_dim_element('latitude', 0.0000, 50.0000, 0.000050),
mdsys.sdo_dim_element('longitude', 0.0000, 80.0000, 0.000050)), 8265
after that I insert data into the table:
update geoobject set shape=
mdsys.sdo_geometry(2001, 8265,
mdsys.sdo_point_type
(to_number((select latitude from temp_location where temp_location.gid = geoobject.geo_id)),
to_number((select longitude from temp_location where temp_location.gid = geoobject.geo_id)), null),
null, null);
Then I wanted to create the spatial index:
create index geoobject_idx on geoobject(shape)
indextype is mdsys.spatial_index;
But I got the error messages:
Error in line 1:
ORA-29855: Fehler bei Ausführung der Routine ODCIINDEXCREATE (Error at running routine ODCIINDEXCREATE)

I read some messages from the OTN forum and got to know to test the data with the following script:
SELECT geo_id FROM geoobject
WHERE SDO_GEOM.VALIDATE_GEOMETRY_WITH_CONTEXT(shape, .005) <> 'TRUE';
All data passed this test.
Could somebody give me some suggestions?

My spatial index has been successfully generated after i enlarged the tablespace. But I encounter a new problem.
I have saved many points in the table. I can use oracle spatial analyzer to see all the points. But as I tried to run the following query according to the examples in the oracle spatial user guider, I always get error messages. I have no idea about which problems there might be.
The Query is:
select geo_id, geo_name from geoobject g
where mdsys.sdo_filter
(g.shape, mdsys.sdo_geometry
(2003, null, null,
mdsys.sdo_elem_info_array(1, 1003, 1),
mdsys.sdo_ordinate_array(25.00, 60.00, 25.00, 70.00, 35.00, 70.00, 35.00, 60.00, 25.00, 60.00)
), 'querytype=WINDOW') ='true'
and sdo_relate
(g.shape, mdsys.sdo_geometry
(2003, null, null,
mdsys.sdo_elem_info_array(1, 1003, 1),
mdsys.sdo_ordinate_array(25.00, 60.00, 25.00, 70.00, 35.00, 70.00, 35.00, 60.00, 25.00, 60.00)
), 'masktype=TOUCH querytype=WINDOW') ='true';
The error messages are:
ERROR in line 1:
ORA-29902: Fehler bei der Ausführung von Routine ODCIIndexStart()

ORA-06512: in "MDSYS.SDO_INDEX_METHOD_9I", Zeile 368
ORA-06512: in Zeile 1
I use SRID = 8307, I want to use Geodetic Coordinate Support. For that reason, as I insert the information into the database, I just insert '8307' as the SRID both in the geo table and in the table user_sdo_geom_metadata. Except for that I did nothing which seems to be related to support geodetic coordination system. I think the problems might be here.
I am looking forward to helps.

Rights issue when creating context index.

Hi,
We have two users, "app" and "appsys" . with most permissions granted through roles.
"app" has just enough permissions for the application to run. No update/delete/etc on most tables, just select and (on a select few) insert rights.
"appsys" is the "crew" user, with enough rights for basic day-to-day administration and most upgrade scripts that come with new code releases.
Other than that, it's a pretty much default EE 11.2.0.1.0.
Therefore, my first preference was to have 'appsys' create the desired text index for use by 'app':
CREATE INDEX app.table_text_ix ON app.table (xml)
     INDEXTYPE IS CTXSYS.CONTEXT PARAMETERS('SYNC (EVERY "TRUNC(SYSDATE + 1) + 03/24") TRANSACTIONAL');
Have also tried the bare:
CREATE INDEX app.table_text_ix ON app.table (xml)
     INDEXTYPE IS CTXSYS.CONTEXT;
Both give the same result:
Error at Command Line:1 Column:19
Error report:

I've tried granting just about anything but the kitchen sink to either user, both direct and indirect, but it still won't let me. Even SYS seems to be missing something.
Or rather, I seem to be missing something. But what? I've read a few prior threads about this issue and tried most suggestions: still no go.
Things I've GRANTed, as per documentation:
- CTXAPP role
- execute on ctxsys.ctx_ddl
- RESOURCE
- CONNECT
Other privileges it already had OR that I've tried granting:
EXECUTE ANY PROCEDURE
CREATE SESSION
UNLIMITED TABLESPACE
CREATE TABLE
CREATE ANY TABLE
ALTER ANY TABLE
DROP ANY TABLE
CREATE CLUSTER
CREATE ANY INDEX
ALTER ANY INDEX
DROP ANY INDEX
CREATE SEQUENCE
CREATE PROCEDURE
CREATE ANY PROCEDURE
CREATE ANY JOBB
CREATE TRIGGER
CREATE ANY TRIGGER
CREATE TYPE
CREATE OPERATOR
CREATE INDEXTYPE
Have also tried the grant select on sys.all_users to public; solution from a previous thread.
So... I'm lost... what am I missing?

I don't know if what you have posted is pseudo-code or what you actually ran. Table is not a valid name for a table. It is best to post a copy and paste of an actual run from SQL*Plus, including line numbers and errors. I suggest that you start with a very simple example, avoiding reserve names like table and xml, just creating a simple text index on a table with a varchar2 column, as the same user that owns the table, checking everything along the way. Once you get that working, then you can add the other things one at a time. I have provided a script for you to run and post the results of below, followed by a run of the script on my system to show what you should get.
