ORA-06571: Function TEST_FUNC does not guarantee not to update database

I have created a very simple C function in a .dll. Everything compiles OK, and I can create the lib, package, and procedure. But when I try to use it from sql*plus:
SQL> select test_func(1) from dual;
select test_func(1) from dual
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-06571: Function TEST_FUNC does not guarantee not to update database
Note, all the function should do is return arg+1.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

  • ORA-06571: Function SAM_OUTPUT does not guarantee not to update database

    Hi,
    i created a package as follows,
    CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE cursor_test_pak
    AS
    TYPE trans_cursor IS REF CURSOR;
    FUNCTION Cursor_Test
    RETURN trans_cursor;
              FUNCTION sam_output RETURN NUMBER;
    END;
    CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE BODY cursor_test_pak
    AS
    FUNCTION Cursor_Test RETURN trans_cursor
    AS
    lv_cursor trans_cursor;
    BEGIN
    OPEN lv_cursor FOR
    SELECT * FROM JAMES_SAM6;
    RETURN lv_cursor;
    END ;
    FUNCTION sam_output RETURN NUMBER
    AS
    lv_cur trans_cursor;
    BEGIN
    lv_cur := Cursor_Test();
    RETURN lv_cur%ROWCOUNT;
    --RETURN 1;
    END;
    END;
    after that i tried the following statement,
    select cursor_test_pak.sam_output() from dual;
    i got the following error,
    ORA-06571: Function SAM_OUTPUT does not guarantee not to update database
    i don't know what does it mean?
    can any one help me in this?
    Thanks,
    james.

    i think use of cursor attribute not possible with cursor variable
    like this : lv_cur%ROWCOUNT; If you are not sure why don't you check ?
    SQL> declare
      2   rc sys_refcursor;
      3   a integer;
      4  begin

      7    fetch rc into a;
      8    exit when rc%notfound;
      9    dbms_output.put_line('CURSOR VARIABLE %ROWCOUNT = ' || rc%rowcount);

  • Function in SQL: PRAGMA used, but '..does not guarantee not to update database'- WHY?

    I use function in SQL statement. It is a dynamicaly build SQL, therefore I need overload functions. These funcs defined in package. The package has PRAGMA Restrict_References (.., WNDS). So all functions should be restricted to update database.
    But Oracle returns an error:
    Function NVL_ does not guarantee not to update database
    This is my build SQL:
    ----- the execution string is: ---------------
    Begin
    INSERT INTO TEST_TBL_BS (MILL_ORDER, CLM1, CLM2, CLM3, NOTES, INIT_DATE )
    VALUES (NV.NVL_(Arc_Utl.TEST_TBL_dltd.MILL_ORDER),
    NV.NVL_(Arc_Utl.TEST_TBL_dltd.CLM1),
    NV.NVL_(Arc_Utl.TEST_TBL_dltd.CLM2),
    NV.NVL_(Arc_Utl.TEST_TBL_dltd.CLM3),
    NV.NVL_(Arc_Utl.TEST_TBL_dltd.NOTES),
    Arch.Init_Time );
    End;
    This is NV package:
    PACKAGE NV IS
    PRAGMA Restrict_References ( NV, WNDS );
    NULL_date DATE := TO_DATE ('01/01/1001', 'mm/dd/yyyy');
    NULL_numb NUMBER := 0;
    NULL_str VARCHAR2 (10)
    := '?';
    -- overloaded NULL_Val function returns NULL_<type> value (defined early)
    -- depend on received variable type
    FUNCTION NULL_Val ( val_in IN DATE )
    RETURN DATE ;
    FUNCTION NULL_Val ( val_in IN NUMBER )
    RETURN NUMBER ;
    FUNCTION NULL_Val ( val_in IN VARCHAR2 )
    RETURN VARCHAR2 ;
    -- PRAGMA Restrict_References ( NULL_Val, WNDS ); -- can be used in SQLs
    -- these pretends to cover hole of the SYS.NVL that do not have posibility

    END NV;
    CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE BODY NV AS

    FUNCTION NVL_ ( val_in IN NUMBER )

    FUNCTION NVL_ ( val_in IN VARCHAR2 )
    RETURN VARCHAR2 IS
    BEGIN RETURN NVL( val_in, NULL_Val ( val_in )); END NVL_;
    END NV;
    Can anybody help : where is a problem and what I can do in my case?
    I work in Oracle 7.3
    Thank you,
    Alex

    Hi Alex,
    I've found that on the RDBS docs:
    If you specify DEFAULT instead of a function name, the pragma applies to all functions in the package spec or object type spec (including, in the latter case, the
    system-defined constructor). You can still declare the pragma for individual functions. Such pragmas override the default pragma.
    Try using that and let me know.
    The docs says also that the declaration of the pragma for an overloaded function applies to the nearest one. You may also try to insert several declaration, one after every function declaration.
    Bye Max

  • ORA-06571

    Hi hussein,
    We are in the process of migrating data from APPS 11.0.3 on NT to APPS 11.5.10.2 on AIX.
    We used some db packages to aid us in converting the column values and their definitions from different tables.
    One of theses packages is GL_FLEXFIELDS_PKG.
    When I run this package on 11.5.10.2 using apps/apps users id, is works fine, but when I run it
    on Apps 11.0.3 it throws this error:
    select gl_flexfields_pkg.get_description(101,'01','01') from dual
    ERROR at line 1:
    ORA-06571: Function GET_DESCRIPTION does not guarantee not to update database
    How do i resolve this error please....
    Thanks a lot

    thanks hussein :)
    It says I have to inject PRAGMA RESTRICT ek ek :( will i not be tampering the Oracle Apps packages? This is in PROD NT 4.0 which is very sensitive and long time
    desupported both OS and DB 8.0.5 and APPS 11.0.5 and almost in the verge of collapsing.

    In order not to waste your time in the future:
    Don't execute dynamic SQL until it works !!!
    Write out what you managed to put together using dbms_output.
    Paste that into the SQL window of your client tool (SQL Developer ...)
    Convert parameters to bind variables (replace p_ with :p_)
    Try to run it.
    If errors are thrown correct them, adjust the procedure/function set up to write your dynamic SQL accordingly
    Repeat the cycle until no errors are thrown
    Comment out the dbms_output. ... line
    Uncomment the execute immediate ... line

  • Why an "ORA-01006: bind variable does not exist" error when no dynamic SQL?

    Hi all,
    While running PL/SQL in SQL Developer 3.2.09, I got the following error after adding a section of code. Note that nothing I'm doing has anything to do with dynamic SQL (which is what 01006 is supposedly about).
    Error report:
    ORA-01006: bind variable does not exist
    01006. 00000 - "bind variable does not exist"
    *Cause:   
    *Action:
    After commenting out the new chunk of code that caused the error, the error persisted.
    After deleting the new code, the error went away.
    What the heck!?!? If you have any ideas, please lay 'em on me.
    Thanks so much,
    Kim
    P.S. It's a few hundred lines of code, so I didn't append it to this post and I don't see how to attach a file.

    Let's review a few facts:
    1. You post a question in the sql developer forum that has no apparent relation to sql developer. You could confirm this by doing the test using sql*plus or some other tool.
    2. You provide NO information about what database you are even using. The only clue is an ORA -xxx message that means SOME version of Oracle is involved.
    3. You provide NO information about what the four digit version of Oracle DB is being used.
    4. You provide NO information about what the code in general or what that specific section of the code is even doing. The code could be doing literally anything that Oracle is capable of doing.
    That's a bit like calling a mechanic you don't know, telling them your car is making a funny noise and asking them what the problem with your car is.

    Your first clue that your troubleshooting method is seriously flawed is when you make statements that aren't supported by any evidence at all but appear to be nothing but your opinion.
    Your second clue is when those statements appear to directly contradict what Oracle is telling you.
    I'm talking about these two statements you make; which you state as if they were universal truths

    >
    If thoe were true then your 'unstated' conclusion appears to be that Oracle is wrong in saying 'bind variable does not exist'
    Sorry - but I would place my money on Oracle.
    I'm sure the above may sound harsh - it is intended to be. My four major rules (there are more) when troubleshooting Oracle problems.
    1. Assume that Oracle is CORRECT when it tells you there is a problem.
    2. Assume that you are WRONG if your opinion conflicts with what Oracle is telling you - see rule #1.
    3. Don't make ANY other assumptions. You can form hypotheses but don't state them as facts until they are proven.
    4. Your 'opinion' is only useful to the extent that it can help you form meaningful hypotheses - see rule #3.
    >
    To reiterate, there is no dynamic SQL in the code.
    >
    To reiterate - if, as you state, that error relates to dynamic SQL and bind variables then it can not be disputed that:
    ORACLE DOESN'T AGREE WITH YOU!
    So let's try it my way and hypothesize that Oracle is correct (see rule #1 above).
    Then by definition this statement by Oracle is correct
    >
    ORA-01006: bind variable does not exist
    >
    And that should immediately raise this question:
    1. where might there be a bind variable that does not exist?
    which leads to a prerequisite question:
    2. where are ALL of the bind variables that might be being used?
    Question #2 is where you need to start your search. Here are at least five possibilities (there are more)
    1. your code - this should be easiest to check and you state that your 'anonymous' block does not have any.
    2. a table trigger - triggers that use the :NEW, :OLD or :PARENT pseudocolumns. Those psuedocolumns are BIND variables and the trigger code that uses them is, by definition, dynamic sql.
    3. a pl/sql package/function/procedure - any of these might be being called from trigger code or a view that is involved in the transaction. Any of these could take a parameter and/or use bind variables and cause your problem if that bind variable does 'not exist'.
    4. a functional index - can also trigger code from #3 above
    5. an audit trigger that logs the audit activity that your user or your code is performing. This code could be trying to use a SYS_CONTEXT environment variable that has not been created and cause a 'bind variable does not exist' error.
    See rule #1 - Oracle is CORRECT. Until you have identified and examined ALL of the code (not just your anonymous block) being executed and ruled it out you should continue with the hypotheses that Oracle is CORRECT.
    In the (extremely) unlikely event that you can show that Oracle is NOT correct you should file a SOR with Oracle.

    My guess is that the database service "HCM" is not up and running but not sure how to make up and running. Even I could not find it listed in the linux services list.
    Note: Able to login sqlplus using "sqlplus sys/sys as sysdba" but failing to access database table as "select * from PSRECDEFN;"
    thanks

  • ORA-27473: argument 1 does not exist

    Hello
    I've been trying to create a file_watcher to check for files arriving at the filesystem. But keep getting the error "ORA-27473: argument 1 does not exist ". I've searched forums but can't find an answer to get me on track.
    Does anyone know why I get this error?
    The examples I've been following are those provided by oracle and some from the web. All very simple and run, but mine does not.
    The system I'm using is a Oracle prebuilt VM 'Database App Development VM', where the OS is Oracle Linux 5 and Oracle Database 11.2 EE.
    An example is this: http://awads.net/wp/2011/03/29/did-you-know-about-file-watchers/
    /JacMa

    Just wondering whether your enter this part correctly ?

    Than you for any suggestion.

    I hope you do realise that there are 13 bind-variables in your sql, not 6?
    Variables are bound by position. You cannot use the same bind variable twice, they will be 2 distinct bind variables.
    For example, you use :1 three times, so you need to provide three arguments, in this case three times the same value.

    When i execute this script below to existing Business Group( Vision University 1759 or Vision Corporation 202 ) data is transferred to per_grades and per_grade_definitions tables
    But when i execute this same script pointing to a Business Group  (TEST  BG 7891) we created by ourself  it gives error code ORA-20001 FLEX-ID DOES NOT EXIST
    I have a strong feeling that creating our Business Group and setting up the Grade Flexfield has a problem, but i can 't trace the fault, am not EBS expert
    Please can you please advice where am going wrong !!
    Thanks,

    Here mappings are getting executed by calling a pl/sql procedure. This pl/sql procedure is executed every day by scheduling a dbms_job. After the error, the job is in hanging.
    Last week also the same error happened, on that occasion , restarted the database and re submitted the job. Mapping executed without any error.
    Looking for the expert comments

    Hi.
    See Note:125860.1 in metalink (and please, lol to solution #3). It applies to older OWB versions though... Are you using DBMS_JOB or OEM to run these mappings? If so, then the metalink note might be useful help.
    Karesz, I believe if the source database was down, it would fail with an ORA-12XXX Error.

    When I use find file http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/30073/find-file (which does tend to find files that "Finder" can't), it's not coming up with any other itunes library files that have been modified in the past week, which I know it would have been - unfortunately, I don't have a very recent backup of the hard drive.  It would be a few months old so it wouldn't have the complete library on it....any ideas?  I'm wondering if restarting the computer might help but have been afraid to do so in case it would make it harder to recover anything...I was looking at this thread https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4211589?start=0&tstart=0 in the hopes that it might have a helpful suggestion but it's definitely a different scenario.

    Thanks

    Hi,
    "The archived log is not the correct log.
    It is a copy of a log file that has never been used for redo generation, or was an online log being prepared to be the current log."
    "Restore the correct log file."
    Can you say, what is last changes on your database, On log files?
    Did you copies your '/redolog2/redo/redolog3a.log' log file from other ?
    Regards
    Mahir M. Quluzade

    there was a entry in /etc/hosts which was directing primary.swapnilkambli.com to 127.0.01
    This was because I created this OS from a Virtual box template wherein that entry was made.
    I changed the /etc/hosts to refelct the true address and it worked!!
