ORA-20001:Error fetching column value:Query must  begin with SELECT or WITH

Hi all,
I have implemented an application with a master-detail form using Apex 3.1.2 and I imported that to Apex 3.2 on different server. Everything else seems to be fine except when I add detail record (clicking on Add Rows), I am getting following error.
=================
report error:
ORA-20001: Error fetching column value: ORA-20001: Query must begin with SELECT or WITH
====================
Both the databases have same version 10gR2. I didn't make any change after importing it as well. Can someone let me know what could be the issue? Thanks in advance.

May we know your first name?
Can you put the application in your workspace on apex.oracle.com so we can take a look?

  • Report error: ORA-20001: Error fetching column value

    Hi,
    I try to build a tabular form with 1 column as "Select List (Query based on LOV)". This select list should display round about 1.100 rows in the LOV ordered by name. So I got the error: report error:
    ORA-20001: Error fetching column value: ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numerischer oder Wertefehler: character string buffer too small
    When I try tho define this column as Popup LOV (Query based LOV) only the the ID of the attribute and not the display value appeares in the row. The LOV it self displays the display number and not the the ID. I want to see the display value in the column of the particular row and the LOV and return the ID to the record by insert or update as it is normal in LOVs of form regions.
    This lot of rows in the LOV is necessary because it is a part to develop formulas like (number_of_acquisitions - number_of_old_parts)/100 or so. The most formulas will be more complex. In the database there should only be the ID as reference to the attributes.
    Please help me to display the attribute bases on LOV in every particular row.
    Thank you
    Siegwin

    In Apex 4 there is now a column type "Popup Key LOV (named LOV)" which is exactly what you are looking for.

  • Report suddenly showing ORA-20001: Error fetching column value: ORA-06502:

    Hi,
    Some reports in my applications are suddenly showing:
    ORA-20001: Error fetching column value: ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: character string buffer too small
    instead iof the data they used to show.
    In my development system I can fix this by:
    1. changing the column alias in my sql
    select 'a' alias1 from dual becomes
    select 'a' alias2 from dual
    2. SAVE CHANGES
    3. change column alias back to original
    select 'a' alias2 from dual becomes
    select 'a' alias1 from dual
    4. reorder columns back to original in the 'report attributes' tab
    alias1 is now at the bottom of my colum list - i just bounce it up to column 4 using the up arrows
    5. SAVE CHANGES
    then everything starts working OK again.
    There seems to be nothing wrong with my sql as I can make it works on a new page or after I run the above steps, so I guess something is breaking somewhere but I cannot work out what.
    Has anyone else seen this? Does anyone know the cause? Does anyone have a fix for this that does not involve the above steps (plus redeployment to prodcution and all the work that involves)?
    I am seeing this on version 2.3 and 3.0.
    Thanks,
    Martin

    wp.application_order wp_order - Database Column NUMBER - Report Column Standard

  • ORA-20001: Error fetching column value: ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value

    I have an application made in devlopment which is working fine and i jsut migrated it to production but when i am running one of the page in the app in production it si throwing this error "ORA-20001: Error fetching column value: ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: character string buffer too small"... this report is ment for generating report.
    Now what i have done, i compared both dev and prod environment but i have not found and changes except this one. In the page of both the application in dev and prod under shared component under under template the region of breadcrum and report region is showing in different position. i dont think it a problem because of that i am facing problem.
    If anybody have idea how could i recitfy the prbs i will be highly thankful to you
    Regards
    Adi

    friends i have seen where the error is coming but i am unable to trace out how to increase the size of lov which i have made.
    when i am taking display as select list(named lov) it is throwing me the error "ORA-20001: Error fetching column value: ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: character string buffer too small" but if i am taking display as "popup lov(named lov)" under tablular form element under one of the column in the report, it is working properly. but not shwoing the report the way we want it to show. For that reason i want to increase the size of the love which i have made.

  • Classic Report - report error:ORA-20001: Error fetching column value

    Hi,
    In Apex 4 I have created an SQL report which errors with ORA-20001: Error fetching column value: ORA-01403: no data found.
    It works fine if I hard code the start and end dates but fails when I use page items as parameters.
    I call a stored function as below:
    DECLARE
    l_sql VARCHAR2(4000);
    BEGIN
    SELECT ICDB_PCT_MRSA_POS_REP(v('P40_NEWSTARTDATE'),
    v('P40_NEWENDDATE'))
    INTO l_sql
    FROM dual;
    RETURN(l_sql);
    END;
    although I have used the :P40_NEWSTARTDATE form too, with the same result.
    Any suggestions will be welcome.
    Thanks,
    Chris

    Hi Chris,
    have you debugged if ICDB_PCT_MRSA_POS_REP is raising the no-data-found error or if it's the actual SQL statement which got returned?
    Comment out the call to ICDB_PCT_MRSA_POS_REP and return a hard coded SQL statement with
    return 'select [... here comes a sample sql statement returned by ICDB_PCT_MRSA_POS_REP]';to rule out that ICDB_PCT_MRSA_POS_REP is raising the error.
    BTW what is the purpose of the select from dual? Just call the ICDB_PCT_MRSA_POS_REP directly like
    return ICDB_PCT_MRSA_POS_REP(:P40_NEWSTARTDATE, :P40_NEWENDDATE);Regards

  • Tabular Form: ORA-20001: Error fetching column value: ORA-01403: no data fo

    Hi,
    Generating some custom error messages with APEX_ERROR.ADD_ERROR at the "Before Header" process point seems to break the display of tabular forms:
    http://apex.oracle.com/pls/apex/f?p=26409:2
    but work OK for other forms:
    http://apex.oracle.com/pls/apex/f?p=26409:1
    I've read other posts saying recreating edited tabular forms will fix the error, but this is a brand new tabular form out of the wizard and this is reproducible at will.
    Any ideas? Here are the workspace parameters in case anyone would like to take a look:
    name: BNTEST, user: DEV, pw: DEV

    >
    I looked into collections but I didn't like the thought of the user potentially loosing extensive edits as his session expires.
    >
    Correct but how would you resolve this. Data only exists in the browser as long as you wont submit your page.
    So even if your session expires and you don't use collections you will still loose your data.
    I always prefer to use collections with tabular forms cause this gives the user the possibilety to cancel their changes without that it's been written to the database.
    I think that it's better to have no data then faulty data.
    I know that it takes a little more effort to use collections but in the end you'll be glad that you did it. ;)

  • Master Detail report   report error: ORA-20001: Error fetching column

    Hi All,
    I am a newbie in apex and try to create a master detail form, where the detail is displayed as a report.
    After inserting a new row in the master form i like to create the detail. It displays then ORA-01403: no data found
    I also insert in the database table the details. If i want to edit then it shows the following report error:
    ORA-20001: Error fetching column value: ORA-01403: no data found
    Can anyone help me, because i am struggling for a week with this problem.

    Your problem seems to be related to the usage of primary keys. You have to look into that and get more details.

  • Weird ORA-01406: fetched column value was truncated error for SELECT query

    DB version:10gR2
    When one of our application fires the below query, we get
    ORA-01406: fetched column value was truncatederror.
    select     trk_dtl,
         trk_type,
         trk_id,
         trk_desc,
    from     shp_dtl
    where     shp_type = 'HN'
    and     shp_type = 828;The documentation says
    Cause:In a host language program, a FETCH operation was forced to truncate a character string. The program buffer area for this column was not large enough to contain the entire string. The cursor return code from the fetch was +3.But when the application is pointed to an identical schema in the same instance, we don't get this error. So, this has got nothing to do client application as the documentation says.
    Any idea what other possibilities are there?

  • Help Needed: Facing the error ORA-01406: fetched column value was truncated

    Hi Everyone,
    When I run a particular PL/SQL query using Oracle 9i ODBC driver, it is working fine and fetching me the desired results.
    However, when I run the same query using the Oracle 10g ODBC driver, I am getting the error: ORA-01406: fetched column value was truncated.
    I have checked all the fields of the table and they are well within the allowable limit.
    Can you please let us know what needs to be done to resolve this issue?
    Thanks and Regards,

    Well it's obviously a problem with the client software. Doesn't Datastage have some way of configuring these things?

  • ORA-20001: Query must begin with SELECT or WITH

    Hi,
    On a page we have a hidden item :P3_SQL in which we save the dynamic sql query.
    We have a report region of SQL QUERY type whose source is this item :P3_SQL.
    This used to work fine in apex 3.*. We have upgraded our application to 4.0.1 and now we get this error.
    ORA-20001: Query must begin with SELECT or WITH
    I have a workaround for this, but just wanted to make sure somebody recognizes this as a bug in our latest apex version.
    Thanks
    Knut

    Hello Knut,
    I'm not sure if you encountered a bug or an improved validation of your query. If you had just ":P3_SQL" as source, this obviously is neither a correct query nor is it a function returning a query. I guess your workaround is actually encapsulating ":P3_SQL" in a block that returns the value. This is the intended way, not a bug. You just were lucky it was not validated and worked in previous versions.
    If my assumption was wrong, please post both working and non-working solution and a more precise description on when this error actually occurs.
    Thanks,
    Udo

  • ORA-01405: fetched column value is NULL

    Hi Siva
    It may be that you've taken care of null value in just one place and now, the error is coming

  • ORA-20001: Secondary key column identified wwas not located in the select l

    Error in mru internal routine: ORA-20001: Secondary key column identified was not located in the select list of the query
    I am receiving this error when I try and update a record in an updatable report (SQL QUERY Updateable). Two of the values being updated rely on a named LOV.
    The SQL query for the report does pull in both the keys (there are two keys)....I am not certain why this is happening...any clues would be appreciated.
    thanks. Karen

    sorry. I thought I had made it current. It is now.
    I am not certain if you will be able to run it as it is accessing our test tables. Will I need to move those tables to the workspace. I am also checking here to see if anyone has had experience. thankyou for your patience. I really appreciate it.

    ORA-00001: unique constraint (VEL5APPO.BL1_CHARGE_PK) violated
    =======Not sure why you think this a complex and unusual and difficult to understand error. It is very clear what is happening.
    WHAT: your code violates constraint VEL5APPO.BL1_CHARGE_PK that says that one or more columns must contain unique values.
    Who says it? That is specified by the first line in the error stack.
    WHO: parallel query process 7 ran into the constraint error
    So what's happening? Your SQL is executed in parallel. Up to 7 PX slaves are used to run your SQL - with each slave running the SAME SQL for DIFFERENT rowid ranges. PX slave 7 attempted an insert/update that would have resulted in a duplicate row. The database constraint protecting the integrity of that table, prevented it.
    So the error is very clear as to what is wrong, why it is wrong, and where it is happening.
    I fail to understand that you search google and metalink and failed to find answers, when the error is meaningful....?
