ORA-20103: Null input is not allowed

Hi, Got a bit of a problem I'm struggling with. Hoping someone can help !
I've got some PL/SQL code which performs some simple checks against XML to see if its Malformed.I can't cut and paste the real code due to security constraints but this should give you the gist :
BEGIN
p:=xmlparser.newParser;
xmlparser.parseCLOB(p,c); -- where P is xmlparser.parser and c is a CLOB variable
doc:= xmlparser.getDocument(p);
--Check Elements
--Attributes etc
goes on through the elements etc checking for missing tags etc.
This code worked a treat but then when once in production we started getting some Java out of memory errors so I've added a xmlparser.freeparser(p) and a freedocument once everything is completed (the parser is created and destroyed for each CLOB as part of a cursor loop) but now when I run it I get a ORA-20103: Null input is not allowed error. I've traced it through and it bombs out with this error at the point where it performs the xmlparser.parseCLOB(p,c) call. I've checkd and the Clob variable has a clob in it at the point where parseCLOB is called.
What makes this really interesting is that the ORA-20103 error only occurs when you pass it a clob containing MALFORMED XML !! This didn't happen before I added the freeparser etc !!!
I've compared code and its identical save for the freeparser and freedocument calls, which come well AFTER the parseCLOB command.
Has anyone got any ideas as I'm out of them !!
Thanks in advanced for any help received.

This should solve your problem
IF (xmldom.isNull(nf) = TRUE) THEN
dbms_output.put_line ('I am NULL');
ELSIF (xmldom.isNull(nf) = FALSE) THEN
dbms_output.put_line ('I am not NULL');
IF xmldom.getNodeType(nf) = xmldom.TEXT_NODE THEN
dbms_output.put_line (xmldom.getNodeValue(nf));
END IF;
END IF ;
Thanks

ORA-01719: outer join operator (+) not allowed in operand of OR or IN

and aa.estblmt_id=e.estblmt_id and e.end_dt is null) order by t.name

First, is this query being executed within Apex or at the SQL prompt or in SQL Workshop, or something else? Some context of where it's being executed may help.
Next, that's a query from hell. How about rewrting it to use ANSI join syntax instead, so it'a bit more readable?
A quick example for part of it would be:
FROM (additional_addr aa LEFT OUTER JOIN estblmt e ON aa.estblmt_id = e.estblmt_id )
etc.
Just add additional parenthesis for each additional table join, similar to:
FROM ((additional_addr aa LEFT OUTER JOIN estblmt e ON aa.estblmt_id = e.estblmt_id )
LEFT OUTER JOIN src_country_state_region scsr ON aa.state_region_id = scsr.state_region_id )
In the long run it will make the query a bit more legible, so your where clause only lists the query conditions, not the join conditions. Then it becomes easier to quickly glance at it and see where potential problems may be.

Outer Join problems - "ORA-30563 outer join operator (+) not allowed in select-list"

Products: Discoverer 4.1.33.0.2
(Admin and User/Plus)
8i EE 8.1.7 (Discoverer server)
8i EE 8.1.5 ('source data' server)
Background assumptions: (1) If a column from an "outer-joined" table is compared to a constant, the outer join operator must be applied to that column in order for the outer join to work. (2) A 'Condition' specified in Discoverer User/Plus manifests as a comparison to a constant.
I created a join in Admin between two folders, selected 'outer join on detail' option. In User/Plus, created worksheet containing columns from the joined folders. When no Conditions are NOT specified, results seem ok. However, when Condition IS added, worksheet encounters "ORA-30563 outer join operator (+) not allowed in select-list" and returns blank sheet.
To workaround, created Custom folder with outer join in place. Didn't work either with Conditions specified. No error, but I think that because Discoverer did not 'outer join' the Condition column, the outer join was ignored.
Any insights, ideas, or workarounds are much appreciated.
-Jim

If you build a query that uses an outer join then any items from the potentially deficient side of the join will have (+) appended to them everywhere in the sql. Up until 8.1.7 this was OK in the select list as it was just treated as noise and ignored - However this now fails with ORA-30563:
outer join operator (+) not allowed in select-list...
In 4.1.33.1.6 you get the error 'ORA-30563 outer join operator(+) not allowed in select list'.
In 4.1.36.1.10 the query runs OK.. Your work around I would guess would be to create a custom folder as you suggested.

ORA-00934: group function is not allowed here

Hi,
My requirement is to check oi.quantity is equal to sum of packing_detail. quantity
by order_number
select oi.quantity_ordered oi_qu, pd.quantity pq
from ordered_items oi, packing_details pd
where oi.ordered_item_id = pd.ordered_item_id
and oi.quantity_ordered = sum(pd.quantity)
and oi.order_number = '29';
after executing above query I get error
SQL Error: ORA-00934: group function is not allowed here
00934. 00000 - "group function is not allowed here"
Please tell me how to resolve it.
Thanks in advance
Sandy

You have to make use of a subquery;
select oi.quantity_ordered oi_qu, pd.quantity pq
from ordered_items oi, packing_details pd
where oi.ordered_item_id = pd.ordered_item_id
and oi.quantity_ordered = *(select sum(pd.quantity) from packing_details pd1 group by pd1.ordered_item_id)*
and oi.order_number = '29'; This is based on the assumption that ordered_items is the summarize data and packing_details are the line item level data.

Dipankar.

Hi Arunkumar ,
I think you don't need subquery.

Receiving an ORA-31020: The operation is not allowed...

I'm trying to use a stylesheet that has several included stylesheets.
It looks something like this...
<?xml version='1.0'?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:include href="http://fhamiwsdt01/AMIWeb/namespaces/AmerisureClient.xsl"/>

<xsl:include href="http://fhamiwsdt01/AMIWeb/namespaces/AmerisureRetailAgent.xsl"/>
<xsl:include href="http://fhamiwsdt01/AMIWeb/namespaces/TransactionUtilities.xsl"/>
My procedure is to grab an xml an bump it up against the stylesheet as follows.
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION transformPolicyXml RETURN CLOB IS
-- Define the local variables
xmldata XMLType;
xsldata XMLType;
newxml XMLType;
xml clob;
xsl clob;
error varchar2(200);
BEGIN

-- Since XMLType.transform() method takes XML data as XMLType instance,
-- use the XMLType.createXML method to convert the XML content received
-- as CLOB into an XMLType instance.
xml := getxml('Policy.xml');
xmldata := XMLType.createXML(xml);
-- Get the XSL Stylesheet using the getXSL() function defined in the database.
-- Since XMLType.transform() method takes an XSL stylesheet as XMLType instance,
-- use the XMLType.createXML method to convert the XSL content received as CLOB

xsl := getxml('Amerisure EAI XSLT.xsl');
xsldata := XMLType.createXML(xsl);
-- Use the XMLtype.transform() function to get the transformed XML instance.
-- This function applies the stylesheet to the XML document and returns a transformed
-- XML instance.
newxml := xmldata.transform(xsldata);
-- Return the transformed XML instance as a CLOB value.
RETURN newxml.getClobVal();
EXCEPTION WHEN OTHERS THEN
error := sqlerrm;
raise_application_error (-20102, 'Exception occurred in transformPolicyXml :'||SQLERRM);
END transformPolicyXml;
The following statement is what causes an error:
newxml := xmldata.transform(xsldata);
the error i'm receiving is ORA-31020: The operation is not allowed, Reason: For security reasons, ftp and http access over XDB repository is not allowed on server side.
Is there anyway to get around this error?

As the error says, the XML DB does not allow ftp or http access to remote objects.
You will need to make all your includes local to the DB server.

ORA-2935 - relative pathnames are not allowed - help needed

I'm trying to generate XML document from a query using XSU and applying stylesheet with DBMS_XMLQUERY.setXSLT() procedure.
I've got the following PL/SQL code:
DECLARE
q DBMS_XMLQUERY.ctxtype;
result clob;
BEGIN
q := DBMS_XMLQUERY.newcontext('select * from test_xml1');
DBMS_XMLQUERY.setxslt(q,'c:\test_xsl.xsl');
result := DBMS_XMLQUERY.getxml(q);
printclobout(result);
DBMS_XMLQUERY.closecontext(q);
END;
and stylesheet (I made the simplest example possible):
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" version = "1.0">
<xsl:output indent="yes"/>
<xsl:template match="ROW/COLUMNA1">
<COL1><xsl:value-of select="COLUMNA1"/></COL1>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
and I'm getting error
ORA-29532: Java call terminated by uncaught Java exception: java.lang.SecurityException: relative
pathnames are not allowed(c:\test_xsl1.xsl)
What am I doing wrong?
How the DBMS_XMLQUERY.setXSLT() procedure should be used?
Where is the DBMS_XMLquery package expecting to find the XSL file? Does the XSL stylesheet have to be stored in a database table, retrieve it and have it applied, or does it need to be an external file?
Please help!
Thanks!

ORA-01719: outer join operator (+) not allowed in operand of OR

Hi all:
I understand the error, but I'm not sure how to fix my query. In our database, a person does not NEED to have an address. The report I'm trying to create has a parameter for which address the user would like to have displayed. BUT, I need to outer join to the address table since people don't need an address, but we'd want to display all records, even if the address is null. Here's only part of my code since the query is quite large. Let me know if more is needed, and I'll supply it. I'm definately stuck. At this point I'm thinkin' of just creating two reports; one that displays the clients address, and a second that'll display the house physical address. The code:
WHERE
:P_ADDR = 'Lessee Mailing Address' AND
lessee.actor_inst = address.actor_inst (+)
) OR (
:P_ADDR = 'Unit Address' AND
housing.actor_inst = address.actor_inst (+)
) AND

Stick with ANSI SQL Notation, then you can overcome this restriction.
See Back to basics: outer joins
and look for »ORA-01719«

ORA-02021: DDL operations are not allowed on a remote database

Hi,
While creating a trigger to keep track of every deletion on a remote table, I am receiving this error.
I am not using any DDL within my trigger.
My trigger code is:
CREATE OR REPLACE TRIGGER neeraj.iuc_trig
before delete on neeraj_test@iuc
for each row
DECLARE .........................
Here iuc is public database link.
Any idea ?
Regards,
Neeraj

Hi Neeraj,
you cannot define a trigger on a remote table.
why don't you define the trigger just directly on
the remote db.
You can define some insert/update ... operations
on "your" db in your trigger.
you need a db_link for that on your remote-db
to your "original"-db
update emp@orig_db ...

PL/SQL equivalent of T-SQL - "group function is not allowed here"

Hi all, hope someone can give me a hand as I'm pretty stuck! I have been trying to convert some MS SQL Server T-SQL statements into Oracle PL/SQL and am stuck on the below one:
SELECT
CA.AssessmentID,
(SELECT ProductName + ISNULL(' - ' + PrincipalBenefit,'')
FROM rptPolicySnapshot WHERE PolicyID = MAX(CA.PolicyID)
AND SnapshotID = 1),
MAX(CA.PolicyID)
FROM rptClaimInvoiceLineSnapshot CIL
INNER JOIN rptClaimAssessmentSnapshot CA
ON CIL.AssessmentID = CA.AssessmentID
AND CIL.SnapshotID = CA.SnapshotID
WHERE CIL.SnapshotID = 1
GROUP BY CA.AssessmentID
This works fine in MSSQL but returns the below error in Oracle:
'ORA-00934: group function is not allowed here'
If I take out the subquery the query works fine.
Any ideas as to the syntax? I am new to Oracle so not sure as to how I should go about writing this.
Thanks in advance!
Leo

Getting Group Function is not Allowed

Hello All....
When I run the following in the SQL command screen it works fine... But when I try to use it in APEX to populate page values, it gives me the error...
ERROR
1 error has occurred
ORA-06550: line 25, column 74: PL/SQL: ORA-00934: group function is not allowed here ORA-06550: line 24, column 1: PL/SQL: SQL Statement ignored
CODE THAT WORKS IN SQL COMMAND SCREEN
SELECT
SUM(CASE WHEN SLOT = 'Q' THEN '1' ELSE '0' END) AS C_SLOT,
SUM(CASE WHEN TEST = 'P' THEN '1' ELSE '0' END) AS C_TEST,
FROM TBL_REC;
CODE THAT GIVES ERROR ON APPLICATION EXPRESS PAGE
SELECT
SUM(CASE WHEN SLOT = 'Q' THEN '1' ELSE '0' END) INTO :P2_C_SLOT,
SUM(CASE WHEN TEST = 'P' THEN '1' ELSE '0' END) INTO :P2_C_TEST,
FROM TBL_REC;
The colums SLOT and TEST have letter codes, I just want it to count just when it matches a certain letter. In the SQL Command Screen, it is returning one row, with the counts, everything is fine. It is only a problem when I try to use it anywere on a page in Application Express.
The full version has about 20 lines that are all sum lines, but I can not even get the 2 line ver above to work.
Any thoughts?

This will work .. the into clause goes after the select columns ... into var1 ,var2 etc ..
SELECT SUM(CASE
             WHEN SLOT = 'Q' THEN
              '1'
             ELSE
              '0'
           END),
       SUM(CASE
             WHEN TEST = 'P' THEN
              '1'
             ELSE
              '0'
           END)
INTO :P2_C_SLOT, :P2_C_TEST,
FROM TBL_REC;SS

Write File.vi does not allow for offset entry

I am using a Write File.vi to write data to my hard drive like always but I have never used the offset before and it is not allowing me to enter an offset value and the error message does not make sense. The error says you have wired different data types but then say source long, sink long which are the same in my eyes.
Is there a trick to using the offset?

If you are writing to file different data types, the use of input is not allowed because it depends on the number of bytes used to store the type (that's why it should be just one type)

ORA-20103: Null input is not allowed
