ORA-30625

Hi,
I have created custom insert button in my form and i have written following code on CUSTOM PL/SQL EVENT handler
onINSERT(
p_block_name => p_block_name ,
p_object_name => p_object_name,
p_instance => p_instance ,
p_event_type => p_event_type ,
p_user_args => p_user_args ,
p_session => p_session);
onSuccess(
p_block_name => p_block_name ,
p_object_name => p_object_name,
p_instance => p_instance ,
p_event_type => p_event_type ,
p_user_args => p_user_args ,
p_session => p_session);
When i click on Insert button, i am able to save the record but also i get following error.
ERROR:
ORA-30625: method dispatch on NULL SELF argument is disallowed.
ORA-06512: at "PORTAL30.WWA_AAP_MODULE"
Has anyone comeacross this problem?
Thank you

I'm getting nearly the same errors running
on portal 3.0.9.
When trying to direct a successful form submission to calling page using
call('','p_back_url');
I get this in apache error log...
ORA-30625: method dispatch on NULL SELF argument is disallowed
ORA-06512: at "PORTALCR.WWA_APP_MODULE", line 42
ORA-06512: at "PORTALCR.WWA_APP_MODULE", line 820
ORA-06501: PL/SQL: program error
ORA-06512: at line 8
This worked in 3.0.6.
The inserts and deletes work fine, I'm just not getting back to the calling page.
Cheers,

ORA-30625: method dispatch on NULL SELF error

Can Someone help me? I'm new to oracle. I'm writing a procedure to copy a file from my hard drive to oracle. I am getting an error: ORA-30625: method dispatch on NULL SELF argument is disallowed. So I just broke the code down to this little piece. I still get the same error. I created a directory called INPUT_FILE and the file test.jpg is in that directory. What am I missing?

There is a sample code for importing an image from an external file into the database in the section 2.2.8 of the interMedia User's Guide:
http://otn.oracle.com/doc/oracle8i_816/inter.816/a67299/mm_uses.htm#601053
Basically, you have to have a table in which you store the image in the database first.

ORA-30625: method dispatch on NULL SELF argument is disallowed (WWV-16016)

I've created a master detail form.
I only want the master record to be read only, as I have a separate form elsewhere that is used to enter all the fields in the table it is based on.
I've hidden the fields in the form that I do not wish the user to see and set the onFocus validation to blur(); to prevent data entry.
The problem is that when a user leaves the master block action to 'None' it produces the error:
ORA-30625: method dispatch on NULL SELF argument is disallowed (WWV-16016)
It runs fine on update mode after a record has been queried.
The table has the correct privs as I already have built a simple form to test inserting records into the master table elsewhere.
Ideally, I want to override the master block action via a bit of coding so to as to stop the user even attempting to create a new record in the master detail form:
p_session.set_value (p_block_name => 'MASTER_BLOCK'
, p_attribute_name => '_MASTER_ACTION'
, p_value => 'NONE');
Any ideas?
cheers,
John

This rather cryptic message means that the PL/SQL variable or column whose method is being invoked is null.
It's the equivilant of a null pointer exeception in java...

ORA-30625: method dispatch on NULL SELF argument is disallowed

I have streams setup with table rules.( 3 tiers). It is working fine, besides for one table when insert record, apply has error "ORA-30625: method dispatch on NULL SELF argument is disallowed". I did include all columns in supplemental log group always. Is any limit for max columns for Oracle Streams. This table has 137 columns and I created 6 supplemental log groups.
Please help

Hi,
No restrictions on number of columns in 10.2. Do you have any rule transformation or dml handler?
Check also on your bdump if the apply generated any trace file that will allow you to identify the root cause of this error.
Here is an explanation of why that error happens:
The following error occurs when passing an uninitialized object to an Object's member procedure/function:
ORA-30625: method dispatch on NULL SELF argument is disallowed
The following illustrates the error by first creating the Object specification. Notice there is one member procedure "initialize_object" that passes in SELF.
CREATE OR REPLACE TYPE role_type AS OBJECT (
role_name VARCHAR2(30),
MEMBER PROCEDURE initialize_object(SELF IN OUT role_type));
The next step is to create the body of the Object's member procedure. There is no need for any actual code as the error occurs when the NULL is attempted to be passed.
CREATE OR REPLACE TYPE BODY role_type AS
MEMBER PROCEDURE initialize_object (SELF IN OUT role_type) IS
BEGIN
NULL;
END initialize_object;
END;
The following anonymous block passes in a NULL (Uninitialized Object) to the member procedure initialize_object.
DECLARE
V_TEMP role_type;
BEGIN
ROLE_TYPE.initialize_object(V_temp);
END;
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-30625: method dispatch on NULL SELF argument is disallowed
ORA-06512: at line 4
The example has nothing to do with streams but maybe you are trying to invoke an error handler or dml handler that is causing this issue.

Web Service help - ORA-30625: method dispatch on NULL SELF errors

Hi All
I could do with some assistance getting Web service's up & running on my application
I've been following this guide but altering to fit in with our internal web services... the Internet police here at work have youtube blocked off so unable to test end to end using the OTN tutorial
I've created a web service named PASSWORDGEN with the results stored in the collection PASSWORDRESULT
On my page I've created the process that invokes the webservice PASSWORDGEN which is set to run on load - before header - seq #10
then created the pl/sql anonymous block process which is set to run on load - before header - seq #20
I've used the pl/sql example given in the tutorial but substituted their references to collections with my named collection .
declare
l_clob clob;
l_xml xmltype;
l_val clob;
begin
for c1 in (select clob001
from apex_collections
where collection_name = 'PASSWORDRESULT'
) loop
l_clob := c1.clob001;
exit;
end loop;
l_xml := xmltype.createxml(l_clob);
l_val := dbms_xmlgen.convert(l_xml.extract('/methodResponse/params/param/value/string/text()').getclobval(),1);
apex_collection.update_member_attribute(
p_collection_name => 'PASSWORDRESULT',
p_seq => '1',
p_clob_number => '1',
p_clob_value => l_val );
end;
if I try to run the page at this point I get the error ORA-30625: method dispatch on NULL SELF argument is disallowed
what I think is happening, from what I've read up on, is that the collection is empty?
so I'm trying to find out if the web service is not populating the collection correctly or have I made a mistake in the above syntax & trying to reference the collection incorrectly.
Is there a way I can query the collection using TOAD?
Edited by: Mr JD on 21-Jul-2010 08:38

ok so found the collection but when I invoke the web service the collection record is not populated. I've tested the webservice & a result is returned but for some reason when I either run the test or run the page which invokes the web service as a page render process the collection is still not populated.....
what I'm I missing here as the setup of the web service is pretty straight forward & testing the web service does produce a result within the test window

Trigger error ORA-30625

I created a trigger that executes a procedure on INSERT or UPDATE. This is the SQL of the trigger...
DECLARE
INDTS VARCHAR2(15);
REPORTERS VARCHAR2(30);
p_session myschema.wwa_api_module_session;
begin
INDTS:= p_session.get_value_as_varchar2(p_block_name=>'DEFAULT', p_attribute_name => 'A_INDT');
REPORTERS:=p_session.get_value_as_varchar2(p_block_name=>'DEFAULT', p_attribute_name => 'A_REPORTER');
nyspcr.alert_returned_transcripts(INDTS,REPORTERS);
end; .
Basically, the procedure takes in two values that were just inserted into the table to use in the WHERE statement of a query of another table..if there is a match a print statement appears.
This trigger worked(executed the procedure,statement appeared) on the first couple of tries BUT I also got this error message
ORA-30625: method dispatch on NULL SELF argument is disallowed (WWV-16016)
...THEN it stopped working and I still got this error message. What does it mean?

Ora-30625/xmltype

Hi!
I got this error; ORA-30625: method dispatch on NULL SELF argument is disallowed,
when I tried to do next:
declare
xml_lukio xmltype;
s1_k1 varchar2(60);
select v.lukio_doc into xml_lukio
from vp_lukiopohja v
where koulutus=1;
s1_k1:=xml_lukio.extract('/valintapisteytys/arvosanat/sarake1/kentta1/text()').getstringval();
And this is what lukio_doc includes:
<valintapisteytys xmlns="http://vp_skeemat/vp_skeema.xsd"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://vp_skeemat/vp_skeema.xsd
http://vp_skeemat/vp_skeema.xsd">
<arvosanat>
<sarake1>
<kentta1>Yo-todistus</kentta1>
<kentta2>Lukion pÃ¤Ã¤ttÃ¶todistus</kentta2>
<kentta3>Lukion pÃ¤Ã¤ttÃ¶todistuksen keskiarvo</kentta3>
</sarake1>
</arvosanat>
</valintapisteytys>
This worked earlier, when it did not include xml schema.
So what's wrong?

s1_k1:=xml_lukio.extract('/valintapisteytys/arvosanat/sarake1/kentta1/text()').getstringval();
1. extract returns an XMLType. You are then invoking getStringVal on the XMLType returned by extract. If extract returns null you will get the error you are reported.
2. Your Schema uses a lot of namespaces.
<valintapisteytys xmlns="http://vp_skeemat/vp_skeema.xsd"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://vp_skeemat/vp_skeema.xsd
http://vp_skeemat/vp_skeema.xsd">
You need to pass these namespaces as a third argument to extract...
s1_k1:=xml_lukio.extract
('/valintapisteytys/arvosanat/sarake1/kentta1/text()',xmlns="http://vp_skeemat/vp_skeema.xsd"

Hello guys!
I'm totally stacked with Error:-30625 trying to execute CLN_CH_EVENT_SUBSCRIPTION_PKG.CREATE_EVENT_SUB procedure.
i'm initializing that type object like:
WF_EVENT_T.initialize(l_myevent_t);
and then fill it with values...and then passing to that damned procedure. And then em getting error :(.
Could you please somebody explain me what i'm doing wrong or what should i do to avoid this error?!?
thanks in advance.

To allow anyone the chance to answer your question, you will need to post the relevant code that leads up to the error code you reference. Without that information, silence is all you can hope to receive.

ORA-30625: method dispatch on NULL SELF argument on apply_dml_hanlder

My apply dml handler fails with this message. This dml handler is being called on 10 tables. Is there any way to get the LCR info from the SCN number to track on which table it failed and debug the issue?
Thank You

your LCR is most probably in the spill over queue rather tha in the queue table. You have to open the AQ$_<cap table>P table. it contains columns of type anydata that embedded the LCR. It is not an easy task but it has been scripted.
download smenu from www.smenu.org, install and type
'aq -lq' to see all your queue tables
'aq -readp <queue table>' to list contents of the queue table and the MSGID and SCN.
pick one MSG that you want to see :
'aq -readp <queue table> -key <MSGID> and you will see the before and after values of the rows contained in the MSG (LCR).
if you want to see the SQL text for this SCN you and the archive is still present on your disk your can pick the SCN of the MSG ID, goes on the source DB (install also smenu) and type lgm -s <SCN> and you will see the text of the SQL at the orgin of this LCR (using logminer).
I am not sure of the compatibility of Smenu for 9i. It has been started in 9I but streams on 9i is so painful that the compatibilty with this mess has not been cared about.

Not sure where Am I doing wrong. Please help
Thanks,

Okay, I have removed the "ApprovalStatus" and replaced with the xmlns. Also, based on the description of child:node(), I think, then it is required.
Now I am getting following error
ORA-30625: method dispatch on NULL SELF argument is disallowed
Below is the complete code and underneath code I am providing response XML structure
I can't thank you enough for tracking this post for so long. Thank you so much, I really appreciate your diligence.

Getting "ORA-00932: inconsistent datatypes: expected - got CLOB"

Hi:
I've got a stored procedure that is attempting to open a cursor for a SQL string and getting an error. The query in the string is only a select (i.e. I'm not updating anything). I'm not doing a bind because the sole reason for doing any of this is just to validate the SQL. I am given some XML and I translate it into SQL and before saving the XML off because I want to verify that it actually translates into valid SQL. The validation test is dmbs_sql.parse().
I've tried using varchar2 and CLOB as the sql string argument but still get the error. What is the inconsistency that Oracle is complaining about?
Oracle 10.2.0.3 on RHEL 4 (64 bit)
Thanks
PROCEDURE SaveXML(XMLClob in CLOB, status out integer) IS
    chandle                      INT;
    sqlString                     VARCHAR2(4000);
    errorString                  VARCHAR2(300) := 'NO ERRORS.' ;

    stylesheetClob             CLOB;   -- The stylesheet in CLOB form.

    status := -1;

        where name = 'SAVED_QUERY.XSL' and rownum = 1

    if(length(sqlString) <= 0) then
        dbms_output.put_line('NO sqlString obtained!');
        return;
    end if;
    begin -- catch the exception in this block
        dbms_output.put_line('SaveXML(): parsing XML now.');
        -- The parse command wants a cursor
        chandle := dbms_sql.open_cursor;
        Dbms_sql.parse(chandle, sqlString, DBMS_SQL.NATIVE);
        DBMS_SQL.CLOSE_CURSOR(chandle);
        status := 0;
        dbms_output.put_line('SaveXML() successful!! Returning...');
        EXCEPTION
            WHEN OTHERS THEN
            DBMS_SQL.CLOSE_CURSOR(chandle);

    end ;
EXCEPTION
WHEN OTHERS THEN
   DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('Exception occurred ' || SQLERRM);
status := 0;
END SaveXML;

Do you mean
select dbms_lob.SUBSTR(stylesheet ,1,2000) into stylesheetClob from saved_query_stylesheets
where name = 'SAVED_QUERY.XSL' and rownum = 1
order by version desc;
I modified it to be dbms_lob.SUBLSTR(stylesheet,1,4000)...
and now I get a different errror.
Exception occurred ORA-30625: method dispatch on NULL SELF argument is disallowed
This makes me think that internally there is an extract on an empty node or something, i.e., it's data related?
Update: I think I'm getting the 30625 error because one of my clobs is null and I'm getting the final query string by using (among other things) a command that includes getStringVar().
SQLQuery := dbms_xmlgen.convert(xmldata.transform(xsldata).getStringVal(), dbms_xmlgen.ENTITY_DECODE);So I guess I'll track that down :)
SUBSTR(
STR1 CLOB CHARACTER SET ANY_CS,
POS NUMBER,                -- starting position
LEN NUMBER := 2147483647) -- number of characters
RETURN CLOB CHARACTER SET STR1%CHARSET;
