Oracle forms error frm-40508: unable to insert record

Hi Everyone,
I have been having this problem for 2 weeks and I realize that I spent alot of time I couldn't get to fix the problem so I need your help.
Here is my situation. First, I installed Oracle 10g in my laptop with Oracle forms10g and Oracle forms904i. I had oracle_home folder as the top level structure then I have inside oracle folder, Oracle10g in it own folder, Oracle9i release2 in it own folder. then I created the user account "student" using the system/manager account finally I granted privilleges as follow:
GRANT ALL PRIVILLEGES
TO student
WITH ADMIN OPTION;
this was working perfecty I didn't need to grant objects privilleges such as
GRANT INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE
ON customers
TO student;
Then I created a form Application prototype and it works well I could Insert, Update and Delete but now I am creating an e-commerce application prototype I created an new account using a system/manager account as I did previously and grant all privilleges. When I try to grant object privileges the message that I receive says ORA-01919 : role 'INSERT' doesn't exist
When I run the application I am unable to insert the record through forms I get message frm-40508 Orcle error: unable to insert record.
I deinstall the Oracle and clean my laptop and did a clean installation using only Oracle Server10g and Oracle Developer10g I am getting the same message frm-40508.
Can someone please help me on this. the insert command that I am running is a simple one such as
INSERT INTO customers
VALUES( block_name.field_name, ....);
COMMIT;

frm 40735:When button pressed trigger raised unhanded exceptionplease help me to solve this>
The FRM-40735 is a generic Unhandled Exception. Please post the full error message so we can better help you.

Handling oracle forms errors (frm-nnnnn) locally

is there a way to handle an oracle form error (e.g. frm-40508) locally in a way similar to handle oracle database errors.
e.g.
procedure insert_something is
insert_error exception;
pragma exception_init(insert_error,-40508);
begin
:c1.a := 1;
:c1.b := 2;
commit_form;
exception
when insert_error then
<handle insert error on c1 block>;
end;
Edited by: mojo on Oct 7, 2008 4:34 AM

by locally i mean within the pl/sql block that will have raised the error.
an example i encoutnered recently, but by no means the only occasion i have wished such things:
function mseRecStatus returnvarchar2 is
rtnChar varchar2(32);
begin
rtnChar := get_record_property(mouseRec,mouseBlock,status);
return rtnChar;
end;
This is called from a pre-pop-menu trigger. mouseRec and block are calculated previously. A right-click on a record item below the last record raises error frm-40741 (unable to locate record on block). it would be nice to be able to do something like the following without incolving an on-error trigger:
function mseRecStatus returnvarchar2 is
rtnChar varchar2(32);
non_record_clicked exception;
pragma exception_init(non_record_clicked,-40741);
begin
rtnChar := get_record_property(mouseRec,mouseBlock,status);
return rtnChar;
exception
when non_record_clicked then
return null;
end;

Oracle Form Error FRM 10014

Code change that was backed out, had 1 Kbyte difference in executeable (FMX) size. Same form works fine locally.
I donot see why this error was encountered! FRM-40014: Not enough memory to load the form
In production, forms are rendered through Citrix.
Any suggestions will be helpful...

Oracle hasn't supported running Forms in a Citrix environment for a long time. One main reason for the desupport was because most problems reported in this situation were determined to be caused by a problem in the Citrix layer and not Oracle. Oracle Support and development ended up wasting lots of time only to determine that the problem was caused by Citrix.
Does the problem reproduce when not run in a Citrix environment? If not, I would recommend contacting Citrix. If it still reproduces without Citrix, I would recommend continuing to troubleshoot outside of the Citrix environment as this should make the debugging process a little easier.

[SOLVED] FRM-40508:ORACLE error: unable to INSERT record

Hi all,
I have migrated this form from 4.5 to 10g (Version 10.1.2.0.2 ). This form inserts a record into the database table when all the fields in the form are filled and a button Save is presed.
At the time when I press the Save button, I get this error. FRM-40508:ORACLE error: unable to INSERT record
So I went on to see the "Display Error" from help and found to be the database error, inserting into a table.
The error message is ORA-00932: inconsistent datatypes: expected DATE got NUMBER
The form where I press Save button has 3 date fields and I checked the properties of them and they are Date only.
I also generated to object list report and tried to find some answer, but no use.
Please help me in debugging this form.

I think you need to get a description of the table and compare all the "database" columns in the form with the ones in the database table to see that the types match. Somewhere there's a mismatch. Also check the block(s) "query data source columns" and see if there's any
columns in there that the type does not match the table. (check the sizes of things too while you're at it.)

not sure on the block structure of your forms.
one would question why you seem to be doing a lot of the default insert work on the press of a button (when-button-pressed).
also if you have a master-detail relationship in the form - why you don't let forms handle the master-detail insert.
seems like you have database database blocks but are almost coding as if they are non-base table blocks.

Oracle errors frm-40508 &ora-02291

hello
i m having a problem
i have two tables for my project with one of em master and the other a detail one
i m using developer 2000 for frontend
when i try inserting data in the forms developed i encounter an error frm-40508 which says "unable to insert record" the corresponding ora error is ora-02291 which says "integrity constraint violated - parent key not found"
i have a primary key in my master table which is used to connect it to details table through foreign key.feilds for the primary key in master and foreign key in details are same
i dont have any such problem if i input data through sql command insert
plz suggest me some solution to this problem
thnx
nipun

Hi,
Just try watching is therer ar no unique indexes on that table where u are doing an insert. another reason might be the composite primary key or the combination that might be confusing you.
U can try out adding an exception block to the trigger and try raise when-dup-val-on-index exception
Thanks,
Vishal

Unable to INSERT record : ERROR

SR # : 3-2184192641
RMS Version 13.1.3
Form : dealmain.fmb
Customer is reporting the following error
"FRM:40508-Oracle error:Unable to INSERT record"
On looking into detail error the following message is displayed
"INSERT INTO deal_threshold( lower_limit,upper_limit,value,total_ind,target_level_ind,reason,deal_id,deal_detail,
create_datetime,last_update_datetime,last_update_id) values(1,:2,:3,:4,:5,:6,:7,:8,:9,:10,:11)."
Please advice.

Are the values for the columns being supplied from the application? If so check the formats of the columns and corresponding values of the same. If they are matching then check whether a null being inserted for a not null column..
Of course there could be many more reasons for this error.
Give the complete details of the columns, their properties and the values being inserted into the table.

Sandy.

CHILD form error FRM-30100: Block must have at least one primary key item.

Hi friends,
I have increased the DML array of the child block from 1 to 10, but it throws me error:
FRM-30100: Block must have at least one primary key item.
Block: CEC_ADJUSTMENT_RECON
Form: CEC_ADJ
FRM-30085: Unable to adjust form for output.
How does a form know that the table does not have primary key? Is it referring to it?
Thanks a lot

I dont understand why do you increase the DML array size..
Because it says in the HELP
Specifies the maximum array size for inserting, updating, and deleting records in the database at one time.
A larger size reduces transaction processing time by reducing network traffic to the database, but requires more memory. The optimal size is the number of records a user modifies in one transaction.
The FRM-30100 comes not because of the above property..
If your query data source type is other than TABLE, it is a must to set at least one database field's PRIMARY KEY ITEM PROPERTY in the block to be a YES.

Form: FACTORY_ADDRESS :FRM-30085: Unable to adjust form for output.

Hi there,
I have Oracle Enterprise 9i and Developer 10g with Forms on my laptop. I have created a form which runs quite alright from my laptop, but on transferring this form to another computer running Oracle Enterprise 10g and Developer 10g with Forms and with exactly the same backend database schema, it gave me the following error and would not load.
Form: FACTORY_ADDRESS
FRM-30085: Unable to adjust form for output.
What can be wrong?
Many thanks in advance

You need to recompile your fmb files to fmx when you redeploy your forms in a new major version. What exact version (all the 5 version digits you find when you show the About box in the builder) are running in the two installations?

Error : FRM-41316: cannot set insert allowed property of disabled item

Hi Forum,
I have a requirement to making the following field non editable Ship Confirm Rule+ in Order Management-->"Release Sales Orders"-->"Shipping" tab
I tried to achieve this using form personalization using the below condition and action
Trigger Event - WHEN-NEW-ITEM-INSTANCE
Trigger Object - RELEASE.DOC_NAME
Condition - :RELEASE.PICKING_RULE is not NULL
Processing Mode - Both
Action Type - Property
Object Type - Item
Target Object - RELEASE.SHIPCONFIRM_RULE_NAME
Property Name - ENABLED
Value - FALSE
I could see the field becomes non editable but when i navigate to "Release Sales Orders"-->"Shipping" tab and press tab button on the field "Trip" I am getting the below error
FRM-41316: cannot set insert allowed property of disabled item RELEASE.SHIPCONFIRM_RULE_NAME
Even i have tried with the following Property Names set to " FALSE " but still the field is able to editable
ENTERABLE
ENTERABLE(APPLICATIONS COVER)

Error frm:40508

Hi All
i have a table in that table
i have colums
customer_name
customer_id
customer_add
customer_contact_no
hI HERE customer_name is unique_key
i want when i type duplicate customer_name then (which is already stored in database)
message('customer already exist');
but i get this error frm:40508
please guide
thanks and regards
vikas

In PRE-INSERT trigger check if the Customer already exists or not if exists then give a message as:
declare
   cursor c_exists is
     select 1
     from customer
     where customer_name = :customer.customer_name;
begin
   open c_exists;
   fetch c_exists into v_exists;
   close c_exists;
   if v_exists = 1 then
      message('customer already exist');
      raise form_trigger_failure;
   end if;
end;You can also do the same is WHEN-VALIDATE-ITEM trigger for customer_name.
Hope this helps.

See error Frm-40105 : unable to resolve reference to item 20.

hi master
sir when i put this code on when_button_press then give this error
go_block('emp');
enter_query;
:emp.deptno := 10;
execute_query;
error
Frm-40105 : unable to resolve reference to item 20.
sir please give me idea
Thanking you

Frm-40105
Cause: Runtime error. A GO_ITEM statement references a nonexistent item.
Which suggests that there might be some code in your form which causes this error (in)directly.

Updating detail record and getting multiple 'UNABLE TO INSERT RECORD' msgs

Help! We have 2 datablocks, master and detail block with relation defined. Master is defined with view based on database joins; detail is view based on table.
When I update the record in detail block, error message 'UNABLE TO INSERT RECORD' appears four times, then I get transaction complete: 5 records applied and saved, where the one record successfully updates. Why are we getting four records with insert errors and one record update? We don't want to work directly on the table, but why can't we use the view? please help.

The UNABLE TO INSERT record will be accompanied by more information if you press the Display Error key. Your form commit processing should stop when it gets an error like this, the fact that it doesn't implies that somewhere in your code you are not checking for FORM_SUCCESS before continuing doing something else.
This sounds quite involved, we would need to have more information about what records are queried and what's being changed on them to cause the commit.
