OracleXMLSave - Insert into table with NOT NULL Columns

Im having trouble using OracleXMLSave (XSU12) to insert into a
table where columns are initialized on insert with system
derived values (see table script below) I get the following
error message.
Message: 'java.sql.SQLException: ORA-01400: cannot insert
NULL "TESTMEETING"."S_TERMID")
Im inserting this XML:
<ROWSET table="testmeeting">
<ROW>
<DESCRIPTION>TestMeeting</DESCRIPTION>
<STARTDATE>2001-10-22 00:00:00.0</STARTDATE>
<CATEGORYCODE>HR</CATEGORYCODE>
<STATUS>O</STATUS>
</ROW>
</ROWSET>
Table Script:
CREATE TABLE TESTMEETING (
S_TERMID VARCHAR2 (12) DEFAULT (USERENV('TERMINAL'))
NOT NULL,
S_RECORDCREATED DATE DEFAULT (SYSDATE) NOT NULL,
S_RECORDCREATOR NUMBER (4) DEFAULT (UID) NOT NULL,
DESCRIPTION VARCHAR2 (28),
CATEGORYCODE VARCHAR2 (2),
STARTDATE DATE,
STATUS VARCHAR2 (1))
If I remove these columns the insert works OK. Inserts also work
fine from sqlplus etc.
Apologies for the previous entry, itchy fingers.
Thanks for your help

Hi.
try to insert data in column "TESTMEETING"."S_TERMID" by trigger.
Thanks..

  • Sample insert into table with BLOB column

    This is my first opportunity to work with BLOB columns. I was wondering if anyone had some sample code that shows the loading of a blob column and inserted into the table with a blob column.
    I have to produce a report (including crlf) and place it into a blob column. The user will download the report at a later time.
    Any suggestions / code samples are greatly appreciated!!!!

    You can enable string binding in TopLink.
    login.useStringBinding(int size);
    or you could enable binding in general,
    login.bindAllParameters();

    You should report this in a service request on http://metalink.oracle.com.
    It is a shame that you put all the effort here to describe your problem, but on the other hand you can now also copy & paste the question to Oracle Support.
    Because you are using 10.2.0.3; I am guessing that you have a valid service contract...

  • Popup not INSERTing into table and not refreshing called page ...

    Greetings
    Environment: APEX 3.1.1.00.09 on AIX 5.3 in 10gR2
    I have read many of the threads concerning my issue and I feel I am getting close to the answer but somehow have combined too many of the suggestions and am tripping over my own code.
    Please look at my sample application on apex.oracle.com:
    Workspace: galway
    User: gwicke
    Password: gwicke
    Please start with Page3, select any Agency and then click 'Add New Contract'.
    There is currently a <strong>BOLD </strong>label 'Add New Builder' that is a link that should open a popup window. Type any name into the field and click 'Create Builder'. This should INSERT the row into the builder table, close the popup, assign the new builder name to the calling page item 'Builder Name' and populate the screen item.
    In it's current state, the application will open the popup window, allow entry and close upon clicking the 'Create Builder' button. However the new builder is NOT inserted into the table and the calling page item is not populated.
    By looking at the Page Items and Session State I can see the correct values assigned to the 'Pn_BULDER_NAME' items on both the popup page (4) and the calling page (2) but the value does not appear on the screen.
    I've read where there's really two parallel universes, no sorry, two versions of the screen items, one in Session State and one that is displayed in the browser and there are steps to take to be sure the one displayed is updated from Session State as I would like in this case.
    I've entered Javascript code in the Page4 - header to define the 'passBack2()' function and code in the 'Optional URL Redirect' section of the 'Add Builder' button to hopefully execute the ARP for the INSERT, assign the Page2 items and close the popup. It doesn't quite get all that done.
    Any helpp is greatly appreciated. Thanks to Denes for most of the code suggestions I've followed.

    Hi Gary,
    I think that there's a very simple solution to this - didn't really spot it last night.
    Firstly, yes, you could use a "button" to handle the call for the popup - just make sure that the button is a URL type "button" that is actually an A tag with the call in the URL target setting. Alternatively, you could take you existing A tag and use the same class attribute for one of your buttons as this should make it look like a button.
    More importantly, though, I think that we could do it as:
    1 - On your page 2 popup call, clear that cache for page 4 (the popup page) - I have already done this in your app by updating the url
    2 - On the popup page, allow the user to enter in their desired P4_BUILDER_NAME value (not sure if you want to do something to make this unique?)
    3 - Let the user click the Create button on the popup. This will submit the page, which will get your P4_BUILDER_RANK (the pk) value and insert a new record into the table (you could consider creating a sequence and a trigger to handle the creation of a new PK value?).
    4 - Assuming the P4_BUILDER_RANK then exists (it wouldn't if there was an error somewhere), then conditionally display a region that had a piece of javascript that submits page 2 and then closes itself - we don't need to pass anything back to page 2 (see below)
    5 - As the P4_BUILDER_NAME and P4_BUILDER_RANK exist in the session, when page 2 is being reloaded, (A) the select list would be updated with the new Builder (still not sure why all my entries appeared at the bottom instead of in alpha order??) and (B) both P2_BUILDER_NAME and P2_BUILDER_RANK can have Post Calculation Computations set (NVL(:P4_BUILDER_NAME,:P2_BUILDER_NAME) and NVL(:P4_BUILDER_RANK, :P2_BUILDER_RANK) respectively) - the effect of this is, if there are values stored in the P4 page items, we use them, otherwise we use whatever values were in the P2 page items
    6 - Finally, to stop (5) happening in all page 2 loads, you would need to clear the cache for page 4 in as many places as possible - eg, branches to page 2 or buttons on page 2
    The reason we can't pass values back to page 2 is that one of the items is a select list. The value we want to select won't appear on the select list until the page has been submitted. So, we can't set the value and submit because the value isn't there. We can't submit and set the value because javascript wouldn't know when the page has been updated (or, at least, you would have to put some independant mechanism in place to identify this, which may become complicated).
    So, simply put, as long as we know that if the values are in the session, we can use Post Calculation Computations to set our fields to these values. The only thing to bear in mind is that we need to ensure that these session values only exist when we need them - hence clearing the cache. This principle should work for any type of field - but, as you have no doubt seen, simple text fields can be updated by the popup directly as the field should accept any value we give it.
    My only other recommendation would be to completely remove the MRU processes from the page as these are not required (they just confuse the issue) and you could make your PK fetch and record insert into a single process - just to keep things neat and tidy, you understand!
    When I finished with your app last night, I did leave it so that javascript would create a new option on the select list and then set the value. But the above methodology seems to be a lot simpler.

  • Batch load images (tiff) into table with a BLOB column

    Hi,
    Does anyone know any third-party tool/software to bulk/batch load images into Oracle table? There is an ETL software to regularly pull the images (tiff) from a ftp server to a directory in the database server. There is no way I can hardcode the image filenames into the control file and use SQL*Loader to load the files. Is there any tool/software that can just grab whatever files in the directory and load them into Oracle. Then, I can write a program to extract the filename from the file already loaded into the table and update the filename column.
    Thanks.
    Andy

    sound like simple scripting to me...

  • ORA-01400 - not null column with default value and item with authorization

    I've searched - I would think someone has run into this. APEX 3.0.0.00.20 - I've created a simple form on a table. One of the column is a not null column with a default value. I have a select list on that item, but it has security on it - authorization scheme. So, it checks the user and if that user isn't of the right role, it will not even display that item. However, APEX appears to still send in the column in its sql! So, the default value is useless, it sends in null each time. Even if I set the default at the Item level, I get null. Argg. That's got to be a bug...
    In debug, I do not see the item listed at all. It's not used. That's fine - but why is it trying to insert the value? I would think it would leave it off??? I think because the item is associated with a database column. But, getting around this is ugly. Having to create a hidden item for each one, and then check to see if I need to take the list value... horrible. Any way to get around this???

    I should add - I guess I can always put my own custom process in to replace the DML. Just seems like a simple thing - if the value doesn't appear on the debug, isn't set with any default value... don't include it in the DML.

  • Reg: read excel column and insert into table.

    hi Friends,
          i wanted to read the data from Excel and insert into in my oracle tables.
          can you provide the link or example script.
        how to read the column value from excel and insert into table.
      please help.

    < unnecessary reference to personal blog removed by moderator >
    Here are the steps:
    1) First create a directory and grant read , write , execute to the user from where you want to access the flat files and load it.
    2) Write a generic function to load PIPE delimited flat files:
    CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION TABLE_LOAD ( p_table in varchar2,
    p_dir in varchar2 DEFAULT ‘YOUR_DIRECTORY_NAME’,
    P_FILENAME in varchar2,
    p_ignore_headerlines IN INTEGER DEFAULT 1,
    p_delimiter in varchar2 default ‘|’,
    p_optional_enclosed in varchar2 default ‘”‘ )
    return number
    is
    – FUNCTION TABLE_LOAD
    – PURPOSE: Load the flat files i.e. only text files to Oracle
    – tables.
    – This is a generic function which can be used for
    – importing any text flat files to oracle database.
    – PARAMETERS:
    – P_TABLE
    – Pass name of the table for which import has to be done.
    – P_DIR
    – Name of the directory where the file is been placed.
    – Note: The grant has to be given for the user to the directory
    – before executing the function
    – P_FILENAME
    – The name of the flat file(a text file)
    – P_IGNORE_HEADERLINES
    – By default we are passing 1 to skip the first line of the file
    – which are headers on the Flat files.
    – P_DELIMITER
    – Dafault “|” pipe is been passed.
    – P_OPTIONAL_ENCLOSED
    – Optionally enclosed by ‘ ” ‘ are been ignored.

    THEN
    BEGIN

    end loop;
    begin
    l_status := dbms_sql.execute(l_theCursor);

    exception
    when OTHERS then
    L_ERRMSG := SQLERRM;
    insert into BADLOG ( TABLE_NAME, ERRM, data, ERROR_DATE )
    values ( P_TABLE,l_errmsg, l_lastLine ,systimestamp );
    end;
    end if;
    end loop;
    dbms_sql.close_cursor(l_theCursor);
    utl_file.fclose( l_input );
    commit;
    end if;
    insert into IMPORT_HIST (FILENAME,TABLE_NAME,NUM_OF_REC,IMPORT_DATE)
    values ( P_FILENAME, P_TABLE,l_rowCount,sysdate );
    UTL_FILE.FRENAME(

    commit;
    RETURN L_ROWCOUNT;
    end TABLE_LOAD;
    Note: when you run the function then it will also modify the source flat file with timestamp , so that we can have the track like which file was loaded .
    3) Check if the user is having UTL_FILE privileges or not :
    SQL> SELECT OWNER,
    OBJECT_TYPE
    FROM ALL_OBJECTS
    WHERE OBJECT_NAME = ‘UTL_FILE’
    AND OWNER =<>;
    If the user is not having the privileges then grant “UTL_FILE” to user from SYS user:
    SQL> GRANT EXECUTE ON UTL_FILE TO <>;
    4) In the function I have used two tables like:
    import_hist table and badlog table to track the history of the load and another to check the bad log if it occurs while doing the load .
    Under the same user create an error log table to log the error out records while doing the import:
    SQL> CREATE TABLE badlog
    errm VARCHAR2(4000),
    data VARCHAR2(4000) ,
    error_date TIMESTAMP
    Under the same user create Load history table to log the details of the file and tables that are imported with a track of records loaded:
    SQL> create table IMPORT_HIST
    FILENAME varchar2(200),
    TABLE_NAME varchar2(200),
    NUM_OF_REC number,
    IMPORT_DATE DATE
    5) Finally run the PLSQL block and check if it is loading properly or not if not then check the badlog:
    Execute the PLSQL block to import the data from the USER:
    SQL> declare
    P_TABLE varchar2(200):=<>;
    P_DIR varchar2(200):=<>;
    P_FILENAME VARCHAR2(200):=<>;
    v_Return NUMBER;
    BEGIN
    v_Return := TABLE_LOAD(
    P_TABLE => P_TABLE,
    P_DIR => P_DIR,
    P_FILENAME => P_FILENAME,
    P_IGNORE_HEADERLINES => P_IGNORE_HEADERLINES,
    P_DELIMITER => P_DELIMITER,
    P_OPTIONAL_ENCLOSED => P_OPTIONAL_ENCLOSED
    DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE(‘v_Return = ‘ || v_Return);
    end;
    6) Once the PLSQL block is been executed then check for any error log table and also the target table if the records are been successfully imported or not.

  • SRM MDM, Error, "Table with Code 'null' does not exist in repository"

    Hi experts,
    We has SRM MDM scenario, while doing OCI settings, we are able to connect with MDM repository but getting follwoing error message in portal, "java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Table with Code 'null' does not exist in the repository 'Repository' or is one of the system table (e.g. Workflows) that is not exposed in repository schema" 
    Can You please suggest,
    Thanks and Regards,
    Munish

    Hi everyone,
    Sudhanshu and Anshuk:- Thanks for your response, let me try and explain the real scenario in details:-
    We have deployed the SRM-MDM Catalog Search UI in Portal.
    We tried accessing the http://<Portal Host>:<Portal Port>/SRM-MDM/SRM_MDM
    Then we got a screen (Search UI App screen), where in we have provided the MDM Server name, then the MDM Server Password, then presses the Connect button, then below this, it displayed the Repository name created in the MDM. We have selected the Repository, then provided the Credentials of a User (Name: T_CORP) in MDM which has "Catalog Manager", and the "UI Configuration Manager" Roles. Please note that these Role names were created by us in MDM. Is it the right procedure or do we have any standard Roles delivered by SAP in MDM to map? If any standard Roles are available, where we need to check these.
    Once the Credentials of MDM User is provided, and then selected the "Login" button.
    Then we are getting the below error.
    "java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Table with Code 'null' does not exist in the repository 'Repository' or is one of the system table (e.g. Workflows) that is not exposed in repository schema"
    Please clarify; we are not configuring any values in iViews. Where we need to do this, I mean name of the iView, and what values do we need provide generally? We are just running the Search UI App application; I don't think it is an iView, because the URL shows the Application name details, etc...
    Please guide us, how to fix this Error.
    Thanks and Regards,
    Munish

    note: BPEL keeps it's own "offline" copy of table and database items. A column that is marked not null in the database can be marked as nullable in this area. (if you kmow that a trigger is going to cater for this ..)
    One workaround is to use a trigger to provide value rather than use the column default ..

  • Tabular Form based on table with lots of columns - how to avoid scrollbar?

    Hi everybody,
    I'm an old Forms and VERY new APEX user. My problem is the following: I have to migrate a form application to APEX.
    The form is based on a table with lots of columns. In Forms you can spread the data over different tab pages.
    How can I realize s.th similar in APEX? I definitely don't want to use a horizontal scroll bar...
    Thanks in advance
    Hilke

    If the primary key is created by the user themselves (which is not recommended, you should have another ID which the user sees which would be the varchar2 and keep the primary key as is, the user really shouldn't ever edit the primary key) then all you need to do is make sure that the table is not populated with a primary key in the wizard and then make sure that you cannot insert a null into your varchar primary key text field.
    IF you're doing it this way I would make a validation on the page which would run off a SQL Exists validation, something along the lines of
    SELECT <primary key column>
    FROM <your table>
    WHERE upper(<primary key column>) = upper(<text field containing user input>);
    and if it already exists, fire the validation claiming that it already exists and to come up with a new primary key.
    Like I said if you really should have a primary key which the database refers to each individual record itself and then have an almost pseudo-primary key that the user can use. For example in the table it would look like this:
    TABLE1
    table_id (this is the primary key which you should NOT change)
    user_table_id (this is the pretend primary key which the user can change)
    other_columns
    etc
    etc
    hope this helps in some way

    I'm not going to try to read all your code, but I will take your hint about the "onChange".
    What I would suggest is that you set a boolean variable, such as "changed", set to false at the beginning (perhaps in the "onLoad" event). Your "onChange" event can simply change the "changed" variable to true. Then, when the user leaves the page, or clicks Submit or whatever, test that variable to see if any changes were made, then take the appropriate action.
