Piecewise Insert into structured storage

I understand that XMLUPDATE can handle piecewise update, but what do I do for piecewise insert. I want to add a sub-tree (document fragment) conformant with the registered schema to the xml document, without re-writing the whole (possibly very, very large and growing) document, and retaining all the power and abstraction of structured storage.
It would be nice to get an XMLType via an XPath select, get the DOM object from the XMLTYpe, operate on the DOM, and see those changes reflected in the database. I can do all that, but the changes to the DOM seem to be in-memory only.
How do I add a sub-node to an existing structured document?
Thanks,
David

HI,
Oracle version is 11.1.0.7.0.
Metalink found three bugs related to the error ORA-00600: Interner Fehlercode, Argumente: [qmxConvUnkType], [], [], [], [],
The bugs are:
BUG 8644684 ORA-600 [QMXCONVUNKTYPE] DURING INSERT INTO SCHEMA-BASED TABLE
BUG 8671408 INSERT OF XML DOC INTO AN XML SCHEMA STORED AS BINARY XML FAILS WITH ORA-30937

Loading XML Document into Structured Storage

HI Everybody,
I am confronted with a BUG in Oracle which is being fixed but will last a long time. I have a relatively complex Schema with manifold includes, imports and inheritances which I can register successfully. The object-relational table is also generated. But loading the instance document with INSERT INTO... fails due to severe internal error. I have not yet tried SQL*Loader, however.
Please, does anyone know a safe alternative method to parse and load? Structured storage is mandatory because I need to retrieve individual elements and attributes. Instance documents are big, ca. 20 MB.
Thanks, regards
Miklos HERBOLY

How can I insert C structures that have character pointers into DBD file

Hello~
I am changing from a file system I made into DBD.
And I had no choice to convert structures that have character point members
to insert them into the DBD file
for examble,
If there is a structure as below
typedef struct
int IndexKey;
int groupID;
char* name;
char* pNum;
char* pAddr;
char* pMemo;
} TsomeRec;
I made a structure to convert as below
typedef struct
int IndexKey;
int groupID;
char name[MAX_NAME_LEN];
char pNum[MAX_NUM_LEN];
char pAddr[MAX_ADDR_LEN];
char pMemo[MAX_MEMO_LEN];
} TsomeRec2;
But, there are too many structures to convert.
So, I am seeking for the most efficient way to insert these structures into DBD files, considering Performance.
Frankly speaking, I'am not proficient.
please describe as specific as possible.
Thank you~

Hi,
Review the documentation section title Using C Structures with DB, in particular the subsection called C Structures with Pointers. It will explain the way to store structures that have pointers.

hi jagadesh,

ORA-00604 error when trying to insert into a XMLTYPE stored as BINARY

Hi. Here's the scenario.
Here's my Oracle version:
Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition Release 11.1.0.7.0 - 64bit Production
With the Partitioning, OLAP, Data Mining and Real Application Testing options
The database is encoded as AL32UTF8.
First I create the table...
create table binary_table (the_field XMLTYPE) XMLTYPE COLUMN the_field STORE AS BINARY XML;
Now I try and do an insert like this...
insert into binary_table values (xmltype('<?xml version="1.0" encoding="AL32UTF8"?>' || chr(10) || '<a>b</a>' || chr(10)));
and I get this error:
SQLState: 60000
ErrorCode: 604
Position: 122
Error: ORA-00604: error occurred at recursive SQL level 1
ORA-00942: table or view does not exist
If I create the table with a CLOB storage option for the XMLTYPE, the insert works fine. If I repeat these steps in another database instance, same Oracle version, that's encoded as WE8ISO8859P1, it also works fine. It behaves the same in several clients. I also tried it with several different values for NLS_LANG and that didn't help.
I do want to say that this database instance has just been set up especially for me so I can do some R&D on AL32UTF8 and XMLTYPE to see if it fits our needs. So it might be a problem with the database instance.
Thanks for taking a look at this.

Hi,
Use this
Load data
append Into TABLE HS_HRMIG_EMP_PER_20MAR07 fields terminated by "," optionally enclosed by '"'
TRAILING NULLCOLS.
Here optional enclosed by is for doubles quotes which should needs to place in single quotes.
like '"'.
try with this.

Looking data from more than one table and inserting into another.

Hello,
I am giving you the Table structures as per my requirement..
CREATE TABLE TEMP_A
(NAME VARCHAR2(100) primary key);
CREATE TABLE TEMP_B
(STRUCTURE VARCHAR2(10));
CREATE TABLE TEMP_C
( NAME VARCHAR2(100),
STRUCTURE VARCHAR2(10),
VALUE VARCHAR2(10));
Alter table TEMP_C
add constraint fk_name_tempc foreign key(name) references TEMP_A(name)
INSERT INTO TEMP_A VALUES('SMITH');
INSERT INTO TEMP_A VALUES('ALLEN');
INSERT INTO TEMP_A VALUES('WARD');
INSERT INTO TEMP_A VALUES('JONES');
COMMIT;
INSERT INTO TEMP_B VALUES('IN');
INSERT INTO TEMP_B VALUES('IN_MIN');
INSERT INTO TEMP_B VALUES('IN_TYP');
INSERT INTO TEMP_B VALUES('IN_MAX');
INSERT INTO TEMP_B VALUES('DIP');
INSERT INTO TEMP_B VALUES('TIM');
COMMIT;
INSERT INTO TEMP_c VALUES('SMITH','C1','');
INSERT INTO TEMP_c VALUES('SMITH','C2','');
INSERT INTO TEMP_c VALUES('SMITH','D1','');
INSERT INTO TEMP_c VALUES('ALLEN','D2','');
INSERT INTO TEMP_c VALUES('ALLEN','R1','');
INSERT INTO TEMP_c VALUES('WARD','R2','');
COMMIT;
i want to say is it should insert into table 'TEMP_C' values as :
For 'SMITH' there should be (6 * 3) = 18 records.
( 6 distinct values of TEMP_B for SMITH to be inserted into TEMP_C against 'C1')
( 6 distinct values of TEMP_B for SMITH to be inserted into TEMP_C against 'C2')
( 6 distinct values of TEMP_B for SMITH to be inserted into TEMP_C against 'D1')
For 'ALLEN' there should be (6 * 2) = 12 records.
( 6 distinct values of TEMP_B for ALLEN to be inserted into TEMP_C against 'D2')
( 6 distinct values of TEMP_B for ALLEN to be inserted into TEMP_C against 'R1')
For 'WARD' there should be (6 * 1) = 6 records.
( 6 distinct values of TEMP_B for WARD to be inserted into TEMP_C against 'R2')
Like this if there are records for JONES also , it should also do the same way( Depending on the No. of records present
in the table 'TEMP_C' for 'JONES').
Thanks in advance,
Amkotz

Why doesn't this insert into XMLTYPE work?

Hi again. Hopefully I'll be answering questions soon, but meanwhile I've got another one.
I'm working in this environment...
Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition Release 11.1.0.7.0 - 64bit Production
The encoding for the database is WE8ISO8859P1.
in SQL Plus. I created a table with an XMLTYPE column stored as binary. Here's the desc...
PS: BWDSTG> desc bwddoc;
Name Null? Type
SUNAME VARCHAR2(100)
SOURCE_DOC_TEXT CLOB
DOC_TEXT SYS.XMLTYPE STORAGE BINARY
LAST_UPDATE_DATE DATE
PS: BWDSTG>
The following error also occurred when I created the same table with a storage type of CLOB for DOC_TEXT. Here's the error I can't figure out...
PS: BWDSTG> insert into bwddoc (doc_text) values ('<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
2 <a>–</a>
3 ');
insert into bwddoc (doc_text) values ('<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-31011: XML parsing failed
ORA-19202: Error occurred in XML processing
LPX-00217: invalid character 8211 (U+2013)
Error at line 2
It accepts the command if I replace the – with plain text. Why does it care what the character entity reference is? It's changing the encoding pseudoattribute in the xml declaration to US-ASCII anyway, and this character entity should be perfectly acceptable. I'd appreciate it if anyone knows the reason for this (or what I'm not understanding, which as always is a distinct possibility).

Sorry, let me try again. SQLPlus doesn't have a problem with the multiple lines, so I'm just trying to insert the XML.
PS: BWDSTG> insert into bwddoc (doc_text) values (xmltype('<?xml version="1.0" encoding="US-ASCII"?>
2 <a>—</a>
3 '));
insert into bwddoc (doc_text) values (xmltype('<?xml version="1.0" encoding="US-ASCII"?>
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-31011: XML parsing failed
ORA-19202: Error occurred in XML processing
LPX-00217: invalid character 8212 (U+2014)
Error at line 2
ORA-06512: at "SYS.XMLTYPE", line 310
ORA-06512: at line 1
My problem is that...
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="US-ASCII"?>
<a>—</a>
should be perfectly good HTML. libxml2 and expat both have no problem parsing it. They just leave — (which is some kind of a dash) alone. But Oracle XMLType doesn't like it for some reason. I need to load a lot of data that has numeric character entities like this but I can't 'til I get this resolved.

SELECT * cannot be used in an INSERT INTO query when the source or destination table contains a multivalued field

Hi,
I am using Access 2013 and I have the following VBA code,
strSQL = "INSERT INTO Master SELECT * from Master WHERE ID = 1"
DoCmd.RunSQL (strSQL)
when the SQL statement is run, I got this error.
SELECT * cannot be used in an INSERT INTO query when the source or destination table contains a multivalued field
Any suggestion on how to get around this?
Please advice and your help would be greatly appreciated!

Rather than modelling the many-to-many relationship type by means of a multi-valued field, do so by the conventional means of modelling the relationship type by a table which resolves it into two one-to-many relationship types. You give no indication
of what is being modelled here, so let's assume a generic model where there is a many-to-many relationship type between Masters and Slaves, for which you'd have the following tables:
Masters
....MasterID (PK)
....Master
Slaves
....SlaveID (PK)
....Slave
and to model the relationship type:
SlaveMastership
....SlaveID (FK)
....MasterID (FK)
The primary key of the last is a composite one of the two foreign keys SlaveID and MasterID.
You appear to be trying to insert duplicates of a subset of rows from the same table. With the above structure, to do this you would firstly have to insert rows into the referenced table Masters for all columns bar the key, which, presuming this to be
an autonumber column, would be assigned new values automatically. To map these new rows to the same rows in Slaves as the original subset you would then need to insert rows into SlaveMastership with the same SlaveID values as those in Slaves referenced
by those rows in Slavemastership which referenced the keys of the original subset of rows from Masters, and the MasterID values of the rows inserted in the first insert operation. This would require joins to be made between the original and the new subsets
of rows in two instances of Masters on other columns which constitute a candidate key of Masters, so that the rows from SlaveMastership can be identified.
You'll find examples of these sort of insert operations in DecomposerDemo.zip in my public databases folder at:
https://onedrive.live.com/?cid=44CC60D7FEA42912&id=44CC60D7FEA42912!169
If you have difficulty opening the link copy its text (NB, not the link location) and paste it into your browser's address bar.
In this little demo file non-normalized data from Excel is decomposed into a set of normalized tables. Unlike your situation this does not involve duplication of rows into the same table, but the methodology for the insertion of rows into a table which
models a many-to-many relationship type is broadly the same.
The fact that you have this requirement to duplicate a subset of rows into the same table, however, does make me wonder about the validity of the underlying logical model. I think it would help us if you could describe in detail just what in real world
terms is being modelled by this table, and the purpose of the insert operation which you are attempting.

Pl/sql block with "insert into" and schema qualified table throws "error"

Simplified test case:
Oracle9i EE Release 9.2.0.3.0
Oracle JDeveloper 9.0.3.2 Build 1145
create user u1 identified by u1
default tablespace users
quota unlimited on users;
grant connect, resource to u1;
revoke unlimited tablespace from u1;
create user u2 identified by u2
default tablespace users
quota unlimited on users;
grant connect, resource to u2;
revoke unlimited tablespace from u2;
As user u2:
create table u2.t
c1 number
grant select, update, insert, delete on u2.t to u1;
As user u1:
create or replace package test_pkg as
procedure do_insert (p_in number);
end;
create or replace package body test_pkg as
procedure do_insert (p_in number) is
begin
insert into u2.t values (p_in);
commit;
end;
end;
All of the above works fine using command-line sql*plus, and is clearly a simplified version of the actual code to demonstrate the issue at hand. Using JDeveloper, it complains about 'expected ;' at the 'values' keyword in the insert statement. Removing the schema qualification from the table name allows JDeveloper to not flag the statement as an error, but I do not want to create synonyms (private or public) to point to all the tables in the real packages. Since JDeveloper flags the insert statement as an error, I can not browse the package structure etc, even though it compiles with no problems. What gives?
Thanks in advance for any suggestions, etc...

Hi Bryan,
Thanks for following up on this. I will look for the bug fix to be published.

Insert into all tables on a Database on Test Server select from all tables on a database A from production server

hi Friends ,i need a suggestion from you on how to
insert data to all tables on a Database "A " on Test server
Select data from all tables on a Database "A" on Production Server
where id=123
Database A is same with Structures on Test and Production also all Tables will have Id column in common.
The purpose of this insert is ,as we all know Production has the latest data and i need to push to test server on request for particular ID only ( may be weekly once or twice a week )
I have a linked server setup name "LINQ"
Example for one table is below , like wise i need a script which does for 154 tables.
Insert into ABC( id, name)---insert to test server
Select Id, name from LINQ.ProdSerevrname.databasename.ABC where id = 123
Please help me ..
Thanks

Why not use export import wizard for this if you've read access to production?

A question about piecewise insert(OCI), only data in the first piece ..

When i do a piecewise insert operation, only data in the first piece was inserted into the column, There is no error occured. a OCI_SUCCESS returned when the last piece operation completed.
I am really puzzled now:(.
Who can get me out of this?
The data to be insert are stored in many structs:
typedef struct test_st{
     char * buffer;
     struct test_st * next;
} TEST_ST;
I use malloc(size) to allocate the buffer of each struct, and I use strcpy() to copy some strings to these buffers.
table mc_test is like this:
id number;
message varchar(64);
The full source_code goes there:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <oci.h>

On Windows, the Flash player plugin DLL is under C:\Windows. When everything is working correctly, Firefox finds the Flash player by checking entries under a registry key. I don't know whether this check takes place every time Firefox restarts, or at other intervals.
Other plugins may install differently, e.g., copying a DLL into a folder under c:\Program Files (x86). It's rare for a plugin to be profile-specific.
If your plugin list is not updating, the pluginreg.dat file that stores plugin information might be corrupted. This article has a section on how to delete that file so Firefox will regenerate it: [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/troubleshoot-issues-with-plugins-fix-problems#w_re-initializing-the-plugins-database]. Does that help?

Need to insert into NVARCHAR2 column in a database table

I need to insert into a table with column type NVARCHAR2(2000) in java.
Cant use normal setString on that column. How can I do this using PreparedStatement in Java?

The scenario is:
I have to read a CSV file which contains a column in Urdu language, and show it on the JTable first.
Then I have to import the JTable contents into a database table.
Database Table structure is:
CREATE TABLE IMPORT_TMP (
ctype          VARCHAR2(3),
urdu_name NVARCHAR2(2000)
);My java code which inserts into the database table is:
                Vector dataVector = tableModel.getDataVector();
                rowVector = (Vector) dataVector.get(row);
              cType = "";
                if (rowVector.get(INDEX_BANK) != null) {
                    cType = rowVector.get(INDEX_CTYPE).toString();
                urduName = "";
                if (rowVector.get(INDEX_URDU_NAME) != null) {
                    urduName = rowVector.get(INDEX_URDU_NAME).toString();
                statementInsert.setString(1, cType);
                statementInsert.setString(2, urduName);I also applied Renderer on the table column, my renderer class is:
public class LangFontRenderer extends JLabel implements TableCellRenderer {
    private Font customFont;
    public LangFontRenderer(Font font) {
        super();
        customFont = font;
        System.out.println("font = " + font.getFontName());
        this.setFont(font);
    @Override
    public Component getTableCellRendererComponent(JTable table,
            Object value, boolean isSelected, boolean hasFocus, int row, int column) {
        if (value != null) {
            if (value instanceof String) {
                setText((String) value);
                return this;
        return this;
    @Override
    public Font getFont() {
        return customFont;
    // overriding other methods for performance reasons only
    @Override
    public void invalidate() {
    @Override
    public boolean isOpaque() {
        return true;
    @Override
    public void repaint() {
    @Override
    public void revalidate() {
    @Override
    public void validate() {
}I applied the renderer on the column as:
        TableColumn col = IATable.getColumnModel().getColumn(INDEX_URDU_NAME);
        LangFontRenderer langRenderer = new LangFontRenderer(new java.awt.Font("Urdu Naskh Asiatype", 0, 11));
        col.setCellRenderer(langRenderer);It does not give any error but when i query on the database table it does not show the column data in Urdu language.
Also it does not show the correct value on JTable column, some un-identified symbols.
Furthermore when I open the CSV file in notepad, it shows the correct language in that column, as I have installed the Urdu language and font on my system.

Insert into table error - ora-01722 invalid number

Need some assistance with inserting data into a table. The date column keeps on failing to insert.
here is my insert statement
insert into tab_mod_history (TABLE_OWNER, TABLE_NAME, PARTITION_NAME, SUBPARTITION_NAME, INSERTS, UPDATES, DELETES, TIMESTAMP, TRUNCATED)
values ('$i_owner','$i_table','$i_part_name','$i_subpart_name','$i_ins','$i_upd','$i_del','$time','$trunc');Script loads data for partition tables, but not normal tables with the timestamp column
I select the data using this select statement:
select table_owner, table_name, partition_name, subpartition_name, inserts, updates, deletes, timestamp, truncated
from dba_tab_modifications
where table_owner in ('scott','MAC')
order by table_name;

ok here are the errors:
values ('MAC','WC_MST','11','1','1','12/04/2011','NO','','')
ERROR at line 2:
ORA-01722: invalid number
Session altered.
values ('MAC','WF_05A','208','128','208','18/02/2011','NO','','')

DROP_SEGMENTS                                      NUMBERI used the column names to create the variables..that is why $time was used.
How else could I have done it????
thought this was easy..but to my dismay...

Trigger on Insert into a custom table from external application

This is the problem I am facing.
External Application using a different schema lets say extdb on a different server. This writes into a table in a schema called appscustom schema. Appscustom schema is under Oracle Apps.
A trigger in Oracle Apps to be executed on insert into the appscustom schema table.
This trigger inturn will run a concurrent job to create the invoice and gl interface tables.
THe problem I am facing is, The trigger get executed but the concurrent job does not get triggered/run.
Here is the trigger. Let me know, what might be wrong.
THe values for vRESP_APPL_Id,vRESP_ID, vUSER_ID becomes null in the test_pims table.
Whereas when I manually insert from backend into appscustom schema table the concurrent job gets submitted.

don't quite understand the structure of your tables but it sounds similiar to a merge statement.
(contiditonally insert, update records depending on whether or not corresponding records exist)
create table custom_table
(cust_no number,
line_no number,
party_id number
create table hz_parties
as (
select 1 party_id, 'A' bill_to_location, 10 cust_no, 100 line_no from dual union
select 2, 'B', 20, 200 from dual union
select 3, 'C', 30, 300 from dual union
select 4, 'D', 40, 400 from dual
merge into custom_table t1
using (select * from hz_parties) t2
on (t1.party_id = t2.party_id)
when not matched then insert (t1.cust_no, t1.line_no, t1.party_id)
values (t2.cust_no, t2.line_no, t2.party_id);
