Pro*C - ORA-01036, Inconsistent

I have a Pro*C program I've constructed which inserts into a number of tables. I ran accross a problem with one table in particular that gives me the following error: ORA-01036: illegal variable name/number.
It's a simple EXEC SQL INSERT statement with bind variables, nothing out of the ordinary. I tried everything to figure out what the problem may be. I finally decided to turn on SQL_TRACE (adding EXEC SQL ALTER SESSION SET SQL_TRACE=TRUE at the top of my main(), after the db login), and then the program runs fine... no 1036 error!!!
Very strange... I've been going crazy trying to figure this one out. Checked all my vars, tried simplifying the program, etc. to no avail. Other table inserts work fine.
I'm using Oracle 8.1.5.0.2 RDBMS, Linux (Mandrake) ver 2.2.9-19.
Help!!! Thanks in advance... Frank H.

Hi, If you hear of a fix, please append here.
I think i am having the same problem with
Oracle 8.1.5 running on a mainframe.
The -1036 appears on statements that do
a "SELECT FROM < > INSERT INTO < >";
And possibly other types of statements.
I added the ALTER SESSION command and
the error disappeared. Just as was described
above. I have no support. Just an "as-is"
license. So I need the patch too!

PL/SQL: ORA-00932: inconsistent datatypes: expected UDT got NUMBER

Hi all,
Wondering if you could assist? I'm exploring User Types and having a small problem. I'm getting the above error for a user type I have created which I'm calling in a function. Here's what my code looks like which I'm running the 'scott' schema for testing purposes

Any clues to what I'm doing wrong? Cheers.

The deptno column is a number, you cannot directly select a number into your type, you need to use your type's constructor.
Something like:
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION first_rec_only (NUM_ID IN NUMBER) RETURN NUMBER IS
   v_num NBR_COLL;
BEGIN
   SELECT nbr_coll(deptno) INTO v_num from dept;
   RETURN v_num(v_num.FIRST);
END first_rec_only;Note that although this will compile, it will throw ORA-01422: exact fetch returns more than requested number of rows when you run it. you need to either use the input parameter as a predicate on your query against dept, use rownum = 1 in the query or use bulk BULK COLLECT INTO, depending on what exactly you want to accomplish.

ORA-00932: inconsistent datatypes: expected - got - In 11g, WORKS in 9i!

Hello,
Involved in migration of a 9i database to 11g, R2. One of our procedures works in 9i but in 11g gives us "ORA-00932: inconsistent datatypes: expected - got - "
We tracked down the error in a statement where oracle does a fetch into a sys_refcursor. The fetch happens on a dynamically constructed select statement ( built by varchar concatenation).
The select statement selects 3 fields, but the fetch into passes 2 variables to the fetch statement. This causes ORA-00932 in 11g R2, but works in 9i.
Below is a modified procedure we built to demonstrate the problem. if you compile and test, you will see that the procedure runs in 9i but not 11g.
create or replace procedure testORA00932 is
v_now date;
v_fsqltext varchar2(2000);
v_curs sys_refcursor;
begin
v_fsqltext := 'select sysdate, sysdate+1 from dual'; -- select 2 fields
open v_curs for v_fsqltext;
loop
fetch v_curs into v_now; -- fetch 1 field, this statement fails in 11g (ORA-00932), works in 9i
dbms_output.put_line(v_now);
exit when v_curs%notfound;
end loop;
close v_curs;
end;
Is there a compatibility flag we can turn on to resove this problem?

After researching this a little more, this is a know bug to oracle: Bug 4381035
According to Oracle, the only available workaround is to provide the same number of define variables as columns in the SELECT statement.

Oracle 11G and SqlDataSource: 'ORA-01036: illegal variable name/number'

[Resolved - http://forums.oracle.com/forums/thread.jspa?messageID=2366331&#2366331]
I've created a short video to explain my problem with Oracle and SqlDataSource. If you'd rather watch than read, go see the video at http://www.kencox.ca/video/oracelandsqldatasource.html.
I'm trying to do some extremely simple drag and drop development in Visual Web Developer 2008 with the Oracle 11g database and ODP.NET. According to Oracle, "The data provider can be used with the latest .NET Framework 3.5 version. "
The SELECT statement works fine, but any attempt to use UPDATE via the SQLDataSource UpdateCommand nets me the infamous 'ORA-01036: illegal variable name/number' error.
I wouldn't mind using one of my MSDN Support Incidents to have Microsoft take a look at this issue, but I'm not sure the problem is Microsoft's. It seems like Oracle is doing a poor job in its Visual Studio integration.
Question: Has anyone successfully used an UpdateCommand statement in SQLDataSource against Oracle 11g? If so, let me know!
Below, you see the entire code as generated in Visual Web Developer 2008. To see it in action, check the video at http://www.kencox.ca/video/oracelandsqldatasource.html.

Ken,
One thing to be aware of is Microsoft has produced Visual Studio database tools and data provider for Oracle. In addition, Oracle has produced its own tools. Knowing which products you are using is important because you want to know which company you should be complaining about. :-)
In your video, you are using all Microsoft tools and data provider, not Oracle's.
I would recommend using Oracle Developer Tools (ODT) for VS and ODP.NET since these products are much better integrated with .NET and Oracle.
ODP.NET uses Oracle.DataAccess.Client namespace. System.Data.OracleClient belongs to the MS provider for Oracle, which Mark pointed out. If you drag and drop DB objects using ODT, it will generate ODP.NET code for you (and give you more data source wizard options as well).
You can download the latest 11g version of ODP.NET and ODT here:
http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/tech/windows/odpnet/index.html
These support .NET 3.5 and VS 2008.

Help with error select case statement (ORA-00932: inconsistent datatypes)

Hi,
I'm struggling to get my sql query work on Oracle..
I have a table MyTable with 5 columns ( Column1, Column2, Column3, Column4, Column5 ) all are of type NVARCHAR2.
I need to check whether Column 3, Column 4 are empty or not in that order..and if they values then I wanna append it to Column2.
For example
If a row contains the following values,
Column 2 = a.b
Column 3 = 123
Column 4 = xyz
then column CA = a.b/123/xyz where column CA = temp column
If either Column 3 or Column 4 is empty/null, then I don't need to append value for that column..
For example
Column 2 = a.b
Column 3 = either NULL or ''
Column 4 = xyz
then CA = a.b/xyz where column CA = temp column
similarly..
Column 2 = a.b
Column 3 = 123
Column 4 = either NULL or ''
then CA = a.b/123 where column CA = temp column
Here is my query..
select MyTable.Column1 as CA0,
MyTable.Column2 as CA1,
MyTable.Column3 as CA2,
MyTable.Column4 as CA3,
MyTable.Column5 as CA4,
MyTable.Column2 + CASE WHEN MyTable.Column3 > '' THEN '/' + MyTable.Column3 ELSE '' END + CASE WHEN MyTable.Column4 > '' THEN '/' + MyTable.Column4 ELSE '' END CA
from MyTable;
This query works just fine against SQL Server db, but gainst Oracle I'm getting
ORA-00932: inconsistent datatypes: expected NUMBER got CHAR
00932. 00000 - "inconsistent datatypes: expected %s got %s"
Could you please let me know what I'm doing wrong. I need to get this query working on both SQL Server and Oracle..
Please let me know your suggestions and thoughts..
Cheers,

I need to check whether Column 3, Column 4 are empty or not in that order..and if they values then I wanna append it to Column2. In Oracle, you can do it this way - no need to do all kinds of difficult things:
select col2||col3||col4

ORA-00932: inconsistent data types: expected NUMBER got BINARY

ORA-00932: inconsistent data types: expected NUMBER got BINARY
Hi,
Could anyone help in resolving my problem?
I m developing cmp beans in Jbuilder X,
My database is Oracle 10g, running on Linux and Application server is Oracle10gAs. Running on Windows.
I can deploy my Entity EJBs OK and look then up using finder methods as long as Ive created the data directly in the database using SQL*Plus for instance.
In the database I have my primary keys defined as type NUMBER
In my EJB the corresponding number fields get mapped as java.math.BigDecimal.
which according to the Oracle JDBC specification is how they are mapped.
Problem:
When I try to create a new database entity through my EJB entity bean I get:-
Error "ORA-00932: inconsistent datatypes: expected NUMBER got BINARY".
The value of the number being used as the primary key in this example is 10.
Eg:-
BigDecimal pk = new BigDecimal(10);
TestBean test = home.create(pk);
The datatype in my EJB Deployment descriptor ejb-jar-xml <pri-key-class> is java.math.BigDecimal>
The jdbc driver defined in my application.xml is
oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriverand url="jdbc:oracle:thin..." in the connection.
Ive even tried mapping a datatype as described in the Oracle FAQs but this didnt work.
21.     I'm trying to deploy a CMP entity bean with a field type BigDecimal and the table creation fails with an error. How do I work around this?
You have to perform the following steps prior to deploy your application.
o     Define the mapping for java.math.BigDecimal in the database-schemas/oracle.xml as follows:
<type-mapping type="java.math.BigDecimal" name="number(20,8)" />o     Use this schema in your data-source as follows:-
<data-source
class="com.evermind.sql.DriverManagerDataSource"
name="OracleDS"
ejb-location="jdbc/OracleDS"
schema="database-schemas/oracle.xml"
connection-driver="oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver"
username="scott"
password="tiger"
url="jdbc:oracle:thin:@localhost:1521:DEBU"
clean-available-connections-threshold="30"
rac-enabled="false"
inactivity-timeout="30"
/>

Further clarification of my problem.
Originally I said the error occurred when deploying EJB's
Correction: I can deploy them OK on the application server However the Error message occurs when I try to create a new EJB entity, the only value required is the Primary key which I pass as type BidDecimal.
If I create entries directly in the database my EJB findByPrimaryKey can find entities OK.
But I cant create new ones through EJB.
What realy baffels me is why I'm able to read data through the connection but not write.
The datatype in my EJB Deployment descriptor ejb-jar-xml <pri-key-class> is java.math.BigDecimal>
The jdbc driver defined in my application.xml is
oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver
and url="jdbc:oracle:thin..." in the connection.

could you please pointed out whether ref cursor used method correct or not?

The use looks correct but without your tables and DDL we can't even try to reproduce the problem.
Notice how you had to break down the process to find out the query that is causing the problem?
select *
from TABLE(pkg_mkt_hub_load.fnc_pipe_tot_lvl_idx_mon_hub(CURSOR(SELECT . . .Unfortunately, this is where you should have started when you began creating the process.
You are trying to design, implement and debug a process using code that has 3,4, 5 or more layers and objects and tables that have a dozen or more columns.
That is not the way I would recommend especially if you do not have experience with some of the pieces like object types and tables, pipelined functions and ref cursors. You are trying to deal with too many complications at the same time.
Here is how I would approach this if I were you.
1. Get the process to work first and then build on it. Start by copying and hacking up what you already have.
2. Create a very simple version of each of the pieces
3. Create an object type like 'tot_lvl_idx_mon_ot' with only one or two columns.
4. Create an object type like 'tot_lvl_idx_mon_tt' as a table of that simple object type
5. Create a pipelined function that uses the two new simple types, simply hard-codes a value for one or two rows and then pipes out the rows.
6. Use a simple query like the last one you posted to query the simple pipelined function
select *
from TABLE(pkg_mkt_hub_load.simpe_pipeline_function(CURSOR(SELECT . . .Work on that simple set of objects until you have the process defined and working.
Then expand the now working example to use get the data values dynamically and to use more complicated objects.
Start with something simple that works. Then build on it.
It will take a lot less time and will point out other issues with your approach to this. Also, if you try a simple version using the SCOTT emp or dept table and it doesn't work you can post the code and we can try to reproduce it and help find the problem.

OCI gets ORA-01036, 8.1.6 on RH 6.2

Newbie Alert! I'm very green at Oracle, trying to use OCI to talk to a remote 8i server. 8i client ONLY is installed on the RH box.
My program allocates a series of handles (error, service, etc., etc.) does the ServerAttach, SessionBegin, StmtPrepare, etc., the appropriate AttrSet calls, etc., all successfully. When I get down to the first OCIBindByName call, it returns -1 and that ultimately results in an ORA-01036. Here's a short excerpt from the C code:
char * OCIsql =
"DECLARE"
"xmlin VARCHAR2(4000);"
"xmlout VARCHAR2(4000);"
"warnings INTEGER;"
"failure INTEGER;"
"BEGIN\n"
"CI7.CI7(:xmlin, :xmlout, :warnings, :failure);\n"
"END;\n";
char * xmlbufptr = "xml data to be sent off to server";
OCIrc = OCIHandleAlloc(ifparms->ociparms.envhp,
(dvoid **)&stmthp, OCI_HTYPE_STMT,
0, (dvoid **)0);
OCIrc = OCIStmtPrepare(stmthp,
ifparms->ociparms.errhp,
(text *)xmlbufptr, strlen(xmlbufptr),
OCI_NTV_SYNTAX, OCI_DEFAULT);
OCIrc = OCIBindByName (stmthp, &xmlinbp,
ifparms->ociparms.errhp,
":xmlin", strlen (":xmlin"),
xmlbufptr, strlen (xmlbufptr),
STRING_TYPE, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0,
OCI_DEFAULT);
I've removed error tests from what I show here for brevity.
All is successful til we get to the BindByName which fails as shown above. I must be doing something dumb but cannot see what it is.
Helpful advice will be welcomed.
Thanks!

But of course, the MOMENT I post my plea I find my own problem. Isn't it always that way!
turns out I wasn't passing the SQL block to StmtPrepare, so the bind call of course can't understand what I'm talking about. duh. 'Scuse me!

ORA-00932: inconsistent datatypes: expected - got SCOTT.TEST_T

You have two different objects (one for localuser and one for scott) which you might think are identical but they are not. Basically it is the same as
SQL> create or replace type test_t as table of varchar2 (20)
Type created.
SQL> create table test_tab (id      number, name    test_t, location varchar2 (100))
nested table name store as nested_tab
   return as value
Table created.
SQL> create or replace type test2_t as table of varchar2 (20)
Type created.
SQL> create table test2_tab (id      number, name    test2_t, location varchar2 (100))
nested table name store as nested2_tab
   return as value
Table created.
SQL> insert into test_tab
values   (1, test_t (1, 2, 3), 'some location')
1 row created.
SQL> insert into test2_tab
     select   * from test_tab
insert into test2_tab
     select   * from test_tab
Error at line 21
ORA-00932: inconsistent datatypes: expected - got MICHAEL.TEST_T
SQL> insert into test2_tab
     select   id, cast(name as test2_t), location from test_tab
1 row created.As shown, the insert succeeds (at least on 11g) when casting the type to the table's type.
In your case I'd try
insert into test_tab select id, cast(name as localuser.test_t) location from scott.test_tab

Oracle/PLSQL: ORA-00932 ErrorError: ORA-00932: inconsistent datatypes

I am getting this error in a PL/SQL package, using SQL using the NVL function.
Oracle/PLSQL: ORA-00932 ErrorError: ORA-00932: inconsistent datatypes. Cause: You tried to perform an operation between two different datatypes, but the datatypes are not compatible.
I do not get this error on a 10.2.0.4 instance of the database running in Windows.
Anyone come accross this type of issue in 11g Rel.2 or after migrating from 10g to 11g??
Thanks.

Dear user520935,
What are the contents of the package? Where do you exactly get that error?

Have you checked the metalink about it? There are lots of articles about it.

Including a form on a dynamic page (ORA-01036)

I created a form based on a proceedure. I also created a dynamic page which consists of:
DECLARE
BEGIN
PORTAL.wwa_app_module.new_instance('1235532770');
END;
When this dynamic page is run in development using the "Run" buttons, it works. When I include it on a portal page as a portlet, it errors with this error:
ORA-01036: illegal variable name/number
Does anyone have an idea as to why? I am sure it has something to do with context and/or the URL parameters, but don't know where to start.

Using javascript, you could wrap the included page within a DIV tag or SPAN tag that is initially not visible. Then when the user clicks the button you would make the hidden DIV or SPAN visible.
The visibility attribute can be set to visible (to see it) or hidden (to not see it). Here's a page that might shed some light:

ORA-00932: inconsistent datatypes: expected - got CURSER

Hi all,
I created a Function and tried to execute it from SQL Plus, but am getting an error

I have been trying to debug for ages, but cant get to the root of what the problem might be. I would appreciate any help or idea's people could offer
The only comfort I take from this is that Oracle have a typo in one of their error messages :)
