Problem for create report by sql query under Protal!

I'm trying create report by sql query method, however it came out the error:
ORA-00918: column ambiguously defined (WWV-11230)
Failed to parse as SENTRYDB - select distinct t1.firstnames, t1.lastname, t4.PERSONGROUP, to_char( t1.dateofbirth, 'DD-MM-YYYY' ) as "Dateofbirth", t3.ADDRESS, t3.CITY, t3.STATE, t3.CODE, t3.HOMETELEPHONE, t3.WORKTELEPHONE, t3.INTERESTING, t3.personid from pnames t1, people t3, groups t4 where t3.persongroup = t4.groupid and t1.personid = t3.personid order by rowid (WWV-08300)
Error: Unable to execute query (WWV-10201)
The query is :
select distinct t1.firstnames, t1.lastname, t4.PERSONGROUP, to_char( t1.dateofbirth, 'DD-MM-YYYY' )
as "Dateofbirth", t3.ADDRESS, t3.CITY, t3.STATE, t3.CODE, t3.HOMETELEPHONE, t3.WORKTELEPHONE, t3.INTERESTING, t3.personid
from pnames t1, people t3, groups t4
where t3.persongroup = t4.groupid
and t1.personid = t3.personid
I have no problem to run that query under sqlplus!

Hi,
I'm cuurently using the portal inside of 9iAs 1.0.2.2.2a. What version of that Portal? By the way, how can I find out the version of Portal that I using? And also can I display image inside of report which created by Portal? I tried statement:
select
'<IMG SRC="'|| decode(IMAGE, '', SJAYARAM309.wwctx_api.get_image_path || 'noimg.jpg',
owa_util.get_cgi_env('DOC_ACCESS_PATH') || '/' || IMAGE) ||'">' stu_pic,
from stu
However, it doesn't work. It came out error:
Unable to describe SQL statement. Please correct it (WWV-13010)
Invalid SQL statement: select '<IMG SRC="'|| decode(IMAGE, '', SJAYARAM309.wwctx_api.get_image_path || 'noimg.jpg', owa_util.get_cgi_env('DOC_ACCESS_PATH') || '/' || IMAGE) ||'">' pic from test (WWV-13005)
ORA-01001: invalid cursor (WWV-11230)
ORA-00904: invalid column name (WWV-11230)

Do you know why?

  • Customizing the HTML for a Report from SQL Query

    Hello
    I have created a Report from a SQL query that outputs a list of items from a single table column. There are 65 rows returned by the report. I would like to display all the results on one page but the length of the list prevents this. Is there any way of presenting the results as multiple columns on the same page?
    ie
    Res1 Res2 Res3
    Res4 Res5 Res6
    or
    Res1 Res3 Res5
    Res2 Res4 Res6
    I thought about using a 3 column portlet region and attempting to customise the report displayed via each of the portlets but I would prefer to avoid this as it would require the development and maintenance of an additional template.
    Thanks
    Lisa

    Problem solved...
    I have used my SQL query as a cursor in a dynamic page and then used the cursor and htp.p statements to tabulate my results as per my requirements.

  • Query based Report (Reports From SQL Query)

    Hi All,
    I am facing a problem with a report. I need your help.
    I am creating a Report From SQL Query (Portal) with some arguments passed at runtime. I am able to view the output, if the query returns few rows ( arount 1000 rows). But for some inputs it needs to generate >15000 records, at this point the page is getting time out (i think!) and showing error page. I am able to execute query from the SQL Plus console ot using TOAD editor. Here the query is not taking more that 2 mins time to show the result.
    If i am executing from Portal i observed that, once i give the appropriate input and hit submit button a new oracle process is getting created for the query on UNIX (I am usign "TOP" command to check processes). The browser page will be shown error page after 5 minutes (i am assuming session time out!) , but on the backend the process will be executed for more than 30 mins.
    Can i increase a timeout of portal page, how i can do this?
    The data returned as a result of the query is sized more than 10 MB. Is caching this much data is possible by the browser page? is the returned data is creating any problem here.
    Please help me to find appropriate reasone for the failure?

    Can you post the URL that is giving you the page not found error ? I am not sure if I can be of much help though.
    In order to increase your chances to get a reply you should also post your question in the Portal Forum - Oracle Application Server Portal

    There could be a variety of reasons for the delayed processing of this report. That includes parameter settings for that page, cache settings, network configurations, etc.
    - explore best optimization for your query;
    - evaluate portal for best performance configuration; you may follow this note (Doc ID: *438794.1* ) for ideas;
    - third: for that particular page carrying that report, you can use caching wisely. browser cache is neither decent for large files, nor practical. instead, explore the page cache settings that portal provides.
    - also look for various log files (application.log and apache logs) if you are getting any warnings reflecting on some kind of processing halt.
    - and last but not the least: if you happen to bring up a portal report with more than 10000 rows for display then think about the usage of the report. Evaluate whether that report is good/useful for anything?

  • Getting zero-sized reply error when running report from SQL query

    Hi,
    I have a Report from SQL Query in Portal. When I select Excel in Output Format and then run the report, it works properly, but when I select HTML in Output Format, the report works if the rows returned are not so many (I've been able to display the report for up to 701 rows), but when I try selecting a value from the LOV that selects many rows, I get the following error:
    ERROR
    The requested URL could not be retrieved
    While trying to retrieve the URL: <data suppressed>
    The following error was encountered:
    Zero Sized Reply
    Squid did not receive any data for this request.
    Any ideas on how to fix this? Why does the number of rows returned affect the report this way?
    Thanks,
    Lorena

    Problem comes when any of the filter is applied in any one of the cases selected from the GUI.Do you mean that the problems only shows when you run the report in your browser via 9iAS?
    Which version are you using?
    Can you post the before report trigger?

  • Width of field in Report From SQL Query

    I have created a report from SQL query with 15 columns being selected. However, no matter what column width and column type (pixel, char, percent) I enter in the column formatting tab of the report, I cannot get the report to format the column to the width I desire. It is always a fixed width. Does anyone have any suggestions?
    Thanks,
    Martin

    Hi,
    Char (used for ASCII format)
    Displays the output in the specified number of
    characters per line. For example, if you enter 20
    in Width, the report displays 20 characters of the
    column data in each line. If the number of
    characters per line exceeds the specified
    number, the remaining characters are wrapped
    to the next line.
    Pixel
    Displays the output in the specified number of
    pixels per row. For example, if you enter 10 in
    Width, the column data displays 10 pixels of
    data per line of the displayed table.
    Percent
    Displays the output in the specified percentage
    of the table. For example, if you enter 25 in
    Width, the column data displays in 25% of the
    displayed table.
    Thanks,

  • Can Portal Report from SQL Query use where column IN (:bind_variable)

    I would like to create a portal report from sql query with IN (:bind_variable) in the where clause. The idea is that the user would enter comma-separated or comma-quote-separated values for the bind_variable. I have tried this several ways but nothing seems to work. Can this be done?

    Hi,

  • Report from sql query invalid date condition

    Hi, I created a Reports From SQL Query. My sql is like
    "select column1, column2
    from myschema.tablename
    where mydate > :p_date1 and mydate < :p_date2"
    I am using portal with turkish and english option. If I pass p_date paramaters 'dd-MON-yyyy' format
    (for example p_date1 = 23-MAR-2003 p_date2 = 26-APR-2003) in english mode portlet is return correct result,
    in turkish mode 'No Row Returned'. I changed my sql statement with
    "select column1, column2
    from myschema.tablename
    where to_date(mydate,'dd/mm/yyy') > to_date(:p_date1,'dd/mm/yyy') and to_date(mydate) < to_date(:p_date2,'dd/mm/yyyy')"
    and I pass p_date parameters 'dd/mm/yyyy' format (for example p_date1 = 23/03/2003 p_date2 = 26/04/2003)
    but now turkish and english mode No row returned.
    How may I write correct sql statament. My database NLS_DATE_FORMAT=DD/MM/YYYY and NLS_LANGUAGE=TURKISH.
    thanks.

    Hi,
    Try this for turkish mode:
    Case 1: the 'mydate' column has a kind of a char data type (like char, varchar or varchar2)
    and a value like '30/03/2003'
    "select column1, column2
    from myschema.tablename
    where
    to_date(mydate,'DD/MM/YYYY') > :p_date1
    and
    to_date(mydate,'DD/MM/YYYY') < :p_date2"
    Case 2: the mydate column has a date type:
    "select column1, column2
    from myschema.tablename
    where
    mydate > :p_date1
    and
    mydate < :p_date2"
    In both cases use the following parameter values:
    p_date1 = 23/03/2003
    p_date2 = 26/04/2003
    This should work
    Thanks

  • Performance of OBIEE report whereas SQL query behind it executed in 1-2 min

    Facing lot of performance issues in OBIEE reports, whereas SQL query behind the report fetch data in 2-3 minutes. Reprot take around 1-2 hrs. Can anyone help to resolve this please?

    (my 2c worth)... if the physical query runs for a reasonably short time but the report takes much longer to return it suggests the rendering process (ie. pivot view) is lagging.
    To test this theory, go into Answers and remove all views from the request and leave a simple table view on the compound view. Run the report and the report should return around the same time the physical request takes to run because the table view is a very raw, un aggregated rendering process. Table views are nice and fast. If that works then you can focus on tuning your other views, ie. Pivot view. I've seen a simple pivot view take minutes to render what looks like a simple report because the underlying recordset is quite large.
    I hope this helped. another quick trick you could try is applying aggregation in the formulas to aggregate things at the physical sql level so the returning result set isn't 5,000. depends what you're up to with the end report.

  • Adding update and delete buttons to a  Report from SQL Query

    There is an option when creating a QBE to add update and delete
    links which i find quite useful, but this option doesn't seem to
    be possible on a Report from SQL Query. Do i need to do
    something special to add them? is the option located in a
    different place?

    Hi,
    You can only add Update ,Delete in QBE Reports,
    there is no option in Portal which can be used to
    have these buttons in the Reports from Query Wizard or
    Report from SQL Query.

  • ORA-01006 during report from SQL Query

    We are running WebDB 2.2 against a 7.3.4.4 database. I have a report created from a SQL query which references 4 bind variables. During execution I receive the following, Failed to bind - :periodyr&#0124; &#0124;' with
    ORA-01006: bind variable does not exist.
    Anyone have any idea what causes this error, could it be because I reference a bind variable (:periodyr) more than once in the query? Is there a work around?
    I have included the where clause as reference:
    WHERE gcc.code_combination_id = gb.code_combination_id
    AND gb.code_combination_id = gjl.code_combination_id
    AND gjl.je_header_id = gjh.je_header_id
    AND gb.budget_version_id =
    (select budget_version_id
    from gl.gl_budget_versions
    where budget_name = :periodyr&#0124; &#0124;' OPERATING')
    AND gjh.actual_flag = 'B'
    AND gb.actual_flag = 'B'
    AND gb.period_name = gjl.period_name
    AND gb.period_year = nvl(:periodyr,gb.period_year)
    and gcc.segment2 = nvl(:cstctr,gcc.segment2)
    and ffvobj.attribute10 = nvl(:ctrlgrp,ffvobj.attribute10)
    and gcc.segment3 = nvl(:objcode,gcc.segment3)
    Thanks
    Mark

    I think there is a bug in the procedure which picks up the bind variables from a SQL.
    Workground: put a space between variable :periodyr and operator &#0124; &#0124; as:
    where budget_name = :periodyr &#0124; &#0124;' OPERATING')
    Hope this will work

  • Can I declare variables in Reports from SQL Query

    Hi
    I have a Report from SQL Query published as a portlet on a page among other reports. In the query report I am using the fuction WWCTX_API.GET_USER at quite a few places to filter the data returned to the user. Can I assingn the user id to a variable at some level & replace the fuction WWCTX_API.GET_USER with the variable in all the places.
    For eg:
    usr varchar2(25);
    usr:= PORTAL30.WWCTX_API.GET_USER;
    select USER_ID, USER_LVL, BUSINESS_ID, BRANCH_ID from crs_user where user_id=usr;
    can i declare variable and assign the value like the above at any level(Report or Page Level) to the acces the variale in queries.
    Thanks in advance

    I have found that you can't use a * in a dynamic page.
    Try this:
    <ORACLE>
    DECLARE
    usr varchar2(25):=PORTAL30.WWCTX_API.GET_USER;
    BEGIN
    for c in
    (SELECT <column_name> <alias> FROM PORTALWORK.CRS_USER WHERE USER_ID=usr)
    Loop
    htp.p(c.<alias>);
    END;
    </ORACLE>
    You can also add table tags for column formating:
    <table>
    <tr><td>column 1</td></tr><tr><td nowrap>
    <ORACLE>
    DECLARE
    usr varchar2(25):=PORTAL30.WWCTX_API.GET_USER;
    BEGIN
    for c in
    (SELECT <column_name> <alias> FROM PORTALWORK.CRS_USER WHERE USER_ID=usr)
    Loop
    htp.p(c.<alias>);
    END;
    </ORACLE>
    </td></tr></table>

  • Hi, I would like to create a database from my numbers spreadsheet and create reports (like SQL). Is there a way?

    Hi, I would like to create a database from my numbers spreadsheet and create reports (like SQL). Is there a way?

    Numbers is a lightweight spreadsheet.  If you know sql you will know that it can handle many queries and is a real databases that can handle many thousands of records.  Number is not the correct tool.  You can make something that does something like a query but it is not truly a query.
    Can you share anything about the specific application and how much information there is in each record?  How many records (rows)?

  • Report from SQL Query -Excel format only show the first page

    Hi,
    I have some Reports from SQL Query. In the display options, I choose Excel as default format. The Excel documents only show the first page. If I choose HTML as default format, it shows every rows.
    Please advise on how to have a complete Excel document as HTML format does.
    Thanks a lot.
    Lina Han

    I beleive when you export Oracle reports to Excel it is the Data that is transferred along with Column Names.
    You cannot export the variables defined on the report.
    Hence you will not be able to export the Footer to excel. (Still looking into it will let you know if i find anything interesting)
