Problem with a simple query

Hey. I've got a table which contains only one entry:
Table "users":
id | date | user | pass | profile | last_logged
1 | ... | evo | ... | ... | ...
My query is: "SELECT * FROM users WHERE user=evo". The problem is that im always gettings a null pointer exception, but if I get the data by refering to the id (WHERE id=1) then it works! Why is this?
I've got a login system which takes the username from the form and attempts to get the id corresponding to the user value. But it just won't work. help appreciated. Thanks.

Is the user column of type string and evo a string value?
Which database are you using?
Don't you have to put single quotes around that?
String query = "SELECT * FROM users WHERE user = 'evo'"MOD

Performance problem with relatively simple query

Hi, I've a statement that takes over 20s. It should take 3s or less. The statistics are up te date so I created an explain plan and tkprof. However, I don't see the problem. Maybe somebody can help me with this?

A few notes:
1. You seem to have either a VPD policy active or you're using views that add some more predicates to the query, according to the plan posted (the access on the PK_OPERATOR_GROUP index). Could this make any difference?
2. The estimates of the optimizer are really very accurate - actually astonishing - compared to the tkprof output, so the optimizer seems to have a very good picture of the cardinalities and therefore the plan should be reasonable.
3. Did you gather index statistics as well (using COMPUTE STATISTICS when creating the index or "cascade=>true" option) when gathering the statistics? I assume you're on 9i, not 10g according to the plan and tkprof output.
4. Looking at the amount of data that needs to be processed it is unlikely that this query takes only 3 seconds, the 20 seconds seems to be OK.
If you are sure that for a similar amount of underlying data the query took only 3 seconds in the past it would be very useful if you - by any chance - have an execution plan at hand of that "3 seconds" execution.
One thing that I could imagine is that due to the monthly data growth that you've mentioned one or more of the tables have exceeded the "2% of the buffer cache" threshold and therefore are no longer treated as "small tables" in the buffer cache. This could explain that you now have more physical reads than in the past and therefore the query takes longer to execute than before.
I think that this query could only be executed in 3 seconds if it is somewhere using a predicate that is more selective and could benefit from an indexed access path.

Problems with a simple stop watch program

I would appreciate help sorting out a problem with a simple stop watch program. The problem is that it throws up inappropriate values. For example, the first time I ran it today it showed the best time at 19 seconds before the actual time had reached 2 seconds. I restarted the program and it ran correctly until about the thirtieth time I started it again when it was going okay until the display suddenly changed to something like '-50:31:30:50-'. I don't have screenshot because I had twenty thirteen year olds suddenly yelling at me that it was wrong. I clicked 'Stop' and then 'Start' again and it ran correctly.
I have posted the whole code (minus the GUI section) because I want you to see that the program is very, very simple. I can't see where it could go wrong. I would appreciate any hints.
public class StopWatch extends javax.swing.JFrame implements Runnable {
    int startTime, stopTime, totalTime, bestTime;
    private volatile Thread myThread = null;
    /** Creates new form StopWatch */
    public StopWatch() {
     startTime = 0;
     stopTime = 0;
     totalTime = 0;
     bestTime = 0;
     initComponents();
    public void run() {
     Thread thisThread = Thread.currentThread();
     while(myThread == thisThread) {
         try {
          Thread.sleep(100);
          getEnd();
         } catch (InterruptedException e) {}
    public void start() {
     if(myThread == null) {
         myThread = new Thread(this);
         myThread.start();
    public void getStart() {
     Calendar now = Calendar.getInstance();
     startTime = (now.get(Calendar.MINUTE) * 60) + now.get(Calendar.SECOND);
    public void getEnd() {
     Calendar now1 = Calendar.getInstance();
     stopTime = (now1.get(Calendar.MINUTE) * 60) + now1.get(Calendar.SECOND);
     totalTime = stopTime - startTime;
     setLabel();
     if(bestTime < totalTime) bestTime = totalTime;
    public void setLabel() {
     if((totalTime % 60) < 10) {
         jLabel1.setText(""+totalTime/60+ ":0"+(totalTime % 60));
     } else {
         jLabel1.setText(""+totalTime/60 + ":"+(totalTime % 60));
     if((bestTime % 60) < 10) {
         jLabel3.setText(""+bestTime/60+ ":0"+(bestTime % 60));
     } else {
         jLabel3.setText(""+bestTime/60 + ":"+(bestTime % 60));
    private void ButtonClicked(java.awt.event.ActionEvent evt) {
     JButton temp = (JButton) evt.getSource();
     if(temp.equals(jButton1)) {
         start();
         getStart();
     if(temp.equals(jButton2)) {
         getEnd();
         myThread = null;
     * @param args the command line arguments
    public static void main(String args[]) {
     java.awt.EventQueue.invokeLater(new Runnable() {
         public void run() {
          new StopWatch().setVisible(true);
    // Variables declaration - do not modify
    private javax.swing.JButton jButton1;
    private javax.swing.JButton jButton2;
    private javax.swing.JLabel jLabel1;
    private javax.swing.JLabel jLabel2;
    private javax.swing.JLabel jLabel3;
    private javax.swing.JPanel jPanel1;
    // End of variables declaration
}

Although I appreciate this information, it still doesn't actually solve the problem. I can't see an error in the logic (or the code). The fact that the formatting works most of the time suggests that the problem does not lie there. As well, I use the same basic code for other time related displays e.g. countdown timers where the user sets a maximum time and the computer stops when zero is reached. I haven't had an error is these programs.
For me, it is such a simple program and the room for errors seem small. I am guessing that I have misunderstood something about dates, but I obviously don't know.
Again, thank you for taking the time to look at the problem and post a reply.

Problems with Input Ready Query

Hello All,
I'm facing problems with input ready query for BI IP.
I've created the input query on aggregation level and maintianed all the planning settings. It is not allowing me to edit, when i'm attaching in the web template.
I also attached a button copy function, and i'm able to execute it and save it, but it not allowing me to change manually.
I also enabled the 3rd option for keyfigures...data can be changed with planning functions and user input.
Please help me in this regard.
We have just started the development of BI-IP, please suggest me if there are any notes to be applied.
Regards
Kumar

Hello Johannes,
Yes I've set to the finest granularity...even if it is Only one characteristic and one key figure without any restrictions...
I've checked even planning tab page under properties...it is also fine..
But still it is not allaowing me to go to edit mode...this is a fresh instalation and the query i'm working is the first one...
Please suggest me if there are any notes to be applied, we are on Support Pack 10.
Regards
Jeevan Kumar

Hello, thank you for the answer, as to your question, I have no connectivity within the tunnel, whether from Router 1, I ping 10.10.1.2 not get response ...
Now both routers remove the loopback, and the interface tunnel 0 change the tunnel source to "tunnel source " tunnel works perfectly, the problem is when I have to use the loopback. Unfortunately achieved when the tunnel work, this will have to endure multicast, and all the examples found carrying a loopback as' source '... but this is a step back ..

Problem with timestamp in query

I have problem with timestamp in JPA query.
I wonna select all data from database where difference between two timestamps is more than 3 month.
Database:
ID timestamp1 timestamp2
1 20008-11-19 15:02000 20008-08-19 15:02000
2 20008-11-19 15:02000 20008-11-14 15:02000
@Column(name = "timestamp1", nullable = false)
@Temporal(TemporalType.TIMESTAMP)
public Date timestamp1;
@Column(name = "timestamp2", nullable = false)
@Temporal(TemporalType.TIMESTAMP)
public Date timestamp2;
sql query works:
select id from table where
MONTH( DATE(timestamp1) - DATE(timestamp2) ) > 3
but how I can write in Java?
I't doesnt wrk:
Query query = em.createQuery("SELECT f.id FROM Foo f WHERE MONTH( DATE(f.timestamp1) - DATE(f.timestamp2) ) > 3 ")
error:
ExceptionUtil E CNTR0020E: EJB threw an unexpected (non-declared) exception during invocation of method .

The error is indocating improper formatting of your JPQL string. MONTH is not understood. I would recommend using your SQL string in a createNativeQuery(...) call instead.

Problem with unit in Query

Hallo Experts,
We encounter a problem with unit in our Query.
Szenario:
We use the Unit like PC, SET in Query.
In Table T006 those Units have value 0 in the field ANDEC, so they will be rounded up and rounded down in Query.
Our Problem is some Queries need the rounding up and down but others don't need this function.
Where and how should we change to solve the problem.
thanks & Best regards

hi,
if you want to control the rounding off while unit conversion you can do it from SPRO
In the BW system, goto SPRO -> SAP NetWeaver -> General Settings -> Check Units of Measurement -> Units of Measurement -> Choose the unit corresponding to 'KM' -> Click on 'Details' button in the toolbar.
Look the field 'Decimal Pl rounding'. Change this to 3 or whatever value you choose and see if it works.
in above link i have taken example of KM, you need need to select the required unit.
let us know if this is solves your problem. I am not sure if this can be done for individual queries but this is controlled by UOM wise as mentioned above.
Regards,
Rk.

Problems with basic spatial query

I'm trying to learn Oracle Spatial working with 11g R2 and with 3D georeferenced data (specifically data describing buildings in a city).
But I'm having trouble getting a basic query to work on my dataset (it works for the book example), and I'm trying to do it exactly the way it's done in the Spatial Developer's Guide for 11g.
To learn how spatial queries work, I set up the cola_markets tables used in the documentation, made the appropriate manual entry in the user_sdo_geom_metadata view and created the index. Having done that, I can run the following simple query (as well as the others in the manual) on the book tables:
SELECT SDO_GEOM.SDO_DISTANCE(c_b.shape, c_d.shape, 0.005)
FROM cola_markets c_b, cola_markets c_d
WHERE c_b.name = 'cola_b' AND c_d.name = 'cola_d';
but when I try to do the same thing on my own tables (created from citygml data), I get an error. There is the difference that the data is 3D, and the index was created without any PARAMETERS ( ... ), hence is just 2D. But still I don't get why the following query doesn't work:
SELECT SDO_GEOM.SDO_DISTANCE(c_w.envelope, c_b.envelope, 0.0005)
FROM cityobject c_w,
cityobject c_b
WHERE c_w.id = 50025
AND c_b.id = 50018;
The id's for the buildings are valid, and I used the same tolerance used by the software that set up the database.
Here's the error I get in SQL developer:
ORA-29532: Java call terminated by uncaught Java exception: java.lang.Exception: 54535
ORA-06512: at "MDSYS.SDO_3GL", line 637
ORA-06512: at "MDSYS.SDO_GEOM", line 1973
ORA-06512: at "MDSYS.SDO_GEOM", line 1990
29532. 00000 - "Java call terminated by uncaught Java exception: %s"
*Cause: A Java exception or error was signaled and could not be
resolved by the Java code.
*Action: Modify Java code, if this behavior is not intended.
So, thinking it might have something to do with the fact that it's a Java interface, I also tried running it from SQL/PL command line and get essentially the same thing:
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-29532: Java call terminated by uncaught Java exception:
java.lang.Exception: 54535
ORA-06512: at "MDSYS.SDO_3GL", line 637
ORA-06512: at "MDSYS.SDO_GEOM", line 1973
ORA-06512: at "MDSYS.SDO_GEOM", line 1990
Any ideas why this isn't working?

Hi,-
There are many ways to model a building with our open 3D data model:
Please note that each polygon can be any planar surface as long as you dont use
shortcut definitions like axis-aligned box as Siva mentioned. We dont allow curved surfaces in 3D.
Gtype 3003 can be composite surface which means each polygon should be connected to another polygon with an edge. Etype must be then 1006. You can have as many polygons as possible as long as they are connected.
Gtype 3003 can also be a single polygon. But, this will not be able to model a building.
As you pointed out, maybe it is the footprint of the building.
You can also model building with gtype 3008 which is simple or composite solid.
Etype 1007 means it is simple solid and etype 1008 means it is composite solid.
Composite solid has one or more solids which has at least one full or partial common surface in between.
In your case with single polygon, you can use sdo_util.extrude as follows to make
3D buildings. The surfaces created will be on the out-side surface of the building.
You will not have walls inside the building when you use this following function:
SELECT SDO_UTIL.EXTRUDE(
SDO_GEOMETRY(
    2003,
    null,
    null,
    SDO_ELEM_INFO_ARRAY(1,1003,1),

Problem with a Bex Query Report with Web Intelligence

Hello!
I have a Bex query (with query Bex version 7.0) I'm connecting with Web Intelligence (4.0) but one of the attributes instead of displaying the description shows only the key, and it is strange because other cubes if given by the conversion.
I wonder if there is a solution for this or if it is a problem of version 4.0 of Web Intelligence.
I await your response,
Greetings!

Hi,
Whereabouts in the application are you seing this problem? (in the query panel conditions, in the prompt list of values, or in the table block? )
also, what do you mean by "and it is strange because other cubes if given by the conversion" ?
it's worth noting that the "key and text display properties" in the Bex Query Designer do not influence webi. WebI consumes the global infoobject property from BW RSH1.
Regards,
H
p.s. if you need to understand which features are or are not supported with BI 4.0 tools, please look here: http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/d056e1bc-2794-2e10-959e-8779c5623cc5

FROM (    SELECT REGEXP_SUBSTR ('{SUMMER}|{POINT OF SALE}',
                                           '({)([A-Z]+ *[A-Z]*)(})',
                                           1,
                                           LEVEL,
                                           'i',
                                           2)
                               val
              FROM DUAL
        CONNECT BY LEVEL <=
                      REGEXP_COUNT ('{SUMMER}|{POINT OF SALE}', '|') + 1)
WHERE val IS NOT NULL
I need the output in 2 rows in this format:
VAL
====
SUMMER
POINT OF SALE
But I am not able to get 'POINT OF SALE' in the output because of the blank space, or maybe some other reason. Can anyone correct my query?

So you want something like this?
SQL> ed
Wrote file afiedt.buf
1 SELECT *
2    FROM (    SELECT REGEXP_SUBSTR ('{SUMMER}|{POINT OF SALE}', '[^{|}]+', 1, LEVEL, 'i') val
3                FROM DUAL
4          CONNECT BY LEVEL <=
5                        REGEXP_COUNT ('{SUMMER}|{POINT OF SALE}', '[^|]+'))
6* WHERE val IS NOT NULL
SQL> /
VAL
SUMMER
POINT OF SALE

Trouble with a simple Query

Hello, I'll start by saying that I am a noob. Anyways, I am trying to do what I thought would be a simple query to get records that are greater than or equal to the current date: this is my query...
<cfquery name="getUpcoming" datasource="events">
SELECT title, eventDate FROM event WHERE eventDate >= #Now()# ORDER BY eventDate ASC
</cfquery>
It works, sort of, I do get records that are greater than the current date, but any records that are equal to do not show up.
I am assuming that it is looking at time as well, or I am doing it completely wrong. I don't know? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I didn't use the cfqueryparam as suggested, is there something dangerous about doing it this way?
Nothing dangerous, no. Just "less than ideal" (in a sloppy / lazy sort of way). As I suggested, one should not hard-code dynamic values into the SQL string, one should pass them as parameters. it's just "the way it should be done".
When the DB receives your SQL string (with the dynamic values hard-coded), the DB engine needs to compile the SQL to make an execution plan before executing the query. Any change to the SQL string requires recompilation. However if you pass your parameter as parameters, then the SQL does not need to be recompiled.
It's the same sort of thing as not using global variables unless one has to, despite the fact they're "easier", or duplicating code instead of refactoring code. One should try to write decent code.

Problem with a simple Crystal 10 report

Help please!!
I am writing what should be a simple report in Crystal 10 which is acting oddly.
The report is built on 3 tables which sit on a SQL database and are linked through ODBC views. The tables are property, referral and incident and the property table is the one that exists in all cases. All three have a Property ID and the other two tables are linked to the property table through two full outer join connections. A property can have a referral or an incident or both.
I just want to create a report which lists all the unique properties which have a referral or an incident which has been created within a particular timescale.
The filter I am using is:
{est_property.est_address_postalcode} = "AB12 5NX" and
(({est_referral.CreatedOn}>={?Start date}) and ({est_referral.CreatedOn}<={?End date}))
or
(({Incident.CreatedOn}>={?Start date})and ( {Incident.CreatedOn}<={?End date} ))
Note the 'AB12 5NX' bit is just to speed the testing process up as the databases that I am querying are large.
The version I am running is 10.0.0.533 although I am currently (very slowly) downloading SP6.
Thanks,
John

I have made some progress on this. I think the problem is because the filter fails when the tables it is querying have Nulls in them.
I have just tried building the filter again with an "if the 'created on' field in the referral table is NULL then just query on the incident table" type of query:
if isnull({est_referral.CreatedOn})=FALSE then
    {est_property.est_address_postalcode} = "AB12 5NX" and
    ({?Start date}<={est_referral.CreatedOn} and {est_referral.CreatedOn}<={?End date})
    or
    {est_property.est_address_postalcode} = "AB12 5NX" and
    ({?Start date}<={Incident.CreatedOn}and {Incident.CreatedOn}<={?End date} )
else
    {est_property.est_address_postalcode} = "AB12 5NX" and
    ({?Start date}<={Incident.CreatedOn}and {Incident.CreatedOn}<={?End date} )
This seems to work but seems to be very heavy on the processing. It would also require a very complex bit of coding when I start building the proper query which actually requires four sub-tables to be queried rather than ust two!
So still help required!
Thanks.

What is wrong with this simple query

Hi,
I am writting a simple code just to get the maximum no values from a database table
The query is
ResultSet = stm.executeQuery("SELECT MAX(column_name) FROM Database_table ");
it seems to be a simple one but i am getting the message
column not found
Please answer soon

Well, it depends on how your resultset is retrieving the results. If you retrieve by column name, then that's your problem. You need to do something like this:
ResultSet = stm.executeQuery("SELECT MAX(column_name) AS myColumnName FROM Database_table ");
String myResult = ResultSet.getString(myColumnName);Using MAX, COUNT, etc, will return your result with a mangled or no actual column name to retrieve from. Optionally, you can solve your problem by:
ResultSet.getString(1);Michael Bishop

Problem with Counter in Query

Hi Experts,
There is a problem in my query output.
I have a CKF for sales documents number created with replacement path which gives the correct count of number of Sales documents.
But the req here is to create two more counters which will be counting the passed and failed count with reference to other KF1 (the value of this KF can be 0 or 1).
i.e. If the KF1 value is then failed count would be 1 .
else passed count would be 1.
I have used the Replcement path variable created for Sales Document count.
For failed count the CKF formula which I have created is: (Sales Order Count ) * (KF1<>1)
Which gives the right result but as soon as I remove the drill down , instead of aggrading the total results, failed counter still shows 1 which is incorrect.
Could any one please help me out.
Regards,
BW User

hello,
try using exception aggregation as total and reference char as the one which u have reomved from drilldown.
