Sdo_buffer in Ora 10.2.0.4

Hi,
i'm running 2 dbs (R 10.2.0.4), one with windows and the other with linux. on the windows box the sdo_buffer works fine (buffer is computed) on the linux box the same statement results with 0-buffer.
are there any patch-levels regarding the OS (Windows vs Linux) ?
any suggestion ?

Hello.
Im still trying to find out resolution for buffers construction :)
Actually I've got that buffer construction works much better on geodesic data.
Next statement is OK now:
SELECT SDO_GEOM.SDO_BUFFER(
MDSYS.SDO_GEOMETRY(2002, 8307, NULL, MDSYS.SDO_ELEM_INFO_ARRAY(1, 2, 1), MDSYS.SDO_ORDINATE_ARRAY(

121.75232, 31.37518, 121.74977, 31.37854)), 1, 1e-2, 'arc_tolerance=0.5')
from dual;
I run large test and got only one (currently) issue with the next poliline [ORA-13050: unable to construct spatial object]:
select SDO_GEOM.SDO_BUFFER(
MDSYS.SDO_GEOMETRY(2002, 8307, NULL, MDSYS.SDO_ELEM_INFO_ARRAY(1, 2, 1), MDSYS.SDO_ORDINATE_ARRAY(
117.56163, 23.74977999, 117.56163, 23.74949001, 117.56163, 23.7492, 117.56117999, 23.74906)),
1, 1e-2, 'arc_tolerance=0.5') from dual;
What is wrong with that poliline?
Are there any rules or workarounds for such cases? Can some body suggest me something about that?
I've found only 2 workarounds for that time:
1) I need to construct buffer within 1 millimeter tolerance. So I can round input geometry ordinates to 1 millimeter (1e-7) and try to build buffer after that. I did it for above poliline - and it works (actually it is necessary to round only second ordinate 23.74977999->23.7497799). But I don't sure that it will resolve issue entirely.
2) I can iteratively slightly increase buffer distance until buffer construction will be OK. Above example works starting from 1.3 meter. It is not best resolution because it can alter process logic.
Thank you.

A bizarre ORA-13349 case in 9i

Hi all,
We have just migrated from 8.17 to 9.2 and encountered a rather strange validation error on a particular polygon geometry.
Subject Geometry:
Parcel polygon composed of 4 polylines and 3 arcs.
Validation SQL:
SELECT SDO_GEOM.VALIDATE_GEOMETRY(SPATIALAREA, mtolerance) FROM PARCEL835105;
Error:
ORA-13349 (polygon boundary crosses itself) ONLY occurs when mtolerance is between 0.05 and 0.009. The geometry is considered fine when mtolerance is above 0.06 or below 0.008
Observation:
We examined the polygon using GeoMedia tool by traversing its vertices and could not find any apparent error.
If you want to try the geometry you may create the following files by cutting-&-pasting the content underneath each file heading. Then run at the system prompt (DOS) IMPORT.BAT usr/pass@connectionstring.

Doc ID: Note:1020247.102,Subject: Validating Geometry Returns ORA-13349 or ORA-13356 [published @ metalink]
Problem Description:
====================
Validating geometries for polygons in the Spatial Data Cartridge, may give: ORA-13349: polygon boundary crosses itself or ORA-13356 adjacent points in a geometry are redundant However, examining the polygon data shows that there are no crossing lines and no redundant points. This error may also be raised by SDO_BUFFER, which will appear to create an invalid polygon. Solution
Description:
=====================
This is caused by the SDO_TOLERANCE being set to an inappropriate value for the data in the layer. The tolerance will be taken into account when validating whether two points are the same or if two lines cross.
Explanation:
============
SDO_VALIDATE_GEOMETRY generates an ORA-13349 when it detects that the geometric properties of the data are incorrect, and that the shape crosses itself. The reason for the errors is that the buffer function sometimes needs to generate very small shapes, typically circular arcs. There are situations where the ordinates generated have a precision higher than the SDO_TOLERANCE setting. Once rounded using the SDO_TOLERANCE setting, then it is possible that the shape appears to cross itself (ORA-13349). Setting the tolerance to 0.0 will remove the errors, since rounding will no longer happen. An simple example is if there are two points on the polygon: 2.60, 3.00 and 2.56, 3.00 with the tolerance set to .05 When rounded these will both appear to be 2.6, 3.00 and give the ORA-13356 error. Setting the tolerance to .005 would avoid this error. For SDO_BUFFER this error should not be reported from 8.1.6 onwards.

SDO_RELATE and SDO_BUFFER

Hi Folks,
I created a generic stored procedure that gets a table and a polygon coordinates as parameters and returns
the table records that satisfy a relationship.
One example of fhe SQL executed by the procedure is:
select GEOFT_MESORREGIAO.* from GEOFT_MESORREGIAO
where SDO_RELATE(GEOFT_MESORREGIAO.MES_GM_POLIGONO,
SDO_GEOMETRY(2003,2000004,NULL,
SDO_ELEM_INFO_ARRAY(1,1003,1),
SDO_ORDINATE_ARRAY(-51.427259,-20.547785,-51.575114,-22.289193,-49.094429,-22.387763,-49.028716,-20.457420)),'mask=ANYINTERACT') ='TRUE'
The GEOFT_MESORREGIAO stores polygon geometries.
Running the example I got 7 rows as result.
In the same procedure, users can pass additional parameters to create a buffer around the polygon defined as the query window.
In this case, the SQL executed is:
select GEOFT_MESORREGIAO.* from GEOFT_MESORREGIAO
where SDO_RELATE(GEOFT_MESORREGIAO.MES_GM_POLIGONO,
SDO_GEOM.SDO_BUFFER(SDO_GEOMETRY(2003,2000004,NULL,
SDO_ELEM_INFO_ARRAY(1,1003,1),
SDO_ORDINATE_ARRAY(-51.427259,-20.547785,-51.575114,-22.289193,-49.094429,-22.387763,-49.028716,-20.457420)),10,0.05,'unit=KM'),'mask=ANYINTERACT') ='TRUE'
Running this example I got 6 rows as result.
This is not right to me, because if I'm using a bigger query window created by the buffer function, it was expected to get more rows
as result or, at least, the same number of rows returned by the first example.
This was tested in Oracle 11g R1.
Am I missing anything?
Regards,
Luis

Hi
When validating your inline geometry, it returns a ORA-13348: polygon boundary is not closed.
The first coordinate should be repeated at the end to close a ring in a polygon.
SDO_GEOMETRY(2003,8236,NULL,
SDO_ELEM_INFO_ARRAY(1,1003,1),
SDO_ORDINATE_ARRAY(-51.427259,-20.547785,-51.575114,-22.289193,-49.094429,-22.387763,-49.028716,-20.457420*,-51.427259,-20.547785*))
will validate.
Try it and see if your results are as expected.

SDO_BUFFER & multlinestring

Hi!
I am trying to create a buffer around the I 10 Highway from the US-dataset, interstates table. I am using following statement:
select sdo_geom.sdo_buffer((select geom from interstates where highway = 'I 10'), 0.5 , 0.1) from dual;
which results into:
[1]: (Error): ORA-13050: unable to construct spatial object
ORA-06512: at "MDSYS.SDO_3GL", line 399
ORA-06512: at "MDSYS.SDO_GEOM", line 3228 ORA-06512: at "MDSYS.SDO_GEOM", line 3240 ORA-06512: at line 1
The I 10 is a multiline so I also tried to create a buffer arround the I 170 and this works perfectly. Therfore I tried to create a buffer around several other highways, all of them were multilines and they all failed.
what a I doing wrong? Or is it impossible to create a buffer around a multiline string?
null

I found that the following statement does work for me:
select sdo_geom.sdo_buffer(geom, (select diminfo
from user_sdo_geom_metadata
where table_name = 'INTERSTATES'
and column_name = 'GEOM'), 0.5)

Help - Error -13282: ORA-13282:

Error -13282: ORA-13282: failure on initialization of coordinate transformation
Getting this error when trying to Insert some spatial data. Totally new to spatial data processing. Had to look at this after the original developer quit the company.
Here is the Insert statment
INSERT INTO table1 VALUES(seq.NextVal, t_rec.ID, 0, 'CompanyABCD', SDO_GEOM.SDO_BUFFER(p_geod, 100, 0.5,'unit=foot'), SDO_GEOM.SDO_BUFFER(p_proj, 100, 0.5,'unit=foot'));
P_geod and p_proj values were derived earlier..
p_geod := MDSYS.SDO_GEOMETRY(2001, 8265, MDSYS.SDO_POINT_TYPE(lon,lat,NULL), NULL, NULL);
p_proj := sdo_cs.transform(p_geod, 9990001);
and here is the table structure

REVISION NUMBER(11) NOT NULL,
COMPANY VARCHAR2(30 BYTE),
EXTENT_GEOD MDSYS.SDO_GEOMETRY,

I also ran this
select sdo_cs.validate_wkt(9990001) from dual
and received this error
ORA-13249: SRID 9990001 does not exist in MDSYS.CS_SRS table

Greatly appreciate your help..

Thanks for the reply. Sorry I was out of town for a couple of weeks and this issue is still out there pending.
What's the procedure for defining a non-standard coordinate system number? Does it have to be done by the DBA or a developer could do it himself?
Thanks in advance

Sdo_buffer question

I am hoping that someone can help me. I know this is a super easy fix. I am looking to creat a buffer around one xy coord. Am I on the right tract.
select sdo_geom.sdo_buffer(MDSYS.SDO_GEOMETRY(2001,8307,MDSYS.SDO_POINT_TYPE(2560808.6,387514.844,0),NULL,NULL), m.diminfo,100,.0005)
from tractblockpoint2000 t, user_sdo_geom_metadata m
select sdo_geom.sdo_buffer(MDSYS.SDO_GEOMETRY(2001,8307,MDSYS.SDO_POINT_TYPE(2560808.6,387514.844,0)
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-13205: internal error while parsing spatial parameters
ORA-06512: at "MDSYS.SDO_3GL", line 439
ORA-06512: at "MDSYS.SDO_GEOM", line 3065

The answer is yes. It is easy to buffer a point.
There are more questions to ask and answer here, though, because your data is not valid.
your sdo_gtype = 2301: this is not allowed. If I was to guess from looking at your data, I would guess you want 2001.
your sdo_srid = 8307: this is fine if your coordinates are between -180 and 180 in longitude (x), and -90 to 90 in latitude (y). Your data is not in this range.
if I was writing this, i would use the sdo_point_type instead of sdo_elem_info_array and sdo_ordinate array.
A two-d point in the sdo_ordinate_array should only have 2 ordinates (x and y, not x,y,null) - if stored in the sdo_point_type, then you need x, y, and null.
you don't need a select ... from dual to buffer the geometry, you can call the function in the operator.
Arc tolerance of 1/2 meter (0.5) is very fine - you will get a geometry with lots of vertices, and it may take a long time to get results. Below is an example of your query, rewritten, with a 10 meter tolerance. That said, further below is the same query written as sdo_within_distance, which includes an implicit, highly accurate buffer operation and an anyinteract.
Note since these queries are in a geodetic coordinate system and you didn't specify units, the default is meters.
The rewritten queries use the geod_cities table which is downloadable from OTN ( http://otn.oracle.com/products/spatial ), click on training on the right, then exercise solutions.
Your query rewritten:
select city
from geod_cities t
where sdo_relate(t.location, sdo_geom.sdo_buffer( mdsys.SDO_GEOMETRY(2001,8307, sdo_point_type(-75.13,40,NULL),null,null), 1000, 0.05, 'arc_tolerance=10'), 'mask = anyinteract querytype=window') = 'TRUE';
But best done using sdo_within_distance:
select city
from geod_cities t
where sdo_within_distance(t.location, mdsys.SDO_GEOMETRY(2001,8307, sdo_point_type(-75.13,40,NULL),null,null), 'distance=1000') = 'TRUE';

Hello Ashleigh,
Based on your code, I'd start by running this piece of SQL via command-line (thru SQL Workshop, SQL*Plus, Toad, etc.), replacing &P3_SCHEMA_NAME. and &P3_DB_NAME. with values that are currently causing the routine to fail and see if it returns more than one row. I don't know your data, but DISTINCT and GROUP BY are typically used to return multiple (though grouped/summarized) rows. It appears to be the only statement that would cause the error your seeing (more than one row being returned into single variables).
select distinct DDH_DB_NM, max(DDH_SCHEMA_NR)keep(dense_rank last order by ddh_runstart_td) AS "PATCH" from &P3_SCHEMA_NAME..ddl_log@&P3_DB_NAME.db_link GROUP BY DDH_DB_NM;I'm actually surprised that the code runs at all. I didn't think 'execute immediate' would know what to do with substitutions indicated as "&something." (I've typically seen that when substituting in dynamic HTML/Javascript code but maybe I'm learning something new). But since you already have vServer2 and vSchema2, I'd be more apt to code it as:
vStmt2 := 'select distinct DDH_DB_NM, max(DDH_SCHEMA_NR)keep(dense_rank last order by ddh_runstart_td) AS "PATCH" from ' ||
vSchema2 || '.ddl_log@' || vServer2 || '.db_link GROUP BY DDH_DB_NM';Hope this helps,
John

Ora-00604 error and ora 01000 error while report generation.

hi all,
I am trying to generate the multiple reports of same template through a program.
While this job is running, i get the following error at the BIP console and the reports don't get generated.
[101711_044115578][][EXCEPTION] java.sql.SQLException: ORA-00604: error occurred

Kindly help.
Thanks.

Lots of resources with a simple search to see what this is about, for example:
http://www.orafaq.com/wiki/ORA-01000
ORA-01000:     maximum open cursors exceeded
Cause:     A host language program attempted to open too many cursors. The initialization parameter OPEN_CURSORS determines the maximum number of cursors per user.
Action:     Modify the program to use fewer cursors. If this error occurs often, shut down Oracle, increase the value of OPEN_CURSORS, and then restart Oracle.

Ok, I think I found the problem. The view in question (SUBSCRIPTIONS) is owned by 'PHILC' and it references a table named 'SUBSCRIPTIONS' owned by 'CSBCROSSWORLDS'. There are two other development schemas that also own tables named 'SUBSCRIPTIONS'.
I believe the 'Columns' tab is executing the query below. The subquery in this SQL tries to identify the primary key columns for the 'SUBSCRIPTIONS' view in my schema (PHILC):

Using database-link in view to get around ORA-01031 error

I have been granted select rights on a users table. I am therefore able to select from his table. If however I try create a view against his table I run into the ORA-01031 problem. I have worked around this problem by creating a database-link to myself and then adding that to the view creation and it works. What are the downsides of using the database-link in this way?

The only down side I have been able to identify is that a extra session is created and that the CPU has a little extra work due to the LOOP BACK that takes place. I need to ensure the network is not unnessesarly used and therefore will need to ensure that 127.0.0.1 (local host) is used in the database connection discription. e.g.
create database link my_db_link connect to scott identified by tiger using '(description=(address=(protocol=tcp)(host=127.0.0.1) (Port = 1521) ) (connect_data= (sid=ora10g)))';

Getting ora:00904 invalid indentifier error while running i query

Hi,
I have a remote database and local database both are oracle 10gR2.Now i have written the below mentioned query in my local database and is working fine,but in case remote database it is throughing error ora:00904 invalid indentifier.
I had export the dump from remote db and import it on my local db and i tried the same and it is working fine on local after that also.
As i believe that this error usually come for column name not exist or column name or it's length or for any special character in column name of the table.But as i said it is working fine on local db but not in remote db though i am using the same dump for local and remote.
Though when i am querying the table i can able to fetch data for the any record but when i am using the below mentioned query for the same i am getting the error.As i am doing this to fecth the data for child parent related relationship.
Can any one suggest is there anything related to configaration or something else.
Please do let me know if you do want some more information on the query what i am doing inside of it.
Rgds,

'ORA-01722: Invalid Number' error while Running a Query

Hi,
I'm trying to run a query built on a DSO. The DSO has a field 'Start Date'. This Start Date InfoObject has a reference Char as 0DATE.
This Start Field has blank values due to which I'm getting the ORA-01722 error. I came across many threads with same topic of discussion. As mentioned in one of the Threads I have written a program to update 'Start Date' with 00000000. The code wriiten is "UPDATE /BIC/AZ_MONINV00 SET /BIC/ZSTR_DTE = '00000000' where /BIC/ZSTR_DTE = ' '.
Now when I see the data in the active data table of DSO the blank value is replaced with '00000000'.
But If I right click on the DSO click on display data the 'Start Date' field is blank. And now the Query also gets executed without any error. But in the output of the query the 'Start Date' Field has "#" values.
Can anyone suggest on how can I make these "#" values appear as 00000000 in the report?

In this case, you have to write a macro to avoid # in Analyzer.
Right Click-->Display Data will show data from Active table of DSO only.
If you don't want to show any blank date values in the report, you can exclude in Filter in Query.

ORA-12712 error while changing nls character set to AL32UTF8

Hi,
It is strongly recommend to use database character set AL32UTF8 when ever a database is going to used with our XML capabilities. The database character set in the installed DB is WE8MSWIN1252. For making use of XML DB features, I need to change it to AL32UTF8. But, when I try doing this, I'm getting ORA-12712: new character set must be a superset of old character set. Is there a way to solve this issue?
Thanks in advance,
Divya.

Hi,
a change from we8mswin1252 to al32utf8 is not directly possible. This is because al32utf is not a binary superset of we8mswin1252.
There are 2 options:
- use full export and import
- Use of the Alter in a sort of restricted way
The method you can choose depends on the characters in the database, is it only ASCII then the second one can work, in other cases the first one is needed.
It is all described in the Support Note 260192.1, "Changing the NLS_CHARACTERSET to AL32UTF8 / UTF8 (Unicode)". Get it from the support/metalink site.
You can also read the chapters about this issue in the Globalization Guide: [url http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E11882_01/server.112/e10729/ch11charsetmig.htm#g1011430]Change characterset.
