SDO_INTERSECTION error: ORA-21779

Hi.
I have encountered a problem with sdo_intersection in Oracle 9.2 that somebody may be able to help me with:
I am trying to intersect two polygons (one is a rectangle that I have created by specifying co-ordinates, the other is a selection from a larger table of polygons). If I specify a tolerance of 0.005 for this function then the relationship between the two is determined to be 'TOUCH', which is incorrect, and the result is a line. If I specify a smaller tolerance (eg 0.0005), then the relationship is determined to be 'OVERLAPBYINTERSECT' but the intersection function results in the error: ORA-21779: duration not active.
Below is an extract from my work - the last line is the one where the error occurs:
overlap_region := MDSYS.SDO_GEOMETRY(2003, NULL, NULL, MDSYS.SDO_ELEM_INFO_ARRAY(1, 1003, 1), MDSYS.SDO_ORDINATE_ARRAY(min_x_wc, min_y_wc, max_x_sw, min_y_wc, max_x_sw, max_y_sw, min_x_wc, max_y_sw, min_x_wc, min_y_wc));
Select GEOLOC into big_wc from base_list_local where name = 'Southwest';
temp := mdsys.sdo_geom.relate(big_wc, 'DETERMINE', overlap_region, 0.000005);
dbms_output.put_line(temp);
small_wc := MDSYS.SDO_GEOM.SDO_INTERSECTION(overlap_region, big_wc, 0.000005);

Version 9.2.0.1.0
If this is a bug then does anybody have an idea for a work-around (ie. another way to acheive an intersection, without using the sdo_intersection function)?

BUG : ORA-21779 with REGEXP_INSTR function

Hi,
When we use REGEXP_INSTR in a validation with the primary_language = 'en-us'
we get an Oracle Error : ORA-21779
We tried moving the REGEXP_INSTR in a stored function and we get the same error.
When we change the primary language of the application to 'fr-ca' we don't have the error anymore (??)
As a workaround , instead of using REGEXP_INSTR we use OWA_PATTERN and it works fine.
Here is the function using REGEXP_INSTR that causes the ORA-21779 :
FUNCTION validate_email_format(p_email IN VARCHAR2)
RETURN BOOLEAN
IS
BEGIN
IF REGEXP_INSTR(upper(p_email),'^[a-zA-Z0-9._%-]+@[a-zA-Z0-9._%-]+\.[a-zA-Z0-9]{2,4}+$') > 0 THEN
return true;
ELSE
return false;
END IF;
EXCEPTION
WHEN OTHERS THEN
return false;
END validate_email_format;
END;
Would it be possible to fix this in the next release ??
Database version is : 10.1.0.5
Thanks
Francis.

Why a pipeline table function? I would not say that a tokeniser function is something that typically should require working in the SQL engine, piping rows. It can be a very straight forward PL/SQL function that returns a collection of strings.
E.g.
SQL> CREATE OR REPLACE function tokenise( line varchar2, separator varchar2 DEFAULT ',' ) return TStrings AUTHID CURRENT_USER is
2 strList TStrings;
3 str varchar2(4000);
4 i integer;
5 l integer;
6
7 procedure AddString( s varchar2 ) is
8 begin
9 strList.Extend(1);
10 strList( strList.Count ) := s;
11 end;
12
13 begin
14 strList := new TStrings();
15
16 str := line;
17 loop
18 l := LENGTH( str );
19 i := INSTR( str, separator );
20
21 if i = 0 then
22 AddString( str );
23 else
24 AddString( SUBSTR( str, 1, i-1 ) );
25 str := SUBSTR( str, i+1 );
26 end if;
27
28 -- if the separator was on the last char of the line, there is
29 -- a trailing null column which we need to add manually
30 if i = l then
31 AddString( null );
32 end if;
33
34 exit when str is NULL;
35 exit when i = 0;
36 end loop;
37
38 return( strList );
39 end;

ORA-21779: duration not active

Guys, it looks like nobody knows much about this error and Oracle support is no help.
The problem seem to be machine/environment specific.
We get this exception consistently on some of the oracle/intermedia queries on two out of six identical environments. The queries are run from a servlet, only number and varchar2 fields used, no LOBs.
The configuration across all the environments:
WL 8.1
Oracle 9.2.0.7.0
Oracle JDBC 9.2.0.5
Some online sources mention that the ORA-21779 error is fixed by some Oracle patch sets, but we've done a cumulative update a couple of weeks ago, maybe someone knows a specific patch or the reason for the problem?
Thanks,
Vitaly

For #5, not Windows, ConfigMgr 2012 R2. Anything before ConfigMgr 2012 R2 is not supported for the 8.1 ADK.
For the permissions, what accounts are you setting this for. In general, if the share is on the same server, Everyone Full or Read on the Share and System Full or Read on the NTFS should work.
For the error message, it looks like you are trying to import an OS Image and not an OS Install Package. OS images use a WIM file and OS Install Packages use the entire set of source files from the media. For OS images, you must thus explicitly point it
to a specific WIM file.

Error ORA-12560 prompts when trying to log in to the Enterprise Manager

Hi all,
I am a newbie to Oracle.
Just installed the Oracle 9i Database Enterprise Edition (9.0.1) into Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition. Problem is encountered when trying to log in to the Enterprise Manager Standalone mode using either system/oracle or scott/tiger as credentials. Error "ORA-12560: TNS:protocol adapter error" prompts.
I tried to check with some configuration and see whether the services are started. Services of "OracleOraHome90TNSListener" and "OracleServiceORCL" have been started and the database exists in the dedicated directory. Environment variables of "ORACLE_HOME" and "ORACLE_SID" have been added manually as the SID is set to orcl, which I just follow what the instruction manual has stated. Moreover, I can't get access using command prompt typing "svrmgrl"; error returned stating " 'svrmgrl' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file."
Another information is that there is no domain set in my server. Just a server with a name being assigned in a workgroup.
Hence, would you mind please advice me what to do in order to get access into the Enterprise Manager? It's quite an urgent task.
A million thx in advance!
Best Regards,
Karen

Hi Jigneshrp,
Thanks for your reply.
It is checked that the listener is running and TNS name service exists. Following your advice, I did create a new listener and another name service and use them, but the same error turns out when trying to log in to the Enterprise Manager again.
Additional information to take note for is that while reconfiguring the existing listener or creating a new listener, a mesage prompts stating "The information provided for this listener is currently in use by other software on this computer. You can proceed with the configuration as it is, but it will not be possible to start this listener until the conflict is resolved. Would you like to continue with the continue with the configuration anyway? Yes/No".
As for the reconfiguration or the new creation of TNS names service, when I am trying to test for the connection, the results in the details pane states that "Connecting... ORA-12560: TNS:protocol adapter error. The test did not succeed...."
Would you mind pls advice me on these?
Furthermore, there exist 2 questions I am wondering is that it is stated in the instruction manual that prior to the installation, a static IP should be specified for it instead of the DHCP one; hence, I wanna ask after the complete insallation, is it that the server should be running in the network, i.e. allow it to get connected with the outside network?
2nd question is that can Oracle 9i Database Server Standard Edition (9.0.1) be installed under a Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition and just a Window XP Professional?
Thanks for your reply.
Best Regards,
Karen

Error while trying to retrieve text for error ORA-12154

Hello,
I try to install php 5.1.2 on a WIN2003 server and IIS6 with the OCi8 extension without success from several days.
On my server I've a 920 oracle client and the 10.1 instant client, I copy the tnsnames.ora in the instant client's directory.
I've declare many environnement variables :
- NLS_LANG : AMERICAN_AMERICA.WE8MSWIN1252
- TNS_ADMIN : E:\...\oracle\instantclient_10_1
- ORA_NLS33 : E:\..\oracle\920\ocommon\nls\ADMIN\DATA
With the php command line the oci_connect function correctly works : the php command line use the instant client's tnsnames.ora. I can query with success my database.
When I try to load a web php script (the same as the php command line script) I have the following error " Error while trying to retrieve text for error ORA-12154" ( oci_connect( $user , $pass, $sid ) . The $sid variable have the value of an alias declared in the tnsnames.ora.
If I replace the sid's alias by something like this " (DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS_LIST=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)(HOST=xx.xx.xx.xx)(PORT=1521)))(CONNECT_DATA=(SID=xx)" in the oci_connect function, I have another error : Error while trying to retrieve text for error ORA-12705.
A web page with the phpinfo function displays the following messages about oci8 extension : It seems to be correct.
oci8
OCI8 Support enabled
Revision $Revision: 1.269.2.8 $
Active Persistent Connections 0
Active Connections 0
Temporary Lob support enabled
Collections support enabled
Do you have any idea ? Thanks a lot

The web server is not seeing the Oracle environment correctly. You need to set PATH to the instant client libraries. ORA_NLS33 is not used for Oracle 10g clients. Perhaps you have some library conflict with two versions of Oracle on the machine?

Error ORA-03113: end-of-file on communication channel in droppping a table

Good evening,
I am very new on Oracle and I have a problem with some tables. Without any reason, apparently, I can't drop some of my table. Oracle gives me this error:

and then close the connection of the user.
What I should have to do?
It is very important.

Import Export Error (ORA-06502)

All,
We are trying to migrate the code from windows 2000 HTMLDB 1.5.0.00.33 to solaris 9 HTMLDB 1.5.0.00.33 by using the export/import function. After migration, one report went wrong with the following message.
report error:
ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: character string buffer too small
The tables definition are identical and there's no data in the production table. When we try to reduce the query length from 3000 to 2500 characters, the error message disappears on production.
Is there any HTMLDB global variable controls the maximum length of the report "region source"?
Any response would be appreciate.
Thanks,
Tony

Scott,
Thanks for the response. We've applied HTMLDB version 1.5.1.00.12 on both develop and production servers yesterday but the ORA-06502 error still persist. We've also tried to use package and "pl/sql return sql" instead of a long sql query but received the same result.
The solaris instance is using "Western European ISO-8859-1" as the file character set and the windows is using "Western European Windows 1252". Is there any easy way to change the DAD character set on the production box?
Thanks,
Tony

Report error: ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: character string b

I have a form which uses a customer form/report, drop downs etc..
the debug shows it running this statement
...Execute Statement: begin begin SELECT distinct initcap(RTRIM (LTRIM (e.surname, ' *0123456789-/:.?,'), ' *0123456789-/:.?,') || ', ' || RTRIM (LTRIM (e.first_name, ' *0123456789-/:.?,'), ' *0123456789-/:.?,' )) empname, e.ID bulk collect into wwv_flow_utilities.g_display,wwv_flow_utilities.g_value FROM dms.dms_employees@dmsprd e, dms.dms_employee_contracts@dmsprd ec WHERE e.ID = ec.emp_id and e.surname like '%%' AND :p75_date BETWEEN ec.start_date AND NVL (ec.end_date, :p75_date) AND e.brh_id = 3654 ORDER BY 1; end; end;
Then says
"report error: ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: character string buffer too small"
Any Ideas?
Thanks

A select list is limited in size. I am not sure what the limit is but that is definitelly the case.The maximum size for the HTML generated for a select list is 32K.
86 options sounds on the low side to be hitting that limit, but there are other concerns to this as well. Scrolling through hundreds/thousands of options in a select list is a pain for users, and huge select lists produce bloated pages that impact load times and network bandwidth. That list of around 200 countries you find on many sites is about the sensible maximum length for a select list.
You should use popups.Indeed.

Report error:ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: character to number

The oracle application express environment is created by installing the HTTP Server on the windows server and the application express 3.2.1 components on the 11.1.0.7 oracle database on UNIX. The installation is successfully and have not seen any issues during the installation. After completing all the steps, when tried to login and click the application builder or workspace components, I see the error message
report error:ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: character to number.
This error message is seen on most of the pages when trying to accessed and not able to understand the reasons behind it. Its a brand new environment setup and not even presented to developers to test it.
Below error message is always seen when trying to access most of the components like application builder, schema comparison and some other tabs. Please advice

I think its better you use APEX 4.x version ratherthan using old version.
You will get more features and some bug fixes and also it's easy for you to get some help when you need.
* If this answer is helpfull or correct then please mark it and grant the points.

Report error:ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: character string bu

We face the above error in HTMLDB (APEX) application Ver 3.1.0. This occurs when we try to display more number of rows/records in drop-down list (LOV in tabular forms). We are able to display 200 records in LOV. When the list of records exceeds 230, we face the below error
report error:ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: character string buffer too small
the values listed in LOV are from tables (one of the columns in table)
Could anyone give us a solution?

Hi
As you are using a tabular form, you could actually do the following:
1 - In the tabular form column's attributes, set the following:
Display as: Select List (query based on LOV)
Display extra values: Yes
List of values definition: SELECT null d, null r FROM DUAL
2 - Add a new page item and set it to generate your select list
3 - Create an HTML region with no template and use the following for its source:
<script type="text/javascript">
function loadList(c, l)
var s = document.getElementsByName(c);
var lItem = document.getElementById(l);
var lLength = lItem.options.length;
var k;
var j;
var x = lItem.innerHTML;
var v;
var o;
var z;
for (k = 0; k < s.length; k++)
z = s[k];
v = z.value;
z.options.length = 0;
for (j = 0; j < lLength; j++)
o = new Option()
o.value = lItem[j].value;
o.text = lItem[j].text;
z.options[j] = o;
z.value = v;
if (z.selectedIndex == -1)
z.selectedIndex = 0;
loadList("f05", "P1_MGR");
</script>
(Change "f05" and "P1_MGR" as appropriate to your column and your new page item respectively)
Now, when you load the page, the select list contains a null entry plus the entry already on the database. The javascript kicks in automatically, loops through every entry in the "f05" column, copies the existing value, replaces the select list with the new page item version and sets its value to the copied value.
Your new page item could be in a DIV tag that has a style of "display:none" to hide it from view.

Report error: ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: NULL index table k

Hi everybody,
I have two Distinct Databases on two distinct servers. (Oracle Ent. Release 10.2.0.3.0 on AIX 5.3). After I install the latest patch last week, One of the APEX installation has some problems on Home>Application Builder Page. The error message is very random and
report error:
ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: NULL index table key value.
When i change the view (details to icons), everything goes to normal. This error message is reflected some of the pages (report region) of some of my applications randomly. When it appears in a report region, i deselect the order method of the region, the result is normal.
But the other APEX application on the other instance has no problem. It is a bug? or Should i re-install the APEX instance?
Thank you for your interest?

No, but we have a reproducible test case now so we're working on it. See ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: NULL index table key value
