Select * from {tablename} : invalid table name error

Hi,
I want to get data from a table and the table should be passed at runtime from selecting a table from the drop down list.In case of insertion of values I am getting no errors.But when I pass the table name as an argument I am getting invalid table name error.I think there is any syntax errors.I appreciate any help.
Regards,
Sivaram

you cannot use parameter for table name in PreparedStatement.
you can either generate the sql dynamically, such as String sql="select * from "+tablename, or you can check whether the database vendor has special api for this.

Invalid table name error ....

Hi,
I have written a function which takes table name dynamically and if column emp_id is null for more than 0 records then 1 is returned else 0 .
My problem is when i compile iam getting invalid table name error .
Below is my function :
create or replace
FUNCTION f_table ( tab_name in varchar2 ) return number is
l_count number;
begin
select count(*) into l_count from tab_name where emp_id is null;
if l_count >0 then
return 1;
else
return 0;
end if;
end;
Please help ...
Thanks in advance ..

Looks fine to me, you could use sign() for the last part:
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION f_table (tab_name IN VARCHAR2)
RETURN NUMBER
IS
l_count NUMBER;
v_sql VARCHAR2 (2000);
BEGIN
v_sql := 'SELECT COUNT (*) FROM ' || tab_name || ' WHERE emp_id IS NULL';
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE v_sql
INTO l_count;
RETURN sign(l_count);
END;And if you have large tables, you could consider not counting it all, and do something like this:
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION f_table (tab_name IN VARCHAR2)
RETURN NUMBER
IS
l_count NUMBER;
v_sql VARCHAR2 (2000);
BEGIN
v_sql := 'SELECT COUNT (*) FROM ' || tab_name || ' WHERE emp_id IS NULL AND rownum = 1';
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE v_sql
INTO l_count;
RETURN l_count;
END;Regards

Invalid table name error when updating object in collection using SQL

Hi,
I have pl/sql code where I am selecting a object from a collection using sql select query. I am processing this record and now I want to update the collection with the new object. ie. ensure that the object that was fetched be removed and this new one be added.
considering my_ot is the object type and my_tt is the table type.
DECLARE
my_col my_tt;
my_col1 my_tt
my_var my_ot;
my_var2 VARCHAR2(10);
BEGIN
// populating my_col1 with select query
//populating my_col with select query
FOR my_col1.FIRST .. my_col.LAST LOOP
//populating my_var2
BEGIN
SELECT my_ot(c.field1, c.field2 ,c.field3) INTO my_var FROM TABLE(my_col) c WHERE c.field3 = my_var2
//processing the field my_VAR
UPDATE TABLE(my_col) c SET c.field1 = my_var.field1 , c.field2 = my_var.field2 , WHERE c.field3 = my_var.field3;
EXCEPTION WHEN NO_DATA_FOUND
my_col.EXTEND;
my_col(my_col.LAST) := // new my_ot object
END;
END LOOP;
Here, when compiling the update query is not being compiled. I am getting a error 'invalid table name'. Is there any way to modify an object in the collection without knowing its index?
If not, is it possible to find the index of a object in the collection in select query?
Thanks in advance
Paddy

Hi,
Is there any way to find the index of a object in the collection? Then I will simply replace the object at that index, right!
Thanks

Invalid Table Name error in EXECUTE IMMEDIATE

Hi there.
I am trying to truncate few debug tables I created a used ago. Refer the code
declare
lv_sql varchar2(100) := 'truncate table :b1';
begin
for i in (select object_name
             from all_objects
            where object_type = 'TABLE'
              and object_name like 'DEBUG_%'
              and owner = user)
loop
   dbms_output.put_line('Table Name: '||i.object_name);
   execute immediate lv_sql using i.object_name;
end loop;
end;Seems to be correct (unless I messed something big). And, I get an error message:
ORA-00903: invalid table name
ORA-06512: at line 13Any idea? Thanks in advance.

you can't bind table or column names... try this instead:
declare lv_sql varchar2(100);
begin for i in (select object_name
              from all_objects
            where object_type = 'TABLE'
              and object_name like 'DEBUG_%'
              and owner = user) loop
                 dbms_output.put_line('Table Name: '||i.object_name);
   lv_sql := 'truncate table '||i.object_name;
   execute immediate lv_sql;
end loop;
end;Message was edited by:

What is the problem with this script. it is giving invalid table name error

declare
l_cnt number;
v_sql varchar2(1000);
table_name1 varchar2(1000);
begin
for i in ( select table_name from all_tables )
loop
table_name1 := i.table_name;
v_sql := 'select count(1) from :table' ;
execute immediate v_sql into l_cnt using table_name1;
dbms_output.put_line(l_cnt);
end loop;
end;

the problem is that you can't do that. it's illegal. use dynamic sql.

Invalid Table Name SQL ReporError From Unsubmitted List of Value Table Name

I have an application in which a user selects a table name from a list of values and a SQL report shows data from the table selected. On entry into this page the "invalid table name" error shows until you select a table name.
My list of values is a LOV with redirect.
Is there any way to remove this error or not show the report?
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Kyle

I resolved my issue by doing the following:
Create a process
Process Point - On Load - Before Header
Run Process - Once Per Session or When Reset
Process Source:
(item in list of value set equal to return value in list of value)
:P10_VERSION := 'ALLVERSIONS';

Invalid Table Name in query

Hello, I'm trying to create a report on a table name that is in an item. This is the simple query I'm using for the report:
Select * from :P9_MERGE_TABLE;
I get an Invalid Table Name error. Is there any way I can build the query to get around this problem.
thanks,
Jan

Certainly you can use a bind variable for a table name when building a dynamic sql query. But this is not exactly what I would call "binding the value of variable to a sql statement. You cannot bind a table name to a static sql query (hope this is the correct wording).
For example:
It is ok, to create the following static query:
SELECT * from emp where empno = :P1_EMPNO;But this will not work
SELECT * from :P1_TABLE_NAME;In this case, you have to do it the way discussed in this thread.

ORA-00903: Invalid table name - running Set based mapping

Hello,
Using OWB 10.2.04.36 and have created a mapping which reads data from Non-Oracle, ODBC source table, actually a worksheet in an Excel workbook which has been defined/set up using the Heterogeneous Service components.
I can view the data in the worksheet using the Design Center, Data Object Editor, Data Viewer tab so I know the data is accessible.
The mapping is performing a Loading Type: INSERT/UPDATE into a View which has an INSTEAD OF INSERT OR UPDATE OR DELETE ON view.
The mapping validates okay and is deployed successfully.
Yet when it is run in "Set based" Operating Mode from Control Center Manager the Execution Results show an "ORA-00903: Invalid table name" error is raised.
You cannot run the mapping in any Row based operating mode as Row based running fails with "ORA:22816: Unsupported feature with RETURNING clause" due to the generated code for the INSERT/UPDATE of the view using a RETURNING clause which is actioned on an INSTEAD OF trigger.
Looking at the generated package code I can strip out the SELECT statement from the MERGE statement for the alias "MERGE_SUBQUERY" and it runs and displays the expected result, however when the complete MERGE statement is taken and run I get the same ORA-00903 error that was reported in Control Center Manager.
Any ideas what the problem could be? I have another mapping that reads from the same source Excel workbook/worksheet and INSERT/UPDATE into a table without an INSTEAD OF trigger, this mapping deploys, runs successfully so the issue seems to be with the INSERT/UPDATE into the view. The views are what we require to be populated.
Thanks.

Hi,
But changing V_EMP_DEPT to EMP is not INSERTING/UPDATING to the view V_EMP_DEPT, what you propose is INSERTING/UPDATING into the table EMP. The code was only an example showing that the MERGE does not work when INSERTING/UPDATING into a view based on joining tables. For example say you wanted to INSERT/UPDATE the DNAME of V_EMP_DEPT then the MERGE statement generated by OWB PL/SQL mapping would use the code structure/template:-
MERGE INTO "V_EMP_DEPT" "V_EMP_DEPT"
   USING (SELECT 5369 "EMPNO",
                 'SMITH' "ENAME",
                 'CLERK' "JOB",
                 7902 "MGR",
                 To_Date('17/12/1980','DD/MM/YYYY') "HIREDATE",
                 800 "SAL",
                 'New Dept Name" "DNAME"
          FROM   Dual,
                 "DEPT" "DEPT"
          WHERE ("DEPT"."DEPTNO" = 20)) "MERGE_SUBQUERY"
   ON (    "V_EMP_DEPT"."EMPNO" = "MERGE_SUBQUERY"."EMPNO")
   WHEN NOT MATCHED THEN
      INSERT("V_EMP_DEPT"."EMPNO",
             "V_EMP_DEPT"."ENAME",
             "V_EMP_DEPT"."JOB",
             "V_EMP_DEPT"."MGR",
             "V_EMP_DEPT"."HIREDATE",
             "V_EMP_DEPT"."SAL",
             "V_EMP_DEPT"."DNAME")
      VALUES("MERGE_SUBQUERY"."EMPNO",
             "MERGE_SUBQUERY"."ENAME",
             "MERGE_SUBQUERY"."JOB",
             "MERGE_SUBQUERY"."MGR",
             "MERGE_SUBQUERY"."HIREDATE",
             "MERGE_SUBQUERY"."SAL",
             "MERGE_SUBQUERY"."DNAME")
   WHEN MATCHED THEN
      UPDATE
         SET "ENAME" = "MERGE_SUBQUERY"."ENAME",
             "JOB" = "MERGE_SUBQUERY"."JOB",
             "MGR" = "MERGE_SUBQUERY"."MGR",
             "HIREDATE" = "MERGE_SUBQUERY"."HIREDATE",
             "SAL" = "MERGE_SUBQUERY"."SAL",
             "DNAME" = "MERGE_SUBQUERY"."DNAME";
{code}
This was only an example my target view has a lot more columns being MERGE'd into the view and joined tables.
Cheers,
Phil

Dynamic Select query is failing with error "Invalid Table Name"

OPEN rc FOR 'SELECT count(*) from :s' USING tab_name;

Hi
I've modified the script to include only the statement that is erroring and it still errors when executed from the front end application.
Next I re-wrote the statement to use PL/SQL instead of the MERGE statement, to do the update, and the script completes succesfully, i.e.:
DECLARE
   CURSOR cu_lw IS
         SELECT t.billed_flag,
                t.last_bill_generated,
                t.last_bill_type,
                t.load_month,
                t.bill_transaction_id,
                t.load_working_rowid
           FROM table2 t;
BEGIN
   FOR rec_cu_lw IN cu_lw LOOP
      UPDATE table1 elw
         SET ELW.billed_flag           = rec_cu_lw.billed_flag,
          ELW.last_bill_generated      = rec_cu_lw.last_bill_generated,
          ELW.last_bill_type           = rec_cu_lw.last_bill_type,
          ELW.load_month               = rec_cu_lw.load_month,
          ELW.BILL_TRANSACTION_ID      = rec_cu_lw.bill_transaction_id
      WHERE elw.rowid                  = rec_cu_lw.load_working_rowid;
   END LOOP;
END;
/I am still unsure as to why the MERGE statement is failing when executed in the front end, but completes in the backend with no issues at all. Obviously I would prefer to use the MERGE statement instead of PL/SQL to do the update.
Thanks
Paul

Oracle Invalid Column Name Error in JSP

I was wondering if anyone could provide some help. I am new to JSP, Beans and Oracle and I am getting a java.sql.SQLException: ORA-00904: invalid column name error when I run the JSP below. The Java Bean's code it is referencing is also included and this bean is just storing information from the server from a previous login page.
Eventually I need to display more columns from the database using this JSP, but since I can even get this one working, I am at a loss!
PLEASE HELP!!!!
I have even tried to replace the beans reference in the sql with just a login and password I know exists in the database! Same error... Help!
I am running Tomcat and Oracle 9i!

Hi
Thanks for your reply, I should of looked at my code before I copied over. The field should of been "studentinfo.familyname" which I was calling, I have just been changing so much code in this to try and see what the problem is, I didnt fix this before I copied this over.... trust me, I have tried everything........ Hence when I correctly called the "concatination the login name and password to the query properly" as you pointed out, I got rid of the error, BUT now it returning NO DATA????? (the table is populated - I have checked this!!!!)
The table I am trying to get information from sits under a schema called system. It has the following columns;
STUDENTID NUMBER 8
FAMILYNAME VARHCAR 60
GIVENNAME VARCHAR 60
USERNAME VARCHAR 9
PASSWORD VHARCHAR 60
The database is called globaldb. My computer is called Midas2
Whats more, the query works in Oracle sql*plus!!! Returning the relevent data!!!
Actually here is the code for the JSP, with all the changes and none of the mistakes of my previous post...........,
Pleaes help!!!

How to assign tasks in Approval Workflow to a set of users selected from a Lookup table

Hi all,
I am new to Project Server and I am using Project Server 2013 On premises deployement. Please help me on how to achieve the below scenario:
I have a requirement where, the initial PDP will have 2 fields (Reviewers and Approvers), wherein the engineer himself will select who the reviewer and approver from the Lookup tables.
Now I have to start task process with these selected people for approval.
Say for example , engineer has selected Alice and Bob as 2 reviewers, then
In the workflow I have :
Start Task process with
Project Data: Reviewers (which is giving error as
[System.ArgumentException: AssignedTo at Microsoft.Activities.Hosting.Runtime.Subroutine.SubroutineChild.Execute(CodeActivityContext context) at System.Activities.CodeActivity.InternalExecute(ActivityInstance instance, ActivityExecutor executor, BookmarkManager
bookmarkManager) at System.Activities.Runtime.ActivityExecutor.ExecuteActivityWorkItem.ExecuteBody(ActivityExecutor executor, BookmarkManager bookmarkManager, Location resultLocation) ]
Then I tried logging the value of Project Data: Reviewers, It logged the value as Alice, Bob (which looks pretty good),
Then I tried assigning only 1 person as Reviewer, then also I get the same error.
So can anybody please tell me where I went wrong. Is it not possible to fetch the data from the values selected as Project Data from the Lookup tables ? If not then what is the workaround I can use to achieve this ?
Thanks,
Shanky

Hi Paul,
Yes I am using SP designer for Workflows. And yes, You were right, there was a mismatch in the names of AD account and the Lookup table, now with 1 person selected from the lookup table it is assigning the task properly. However with multiple selection,
it is failing.
As Robert mentioned, the fetched value is a text as "Alice, Bob", which makes 2 usernames as a single text. So when I try to assign a task to this group, which returns value as "Alice, Bob", workflow fails to find such AD user, as it
is an invalid value.
So is there any way I can seperate this out to form 2 different username ? I checked for string extraction function in th Workflow, but nothing helped me for this scenario.
Any input will be helpful.
Thanks,
Shanky

Dynamic table name - error

After run (or test) of procedure
create or replace procedure tmp_select_dymanic
( AInTable IN VARCHAR2,
ACount OUT NUMBER
) as
begin
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'BEGIN SELECT count(*) INTO :Count FROM :InTable END;'
USING ACount, AInTable;
end tmp_select_dymanic;
error message: invalid table name.
I know the table exists and contains data. I can make SELECT in SQL (not dynamic).
What a reason for error? May be privileges in database? But i make SELECT on my own table?
How can i set dynamic table name in other way?
My Oracle Version 10g.

What you are asking can be done by REF_CURSOR;
look this example and try your self the rest:
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE insert_to_table_dinamic (
   table1   IN   VARCHAR2,
   table2   IN   VARCHAR2
AS
   rc         sys_refcursor;
   v_sql      VARCHAR2 (2000);
   v_deptno   NUMBER;
BEGIN
   v_sql :=
         'SELECT DEPTNO FROM '
      || table1
      || ' WHERE ROWNUM = 1 AND DEPTNO IS NOT NULL';
   OPEN rc FOR v_sql;
   LOOP
      FETCH rc
       INTO v_deptno;
      EXIT WHEN rc%NOTFOUND;
      v_sql :=
            'UPDATE '
         || table2
         || ' SET DEPTNO = '
         || v_deptno
         || ' WHERE DEPTNO IS NULL';
      EXECUTE IMMEDIATE v_sql;
   END LOOP;
EXCEPTION
   WHEN OTHERS
   THEN
      DBMS_OUTPUT.put_line (SQLCODE || SQLERRM);
END insert_to_table_dinamic;when i give DEPT , EMP as my 2 parameters above code will set the deptno in EMP table where deptno is null;
--Just a test proc.
