Spatial Index Advisor : Error

I get a couple of error messages in Spatial Index Advisor when trying to draw indexed geometries. The errors are:
"Server object could not be created: server object could not be initialized: ORA-29902: error in executing ODCIIndexStart() routine", and then;
"Initialization error: server object could not be initialized: ORA-29902: error in executing ODCIIndexStart() routine"
Previously I uploaded a MapInfo table containing polygons using Easyloader, but without generating any indexes. Using DBA Studio, I created a spatial index with the assistance of the Tiling Wizard. I can only assume that the index itself was created OK, as I received no error messages from that process.
Am I missing somthing in my installation of Oracle? What is ODCI? I am using the 8.1.6 version downloaded from technet.
Thanks in advance,
Jon

Thanks Dan,
I'll try your suggestion as soon as I can. First I just need to clarify a few other issues as well.
1. Does this mean that ODCI Indexing for Spatial is not necessarily incorrectly installed in my case? Put another way, is this just a problem with the Spatial Advisor, or does it go beyond that to the actual implementation of ODCI indexing in Spatial?
2. In one of my messages I alluded to the fact that I'd confirmed the problem using the Java API (meaning the 'SDOAPI'). In short, I formed an SQL statement requesting geometries for a specified window (SDO_FILTER), but got pretty much the same error relating to the 'ODCIIndexStart()' function. I'm not at home at the moment, so can't give you the details at this time. I think SQLPLus also reported the same error, leading me to conclude that it's a problem with the cartridge installation itself. Does the workaround that you suggested fix the problem for just the Spatial Advisor, or the SDO_FILTER operator in general? In essence, are you saying that ODCIIndexStart() (in Spatial) does not understand coordinate systems, or just the Spatial Advisor?
3. Is there a patch to fix this in the interim?
Sorry to be such a pain. It's just that I've been banging my head against the proverbial brick wall with this for a while. I was starting to think it was me not understanding something basic.
Regards,

  • ODCIIndexStart error in Spatial Index Advisor

    Folks,
    I am getting the following error when attempting to zoom in on a layer in the spatial index advisor:
    Initialization error: server object could not be initialized
    ORA-29902: error in executing ODCIIndexStart() routine
    ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error
    ORA-06512: at "MDSYS.SDO_CS", line 236
    I have seen similar sorts of complaints from a number of people in the forums but no clear explanation of what is causing the problem or how to resolve it.
    I did a bunch of experiments and I have come to the conclusion that the problem only occurs with layers that have 3 dimensions and are geodetic. If I force a projected SRID to be used for the layer (and all component geometries) then the problem goes away. Or if I force the layer to be only 2D then it works fine.
    I have also tried using "geodetic=false" and "sdo_indx_dims=2" when creating the spatial index, and these did not seem to help at all.
    The problem is occuring for me in the spatial index advisor, but my understanding from my client is that it also occurs in other contexts, so I don't think this is specifically a spatial index advisor problem.
    I would add that I believe I am running 9.2.0.1.0 on Windows XP.
    I found I was able to reproduce the problem creating an indexing a layer as follows then opening it in the spatial index advisor and trying to zoom in:
    -- Cleanup
    drop index idx_test1 force;
    drop table test1;
    delete from user_sdo_geom_metadata where table_name = 'TEST1';
    --Here's my table:
    CREATE TABLE test1
    PNT_ID NUMBER(17) NOT NULL,
    ORA_GEOMETRY MDSYS.SDO_GEOMETRY
    --Here's my insert:
    INSERT INTO test1
    VALUES ( 1, MDSYS.SDO_GEOMETRY(
    3001, 8192, MDSYS.SDO_POINT_TYPE(60.8996766, -32.606364, 0), NULL, NULL
    COMMIT;
    -- of course I did the insert into the metadata table...
    INSERT INTO USER_SDO_GEOM_METADATA
    VALUES (
    'TEST1',
    'ora_geometry',
    MDSYS.SDO_DIM_ARRAY(
    MDSYS.SDO_DIM_ELEMENT('X', 50, 70, 0.0005),
    MDSYS.SDO_DIM_ELEMENT('Y', -40, -30, 0.0005),
    MDSYS.SDO_DIM_ELEMENT('Z', -10, 10, 0.0005)),
    8192
    COMMIT;
    CREATE INDEX idx_test1
    ON test1(ora_geometry)
    INDEXTYPE IS MDSYS.SPATIAL_INDEX
    I would appreciate any feedback on why this doesn't work and if there is a more elegant way of resolving the problem beside discarding my elevation values.

    This is reproducable in 9.2.0.4. I couldn't find a bug entered for it.
    I entered bug 3149274.
    There is a similar bug (2409529) that breaks projected layers.

  • Spatial Index Advisor

    Hi all,
    Do you know why I got the following error when I try to use add a layer?
    Server object could not be created: server object could not be initialized: Non supported character set:oracle-character-set-560
    Thanks

    Well, I installed Oracle 8i and I used English as the default character set. The spatial index advisor is working now, but for sure I can display the data stored in the attributes because Arabic is the language we are using in our database with a character set (AR8MSWIN1256).
    I do not know if there is another way we can run Spatial Index Advisor.

    Have tried to use subject and got an error when adding the table to analyze.
    Error: Server object could not be created: server object could not be initialized: Non supported character set: oracle-character-set-171.
    What's issue of this error? Does anyone know?

    Hi Igor,
    Not sure what the problem is.
    This could be an NLS issue.
    You might want to log a bug against
    the Spatial Index Advisor with a small dump
    file of your layer.
    Also, can you make sure your entries
    in USER_SDO_GEOM_METADATA are correct?
    Thanks.

  • Question about "Spatial Index Advisor"

    I'm now using "Oracle8i Enterprise Edition 8.1.6" and "Oracle8i Enterprise Manager 2.1" for Windows NT/2000. I tried to use the extended administration tool of the Manager "Spatial Index Advisor" to access my spatial data. I can see the layers in the "Add layer" Dialog. But when I want to add a layer, it popup a failed message box said "Server object could not be created:Server object could not be initialized:Not be supported charaterset:oracle-characterset-852". Why? And how can I solve the problem?

    Hi Dinghy,
    The Oracle 8.1.6 sdo advisor is only implemented for the US7ASCII character set.
    The Oracle 8.1.7 release of the advisor does have NLS support.
    Hope this helps. Thanks.

    Hi Jeff,
    The data at rowid AAAFXYAADAAABxyAAD has a problem.
    Can see what the issue is by doing:
    select sdo_geom.validate_geometry(geom_col_name,diminfo)
    from your_table_name a, user_sdo_geom_metadata b
    where b.table_name='YOUR_TABLE_NAME'

    If you are using Oracle9iR2 then this would be even better:
    select sdo_geom.validate_geometry_with_context(geom_col_name,diminfo)
    from your_table_name a, user_sdo_geom_metadata b
    where b.table_name='YOUR_TABLE_NAME'

  • Error creating spatial indexes

    I'm using oracle 10g2.
    I retrieve the following error message during spatial index creation:
    ERROR at line 1:

    I've already installed data and created spatial indexes on other machine correctly with the same data with less memory use, and I can't find any difference.
    Could anybody help me?

    Andre,
    I didn't think the , and ; in the sdo_geom_metadata would be causing the problem because he indicated that he could build indexes on other data - I assume he uses the same diminfo values for these as well. But, one can never be too sure!
    But certainly, follow what the error messages indicate.
    The Oracle Error message manual says:
    "ORA-13232: failed to allocate memory during R-tree creation
    Cause: This feature assumes a minimum of 64K memory for bulk creation.
    Action: Create the index for a small subset of the data. Then, use transactional insert operations for the rest of the data."
    The spatial manual says:
    "Before you create a spatial index, be sure that the rollback segment size and the SORT_AREA_SIZE parameter value are adequate, as described in Section 4.1.1."
    One way to change the sort area size is to alter your existing session before
    executing the create index statement. So, from 4.1.1. this can be done via:
    ALTER SESSION SET SORT_AREA_SIZE = 20000000;
    Also, do what Andre suggests. On my laptop with 1G of memory as a matter of course I change the SGA from the default to being much larger.

  • Error when creating spatial index in 10g

    Hello.
    I have a problen when I try to create a spatial index. The strange thing is that the same commands always works fine in some machines, but if always fails in others. I tryed in diferent versiones of Oracle, but I have the error in al of them. The versions I have tryed are:
    - 10.2.0.1
    - 10.2.0.4
    The operating systems are:
    Windows XP professional 32 bits
    Windows 2003 Server 32 bits
    These are the steps i make:
    1) Create a Table with a SDO_GEOMETRY column (GEOMETRY)
    2) Load data with SQLLDR (I hve tryed different SRID's, and all fail)
    So far everything is ok
    3) Create the INDEX
    When I execute the CREATE INDEX command CREATE INDEX MADRID_SX ON MADRID (GEOMETRY) INDEXTYPE IS MDSYS.SPATIAL_INDEX;
    I obtain the error:

    And if I execute the next command, I too have another error:

    Any ideas? Could it be related with something inside the machines, user privileges, etc.?
    Thanks in advance.

    I have found that the problem is to use a SRID of AUTH_NAME column in MDSYS.CS_SRS table without the value "Oracle." in it.
    If I use an Oracle’s SRID, everything works fine. If I use an EPSG’s SRID, fails.
    For example, this command uses an Oracle SRID (8192) and one from the EPSG (25830), and fails:
    SELECT MDSYS.sdo_cs.transform(sdo_geometry(2001,8192,sdo_point_type(13.6,52.4,null),null,null),25830) from dual;

    ORA-06512: en "MDSYS.SDO_CS", linea 116
    ORA-06512: en "MDSYS.SDO_CS", linea 2690
    However, if I use two Oracle SRID (8192 and 83030), it works.
    SELECT MDSYS.sdo_cs.transform(sdo_geometry(2001,8192,sdo_point_type(13.6,52.4,null),null,null),83030) from dual;
    SDO_GEOMETRY(2001, 83030, SDO_POINT_TYPE(1625183.71, 5936269.06, NULL), NULL, NULL
    Therefore, the problem seems to be to use a non Oracle SRID.

  • Spatial index error whilst creating an index for a GeoRaster column

    Dear all
    Several months ago I inserted 12 Raster map PNG files into Oracle as GeoRaster data. I then viewed these in MapBuilder to check they are were loaded and as they appeared, it seemed to suggest they were.
    Today however I realised I had not created an entry for USER_SDO_GEOM_METADATA or a spatial index. Therefore I attempted to do this using the code below. When I first made an entry into USER_SDO_GEOM_METADATA I did not add .spatialextent after the column name, web_raster_map. However whilst reading the MapViewer manual I decided it was required so create a new entry. However the error message, posted at the end, was the same in each case. If any one has any ideas on what I may have done wrong, I would be grateful.
    Is the entries eastings-x and northings-y wrong? Should that be X and Y and if so would that resolve the errors? I was using a script I had created previously for vector data and adapting it.
    INSERT INTO USER_SDO_GEOM_METADATA
    (TABLE_NAME,
    COLUMN_NAME,
    DIMINFO,
    SRID)
    VALUES (
    'WEB_RASTER_MAP_FILE',
    'web_raster_map.spatialextent',
    SDO_DIM_ARRAY( -- full grid size goes here
    SDO_DIM_ELEMENT('eastings-x', -3273.58473839662, -8471.66, 0.005),
    SDO_DIM_ELEMENT('northings-y', -9694.76, -1632.88473839662, 0.005)),

    To add an additional comment.

    Dear sravada
    Thank you for your reply, I very grateful. I didn't spot that mistake because I was coming from the point of only needing to add the column name. When your starting out most mistakes are simple ones.
    Kind regards

  • ORA-29855 - Error creating Spatial Index using a Stored Procedure

    Hi
    I am using Oracle 10gR2 database and I have written a stored procedure to create spatial index. But when i execute this function i get the following error message.

    The tables that i am passing are registered in metadata and I am able to create indexes directly in sql plus. But when i try to create using this stored procedure, it fails.
    it should be possible to create indexes using a generic function. Has any faced a similar problem?
    regards

  • Error creating Spatial Index - ORA-29855

    I have a DB in 11g that I used SQL Developer to copy to my local machine, 10g installation. I copied the same kind of databases around a lot but this is the first time I'm getting this error, when creating the spatial index.
    For this table I only copy the DDL and then run a .sql file with lot's of inserts and now I'm trying to create the spatial index.
    So I tried:
    CREATE INDEX location_spatial_idx ON location(locationcoordinates) INDEXTYPE IS MDSYS.SPATIAL_INDEX;
    And got:
    ORA-29855: error occurred in the execution of ODCIINDEXCREATE routine
    ORA-13203: failed to read USER_SDO_GEOM_METADATA view
    ORA-13203: failed to read USER_SDO_GEOM_METADATA view
    ORA-06512: at "MDSYS.SDO_INDEX_METHOD_10I", line 10
    My DB is:
    Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.2.0.1.0 - Prod
    I tried running the create index as SYSDBA with no luck.
    select * from mdsys.sdo_index_metadata_table -> empty for this user owner
    select sdo_index_name from user_sdo_index_metadata -> empty
    SELECT * FROM SDO_INDEX_METADATA -> empty
    So... any clue on what I'm doing wrong?

    So... any clue on what I'm doing wrong?I would think that Oracle is quite clearly telling you what is wrong here: Your table is not in the metadata.
    If you simply create the DDL for the table and create the insert statements from SQL Developer, it won't create the insert into user_sdo_geom_metadata....
    And in order to create a spatial index, the table MUST be in the user_sdo_geom_metadata, whether you try to create the index as SYSDBA or as the owner of the table.
