SQL DATEDIFF problem

I want to update all records based on a datediff.
So I have this
UPDATE myTable
SET active = 0
WHERE datediff('dd',updated,'#inputDate#')
I'm getting an error saying invalid function call. I've tried
just about every variation I can think of and searched the internet
high and low for what the correct function call is.

which dbms are you using?
in ms access the syntax is : DateDiff("d", date1, date2) -
note it is
just "d", not "dd"
in ms sql it is: DATEDIFF(dd, date1, date2) OR DATEDIFF(d,
date1, date2)
- notice no " around dd or d
im mysql DATEDIFF always returns days, so the first argument
(dd) is not
used: DATEDIFF(date1, date2)
also, are you sure your #inputDate# is a DATE, not TEXT? i am
also not
sure if you need to surroun it with ''...

SQL injection problem

hi
How can we solve SQL injection problem in JDBC ?
this means if we have a form with text field and the user must enter a number say 4 , instead he entered "4 or true" this will concatenated with the SQL query and return all records because of "or true"....
is there any solutions ?
i tried PreparedStatment and it words but not alwayes
good luck

i clearfied this in my first post
if u didnt got what i mean u can google it
http://www.google.com
thanksYou didn't gently provide keywords, like I always do, so I cannot learn from you.
Well, with a "reproduceable example" I mean that you have to post a short but complete working code snippet which reproduces the problem. So that we can copy'n'paste it in our environment here and test/debug it ourself and then eventually confirm the SQL injection.

Not Converted : Free-hand SQL connection problem

While converting a Free Hand SQL report from Desktop Intelligence to Web Intelligence report in BI XI 3.1, I am faced with the problem
Not Converted : <REPNAME> - Free-hand SQL connection problem
It is be noted that there are some other Free Hand SQL Reports, that go converted and published without any error. The subject report has two Data Providers; one referring to the Universe and other from the Free Hand SQL tagged to a DB Connection

Ajay,
Some more points that can be of consideration to you to help understand my problems.
The conversion from DeskI to WebI is in the same version BI XI 3.1 and not to BI 4.0 in which Free Hand SQLs is not supported.
I have converted one other Free Hand SQL Report with an error "Partially Converted : <REPNAME2> - Conditional or permanent Hide Header not available in Web Intelligence", for which I had to edit the report in InfoView and un-tick the "Show When Empty" property of the table ( http://www.forumtopics.com/busobj/viewtopic.php?t=197157&view=next&sid=e6840aafa2d1267c66dae164d1dbf9db ). I think the solution mentioned in this link does not meet the purpose as the table is not displayed in the design time after the above untick.
Coming back to our issue, further probing into this aspect I stumbled upon this link meant for RCT for BI 4.0 version
https://csdwportal.dhhs.state.nc.us/downloads/Business%20Objects%20XI%20R4.0%20Docs/SAP%20BusinessObjects%20Report%20Con…
where in Section 3.4.9, there is a mention of the limitation in conversion as under
"Conversion of reports with free-hand SQL or stored procedures is only possible in Connected mode, since the Report Conversion Tool needs to use the secured connection to the database that is saved in the CMS."
I want to how the secured connection to the database in REPNAME2 is different from the subject report REPNAME1 as REPNAME2 got partially converted. The error reported for Subject report is "Free Hand SQL Connection Problem" and not conversion problem which can occur after the connection is established.
I did check the security properties of various FHSQL connections in the CMC and all of them are identical in nature.
Please advise

SQL Command problem in Application Express 3.2.0.00.27

To Oracle Application Express Development Team,
Yesterday I installed Oracle Application Express 3.2.0.00.27.
While doing my r&d, I came across one problem in SQL Command.
For example I wanted to run sql "select * from tab"
When I checked "Autocommit" checkbox it worked fine.
But when I unchecked the "Autocommit" checkbox it gave me following error:
ORA-01003: no statement parsed
Please check post

You're asking about a sql server problem on an Oracle forum?
Don't you think a sql server forum would be a more appropriate place for your question?

Form_check.php returns SQL Configuration Problem

Hello, I am hosting the MUSE outside of BC and the form cannot send out email. http://<website>/scripts/form_check.php shows that there is a SQL Configuration Problem. How to fix?

Repplying to myself Ok, after lots of frustration, tickets to web host admin, forum crawlign it looks like the problem was either on the PHP-versio or the name of the form. The forms were titled with Scandinavian characters and "/"-mark so after simplified the forename from muse the messages came trough! The thing is that also did change in control panel of my web host from PHP-version 4.3 to PHP 4.5 so not sure which one did the job, actually i did try with fresh-starndard forms out of Muse and also with the complexly-named ones and the later did not come trough with the PHP-version change. So i would expect that it was both - naming and php-version.
Hopefully this will help others since painful form-issue it was. Used woo-forms for whole but in terms of easy updatebility i decided to go with MUSE one. Tool still missing crucial features like radio buttons but looks like Muse been little hobby of Adobe so features coming in one by one, slowly but surely.
Not sure though if next time will be building site using DW since these small limitations - issues makes life so much harder. When the app works it works like charm but when issue arrises you better of building stuff from scratch.

Query Manager SQL DateDiff and Parameter Problem

Im having trouble with a date calculation in the Query Manager. Im wondering if anyone has run into something similar.
I am trying to write a query that returns records that are X days old, where X is a parameter input by the user.
Heres an example you can paste this into your system and duplicate the issue:
<b>SELECT T0.DocNum, T0.DocDueDate FROM ORDR T0 where datediff(dd, T0.DocDueDate, getdate()) <= [%0]</b>
Returns a date error code if you try to input an integer (e.g. the "Define Survey Variables" dialog is looking only for date values)
However
<b>SELECT T0.DocNum, T0.DocDueDate FROM ORDR T0 where datediff(dd, T0.DocDueDate, getdate()) <= 30</b>
Works just fine.
Any ideas?

Merci Daniel,
I too am using SBO B1 2005 A (PL 22)
I should have expanded on my original problem. I have tried using CAST and CONVERT in the following ways:
<b>SELECT T0.DocNum, T0.DocDueDate FROM ORDR T0 where datediff(dd, T0.DocDueDate, getdate()) <= CAST([%0] as Integer)
SELECT T0.DocNum, T0.DocDueDate FROM ORDR T0 where cast(datediff(dd, T0.DocDueDate, getdate())as Integer) <= [%0]
</b>
also
<b>SELECT T0.DocNum, T0.DocDueDate, cast(datediff(dd, T0.DocDueDate, getdate())as Integer) as Date FROM ORDR T0 where Date <= [%1]</b>
Nothing seems to work (although I could be getting the syntax wrong)

PL/SQL Performance problem

I am facing a performance problem with my current application (PL/SQL packaged procedure)
My application takes data from 4 temporary tables, does a lot of validation and
puts them into permanent tables.(updates if present else inserts)
One of the temporary tables is parent table and can have 0 or more rows in
the other tables.
I have analyzed all my tables and indexes and checked all my SQLs
They all seem to be using the indexes correctly.
There are 1.6 million records combined in all 4 tables.
I am using Oracle 8i.
How do I determine what is causing the problem and which part is taking time.
Please help.
The skeleton of the code which we have written looks like this
MAIN LOOP ( 255308 records)-- Parent temporary table
-----lots of validation-----
update permanent_table1
if sql%rowcount = 0 then
insert into permanent_table1
Loop2 (0-5 records)-- child temporary table1
-----lots of validation-----
update permanent_table2
if sql%rowcount = 0 then
insert into permanent_table2
end loop2
Loop3 (0-5 records)-- child temporary table2
-----lots of validation-----
update permanent_table3
if sql%rowcount = 0 then
insert into permanent_table3
end loop3
Loop4 (0-5 records)-- child temporary table3
-----lots of validation-----
update permanent_table4
if sql%rowcount = 0 then
insert into permanent_table4
end loop4
-- COMMIT after every 3000 records
END MAIN LOOP
Thanks

Thanks you very much in advance!

First thing I'd say is that you're code doesn't compile:
lv_title := '   // <----Secondly, does no-one use comments anymore? Isn't this drilled into people in programming classes at colleges? There's a whole bunch of code there but not much in the way of explanation as to what you are trying to achieve. It might make perfect sense to you now but try going back to it in a year and see if you can untangle it's purpose.
Thirdly, is there a specific reason why you've chosen to manually generate a report in PL/SQL, rather than delegating it to a report region? I understand that for particular formatting requirements (denormalised data, cells-within-cells etc), it is occasionally necessary to go to these lengths but I can't help but feeling a well-written query could simplify a lot of this, particularly the references multiple cursors.

     AND P.FECHA = F.datum_s;
How to write correct syntax in pl/sql. I apologize in advance for rookie questions. Any help would be appreciated.
Regards,
Robert

The exact implementation depends on the use case.
You can loop through the results
FOR r IN (
    SELECT DISTINCT pd.archivo
    FROM    par6.padrones_datos pd
           ,par6.padrones p
           ,par6.fechas f
    WHERE   pd.estado not in ('2000','8000')
    AND     pd.archivo = p.archivo
    AND     p.fecha = F.datum_s
LOOP
    dbms_output.put_line('Padron št. : ' || r.archivo);
END LOOP;
Or maybe you can process all results in one step, e.g. if you want to update a table based on the select.

PL/SQL Evaluation problem of where clause in case of NUMBER column type

I found the following problem in Oracle® Database 2 Day Developer's Guide 11g Release 1 (11.1) B28843-04:
The sole parameter of function eval_frequency is employee_id IN employees.employee_id%TYPE.
An ORA-01422 exception occurs when the execution reaches the following select command
SELECT e.hire_date
INTO hire_date
FROM employees e
WHERE employee_id= e.employee_id;
A possible cause of the error is that the type of employee_id is NUMBER while the employees.employee_id is NUMBER(6,0) . The result of the selection is the same as there were no WHERE clause at all.
Everything worked fine, when I declared a temporary variable of NUMBER(6,0) for storing the actual parameter of function and used this variable in the where clause, but I consider this "solution" as being no solution.
It is pointless to use %TYPE parameter of a function for flexibility if I must degrade this flexibility by a fixed declaration of a temporary variable of the same type as the column in question.
What is wrong?
The Developer'Guide I used, the Oracle Sql Developer I used or the PL/SQL version ?

Hi,
Welcome to the forum!

The variable employee_id is defined as having the exact same type as the eponymous column. Even if it didn't, I believe Oracle will always implicity convert between datatypes when possible, rounding if necessary. That may cause errors, but it isn't causing this error.
No, the error has nothing to do with the data type. It has to do with the ambiguity of employee_id: is it a column, or is it a variable?
The default is that it means the column name, so
WHERE   employee_id = e.employee_idis equivalent to saying
WHERE   e.employee_id = e.employee_idwhich isn't quite the same thing as not having a WHERE clause; rows with NULL employee_id would still be excluded, if there were any.
I think it's best not to use variable names that are the same as column names. You could call the variable v_employee_id, or, since it's an IN-argument, in_employee_id.
If you must use a variable that can be mistaken for a column, then qulaify it with the name of the procedure, like this:
WHERE   eval_frequency.employee_id = e.employee_id
Everything worked fine, when I declared a temporary variable of NUMBER(6,0) for storing the actual parameter of function That makes sens. You probably gave that variable a name that couldn't be mistaken for a column in the table.

SQL 2008 Problem Calling an SP on an Oracle 10G Linked Server

Hi everyone
I've read through a number of posts on many sites about this issue but haven't found anything that has helped me so far. The machine I'm using is running Microsoft SQL Server 2008 64bit and the linked server I've created to Oracle 10G is using OraOLEDB.Oracle. If I test the connection in SQL Management Studio it succeeds and for any queries I have using OpenQuery to select from the Oracle DB I have no problem getting results.
The Oracle 32bit client and 64bit client versions are installed on the machine.
My problem is that I need to exec an Oracle SP which in turn inserts into various Oracle tables. I previously had this all working fine on 32bit SQL Server 2000 installation connected to Oracle 10G. Using the same code in SQL Server 2008 I get the following error:
Msg 7357, Level 16, State 2, Line 1
Cannot process the object "{CALL INTF.INTF_TW_PO_REQ_INTERFACE.MAIN(NULL, 15.000000, 0.000000, 'BLPO0099998', 'BLPO0099998', '', '', 39804, 21883, 'BLPO0099998', 249, 1, 950, 'Main', 190506, 37336, '1', TO_DATE( '20090706','YYYYMMDD' ), TO_DATE( '20090706','YYYYMMDD' ), 'INCOMPLETE',37336, {RESULTSET 1, P_Success})}". The OLE DB provider "OraOLEDB.Oracle" for linked server "ORACLE" indicates that either the object has no columns or the current user does not have permissions on that object
The call is made by the following piece of code in SQL:
SET @execCmd = N'SELECT
P_Success
FROM
OPENQUERY( ORACLE, '''+ @oracleCmd + ''')';
EXECUTE (@execCmd);
Where @oracleCmd = {CALL INTF.INTF_TW_PO_REQ_INTERFACE.MAIN(NULL, 15.000000, 0.000000, ''BLPO0099998'', ''BLPO0099998'', '''', '''', 39804, 21883, ''BLPO0099998'', 249, 1, 950, ''Main'', 190506, 37336, ''1'', TO_DATE( ''20090706'',''YYYYMMDD'' ), TO_DATE( ''20090706'',''YYYYMMDD'' ), ''INCOMPLETE'',37336, {RESULTSET 1, P_Success})}
I also tried using the below snippet from another post I found and got no joy either.
declare @result varchar(255)
exec ('BEGIN
?:= your_SP_Name(''arg1'', ''arg2'', etc);
END;
',@result OUTPUT) at your_LinkedServerName;
select @result;
OLE DB provider "OraOLEDB.Oracle" for linked server "ORACLE" returned message "ORA-06550: line 3, column 7:
PLS-00222: no function with name 'INTF_TW_PO_REQ_INTERFACE' exists in this scope
ORA-06550: line 3, column 1:
PL/SQL: Statement ignored".
I can't figure out why it doesn't work in SQL 2008 when it worked fine in SQL 2000 - PLEASE HELP!
Thank you
Alida Hope

Why development on 10g and production on 8i? Either both should be 8i or both should be 10g.
If you will keep production on 8i and development on 10g then you cannot stop such errors as there are features that are enabled by default in 10g and both the versions have very big differences.
Just go ahead and install 8i.

SQL query problem - select max (case... aggregate function)

Hi,
I have a problem with below sql query, it gives me problem/error message 'ORA-00937: not a single-group group function', why?
select sag.afdeling, sag.sagsnr, to_char(sag.start_dato, 'yyyy-mm-dd'), sag.stat, BOGF_TRANS.TRANSTYPE,
max (case when BOGF_TRANS.TRANSTYPE = 'K' then sum(bogf_trans.belobdkk) end) + -- as "TRANSTYPE K",
max (case when BOGF_TRANS.TRANSTYPE = 'D' then sum(bogf_trans.belobdkk) end) as "TRANSTYPE K & D",
max (case when BOGF_TRANS.TRANSTYPE = 'S' then sum(bogf_trans.belobdkk) end) as "SUM TRANSTYPE S"
from sag
join bogf_trans on sag.selskab = bogf_trans.selskab and sag.sagsnr = bogf_trans.sagsnr and sag.afdeling = bogf_trans.afdeling
where SAG.SELSKAB=37 and SAG.AFDELING = 'SUS' AND SAG.SAGSNR = 10876
group by sag.afdeling, sag.sagsnr, sag.start_dato, sag.stat, BOGF_TRANS.TRANSTYPE
If I exclude (columns) as below it give me correct summations (max (case... sum(...)) but then I miss some important info that I need
select
max (case when BOGF_TRANS.TRANSTYPE = 'K' then sum(bogf_trans.belobdkk) end) + -- as "TRANSTYPE K",
max (case when BOGF_TRANS.TRANSTYPE = 'D' then sum(bogf_trans.belobdkk) end) as "TRANSTYPE K & D",
max (case when BOGF_TRANS.TRANSTYPE = 'S' then sum(bogf_trans.belobdkk) end) as "SUM TRANSTYPE S"
from sag
join bogf_trans on sag.selskab = bogf_trans.selskab and sag.sagsnr = bogf_trans.sagsnr and sag.afdeling = bogf_trans.afdeling
where SAG.SELSKAB=37 and SAG.AFDELING = 'SUS' AND SAG.SAGSNR = 10876
group by sag.afdeling, sag.sagsnr, sag.start_dato, sag.stat, BOGF_TRANS.TRANSTYPE
Any ideas?

Moved to more sutable forum, sorry.
