What is wrong in this simple scritp? ORA-00936

Hi,
I created this simple script (for an Oracle 10g Express Application process) where I'm trying to copy one row from table EMPRESAS_ORGANISMOS to the table EMPRESAS_REVISADAS. Both tables have the same fields. ":P15_ID_EMP" is the text field that contains the ID of the row that I want to copy. I get the following errors:
ORA-06550: line 19, column 9: PL/SQL: ORA-00936: expression missing ORA-06550: line 3, column 1: PL/SQL: SQL Statement ignored

Hello Tormentaseca,
Have you tried running the INSERT statement without it being enclosed in the BEGIN/END PL/SQL block ?
It might be a problem in the SQL statement.
HTH,
John.

What's wrong with this simple code?

What's wrong with this simple code? Complier points out that
1. a '{' is expected at line6;
2. Statement expected at the line which PI is declared;
3. Type expected at "System.out.println("Demostrating PI");"
However, I can't figure out them. Please help. Thanks.
Here is the code:
import java.util.*;
public class DebugTwo3
// This class demonstrates some math methods
public static void main(String args[])
          public static final double PI = 3.14159;
          double radius = 2.00;
          double area;
          double roundArea;
          System.out.println("Demonstrating PI");
          area = PI * radius * radius;
          System.out.println("area is " + area);
          roundArea = Math.round(area);
          System.out.println("Rounded area is " + roundArea);

Change your code to this:
import java.util.*;
public class DebugTwo3
     public static final double PI = 3.14159;
     public static void main(String args[])
          double radius = 2.00;
          double area;
          double roundArea;
          System.out.println("Demonstrating PI");
          area = PI * radius * radius;
          System.out.println("area is " + area);
          roundArea = Math.round(area);
          System.out.println("Rounded area is " + roundArea);

What's wrong with this simple method

i'm having compile troubles with this simple method, and i think it's got to be something in my syntax.
public String setTime()
String timeString = new String("The time is " + getHours() + ":" + getMinutes() + ":" + getSeconds() + " " + getIsAM());
return timeString;
this simple method calls the get methods for hours, minutes, seconds, and isAM. the compiler tells me i need another ) right before getSeconds(), but i don't believe it. i know this is a simple one, but i could use the advice.
thanks.

Hi,
I was able to compile this method , it gave no error

What is wrong with this simple CFIF statement?

Hi, I've included a simple cfif statment to check to see if a
user is already in the database, for some reaons the <cfelse>
part of the statement does not work. that is, if the user is there
it returns the recordcount and ID etc. but if it is a new user (no
records found) it is just blank (without the nothing doing !!!) any
ideas?
Thanks
Yankee

Based strictly on the code you have shown, you do not need
the query="getuser" in your cfoutput tag.
Also, I would check to see if the value is greater than zero
rather than equal to one. What if the person has more than one
record in the database?
Try this...
<CFIF getuser.recordcount GT 0>
#GetUser.RecordCount# Records Found
<CFELSE>
Doing Nothing
</CFIF>

What's wrong with this simple java file

I am learning java input methods. When I tried to compile the below simple java file, there were two errors.
import java.io.*;

   public static void main(String[] args) {
    Console console = System.console();
    String user = console.readLine("user: ");
    System.out.println(user);
}The compiler errors:

What is wrong with this simple query

Hi,
I am writting a simple code just to get the maximum no values from a database table
The query is
ResultSet = stm.executeQuery("SELECT MAX(column_name) FROM Database_table ");
it seems to be a simple one but i am getting the message
column not found
Please answer soon

Well, it depends on how your resultset is retrieving the results. If you retrieve by column name, then that's your problem. You need to do something like this:
ResultSet = stm.executeQuery("SELECT MAX(column_name) AS myColumnName FROM Database_table ");
String myResult = ResultSet.getString(myColumnName);Using MAX, COUNT, etc, will return your result with a mangled or no actual column name to retrieve from. Optionally, you can solve your problem by:
ResultSet.getString(1);Michael Bishop

What is wrong in this simple J2EE application?

Hello everyone,
I am an undergraduate studying J2EE and I don't understand why the JavaBean that I create in the servlet is not correctly passed to the JSP page (I am trying to create a very simple Model 2 application that gets authentication data from an html form and return a jsp page that says if the login is ok or not, access to database is simulated by an if statement).
In particular, the problem that I experience is that all values that I try to get from the JavaBean object in the JSP page are null instead of having the correct value that I set in the domain logic classes.
The war archive is available at http://www.webalice.it/m.soderi/ApplicazioneLogin.war
Can you give me a suggestion?
Many thanks,
Mirco Soderi.

Hi,
In the login result page you are creating a new instamce of the bean
by calling
<jsp:useBean id="UserInformation" class="login.LoginBean" scope="request"/>
and using "UserInformation" in
<jsp:getProperty
you will always get null..
In your approch you have to use scriplets to print the informatiom required from the session attribute "User information"
dont declare a new bean using <jsp:useBean id="UserInformation"
if you want to set the values to the bean then use setproperty method

What is wrong with this simple for loop?

long number = 12345678;
        for(int i=1;i<=numberOfDigits;i++)
            int i = number/(i);
        System.out.println(i);
        Basically, I want to take to assign int 1 = , int 2 = , int 3 = up until the number of digits.
I still have to manipulate it, so the code makes no sesne, but how would I do that?
So, i want to assign ints up until 8 but the manipulation I have also involves i up until the number of digits.
Yhank you.

Fredddir_Java wrote:
I see that, but I just wanted to declare 8 ints (in this example, number of digits is 8) using a for loop, so I wanted to use the loop to assign these values one at a time. You know...but don't declare a variable with the same name as the loop variable. That just won't compile. Use an array as mentioned above.
How would you do that?If you are trying to find the digit at a certain point in your number, probably the easiest way is to translate the number to a Stirng and use String methods (if allowed) such as charAt(...). If not, then look at the mod operator "%" and at integer division.
Can anyone provide a basic loop for this task?Best not to ask for a code solution to homework here. We'll tolerate specific questions but not requests for code.

What is wrong with this simple getText

Alright, all im trying to do now is to have the user enter in a c d or f for their seat. If they do and everything else is correct, it should place an X in the array. However, even if i do a c d or f, it still goes to the else clause and never performs the intended if structure. I tried with integers and it worked fine, but our prof
insists we use letters. Please help

1) When posting code use the [url http://forum.java.sun.com/features.jsp#Formatting]Formatting Tags so the code is readable.
2) if(Seat == "a" || Seat == "c" || Seat == "d" || Seat == "f")
You don't use "==" when comparing equality of two Objects you use the equals(...) method.
if (seat.equals("a") ....
The "==" operator is only used when comparing primitive data types (int, char, long...)
3) Variable names should not start with an upper case character. Normally class names would start with an upper case character (look at all the classes in the API).

I can't figure out what's wrong with this code

First i want this program to allow me to enter a number with the EasyReader class and depending on the number entered it will show that specific line of this peom:
One two buckle your shoe
Three four shut the door
Five six pick up sticks
Seven eight lay them straight
Nine ten this is the end.
The error message i got was an illegal start of expression. I can't figure out why it is giving me this error because i have if (n = 1) || (n = 2) statements. My code is:
public class PoemSeventeen
public static void main(String[] args)
EasyReader console = new EasyReader();
System.out.println("Enter a number for the poem (0 to quit): ");
int n = console.readInt();
if (n = 1) || (n = 2)
System.out.println("One, two, buckle your shoe");
else if (n = 3) || (n = 4)
System.out.println("Three, four, shut the door");
else if (n = 5) || (n = 6)
System.out.println("Five, six, pick up sticks");
else if (n = 7) || (n = 8)
System.out.println("Seven, eight, lay them straight");
else if (n = 9) || (n = 10)
System.out.println("Nine, ten, this is the end");
else if (n = 0)
System.out.println("You may exit now");
else
System.out.println("Put in a number between 0 and 10");
I messed around with a few other thing because i had some weird errors before but now i have narrowed it down to just this 1 error.

What's wrong with this function

What's wrong with this Function(PL/SQL) in this formaula column definition in Reports 6i
function currdateFormula return Date is
curr_date date;
begin
select to_char(sysdate, 'DD-MM-YYYY') into curr_date from dual;
return(curr_date);
end;
I get the following error in compiling
REP-1401. 'currdateformula'.Fatal PL/SQL error occured. ORA-01843 not a valid month.
The SQL select to_char(sysdate, 'DD-MM-YYYY') from dual; worked well in SQL Plus prompt.
I got a clean compile when i use just sysdate in the function (see below).
function currdateFormula return Date is
curr_date date;
begin
select sysdate into curr_date from dual;
return(curr_date);
end;
Appreciate your help
Raja Lakshmi

hello,
what you are trying to do :
fetch the current date and return it as the result of the formula-column.
what you are actually doing :
fetch the current date, convert it to text, assign this text to a date-variable which causes an implicit type-conversion.
in your case you create a date-string with the format dd-mm-yyyy. the implicit conversion then tries to convert this string back to date using the NLS settings of your session. depending on your NLS_LANG and NLS_DATE_FORMAT this might work, if your session-date-format is dd-mm-yyyy which obviously it is NOT as you get the error.
what you should do :
select sysdate into curr_date from dual;
this fetches the sysdate and stores it in your date-variable. there is no type conversion needed what so ever.
regards,
the oracle reports team

Hi, everyone:
when I insert into table, i use the fellowing SQL:
INSERT INTO xhealthcall_script_data
(XHC_CALL_ENDED, XHC_SWITCH_PORT, XHC_SCRIPT_ID, XHC_FAX_SPECIFIED)
VALUES (SELECT TO_DATE(HH_END_DATE||' '||HH_END_TIME,'MM/DD/YY HH24:MI:SS'), HH_SWITCHPORT, HH_SCRIPT,'N'
FROM tmp_healthhit_load WHERE HH_SCRIPT !='BROCHURE' UNION
SELECT TO_DATE(HH_END_DATE||' '||HH_END_TIME,'MM/DD/YY HH24:MI:SS'), HH_SWITCHPORT, HH_SCRIPT,'N' FROM tmp_healthhit_load WHERE HH_SCRIPT !='BROCHURE');
I always got an error like;
VALUES (SELECT TO_DATE(HH_END_DATE||' '||HH_END_TIME,'MM/DD/YY HH24:MI:SS'), HH_SWITCHPORT,
ERROR at line 3:
ORA-00936: missing expression
but I can't find anything wrong, who can tell me why?
thank you so much in advance

For starters, an insert select does not have a values clause.

Even I see "missing VALUES" as the only error

...and why are you doing a UNION on the exact same two queries?
(SELECT TO_DATE(HH_END_DATE||' '||HH_END_TIME,'MM/DD/YY HH24:MI:SS') ,HH_SWITCHPORT ,HH_SCRIPT ,'N' FROM tmp_healthhit_load WHERE HH_SCRIPT !='BROCHURE' UNION SELECT TO_DATE(HH_END_DATE||' '||HH_END_TIME,'MM/DD/YY HH24:MI:SS') ,HH_SWITCHPORT ,HH_SCRIPT ,'N' FROM tmp_healthhit_load WHERE HH_SCRIPT !='BROCHURE');

Hi,
thank you for your answer, but the problem is, if I deleted "values" as you pointed out, and then execute it again, I got error like "ERROR at line 3:
ORA-03113: end-of-file on communication channel", and I was then disconnected with server, I have to relogin SQLplus, and do everything from beganing.
so what 's wrong caused disconnection, I can't find any triggers related. it is so wired?
I wonder if anyone can help me about this.
thank you very much
jerry

Hi,
acturlly what I do is debugging a previous developer's scipt for data loading, this script was called by Cron work, but it never can be successfully executed.
I think he use union for eliminating duplications of rows, I just guess.
thank you

Scratch the VALUES keyword then make sure that the select list matches the column list in number and type.
1 insert into marktest
2 (fld1, fld2, fld3, fld4, fld5)
3* select * from marktest
UT1 > /
16 rows created.

try this - just paste the code and give me the error- i mean past the entire error as it is if error occurs
INSERT INTO xhealthcall_script_data
(xhc_call_ended, xhc_switch_port, xhc_script_id,
xhc_fax_specified)
SELECT TO_DATE (hh_end_date || ' ' || hh_end_time, 'MM/DD/YY HH24:MI:SS'),
hh_switchport, hh_script, 'N'
FROM tmp_healthhit_load
WHERE hh_script != 'BROCHURE'
UNION
SELECT TO_DATE (hh_end_date || ' ' || hh_end_time, 'MM/DD/YY HH24:MI:SS'),
hh_switchport, hh_script, 'N'
FROM tmp_healthhit_load
WHERE hh_script != 'BROCHURE';

Hi, Jagan:
thank you very much for your answer.
but when I execute it, I still can get error like:
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-03113: end-of-file on communication channel
so wired, do you have any ideas?
thank you very much

And this one,
Aother question about SQL?
I thought I already told him to deal with
ORA-03113: end-of-file on communication channel
problem first.
There's nothing wrong (syntax wise) with the query. (of course when no "value" in the insert)

What is wrong in this simple scritp? ORA-00936
