Apr 26, 2013Should the following code work? I feel like I have done this before, but I'm getting a "must be a subquery" error now.
update TABLE1

values(select 'blah','blah' from DUAL)
where PK_FIELD=12345;
If this is invalid, is there another way to hardcode a series of values like this?

SQL & PL/SQL :: Matching Dates Using Dual?
Jul 7, 2010What I'm trying to do is make it so that it returns 'MATCH' when I pass a date that matches a date every two weeks starting Jan 01. Like Jan 01, Jan 15, Jan 29, Feb 12, etc. would return as MATCH Jan 02, Jan 03, etc. would return as NO_MATCH
The part in bold is what I'm having trouble figuring out.
select nvl(
(select 'MATCH'
from dual
where 'date' = '2 week intervals starting Jan 01'
), 'NO_MATCH') from dual

SQL & PL/SQL :: Bundle Commands Sent At One Time?
Jun 8, 2010I bought Selftestsoftware for 1z0-147 for 9i and 10g. Selftestsoftware is endorsed by Oracle, should be high quality. But its below sample question and answer seem to be wrong, or I could not understand it properly. It says "Network traffic is not decreased by bundling commands. Executing procedures and functions stored in an Oracle Developer application will process each PL/SQL statement and pass each SQL statement across the network to the database to be processed, dramatically increasing network roundtrips."
But PLSQL online reference manual says "However, with PL/SQL, an entire block of statements (bundling commands?) can be sent to Oracle at one time."
Selftestsoftware says pass each sql statement, but PLSQL online manual says send an entire block of statements like below diagram. Now which one is right, or I misunderstood something?
(I cant post the diagram from PLSQL online manual because of my quota)
Procedures and functions can be created and stored in the database or in an Oracle Developer application. How is performance improved when storing procedures and functions in the database?
Network roundtrips are reduced.The object code is created during execution.Network traffic is decreased by bundling commands.The source code is stored externally, and the object code is stored internally.
Explanation:Network roundtrips are reduced when storing procedures and functions in the database. The source and object code of database stored procedures and functions are stored like other objects, in physical files assigned to the appropriate tablespace. When executed from a client application, they require only one call. Because the object code is stored on the database side, there is no need to send it across the network.The object code is not created during execution. The object code is created when creating the procedure or function and is stored in the database.Network traffic is not decreased by bundling commands. Executing procedures and functions stored in an Oracle Developer application will process each PL/SQL statement and pass each SQL statement across the network to the database to be processed, dramatically increasing network roundtrips.The source code is not stored externally. The source code and object code are stored in the database.
Backup & Recovery :: Difference Between First Set Of Commands And The Second?

[ START REDO APPLY USING REAL-TIME APPLY ]
SQL> alter database recover managed standby database using current logfile disconnect;
Which of the two commands should i use in my production database.
SQL & PL/SQL :: Select From Dual Versus Equals Operator?
Mar 14, 2011I have a package function which is wrapped and I cannot see the code.The package function raises an user-defined exception when :
SELECT ABC.*
FROM ABC
WHERE ABC.A = PACK.FUNC(ABC.B,ABC.C)
But it does not raise any exception and the query works absolutely fine generating desired results when :
SELECT ABC.*
FROM ABC
WHERE ABC.A = (SELECT PACK.FUNC(ABC.B,ABC.C) FROM DUAL)
PL/SQL :: Query A Remote DUAL Causes ORA-01729 Or ORA-02019
Jul 6, 2012I have ORACLE XE 11g installed on two machines and have been trying my luck to get my local db to query/insert/update a table from the remote db.
I have created the public database link and querying the dba_db_links shows that the links is successfully created (see the bottom of the post). I have also created synonyms for my remote table and queries like select name from jforum_forums succeed, with jforum_forums being a public synonym referring to user.jforum_forums@corona.magic.ubc.ca.
However when I try to insert a row into the remote table, there is a query to the remote DUAL to fetch the last generated ID for a given table similar to the following: SELECT jforum_forums_seq.currval FROM DUAL. Statements of such fail and they either throw an ORA-02019: connection description for remote database not found or ORA-01729: database link name expected. I tried including the database link with the name of the table making it like SELECT jforum_forums_seq.currval FROM DUAL@corona.magic.ubc.ca but that didn't work either.
PS, I should mention that global_names are set to true in both databases and that my database link has the same name as the global_name of the remote database.

Windows :: Client Logging - See What Commands Are Being Sent By Process?
Nov 4, 2011I am trying to trouleshoot an issue with Oracle and want to see what commands are being sent by by process. By reading the documentation it appears there is client logging to do this but I can not get it to work. I added the following commands to my SQLNET.ORA file but no log file is created:
tnsping.trace_directory = C:appproduct11.2.0client_4
etwork race
tnsping.trace_level = admin
trace_level_client = user
trace_directory_client = C:log
log_directory_client = C:log
trace_unique_client = on
trace_timestamp_client = on
Ths TNSPING works just fine it logs the information I expect. The client logging, however, never creates a file .
SQL & PL/SQL :: Using Sequence.NEXTVAL From DUAL Versus In INSERT Statement?
Apr 8, 2013I am trying to understand the difference between using sequence.NEXTVAL from DUAL as against using it direclty in an INSERT statment.
--Sequence Creation
CREATE SEQUENCE SEQ_ID START WITH 1 MINVALUE 1 NOCYCLE CACHE 500 NOORDER;
--Table1 Creation
Create table TABLEA (COL1 number, COL2 varchar2(10),
constraint COL1_PL primary key (COL1));
--Table2 Creation
Create table TABLEB(COL3 number);
alter table TABLEB add constraint COL1_FK foreign key(COL3) references TABLEA(COL1);
-- Option1 - Using sequence.NEXTVAL from DUAL
DECLARE
v_seq_num NUMBER;
BEGIN
SELECT SEQ_ID.NEXTVAL INTO v_seq_num FROM DUAL;
INSERT INTO TABLEA (COL1, COL2) VALUES (v_seq_num, 'test');
INSERT INTO TABLEB (COL3) VALUES (v_seq_num);
END;
-- Option2 - Using sequence.NEXTVAL in INSERT USING RETURNING INTO clause
DECLARE
v_seq_num NUMBER;
BEGIN
INSERT INTO TABLEA (COL1, COL2) VALUES (SEQ_ID.NEXTVAL, 'test') RETURNING COL1 INTO v_seq_num;
INSERT INTO TABLEB (COL3) VALUES (v_seq_num);
END;

OPatch Commands Are Failing With Error Code 255 And Not Able To Find OUI Jars
Aug 21, 2013I'm trying to apply a patch using opatch but I'm getting this error:
"OPatch was not able to find OUI jars to load them runtime. Please provide valid oui location using 'oui_loc' option. OPatch failed with error code 255".
Oracle is 11.2.0.3 x64 on Windows Server 2008R2 x64. The PATH variable have
%ORACLE_HOME%OPatch, %ORACLE_HOME%OPatchjlib, %ORACLE_HOME%in in it.
The only OPatch command that is working and not throwing the error is the "opatch version" command.
OPatch Version: 11.2.0.3.5 OPatch succeeded.
No luck on finding issue resolution or documentation on MOS. I cannot find any documentation about the "oui_loc" option.
SQL Plus Command Line - Arrow Keys Not Giving Previous Commands Back
Mar 28, 2007I am using Oracle 10g Express Edition on Fedora core 5 32+ bit os. The problem is when I use the SQL Plus command line to make SQL statements I can not get the previously typed command back at the prompt when I use the up and down arrow keys on my keyboard. This is quite easy when I am using a shell, but here with this Oracle command line interface it is not working at all. Here is the example as what actually is happening whe I press the up or down arrow keys.
SQL> drop table mailorders;
Table dropped.

Backup & Recovery :: Running RMAN Commands In RUN File To Duplicate A Database

However, this command has turned off backup of the control file on the AUXILLARY database (i.e. production) as well as the TARGET database (test). Is this supposed to happen?
My run file is:

View 10 Replies View RelatedForms :: Dual Monitor Forms With Alerts / Messages
Apr 18, 2013We have forms 11gr2 on win xp 32bit , weblogic linux server 64bit. We are converting 6i to 11g. Our system has many forms that span on 2 monitors. 1280x768 monitors, so some forms are 2560x768.
When alerts/messages pop up on the screen , they are positioned in the middle of both screens (guessing Oracle by default calculates width =2560/2, height =768/2).
Possible options:
1- is there a way to tell oracle to open alerts/messages a X Y coordinates? Maybe a config file on the server? Already file a Sr with Oracle tech support.
2- tried creating a form to do our messages. but this is flawed since when you call the new form to display the message, then the focus on current form is lost. when the message form is closed (then trigger when_window_activate fires)...this would be hell to try and control all our messages (we may have 20-30 on each big form. We have a total of 118 forms. Lots of messages with Y/N/Cancel options.
3- Maybe create a place holder for messages on all forms (bottom of screen)...thats the best idea we have so far.
4- Is there a way to do something with a java beans? We already have some knowledge with beans since we use image beans and pdf beans.
