PL/SQL :: PLS-00455 / Cursor CUR_1 Cannot Be Used In Dynamic SQL OPEN Statement
May 10, 2013
create or replace package cognos_pk as /* Creates Package Header*/
TYPE project_type IS record( /* A record declaration is used to */
c1 NUMBER /* provide a definition of a record */
); /* that can be used by other variables*/
TYPE project_type1 IS REF CURSOR return project_type; /* Variable declaration */
procedure conosg_sp (result1 out project_type1); /* SP declaration */
end;
After opening a dynamic cursor, usually fetch hit record into some variables. However, if I do not want to "FETCH INTO " operate Just only skip this record.
DECLARE TYPE weak_cur_type IS REF CURSOR; weak_cur_1 weak_cur_type; weak_cur_2 weak_cur_type; vs_dsql VARCHAR2(2048); vd_create_time DATE; vn_count NUMBER(8); vn_total_amount NUMBER(13);
I would like to mention that I won't be able to give the data,specific information(like query or table names) about the issue as this concerns the privacy of some multinational company(where I work).
We have windows server and we are currently using Oracle 10g.
Issue-
We have a ProC, which has a SQL statement where it is trying to OPEN a cursor. The cursor query is huge and fetches data from 3 tables. 3 tables have 5k, 600k and 1.7 millions records respectively but the 'where' condition in cursor query makes the total count to 3k lines only.
Now the problem is , we have a schedule reboot of the server every Saturday night and the next day(Sunday night) when the program runs it gets stuck in the query --> OPEN <cursor> . We wait for 5 hours but this OPEN cursor query never executes or completes, that means our program gets stuck here.Eventually we have to kill the program.We have tried running it after killing as well but it again gets stuck.
Now the interesting part. On Monday business happens as usual but in the night when we again run this program it runs within minutes. The records in the tables are more or less same. Open cursor does not get stuck at all. It runs every night properly but every Sunday night it gets stuck. note that the program does not run on Saturday nights. So on Sunday night it runs for the first time after server reboot.
So there is something with Open cursor statement(with so much data) after server reboot. What exactly Open cursor does in memory or database.
I'm using dynamic sql (DBMS_SQL) to define columns of ref cursor. It works Ok but the problem is when i'm using PL/SQL CURSOR in the REF CURSOR. Then,I'm getting :
Error at line 3 ORA-00932: inconsistent datatypes: expected NUMBER got CURSER ORA-06512: at "SYS.DBMS_SQL", line 1830 ORA-06512: at "TW.PRINT_REF_CURSOR", line 28 ORA-06512: at line 9
Here is my code: set serveroutput on exec DBMS_OUTPUT.ENABLE(1000000); declare l_cursor sys_refcursor; begin [code]....
Oracle 11g For a procedure, if I use the hard-code procedure
sp_test( p_rc out sys_refcursor, p_1... p_2 ... ) is begin open p_rc for select * from TEST_TABLE... But now, I want to use the dynamically constructed sql, such as if condition1 then v_sql := ... elsif condition2 then v_sql := ... execute immedite v_sql
How can I return the the cursor p_rc in this case?
cursor cur is select S_EMP_EMAIL from EMP_SKILLS_INFO where SKILLCODE='MGR' and S_EMP_EMAIL = lower(:APP_USER) ;
cursor minskill is select skill_code,MINRQMT_AM from skills_code_info where skill_code in (select skillcode from emp_skills_info where S_EMP_EMAIL = lower(:APP_USER));
cursor leavecnt(v_skill IN VARCHAR2) is select count(*) from emp_leave_info where leave_date = :P24_LEAVE_DATE and emp_email IN (select S_EMP_EMAIL from EMP_SKILLS_INFO where SKILLCODE = v_skill); cursor empcnt(v_skills IN VARCHAR2) is
[code]...
Ideally this should send email to managers when a particular skill is running short when employee applies for leave. I am getting error that cursor is already open when I run this code. I am not sure which cursor or where it is picking open cursor command.
Is it possible to bind collection while opening a ref cursor. Find below the code that I am trying. My goal is to open cursor once using collection variable. Can it be done using DBMS_SQL ?
DECLARE TYPE typ_emp_rec_in IS RECORD ( deptno NUMBER, sal NUMBER [code]......
So, for lack of a better way to explain it, I need to do the following.
I need a EXECUTE IMMEDIATE to be able to use a CURSOR but its saying its not declared. Is their a way to pass the cursor so a Execute Immediate can use it...
I know thats just a small part... but it shows the end goal. I need to append a VARCHAR that has the COLUMN NAME I need from the CURSOR. CUR_DATA is the open cursor. V_DATA is just a VARCHAR with text in it.
In my environment found maximum open cursor exceeds error. So how can I found the open cursor list and how can I close that cursor without restarting. Any SQL commands to close the open cursor.
Is it possible to define a cursor using dynamic sql. Reason being is, I want to fetch data from 4 diffrent tables but dont want 4 diffrent cursors for this purpose.
I have a procedure that takes an in parameter . Cursor is declared in this procedure. Again is there a way to use dynamic sql so that this cursor declared in procedure uses all 4 table one at a time i.e cursor c1 is select * from table_name(I want this table name to be updated every time with new table name).
I am creating a db function to select * from table_name to be used by the application for retrieving lookup data. I found many examples for how to return cursor as a result of executing a dynamic sql but don't know the optimum way.
following is my current trial:
CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE types AS TYPE Cursortype IS REF CURSOR; END; /
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION F_GEN_SELECT_CURS (S_APP_USER IN VARCHAR2, I_MODULE_ID IN NUMBER, S_TABLE IN VARCHAR2) /*This function maps S_ACC_MAJOR_ACCOUNT_LIST CoolGen service [code].......
I have used a dynamic cursor for fetching value from different tables hence table name assigned dynamically during run time but i face an error ORA-06562 type of argument must match type of column and bind variable with error ORA-06212 But i frequently check the table structure and Declared variable there is no mismatch between them.
I'm currently using Oracle 11.2G and I was wondering if you can declare a dynamic cursor as a strong ref cursor type or can it only be declared as weak type ref cursor? Now, if it can only be declared as a weak type ref cursor, is there any way to avoid having to explicitly declare the type and field names being returned by the cursor? Meaning, is there anyway to avoid have to do something like this...
TYPE example_rec IS RECORD ( col1 VARCHAR2, col2 NUMBER, col3 NUMBER, etc... )
Instead, I was wondering if I could just set the fields and their types by setting them as a TABLE OF the ref cursor? The reason I'm wondering if this is possible is because I have a lot of fields being returned in my cursor, and I was hoping on avoiding having to type each one out and its type.
I am using dynamic Pl/SQL with ProC and having problems with cursor. I've to execute stored procedure dynamically and get the result of select list into the cursor. The EXECUTE command is working fine but the FETCH gets failed with error "ORA-01002: fetch out of sequence". I've read that cursor variable can not be used with dynamic SQL.
Stored Procedure: ------------------ ROCEDURE open_mod_cur ( curs IN OUT cur_type, module_id IN varchar2)
I have a plsql block construct where i want to use for loop dynamically , the query which for cursor for for loop will accept the table name from parameter and join them to return the result. the resultant data will iterate in loop and do the execution.
I am having a table with 4 columns as mentioned below
For a particular prod the value greater less than 5 should be rounded to 5 and value greater than 5 should be rounded to 10. And the rounded quantity should be adjusted with in a product starting with order by of rank with in a prod else leave it
I have taken all the records in to a cursor. Once after rounding the request of 1st rank and adjusting the values of next rank is done. Trying to round the value for 2nd rank as done for 1st rank. Its not taking the recently updated value(i,e adjusted value in rounding of 1st rank).
This is because of using a cursor having a value which is of old value. Is there any way to handle such scenario's where cursor records gets dynamically updated when a table record is updated.
1) i have a hr.departments table that was loaded in hr schema on 1st oct 2012 with 4 columns(department_id, department_name, manager_id, location_id)
2) now I have a new schema by my name 'rahul' and I have loaded departments table but now an additional column has come into picture,ie created_date, this table got loaded on 1st-Nov-2012
3) Now going forward my columns could be dropped from the departments table (it can be a case), for example might be my departments table in my schema 'rahul' one day could comprise of only 3 columns(department_id,department_name,manager_id)
4) Now in the next step, I have managed to extract common column names(in a single line where columns are delimited using a comma) from both the tables(hr.departments and rahul.departments) which are (department_id, department_name, manager_id, location_id) using all_tab_cols table and I have written a function for it which i will be pasting below.
5) now going forward, using the above column names line with column names delimited using comma, I have used a ref cursor and assigned a query to it using the line of columns that I have extracted from the above point
6) Now I want to create a record variable which refers to my ref cursor, something like we do when we create a record variable by reffering to an explicit cursor defination that we give in the declaration block.
PS:
1) I have been out of touch with plsql for a long time so I have lost a lot of mmeory regarding plsql.
2) basically I need to compare data in hr.departments table with rahul.departments table for only columns that are common to both the tables, rest new or discarded columns information will go in one of the log tables that I have created(this is done already)
Code : =================================================================================================== create or replace procedure p_compare_data(fp_old_table_name in varchar2, fp_new_table_name in varchar2) is
I need a PL/SQL stored procedure which will accept a datafile name as parameter and dynamically create and execute "alter tablespace" command to add this passed datafile dynamically.
I have a cursor in a procedure that selects columns from a table on a remote Oracle database using a database link. It all works fine when the table name and database link name is 'hard coded' into the procedure but what I would like to achieve is have the select statement lookup the table name and database link name from a column in another table. See example below
CURSOR c_total_bookings IS SELECT personnel_id, surname, forenames, birth_date,
[code]...
What I would like to do is replacecompany_bookings@remote.linkwith a variable that takes its value from another table.
i'm working in an Oracle 10g database on an IBM AIX server.
I have 3 tables (tables A, B and C).
Table A has columns -- product, rate and expiration date.
Table B has columns -- product, rate and deductible.
Table C has columns -- product, rider, gender, age and rate.
I also have a Master table which is used to store the data from Tables A, B and C via the insert statement.
I'm trying to create a dynamic SQL insert statement using a shell script to insert data from the columns in Tables A, B and C into my Master table. Master table does contains all columns from Tables A, B and C, although a column name could be spelled differently. For example, Master table contains a column named "deduct", while Table B has the same column spelled as "deductible".
I build the dynamic query using a for loop in my shell script (see below).
The problem is that i can't get the correct columns in the Master table in the dynamic SQL for the insert because depending on the table i'm selection from, the columns are different. So how do i get the correct columns in the SQL for the Master table?
Example Shell Script
--Archive_Rates.txt contains: Table A, Table B, Table C (but the next time my process runs, Archive_Rates might contain Table D, Table E and Table F -- each which have different column...but all columns are still in the Master table)
for tbl in `more Archive_Rates.txt` do echo 'BEGIN WORK; ' > rc1.sql echo ' ' >> rc1.sql echo 'insert into Master' >> rc1.sql echo '(prod, rate, rate_exp) ' >> rc1.sql
how to play around with NDS dynamic sql and I'm trying to add a column on the fly.Basically the procedure is trying to take a table name, column name, and eventually a data type and adds it to a table.
It works fine without the bind variable for the column name, accepting the table name on the fly.As soon as it tries to use the column name I get an ORA-00904 invalid identifier exception.
Here is the procedure I'm using
CODEcreate or replace procedure test(tbl_name varchar2, col_name varchar2) IS qry varchar2(500); begin
I have the following statement dynamic sql statement in a database package.
begin EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'SELECT REPLACE(SUBSTR('||V_WHERE_CLAUSE||',1,3, ''AND'', NULL) INTO V_WHERE_FILTER FROM DUAL'; EXCEPTION NULL; end;
When executed it gives following error.
ORA-20000: ORA-20000: ORA-00936: missing expression ### TRACE ### ORA-06512: at "NDSS.DUP_SRCH_PKG_MOD", line 931 ### END TRACE ### ### TRACE ### ORA-06512: at "NDSS.DUP_SRCH_PKG_MOD", line 935 ORA-06512: at "NDSS.DUP_SRCH_PKG_MOD", line 164 ### END TRACE ### ORA-06512: at "NDSS.DUP_SRCH_PKG_MOD", line 184 ORA-06512: at line 9
I have a DML Statement inside a procedure and i use a cursor variable to get the values checked as below . I have attached my procedure not completely but the declaration part and the DML statement part.
The issue is my procedure is not inserting the records at all. It selects the values and then inserts accoringly but its not selecting because of the cursor reference R_LOC.LOCATION_GID.
when i hard code the value in the DML statemnt for the R_LOC.LOCATION_GID, the rows are inserted as expected. So i guess the way the procedure executes the value is not correct.
Modifying my select part which uses cursor variable R_LOC.LOCATION_GID under Insert statement.
select d.servprov_gid, d.depot_gid, replace(d.appointment_time,'':'') appmt_time, d.'||v_day_to_use||' DayUsed from tesco_fresh_templates t, tesco_fresh_templates_d d, location_refnum r where t.set_id= d.set_id and d.depot_gid=r.location_gid AND D.SERVPROV_GID=''R_LOC.LOCATION_GID'' and r.location_refnum_qual_gid=''TESCO.IVS SCHEDULING'' and (r.location_refnum_value=''YES'' or r.location_refnum_value=''Y'') and t.default_set=''Y''
