SQL & PL/SQL :: Bug In Timestamp Data Type In Oracle DML / OLAP Or User Error
Mar 20, 2012
I'm trying to deduct x hours from a timestamp value. Everything works fine if x yields a result that is on the same day as the value I'm deducting it from. However, if it yields the day before then it gives the wrong answer using DML (although in SQL it works fine). Let me explain with an example:
Let's say current_timestamp is 20-MAR-12 09.40.00.000000 +00:00
If I deduct 8 hours from this I get the correct answer: 20-mar-12 01:40:00 (syntax: show current_timestamp-8/24)
If however, I deduct 10 hours from it (which takes it to the day before) I get garbage: 20-mar-12 00:20:00 (syntax: show current_timestamp-10/24). It should say: 19-mar-12 23:40:00
In SQL I get the correct result every time. So, my question is, is this a bug or intended behaviour? If the latter then what is it doing and how can I get it to give the answer I'm looking for?
What I'm trying to do is convert a timestamp from one timezone to another using DML. The NEW_TIME function will only give me what I want if I know whether the "to" timezone is currently in daylight saving or not. eg. Must I use CST or CDT?
The full syntax I'm using to try and achieve my aim is below.
show to_char( to_date( '2012-03-19--15-37-23' 'YYYY-MM-DD--HH24-MI-SS' )-(convert( extchars( tz_offset( 'AMERICA/CHICAGO' ) 3, 1 ) int )/24) 'YYYY-MM-DD--HH24-MI-SS' )
where 2012-03-19--15-37-23 is a user-supplied argument.

I am trying to create & use a new data type but keep getting a ora-0902 invalid data type error running on 10g express. The create type and select statements execute fine and select confirms the ssn_t is a type. The create table statement fails with the invalid data type error.
Here is an example.
CREATE TYPE ssn_t AS OBJECT ssn_type CHAR(11));
SELECT object_name, object_type
FROM user_objects WHERE object_type = 'TYPE';
CREATE TABLE Z (A CHAR(4), B SSN_T);

I have this requirement, I have a following Record type within a package, instead of selecting datas into this i need to assign variables to this record type
TYPE xx_delivery_detail_rectype IS RECORD ( p_delivery_id NUMBER, p_ultimate_dropoff_location_id NUMBER, p_creation_date DATE, p_last_update_date DATE, p_container_name VARCHAR2 (30), p_inventory_item_id NUMBER, p_shipped_quantity NUMBER, p_shipment_line_id NUMBER ); TYPE xx_delivery_table_rectype IS TABLE OF xx_delivery_detail_rectype INDEX BY BINARY_INTEGER;
Say i have variables to assign to all the values within the record type, How do i do it within the package

I upgraded a database on Win64 from 11.2.0.1 to 11.2.0.3 Patch 10.
The 'Pre-Upgrade Information Tool' said 'Oracle OLAP API [upgrade] INVALID' bevore the upgrade. The upgrade procedure didn't then do the upgrade of OLAP. Now several objects of OLAPSYS and the object CTXSYS.DRIOPT are invalid and can not be validated by compilation. What should i do now?

I am getting this error on a varchar2(30) data column that I am trying to convert to number. I am creating a new view against some tables that house converted legacy data.The table is defined with a line_type column and a line_value columns. The line_type will contain either 'AMT', 'DATE' or 'STR'. The line_value column is defined as varchar2(30). Based on the line_type, that will determine how I format the line_value data. I have created the select for my view to translate this using a case statement:
CASE line_type
when 'AMT' then round(to_number(line_7_value),2) when 'DATE' then to_date(line_7_value, 'YYYY-MM-DD')
ELSE
line_7_value
END
I can't figure out what I am doing incorrectly. It does not like the "When 'AMT'" line, gives me an error of 'inconsistent data type, expected NUMBER, got CHAR". The data in line_7_value is defined as varchar2(30), I attempting to use To_number to convert it to a number, then round the number. I don't know why it says it is 'expecting number'.

I have a simple tabular form based on a four element table: the primary key (seq #), title, Updated_by, Updated_timestamp.I would like to populate the updated_by and Updated_timestamp fields when a user either updates or adds to the table.On other forms, I use a calculation to update the page_ item in the page_processing section of APEX. However, in the tabular form, I am not sure where I might update these two fields.

I have a data synch procedure where I am extracting data from an Oracle table and inserting it into a SQL Server table. The Oracle column is VARCHAR2 and the receiving SQL Server column is Binary. I am receiving a conversion error. I have tried HEXTORAW in the Oracle procedure but it does not work. What data type can I use.

I have 3 user defined collection types. I am trying to access the type3's attribute in type1 body (like backward accessing).
Ex. My Collection Types Structure (something like master detail structure)
create type type1 as object
(
attr1 varchar2(10),
attr2 varchar2(10),
member procedure function1
[code]...
so, in the type1 body i have to get or assign the value either to type2's attribute or type3's attribute. I have search all the in internet but i haven't find anything such. how to find the reverse method of accessing the super type's attribute(s) in sub type's body.

I have created the below types and oracle objects.
create or replace type T_EMA_NP_SETDEL_RESP_REC as object
(
respCode number,
respDesc varchar2(255)
)
create or replace type T_EMA_NP_RANGE_LNPTICKET_TAB AS TABLE OF T_EMA_NP_RANGE_LNPTICKET_REC
create or replace type T_RANGE_TICKET_TAB AS TABLE OF T_RANGE_TICKET_REC
The following types are created in the Package specification
type t_resp_rec IS RECORD
(
resp_code number,
resp_desc varchar2(255)
);
--
subtype t_ema_lnpticket is T186_IN_REQ_PARAMETER.T186_EMA_LNPTICKET%TYPE; -- Number
type t_ema_lnpticket_tab is table of t_ema_lnpticket index by binary_integer;
I have the following two procedures
PROCEDURE getEMAReturnResponse(
p_in_call_request_id IN number,
p_ema_resp_rec IN t_ema_np_setdel_resp_rec,
p_ema_range_lnpticket_tab IN t_ema_np_range_lnpticket_tab,
p_endof_event IN varchar)
PROCEDURE Return_Response(p_in_call_request_id IN number,
p_ema_resp_rec IN t_ema_resp_rec,
p_ema_lnpticket_tab IN t_ema_lnpticket_tab,
p_endof_event IN varchar2)
getEMAReturnResponse Procedure:
Accessed by Java application to pass the values. Should call the Return_Response procedure and pass the values received from Java.
Return_Response Procedure
The p_ema_lnpticket_tab is a sort of array that can have multiple values. Please see the example of values. Has all the business rules and validation that should be adhered.
Example of Vaules
p_in_call_request_id = 1
p_ema_resp_rec = 12345, 'Operation Failed'
p_ema_lnpticket_tab = (1,2,4,5)
p_endof_event = Y

The following type is created in the Package specification

PROCEDURE ProcessResponse(p_call_request_id IN number, p_resp_rec IN t_resp_rec,

The get Response procedure is a wrapper procedure exposed to Java to pass values. The Process Response procedure is a main procedure where all logics and business rules are handled.
The Problem is:
How can I pass the values from get Response procedure to Process Response procedure. So that rules and validations are applied. Please note the p_ticket_tab may have many ticket numbers corresponding to p_call_request_id.
Values E.g. :
p_call_request_id = 1
p_resp_rec (1234, 'Error found')
p_range_ticket_tab (1,2,3,4,5)
p_endof_event = 'Y'

I am trying to create a new data type but keeping getting a ORA-0902 invalid data type error. I am using the example show at:
Guess I cannot post a link until I have posted more than 5 messages so here is the link another way:
www(dot)psoug.org/reference/type.html
Specifically, all the steps work up to Create Table which fails with the error.
By work -- I mean the type gets created & the 3 select statements prior to Create Table confirm the existence of the ssn_t data type.

Through sql*plus, how can I copy a user-defined type from other schema to mine?
I've granted the execute object privilege over the user-defined type to my user, so I can use the type.
I know I can manually write and create the type, but I wanna learn (if exist) a statement to copy the user-defined type, something like:
CREATE TABLE x2 AS
(SELECT *
FROM x1);
I'm testing ORACLE DATABASE 11g R2 over Windows O. S.

2) while inserting using "values(timestamp'2011-03-24 11:03:00.05'" where this yyyy-mm-dd hh24:mi:ss.FF format comes from?
3)what is role of nls_timestamp_format of nls_database_parameters in this? how it allowed me to insert value "'12-mar-2011 14.03.00.055'" which has hh24 format?
4) Does the format of localtimestamp is decided by nls_database_parameters?

Some of the datafiles status have been changed to 'RECOVER', because the datafiles are physically missing.
Now, how can i find that when (timestamp) the status of the datafiles have been changed, as i am unable to find when the datafiles have been physically lost?
Please consider both the case :
1) when the database is in ARCHIVELOG Mode.
2) when the database is in NOARCHIVELOG Mode.

I have found there is a wearied of email generated from my database. I have the data base server located in US (estern time) and the sysdate in the database is AUSTRALIA (AEST). But i am working from India (IST).I have one procedure, which will send email to some recipients once the job is done. It is using UTL_SMTP for sending the email from database.
Now problem is, the email i got from this procedure has a different timestamp which is NOT matching to any of the times:
Time in Mail : 2-Nov-2012 9.56 PM
IST Time : 2-Nov-2012 10.56 AM

I have a table A with a column B timestamp(6). The tables contains around 300000 rows..I have created index 'idx' on the column B.When i compare column 'B' with systimestamp, it does not use the index, whereas if i compare 'B' with sysdate it uses the index.
Eg :
select count(*) from a where b<=sysdate;
The above used the index 'idx' and executed in 1 second
select count(*) from a where b<=systimestamp;
The above does not use the index and executed in 19 seconds.
