View 3 Replies View RelatedSQL & PL/SQL :: ORA-22835 Buffer Too Small For CLOB To CHAR Or BLOB To RAW Conversion?
Sep 24, 2008Recently I came across this issue, which gives me an error as following.
ERROR:
ORA-22835: Buffer too small for CLOB to CHAR or BLOB to RAW conversion (actual: 4907, maximum: 4000)
Now I am running a very simple query against one of the View in our Database.
Query is:
Select Prj_Num,
PM_Comments
From ProjectDetails
Where Rel = ‘2008 10’
What I have discovered so far is one of the field in this view name “PM_Comments” has more than 4000 bytes of information in it, Which is not supported by tools I have available on my computer. I have Oracle SQL Plus, SQL plus Worksheet, Access and Excel installed on my machine. DBA related to this database are stating that the field is working fine and query is executing without error since they are using TOAD for SQL, which does have capabilities to read more than 4000 bytes.
What I have figured out so far is “PM_Comments” is a LOB and SQL plus is having trouble reading this information more than 4000 bytes in one field of information.Because of this diagnosis, I have tried using following queries but it did not useful either.
Select Prj_Num,
Substr (PM_Comments, 1, 4000)
From ProjectDetails
Where Rel = ‘2008 10’
Select Prj_Num,
DBMS_LOB.Substr(PM_Comments, 4000, 1)
From ProjectDetails
Where Rel = ‘2008 10’
But both of the above mentioned queries did not work either. and I get the same ORA-22835 Error.I do not need all of the information in “PM_Comments” field, I only need about first 1000 characters of it.

Dec 13, 2012oracle 11 g xe
1) I want to pass date in '12 Dec 2012'(CHARECTER) while calling SP and in side SP i have declared parameter as DATE so I think it should not create any problem in any condition whether it is passed from oracle client or any other front end?
2) I have date in (date type variable) , how to convert it into char but it should be in iso format (i want iso format , so that it should not create any problem in any condition).
3) How to convert (date in char- in iso or any good format) into (date type variable) (so that it should not create problem and this is why i wanted char date in iso format).
4) If there is any good format and function to convert (date to char) and (char to date)?

SQL & PL/SQL :: Date Conversion
Jan 12, 2012I have an issue with date conversion. In my table dates are in this formate:
04-DEC-90 10:46:46
I need to convert it in To_date.
SQL> select to_date('04-DEC-90','dd-mon-yy') from dual;

Epoch Date Conversion
May 31, 2011My company uses Remedy which stores date/time as an integer. I use the following formula to convert it to a readable date:
TO_CHAR(TO_DATE('01/01/1970', 'MM/DD/YYYY HH:MI:SS AM')+ ((createdate - 4*3600)/(60*60*24)),'MM/DD/YYYY HH:MI:SS AM') as Create_Date
I have to use the "4*3600" in order to get the date to show up correctly, but even then the date sometimes comes up wrong. If the date occurs in the morning, then the date shows up as the previous day. I am sure this is probably due to the offset I am adding in the above formula. If I don't add the 4 hour offset, then the date shows up 4 hours off.

SQL & PL/SQL :: Date / Time Conversion
Apr 4, 2010I am converting data from an old paradox table to a new oracle table, one of the problems im having is incompatibility with date and time formats:
some columns contain times in the format : "00:00:00" eg..... "15:00:00"
some columns have date in the format: "dd/mm/yyyy" eg....... "21/08/2000"
some columns have time and date eg.. "05/09/2000 15:49:39"
Currently I have the data held in tables within an access database, and in CSV format.
eg, I have dates like 03/04/2010 which i need to be 03-APR-10....
how I can get the following into Oracle date formats? there is over 1000 records so manual conversion is out of the question

SQL & PL/SQL :: Conversion Of Julian Date Into Dd / Mm / Yyyy
Mar 8, 2010I have been given some data in excel sheet to be uploaded in an Oracle Table. The dates are in Julian. The date in Julian in excel sheet is as :-'110048'.
In the excel file, I found that the cell was formatted as General and when I changed the formatting to Date I got the result as '19/04/2211'.
tell me a way to convert this Julian to mm/dd/yyyy format to be inserted into a table in Oracle.
Tried this :-

TO_CHAR(TO
----------
18/04/4411
Not sure how to go about it.
SQL & PL/SQL :: Oracle Date Conversion Errors
Mar 14, 2011I am having a strange issue with date conversion. The errors encountered are :
PLS-00382: expression is of wrong type
PLS-00306: wrong number or types of arguments in call to '>'
The situation or test case is as follows:
create table sand_programs(prog_code varchar2(20), prog_end_dt date);
create table sand_program1(prog_code varchar2(20), filing_date number(15));
Result : Both the tables are created.
Now I create a procedure below as mentioned, to check if the filing_date is greater than the prog_end_dt or not.If the filing_date is greater than prog_ end_dt, then it should go to the 1st "dbms_output.put_line" message else it should go to the 2nd "dbms_output.put_line" message.
Here's my procedure:
create or replace procedure test_sand(p_program_cd in number) is
v_prog_end_dt date;
v_filing_date number;

Date To Timestamp Conversion Of Column With 150 Million Rows?
Oct 5, 2010Due to some business requirements a table field needs to change from date to timestamp in order to handle the millisecs.
1>When i alter the row , for a table with 150 million recs will there be a conversion. Is there a recommended way to convert the field. Mind you this field is used as a part of composite PK.
2> There is a interfacing application which connects and copies the data to its system and is using the date type, will that application be able to continue to work without any changes, if it does not care about the millisecs.
3> Will there be performance impact on an existing application that uses the date field to sort
4> Will DB need more space due to the change
Conversion Hours Incorrect When Revert To Actual Date

SQL & PL/SQL :: Display Date Ranges In One Column As Separate Date Periods (start And End Date) In Two?
Jun 1, 2010I'm trying to work out how to take a table like this:
IDDate

12516-Mar-07
12523-May-07
12524-May-07
12525-May-07
33302-Jan-09
33303-Jan-09
33304-Jan-09
33317-Mar-09
And display the data like this:
IDPeriodPeriod StartPeriod End
125102-Feb-0702-Feb-07
125216-Mar-0716-Mar-07
125323-May-0725-May-07
333102-Jan-0904-Jan-09
333217-Mar-0917-Mar-09
As you can see, it's split the entries into date ranges. If there is a 'lone' date, the 'period start' and the 'period end' are the same date.

Oracle 9i To 10g To Char Function?
Feb 11, 2009Well the company i work for has just recently upgraded from Oracle 9i to 10g. We are having various problems with the migration, and with certain code breaking. My question regards this piece of code;
[code]
to_number(to_char('a_date','YYYY'))
[code]
There are various statements like the one above scattered throughout a query i am trying to fix. When run, the query returns an "invalid number ora-01722" error, which i know is caused by the above code.
if this method of converting from date, to character was discontinued from 9i to 10g?it just seems strange as there are a lot of statements like the one above and they must have worked at some point, but now i cant even get one to work on its own.
