SQL & PL/SQL :: Getting ORA-00932 Inconsistent Data Type Error
Jan 26, 2011
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'.

There we have two tables: my_comment and sys_comment.And field comment_desc in table my_comment is CLOB, and in table sys_comment is VARCHAR.
And I can run following two SQL successsfully:
SELECT comment_desc FROM my_comment;
SELECT TO_CLOB(comment_desc) FROM sys_comment;
But when I do UNION of them, execute following SQL:
SELECT comment_desc FROM my_comment
UNION
SELECT TO_CLOB(comment_desc) FROM sys_comment;
Error occurs:
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-00932: inconsistent datatypes: expected - got CLOB

I am fetching more than one column data from a table repetedly(By different query string each time) through ref cursor using concatenate function successfully. But I can see if one concatenate function is getting missed due to human intervention, it's causing failure for entaire process and returning oracle exception as "Failed - ORA-00932: inconsistent datatypes: expected - got -".

My table looks like this ->
Dp_value
124325
2434
3536
3536
Code is ->
(case when CL.DECIMALPLACES = 0 and CL.FIELDTYPE = 'D' and cl.DATATYPE = 'N'
then trim(dp."Value")*1000
else dp."Value" end) as dp_value,
What I am trying to do ->
From another table cl I want to say if decimal place is 0, fieldtype is decimal (D/C) and datatype is number (N/T)then multiply the number with 1000.
If not then leave it as it is.
When I run my code I get the error:
ORA-00932 : inconsistent datatypes: expected NUMBER got CHAR
for else dp."Value" end)

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.

We have been recommended to store data in CLOD data type.
Sample data: 1:2:2000000:20000:4455:000099:444:099999:....etc it will grow to a large number.
We want to create a Unique index, for functional reason. Is it advised to create a unique index on a CLOB datatype?

I am receiving two large export files from a vendor, so I have no control over the contents. I need to import these into our database. The two export files are very similar, except the one has slightly differenet columns in it. So, export file 1 may have a table:
COLUMN_A
COLUMN_B
COLUMN_C
The second file may have:
COLUMN_A
COLUMN_B
COLUMN_D
At the destination, I have a table that has:
COLUMN_A
COLUMN_B
COLUMN_C
COLUMN_D
Is there a parameter that would let me interchangably import either (or both) files into this destination table? This is my first attempt at data pump - but I know using import this has caused me issues. Not sure if the same limitations exist? Will the missing columns cause it to fail?

I have one requirement. We have a Package which consists of 2 Stored Procedures which has a RecordType output Parameter.
FUNCTION GET_NFE_INFO(O_status_code IN OUT NUMBER,
O_error_message IN OUT VARCHAR2,
O_message IN OUT "OBJ_FM_NFE_DOCHDR_REC",
I_fiscal_doc_id IN FM_FISCAL_DOC_HEADER.FISCAL_DOC_ID%TYPE)
return BOOLEAN is
I am working on a one Stored Procedure which would display the output from the above function as,
set serveroutput on size 9000;
DECLARE
L_stg_status FM_FISCAL_DOC_HEADER.STATUS%TYPE := 'NFE_P';
L_fiscal_doc_id FM_FISCAL_DOC_HEADER.FISCAL_DOC_ID%TYPE := 12325;
L_dummy VARCHAR2(1) := NULL;
L_status_code NUMBER(1) := 0;
L_error_message VARCHAR2(255) := NULL;
L_message "OBJ_FM_NFE_DOCHDR_REC" := NULL;
[Code]..
Here for each and every data value i am Printing it using DBMS_OUTPUT, L_message record has more than 100 columns. Is there a easy way of handling it instead of using DBMS_OUTPUT ?

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 created the following type
create or replace type type_sh_fld_rec
(
s_count count,
s_name varchar2(200),
e_date date);
/
create or replace type t_table_s_field as table of type_sh_fld_rec;
/
I have used these types in package pkg_shippers PROCEDURE process_shipments(userid);
when I run the following sql
select * from table(cast(DEV.PKG_SHIPPERS.process_shipments(324) AS T_TABLE_S_FIELD));
I get the following error.
ORA-00902 Invalid datatype.
I have tried to create the types and table from the sql prompt instead of the package spec, still no luck
Note: The sql statement works fine if I run it as schema owner but not as user who has all the privileges.

Data Type Consistency CASE and Decode
CASE expects data type consistency, DECODE not expecting.
Obviously both functions handling data types are different let it be
SQL> select decode(2,1,1, 2,'2', ' three' )"RESULT" from dual;
RESULT
---
2
SQL> select case 2
2 when 1 then 1
3 when 2 then 2
4 else 3
5 end "RESULT" from dual;
RESULT
2
SQL> select case 2
2 when 1 then 1
3 when '2' then 2
4 else 3
5 end "RESULT" from dual;
ERROR at line 3:
ORA-00932: inconsistent datatypes: expected NUMBER got CHAR
know cause of error here????I mean " every time case exp checking data type consistency"
my thought is
I am trying to get same output but different methods. Yes, clearly states this is one of the Oracle bug!
I want to know how oracle handles here ???? i mean 3rd query.Purely i am testing this function with dual(dummy) table...
obviously, no possibilities for different data type.next one i am not sure about Oracle compares int variables to int variables, char variables to char variables,
I think so .... that's why oracle throws error. am i right ??ORA-00932: inconsistent datatypes: expected NUMBER got CHAR
see this query
SQL> select case 2
2 when 1 then 1
3 when '2' then 2
4 else 3
5 end "RESULT" from dual;
// clearly i am stating what's error on 3rd line ?????Even if I refer reference books some concepts are blind to understand.
