how do we know database character set is either single character set or multi character set?
While changing character-set from AL32UTF8 to WE8MSWIN1252 got "ORA-12712: new character set must be a superset of old character set".
Below are steps taken to resolve the issue -
ALTER DATABASE CHARACTER SET WE8MSWIN1252;
i got this error: ORA-12712: new character set must be a superset of old character set
below are the commands executed by me:
SQL> SHUTDOWN IMMEDIATE;
SQL> CONNECT SYS/password AS SYSDBA;
SQL> STARTUP MOUNT;
SQL> ALTER SYSTEM ENABLE RESTRICTED SESSION;
SQL> ALTER DATABASE OPEN;
SQL> ALTER DATABASE CHARACTER SET INTERNAL_USE WE8MSWIN1252;
SQL> SHUTDOWN;
SQL> STARTUP;
SQL> QUIT;
And its working...
I have not done it in proper order. Neither have done ccsscan. Still, no user reported any issues. Do my changes truncated the data?

I am testing a supposedly very simple stored procedure in XE. It compiles with no errors but when I enter the following command in the SQL Command window I get an ORA-00911: invalid character.
call get_all_customer_orgs;
The get_all_customer_orgs procedure is defined as.
create or replace procedure get_all_customer_orgs (p_recordset out sys_refcursor)
is
begin
open p_recordset for
select * from customerorgs;
end get_all_customer_orgs;
I don't understand what the invalid character could be.

The following runs no problem
SELECT
ACCO.SEQUENCE,
ACCO.DESCRIPTION,
MAX (ACCO.AUDIT_DTE)
FROM
PAS.AUDIT_CLINICAL_CARE_OPTIONS ACCO
WHERE
ACCO.AUDIT_DTE < :AuditDate AND
[code]....
However, when I try to add extra conditions to the status' in the sub select i get the error. This is one way I tried:
SELECT
ACCO.SEQUENCE,
ACCO.DESCRIPTION,
MAX (ACCO.AUDIT_DTE)
FROM
PAS.AUDIT_CLINICAL_CARE_OPTIONS ACCO
WHERE
[code]....
I've tried repeating the sub select for each of the extra status parts but everytime i hit the same problem.

I have a problem when executing the statement below querying a specific ID# in view
select * from VW_MML_LTR_MSTR where LTR_ID = 26 order by CLNT_CDE ,LTR_GRP, ltr_purp_id, LTR_CDE
I checked the data type acquired by the view and the table involved and confirmed that it was of number type.Weird thing for me is that I changed the where statement as
where LTR_ID LIKE 26
where LTR_ID != 25
Is this on the database settings? What should be done here?

I'm teaching myself to write stored procedures, working in TOAD 10.5 with Oracle 10g. I keep getting error ORA-00900: invalid SQL Statement. Here's the code, cut down to bare minimum sample size. I can't see where I'm doing anything wrong.
If I cut out the cursor (taking it down to just "Begin" and "End"), it does run, but I can't see anything wrong with the cursor.

I have written a stored procedure that has started returning the error:
Error starting at line 1 in command:
call p_glpost('DSTUK', 'L', '2008-01-01', '2008-01-01', '2011-02-18', 1, 1, 1, 0, 'Hi there')
Error report:
SQL Error: ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: character to number conversion error
ORA-06512: at "CLARITY.P_GLPOST", line 173
06502. 00000 - "PL/SQL: numeric or value error%s"
I can't seem to find a tool that will let me step into the actual stored procedure line by line to see where the error occurs. It mentions line 173, which seems to be a red-herring, as line 173 is simply one of the 'END IF' lines within this block:
IF NVL(r_dist.transtype,'wild') = 'wild' THEN
NULL;
elsif r_wip.transtype = r_dist.transtype THEN
v_matchCount := v_matchCount+1;
elsif r_wip.transtype <> r_dist.transtype THEN
[code]......
Tell me if it is possible to trace through a SP, and which tool is best (I am trying to use Oracle SQL Developer).

I got a string in the form 1+2+4.If we write select 1+2+4 from dual;then we get o/p as 7.but the same thing iam trying to do in a bit of pl/sql program by passing the string 1+2+4 value to a number variable as below.
COUNT_TASK := TO_NUMBER(TASK6_STATUS);
TASK6_STATUS value is 1+2+4 (this thing i got by replacing the string and lots of stuff) but i need the result after adding these 3 numbers in the string. and i declare COUNT_TASK as NUMBER;and i am very well aware that it gives me the error ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: character to number conversion error
how to add these numbers in my program to get the result 7.

what i feel is that oracle Database UTF8 or AL32UTF8 characterset does not support htp package properly. When i run the code on another characterset, it runs errorfree except in UTF8 or AL32UTF8.
