I am new to PLSQL. Please help find the solution of the below mentioned error.
Error is
Error report -
ORA-06550: line 8, column 1:
PLS-00103: Encountered the symbol "BEGIN" when expecting one of the following:
:= ( ; not null range default character
06550. 00000 - "line %s, column %s:\n%s"
*Cause: Usually a PL/SQL compilation error.
*Action:
**The code I executed is
**
DECLARE
c_id customers.ID%type :=1 ;
c_name customers.NAME%type ;
c_age customers.AGE%type ;
c_addr customers.ADDRESS%type ;
c_sal customers.SALARY%type
BEGIN
SELECT NAME, AGE, ADDRESS, SALARY INTO c_name, c_age, c_addr, c_sal FROM CUSTOMERS
WHERE ID = c_id ;
dbms_output.put_line('Customer' || c_name || ' from ' || c_addr || 'earns' || c_sal ) ;
END ;

OUTPUT SHOULD BE
Customer Ramesh from Ahmedabad earns 2000
Error says it all: "Encountered the symbol "BEGIN" when expecting ". That implies there is a syntax error before the BEGIN keyword. So look at the lines above and observe the line above does not have a terminating semi colon.
Try to do some basic debugging. Takes less time than posting the question here ;)
DECLARE
c_id customers.ID%type :=1 ;
c_name customers.NAME%type ;
c_age customers.AGE%type ;
c_addr customers.ADDRESS%type ;
c_sal customers.SALARY%type ; <<< missing semi colon
BEGIN
SELECT NAME, AGE, ADDRESS, SALARY INTO c_name, c_age, c_addr, c_sal FROM CUSTOMERS
WHERE ID = c_id ;
dbms_output.put_line('Customer' || c_name || ' from ' || c_addr || 'earns' || c_sal ) ;
END ;

I am trying to create a procedure to dump out specific data from few tables:
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE Lab9_View IS
--declare the variable
o_Id orders.OrderID%type;
o_date orders.orderdate%type;
s_date orders.shippeddate%type;
c_name customers.companyname%type;
s_country orders.shippeddate%type;
--define CURSOR for select
CURSOR Lab9_View IS
SELECT OrderId, OrderDate, ShippedDate, CompanyName, ShipCountry
FROM Orders JOIN Customers ON
customers.customerid = orders.CustomerId WHERE ORDERDATE BETWEEN '2019-08-14' AND '2019-08-23';
--exceution begin here
BEGIN
--heading line
dbms_output.put_line(' Harry''s Lab9 - Orders by COuntry Aug. 14th-23rd ');
dbms_output.put_line(' Order #' || ' '|| ' Order Date' || ' ' || 'Shipped Date' || " " || 'Company Name' || ' ' || 'Ship Country');
--execute the select
OPEN Lab9_View;
--retrieve each row from result in loop
LOOP
FETCH Lab9_View into o_id, o_date, s_date, c_name, s_country;
--end of result reach
EXIT WHEN Lab9_View%notfound;
--dump out data
dbms_output.put_line(o_id || ' '|| o_date || ' ' || s_date || " " || c_name || ' ' || s_country);
END LOOP;
--close cursor
CLOSE Lab9_View;
END;
I keep on getting this error:

4. o_date orders.orderdate%type;
5. s_date orders.shippeddate%type;

I can't spot anything different from my professor's lab notes. Can anyone see anything wrong with my code?
Thank you
You have double quotes instead of single quotes between two of the columns in your put_line commands.
create or replace procedure personWithGivenCity(city1 in varchar) as
cursor c1 is select p.name
from person p
join address ad
on p.name=ad.name
where ad.city=city1;
c c1%rowtype;
begin
open c1;
loop
fetch c1 into c;
exit when c1%notfound;
dbms_output.put_line(c.name);
end loop;
close c1;
end;
/
-- Block which class the procedure
declare
city varchar2(10):='Vasco';
begin
personWithGivenCity(city);
end;
/
The query works fine without the block. But I'm getting end-of-file error at line 3 column 11.
Table structures
Person
name varchar2(10) primary key,
gender varchar2(10),

Need guidance to solve the error
Well, I have tried your code and got a bit different error:
Err Msg: 42702 Error Message:column reference "column_name" is ambiguous
Indeed, you use column_name in return type and in select (select column_name from...). When I changed to select columns.column_name from... it worked.
But then, you have to replace schema.tablename with proper value (just like you do with i.column_name):
First:
for i IN (select columns.table_schema, columns.table_name, columns.column_name from information_schema.columns where ...
Then:
vsql := 'select count(*) from ' || i.table_schema || '.' || i.table_name || '
But remember, that you have hard-coded table_schema and table_name to be xyz.xyz in your query in for loop.
I was testing with PostgreSQL 9.5.3.
Basically in my update sql query column names going to be dynamic like
update bi_employee set <this_is_dynamic_column> where emp_id = 12
Below is the stored procedure that I have written so far.
CREATE OR replace PROCEDURE Sp_run_employee_updates
IS
CURSOR c_emp IS
SELECT *
FROM BI_EMPLOYEE_UPDATE
WHERE EFFECTIVE_DATE = To_date('30-Apr-2012', 'dd-mm-yy');
BEGIN
FOR employee_update IN c_emp LOOP
declare update_sql varchar2(225);
update_sql := 'UPDATE BI_EMPLOYEE SET '
|| employee_update.column_name
|| '= employee_update.new_value WHERE emp_id = '
|| employee_update.employee_id;
END LOOP;
END;
Its giving me foloowing errors

a- This should be like this:
to_date('30-Apr-2012','dd-mon-yyyy');
b- You can do it like this:
CREATE OR REPLACE
PROCEDURE SP_RUN_EMPLOYEE_UPDATES IS
update_sql varchar2(225);
CURSOR c_emp IS
SELECT *
FROM BI_EMPLOYEE_UPDATE
WHERE EFFECTIVE_DATE = to_date('30-Apr-2012','dd-mon-yyyy');
BEGIN
FOR employee_update in c_emp LOOP
update_sql := 'UPDATE BI_EMPLOYEE SET ' || employee_update.column_name ||
'= :1 WHERE emp_id = :2' ;
execute immediate update_sql using employee_update.new_value, employee_update.employee_id;
END LOOP;
END SP_RUN_EMPLOYEE_UPDATES;
I am doing an assignment, and am trying to get this to work:
declare sal number;
begin
sal := 1;
select min_salary into sal from jobs where job_ID = 'ad_vp';
dbms_output put_line('value is' || sal);
end;
If this was mssql, i'd never be asking this, but my studies uses oracle for this semester. Why do I get this error message, and how do I avoid it?

You are missing a dot, it should be:
dbms_output.put_line('value is' || sal);
