LINKED TABLE WITH QUERY INSIDE CONTAINS "/" IN COLUMN NAME - h2

I'm trying to create an H2 link to an oracle database with this query :
CREATE LINKED TABLE MyLinekTable('oracle.jdbc.OracleDriver','jdbc:oracle:thin:#127.0.0.1:1521:orcl','login','password','(SELECT "/BIC/ZBSARK" as FLOW FROM MYTABLE)');
And i get this error :
Error: ORA-01424: missing or illegal character following the escape character
; SQL statement:
CREATE LINKED TABLE P710_ParamFRS2('oracle.jdbc.OracleDriver','jdbc:oracle:thin:#127.0.0.1:1521:orcl','login','password','(SELECT "/BIC/ZBSARK" as FLOW FROM ZPARAM_FRS)') [1424-197]
SQLState: 22025
ErrorCode: 1424
I tried to escape the "/" with "\" and [] and \Q..\E but no sucess !
My remote table (on oracle) contains 2 columns : /BIC/ZBSARK and PLANT
[create table MYTABLE(
"/BIC/ZBSARK" varchar(20),
PLANT varchar(20))]
When i try with the PLANT column instead of the "/BIC/ZBSARK" column, this work well :
CREATE LINKED TABLE MyLinekTable('oracle.jdbc.OracleDriver','jdbc:oracle:thin:#127.0.0.1:1521:orcl','login','password','(SELECT "PLAN as FLOW FROM MYTABLE)');
I tried to escape the "/" with "\" and [] and \Q..\E but no sucess !
Can some one help or has the same problem ?
Thanks a lot !

This is an H2 database bug. An issue was filled about it on GitHub:
https://github.com/h2database/h2database/issues/2073
The fix will be available on the standard version after h2-1.4.199.
If needs, you can build H2 from its current sources and use the generated jar.
Sources are here:

How to create Oracle Spatial Index?

I am trying to create an Oracle Spatial index but seeing strange behavior.
I have a table in my schema as follows:
CREATE TABLE "Event" (
"EventID" NUMBER(32,0) GENERATED ALWAYS AS IDENTITY INCREMENT BY 1 START WITH 1 NOT NULL,
"Name" NVARCHAR2(30),
"Location" "SDO_GEOMETRY" NOT NULL,
CONSTRAINT "PK_EVENT" PRIMARY KEY ("EventID")
) ;
This works fine and I know I have to create an entry in user_sdo_geom_metadata, that works as you would expect with the following:
insert into user_sdo_geom_metadata (table_name,column_name,diminfo,srid) values ('Event','Location',
sdo_dim_array(sdo_dim_element('X',-180.0,180.0, 0.005),sdo_dim_element('Y',-90.0,90.0, 0.005)), 4326);
This reports success and when I do a select on user_sdo_geom_metadata I see the row. However, when I try to create the spatial index with:
CREATE INDEX "EVINDEX" ON "Event" ("Location") INDEXTYPE IS MDSYS.SPATIAL_INDEX_V2
I get the following error:
SQL Error [29855] [99999]: ORA-29855: error occurred in the execution of ODCIINDEXCREATE routine
ORA-13203: failed to read USER_SDO_GEOM_METADATA view
ORA-13203: failed to read USER_SDO_GEOM_METADATA view
ORA-06512: at "MDSYS.SDO_INDEX_METHOD_10I", line 10
The weird thing is the Index looks like it's been created.
select * from all_indexes where table_name='Event';
Shows the index??? The other odd thing is when I do a select * on ALL_SDO_GEOM_METADATA, no rows are returned??? I'm connecting as a user with almost every privilege and role but not as SYSDBA. I can't get my head around this one.
UPDATE
Incredibly, this seems to be a case sensitivity issue. If you change the table and column names to all UPPERCASE it works. It seems my neverending disappointment in Oracle has a whole new chapter. Going to try to struggle through this somehow, but like most things with Oracle, it's one unrelenting slog to get anything done :(
The documentation says:
The table name cannot contain spaces or mixed-case letters in a quoted string when inserted into the USER_SDO_GEOM_METADATA view, and it cannot be in a quoted string when used in a query (unless it is in all uppercase characters).
and
The column name cannot contain spaces or mixed-case letters in a quoted string when inserted into the USER_SDO_GEOM_METADATA view, and it cannot be in a quoted string when used in a query (unless it is in all uppercase characters).
However, it also says:
All letters in the names are converted to uppercase before the names are stored in geometry metadata views or before the tables are accessed. This conversion also applies to any schema name specified with the table name.
which you can see if you query the user_sdo_geom_metadata view after your insert; the mixed-case names have become uppercase EVENT and LOCATION.
But then:
Note: Letter case conversion does not apply if you use mixed case (“CamelCase”) names enclosed in quotation marks. However, be aware that many experts recommend against using mixed-case names.
And indeed, rather unintuitively, it seems to work if you include the quotes in the user_sdo_geom_metadata insert:
insert into user_sdo_geom_metadata (table_name,column_name,diminfo,srid)
values (
'"Event"',
'"Location"',
sdo_dim_array(sdo_dim_element('X',-180.0,180.0, 0.005),
sdo_dim_element('Y',-90.0,90.0, 0.005)), 4326
);
db<>fiddle
So it appears that the values from the view are at some point concatenated into a dynamic SQL statement, which would explain some of the behaviour.

Oracle Alter command to rename existing Column errorring

alter table tablename rename column zl_divn_nbr to div_loc_nbr;
Error while executing the above statement. Please help.
SQL Error: ORA-54032: column to be renamed is used in a virtual column expression
54032. 0000 - "column to be renamed is used in a virtual column expression"
*Cause: Attempted to rename a column that was used in a virtual column
expression.
*Action: Drop the virtual column first or change the virtual column
expression to eliminate dependency on the column to be renamed
Run the following SQL query in your database using the table name mentioned in the error message. For example, in the error message shown in this article, the table name is 'tablename'. Note that whilst the table name appears in lower case in the error message, it may be upper case in your DB. This query is case sensitive so if you receive no results, check whether the table name is upper case inside your database.
SELECT COLUMN_NAME, DATA_DEFAULT, HIDDEN_COLUMN
FROM USER_TAB_COLS
WHERE TABLE_NAME = 'tablename';
Before proceeding, make sure the Bitbucket Server process is not running. If Extended Statistics has been enabled, contact your database administrator to have them drop the Extended Statistics metadata from the table, and proceed with your upgrade. If you wish to enable Extended Statistics again after the upgrade you may do so, however be aware that you may need to repeat this process again for subsequent upgrades otherwise you risk running into this issue again.
Removing columns created by Extended Statistics requires using an in-build stored procedure,
DBMS_STATS.DROP_EXTENDED_STATS().
Usage of this stored procedure is covered further in ORA-54033 and the Hidden Virtual Column Mystery, and looks similar to the following:
EXEC DBMS_STATS.DROP_EXTENDED_STATS(ownname=>'<YOUR_DB_USERNAME>', tabname=>'tablename', extension=>'("PR_ROLE", "USER_ID", "PR_APPROVED")')

Database Upgrade Eror: column to be rename
Thanks.
Probably, you have such a table :
CREATE TABLE tablename(
id NUMBER,
zl_divn_nbr NUMBER,
zl_divn_percent NUMBER GENERATED ALWAYS AS (ROUND(zl_divn_nbr/100,2)) VIRTUAL
);
where zl_divn_nbr column is used for a computation for virtual(zl_divn_percent) column.
To rename zl_divn_nbr, all referenced virtual columns to this column should be removed, and may be created later.
The syntax for defining a virtual column is this :
column_name [datatype] [GENERATED ALWAYS] AS (expression) [VIRTUAL]
Since version 11 R1, we have this property.
ALTER TABLE rename column to
In the case of tables with virtual or 'group extension columns' the above
statement returns an error before Oracle 12cR2. For Oracle 12cR2 or newer versions the above statement runs fine cause 'renaming column' command is decoupled from the group extension aspect.

Solve problems with external table

I have problems with some Oracle external table
create table myExternalTable
(field1, field2....)
ORGANIZATION EXTERNAL
(TYPE ORACLE_LOADER
DEFAULT DIRECTORY myDirectory
ACCESS PARAMETERS
(RECORDS DELIMITED BY NEWLINE
NOLOGFILE
NOBADFILE
NODISCARDFILE
FIELDS TERMINATED BY '$')
LOCATION ('data.dsv'));
commit;
alter table myExternalTable reject limit unlimited; --solve reject limit reached problem
select * from myExternalTable;
When I select on the table I have this error :
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-29913: error in executing ODCIEXTTABLEOPEN callout
ORA-29400: data cartridge error
KUP-04040: file data.dsv in myDirectory not found
It seems that the error description is not right because normally the table is already loaded with data.dsv when created.
Plus data.dsv exists in myDirectory.
What is going on? Can somebody help?
Note :
Instead of the select, this is what I normally do :
merge into myDatabaseTable
using
(select field1, field2,.... from myExternalTable) temp
on (temp.field1= myDatabaseTable.field1)
when matched then update
set myDatabaseTable.field1 = temp.field1,
myDatabaseTable.field2 = temp.field2,
......;
This works good on my development environment but on some other environment I have the error I said before :
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-29913: error in executing ODCIEXTTABLEOPEN callout
ORA-29400: data cartridge error
KUP-04040: file data.dsv in myDirectory not found
First I thought that, in the environment it does not work, the directory did not point where it had to but selecting on dba_directories table, I could see the path of the directory is correct.
The problem is related with the access rights of the user on the operating system side. It is defined in Oracle Support Note Create Database Directory on Remote Share/Server (Doc ID 739772.1)
For my case, I created the directory with a sysdba and then for allowing other users to accesss that external table, I created another table which is creates by Create Table as Select statement for the external table. Otherwise, I need to map the Windows Oracle Service owner user to the exact Oracle user which is already defined in the note.
So, it is more like a well fitting workaround for my case.
To sum up the steps in a nutshell:
1- Create the external table T2
2- Create a table named T1 with CTAS to external table
3- Give SELECT right to T1
Hope this helps for your case.

Operation must be an updateable query - VB Script, Paradox Table

I'm using a Win XP box with BDE Administrator and Access 2007 installed. I'm able to open and perform select queries on existing Paradox tables without problem but have some very strange behavior when attempting INSERT/UPDATE. I can even create a new Paradox table and it has the same behavior. Here is sample code:
' create new table
conObj.Execute "CREATE TABLE test (id INT, comment VARCHAR(30))"
' first insert works fine
conObj.Execute "INSERT INTO test VALUES (1, 'something')"
' second insert fails for unknown reason
conObj.Execute "INSERT INTO test VALUES (2, 'something else')"
I've tried using Jet 4.0, MS Access Paradox driver, and native Paradox driver connection strings but all yield the same result. On the second insert statement it throws an error:
Operation must be an updateable query
I've read numerous posts in forums and pages on help sites that tell me this error is caused by a file permissions issue. The account running this script is part of the Administrator group and I've changed file permissions to allow the Everyone group Full Control of the db file but this changes nothing.
This page put out by Micrsoft Support did not fix the problem: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/175168
Additionally, I can create a new table but any time I try to create a PRIMARY KEY or UNIQUE field I get an error message that says:
"Index_[random characters] is not a valid name."
try
"CREATE TABLE test (id INT, comment VARCHAR(30), primary key(id))"
I don't know much about Paradox databases but this has indeed been a learning experience. Even though I have a table file called table.db that's not enough to store more than a single row of data. I also need several other files to insert or update a paradox database:
table.DB
table.PX
table.VAL
table.XG0
table.XG1
table.YG0
table.YG1
I was nosing around in another program that generates paradox databases and found when I copied a blank database from it along with these other files it generated I was able to insert and update without problems. I have no idea what these files are for or why they need to be present to insert or update but having them present fixed my issue.

check your query for double comma.
insert into TABLE_NAME (COLUMN1, COLUMN2,,COLUMN3) values(1,2,3);
(there is extra comma after COLUMN2).
Update: recently (some people have special talents) i succeed to get same exception with new approach:
update TABLE_NAME set COLUMN1=7, set COLUMN2=8
(second SET is redundant)
Unquoted identifiers must begin with an alphabetic character (see rule 6 here). You're trying to assign a value to a column with a name starting with a number 1AO00, 1AP00 etc.
Without seeing the table definition for CustomersPriceGroups we don't know if it has columns with those names. If it does then they must have been created as quoted identifiers. If so you'll have to refer to them (everywhere) with quotes, which is not ideal - makes the code a bit harder to read, makes it easy to make a mistake like this, and can be hard to spot what's wrong. Even Oracle say, on the same page:
Note: Oracle does not recommend using quoted identifiers for database
object names. These quoted identifiers are accepted by SQL*Plus, but
they may not be valid when using other tools that manage database
objects.
In you code you appear to be using quotes when you assign sQ, but the output you show doesn't; but it doesn't have the saap. schema identifier either. That may be because you're not running the version of the code you think, but might just have been
lost if you retyped the data instead of pasting it - you're not showing the earlier output of c.cuno either. But it's also possible you have, say, the case of the column name wrong.
If the execute is throwing the error, you won't see the command being executed that time around the loop because the debug comes after it - you're seeing the successful values, not the one that's breaking. You need to check all the values being returned by the functions; I suspect that g is returning a value for cpgs that actually isn't a valid column name.
As #ninesided says, showing more information, particularly the full exception message, will help identify what's wrong.
It means that the Oracle parser thinks that one of your columns is not valid. This might be because you've incorrectly referenced a column, the column name is reserved word, or because you have a syntax error in the UPDATE statement that makes Oracle think that something which is not a column, is a column. It would really help to see the full statement that is being executed, the definition of the CustomersPriceGroups table and the full text of the exception being raised, as it will often tell which column is at fault.
if you add a extra "," at the end of the set statement instead of a syntax error, you will get ORA-01747, which is very very odd from Oracle
e.g
update table1
set col1 = 'Y', --this odd 1
where col2 = 123
and col3 = 456
In addition to reasons cited in other answers here, you may also need to check that none of your table column names have a name which is considered a special/reserved word in oracle database.
In my case I had a table column name uid. uid is a reserved word in oracle and therefore I was getting this error.
Luckly, my table was a new table and I had no data in it. I was a able to use oracle DROP table command to delete the table and create a new one with a modified name for the problem column.
I also had trouble with renaming the problem column as oracle wouldn't let me and kept throwing errors.
You used oracle keyword in your SQL statement
And I was writing query like. I had to remove [ and ]
UPDATE SN.TableName
SET [EXPIRY_DATE] = systimestamp + INTERVAL '12' HOUR,
WHERE [USER_ID] ='12345'
We recently moved from SQL Server to Oracle.
The cause may also be when you group by a different set of columns than in select for example:
select tab.a, tab.b, count(*)
from ...
where...
group by tab.a, tab.c;
ORA-01747: invalid user.table.column, table.column, or column
specification
You will get when you miss the column relation when you compare both column id your is will not be the same check both id in your database
Here is the sample Example which I was facing:
UPDATE TABLE_NAME SET APPROVED_BY='1000',CHECK_CONDITION=ID, WHERE CONSUMER_ID='200'
here Issue you will get when 'CHECK_CONDITION' and 'ID' both column id will no same
If both id will same this time your query will execute fine, Check id Id both Column you compare in your code.
For me, the issue was due to use to column name "CLUSTER" which is a reserved word in Oracle. I was trying to insert into the column. Renaming the column fixed my issue.
insert into table (JOB_NAME, VERSION, CLUSTER, REPO, CREATE_TS) VALUES ('abc', 169, 'abc.war', '1.3', 'test.com', 'test', '26-Aug-19 04.27.09.000000949 PM')
Error at Command Line : 1 Column : 83
Error report -
SQL Error: ORA-01747: invalid user.table.column, table.column, or column specification
In my case, I had some.* in count. like count(dr.*)
