I have two tables, one with data about counties and another with data about states. Different states can sometimes have counties with the same exact name, so I am trying to populate a unique_name column in my counties table that is the concatenation of a county name and the abbreviation of the state where that county is located (e.g.: Honolulu County, HI).
I have come up with the following query:
ALTER TABLE counties
UPDATE unique_name =
(
SELECT concat(counties.name, ', ', states.name_abbr)
FROM counties
INNER JOIN states
ON counties.statefp = states.statefp
) WHERE unique_name = ''
However, I keep getting the following error:
DB::Exception: Unknown identifier: states.statefp, context: required_names: 'states.statefp' source_tables: table_aliases: private_aliases: column_aliases: public_columns: masked_columns: array_join_columns: source_columns: .
The inner query is working perfectly fine on its own, but I don't why this error is coming up when I try to do the update. Any ideas?
ClickHouse does not support dependent joins for ALTER TABLE UPDATE. Fortunately, there is a workaround. You have to create a special Join engine table for the update. Something like this:
CREATE TABLE states_join as states Engine = Join(ANY, LEFT, statefp);
INSERT INTO states_join SELECT * from states;
ALTER TABLE counties
UPDATE unique_name = concat(name, joinGet('states_join', 'name_abbr', statefp))
WHERE unique_name = '';
DROP TABLE states_join;
Note, it only works in 19.x versions.

Good afternoon,
how can I edit my select to avoid subquery error message inside materialized view.
ORA-22818 subquery expressions not allowed here
create materialized view vista1
refresh complete on demand
as
select f1.codigo,f1.Car,f1.codCard,f1.descripcion,f1.caracteristicas,
f1.razonsocial
f1.codigoAbs,
f1.codigoCarAbs,
(select ff.Car
from persona ff
where ff.codigo=f1.codigoabs
and ff.codCard=f1.codigoCarAbs
and rownum=1) as "absorbed reference"
from persona f1
The logic of the table and columns is as follows:
the "persona" table has columns that identify other people who were absorbed or are under guardianship,these columns are:
-codeABS y codigoCarABS
I cannot edit the structure of the tables or create others.
description:
1-the "codigo" field is the primary key of the "persona" table.
2-the "codCard" field is a unique code of the "persona" table.
3-the "codeABS" field, indicates the code of the "persona" who was absorbed, it belongs to a code from the same "persona" table.
4-the "codigoCarABS" field, indicates the CAR code of the "persona" who was absorbed, it belongs to a code from the same "persona" table.
How about a join?
SELECT f1.codigo,
f1.car,
f1.codcard,
f1.descripcion,
f1.caracteristicas,
f1.razonsocial,
f1.codigoabs,
f1.codigocarabs,
f2.car AS absorbed_reference
FROM persona f1
JOIN persona f2 ON f1.codigo = f2.codigoabs AND f1.codigocarabs = f2.codcard;
ROWNUM = 1 you used implies that there might be 2 or more rows; I believe that "my" query then misses the where clause which would make sure that only one value from f2 is fetched. Is there some timestamp column, ordinal number, ... that helps with that? If not and you don't really care which value to return, you could apply e.g. MIN function to f2.car and put the rest of selected columns into the group by clause:
SELECT f1.codigo,
f1.car,
f1.codcard,
f1.descripcion,
f1.caracteristicas,
f1.razonsocial,
f1.codigoabs,
f1.codigocarabs,
MIN(f2.car)AS absorbed_reference
FROM persona f1
JOIN persona f2 ON f1.codigo = f2.codigoabs
AND f1.codigocarabs = f2.codcard
GROUP BY f1.codigo,
f1.car,
f1.codcard,
f1.descripcion,
f1.caracteristicas,
f1.razonsocial,
f1.codigoabs,
f1.codigocarabs;
I tried looking for a similar example to my problem but could not reproduce the solution to my success.
I have 2 tables, Controller and Actions.
The Actions table has the columns Step, Script, Description, Wait_Until and Ref_Code.
The Controller table can only be joined on the Action table by the Ref_Code.
The Action table cannot have a PK because for each Ref_Code there is a Step to be taken.
Im getting an error when trying to update the Controller table using a merge statement:
ORA-30926: unable to get a stable set of rows in the source tables
My merge statement is as follows:
MERGE INTO DSTETL.SHB_FTPS_CONTROLLER ftpsc
USING (SELECT DISTINCT FTPSC.SESSION_ID,
FTPSC.ORDER_DATE,
sa.step,
sa.next_step,
LAST_ACTION_TMSTMP,
SA.ACTION_SCRIPT,
sa.ref_code,
SA.WAIT_UNTIL
FROM DSTETL.SHB_FTPS_CONTROLLER ftpsc, DSTETL.SHB_ACTIONS sa
WHERE SA.REF_CODE = FTPSC.REF_CODE
AND SA.STEP > ftpsc.curr_step
AND sa.step = ftpsc.next_step) v1
ON (v1.REF_CODE = FTPSC.REF_CODE)
WHEN MATCHED
THEN
UPDATE SET FTPSC.LAST_ACTION_TMSTMP = CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,
ftpsc.next_step = v1.next_step,
ftpsc.curr_step = v1.STEP,
ftpsc.action_script = v1.action_script
WHERE CURRENT_TIMESTAMP >= v1.LAST_ACTION_TMSTMP + v1.WAIT_UNTIL;
COMMIT;
I tried doing this using a normal update as well but Im getting ORA-01732: data manipulation operation not legal on this view.
UPDATE (SELECT FTPSC.SESSION_ID,
FTPSC.ORDER_DATE,
FTPSC.CURR_STEP,
FTPSC.NEXT_STEP,
FTPSC.ACTION_SCRIPT,
sa.step, --New Step
sa.next_step AS "NNS", --New Next Step
FTPSC.LAST_ACTION_TMSTMP,
SA.ACTION_SCRIPT AS "NAS", --New action script
sa.ref_code,
SA.WAIT_UNTIL
FROM DSTETL.SHB_FTPS_CONTROLLER ftpsc
LEFT JOIN
DSTETL.SHB_ACTIONS sa
ON SA.REF_CODE = FTPSC.REF_CODE
AND SA.STEP > ftpsc.curr_step
AND sa.step = ftpsc.next_step) t
SET t.curr_step = t.step,
t.LAST_ACTION_TMSTMP = CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,
t.next_step = t."NNS",
t.action_script = t."NAS";
COMMIT;
Any advice would be appreciated, I already understand this is because the Action table has multiple Ref_Codes but REF_CODE||STEP is unique. And the output of:
SELECT DISTINCT FTPSC.SESSION_ID,
FTPSC.ORDER_DATE,
sa.step,
sa.next_step,
LAST_ACTION_TMSTMP,
SA.ACTION_SCRIPT,
sa.ref_code,
SA.WAIT_UNTIL
FROM DSTETL.SHB_FTPS_CONTROLLER ftpsc, DSTETL.SHB_ACTIONS sa
WHERE SA.REF_CODE = FTPSC.REF_CODE
AND SA.STEP > ftpsc.curr_step
AND sa.step = ftpsc.next_step;
Is how I want the Controller table to be updated like.
Thanks in advance.
It sounds like what you want to do is: update each row in the Controller table with the matching "next step" details from the Actions table. But your Merge statement is querying the Controller table twice, which confuses things.
Is this what you're trying to do?
MERGE INTO DSTETL.SHB_FTPS_CONTROLLER ftpsc
USING (SELECT
step,
next_step,
ACTION_SCRIPT,
ref_code,
WAIT_UNTIL
FROM DSTETL.SHB_ACTIONS
) sa
ON (sa.REF_CODE = FTPSC.REF_CODE)
WHEN MATCHED
THEN
UPDATE SET FTPSC.LAST_ACTION_TMSTMP = CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,
ftpsc.next_step = sa.next_step,
ftpsc.curr_step = sa.STEP,
ftpsc.action_script = sa.action_script
WHERE CURRENT_TIMESTAMP >= ftpsc.LAST_ACTION_TMSTMP + sa.WAIT_UNTIL
AND SA.STEP > ftpsc.curr_step
AND sa.step = ftpsc.next_step;
EDIT: updated query
EDIT2: So, in your original query, in the USING section you were selecting the rows in the Controller table that you wanted to update... but you never joined those rows to the Controller table from the MERGE INTO section to match them up. Having the same alias "ftpsc" just made it less clear that they're two separate objects in the query, and which one you wanted to update.
Honestly I don't really understand why Oracle won't let you update columns that appear in the USING..ON clause. It apparently works fine in SQL Server.
I have these three tables :
RESEARCHER(Re_Id, Re_Name, Re_Address, Re_Phone, Re_HomePhoneNumber,
Re_OfficeNumber, Re_FirstScore, Re_Second_Score)
PUBLICATION(Pub_ID, Pub_Title, Pub_Type, Pub_Publisher, Pub_Year,Pub_Country, Pub_StartingPage, Pub_Number_of_Page, Score1, Score2)
WRITTEN_BY(Re_Id, Pub_ID)
I want to change the authors of the publication “Introduction to Database System” to “Henry Gordon” and “Sarah Parker”.
The problem is in WRITTEN_BY table,I just store the researcher's ID and publication's ID.
My idea is to change the Re_Id in WRITTEN_BY by those names are "Henry Gorgon" , "Sarah Parker" , which are already existed in RESEARCHER table
UPDATE WRITTEN_BY
SET Re_Id = ....( SELECT Re_Id
FROM RESEACHER
WHERE Re_Name = ‘Henry Gordon’ OR Re_Name = ‘Sarah Paker’ )
WHERE Pub_ID IN ( SELECT Pub_ID
FROM PUBLICATION
WHERE Pub_Name = ‘Introduciton to Database system’ );
I have problem in the SET part,so how to write the SQL statement for that requirement?
Here is the sqlfiddle link for my schema : http://sqlfiddle.com/#!9/b9118/1
I'd use something like below query:
DELETE FROM WRITTEN_BY WHERE Pub_ID IN (
SELECT Pub_ID FROM PUBLICATION
WHERE Pub_Title = 'Introduciton to Database system' )
INSERT INTO WRITTEN_BY
SELECT Re_Id,Pub_Id
FROM RESEARCHER CROSS JOIN PUBLICATION
WHERE Re_Name = 'Henry Gordon' OR Re_Name = 'Sarah Paker'
AND Pub_Title like 'Introduciton to Database system'
SELECT * FROM WRITTEN_BY
The idea is to first drop the existing mapping- you should not update it- and the insert a new one.
The reason for delete/insert approach vs update in case of mapping table is justified in favor of delete/insert as most mapping tables contain many-many mapping and usually one-to-many mappings.
Initially we may have a book mapped to say n number of authors where n <>1 then we either add extra rows, or are left with extraneous rows.
See sample fiddle: http://sqlfiddle.com/#!6/a0e72/13
The real deal however is CROSS JOIN. This does not take any ON like other JOINs and is used to produce cartesian product type map.
We are restricting it to get only limited number of rows as per our need by adding suitable WHERE clauses
I have a table pa_master_details and lov_details.
In the pa_master_details table, I have role_comp_emp_final_rating and role_comp_lm_final_rating columns.
In the lov_details table I have a column rating lov_value and lov_text_en.
I need to join role_comp_emp_final_rating with the lov_value column to get lov_text_en
Based on this lov_value, I need to show lov_text_en from the lov_details table.
So I wrote a query like this and am getting the result for emp rating:
SELECT p.employee_number,
p.role_comp_emp_final_rating,
lov_text_en,
p.role_comp_lm_final_rating
FROM pa_master_details P, lov_details L
WHERE p.role_comp_emp_final_rating = l.lov_value
AND p.employee_number = 34570
Similarly, I need to show lov_text_en for role_comp_lm_final_rating from the lov_details table by joining
role_comp_lm_final_rating with lov_value in the same query.
How do I do it?
I think this is what you're asking for:
SELECT p.employee_number,
p.role_comp_emp_final_rating,
lemp.lov_text_en AS "emp_lov_text",
llm.lov_text_en AS "lm_lov_text",
p.role_comp_lm_final_rating
FROM pa_master_details p
JOIN (SELECT lov_text FROM lov_details) lemp ON p.role_comp_emp_final_rating = lemp.lov_value
JOIN (SELECT lov_text FROM lov_details) llm ON p.role_comp_lm_final_rating = llm.lov_value
WHERE p.employee_number = 34570
How can I solve this error:
ORA-017779 : cannot modify a column which maps to non key-preserved table.
My Code:
UPDATE (SELECT SOBS034.T1 as OLD, SOBS063.T1 as NEW
FROM SOBS034
INNER JOIN SOBS063 ON SOBS034.ID = SOBS063.ID
where SOBS034.ID='111000' AND SOBS063.T2='' ) t
SET t.OLD =t.NEW
To update a JOIN, Oracle needs to be absolutely sure that for each row of the table you are trying to update, there will be at most one row of the joined table.
Here you'll be able to update the join if and only if SOBS063.ID is unique (explicitely declared by a unique constraint/pk).
If somehow SOBS063.ID is unique for this record with your join condition but is not declared as such, you won't be able to use this method. You could however transform this DML into an equivalent MERGE, something like this:
MERGE INTO SOBS034 a
USING SOBS063 b
ON (a.id = b.id AND a.ID='111000' AND b.T2 IS NULL)
WHEN MATCHED THEN UPDATE SET a.t1 = b.t1;
By the way SOBS063.T2='' is never true in Oracle right now.
Try to create a unique index on SOBS034 (ID) and SOBS063 (ID).
