I am using oracle dbms and created a table. One of the attributes of the table is of type date. Even after entering in YYYY-MM-DD format it still shows error ORA-01843.
This is my query
insert into reserves values(120,001,'2012-01-11');
This is the error
ORA-01843: not a valid month
ORA-06512: at "SYS.DBMS_SQL", line 1721
insert into reserves values(120,001,'2012-01-11');
I tried inserting month names and also rearranging the date, still no success.
I am trying to insert this set of values
You better tell the DB the format of the date string, like this
insert into reserves values(120,001,to_date('2012-01-11','yyyy-mm-dd');
You can also set the NLS_DATE_FORMAT like this
alter session set nls_date_format='yyyy-mm-dd';
(or whatever format you like) and then use the syntax you show in the question
insert into reserves values(120,001,DATE'2023-01-25');
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.
ALTER TABLE abc ADD PARTITION (year = 2014,month=1,day=1) location '/data/input/abc/year=2014/month=1/day=1';
FAILED: ParseException line 1:47 character ' ' not supported here
why this error is coming up
It appears the error is occurring because you have a space inside your partition command.
year = 2014
Try instead
year=2014
...assuming your year column is of int. Type. If it's a string you'd need
year='2014'
I have the following problem: We have a DB2 Table with a Character Field of the size 4000.
Somehow this field gets interpreted in oracle as varchar2(0 Char) when i view it via Oracle Gateway.
CREATE OR REPLACE FORCE VIEW DB2SCHEMA.TEST_TABLE
(
ID,
TEXT
)
AS
SELECT TRIM ("ID") AS ID,
NULL AS "TEXT
FROM XT.TEST_TABLE#DB2SCHEMA;
Has anybody ever expirienced this issue? For some reason Oracle will treat this field as long. I'm using Oracle 11g. What i want is to show it as normal text field (in DB2 it is a fixed length character field)
Thanks for some inputs and maybe somebody knows how to get this as a normal Varchar2(4000 Char).
DESC XT.TEST_TABLE#DB2SCHEMA;
ORA-00604: error occurred at recursive SQL level 1
ORA-28500: connection from ORACLE to a non-Oracle system returned this message:

ORA-02063: preceding 2 lines from QDBC
As before the select * from view did provide a 0 character field we have changed an Oracle Parameter
HS_KEEP_REMOTE_COLUMN_SIZE=LOCAL
This provides the correct result with select * from view. My believe is that this is the solution.
I've never used Oracle Gateway or DB2, but any view you create by selecting "null as some_col" is going to define that column as varchar2(0). You're not even referencing the column you're talking about from the DB2SCHEMA (you're selecting NULL, not the TEXT column.
You could try replacing this line:
NULL AS "TEXT
with:
TEXT AS TEXT
or possibly:
SUBSTR(TEXT,1,2000) || SUBSTR(TEXT,2001,4000) AS TEXT
Oracle's maximum size for CHAR columns is 2000, so I'm not sure if you can just select the column directly.
Edit: As per comments, the OP's issue was fixed via changing the Oracle parameter:
HS_KEEP_REMOTE_COLUMN_SIZE=LOCAL

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.*)
