In my new project, I am connecting to HP vertica using DBeaver. I have created a view on a large database (about few billion records) with size limit of 300. This view was created to setup other systems in the pipeline. After everything is setup, I want to remove the size limitation of 300 from the view and want to return all the data. Unfortunately, I can only find that command 'ALTER VIEW' for HP Vertica is allowed to simply rename the view and not modify the view itself. I am forced to drop the view and create another one but this breaks the already established data connection from other systems (Tableau) to the original view.

and

I tried using ALTER VIEW command as in SQL but I get an error -
SQL Error [4856] [42601]:

I am exporting with expdp a schema from a database and the process finishes with no error but when I try to use impdp to import the schema, several views fail to be imported with the following message:
ORA-39083: Object type VIEW failed to create with error:
ORA-00928: missing SELECT keyword
Failing sql is:
CREATE FORCE VIEW...
The create statement that is in the message effectively is missing the SELECT statement, because is truncated way before it should appear. When I check the VIEW in the source database the view is properly created.
The only possible cause I can see for this issue is the length of the statement given that all failing statements have between 389 characters and 404 characters at the point where the statements are truncated.
Is there a way to set the maximum number of characters that the expdp should be able to handle? Or is there a different way I which I should handle these views.
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.
When I'm trying to drop table then I'm getting error
SQL Error: ORA-00604: error occurred at recursive SQL level 2
ORA-01422: exact fetch returns more than requested number of rows
00604. 00000 - "error occurred at recursive SQL level %s"
*Cause: An error occurred while processing a recursive SQL statement
(a statement applying to internal dictionary tables).
*Action: If the situation described in the next error on the stack
can be corrected, do so; otherwise contact Oracle Support.
One possible explanation is a database trigger that fires for each DROP TABLE statement. To find the trigger, query the _TRIGGERS dictionary views:
select * from all_triggers
where trigger_type in ('AFTER EVENT', 'BEFORE EVENT')
disable any suspicious trigger with
alter trigger <trigger_name> disable;
and try re-running your DROP TABLE statement
I noticed following line from error.
exact fetch returns more than requested number of rows
That means Oracle was expecting one row but It was getting multiple rows. And, only dual table has that characteristic, which returns only one row.
Later I recall, I have done few changes in dual table and when I executed dual table. Then found multiple rows.
So, I truncated dual table and inserted only row which X value. And, everything working fine.
I know the post is old and solved, but maybe someone is facing or will face my situation, so I want to leave the aquired knowledge here, after deal with the error for a week. I was facing the error: "ORA-00604: error occurred at recursive SQL level 1" , but with the internal error: " ORA-06502: error: character string buffer too smal numeric or value", this happened only when I try to logon the database, and using an specific driver, trying to connect from an Visual Studio C# application, the weirdest thing on that moment was that I connect from SQLDeveloper or TOAD and everything worked fine.
Later I discovered that my machine name had this format "guillermo-aX474b5", then I proceed to rename it like this "guillermo" without the "-" and the other stuff, and it worked!! Looks like in some drivers and situations, ORACLE Database does'nt like the "-" in the LogOn connection.
Hope it helps!
I'm preparing my new Oracle 11g install for "Direct" SQL*Loader operation. As per the documentation here:
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/B28359_01/server.111/b28319/ldr_modes.htm#i1007669
To prepare the database for direct path loads, you must run the setup script, catldr.sql, to create the necessary views. You need only run this script once for each database you plan to do direct loads to.
So I execute the following sql script:
$ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin/catldr.sql
Problem is, when I run this script I get multiple errors. E.g. (and there are a lot more than this, stuff about circular synonyms too):
grant select on gv_$loadistat to public
*
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-04063: view "SUKLTI.GV_$LOADISTAT" has errors
create or replace view v_$loadpstat as select * from v$loadpstat
*
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-01731: circular view definition encountered
Synonym created.
grant select on v_$loadpstat to public
*
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-04063: view "SUKLTI.V_$LOADPSTAT" has errors
create or replace view v_$loadistat as select * from v$loadistat
*
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-01731: circular view definition encountered
Synonym created.
grant select on v_$loadistat to public
*
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-04063: view "SUKLTI.V_$LOADISTAT" has errors
from x$kzsro
*
ERROR at line 15:
ORA-00942: table or view does not exist
And then when I try to run SQL*Loader with "direct=true" I receive the following errors:
ORA-26014: unexpected error on column SYS_NTEOzTt73hE9LgU+XYHax0tQ==.DUMMYCOL NAME
while retrieving virtual column status
ORA-01775: looping chain of synonyms
Note this was a clean Oracle install with some XML schema registered(8) and tables generated off the back of the schema.
Any ideas?
The catldr.sql script says:
Rem NAME
Rem catldr.sql
Rem FUNCTION
Rem Views for the direct path of the loader
Rem NOTES
Rem This script must be run while connected as SYS or INTERNAL.
From the error messages you seem to have run it as your normal user, SUKLTI, rather than as SYS. The documentation you linked to also stated it should be run once per database - not once per end-user.
It should have been run during database creation anyway, via the catalog.sql script, so I'm surprised you need to run it manually at all; and some of the errors suggest the objects it creates did already exist. Through re-running it as SYS doesn't really look like it should hurt.
You can see which objects have been created by querying:
select object_type, object_name
from all_objects
where created > time_just_before_you_ran_the_script
You may need to cross-reference public synonyms with the all_synonyms view to check the table owner, and drop any objects it created from the SUKLTI schema as well as those new public synonyms. (But don't drop anything from the SYS schema...)
You may then need to re-run catldr.sql as SYS to recreate those synonyms pointing to the correct SYS objects.
#AlexPoole
You are completely correct. The script had to be run as SYS.
As this was a "test db" we tore it down and ran the script as SYS at DB re-creation time.
Everything now working!
thanks for reply
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.
