I have the following stored procedure
CREATE OR Replace PROCEDURE sprocvPOP_GetvemployeeByFilter
(TheFilter varchar2,
TheOrder varchar2,
PageOrder int,
ItemsPerPage int,
TheCount out number,
cur out sys_refcursor)as
begin
........
end
I want to call this procedure, and print cur parameter and the count parameter values because they are out variables.
I tried using the following syntax in SQL Developer
set serveroutput on
var rc refcursor;
declare
mycount number(19);
begin
execute sprocvPOP_GetvemployeeByFilter (NULL,NULL,1,10,mycount,:rc);
print rc;
dbms_output.put_line(mycount);
end;
but I got the error
PLS-00103: Encountered the symbol "RC" when expecting one of the following:
:= . ( # % ;
The symbol ":=" was substituted for "RC" to continue.
How can I execute this procedure and print out parameters in SQL Developer?
To answer your original question, print rc is a SQL*Plus command, so it needs to be outside the PL/SQL block. execute is also a SQL*Plus command and is not used in PL/SQL. So your code should look like this:
set serveroutput on
var rc refcursor;
declare
mycount number(19);
begin
sprocvPOP_GetvemployeeByFilter (NULL,NULL,1,10,mycount,:rc);
dbms_output.put_line(mycount);
end;
/
print rc;
However, it turns out you are using SQL Developer not SQL*Plus client to run your code. Not many SQL*Plus commands are natively supported in SQL Developer. The list is here.
The latest versions of the tool come with a Command Line interface which is very neat. Find out more.
Alternatively, use the built-in Run PL/SQL functionality as described in this tutorial

I create procedure which call procedure inside another. I have an error ORA-00900: invalid SQL statement.
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE AP_MOVE_OUT
is
BEGIN
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'AP_MOVEOUT_COUNT(''GNW-M2'',to_date(''2020-11-02'',''yyyy-MM-dd''),to_date(''2020-11-06'',''yyyy-MM-dd''),''ast'');';
END;
/
Procedure compiled without any error, but when I run it:
BEGIN
AP_MOVE_OUT;
END;
/
I've got an error: ORA-00900: invalid SQL statement
ORA-06512: at "DEVUSER.AP_MOVE", line 4
ORA-06512: at line 2
00900. 00000 - "invalid SQL statement"
When I execute procedure AP_MOVEOUT_COUNT outside procedure AP_MOVE_OUT it works correctly, so I can't find the reason of these error. Here is the example that works for me outside procedure AP_MOVE_OUT:
EXEC AT_MOVEOUT_COUNT('GNW-M2',to_date('2020-11-02','yyyy-MM-dd'),to_date('2020-11-06','yyyy-MM-dd'),'ast');
Expression called by execute immediate should be a valid sql or pl/sql statement. In your case the statement is not complete. Transforming it to a complete anonymous pl/sql block should solve the problem.
create or replace procedure AP_MOVE_OUT
is
BEGIN
execute immediate 'begin AP_MOVEOUT_COUNT(''GNW-M2'',to_date(''2020-11-02'',''yyyy-MM-dd''),to_date(''2020-11-06'',''yyyy-MM-dd''),''ast''); end;';
END;
See also simple example on fiddle
Also consider using bind variables instead of concatenating values into the code.
You don't need to use EXECUTE IMMEDIATE to call a stored procedure from another. You also don't use EXEC or any other keyword.
You've said that
exec AT_MOVEOUT_COUNT('GNW-M2',to_date('2020-11-02','yyyy-MM-dd'),to_date('2020-11-06','yyyy-MM-dd'),'ast');
works, so I would expect the following procedure to work too:
create or replace procedure AP_MOVE_OUT
is
BEGIN
AT_MOVEOUT_COUNT('GNW-M2',to_date('2020-11-02','yyyy-MM-dd'),to_date('2020-11-06','yyyy-MM-dd'),'ast');
END;
In ORACLE SQL Developer, this gets execute when am trying to run procedure call with its output.
create or replace
procedure allparam_proc(name varchar2,nestedtable_param VARCHAR2_TT)
is
begin
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('allparam_proc');
FOR i IN nestedtable_param.FIRST..nestedtable_param.LAST LOOP
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE(nestedtable_param(i));
END LOOP;
end;
Problem :
set serveroutput on;
declare
fruits VARCHAR2_TT := VARCHAR2_TT('Orange','Kumquat','Grape','Banana');
begin
allparam_proc('leo',fruits);
end;
Output :
line 1: SQLPLUS Command Skipped: set serveroutput on;
In SQL Developer, Enabling serveroutput can be done via View -> Dbms Output
Using Semicolon is fine. But, Select what ever requires to be executed, and F5 (Execute as a Script) would be enough.
Good Practice, is to end every PL/SQL block with a / though the tool do it implicitly sometimes. Atleast it improves readability and continuity when the IDE has multiple anonymous PL/SQL blocks. Answers here have great explanations in detail.
I have a oracle procedure proc1 which adds two values and gives the result.I have to call this procedure from shell and show its result back to the shell.I am able to call that procedure from the shell,but it just shows that PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.But the result is not coming to the shell .
i am doing this to call the procedure from shell...
$ echo "execute proc1(10,10);"|sqlplus -s system/xxxxx#orcl
This is the procedure which is running fine .
create or replace procedure proc1
(N1 in number,N2 in number) is
begin
dbms_output.put_line(N1+N2);
end;
/
I need the output in the shell .Anyone plese help.
I am aware there is another answer showing how to use set serveroutput on and the procedure call on separate lines, however I am writing this answer as a one-liner to do the same thing.
Bascially you need to shove this into sqlplus:
set serveroutput on
execute proc1(10,10);
You might at first think this can be done on one line, separated with a semi-colon.
set serveroutput on; execute proc1(10,10);
However that doesn't work - you really need a newline character.
So the trick is to also use -e flag with echo, which can give you a newline with \n.
Using head -1 trims everyting but the line containing the procedure result.
Final one-line answer:
echo -e "set serveroutput on\n execute proc1(10,10);"|sqlplus -s system/xxxxx#orcl| head -1
P.S. I editted your question to remove the password :)
I have two .sql files both are Oracle stored procedures which both take in input parameters. I would like to first connect to a remote oracle database using sqlplus in command line and want to first use both files to create their respective stored procedures so I see them under procedures for that connection in Oracle SQL Developer.
After this I have two more .sql files which look like this and are designed to take input parameters and execute the stored procedures. This is one of the files that is meant to execute the stored procedure "REPORT".
DECLARE
NAME VARCHAR2(200);
VERSION VARCHAR2(200);
STARTDATE DATE;
ENDDATE DATE;
BEGIN
NAME := '&1';
VERSION := '&2';
STARTDATE := '&3';
ENDDATE := '&4';
exec REPORT(NAME, VERSION, STARTDATE, ENDDATE);
EXCEPTION
WHEN OTHERS THEN
RAISE_APPLICATION_ERROR(-20101,SQLERRM);
END;
/
In command prompt I first try to create the stored procedure in the database by:
C:\Users\Desktop>sqlplus username/password #report_setup.sql
When I try this the output get is just empty lines that are numbered and beginning at the number that is 1 greater then the last line of my .sql file. My report_setup.sql file is 81 lines long and the output of the sqlplus command is blank numbered lines beginning at 83.
Please let me know how I can create and execute these stored procedures properly through sqlplus.
Thanks in advance,
I think you have to remove the 'exec'-word, and it's crucial to have the slash at the bottom at the very start of the line, with no spaces in front of it:
DECLARE
NAME VARCHAR2(200);
VERSION VARCHAR2(200);
STARTDATE DATE;
ENDDATE DATE;
BEGIN
NAME := '&1';
VERSION := '&2';
STARTDATE := '&3';
ENDDATE := '&4';
REPORT(NAME, VERSION, STARTDATE, ENDDATE);
EXCEPTION
WHEN OTHERS THEN
RAISE_APPLICATION_ERROR(-20101,SQLERRM);
END;
/
It would have been more useful to show the report_setup.sql than the script that calls the procedure it creates... but from the symptoms you describe, the report_setup.sql doesn't have a / at the end of the procedure declaration.
It presumably has something like:
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE REPORT(NAME VARCHAR2, VERSION VARCHAR2,
STARTDATE DATE, ENDDATE DATE) AS
...
BEGIN
...
END REPORT;
It needs to have
...
BEGIN
...
END REPORT;
/
Since you're running it from the command line with # it should also have an EXIT at the end; but without the / that will be treated as part of the procedure, which is never compiled.
You can suppress the line number display, incidentally, by calling SQL*Plus with the -s flag - though at the moment they are useful since they show roughly what the problem is.
I had a similar issue. The problem was the encoding used, sqlplus expects UTF-8 standard enconding, wherever different encoding cause weird behavior.
Im trying to execute a refresh on a materialized view, but I cant get the script to compile.
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE REFRESH_MV AS
BEGIN
exec DBMS_MVIEW.REFRESH('my_mat_view_mv','C');
END REFRESH_MV;
I get the message:
ORA-06550: line 3, column 9:
PLS-00103: Encountered the symbol
"DBMS_MVIEW" when expecting one of the
following:
:= . ( # % ; immediate The symbol
":=" was substituted for "DBMS_MVIEW"
to continue.
Am i doing something wrong ? Need to import anything?
Update
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE REFRESH_MV AS
BEGIN
EXECUTE DBMS_MVIEW.REFRESH('my_mat_view_mv','C');
END REFRESH_MV;

CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE REFRESH_MV AS

END REFRESH_MV;

This is an Oracle 10g XE, hope thats no problem.
Thanks in advance !
I think if you just eliminate the "exec" altogether it might work better. "exec" is a SQL*Plus command. IOW, try:
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE REFRESH_MV AS
BEGIN
DBMS_MVIEW.REFRESH('my_mat_view_mv','C');
END REFRESH_MV;
