I have several long (lines of SQL) Oracle queries that currently repeat daily as an SSIS package. The queries are all Create Table AS Select... with a bunch of joins, where clauses and selects.
The SSIS runs fine, but slow, due to nature of the linked server. Runs fine in SQL Developer. I am trying to move all queries into Oracle as scheduled jobs, but I am running into the "String value too long for attribute "job action" ORA16612. How to proceed? Tried to make a procedure of it using "Create Procedure...Begin.... execute immediate" but I get the same error on length.

How does a PLSQL script execute?
Currently, I am confused with the AWR report analysis of a PLSQL script.
I see two different SQLIDs, one for the PLSQL SQL script and another for a query executed by the PLSQL.
Is it expected to have two different SQLIDs, or some other process is running the other sql?
Just we are taking small example for Top running session for CPu.
we are checking same sqlid clicked then we are able to data for same.
I'm using latest DBeaver with Oracle 12
I need to run several inserts to different tables that are connected by foreign key
When executing multiple oracle inserts (Alt + X ) to several tables and it failed on foreign key when it shouldn't (if executed sequentially).
Executing same SQLs in PLSQL developer doesn't produce any error. (reproducible)
It seems that the inserts aren't execute in sequence
Can this behavior changed?
Found DBeaver wiki that warns for unexpected results
NOTE: Be careful with this feature. If you execute a huge script with a large number of queries, it might cause unexpected problems.
Found in disucssions solution to add inserts to PL/SQL block:
ShadelessFox
It's not possible from a DBeaver perspective, but you can use PL/SQL blocks
I am using oracle client 11.2.0
Dll version 4.112.3.0
We have a page in our application where people can give a sql statement and retreive results. basically do an oracle command.executereader
Recently one of my team members gave an update statement as a test and it actually performed an update on a record!!!!
Anyone who has encountered this?
Regards
Sid.
It is a normal (albeit a bit unsettling) behavior. ExecuteReader is expected to execute the sql command provided as CommandText and build a DbDataReader that you use to loop over the results.
If the command doesn't return any row to read is not something that the reader should prevent in any case. And so it is not expected that it checks if your command is really a SELECT statement.
Think for example if you pass a stored procedure name or if you have multiple sql batch to execute. (INSERT followed by a SELECT)
I think that the biggest problem here is the fact that you allow an arbitrary sql command typed by your users to reach the database engine. A very big hole in security. You should, at least, execute some analysis on the query text before submitting the code to the database engine.
I agree with Steve. Your reader will execute any command, and might get a bit confused if it's not a select and doesn't return a result set.
To prevent people from modifying anything, create a new user, grant select only (no update, no delete, no insert) on your tables to that user (grant select on tablename to seconduser). Then, log in as seconduser, and, create synonyms for your tables (create synonym tablename for realowner.tablename). Have your application use the seconduser when connecting to the DB. This should prevent people from "hacking" your site. If you want to be of the safe side, grant no permissions but create session to the second user to prevent him from creating tables, dropping your views and similar stuff (I'd guess your executereader won't allow DDL, but test it to make sure).
I just created a stored procedure in MS SQL DB using TOAD.
what it does is that it accepts an ID wherein some records are associated with, then it inserts those records to a table.
next part of the stored procedure is to use the ID input to search on the table where the items got inserted and then return it as the result set to the user just to confirm that the information got inserted.
IN TOAD, it does what is expected. It inserts date and returns information using just the stored procedure.
IN Oracle SQL developer however, it does the insert and it ends at that. It seems to not execute the 2nd part of the stored procedure which is a select stmt.
I just have a feeling that this is because of the jdbc adapter. Also why I'm asking is because I'm using a reporting tool Pentaho Report Designer and it would really make it easier if I can do 2 things at the same time. Pentaho Report Designer is also using jdbc adapters, not a coincidence maybe?
But if there are other things that I can tweak I'd really appreciate it.
This is a guess, but worth considering...
There are things called "Batches", where are sets of SQL Statements that are all sent to the server at once, and executed by the server as one set of statements, within a single server-side session. Sending a set of sql statements to the server as a batch will often result in different results than if you sent them one at a time, where each statement is executed in its own session.
I haven't used Toad (or Oracle) in a while, but as I recall, it dealt with batches differently than the other ide I used. If the second statement in your set is relying on being in the same session as the first, and in one ide it is in a separate session, then this might explain what is happening.
In Db trace, there is a query taking long time.Can some one explain what it means.Seems this is very generic oracle query and not involved with my custom tables.
select condition from cdef$ where rowid=:1;
Found the same query in multiple places in trc files(DB trace) and one among all have huge amount of elapsed time. So, what will be the solution to avoid taking such a long time. Am using 11g version oracle.
You're right, that is an example of Oracle's recursive SQL, the statements it runs against the data dictionary to support our application SQL. That particular statement is the query Oracle runs to get the Search Condition of a CHECK constraint. If you are inserting or updating rows in tables with check constraints you will see it a lot.
The actual statement shouldn't take too long to run, so it is unlikely to be the source of a performance problem. Unless you are running lots of insert statements with hard-coded values. Oracle will run that query every time it parses a fresh insert or update statement. That will get expensive if you're not using bind variables.
