I have the following simple oracle query:
select A.field
from table1 A
left join table2#remotedb B on A.id = B.id
Where table B has a BLOB field
It runs fine
If i add a concat to the select:
select A.field||'x'
from table1 A
left join table2#remotedb B on A.id = B.id
I get the following error:
"ora-22992 cannot use lob locators selected from remote tables"
Why adding a concat to a filed which isn't the LOB file is giving me this error?!?
What can i do to avoid it?
check this
with sub1 as
(
select /*+ materialize */ A.field
from table1 A
left join table2#remotedb B on A.id = B.id
)
select field || 'x'
from sub1
I just ran into similar issue. It seems Oracle requires it must be guaranteed any work with clob is avoided at remote side.
Assuming #remotedb is db link to another Oracle db, consider this minimized case:
select dummy from dual; -- works
select to_clob(dummy) from dual; -- works
select dummy from dual#remotedb; -- works
select to_clob(dummy) from dual#remotedb; -- fails - ORA-22992
with m as (select /*+ MATERIALIZE */ dummy from dual#remotedb)
select to_clob(dummy) from m; -- works again, fails without hint
I also tried to find workaround based on forcing computation to local db (select /*+DRIVING_SITE(local)*/ to_clob(r.dummy) from dual local, dual#remotedb r) but with no success.

I'm having an "Invalid Identifier" in Oracle because of the "B.username" (username column does exist in USER table). When i remove this, it's working fine. How to resolve this issue? I came from a MySQL background.
SELECT * FROM (SELECT qNA.assignment, qNA.regDate, B.username, (
SELECT DISTINCT NVL(idx, 0)
FROM EK_USERGRADE
WHERE year = (SELECT DISTINCT userGradeNo FROM EK_USER WHERE ID = qNA.userIdx)
) AS userGradeIdx
FROM EK_NEWTESTAPPLICANT qNA
WHERE IDX = :idx ) A
INNER JOIN EK_USER B ON (A.userIdx = B.ID)
Let's try this with a simplified version of your query:
-- test tables
create table NEWTESTAPPLICANT as select 1 useridx from dual ;
create table B as select 1 id, 'name1' username from dual ;
-- query
select *
from (
select B.username
from NEWTESTAPPLICANT qNA
) A join B on A.useridx = B.id ;
-- ORA-00904: "B"."USERNAME": invalid identifier
There's no "username" column in the NEWTESTAPPLICANT table, which causes the error. A LATERAL inline view (examples see here) may do the trick ...
-- query
select
*
from B, lateral (
select B.username
from NEWTESTAPPLICANT qNA
) A ;
-- result
ID USERNAME USERNAME
1 name1 name1
This works with Oracle 12c.
The problem is, that both your virtual table A and users B have the same column name "username". Specify alias in the main select, like "Select A.* , B.* from(...".
Is it ORA-00903?
User is a reserved word are you sure you created this table? Table name cannot be a reserved word.
I have an oracle query that uses a created table as part of the code. Every time I need to run a report I delete current data and import the new data I receive. This is one column of id's. I need to create a report on SSRS in which the user can input this data into said table as a parameter. I have designed a simple report that they can enter some of the id's into a parameter, but there may be times when they need to enter in a few thousand id's, and the report already runs long. Here is what the SSRS code currently says:
select distinct n.id, n.notes
from notes n
join (
select max(seq_num) as seqnum, id from notes group by id) maxresults
on n.id = maxresults.ID
where n.seq_num = maxresults.seqnum
and n.id in (#MyParam)
Is there a way to have MyParam insert data into a table I would join called My_ID, joining as Join My_Id id on n.id = id.id
I do not have permissions to create functions or procedures in the database.
Thank you
You may try the trick with MATERIALIZE hint which normally forces Oracle to create a temporary table :
WITH cte1 AS
( SELECT /*+ MATERIALIZE */ 1 as id FROM DUAL
UNION ALL
SELECT 2 DUAL
)
SELECT a.*
FROM table1 a
INNER JOIN cte1 b ON b.id = a.id
I'm practically new in using oracle and I bumped into a blocker. Below is the query that I created based on what I have researched online to update multiple columns of a table with values from a nested join statement.
UPDATE
(
SELECT
A.COLUMN1 OLD_COLUMN1,
BC.COLUMN1 NEW_COLUMN1,
A.BALANCE OLD_COLUMN2,
BC.COLUMN2_MIN NEW_COLUMN2,
A.COLUMN3 OLD_COLUMN3,
BC.COLUMN3 NEW_COLUMN3
FROM TABLE_A A
INNER JOIN
(
SELECT B.TWWID,
B.ITEMDATE,
B.COLUMN2_MIN,
C.COLUMN3,
C.COUNTRYID,
C.COLUMN1
FROM TABLE_B B
LEFT OUTER JOIN TABLE_C C
ON TO_CHAR(B.ID) = TO_CHAR(C.ID)
) BC
ON A.ID = BC.ID
AND A.DATE = BC.DATE
)ABCUPDATE
SET ABCUPDATE.OLD_COLUMN1 = ABCUPDATE.NEW_COLUMN1,
ABCUPDATE.OLD_COLUMN2 = ABCUPDATE.NEW_COLUMN2,
ABCUPDATE.OLD_COLUMN3 = ABCUPDATE.NEW_COLUMN3;
Selecting the sub-query returns the expected results but when I run the update script as a whole an error is returned.
ORA-01779: cannot modify a column which maps to a non key-preserved
table
Can anyone please explain why I encounter this error and what adjustments can I do to the script to make it work?
Thanks in advance!
I 've got this problem:
I have a select statement, which is rather time consuming.
I have to join the result with itself.
I want to do something like this:
Select table1.*, table2.Consumption
from (heavy select statement) table1 left outer join
(same heavy statement) table2
on table1."id" = table2."id" and table1."Year" -1 = table2."Year"
I don't want to catch the same data 2 times. I would rather like to do something like table1 table2. Is this possible?
I need this for an application, which executes querys but isn't able to use create or something like this, otherwise i would store the data in a table.
You can use a common table expression (CTE) and materialize the results of the heavy select statement:
WITH heavy AS ( SELECT /*+ MATERIALIZE */ ... (heavy select statemenet) )
Select table1.*, table2.Consumption
from heavy table1 left outer join
heavy table2
on table1."id" = table2."id" and table1."Year" -1 = table2."Year"
Below is is some Oracle PL/SQL code to join tables without using actual JOIN keywords. This looks like a cross join? How would I convert to Netezza SQL code? That's where I'm stuck.
SELECT COUNT(*)
FROM TABLE_A A, TABLE_A B
WHERE A.X = 'Y' AND A.PATH LIKE '/A/A/A'
AND B.X = 'Z' AND B.PATH LIKE '/B/B/B';
Oracle Cross Join:
http://www.sqlguides.com/sql_cross_join.php
Here's what I tried so far:
SELECT *
from TABLE_A A
cross join (
select * from TABLE_A
) B
WHERE
A.X = 'Y' AND A.PATH LIKE '/A/A/A'
AND B.X = 'Z' AND B.PATH LIKE '/B/B/B';
EDIT:
a_horse_with_no_name:
When I use either syntax in Netezza for the COUNT(*) in the very beginning, it works and returns a count of 60, which matches the first query above when running in Oracle. Without the WHERE clause in Netezza returns 125316 results, which matches the first query above when running in Oracle. When I use either syntax in Netezza for the SELECT * in the very beginning, I get error
ERROR [HY000] ERROR: Record size 70418 exceeds internal limit of 65535 bytes'
Had to use explicit columns in Netezza when doing a CROSS JOIN. Using SELECT * throws the error as indicated in my question EDIT. Also had to escape the '%' character by escaping nothing. Thank you a_horse_with_no_name. Cheers! "Where everybody knows your name." ;-)
select A.CODE, B.CODE, LOWER(A.DIM), LOWER(B.DIM)
FROM TABLE_A A
cross join TABLE_A B
WHERE A.PATH LIKE '\A\A\A%' ESCAPE '' AND A.X = 'Y'
AND B.PATH LIKE '\B\B\B%' ESCAPE '' AND B.X = 'Y'
