CFWheels - updateByKey() - The key argument contains an invalid value - model-view-controller

<cfset result = model("user").updateByKey(
key=authUser.user_id
, encryption_key=local.encryptionKey
)>
The code above returns the following error in cfwheels:
The key argument contains an invalid value.
Suggested action
The key argument contains a list, however this table doesn't have a
composite key. A list of values is allowed for the key argument, but
this only applies in the case when the table contains a composite key.
Now I have resolved this by using the update all method like this:
<cfset recordsReturned = model("user").updateAll(
encryption_key=local.encryptionKey
, where="user_id=#authUser.user_id#"
)>
I've checked the database and cannot find duplicate primary keys. I've also tried setting the instantiated=false argument in the updateByKey method but that did not work either. Any explanation as to why this might happen would be appreciated.
ps: the closest thing i have to a primary key in the table apart from the user_id is the email_address which is unique so as not to allow duplicates.

How to use auto increment index in Tarantool?

I made auto increment index:
box.space.metric:create_index('primary', {
parts = {{'id', 'unsigned'}},
sequence = true,
})
Then I try to pass nil in id field:
metric.id = nil
When I try insert this values, I catch error:
Tuple field 1 type does not match one required by operation: expected unsigned
What value do I have to pass for autoincrement field?
Second questions. If I use tarantool-cluster with few instances (for ex. cartridge-application based), is it prove use autoincrement indexes? Will there be a cases that there will be duplicate keys on different instances?
It is not possible to pass nil. When you assign nil, you erase field. Use box.NULL instead.
But better, use some kind of cluster id, which perform well across cluster, instead of autoincrement, which works only inside one node.
For cluster-wide ids I could propose UUID or something like ULID (for ex from https://github.com/moonlibs/id)

Yii2 Use Primary Key from ActiveRecord model in the same function on create

I'm not sure if anyone else has come across this in Yii2 but when you have a table with auto-increment primary keys you don't need to include the primary key attribute value when calling ActiveRecord->save() on the object for the first time.
This is good as you can write your create functions quicker without having to do your check on the primary key and doing the increment yourself in PHP. The issue here though is when you try to use the primary key in same function ActiveRecord->save(); after the save has been called it will through an error saying it hasn't been set even though the row in the database has already been written.
E.g
public function actionCreate(){
$model = new Object;
$model->save();
print_r(Object->findOne($model->primary_key_id))
}
I can get around this by just getting the most recent entry in the database and getting the primary key that way but it seems like the above should work. Is there another way to update the primary key in the ActiveRecord object?
You can use getPrimaryKey() function to get a value of a primary key. For example:
$model = new Object;
$model->save();
echo $model->getPrimaryKey(); // print primary key value

How to get the indexvalue of a column with a relation set in QSqlRelationalTableModel?

In QsqlRelationalTableModel foreign keys are resolved to human readable strings, if a relation for the column containing a foreign key is set. In my application stationids are resolved to stationnames.
For some purposes i need the stationid too. QsqlRelationalTableModel.data() or QsqlRelationalTableModel.itemData() only return the displayValue (for displayrole as well as for editrole). How can i get the corresponding foreign key (indexValue)?
QsqlRelationalTableModel.relationModel() returns a QSqlTableModel object for accessing the table for which column is a foreign key.
http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qsqlrelationaltablemodel.html#relationModel
By the setFilter() method of relationModel() the corresponding id (indexValue) can be found, if the displayValue is unique:
rm = self.relationModel(<index column>)
f = '<columnname> = "{}"'.format(<displayvalue>)
rm.setFilter(f)
id = rm.data(rm.index(0,0))
I mean you can change qsqlrelationaltablemodel.cpp file like this:
QString QSqlRelationalTableModel::selectStatement() const
......
//!!! my
fList.append(QLatin1String(", "));
fList.append(relTableAlias);
fList.append(QLatin1String("."));
fList.append(relation.indexColumn());
fList.append(QLatin1String(" as "));
fList.append(relation.tableName());
fList.append(QLatin1String("_"));
fList.append(relation.indexColumn());
I'v tested it on Qt 4.8.1.
Second variant to get you wish right result is to create own class inherited by QSqlTableModel that make as you need.
First you have to reimplemented selectStatement function and create your own behavier.
Here is a beta version of QSqlRelationalTableModelMod1 class for example:

SqlDateTime overflow thrown by Typed DataSet Insert

I'm using a Typed DataSet with an Insert statement; I have a table that has a smalldatetime field defined to accept null values. When I insert from a .NET 2.0 FormView, I get a "SqlDateTime overflow. Must be between 1/1/1753 12:00:00 AM and 12/31/9999 11:59:59 PM."
Now, I've read this post, and the parameter as sent to the class constructor is defined as
global::System.Nullable<global::System.DateTime> DoB
So, it looks like it should accept a Nullable obj. Additionally, the generated code is testing the value sent.
if ((DoB.HasValue == true)) {
command.Parameters[6].Value = ((System.DateTime)(DoB.Value));
}
else {
command.Parameters[6].Value = global::System.DBNull.Value;
}
Specifically, the error is occurring when generated SqlClient.SqlCommand.ExecuteScalar() runs:
try {
returnValue = command.ExecuteScalar();
}
So, I guess my question is: how do I use a Typed DataSet to set a blank value (passed from a FormView on CommandName=Insert) to a null in a database?
Ok, so here's what worked for me. First, to reiterate, I've got a Typed DataSet with DataAdapters that's generating the ADO objects. So, on my page, I can create a ObjectDataSource with the type that points to my adapter, and then name the different access methods housed there-in.
No, I have an Insert to a table where basically all the columns are nullable; some varchar, some smalldatetime.
When I submit an empty form, I'd like nulls to be entered. They're not and lots of various errors are thrown. What I ended up doing is subclassing the ObjectDataSource to gain access to the Inserting event. (subclassed for reusability) In the Inserting event, I looped through the InputParameters, and if it was a string and == "", I set it to null. Also, you cannot set ConvertNullToDBNull to true; that causes the strings to fail. This successfully allowed the Nullable to remain null.

LINQ to SQL -

I'm attempting to use LINQ to insert a record into a child table and I'm
receiving a "Specified cast is not valid" error that has something to do w/
the keys involved. The stack trace is:

This error is being thrown on the following code:
ResponseDataContext db = new ResponseDataContext(m_ConnectionString);
CodebookVersion codebookVersion = db.CodebookVersions.Single(cv => cv.VersionTag == m_CodebookVersionTag);
ResponseCode rc = new ResponseCode()
{
SurveyQuestionName = "Q11",
Code = 3,
Description = "Yet another code"
};
codebookVersion.ResponseCodes.Add(rc);
db.SubmitChanges(); //exception gets thrown here
The tables in question have a FK relationship between the two of them.
The parent table's column is called 'id', is the PK, and is of type: INT NOT NULL IDENTITY
The child table's column is called 'responseCodeTableId' and is of type: INT NOT NULL.
codebookVersion (parent class) maps to table tblResponseCodeTable
responseCode (childClass) maps to table tblResponseCode
If I execute SQL directly, it works. e.g.
INSERT INTO tblResponseCode
(responseCodeTableId, surveyQuestionName, code, description)
VALUES (13683, 'Q11', 3, 'Yet another code')
Updates to the same class work properly. e.g.
codebookVersion.ResponseCodes[0].Description = "BlahBlahBlah";
db.SubmitChanges(); //no exception - change is committed to db
I've examined the variable, rc, after the .Add() operation and it does, indeed, receive the proper responseCodeTableId, just as I would expect since I'm adding it to that collection.
tblResponseCodeTable's full definition:
COLUMN_NAME TYPE_NAME
id int identity
responseCodeTableId int
surveyQuestionName nvarchar
code smallint
description nvarchar
dtCreate smalldatetime
dtCreate has a default value of GetDate().
The only other bit of useful information that I can think of is that no SQL
is ever tried against the database, so LINQ is blowing up before it ever
tries (hence the error not being a SqlException). I've profiled and verified
that no attempt is made to execute any statements on the database.
I've read around and seen the problem when you have a relationship to a non PK field, but that doesn't fit my case.
Can anyone shed any light on this situation for me? What incredibly obvious thing am I missing here?
Many thanks.

Post up the schema of the parent table.
if you look here, some other people have had your problem.

It appears that Linq2SQL has trouble mapping some foreign keys to some primary keys. One guy had a resolution, but I think you are already mapping to an IDENTITY column.
Since the database isn't being called I think you have to look at the mappings linq to sql is using. What does the Association look like? There should be an Association on both the parent and child classes.
Take a look at the linq to sql Association between the two classes. The Association should have a ThisKey property. The cast that is failing is trying to cast the value of the property that ThisKey points to, I think.
As far as I can tell there can be a problem when there is more than one key and the type of the first key does not match the type that ThisKey points too. I'm not sure how linq would determine what the first key is.
From the looks of it you only have one key and one foreign key so that shouldn't be the problem, but the designer, if you are using it, has been known to get creative.
I'm pretty much guessing, but this looks like something I've seen before.
Is this an example of this bug? If so, try running your code in .NET 4.0 now that the beta is out.
If, like me, you aren't ready to start using the beta, you may be able to work around the problem. The issue seems to be that LINQ does not properly support relationships defined on non-primary key fields. However, the term "primary key" does not refer to the primary key defined on the SQL table, but the primary key defined in the LINQ designer.
If you dragged your tables into the designer, then Visual Studio automatically inspects the primary key defined in the database and marks the corresponding class field(s) as "primary keys". However, these do not need to correspond to each other. You can remove the key Visual Studio chose for you, and pick another field (or group of fields). Of course, you need to make sure this is logical (you should have a unique constraint in the database on the field/fields you choose).
So I had 2 tables/classes related to eachother using an alternative key. The parent table had 2 keys: a surrogate primary key defined as an int, and an alternative natural key defined as a string. In the LINQ designer, I had defined the association using the alternative key, and I experienced the InvalidCastException whenever trying to update that association field on the child object.
To work around this, I went into the LINQ designer, selected the int, and then changed the Primary Key property from True to False. Then I chose the string, and set it's Primary Key property to True. Recompiled, retested, and the InvalidCastException is gone.
Looking at your screen shot it looks like you may be able to fix your issue by changing the LINQ primary key on ResponseCode from ResponseCode.ID to ResponseCode.ResponseCodeTableID
ResponseCode rc = new ResponseCode()
{
SurveyQuestionName = "Q11",
Code = 3,
Description = "Yet another code"
};
and:
INSERT INTO tblResponseCode
(responseCodeTableId, surveyQuestionName, code, description)
VALUES (13683, 'Q11', 3, 'Yet another code')
Are not the same, you are not passing in the foreign key reference. Now, I'm huge n00b at LINQ2SQL, but I'd wager that LINQ2SQL is not smart enough to do that for you, and it expects it as the first parameter of the anonymous dictionary, and is trying to cast a string to an integer.
Just some ideas.
This block:
codebookVersion.ResponseCodes.Add(rc);
db.SubmitChanges(); //exception gets thrown here
Can you try InsertOnSubmit instead of Add? i.e.
codebookVersion.ResponseCodes.InsertOnSubmit(rc);
I think Add is not meant to be used to insert records if my memory serves me right. InsertOnSubmit is the one to use.
To try and narrow down the culprit.
Have you tried replacing the anonymous dictionary with something like:
ResponseCode rc = new ResponseCode();
rc.SurveyQuestName = "Q11";
rc.Code = 3;
rc.Description = "Yet Another Code";
I've yet to really work with .NET 3.5 yet (day job is still all 2.0), so I'm wondering if there is an issue with passing the data using the anonymous dictionary (The cases don't match the SQL Columns for one).
Yea, I've read that and other posts, but it always seems to involve someone linking up to a field that simply has a unique contraint. Or in this guy's case (which does sound exactly like mine), he didn't get a solution.
Here's the parent table:
tblResponseTable definition (which maps to CodebookVersion)
COLUMN_NAME TYPE_NAME
id int identity
versionTag nvarchar
responseVersionTag nvarchar
versionTag does have a unique contraint on it, but that's not represented anywhere that I can see in the LINQ-to-SQL stuff - and since nothing ever goes to the database... still stuck.
Mike, I hear you. But no matter where I look, everything looks correct. I've checked and rechecked that the ResponseTableId is an int and that Id is an int. They're defined as such in the designer and when I go look at the generated code, everything again appears to be in order.
I've examined the associations. Here they are:
[Table(Name="dbo.tblResponseCode")]
public partial class ResponseCode : ...
...
[Association(Name="CodebookVersion_tblResponseCode", Storage="_CodebookVersion", ThisKey="ResponseCodeTableId", OtherKey="Id", IsForeignKey=true)]
public CodebookVersion CodebookVersion
{
...
}
[Table(Name="dbo.tblResponseCodeTable")]
public partial class CodebookVersion : ...
...
[Association(Name="CodebookVersion_tblResponseCode", Storage="_ResponseCodes", ThisKey="Id", OtherKey="ResponseCodeTableId")]
public EntitySet<ResponseCode> ResponseCodes
{
...
}
And a screenshot of the association in case that will help:
Any further thoughts?
ResponseCode rc = new ResponseCode()
{
CodebookVersion = codebookVersion,
SurveyQuestionName = "Q11",
Code = 3,
Description = "Yet another code"
};
db.ResponseCodes.InsertOnSubmit(rc);
db.SubmitChanges();
You may want to check to see that any fields in your database tables which are set by the db server when inserting a new record have that reflected in the Linq to SQL diagram. If you select a field on the Linq to SQL diagram and view its properties you will see a field called "Auto Generated Value" which if set to true will ensure all new records take on the default value specified in the database.
LINQ to SQL has been deprecated, FYI - http://blogs.msdn.com/adonet/archive/2008/10/29/update-on-linq-to-sql-and-linq-to-entities-roadmap.aspx.
I ran into a very similar problem. I'll link you over to my wordy post: http://forums.asp.net/p/1223080/2763049.aspx
And I'll also offer a solution, just a guess...
ResponseDataContext db = new ResponseDataContext(m_ConnectionString);
CodebookVersion codebookVersion = db.CodebookVersions.Single(cv => cv.VersionTag == m_CodebookVersionTag);
ResponseCode rc = new ResponseCode()
{
ResponseCodeTableId = codebookVersion.Id,
SurveyQuestionName = "Q11",
Code = 3,
Description = "Yet another code"
};
db.ResponseCodes.InsertOnSubmit(rc);
db.SubmitChanges();
Somewhere in your object graph there is a conversion error, the underlying data model (or the Linq To SQL model) has changed. This is typically something like NVARCHAR(1) -> CHAR when it should be STRING, or something similar.
This error is not fun to hunt down, hopefully your object model is small.
