oracle 817 won't start...

2001-05-08 Thread lwm

Hi All,
I'm experimenting with oracle 817 on a w2k box. It was
running fine, but this morning it refused to start.
When I tried to log onto the oracle server, I got the
following error message:
ORA-01034: ORACLE not available
ORA-27101: shared memory realm does not exist

I searched the web for a solution and tried a few
things including using ORADIM to auto start the oracle
server, but nothing seemed to work. As far as I know,
there's no system change since I started it last time
and all oracle related services appeared to be
running. 

Any idea what the problem could be?

Thanks a lot.

WL

move schema away from system table space

2001-04-17 Thread lwm

Hi All,
I need to move a user/schema away from the system
tablespace to a newly created user tablespace. Could
somebody point me to the references on how to do the
job? Since a production server is running off the
schema, is it possible to do the move without having
to shut down the server?
Thanks a lot.
WL

dynamic sql questions

2001-03-21 Thread lwm

Actually, two questions here:

1. I have a dynamicly-built query that will be
executed using dynamic sql:
   select Z, (select y from tableA t1 where
t1.id=t2.id) X 
   from tableA t2;
To get the value from the query, I use:
   dbms_sql.column_value( theCursor, 1,columnValue);
   dbms_sql.column_value( theCursor, 2,columnValue);
Now, how can I get the column name (i.e. X) using
dynamic sql? 
2. I tried to use a group function in the above query
as following:
   select countZ) A, (select y from tableA t1 where
t1.id=t2.id) X 
   from tableA t2
   group by X;  
The query failed and the error message was:
   ORA-00904: invalid column name (i.e. Oracle says
that X is not a valid column name)
Is ther a way to work around this problem?
 
Thanks a lot.
