Subject: RE: Locating error position in DBD::Oracle
Yes, use $dbh-{ora_parse_error_offset
Some sql editors, such as sqlplus, seem to be able to locate the
position within an SQL statement where a syntax error occurs. I have
looked through the DBD::Oracle documentation and have not been able to
find such a thing mentioned. Does DBD::Oracle support this, or is it a
feature that can not
Chris,
As long as you keep the 8.1.7 ORACLE_HOME around to support your
existing perl installation, you should not have to recompile. In my
experience, the 8.1.x libraries work fine for communicating with Oracle
9.x servers. My experience is limited to Red Hat Linux, though.
I have compiled
The Oracle client looks for tnsnames.ora in the
$ORACLE_HOME/network/admin directory. We typically set the Perl
variable $ENV{ORACLE_HOME} to the location of the Oracle installation in
our database connection modules prior to any attempt to open a database
connection.

Have you looked at the DBI documentation for $dbh-commit and $dbh-rollback? You
have to make sure AutoCommit is off, but this too is explained in the documentation
for these functions. I found perldoc DBI to be sufficient for anything I needed to
do.

For my personal edification, could someone point me at the site where ANSI SQL is
documented? I'm just curious to find out how far from standard Oracle is.
Thanks!

Looking at the Oracle 8 Server Concepts manual, a transaction is committed explicitly
by a commit statement or implicity when a DDL statement is issued. My understanding
is that a create table statement is a DDL statement. Thus an implied commit occurs
at that point in your code and you can
I had a similar problem before and was forwarded the tidbit below. I can't tell from
the description of your problem if it is exactly the same as what I was experiencing.
I hope this helps.
This tip courtesy of Tim Bunce:
use DBI qw(:sql_types);
$sth-bind_param(1, $value, SQL_CHAR);
Have you tried a SELECT query against your materialized view to make sure
there isn't a permissions problem with the view or one of the underlying
tables?

As of Oracle 8.0.5, the DESCRIBE command was not part of the server code.
It was only supported by tools such as sqlplus. I have not tried newer
versions of Oracle, but I notice that DESCRIBE is not in the SQL Reference
for 9i. Here is a query that should work for you:
SELECT COLUMN_NAME,
Stan,
I don't completely understand your application, but here is the query I'd
use.
SELECT COUNT(*) FROM ALL_OBJECTS O, ALL_TAB_COLUMNS C
WHERE
O.OWNER = 'FOO'
AND OBJECT_NAME = 'BAR'
AND COLUMN_NAME IN ('BLAH', 'RAH')
AND OBJECT_TYPE IN ('TABLE', 'VIEW')
AND O.OWNER = C.OWNER
AND TABLE_NAME
John,
At the minimum, the Oracle client needs to know where ORACLE_HOME is. All
of our scripts set $ENV{ORACLE_HOME} to the correct value prior to
attempting to establish a new database connection.
That being said, I'm not convinced the problem is with an environment
variable. To me, this

I've got an application where I need to use bind variables to populate many
tables of a reporting server nightly. I'm using DBD::Oracle to access the
target server. If I use $sth-bind_param ($num, ' ') Oracle treats the
string of spaces as a NULL in my insert statement. Since NULLS aren't
