ORA-29250 to ORA-32775

 

ORA-29250: Invalid index specifed in call to dbms_sql.bind_array
Cause: An invalid index was specified in a call to bind_array of dbms_sql. The
index may have been null or of an improper value.
Action: Correct the index value by modifying your PL/SQL program and try the
bind_array call again.

ORA-29251: Index1 is greater than Index2 in call to dbms_sql.bind_array
Cause: The value of index1 was greater than the value for index2 in the call to
bind_array. This is illegal since the elements of the table that will be bound are
those with indexes greater than or equal to index1 and less than or equal to
index2.
Action: Correct the value of the two indexes and try the call to again bind_array.

ORA-29252: collection does not contain elements at index locations in call to dbms_
sql.bind_array
Cause: The bound table does not contain elements at both index locations in call
to bind_array of dbms_sql. This is illegal. Both index locations must contain
elements. In other words tab.exists(index1) and tab.exists(index2) must both
return true.
Action: Either modify the two indexes or the contents of the table and try the call
again.

ORA-29253: Invalid count argument passed to procedure dbms_sql.define_array
Cause: The count argument specified in the call to procedure define_array of
package dbms_sql had an invalid value. Invalid values are negative numbers and
nulls. The argument must be a positive integer.
Action: Correct your PL/SQL program so that only valid arguments are passed to
define_array and try again.

ORA-29254: Invalid lower_bound argument passed to procedure dbms_sql.define_
array
Cause: The lower_bound argument specified in the call to procedure define_array
had an invalid value. Legal values are all integers (both positive and negative)
including zero. The null value is illegal.
Action: Correct your PL/SQL program so that only valid arguments are passed to
define_array and try again.

ORA-29255: Cursor contains both bind and define arrays which is not permissible
Cause: Both define_array and bind_array have been called on this cursor. This is
illegal. It is not possible for a cursor to both contain array binds and array defines.
16-2 Oracle Database Error Messages

from select queries into PL/SQL tables and array binds to bind PL/SQL tables to
non-select queries.
Action: Modify your PL/SQL program to only perform calls to one of the two
functions depending on the kind of cursor at hand.

ORA-29256: Cursor contains both regular and array defines which is illegal
Cause: Both define_array and define_column have been called on this cursor. This
is illegal. It is not possible for a cursor to both contain regular and array defines.
The semantics of this setting are nonsensical. Array defines are used to move data
from select queries into PL/SQL tables and regular defines to move data from
select queries into PL/SQL variables.
Action: Modify your PL/SQL program to only perform calls to one of the two
functions depending on the situation at hand.

by this session. The number of allowed connections varies as some may be in use
through other components which share the same pool of allowed connections.
Action: Retry after closing some other connection. The number of connections
supported is currently not adjustable.

ORA-30679: JDWP-based debugging not supported in this configuration
Cause: An attempt to open a debugging connection failed because this server
configuration cannot support the required asynchronous socket traffic detection.
Action: This feature will not work under this server configuration. Either the
feature is not supported on this platform at all, or is available only through use of
a protocol=tcp dispatcher in shared-server configurations. Please consult the
platform-specific documentation and “readme” material.

ORA-30680: debugger connection handshake failed
Cause: A problem occurred when trying to establish a debugger connection. This
might indicate that the port specified as the location of the debugger is actually
being used by some other type of application.
Action: Correct the host or port specifications if they are incorrect, and verify that
the debugger is properly waiting for a connection.

ORA-30681: improper value for argument EXTENSIONS_CMD_SET

ORA-30685: package version is not compatible with Oracle version
Cause: The installed version of the package from which this error is raised is not
compatible with this release of Oracle.
Action: Install a compatible version of the package”s spec and body.

ORA-30686: no dispatcher accepted TCP/IP connection request
Cause: A connection had to be routed through a local socket rather than a
dispatcher. When this occurs, shared servers are less beneficial because the session
that owns the socket cannot relinquish the process until the socket is closed. The
most likely cause is that no dispatcher is configured for protocol=tcp.
Action: To improve the scalability of your configuration, configure a dispatcher
for protocol=tcp. To route these particular connections through a particular set of
dispatchers, you can specify presentation=kgas. However, if you haven”t done so,
any protocol=tcp dispatcher will be used.

ORA-30687: session terminated by debugger
Cause: Your program”s execution has been stopped by the debugger. This can
occur because of an explicit request to do so sent by the debugger, or because the
debugger disconnected without first telling Oracle to let your program continue to
run after the disconnection. To stop your program completely, Oracle needs to
fully terminate the process.
Action: This is in response to a debugger request; it is not an error. No action
required.

ORA-30688: maximum program calling depth exceeded
Cause: Your program contains a set of calls that are too deep to be handled. Only
transitions between the different execution engines (SQL, PL/SQL, and Java)
count in reaching this limit; calls within the same engine don”t count.
Action: Restructure your program so as to not call so deeply. Perhaps some
recursion can be replaced with iteration.

ORA-30689: improper value for ORA_DEBUG_JDWP
Cause: An improper value was used for ORA_DEBUG_JDWP when trying to
establish a connection to a debugger. The value either did not conform to the
format of ORA_DEBUG_JDWP or was too long.
Action: Correct the value for ORA_DEBUG_JDWP and try again.

xsi:type must occur before the schema definitions for the new type can be used.
Action: Only insert elements and attributes declared in the schema. Check to
make sure that xsi:type (if used) is specified first.

ORA-30938: No prefix defined for namespace “string” (particle string)
Cause: An XML namespace mapping (xmlns:=) must
be defined for each particle (element or attribute) stored in an schema-constrained
XMLType document.
Action: Add an xmlns attribute definition (attribute name=”xmlns:prefix” and
value=”namespace URL”) to the current XMLType document. The safest place to
add this attribute is in the root node of the document to ensure that the mapping
will be in scope.

ORA-30939: Order violation: Element “string” may not follow element “string”
Cause: The XML schema specifies a content model that is sequential, where the
order of nodes in the instance must follow the order specified by the schema, and
this instance relies on the schema validity to avoid maintaining instance order
information
Action: Insert elements only in the order specified in the schema

ORA-32621: illegal aggregation in UNTIL iteration condition
Cause: An aggregate function was used in UNTIL condition.
Action: Check the SQL statement and rewrite if necessary.

ORA-32622: illegal multi-cell reference
Cause: Multi-cell reference was specified on a measure expression without an
aggregate function.
Action: Use an aggregate function on the measure expression or qualify the cell
reference.

ORA-32623: incorrect use of MODEL PRESENT* functions
Cause: A PRESENT* function (IS PRESENT, PRESENTV, PRESENTNNV) was
used in a measure expression.
Action: Check the SQL statement and rewrite if necessary.

ORA-32624: illegal reordering of MODEL dimensions
Cause: The expressions to qualify dimensions were specified in an incorrect order
within a cell reference.
Action: Reorder dimension expressions in the cell reference.

ORA-32625: illegal dimension in cell reference predicate
Cause: A non-positional dimension was referenced in the predicate.
Action: Check the SQL statement and rewrite if necessary.

ORA-32626: illegal bounds or increment in MODEL FOR loop
Cause: FOR loop allows only numeric and datetime without timezone type for
bounds. Only constants of interval and numeric types are allowed as
increment/decrement expressions.
Action: Check the SQL statement and rewrite if necessary.

ORA-32627: illegal pattern in MODEL FOR LIKE loop
Cause: The FOR LIKE pattern had zero or more than one wild characters.
Action: Simplify the pattern to have a single wildcard character.

ORA-32628: invalid nesting of MODEL cell reference
Cause: MODEL cell reference was nested too deeply.
Action: Avoid deep nesting of cell references and rewrite if necessary.

ORA-32629: measure used for referencing cannot be updated
Cause: A measure used in nested referencing is updated by a MODEL rule in the
automatic order MODEL.
Action: Modify the SQL statement or use sequential order MODEL.

ORA-32630: multiple assignment in automatic order MODEL
Cause: A MODEL cell was updated on the same measure in multiple MODEL
rules. Multiple assignment is not allowed in automatic order MODELs as it causes
in ambiguity and nondeterminism.
Action: Use sequential order MODEL or rewrite the rule to avoid this.

ORA-32631: illegal use of objects in MODEL
Cause: An object column was used as a MODEL column. Object types are not
allowed as partition by, dimension by or measure expressions.
Action: Check the SQL statement and rewrite if necessary.

ORA-32632: incorrect subquery in MODEL FOR cell index
Cause: An illegal subquery was specified in MODEL FOR cell index. A subquery
used in a MODEL FOR cell index can not have subqueries, correlation, binds and
references to WITH tables.
Action: Check the SQL statement and rewrite if necessary.

ORA-32633: MODEL subquery FOR cell index returns too many rows
Cause: Subquery in MODEL FOR cell index returned more than the allowed
maximum.
Action: Split the rule into multiple ones.

ORA-32634: automatic order MODEL evaluation does not converge
Cause: Evaluation using automatic rule ordering did not reach a convergence
point.
Action: Modify the rules or use sequential order instead.

ORA-32635: not a single cell reference predicate
Cause: A predicate that is not a single cell reference predicate was specified where
a single cell reference predicate was expected. A single cell reference predicate is
either a constant expression or a predicate of the form
Action: Make sure that the predicate is a proper single cell reference. In some
cases, you might have to put explicit type conversion operators (or casts) on the
constant expression.

ORA-32636: Too many rules in MODEL
Cause: The number of rules (possibly after rule unfolding) exceeded the
maximum number of rules allowed.
Action: Reduce the number of rules.

ORA-32637: Self cyclic rule in sequential order MODEL
Cause: A self-cyclic rule was detected in the sequential order MODEL. Sequential
order MODELs cannot have self cyclic rules to guarantee that the results do not
depend on the order of evaluation of the cells that are updated or upserted.
Action: Use ordered rule evaluation for this rule.

ORA-32638: Non unique addressing in MODEL dimensions
Cause: The address space defined for the MODEL (partition by and dimension by
expressions) do not uniquely identify each cell.
Action: Rewrite the MODEL clause. Using UNIQUE SINGLE REFERENCE option
might help.

ORA-32761: Turn off Temp LOB Ref Count Feature
Cause: None
Action: Turn off the whole temp lob ref count feature

ORA-32762: Turn on Temp LOB Ref Count Tracing
Cause: None
Action: Check Trace file for debug info

ORA-32763: Turn off N-Pass Temp LOB cleanup
Cause: None
Action: Facilitate debugging and testing ////////////////////////////
SQL function on LOBs Error numbers 32766 to 32770 are reserved for SQL
function on LOBs ////////////////////////////

ORA-32766: instr with negative offset: use varchar semantics on LOBs
Cause: The current varchar behavior is different. e.g. instr(“abcd”, “cd”, -2, 1)
returns 3, whereas instr(to_clob(“abcd”), “cd”, -2, 1) returns 0, (i.e. no match),
because the reverse search starts from offset -2, which points to “c” and moving
backward, i.e. “d” is ignored. This is symmetric to instr(“dcba”,”dc”,2,1), which
returns 0.
Action: ORACLE uses the same varchar semantics on LOBs (instr). Using the
same example, instr(to_clob(“abcd”), “cd”, -2, 1) will return 3 as in the varchar case.

ORA-32767: No server connection for this operation
Cause: The client side sql or plsql function operation requires a connection to the
server, but currently no client/server connection existed.
Action: Establish a client/server connection.

Cause: An attempt was made to add the second file to a bigfile tablespace.
Action: Do not use this command with bigfile tablespace.

ORA-32772: BIGFILE is invalid option for this type of tablespace
Cause: An attempt was made to create a bigfile tablespace that is dictionary
managed or locally managed with manual segment-space management.
Action: Either change the tablespace type to locally managed with automatic
segment-space management, or create a SMALLFILE tablespace instead.

ORA-32773: operation not supported for smallfile tablespace string
Cause: An attempt was made to perform an operation which is supported only
for bigfile tablespaces, e.g. resize tablespace.
Action: Use the appropriate clause of the ALTER DATABASE DATAFILE
command instead.

ORA-32774: more than one file was specified for bigfile tablespace string
Cause: More than one datafile or tempfile was specified in CREATE
TABLESPACE command for a bigfile tablespace.
Action: Change command to contain only one file or create a smallfile tablespace
instead.

ORA-32775: cannot change size attributes of read only tablespace string
Cause: An attempt was made to change size attributes of a tablespace that is read
only.
Action: Change the tablespace to read/write and retry the operation.

 
Good Luck !
