This was the sort-of expected behaviour in Oracle 11.2.0.1 with deferred segment creation.
If you have access to Oracle support you can look at document 1050193.1, which shows the same thing happening.
You can change your table creation statement to:
CREATE TABLE ORA(ID NUMBER) SEGMENT CREATION IMMEDIATE
You can also change the default behaviour via the deferred_segment_creation system parameter.
In a comment in your example code you said:
HERE IN USER IT START FROM 2 AND FROM DBA START FROM 1
I assume that 'DBA' means you tested this in the SYS schema (which generally isn't a good idea). Deferred segment creation doesn't apply there; from the documentation:
Restrictions on Deferred Segment Creation
This clause is subject to the following restrictions:
You cannot defer segment creation for the following types of tables: index-organized tables, clustered tables, global temporary tables, session-specific temporary tables, internal tables, typed tables, AQ tables, external tables, and tables owned by SYS, SYSTEM, PUBLIC, OUTLN, or XDB.

I am implementing a form on table that allows the end-user to create a new project. This form contains a shuttle that allows the user to select the disposal site(s)(1+) that the project pertains to. I would like to use the output of the shuttle values to populate an association table between projects and disposal sites which is a many to many relationship.
This is my approach so far:
Created an additional VARCHAR2(4000)in the projects table to store the shuttle output (called 'Shuttle'). The shuttle output in this column looks something like 'CA-AT-D109Z2:CA-AT-D115:CA-AT-D174Z2'.
Created a process to take separate based on ':' and then add the values to the association table using the PL/SQL code:
Declare
Cursor c_values
is
Select
t.column_value As disposal_sites
From
Table ( apex_string.split(:P28_SHUTTLE, ':') ) t
Where
t.column_value Is Not Null;
Begin
for c in c_values loop
insert into MP_MDB_PROJECT_2_DSITE (PROJECTIDFK,DISPOSALSITEIDFK)
values (:P28_PROJECTNUMBER,c.disposal_sites);
end loop;
End;
The process/code enters the values from the shuttle into the association table in a loop as expected for the the disposal site but remains blank for projectidfk (the key that is '1' in the 1:m relationship). The code doesn't throw an error so I am having trouble debugging.
I think perhaps the problem I am having is that project number is computed after submission based on the users selections.Therefore, when the process run it finds :P28_PROJECTNUMBER to be null. Is there a way to ensure the computation to determine :P28_PROJECTNUMBER takes places first and is then followed by the PL/SQL process?
All help appreciated
If the form you're implementing is a native apex form, then you can use the attribute "Return Primary Key(s) after Insert" in the "Automatic Row Processing - DML" process to ensure that the primary key page item contains inserted value for any processes execute after this process.
Just make sure the process that handles the shuttle data is executed after the DML process.
My Teradata query creates a volatile that is used to join to existing views. When linking query to excel the following error pops up: "Teradata: [Teradata Database] [3932] Only an ET or null statement is legal after a DDL Statement". Is there a workaround for this for someone that does not have write permissions in teradata to create a real view or table? I want to avoid linking to Teradata in SQL and running an open query to pull in the data needed.
This is for Excel 2016 64bit and using Teradata version 15.10.1.12
Normally this error will occur if you are using ANSI mode or have issued a BT (Begin Transaction) in BTET mode.
Here are a few workarounds to try:
Issue an ET; statement (commit) after the create volatile table statement. If you are using ANSI mode, use COMMIT; instead of ET;. If you are unsure, try each one in turn. Only one will be valid but both do the same thing. Make sure your Volatile table includes ON COMMIT PRESERVE ROWS
Try using BT ET mode (a.k.a. Teradata mode) when establishing the session. I do not remember where but there will be a setting in the ODBC configuration for this.
Try using a Global Temporary table. These work similarly to Volatile tables except you define them once and the definition sticks around. That is, you can create it in, say BTEQ, or SQL assistant etc. The definition is common to all users and sessions (i.e. your Excel session), but the content is transient and unique to each session (like a volatile table).
Move the select part of your insert into the volatile table into the query that selects the data from the volatile table. See simple example below.
If you do not have create Global Temporary table permissions, ask your DBA.
Here is a simple example to illustrate point 4.
Current:
create volatile table tmp (id Integer)
ON COMMIT PRESERVE ROWS;
insert into tmp
select customer_number
from customer
where X = Y and yr = 2019
;
select a,b,c
from another_tbl A join TMP T ON
A.id = T.id
;
Becomes:
select a,b,c
from another_tbl A join (
select customer_number
from customer
where X = Y and yr = 2019
) AS T
ON
A.id = T.id
;
Or better yet, just Join your tables directly.
Note The first sequence (create table, Insert into and select) is a three statement series. This will return 3 "result sets". The first two will be row counts the last will be the actual data. Most programs (including I think Excel) can not process multiple result set responses. This is one of the reasons it is difficult to use Teradata Macros with client tools like Excel.
The latter solution (a single select) avoids this potential problem.
Given a table:
CREATE TABLE Foo(
Id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY AUTOINCREMENT,
Name TEXT
);
How can I return the ids of the multiple rows inserted at the same time using:
INSERT INTO Foo (Name) VALUES
('A'),
('B'),
('C');
I am aware of last_insert_rowid() but I have not found any examples of using it for multiple rows.
What I am trying to achieve can bee seen in this SQL Server example:
DECLARE #InsertedRows AS TABLE (Id BIGINT);
INSERT INTO [Foo] (Name) OUTPUT Inserted.Id INTO #InsertedRows VALUES
('A'),
('B'),
('C');
SELECT Id FROM #InsertedRows;
Any help is very much appreciated.
This is not possible. If you want to get three values, you have to execute three INSERT statements.
Given SQLite3 locking:
An EXCLUSIVE lock is needed in order to write to the database file. Only one EXCLUSIVE lock is allowed on the file and no other locks of any kind are allowed to coexist with an EXCLUSIVE lock. In order to maximize concurrency, SQLite works to minimize the amount of time that EXCLUSIVE locks are held.
And how Last Insert Rowid works:
...returns the rowid of the most recent successful INSERT into a rowid table or virtual table on database connection D.
It should be safe to assume that while a writer executes its batch INSERT to a ROWID-table there can be no other writer to make the generated primary keys non-consequent. Thus the insert primary keys are [lastrowid - rowcount + 1, lastrowid]. Or in Python SQLite3 API:
cursor.execute(...) # multi-VALUE INSERT
assert cursor.rowcount == len(values)
lastrowids = range(cursor.lastrowid - cursor.rowcount + 1, cursor.lastrowid + 1)
In normal circumstances when you don't mix provided and expected-to-be-generated keys or as AUTOINCREMENT-mode documentation states:
The normal ROWID selection algorithm described above will generate monotonically increasing unique ROWIDs as long as you never use the maximum ROWID value and you never delete the entry in the table with the largest ROWID.
The above should work as expected.
This Python script can be used to test correctness of the above for multi-threaded and multi-process setup.
Other databases
For instance, MySQL InnoDB (at least in default innodb_autoinc_lock_mode = 1 "consecutive" lock mode) works in similar way (though obviously in much more concurrent conditions) and guarantees that inserted PKs can be inferred from lastrowid:
"Simple inserts" (for which the number of rows to be inserted is known in advance) avoid table-level AUTO-INC locks by obtaining the required number of auto-increment values under the control of a mutex (a light-weight lock) that is only held for the duration of the allocation process, not until the statement completes
I have an ASP.NET web application that populates the SQL Server 2008 database table like this:
INSERT INTO tblName1 (col1, col2, col3)
VALUES(1, 2, 3)
I also have a separate service application that processes the contents of that table (on the background) by first renaming that table, and then by creating an empty table as such:
SET XACT_ABORT ON
BEGIN TRANSACTION
--Rename table
EXEC sp_rename 'tblName1', 'temp_tblName1'
--Create new table
CREATE TABLE tblName1(
id INT NOT NULL IDENTITY(1,1) PRIMARY KEY,
col1 INT,
col2 INT,
col3 INT
)
COMMIT
SET XACT_ABORT OFF
--Begin working with the 'temp_tblName1' table
What I am not sure is which SQL lock do I need to use in this situation on the tblName1 table?
PS. To give you a frequency with which these two code samples run: first may run several times a second (although most times, less frequently), and the second one -- twice a day.
As some of the comments have suggested, consider doing this differently. You may benefit from using the snapshot isolation level. Using snapshot isolation requires ALLOW_SNAPSHOT_ISOLATION to be set to ON on the database. This setting is off by default, so you'll want to check whether you can turn it on.
Once you are able to use snapshot isolation, you would not need to change your INSERT statement, but your other process could change to something like:
SET XACT_ABORT ON
SET TRANSACTION ISOLATION LEVEL SNAPSHOT
BEGIN TRANSACTION
-- Do whatever this process does, but don't rename the table.
-- If you want to get rid of the old records:
DELETE [tblName1] WHERE 1 = 1
-- Then
COMMIT TRANSACTION
In case you really do need to create a new non-temporary table for some reason, you may need to do so before entering the transaction, as there are some limits on what you are allowed to do during snapshot isolation.
I have recently stumbled upon a problem with selecting relationship details from a 1 table and inserting into another table, i hope someone can help.
I have a table structure as follows:
ID (PK) Name ParentID<br>
1 Myname 0<br>
2 nametwo 1<br>
3 namethree 2
e.g
This is the table i need to select from and get all the relationship data. As there could be unlimited number of sub links (is there a function i can create for this to create the loop ?)
Then once i have all the data i need to insert into another table and the ID's will now have to change as the id's must go in order (e.g. i cannot have id "2" be a sub of 3 for example), i am hoping i can use the same function for selecting to do the inserting.
If you are using SQL Server 2005 or above, you may use recursive queries to get your information. Here is an example:
With tree (id, Name, ParentID, [level])
As (
Select id, Name, ParentID, 1
From [myTable]
Where ParentID = 0
Union All
Select child.id
,child.Name
,child.ParentID
,parent.[level] + 1 As [level]
From [myTable] As [child]
Inner Join [tree] As [parent]
On [child].ParentID = [parent].id)
Select * From [tree];
This query will return the row requested by the first portion (Where ParentID = 0) and all sub-rows recursively. Does this help you?
I'm not sure I understand what you want to have happen with your insert. Can you provide more information in terms of the expected result when you are done?
Good luck!
For the retrieval part, you can take a look at Common Table Expression. This feature can provide recursive operation using SQL.
For the insertion part, you can use the CTE above to regenerate the ID, and insert accordingly.
I hope this URL helps Self-Joins in SQL
This is the problem of finding the transitive closure of a graph in sql. SQL does not support this directly, which leaves you with three common strategies:
use a vendor specific SQL extension
store the Materialized Path from the root to the given node in each row
store the Nested Sets, that is the interval covered by the subtree rooted at a given node when nodes are labeled depth first
The first option is straightforward, and if you don't need database portability is probably the best. The second and third options have the advantage of being plain SQL, but require maintaining some de-normalized state. Updating a table that uses materialized paths is simple, but for fast queries your database must support indexes for prefix queries on string values. Nested sets avoid needing any string indexing features, but can require updating a lot of rows as you insert or remove nodes.
If you're fine with always using MSSQL, I'd use the vendor specific option Adrian mentioned.
