Teradata Raise Error - teradata

I'm making a stored proc in teradata v16 that requires me to raise an error. I can see how to make the code to capture an error (see below) but cannot figure out how to raiseerror as you can with other applications. Can some show me how to raise an error?
BEGIN
DECLARE SQL_ERR_CDE INTEGER;
DECLARE SQL_STATE INTEGER;
DECLARE TMPMSG VARCHAR(133);
L1: BEGIN
DECLARE EXIT HANDLER FOR SqlException
BEGIN
SET SQLERRCDE = SqlCode;
SET SQLSTTE = SqlState;
SET SQLMSG = TMPMSG;
SET SQL_ERR_CDE = SqlCode;
SET SQL_STATE = SqlState;
INSERT INTO DW.ERR_STD_PRC_LOG
VALUES ('DW', 'SP_INDEX_STATS' , 'E' , :SQL_ERR_CDE,:SQL_STATE, :TMPMSG, DATE, TIME);
END;

Have you tried ABORT? This should error out the SP call with whatever message you want to include:
ABORT 'Error Message';

How to remove extra information form error message after executing a package body?

I want to remove extra information form error message after executing a package body.
Example:
If I run a anonymous block then the error message come like -
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-20010: Object ID PE556092 is not Produced by the Template TP000036
ORA-06512: at "EXAMPLE.TESTPROC", line 5
ORA-06512: at line 1
But i want to show only the below error message:
ORA-20010: Object ID PE556092 is not Produced by the Template TP000036
You can use the below to get the Error Code and Message respectively:
dbms_output.put_line('Error code: '||sqlcode);
dbms_output.put_line('Error msg: '||sqlerrm);
Read more about SQLERRM.
You can do that by defining an exception and mapping it to the SQLCODE of the raised error. Then you handle the logic in the exception handler.
Example, here I map to error -20010 (the one you are using):
declare
err_obj_not_produced exception;
pragma exception_init (err_obj_not_produced, -20010);
l_object varchar2 (50);
l_template varchar2 (50);
begin
run_your_code ('With values');
exception
when err_obj_not_produced then
return 'Object ID ' || l_object || ' is not Produced by the Template ' || l_template;
end;
Another one way to hide information about previous errors. Suppose you have two procedures:
create or replace procedure proc1 is
begin
raise no_data_found;
end;
/
create or replace procedure proc2 is
begin
proc1;
exception
when no_data_found then
raise_application_error(-20010, 'There is no spoon, Neo.');
end;
/
when you run a block in SQL*Plus, you get:
SQL> begin
proc2;
end;
/
begin
*
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-20010: There is no spoon, Neo.
ORA-06512: at "DEV.PROC2", line 6
ORA-06512: at line 2
You can change proc2 like this:
create or replace procedure proc2 is
begin
proc1;
end;
/
And call it like this with desired result:
SQL> begin
begin
proc2;
exception
when no_data_found then
raise_application_error(-20010, 'There is no spoon, Neo.', false);
end;
exception
when others then
dbms_output.put_line(SQLERRM);
end;
/
ORA-20010: There is no spoon, Neo.
PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.
This example shows how third parameter of raise_application_error procedure works. If you pass false, procedure deletes information about previously raised exceptions from error stack. It also will be impossible to get this information using dbms_utility.format_error_backtrace.
As Jon Heller noticed in comments, hiding information about exceptions is a bad practice (and using when others then without raise too, as Jeffry Kemp noticed), so, I hope you know what you are doing. This way or another, it is a shooting yourself in the foot.

Highest record in PL/SQL

I have created a query that displays highest returned items from a table. My query it works perfectly with no errors! However, I want an efficient way of converting the query to PL/SQL block. The purpose of conversion is to handle errors.
SELECT ITEM_NO, MAX(QUANTITY) AS MAXIMUM
FROM ITEMS
WHERE CAT_NO >= (
SELECT MAX(ITEM_NUM) FROM ORDER
WHERE STATUS IN('ONE ITEM RETURNED','ALL ITEMS RETURNED')
)
GROUP BY ITEM_NO
ORDER BY ITEM_NO ASC;
Here's a way we do some exception handling in packages. I altered it to use your code as an example. Maybe you can use some ideas from it.
At the top, set a CONSTANT to the name of the procedure, and some variables to catch Oracle SQL error number and message in. Then in the body of the procedure, there is an anonymous block containing the select. First we set a variable to indicate where we are (err_loc) in case there are multiple locations where an error could be caught in one block. Then the select is issued. If an error occurs, it's caught by the EXCEPTION clause. Error info from Oracle is caught in the err* variables, the err_string is built and then emailed via the UTL_MAIL package. RAISE raises the error so the program halts. It's set up like this to be generic as possible, we can drop in the template, change the MBR_NAME, SQL, err_loc and that's it.
PROCEDURE TEST_PROC AS
MBR_NAME CONSTANT VARCHAR2(100) := 'TEST_PROC'; -- For use in error handling. Package member name.
err_nbr NUMBER; -- Holds a SQL error number if an exception occurs.
err_msg VARCHAR2(1000); -- Holds a SQL error message if an exception occurs.
err_string VARCHAR2(2000);
BEGIN
BEGIN
err_loc := 'Selecting max quantity'; -- Email subject
SELECT ITEM_NO, MAX(QUANTITY) AS MAXIMUM
FROM ITEMS
WHERE CAT_NO >= (SELECT MAX(ITEM_NUM)
FROM ORDER
WHERE STATUS IN('ONE ITEM RETURNED','ALL ITEMS RETURNED')
)
GROUP BY ITEM_NO
ORDER BY ITEM_NO ASC;
EXCEPTION
WHEN OTHERS THEN
err_nbr := SQLCODE;
err_msg := SUBSTR(SQLERRM, 1, 1000);
err_string := 'ERROR: ' || err_nbr || ' occurred: ' || err_msg;
-- PKG_NAME and err_email_recip set in the body.
UTL_MAIL.send(sender => PKG_NAME||'.'||MBR_NAME||'#yourcompany.com',
recipients => err_email_recip,
subject => 'ERROR '|| err_loc,
message => CHR(13))||err_string);
RAISE;
END;
END TEST_PROC;
Have a look at cursors and records.
That way you have fetch data from the query and process the line if needed.
I don't have a database by hand to test my code, but this might give you an idea how a cursor and record work.
In order to capture a EXCEPTION you could add an exception handler and let it log the record you where busy with when the exception occured.
DECLARE
CURSOR CursorName IS
SELECT ColumnOne
FROM TableA
WHERE Name = 'Me';
RecordNumber CursorName%ROWTYPE;
BEGIN
-- Fetch the records from the cursor.
OPEN CursorName;
LOOP
FETCH CursorName INTO RecordNumber;
-- Do something with the record.
EXIT WHEN CursorName %NOTFOUND;
END LOOP;
CLOSE CursorName;
END;
/
Adding a error handeling would be done right above END:
EXCEPTION
WHEN OTHERS THEN
-- Log error message.
END;
/

Does that answer you question a bit?

Cipher: failed to reserve an envelope space

I am attempting to encrypt/decrypt a SQLite database via FireDAC in a Delphi XE7 application running on Windows 7 (64 bit).
The code looks like this:
Procedure TMain.ActionBtnClick(Sender: TObject);
Begin
If ActionBtn.Caption = 'Encrypt' Then
Begin
SetPassword;
FDSQLiteSecurity.SetPassword;
End
Else
FDSQLiteSecurity.RemovePassword;
SetStatus;
End;
Procedure TMain.DBNamePropertiesButtonClick(Sender: TObject; AButtonIndex: Integer);
Begin
If OpenDialog.Execute Then
Begin
DBName.Text := OpenDialog.FileName;
SetStatus;
End;
End;
Procedure TMain.FormClose(Sender: TObject; Var Action: TCloseAction);
Var
Reg: TRegistry;
Begin
Reg := TRegistry.Create;
Try
Reg.OpenKey('\SQLiteSecurity', True);
Reg.WriteString('Database', DBName.Text);
Finally
Reg.CloseKey;
Reg.Free;
End;
End;
Procedure TMain.FormShow(Sender: TObject);
Var
Reg: TRegistry;
Begin
DBStatus.Caption := '';
Reg := TRegistry.Create;
Try
Reg.OpenKey('\SQLiteSecurity', True);
If Reg.ValueExists('Database') Then
Begin
DBName.Text := Reg.ReadString('Database');
SetStatus;
End;
Finally
Reg.CloseKey;
Reg.Free;
End;
End;
Procedure TMain.SetPassword;
Var
s: String;
Begin
FDSQLiteSecurity.Database := DBName.Text;
BEK(s);
FDSQLiteSecurity.Password := s;
End;
Procedure TMain.SetStatus;
Begin
DBStatus.Caption := FDSQLiteSecurity.CheckEncryption;
If DBStatus.Caption = '<unencrypted>' Then
ActionBtn.Caption := 'Encrypt'
Else
ActionBtn.Caption := 'Decrypt';
End;
When trying to encrypt, at the line that reads "FDSQLiteSecurity.SetPassword;", I get the following error message:
[FireDAC][Phys][SQLite] ERROR: Cipher: failed to reserve an envelope space.
I have tried to find the meaning of this error message without success. Does anyone know what the error message from SQLite is trying to tell me?
TFDSQLiteSecurityOptions FireDAC.Phys.SQLite.TFDSQLiteSecurity.Options
Have you set option soSetLargeCache ?
Use the Options property to specify the database encryption options.
Due to current SQLite encryption limitation the SetPassword / ChangePassword / RemovePassword calls will fail, if the database has blob fields with a value size greater than 1 DB page, and the database does not fit into the SQLite cache.
If soSetLargeCache is set, then SetPassword / ChangePassword / RemovePassword automatically set the cache size greater than the DB size, to fit the database into the memory in full.
If the DB size is greater than the accessible system memory, then the corresponding call fails.

wrong number or types of arguments in call to my procedure

hi I wrote this code to create a procedure to return a Boolean value based on the if conditions but when I execute it I got this error:
ORA-06550: line 1, column 7:
PLS-00306: wrong number or types of arguments in call to 'DDPAY_SP'
ORA-06550: line 1, column 7:
PL/SQL: Statement ignored
06550. 00000 - "line %s, column %s:\n%s"
*Cause: Usually a PL/SQL compilation error.
*Action:
here is my procedure
create or replace procedure DDPAY_SP (
donor_id dd_donor.iddonor%type,
pldgstatus out dd_pledge.idstatus%type,
monthplan out dd_pledge.paymonths%type,
ret out boolean)
IS
begin
select idstatus, paymonths into
pldgstatus, monthplan from dd_pledge
where iddonor = donor_id ;
if (pldgstatus = 10 AND monthplan >0)
then ret:= true;
else
ret:= false;
end if;
end;
and this how I execute it
EXECUTE DDPAY_SP (308);
I didn't put much talk I hope it's clear enough for you
I read online it recommends me to check the naming also the data type which I did but nothing change
any ideas
If you don't need the second and third arguments you could declare those as variables in the procedure instead of arguments, as follows:
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE DDPAY_SP(DONOR_ID IN DD_DONOR.IDDONOR%TYPE,
RET OUT BOOLEAN)
IS
nPayment_count NUMBER;
BEGIN
SELECT COUNT(*)
INTO nPayment_count
FROM DD_PLEDGE p
WHERE p.IDDONOR = DONOR_ID AND
p.IDSTATUS = 10 AND
p.PAYMONTHS > 0;
IF nPayment_count > 0 THEN
RET := TRUE;
END IF;
EXCEPTION
WHEN OTHERS THEN
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('DD_PAY - exception: ' || SQLCODE || ' : ' || SQLERRM);
RAISE;
END DDPAY_SP;
I've included an example of an EXCEPTION handler at the end of DD_PAY. It's always a good idea to include at least this minimal handler so that in the event an exception occurs you'll get some indication of where the problem lies.
Because this procedure returns a BOOLEAN value, and BOOLEANs cannot (to the best of my knowledge) be used from SQL*Plus, you'll have to invoke it from a PL/SQL block, as follows:
DECLARE
bRetval BOOLEAN;
BEGIN
DD_PAY(308, bRetval);
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('Returned value is ' ||
CASE bRetval
WHEN TRUE THEN 'TRUE'
ELSE 'FALSE'
END);
END;
Give that a try.
EDIT: rewrote procedure based on further information from later comments.

How to call PL/SQL function in side a trigger

I am new to pl/sql. can any one tell me how to call pl/sql function inside a trigger.
I tired it but it gives an error when i try to run it.
DROP TRIGGER INTF_CONTROLLER_TREXE;
CREATE OR REPLACE TRIGGER INTF_CONTROLLER_TREXE
before insert ON INTF_CONTROLLER for each row
begin
BACKOFFICE_UPDATE();
end;
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION BACKOFFICE_UPDATE
RETURN NUMBER IS
tmpVar NUMBER;
BEGIN
tmpVar := 0;
DBMS_OUTPUT.put_line ('HELLO');
RETURN tmpVar;
EXCEPTION
WHEN NO_DATA_FOUND THEN
NULL;
WHEN OTHERS THEN
-- Consider logging the error and then re-raise
RAISE;
END BACKOFFICE_UPDATE;
I tried to run it using TOAD. it gives the following error
PLS-00221: 'BACKOFFICE_UPDATE' is not a procedure or is undefined
You need to store the result of your function call in a local variable
For example:
CREATE OR REPLACE TRIGGER INTF_CONTROLLER_TREXE
before insert ON INTF_CONTROLLER for each row
declare
dummy NUMBER;
begin
dummy := BACKOFFICE_UPDATE();
end;
