I am planning to use flywayDb to automate SQL script migration part of my project for the same purpose i tried to test it but it failed one one SQL script saying some Invalid Character error which I am unable to identify where as same script is working fine inside AQT/SQL Developer.
Do we have any restrictions or standards need to follow while using command line migrate?
I have doubt on some values which are using single quote and slash symbols... like below
'Family Member''s' OR SOME \ TEXT
Please suggest.
I was able to find issue problem was with one merge statement in which field value and field name was not having space
hence flyway DB was throwing error...I added one space and it worked. Where as without removing space works fine in AQT and sqldeveloper
MERGE INTO TEST.question ques USING
(SELECT '2004'question_id,'Details (Header)' question_text FROM DUAL) S
ON (ques.Question_id = S.Question_id)
WHEN MATCHED THEN UPDATE
SET
ques.text=S.text;
Correct one
MERGE INTO TEST.question ques USING
(SELECT '2004' question_id,'Details (Header)' question_text FROM DUAL) S
ON (ques.Question_id = S.Question_id)
WHEN MATCHED THEN UPDATE
SET
ques.text=S.text;

I am trying to change the type of a column from VARCHAR to INT.
During the deployment, the database project will stop the deployment due to the "data loss" error:
RAISERROR (N'Rows were detected. The schema update is terminating because data loss might occur.', 16, 127)
I know the data is convertible and if I run a manual ALTER TABLE script it will be fine. However, I cannot integrate that properly with this scenario to avoid the error during the deployment.
What is your solution to resolve my problem?
Is there a method
to override this behaviour in a database project and for this
particular case, use a custom script?
One way in such scenario is using PreDeployment script and deploy twice.
Change data type column in table definition as usual
Add in Predeploy script:
-- this script has to be idempotent, and removed after some time
IF EXISTS (SELECT 1
FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS
WHERE TABLE_NAME = 'table_name'
AND TABLE_SCHEMA = 'schema_name'
AND COLUMN_NAME = 'column_name
AND DATA_TYPE != 'INT'
)
BEGIN
ALTER TABLE schema_name.table_name ALTER COLUMN Column_name INT NULL/NOT NULL;
END
First publish will change the data type during PreDeploy, and deploy will fail with Potential Data loss error.
Second publish will omit the part of PreDeploy(if condition), and schema compare does not detect any changes, meaning it has been changed.
Next step should be removing the manual part from PreDeployment script.
I've been attempting to increase my knowledge and trying out some challenges. I've been going at this for a solid two weeks now finished most of the challenge but this one part remains. The error is shown below, what am i not understanding?
Error in sqlite query: update users set last_browser= 'mozilla' + select sql from sqlite_master'', last_time= '13-04-2019' where id = '14'
edited for clarity:
I'm trying a CTF challenge and I'm completely new to this kind of thing so I'm learning as I go. There is a login page with test credentials we can use for obtaining many of the flags. I have obtained most of the flags and this is the last one that remains.
After I login on the webapp with the provided test credentials, the following messages appear: this link
The question for the flag is "What value is hidden in the database table secret?"
So from the previous image, I have attempted to use sql injection to obtain value. This is done by using burp suite and attempting to inject through the user-agent.
I have gone through trying to use many variants of the injection attempt shown above. Im struggling to find out where I am going wrong, especially since the second single-quote is added automatically in the query. I've gone through the sqlite documentation and examples of sql injection, but I cannot sem to understand what I am doing wrong or how to get that to work.
A subquery such as select sql from sqlite_master should be enclosed in brackets.
So you'd want
update user set last_browser= 'mozilla' + (select sql from sqlite_master''), last_time= '13-04-2019' where id = '14';
Although I don't think that will achieve what you want, which isn't clear. A simple test results in :-
You may want a concatenation of the strings, so instead of + use ||. e.g.
update user set last_browser= 'mozilla' || (select sql from sqlite_master''), last_time= '13-04-2019' where id = '14';
In which case you'd get something like :-
Thanks for everyone's input, I've worked this out.
The sql query was set up like this:
update users set last_browser= '$user-agent', last_time= '$current_date' where id = '$id_of_user'
edited user-agent with burp suite to be:
Mozilla', last_browser=(select sql from sqlite_master where type='table' limit 0,1), last_time='13-04-2019
Iterated with that found all tables and columns and flags. Rather time consuming but could not find a way to optimise.
I am new to robotframework and I am trying to get the hang of the keywords of DatabaseLibrary. I am getting error at 3 of such keywords.
1) I am using rowcount keywords as below-
${rowCount} Row Count <sql query>
And I always get ${rowCount}=0 irrespective of the number of rows in my table.
2) I am using Delete All Rows From Table as below-
Delete All Rows From Table <Table_Name>
And I get ORA-00911: invalid character but if use the same table with other keywords like Query ,it works fine.
3) I am using Table Must Exist as below-
Table Must Exist <Table_Name>
And I get ORA-00942: table or view does not exist but this table is very much there.
Please help me find what am I doing wrong.
Thanks in Advance!!!
I could be wrong but I believe a colleague told me there were issues, at the very least with the Row Count keyword.
However, for all three options there are easy solutions, which you've even hinted at in your question by using Query or Execute SQL Script
1)
${result}= Query Select count(id) from table
${rc} = ${result[0][0]} #Play with this as I forget exact syntax
2) Put your delete script in a test scripts folder with your tests and call it using Execute SQL script. You could also use Query to perform a select query before and after to confirm expected states.
3) Again perform a query against the table you're expecting to be there, a simple row count on id would do for this purpose. You could set a variable based on the result and use this again later if required.
I had similar issues.
I use cx_Oracle.
With the Table Must Exist keyword my problem was the same.
I dont really understand why, but first I have to use Encode String to Bytes keyword.
And I need to use a DatabaseLibrary 0.8 at least, because earlier versions didnt have solution for cx_Oracle. These solved this issue for me.
But with Delete all rows from table I still have problems.
Because this keyword puts a ; at the end of the line and it passes on that line to execute query if I understand weel, so it still causes an ORA-00911 error for me.
With Execute Sql String and the command DELETE FROM tablename you can have the same results, but it will work this way.
I hope it helps a little
I am getting this error while saving my data into the table. I have already created a 'product_Design' table in my database. I am using Sql Server 2008. Everything is working fine on local host but not on the server. I also tried to insert data in different tables and its working but I am just not able to insert data in this(product_Design) table ? I really need help regarding this thing.
here is my sql query
insert into z3ctjholo.dbo.product_Design values(#prodID, #productName, #designName, #designPath, #finalDesign, #front, #cont, #divHeight, GETDATE(), 0, 1)
I also tried this query
insert into product_Design values(#prodID, #productName, #designName, #designPath, #finalDesign, #front, #cont, #divHeight, GETDATE(), 0, 1)
Both the queries are generating error. Please help me out.
Thanks..
So finally i found what is the problem. if you ever face such kind of problem then execute this command in sql server and see whether your table is connected to any schema apart from dbo. Use this statement to check whether the table is connected to any other schema.
use yourDatabaseName
Then
SELECT * FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLES
after that if you find that your table is connected with other schema apart from dbo then use your any statement like this
select * from schemaName.tableName
(eg. my schema name is z3ctjholo and my table name is product_Design)
so my statement would be like this
select * from z3ctjholo.product_Design
what i was doing wrong, i was using two schema names (z3ctjholo.dbo.product_Design).
I hope it will help someone..
Thanks...
There are two reasons, I can find so far.
1. Either the connection settings in web.config is incorrect.
2. your database is case sensitive collation and so check the name with case. May be you have created the table with name Product_Design and trying to insert in product_Design, in this case also, the command may not work.
Please check both the points.
I have a question on creating running totals in MS Access 2010 similar to the one here:
Access 2010 - query showing running total for multiple records, dropping old record and adding new record on each line
However when I input the equivalent code from that thread I get an error saying that the database cannot be found (Access seems to think the table I have specified is the database name)
Here is the code from the original thread:-
SELECT hbep1.EmployeeID, hbep1.PayPeriodID,
(
SELECT Sum(hbep2.HoursUsed)
FROM Hours_by_Empl_PP hbep2
WHERE hbep2.EmployeeID=hbep1.EmployeeID
AND (hbep2.PayPeriodID Between hbep1.[PayPeriodID]-3
And hbep1.[PayPeriodID])
) AS Sum_of_Hours_last_4_PPs
FROM Hours_by_Empl_PP hbep1;
Here is the code I inputted into my query:-
SELECT
V4_Try.ID_NIS_INV_HDR,
V4_Try.ID_ITM,
V4_Try.RunTot3,
V4_Try.BomVsActQty,
DMin("RunTot3","V4_Try","[ID_Itm]=" & [ID_ITM]) AS IDItmMin,
DMax("RunTot3","V4_Try","[ID_Itm]=" & [ID_ITM]) AS IDItmMax,
(
SELECT Sum([V4_Try].[BomVsActQty])
FROM [V4_Try].[BomVsActQty]
WHERE [V4_Try].[ID_ITM]=[V4_Try].[ID_ITM]
AND (IDItmMax < IDItmMin)
) AS RunTot6
FROM V4_Try
ORDER BY V4_Try.ID_ITM, V4_Try.RunTot3;
One thing I notice is that the main query uses DMax() and DMin() to create some aliased columns
...
DMin("RunTot3","V4_Try","[ID_Itm]=" & [ID_ITM]) AS IDItmMin,
DMax("RunTot3","V4_Try","[ID_Itm]=" & [ID_ITM]) AS IDItmMax,
...
and then the subquery tries to use those aliases in its WHERE clause
(
SELECT ...
WHERE...
AND (IDItmMax < IDItmMin)
) AS RunTot6
I'm pretty sure that the subquery will have no knowledge of the column aliases in the "parent" query, so they may be the items that are unrecognized.
Start by running this query:
SELECT * FROM V4_Try;
Then develop for complexity. Build the nested query before anything else. When you know that runs, try adding your aliases, then the DMax() function, and so on. Isolate the point at which you have an error popping up.
This is the process to fix a query.
Oh, and please specify the precise error that is raised by Access. Also, if this is being run from VBA, please let us know because that affects your trouble-shooting.
