ORA-00000 to ORA-00899
-
Cause: An operation has completed normally, having met no exceptions.
-
Action: No action required.
-
Cause: An UPDATE or INSERT statement attempted to insert a duplicate key.
-
Action: Either remove the unique restriction or do not insert the key.
-
Cause: The current session was requested to set a trace event by another session.
-
Action: This is used internally; no action is required.
-
Cause: All session state objects are in use.
-
Action: Increase the value of the SESSIONS initialization parameter.
-
Cause: All licenses are in use.
-
Action: Increase the value of the LICENSE MAX SESSIONS initialization parameter.
-
Cause: All process state objects are in use.
-
Action: Increase the value of the PROCESSES initialization parameter.
-
Cause: The user session is currently used by others.
-
Action: Do not switch to a session attached to some other process.
-
Cause: Either the session specified does not exist or the caller does not have the privilege to access it.
-
Action: Specify a valid session ID that you have privilege to access, that is either you own it or you have the CHANGE_USER privilege.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to detach the current session when it contains references to process private memory.
-
Action: A session may contain references to process memory (PGA) if it has an open network connection, a very large context area, or operating system privileges. To allow the detach, it may be necessary to close the session's database links and/or cursors. Detaching a session with operating system privileges is always disallowed.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to log in more than once from different processes for Oracle started in single-process mode.
-
Action: Log off from the other process.
-
Cause: An application failed because Oracle ran out of memory.
-
Action: Restart Oracle with a larger SGA heap.
-
Cause: The session ID string specified in the ALTER SYSTEM KILL SESSION command was invalid, or no string was specified.
-
Action: Retry the command with a valid session ID.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to use ALTER SYSTEM KILL SESSION to kill the current session.
-
Action: If it is necessary to kill the current session, do so from another session.
-
Cause: A privileged user killed the session and it is no longer logged in to the database.
-
Action: Contact the database administrator. The administrator may be attempting to perform an operation that requires users to be logged out. When the database administrator announces that the database is available, log in and resume work.
-
Cause: The session ID specified in an ALTER SYSTEM KILL SESSION command was not a user session. For example, the session may be recursively started.
-
Action: Retry the command with a valid session ID.
-
Cause: The user session ID no longer exists, probably because the session was logged out.
-
Action: Use a valid session ID.
-
Cause: The session specified in an ALTER SYSTEM KILL SESSION command cannot be killed immediately because the session is involved in a non-interruptible operation (for example, rolling back a transaction or being blocked by a network operation). The session has been marked to be killed as soon as possible after the current operation is done.
-
Action: No action is required for the session to be killed, but further executions of the ALTER SYSTEM KILL SESSION command on this session may cause the session to be killed sooner.
-
Cause: The session migration password specified in a session creation call was invalid (probably too long).
-
Action: Retry with a valid password (less than 30 characters).
-
Cause: An attempt was made to detach or clone the current session and it has an empty migration password. This is not allowed.
-
Action: Create the session with a non-empty migration password.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to issue a commit or rollback from a PL/SQL object (procedure, function, package) in a session that has this disabled by a ALTER SESSION DISABLE COMMIT IN PROCEDURE statement.
-
Action: Enable commits from PL/SQL in this session, or do not attempt to use commit or rollback in PL/SQL when they are disabled in the current session.
-
Cause: Specified values for LICENSE_MAX_USERS is less than the current number of users.
-
Action: Check the license limit and drop extra users or purchase more licenses.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to go more than the specified number of recursive SQL levels.
-
Action: Remove the recursive SQL, possibly a recursive trigger.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to switch to a session in a different server group. This is not allowed.
-
Action: Make sure the server switches to a session that belongs to its server group.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to create a non-migratable session in a server group that is owned by a different user.
-
Action: A server group is owned by the first user who logs into a server in the server group in non-migratable mode. All subsequent non-migratable mode logins must be made by the user who owns the server group. To have a different user log in non-migratable mode, the ownership of the server group will have to be changed. This can be done by logging off all current sessions and detaching from all existing servers in the server group and then having the new user login to become the new owner.
-
Cause: Could not obtain the operating system resources necessary to cover an Oracle enqueue. This is normally the result of an operating system user quota that is too low.
-
Action: Look up the operating system error in your system documentation and perform the needed action.
-
Cause: This message is usually caused by an instance that has terminated abnormally.
-
Action: Restart any non-recovered instances.
-
Cause: Ran out of enqueue resources.
-
Action: Increase the value of the ENQUEUE_RESOURCES initialization parameter.
-
Cause: Ran out of enqueue state objects.
-
Action: Increase the value of the ENQUEUES initialization parameter.
-
Cause: The NOWAIT keyword forced a return to the command prompt because a resource was unavailable for a LOCK TABLE or SELECT FOR UPDATE command.
-
Action: Try the command after a few minutes or enter the command without the NOWAIT keyword.
-
Cause: Ran out of DML lock state objects.
-
Action: Increase the value of the DML_LOCKS initialization parameter and restart Oracle.
-
Cause: The attempted lock is incompatible with the DDL lock already held on the object. This happens if you attempt to drop a table that has parse locks.
-
Action: Before attempting to drop a table, check that it has no parse locks. Wait a few minutes before retrying the operation.
-
Cause: The number of temporary tables equals or exceeds the number of temporary table locks. Temporary tables are often created by large sorts.
-
Action: Increase the value of the TEMPORARY_TABLE_LOCKS initialization parameter and restart Oracle.
-
Cause: The value of the DB_BLOCK_SIZE initialization parameter used to start this database does not match the value used when that database was created. Potential reasons for this mismatch are:
-
Action: For one of the above causes, either:
-
Cause: The value of the DB_FILES initialization parameter was exceeded.
-
Action: Increase the value of the DB_FILES parameter and restart Oracle.
-
Cause: Your session and another session are waiting for a resource locked by the other. This condition is known as a deadlock. To resolve the deadlock, one or more statements were rolled back for the other session to continue work.
-
Action: Either:
-
Cause: The shared instance being started is using DML locks, and the running instances are not, or vice-versa.
-
Action: Either:
-
Cause: The instance was started with the value of DML_LOCKS set to zero, and the statement being executed needs a full-table lock (S, X, or SSX).
-
Action: Restart the instance with DML_LOCKS not equal to zero, and re-execute the statement.
-
Cause: The value of the LOG_FILES initialization parameter was exceeded.
-
Action: Increase the value of the LOG_FILES initialization parameter and restart Oracle. The value of the parameter needs to be as large as the highest number of log files that currently exist rather than just the count of logs that exist.
-
Cause: An initialization parameter was set to a value that required allocating more contiguous space than can be allocated on this operating system.
-
Action: Reduce the value of the initialization parameter.
-
Cause: The FIXED_DATE string was not in date format yyyy-mm-dd:hh24:mi:ss.
-
Action: Make sure the initialization parameter is in the correct date format.
-
Cause: The maximum number of log files supported by this instance is not the same as for the other instances. All instances must be able to open all the files any instance can open.
-
Action: Change the value of the LOG_FILES initialization parameter to be compatible.
-
Cause: The value for the initialization parameter is invalid.
-
Action: Choose a value as indicated by the message.
-
Cause: The value for the initialization parameter is invalid.
-
Action: Choose a value as indicated by the message.
-
Cause: A command was issued that tried to lock the table indicated in the message. Examples of commands that can lock tables are: LOCK TABLE, ALTER TABLE... ADD (...), and so on.
-
Action: Use the ALTER TABLE... ENABLE TABLE LOCK command, and retry the command.
-
Cause: An invalid debugger command was specified.
-
Action: Type HELP to see the list of available commands.
-
Cause: An invalid process number was specified.
-
Action: Specify a valid process number.
-
Cause: An invalid process was specified.
-
Action: Specify a valid process.
-
Cause: An incorrect number of arguments was specified.
-
Action: Specify the correct number of arguments. Type HELP to see the list of commands and their syntax.
-
Cause: No debug process has been specified.
-
Action: Specify a valid process.
-
Cause: The specified process was not logged on to the current instance.
-
Action: Specify a valid process.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to invoke a dump that does not exist.
-
Action: Type DUMPLIST to see the list of available dumps.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to invoke an invalid dump.
-
Action: Try another dump.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to dump a variable by name on a system that does not support this feature.
-
Action: Try the PEEK command.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to dump a variable that does not exist.
-
Action: Use a valid variable name.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to dump an invalid global area.
-
Action: Use level 1 for the PGA, 2 for the SGA, and 3 for the UGA. Use extra + level to dump global area level as well as extra bytes for every pointer; extra must be a multiple of 4.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to read/write an invalid memory address range.
-
Action: Try another address or length.
-
Cause: An invalid length was specified for the POKE command.
-
Action: Use a valid length (either 1, 2, 4, or possibly 8).
-
Cause: Even though there may be SGA corruptions, the SGA was mapped.
-
Action: Use the DUMPSGA command to dump the SGA.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to dump an invalid global area.
-
Action: Specify either PGA, SGA, or UGA.
-
Cause: An invalid attempt was made to dump the current call heap.
-
Action: Wait until the process starts a call.
-
Cause: An invalid attempt was made to dump the user call heap.
-
Action: Wait until the process starts a call.
-
Cause: Cluster database command issued for non cluster database ORADEBUG command.
-
Action: Issue the command without the cluster database syntax.
-
Cause: A debug command was issued on a shared server.
-
Action: Reissue the command using a dedicated server.
-
Cause: An invalid instance number was specified in a cluster database ORADEBUG command.
-
Action: Reissue the command with valid instance numbers.
-
Cause: Could not allocate memory needed to execute cluster database oradebug.
-
Action: Reissue the command on each instance with single-instance ORADEBUG.
-
Cause: The value of LARGE_POOL_SIZE is below the minimum size.
-
Action: Increase the value of LARGE_POOL_SIZE past the minimum size.
-
Cause: The value of LARGE_POOL_SIZE is less than the value of LARGE_POOL_MIN_ALLOC.
-
Action: Increase the value of LARGE_POOL_SIZE past the value of LARGE_POOL_MIN_ALLOC.
-
Cause: The parameter value is not in a valid range.
-
Action: Modify the parameter value to be within the specified range.
-
Cause: The parameter value is not an integer.
-
Action: Modify the parameter value to be an integer.
-
Cause: The value for the initialization parameter is invalid.
-
Action: Choose a value as indicated by the message.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to use an Oracle SQL feature that is not compliant with the SQL92 standard.
-
Action: Do not use the feature or use the ALTER SESSION SET FLAGGER command to set the appropriate level of SQL92 compliance.
-
Cause: The resource needed by the transaction was busy. The PDML transaction could not acquire the resource within the specified amount of time. This indicates potential deadlock involving this PDML transaction and other transactions currently running in the system.
-
Action: Increase the value of the PARALLEL_TRANSACTION_RESOURCE_TIMEOUT parameter; then retry the operation.
-
Cause: An application made a reference to unknown or inaccessible data.
-
Action: Handle this condition within the application or make appropriate modifications to the application code.
-
Cause: The syntax for the
DISPATCHERS
initialization parameter is incorrect. -
Action: Enter the
DISPATCHERS
initialization parameter into the initialization parameter file with the correct syntax and then shut down and restart the instance. -
Cause: The network specified in
DISPATCHERS
does not have the functionality required by the dispatchers. -
Action: Refer to your Oracle operating system-specific documentation for network protocols supported by the dispatchers.
-
Cause: The network specified in the Net8 connect string is reserved for use by the dispatchers.
-
Action: Specify other network protocols in the connection string.
-
Cause: All available public servers are servicing requests that require resources locked by a client which is unable to get a public server to release the resources.
-
Action: Increase the limit for the system parameter
MAX_SHARED_SERVERS
as the system will automatically start new servers to break the deadlock until the number of servers reaches the value specified inMAX_SHARED_SERVERS
. -
Cause: An attempt was made to alter the dispatcher's configuration for a network protocol that was not specified in the initialization parameter file.
-
Action: Do one of the following:
-
Cause: An attempt was made to start or shut down an instance while connected to a shared server via a dispatcher.
-
Action: Reconnect as user INTERNAL without going through the dispatcher. For most cases, this can be done by connect to INTERNAL without specifying a network connect string.
-
Cause: Most likely due to the fact that the network listener process has not been started.
-
Action: Check for the following:
-
Cause: The network protocol used by the dispatcher does not support asynchronous operations.
-
Action: Contact Oracle Support Services.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to start more servers than the maximum number specified by the system parameter
MAX_SHARED_SERVERS
. -
Action: Increase the value of the
MAX_SHARED_SERVERS
initialization parameter as needed or re-issue theALTER SYSTEM SET SHARED_SERVERS
statement with an appropriate number of servers. -
Cause: An attempt was made to start more dispatchers than the maximum number specified by the system parameter
MAX_DISPATCHERS
. -
Action: Increase the value of the
MAX_DISPATCHERS
initialization parameter as needed. -
Cause: A protocol name specified in the
DISPATCHERS
initialization parameter is too long. -
Action: Use a valid protocol name for the
DISPATCHERS
value. -
Cause: No value was specified for the
SERVICE_NAMES
initialization parameter, nor for theDB_NAME
parameter. -
Action: Add an
SERVICE_NAMES
orDB_NAME
definition to the initialization parameter file. By default,SERVICE_NAMES
is the value ofDB_NAME
unlessSERVICE_NAMES
is explicitly specified. -
Cause: A connection request was refused by a dispatcher because the dispatcher cannot support any more connections.
-
Action: Connect to a different dispatcher or use a dedicated server.
-
Cause: The service name specified in the
SERVICE_NAMES
initialization parameter is too long. -
Action: Use a shorter name for the
SERVICE_NAMES
value (less than or equal to 255 characters). -
Cause: The specified value of the
SHARED_SERVERS
initialization parameter is incorrect. -
Action:
SHARED_SERVERS
must be greater than or equal to 0 and less than or equal to the value ofMAX_SHARED_SERVERS
. -
Cause: The value of the
DISPATCHERS
parameter is incorrect. -
Action: The sum of all
DISPATCHERS
values must be greater than or equal to 0 and less than or equal to the value ofMAX_DISPATCHERS
. -
Cause: The syntax for the specified parameter is incorrect.
-
Action: Refer to the Oracle9i Database Reference for the correct syntax.
-
Cause: Either the dispatching mechanism was not enabled or the Oracle executable image was not installed with the dispatching mechanism.
-
Action: Refer to the Oracle9i Database Administrator's Guide and your operating system-specific documentation for procedures for starting and configuring the dispatcher process.
-
Cause: A definition for
SHARED_SERVERS
was specified in the initialization parameter file, but no definition forDISPATCHERS
was specified. Without a value forDISPATCHERS
, shared servers will never be used. -
Action: Add a definition for
DISPATCHERS
in the initialization parameter file (or remove the definition forSHARED_SERVERS
, if shared servers are not being used). -
Cause: Oracle could not initialize Net8.
-
Action: See accompanying messages.
-
Cause: Too many idle servers were waiting on the common queue.
-
Action: This error is used internally, no action is required.
-
Cause: A definition for
DISPATCHERS
was specified in the initialization parameter file, butMAX_SHARED_SERVERS
was specified as zero. -
Action: Specify
MAX_SHARED_SERVERS
to be greater than zero. -
Cause: The PRESENTATION in the CONNECT_DATA of the TNS address DESCRIPTION is not correct or is not supported.
-
Action: Correct the PRESENTATION specified in the TNS address.
-
Cause: The DUPLICITY in the CONNECT_DATA of the TNS address DESCRIPTION is not correct or is not supported.
-
Action: Correct the DUPLICITY specified in the TNS address.
-
Cause: There is currently no dispatcher running with the specified name.
-
Action: Retry with a name of the form "D###" denoting an existing dispatcher process.
-
Cause: Wrong syntax for ALTER SYSTEM SHUTDOWN.
-
Action: Use correct syntax:
ALTER SYSTEM SHUTDOWN [ IMMEDIATE ] 'dispatcher name'
-
Cause: An error was encountered while validating the listener address.
-
Action: Resolve the error or contact Oracle Support Services.
-
Cause: The listener address specification is not valid.
-
Action: Make sure that all fields in the listener address (protocol, port, host, key, ...) are correct.
-
Cause: The specified protocol does not support async notification.
-
Action: Refer to the manual for information on supported network protocols.
-
Cause: Listener address has syntax error or cannot be resolved.
-
Action: If a network name is specified, check that it corresponds to an entry in TNSNAMES.ORA or other address repository as configured for your system. Make sure that the entry is syntactically correct.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to start a new transaction with an ID already in use by an existing transaction.
-
Action: Check your application.
-
Cause: The specified transaction ID does not correspond to an existing valid transaction.
-
Action: Check your application.
-
Cause: The current session is not the same as the session that was passed into a UPIXADO() call.
-
Action: Check your application.
-
Cause: The XA library could not access thread-specific pointers.
-
Action: Contact Oracle Support Services.
-
Cause: The transaction monitor returned TMJOIN on an AX_REG call but the transaction was locally suspended.
-
Action: Contact the transaction monitor customer support.
-
Cause: The application tried to perform some work on either an Oracle 7.3 server or an Oracle8 server with local transactions disabled while outside of a global transaction.
-
Action: Check if the application is connected to an Oracle 7.3 server. The Transaction monitor must not return a NULL XID on an AX_REG call when the resource manager is Oracle 7.3. If the application is connected to an Oracle8 server, either set nolocal=f in the xa_open string or start a global transaction prior to attempting the work.
-
Cause: An external global transaction ID with a too large length field was passed in.
-
Action: Report the problem to your external transaction coordinator vendor.
-
Cause: An external transaction branch ID with a length either too large or 0 was passed in.
-
Action: Report the problem to your external transaction coordinator vendor.
-
Cause: An external database name with too large a length field was passed in.
-
Action: Report the problem to your external transaction coordinator vendor.
-
Cause: An internal database name with a too large length field was passed in.
-
Action: Report the problem to your external transaction coordinator vendor.
-
Cause: A request was made by the application to start a distributed autonomous transaction when the application was in a migratable distributed transaction.
-
Action: Roll back or commit the current distributed transaction first.
-
Cause: A request was made by the application to start a migratable distributed autonomous transaction with remote operation.
-
Cause: It was not possible to create the control file.
-
Action: Check that there is sufficient disk space and no conflicts in file names and try to create the control file again.
-
Cause: The control file was created by incompatible software.
-
Action: Either restart with a compatible software release or use CREATE CONTROLFILE to create a new control file that is compatible with this release.
-
Cause: This message reports the name file involved in other messages.
-
Action: See associated error messages for a description of the problem.
-
Cause: The mount ID in the control file is not the same as the mount ID in the control file used by the first instance to mount this database. The control files are for the same database but they are not the same files. Most likely one instance is using a backup control file.
-
Action: Check that the correct control files were specified.
-
Cause: A disk I/O failure was detected on reading the control file.
-
Action: Check that the disk is online. If it is not, bring it online and shut down and restart Oracle. If it is online, then look for operating system reasons for Oracle's inability to read the disk or control file. See the Oracle9i Database Administrator's Guide for information on recovering from the loss of a control file. See also your operating system-specific Oracle documentation.
-
Cause: The system could not find a control file of the specified name and size.
-
Action: One of the following:
- Check that the proper control file name is referenced in the CONTROL_FILES initialization parameter in the initialization parameter file and try again.
- When using mirrored control files, that is, more than one control file is referenced in the initialization parameter file, remove the control file name listed in the message from the initialization parameter file and restart the instance. If the message does not recur, remove the problem control file from the initialization parameter file and create another copy of the control file with a new file name in the initialization parameter file.
-
Cause: A disk I/O failure was detected on writing to the control file.
-
Action: Check that the disk is online. If it is not, bring it online and shut down and restart Oracle. If it is online, then look for operating system reasons for Oracle's inability to write to the disk or control file. See the Oracle9i Database Administrator's Guide for information on recovering from the loss of a control file. See also your operating system-specific Oracle documentation.
-
Cause: The database ID in the control file is not the same as the database ID in the control file used by the first instance to mount this database. Most likely one of the mounts used the wrong control file or there are two databases with the same name.
-
Action: Check that the control file is for the correct database and is not an old version. When using multiplexed control files, that is, more than one control file is referenced in the initialization parameter file, remove the control file name listed in the message from the initialization parameter file and restart the instance. If the message does not recur, remove the problem control file from the initialization parameter file and create another copy of the control file using a new file name in the initialization parameter file.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to use more control files than Oracle supports.
-
Action: Shut down Oracle. Reduce the number of control files specified in the CONTROL_FILES parameter in the initialization parameter file, and restart Oracle. Delete unused files.
-
Cause: The block size in the control file header does not match the size specified in the DB_BLOCK_SIZE parameter.
-
Action: Reduce the block size to the amount specified in the message and try again.
-
Cause: Cannot open the control file.
-
Action: Check to make sure the control file exists and is not locked by some other program.
-
Cause: A control file was specified that belongs to another database.
-
Action: Find and install the correct control file.
-
Cause: The block size specified was too small. Space for the system overhead is required.
-
Action: Specify a larger block size and retry the operation.
-
Cause: To reuse a control file, it must be the same size as the one previously used.
-
Action: Either do not specify REUSE, or specify a matching combination of MAXDATAFILES, MAXLOGFILES, MAXLOGMEMBERS, MAXLOGHISTORY, and MAXINSTANCES clauses in the CREATE DATABASE or CREATE CONTROLFILE statement.
-
Cause: An inconsistent set of control files, datafiles, and redo log files was used.
-
Action: Use a consistent set of control files, datafiles, and redo log files. That is, all the files must be for the same database and from the same time period.
-
Cause: No control file is specified or the control file specified does not exist.
-
Action: Specify at least one valid control file and retry the operation.
-
Cause: Control files created by release 8.0.2 were missing some records. These records are automatically added by resizing the control file when attempting to run a later release. The resize failed.
-
Action: Look in the alert log for the reason that the resize failed. If it can be fixed by giving the control file more space, then do that. Otherwise, use the CREATE CONTROLFILE script dumped to the trace file to create a new control file.
-
Cause: Controlfiles created by release 9.0.1 were missing some records. These records are automatically added by resizing the controlfile when attempting to run a later release. The resize failed.
-
Action: Look in the alert log for the reason the resize failed. If it can be fixed by giving the controlfile more space, then do that. Otherwise, use the
CREATE CONTROLFILE
script dumpped to the trace file to create a new controlfile. -
Cause: The block size as stored in the control file header is different from the value of the initialization parameter DB_BLOCK_SIZE. This might be due to an incorrect setting of DB_BLOCK_SIZE, or else might indicate that the control file has either been corrupted or belongs to a different database.
-
Action: Restore a good copy of the control file.
-
Cause: An invocation of CREATE DATABASE, CREATE CONTROLFILE, cfileCalcSizeList, or cfileCalcSizeArray was executed specifying a combination of parameters that would require the control file size in blocks to exceed the maximum allowable value.
-
Action: In the case of CREATE DATABASE or CREATE CONTROLFILE, use a different combination of MAXDATAFILES, MAXLOGFILES, MAXLOGMEMBERS, MAXLOGHISTORY, and MAXINSTANCES clauses. In the case of cfileCalcSizeList() or cfileCalcSizeArray(), use a different combination of record type counts.
-
Cause: The specified control file has a different mount ID than the other control files that are being mounted. This means that the first instance to mount the database did not use this control file.
-
Action: Find and install the correct control file.
-
Cause: An error occurred when writing to one or more of the control files.
-
Action: See accompanying messages.
-
Cause: The file name supplied as a parameter to the ALTER DATABASE BACKUP CONTROLFILE command or to cfileSetSnapshotName matches the name of the specified currently mounted control file.
-
Action: Retry the operation with a different file name.
-
Cause: An Oracle7 to Oracle8 convert file contains invalid data or was created with an different version of the migration utility. This error can also be caused by incorrect ORACLE_HOME environment variable when the ALTER DATABASE CONVERT command is issued.
-
Action: Use a correct version of the convert file or regenerate it with the migration utility. Make sure that the migration utility is the same version as the Oracle8 RDBMS executable and that the ORACLE_HOME environment variable is properly set.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to expand or shrink the control file by calling cfileResizeSection using an invalid value for the RECORD_TYPE parameter.
-
Action: Use a value for the RECORD_TYPE parameter that specifies a valid record type other than type 0 (valid range is 1 to 16).
-
Cause: The expected size of the control file as stored in its header was different than the actual operating system file size. This usually indicates that the control file was corrupted.
-
Action: Restore a good copy of the control file.
-
Cause: The attempted operation could not be executed at this time because this process had an alternate control file open for fixed table access.
-
Action: Retry the operation after calling cfileUseCurrent.
-
Cause: A block header corruption or checksum error was detected on reading the control file.
-
Action: Use the CREATE CONTROLFILE or RECOVER DATABASE USING BACKUP CONTROLFILE command.
-
Cause: The specified file name, which was supplied as a parameter to cfileSetSnapshotName or cfileUseCopy, exceeds the maximum file name length for this operating system.
-
Action: Retry the operation with a shorter file name.
-
Cause: The attempted operation cannot be executed at this time because this process currently holds the snapshot control file enqueue.
-
Action: Retry the operation after calling cfileUseCurrent to release the snapshot control file enqueue.
-
Cause: The attempted operation cannot be executed at this time because another process currently holds the snapshot control file enqueue.
-
Action: Retry the operation after the concurrent operation that is holding the snapshot control file enqueue terminates.
-
Cause: During an invocation of cfileMakeAndUseSnapshot or cfileUseSnapshot, it was detected that no file name for the snapshot control file had previously been specified.
-
Action: Specify a name for the snapshot control file by calling cfileSetSnapshotName.
-
Cause: The snapshot control file was found to be non-existent, corrupt, or unreadable during an invocation of cfileUseSnapshot.
-
Action: Call cfileMakeAndUseSnapshot again (or for the first time).
-
Cause: The specified copy control file was found to be corrupt or unreadable during an invocation of cfileUseCopy.
-
Action: Before retrying cfileUseCopy, use the ALTER DATABASE BACKUP CONTROLFILE command and specify the same file name that was specified for cfileUseCopy.
-
Cause: A snapshot or copy control file of the specified name could not be found or opened during an invocation of cfileUseSnapshot, cfileMakeAndUseSnapshot, or cfileUseCopy.
-
Action: Re-create the snapshot or copy control file using cfileMakeAndUseSnapshot or ALTER DATABASE BACKUP CONTROLFILE, respectively.
-
Cause: Concurrent update activity on a control file caused a query on a control file fixed table to read inconsistent information.
-
Action: Retry the operation.
-
Cause: Attempting to invoke cfileSetSnapshotName, cfileMakeAndUseSnapshot, or cfileUseSnapshot when the currently mounted control file is a backup control file.
-
Action: Mount a current control file and retry the operation.
-
Cause: An attempt to invoke cfileMakeAndUseSnapshot with a currently mounted control file that was newly created with CREATE CONTROLFILE was made.
-
Action: Mount a current control file and retry the operation.
-
Cause: The file name supplied as a parameter to the ALTER DATABASE BACKUP CONTROLFILE command or to cfileSetSnapshotName matches the name of a file that is currently part of the database.
-
Action: Retry the operation with a different file name.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to stop automatic archiving, but the archiver process was not running.
-
Action: No action is required.
-
Cause: The destination specified by the LOG_ARCHIVE_DUPLEX_DEST parameter is the same as the destination specified by an ALTER SYSTEM ARCHIVE LOG START TO command.
-
Action: Specify a different destination for parameter LOG_ARCHIVE_DUPLEX_DEST, or specify a different destination with the ALTER SYSTEM command.
-
Cause: A log must be used for redo generation before it can be archived. The specified redo log was not been used since it was introduced to the database. However, it is possible that the instance died during a log switch and the log was empty.
-
Action: Empty logs do not need to be archived. Do not attempt to archive the redo log file.
-
Cause: The destination specified by an ALTER SYSTEM ARCHIVE LOG START TO command was too long.
-
Action: Retry the ALTER SYSTEM command using a string shorter than the limit specified in the error message.
-
Cause: The specified archive log location is invalid in the archive command or the LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST initialization parameter.
-
Action: Check the archive string used to make sure it refers to a valid online device.
-
Cause: An error occurred during archiving.
-
Action: Check the accompanying message stack for more detailed information. If the online log is corrupted, then the log can be cleared using the UNARCHIVED option. This will make any existing backups useless for recovery to any time after the log was created, but will allow the database to generate redo.
-
Cause: The destination specified by an ALTER SYSTEM ARCHIVE LOG START TO command could not be translated.
-
Action: Check the accompanying message stack for more detailed information. Then, retry the ALTER SYSTEM command using a different string.
-
Cause: The archiver process received an error while trying to archive a redo log. If the problem is not resolved soon, the database will stop executing transactions. The most likely cause of this message is the destination device is out of space to store the redo log file.
-
Action: Check the archiver trace file for a detailed description of the problem. Also, verify that the device specified in the initialization parameter ARCHIVE_LOG_DEST is set up properly for archiving.
-
Cause: The database is in NOARCHIVELOG mode and a command to manually archive a log did not specify the log explicitly by sequence number, group number or file name.
-
Action: Specify the log by file name, by group number or by thread and sequence number.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to archive the current log of an open thread. This is not allowed because the redo log file may still be in use for the generation of redo entries.
-
Action: Force a log switch in the instance where the thread is open. If no instances are open, open the database so that instance recovery can recover the thread.
-
Cause: The log sequence number supplied in the ARCHIVE statement does not match any of the online logs for the thread. This can result from any of the following situations:
-
Action: Check the ARCHIVE statement, then specify a valid log sequence number. Specify a valid log sequence number.
-
Cause: The log is either being archived by another process or an administrative command is modifying the log. Operations that modify the log include clearing, adding a member, dropping a member, renaming a member, and dropping the log.
-
Action: Wait for the current operation to complete and try again.
-
Cause: The log cannot be cleared or manually archived because it is the current log of a closed thread, and it is not possible to switch logs so another log is current. All other logs for the thread need to be archived, or cleared, and cannot be reused.
-
Action: Archive another log in the same thread first, or complete the clearing. See attached errors for the reason the switch cannot be completed.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to manually archive the unarchived logs in this thread but no logs needed archiving.
-
Action: No action required.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to perform media recovery on files that do not need any type of recovery.
-
Action: Do not attempt to perform media recovery on the selected files. Check to see that the file names were entered properly. If not, retry the command with the proper file names.
-
Cause: The database either crashed or was shut down with the ABORT option. Media recovery cannot be enabled because the online logs may not be sufficient to recover the current datafiles.
-
Action: Open the database and then enter the SHUTDOWN command with the NORMAL or IMMEDIATE option.
-
Cause: During media recovery, the name of an archived redo log file was requested, but no name was entered.
-
Action: Mount the correct redo log file and enter its name when it is requested.
-
Cause: During media recovery, the name of an archived redo log file was entered, but no name was requested.
-
Action: Continue media recovery, but do not enter a new log name.
-
Cause: The given redo log file does not exist.
-
Action: Check the spelling and capitalization of the file name and retry the command.
-
Cause: The given redo log file is not part of the given thread.
-
Action: Check that the thread of the redo log file matches the thread on the command line. If not, use a redo log file from the appropriate thread. Retry the command after correcting the error.
-
Cause: An error was encountered when either creating or opening the destination file for archiving.
-
Action: Check that the archive destination is valid and that there is sufficient space on the destination device.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to archive the unarchived redo log files manually, but there are no files that need to be archived.
-
Action: No action is required.
-
Cause: An I/O error occurred while archiving a redo log file.
-
Action: Check that the output device is still available and correct any device errors that may have occurred. Also, make certain that sufficient space for archiving is available on the output device.
-
Cause: A media recovery session encountered a table that was loaded by the direct loader without logging any redo information. Some or all of the blocks in this table are now marked as corrupt.
-
Action: The table must be dropped or truncated so that the corrupted blocks can be reused. If a more recent backup of the file is available, try to recover this file to eliminate this error.
-
Cause: An illegal option was specified for a recovery command.
-
Action: Correct the syntax and retry the command.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to start a second media recovery operation in the same session.
-
Action: Complete or cancel the first media recovery session or start another session to perform media recovery.
-
Cause: The CHANGE keyword was specified on the command line, but no change number was given.
-
Action: Retry the command using a valid change number after the CHANGE keyword.
-
Cause: Only CANCEL, CHANGE and TIME can be used with the UNTIL keyword.
-
Action: Correct the syntax.
-
Cause: The specified redo log file is no longer needed for the current recovery.
-
Action: No action is required. The archived redo log file may be removed from its current location to conserve disk space, if needed. However, the redo log file may still be required for another recovery session in the future.
-
Cause: The requested log is required to proceed with recovery.
-
Action: Supply the requested log with ALTER DATABASE RECOVER LOGFILE filename or cancel recovery with ALTER DATABASE RECOVER CANCEL.
-
Cause: This message helps to locate the redo log file with the specified change number requested by other messages.
-
Action: Use the information provided in this message to specify the required archived redo log files for other errors.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to use a dispatcher process for media recovery. Memory requirements disallow this recovery method.
-
Action: Connect to the instance via a dedicated server process to perform media recovery.
-
Cause: The given UPI call is no longer supported.
-
Action: Use the ALTER DATABASE RECOVER command for all recovery actions.
-
Cause: An error during recovery was determined to be fatal enough to end the current recovery session.
-
Action: More specific messages will accompany this message. Refer to the other messages for the appropriate action.
-
Cause: An error during recovery was determined to be minor enough to allow the current recovery session to continue.
-
Action: More specific messages will accompany this message. Refer to the other messages for the appropriate action.
-
Cause: UNTIL TIME was not followed by a string constant for the time.
-
Action: Enter the time enclosed in single quotation marks.
-
Cause: None of the members of a redo log file group are available, or the available members do not contain complete data.
-
Action: If a member is temporarily offline, attempt to make it available. Make sure that the correct file names are being used, especially if the redo log file is being accessed from a remote location.
-
Cause: The given change number does not appear in any of the online redo logs for the given thread.
-
Action: Check the statement to make certain a valid change number is given. Perhaps try to use the NEXT option for archiving logs.
-
Cause: During media recovery, a new log is not required but the continuation command is necessary to do a checkpoint and report errors.
-
Action: Type ALTER DATABASE RECOVER CONTINUE and recovery will resume.
-
Cause: This message reports the next redo log file name that is needed, according to the initialization parameters LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST and LOG_ARCHIVE_FORMAT. This message assumes that LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST and LOG_ARCHIVE_FORMAT are the same now as when the required redo log file was archived.
-
Action: Consider using this file name for the next log needed for recovery.
-
Cause: While attempting to archive to a redo log file, the server encountered an unexpected operating system error.
-
Action: Correct the operating system error given in the messages and retry the operation. See also your operating system-specific Oracle documentation.
-
Cause: A recovery command was specified incorrectly. The PARALLEL option must be followed by a numeric argument that specifies the degree of parallelism.
-
Action: Re-enter the command with a numeric argument specifying the degree of parallelism desired.
-
Cause: A parallel recovery was requested when the parallel recovery option is not installed.
-
Action: Delete the PARALLEL clause from the RECOVER command. Also, delete the RECOVERY_PARALLELISM parameter in the initialization file.
-
Cause: The redo log file and control file are out of sync because a non-current control file was specified when the instance was started.
-
Action: Retry the RECOVER command using the current control file, or retry the RECOVER command using the USING BACKUP CONTROLFILE clause.
-
Cause: An invalid format specifier was found in the LOG_ARCHIVE_FORMAT initialization parameter. The only characters permitted for string are s, S, t, and T.
-
Action: Correct the initialization file and restart the instance.
-
Cause: An invalid file number was specified.
-
Action: Specify a valid datafile or tempfile number and retry the operation.
-
Cause: The RECOVER DATAFILE LIST command specified more datafiles than are allowed by the DB_FILES initialization parameter. This error occurs when doing recovery with Recovery Manager, and the instance has been started with a DB_FILES parameter specifying fewer datafiles than Recovery Manager needs to recover to satisfy the user's RECOVER command.
-
Action: Restart the instance with a higher value for DB_FILES.
-
Cause: The RECOVER DATAFILE START command was issued, but no RECOVER DATAFILE LIST commands had been issued. This only happens when doing recovery with Recovery Manager, and is an internal error in Recovery Manager, because Recovery Manager should always issue RECOVER DATAFILE LIST before RECOVER DATAFILE START.
-
Action: Contact Oracle Support Services.
-
Cause: A nonzero integer value is required when the following keyword attributes are specified:
-
Action: Correct the syntax and retry the command.
-
Cause: The control file does not contain an entry for this file, so block media recovery cannot be done.
-
Action: Restore the data file and perform file-level media recovery.
-
Cause: The specified block size of the redo log is greater than the maximum block size for the operating system.
-
Action: Create the redo log on a device with a smaller block size.
-
Cause: The creation of the redo log file failed
-
Action: Check whether:
- There is enough storage space on the device
- The name of the file is valid
- The device is online
- An I/O error occurred
Also, it is possible REUSE was specified on the command line and a file of the incorrect size exists. Either do not specify REUSE or use a file of the correct size.
-
Cause: The maximum number of redo log files has been exceeded. There is a limit, set at database creation, on the number of redo log files (typically 16).
-
Action: Use the CREATE CONTROLFILE command with a larger value for MAXLOGFILES.
-
Cause: A redo log containing Parallel Redo has been detected. The current Oracle release cannot process this format of redo.
-
Action: Use a later release that supports Parallel Redo.
-
Cause: An instance tried to start by using a value of the initialization parameter INSTANCE_NUMBER that is already in use.
-
Action: Either:
-
Cause: The database ID in the redo log file does not match the database ID in the control file. This redo log file is not from the current database.
-
Action: Specify the correct redo log file, and then retry the operation.
-
Cause: Starting this instance would exceed the maximum number of instances allowed for this database. This message occurs only with STARTUP shared and multiple instances.
-
Action: You cannot start more than the lower of:
-
Cause: The initialization parameter INSTANCE_NUMBER specified a number that was out of range.
-
Action: Change the value of INSTANCE_NUMBER to a valid range and restart the instance. The minimum value is 1 and the maximum value is the lower of the operating system-specific maximum or the value of the MAXINSTANCES option specified in the CREATE DATABASE statement. See also your operating system-specific Oracle documentation.
-
Cause: The system cannot access a required archived redo log file.
-
Action: Check that the offline log exists, the storage device is online, and the archived file is in the correct location. Then attempt to continue recovery or restart the recovery session.
-
Cause: The system cannot access the archived redo log because it belongs to another database.
-
Action: Specify the correct redo log file and then retry the operation.
-
Cause: The archived log is out of sequence, probably because it is corrupted or the wrong redo log file name was specified during recovery.
-
Action: Specify the correct redo log file and then retry the operation.
-
Cause: An I/O error occurred when attempting to read the log file header from the specified archived redo log file.
-
Action: Other messages will accompany this message. See the associated messages for the appropriate action to take.
-
Cause: This message reports the file name for details of another message.
-
Action: Other messages will accompany this message. See the associated messages for the appropriate action to take.
-
Cause: The online log cannot be opened. The file may not be in the expected location.
-
Action: Specify the correct redo log file or make the log available, if necessary. Also, see the accompanying messages.
-
Cause: The online log is corrupted or is an old version.
-
Action: Find and install the correct version of the log or reset the logs. Refer to the Oracle9i Database Administrator's Guide for recovery procedures.
-
Cause: The online log is corrupted or is an old version.
-
Action: Find and install the correct version of the log or reset the logs. Refer to the Oracle9i Database Administrator's Guide for recovery procedures.
-
Cause: The online log is corrupted or is an old version.
-
Action: Find and install the correct version of the log or reset the logs. Refer to the Oracle9i Database Administrator's Guide for recovery procedures.
-
Cause: This is not an archived log file.
-
Action: Find the correct file and try again. Refer to the Oracle9i Database Administrator's Guide for recovery procedures.
-
Cause: The file size indicated in the control file did not match the file size contained in the log file.
-
Action: Restore the correct file or reset the logs. Refer to the Oracle9i Database Administrator's Guide for recovery procedures.
-
Cause: An online redo log has log reset data that is different from the log reset data in the control file. The log is probably an incorrectly restored backup.
-
Action: Restore the correct file or reset the logs. Refer to the Oracle9i Database Administrator's Guide for recovery procedures.
-
Cause: The file is not available.
-
Action: Restore the log file.
-
Cause: Cannot write to the log file.
-
Action: Restore access to the file.
-
Cause: An online log appears to be an incorrectly restored backup.
-
Action: Restore the correct file or reset the logs. Refer to the Oracle9i Database Administrator's Guide for recovery procedures.
-
Cause: An attempt to open the thread failed because it is necessary to switch redo generation to another online log, but all the other logs need to be archived before they can be used.
-
Action: Archive the logs for the thread and then retry the open.
-
Cause: The translated name for a log file is too long.
-
Action: Choose an untranslated name that yields a shorter translated name.
-
Cause: The archived log is corrupted or for another thread. Cannot use the log for applying the redo.
-
Action: Find the correct archived log.
-
Cause: The archived log supplied for recovery was generated after the log that is needed. Cannot yet use the log for applying redo.
-
Action: Find the correct archived log.
-
Cause: A log file has shrunk in size. This is likely to have been caused by a computer operator's mistake or an operating system error.
-
Action: Restore the log file from backup. If a backup is not available, drop this log and re-create it. If the database was shut down cleanly, no further action should be required; otherwise, incomplete recovery may be required.
-
Cause: The archived log supplied for recovery was generated before the log that is needed. Cannot use the log for applying redo.
-
Action: Find the correct archived log.
-
Cause: The archived log is not the correct log. An earlier log is needed.
-
Action: Restore the correct log file.
-
Cause: The archived log is not the correct log. A later log is needed.
-
Action: Restore the correct log file.
-
Cause: The log was written by an incompatible version of Oracle.
-
Action: Recover the database with the compatible software, shut it down cleanly, and then restart Oracle with the current software.
-
Cause: The log is smaller than the space allocated in it. May be the result of a SHUTDOWN ABORT while it was being written by the archiver.
-
Action: Get a complete version of this log and use it for recovery. There should either be an online version of it or a copy that was successfully archived.
-
Cause: An I/O error occurred while reading the log described in the accompanying error.
-
Action: Restore accessibility to file, or get another copy of the file.
-
Cause: This message reports the file name involved with other errors.
-
Action: See associated error messages.
-
Cause: This message reports the file name involved with other errors.
-
Action: See associated error messages.
-
Cause: The log file size as specified in the CREATE DATABASE statement is too small.
-
Action: Increase the log file size.
-
Cause: An attempt to add a log found neither an existing file nor a size for creating the file.
-
Action: Specify a size for the log file.
-
Cause: The control file change sequence number in the log file is greater than the number in the control file. This implies that the wrong control file is being used. Note that repeatedly causing this error can make it stop happening without correcting the real problem. Every attempt to open the database will advance the control file change sequence number until it is great enough.
-
Action: Use the current control file or do backup control file recovery to make the control file current. Be sure to follow all restrictions on doing a backup control file recovery.
-
Cause: The archived log is not the correct log. It is a copy of a log file that has never been used for redo generation, or was an online log being prepared to be the current log.
-
Action: Restore the correct log file.
-
Cause: An I/O error occurred on the named online log.
-
Action: Restore accessibility to the file or restore the file from backup.
-
Cause: The internal information in an online log file does not match the control file.
-
Action: Restore the correct file or reset the logs. Refer to the Oracle9i Database Administrator's Guide for recovery procedures.
-
Cause: Recovery was given a log that was created before the last ALTER DATABASE OPEN RESETLOGS command. There should be another log created since then that contains the correct redo.
-
Action: Supply the correct log file.
-
Cause: The maximum number of errors on this log member has been exceeded.
-
Action: Correct the underlying problem by referring to the other error messages found with this one.
-
Cause: An I/O failure occurred when attempting to re-create an online log as part of either an ALTER DATABASE OPEN RESETLOGS or ALTER DATABASE CLEAR LOGFILE command.
-
Action: Correct the file/device as indicated by accompanying errors.
-
Cause: An I/O error occurred while writing the log.
-
Action: Correct the cause of the error, and then restart the system. If the log is lost, apply media/incomplete recovery.
-
Cause: A log file member no longer is complete.
-
Action: Correct the underlying problem by referring to the other error messages found with this one.
-
Cause: During online recovery, the block size specified in the control file did not match the block size contained in the redo log file.
-
Action: Restore the correct redo file from a backup or reset the online redo log files.
-
Cause: A failure occurred during a critical portion of the log code during single process operation. This error does not occur during normal multi-process operation.
-
Action: SHUTDOWN ABORT and restart the database.
-
Cause: The operating system was unable to determine the block size for the given file name.
-
Action: Consult the accompanying error message, and correct the device or specify another file name.
-
Cause: The command cannot be done because the log has not been archived, and media recovery has been enabled.
-
Action: Archive the log or disable media recovery. If the command supports an UNARCHIVED option, then it can be used. However, this may result in making backups unusable, and forcing the drop of some offline files.
-
Cause: The time specified in a recover-until statement must be after January 1st 1988.
-
Action: Specify a time after January 1st 1988.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to enable a thread with all logs needing to be archived, and media recovery has been enabled. There is no log that can be made the new current log for the thread.
-
Action: Archive a log for the thread or disable media recovery.
-
Cause: Some type of redo log corruption has been discovered. This error describes the location of the corruption. Accompanying errors describe the type of corruption.
-
Action: Perform recovery with a good version of the redo log or do incomplete recovery up to the indicated change or time.
-
Cause: The block header on the redo block indicated by the accompanying error is not valid. The block number and time-stamp are given in an accompanying message.
-
Action: Perform recovery with a good version of the redo log or perform cancel-based recovery up to, but not including, the corrupted redo log file. If this happens when archiving, archiving of the problem log can be skipped by clearing the log with the UNARCHIVED option. This must be followed by a backup of every datafile to insure recoverability of the database.
-
Cause: A change number found in the redo log is lower than a previously encountered change number. The log is corrupted in some way. The corruption may be at the earlier change or at this one.
-
Action: Perform recovery with a good version of the log or perform time-based recovery up to the indicated time.
-
Cause: A change record in the redo log contains lengths that do not add up to a consistent value. The log is corrupted in some way.
-
Action: Perform recovery with a good version of the log or do time-based recovery up to the indicated time.
-
Cause: An ADD LOGFILE or ADD LOGFILE MEMBER command would result in a log with too many members. The number of members is set when the database is created.
-
Action: Use fewer log file members.
-
Cause: A CREATE or ALTER statement specified too many members in a parenthesised file list.
-
Action: Specify a number of file members that is within the port-defined limit.
-
Cause: An ADD LOGFILE MEMBER or DROP LOGFILE request specified a log file group number that does not exist.
-
Action: Check the configuration of the log files and reissue the command.
-
Cause: A file name was given to DROP LOGFILE MEMBER command that is not a part of the database, or which is a datafile.
-
Action: Supply a valid log file member name.
-
Cause: An attempt has been made to remove the last member of a log file group.
-
Action: If desired, delete the entire log, by using DROP LOGFILE.
-
Cause: A request to drop a log file member was denied because it would remove data required to form a complete log file.
-
Action: If desired, delete the entire log (after archiving if required), by using DROP LOGFILE.
-
Cause: The log given to recovery is a backup of the online version from the time it was the current log. The archived version of the log would not be marked as end of thread. This error can also be caused by failing to list the current log of an enabled thread in a CREATE CONTROLFILE command.
-
Action: Find the archived version of the log and supply its name. If this is media recovery immediately following a CREATE CONTROLFILE, be sure the current log for this thread was included.
-
Cause: An I/O error occurred when attempting to write the header to a log member that is being added to an existing group.
-
Action: See accompanying errors. Fix the problem or use another file.
-
Cause: The specified log failed to pass checks to ensure it corresponds to the log that was just applied. This is probably the result of using a log that was generated against a cold backup image of the database.
-
Action: Find the log that was generated by this copy of the database and give that file name to recovery.
-
Cause: The file header for the redo log contains a checksum that does not match the value calculated from the file header as read from disk. This means the file header is corrupted.
-
Action: Find and install correct version of the log or reset the logs.
-
Cause: The file header for the redo log contains a checksum that does not match the value calculated from the file header as read from disk. This means the file header is corrupted.
-
Action: Find the correct file and try again.
-
Cause: The redo block indicated by the accompanying error, is not valid. It has a checksum that does not match the block contents.
-
Action: Perform recovery with a good version of the log or do time-based recovery up to the indicated time. If this happens when archiving, archiving of the problem log can be skipped by clearing the log with the UNARCHIVED option. This must be followed by a backup of every datafile to insure recoverability of the database. Restore the correct file or reset logs.
-
Cause: An attempt to open the thread failed because it is necessary to switch redo generation to another online log, but all the other logs are being cleared or need to be archived before they can be used.
-
Action: If the ALTER DATABASE CLEAR LOGFILE command is still active, then wait for it to complete. Otherwise, reissue the CLEAR command. If there are other online logs for the thread that are not being cleared, then archive the logs.
-
Cause: The
SHARED_POOL_SIZE
initialization parameter is too small. -
Action: Increase the parameter value.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to modify the contents of a file that cannot be modified. The file is most likely part of a read-only tablespace but may be in the process of going offline, or the database may be in the process of closing.
-
Action: Check the status of the file and its tablespace.
-
Cause: The online log was written by an incompatible version of Oracle. This can occur when the log file was created by either a new or older version of Oracle.
-
Action: Recover the database with the compatible software, shut it down cleanly, and then restart with current software.
-
Cause: An invalid value was specified for the DB_BLOCK_SIZE parameter.
-
Action: Adjust the value of the parameter and restart the instance.
-
Cause: The system was unable to determine the default value for DB_BLOCK_SIZE.
-
Action: See the accompanying system-specific error. As a workaround, specify the block size in the initialization parameter file.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to read from a file that is not readable. Most likely the file is offline.
-
Action: Check the state of the file. Bring it online.
-
Cause: Backups are occurring too frequently on this file. Each time a new backup is started for a file, any writes which have been previously issued (but not completed) have to be re-issued. If hot backups are started very, very frequently, it is possible that some writes will be re-issued repeatedly and never complete.
-
Action: Increase the interval between begin hot-backup commands for this file.
-
Cause: The number of buffers or the number of LRU latches is too small to satisfy the specified buffer pool configuration.
-
Action: Either increase the number of buffers and/or number of LRU latches or configure smaller buffer pools.
-
Cause: All buffers in the specified buffer pool for the specified block size are in use and no free buffers are available.
-
Action: Increase the number of buffers in the specified pool for the specified block size.
-
Cause: User specified the parameter DB_nK_CACHE_SIZE (where n is one of 2,4,8,16,32), while the standard block size for this database is equal to n Kbytes. This is illegal.
-
Action: Specify the standard block size cache using DB_CACHE_SIZE (DEFAULT pool) (and DB_RECYCLE_CACHE_SIZE, DB_KEEP_CACHE_SIZE if additional buffer pools are required). Do NOT use the corresponding DB_nK_CACHE_SIZE parameter for the standard block size.
-
Cause: User specified one or more of {DB_CACHE_SIZE, DB_RECYCLE_CACHE_SIZE, DB_KEEP_CACHE_SIZE, DB_nK_CACHE_SIZE (where n is one of {2, 4, 8, 16, 32}) AND one or more of {DB_BLOCK_BUFFERS, BUFFER_POOL_KEEP, BUFFER_POOL_RECYCLE}. This is illegal.
-
Action: Use EITHER the old (pre-Oracle 9.0.0) parameters OR the new ones. Don't specify both. If old size parameters are specified in the parameter file, you may want to replace them with new parameters since the new parameters can be modified dynamically and allow you to configure additional caches for additional block sizes.
-
Cause: User specified a value for DB_nK_CACHE_SIZE where n is one of {2, 4, 8, 16, 32}, but nk is not a valid block size for this platform.
-
Action: Remove corresponding parameter from the initialization parameter file and restart the instance.
-
Cause: User attempted to reduce DB_CACHE_SIZE to zero, or attempted to reduce DB_nK_CACHE_SIZE to zero while there were still online tablespaces with block size nK. Note that since the SYSTEM tablespace cannot be taken offline, it is always illegal to set DB_CACHE_SIZE to zero.
-
Action: Offline any tablespaces with the corresponding block size and then perform the operation again.
-
Cause: The system could not allocate sufficient memory to grow the cache to the specified size.
-
Action: Attempt a smaller increase in the value of the parameter.
-
Cause: An attempt to switch to a new online log for the redo thread failed because no reusable log could be found. This log is being cleared and will be usable when the clearing completes. The command that began the clearing may have terminated without completing the clearing.
-
Action: If the clear command is still executing, then wait for its completion. If it terminated, then reissue the clear command, or drop the log.
-
Cause: An attempt to switch the current log of a single thread is not allowed because the compatibility requirements force a new log format version number. When changing log formats, all threads must switch to the new format at the same time.
-
Action: Open the database to cause the coordinated log switch. If that is not possible, then return to the same software version and compatibility setting last used to open the database.
-
Cause: An operation encountered this online log in the middle of being cleared. The command that began the clearing may have terminated without completing the clearing.
-
Action: If the clear command is still executing, then wait for its completion. If it terminated, then reissue the clear command or drop the log.
-
Cause: Log cannot be cleared because the redo in it is needed to recover offline datafiles. It has not been archived so there is no other copy available. If the log is cleared, the tablespaces containing the files will have to be dropped.
-
Action: Archive the log and then repeat the clear command. If archiving is not possible, and dropping the tablespaces is acceptable, then add the clause UNRECOVERABLE DATAFILE at the end of the clear command.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to reuse an online log file that is being archived.
-
Action: The online log file has been overwritten; it cannot be archived.
-
Cause: A clone database open forces log file renaming to avoid overwriting the primary log files.
-
Action: Rename the log files manually or using the LOG_FILE_NAME_CONVERT initialization parameter.
-
Cause: The indicated error caused two-pass instance or crash recovery to fail. Recovery was retried with an alternate (slower) method to avoid the error.
-
Action: Correct the cause of the indicated error (also recorded) so that future instance or crash recovery can succeed with the new algorithm. This usually requires making more main storage available to the recovery process.
-
Cause: The specified block is missing changes that should have been written to disk, indicating a lost write by the file I/O subsystem or volume manager.
-
Action: Run diagnostic checks on the I/O subsystem and resolve any errors
-
Cause: Global enqueue service reconfiguration occurred during instance/crash recovery.
-
Action: This is used internally, no action is required.
-
Cause: A change vector in the redo log failed validation checks.
-
Action: Do recovery with a good version of the log or do time based recovery up to the indicated time.
-
Cause: The release level given for the specified initialization parameter is invalid.
-
Action: Correct the parameter value in the parameter file and retry.
-
Cause: The value specified cannot be supported by this release of the software.
-
Action: Choose an appropriate value, or remove the parameter value to use the default value.
-
Cause: Changes have been made to the database that require a newer software release or that violate the compatibility parameters.
-
Action: Use a version of the software that can understand the changes or relax the compatibility requirements in the initialization file.
-
Cause: Another instance has set the COMPATIBLE or COMPATIBLE NO RECOVERY parameters differently than this instance.
-
Action: Change the parameters of the current instance to match other instances already running.
-
Cause: The file used for converting the database from V7 to V8 could not be found.
-
Action: Verify that the migration process has been started on this database and that the convert file name is accessible.
-
Cause: Reporting a type associated with another error.
-
Action: See the accompanying error.
-
Cause: The value of the COMPATIBLE initialization parameter is not high enough to allow the operation. Allowing the command would make the database incompatible with the release specified by the current COMPATIBLE parameter.
-
Action: Shut down and restart with a higher compatibility setting.
-
Cause: Another instance executing software at a different point release already has the database mounted.
-
Action: Shut down all instances then restart with the new software.
-
Cause: Reporting the parameter that resulted in the compatibility error.
-
Action: Shut down and restart with a higher compatibility setting.
-
Cause: This is due to upgrading from an older release of Oracle with tablespaces created using automatic segment-space management. To open the database, the
COMPATIBLE
parameter needs to be set to the specified value or higher. -
Action: Shut down and start up with the specified compatibility setting.
-
Cause: This installed Oracle software is not licensed to run on this CPU. This can also occur if Oracle software has been installed incorrectly, for example, with the wrong licensing codes.

If the trace file mentions any other background process messages, check the trace file for the mentioned process until the root message is found.
-
Cause: The System Monitor process terminated abnormally.
-
Action: Check the accompanying messages, if any, and the background process trace file. Correct the problem mentioned in the messages. Then shut down and restart the instance. If the trace file mentions any other background process messages, check the trace file for the mentioned process until the root message is found.
-
Cause: The system tracing process terminated abnormally.
-
Action: Restart the instance.
-
Cause: The distributed transaction (two-phase commit) recovery process terminated abnormally.
-
Action: Restart the instance.
-
Cause: A materialized view refresh process terminated abnormally.
-
Action: PMON will restart SNP process shortly. If SNP process does not get started, contact Oracle Support Services.

-
Action: Restart the instance.
-
Cause: A global enqueue service daemon process terminated abnormally.
-
Action: Restart the instance.
-
Cause: One of the background processes did not exit normally at or near the time of shutdown.
-
Action: Use the SHUTDOWN ABORT command. Check the accompanying messages, if any, and the background process trace file. Correct the problem mentioned in the messages. Then shut down and restart the instance. If the trace file mentions any other background process messages, check the trace file for the mentioned process until the root message is found.
-
Cause: A global cache service process terminated abnormally.
-
Action: Warm start the instance.
-
Cause: A global diagnostic process died.
-
Action: Wait for the process to restart.
-
Cause: The number of registered interrupt handling routines for when the break key is entered exceeds the maximum allowed.
-
Action: Reduce the number of registered interrupt handlers.
-
Cause: This is the generic internal error number for Oracle program exceptions. It indicates that a process has encountered a low-level, unexpected condition. Causes of this message include:
- timeouts

ORA-00900 to ORA-01499
-
Cause: The statement is not recognized as a valid SQL statement. This error can occur if the Procedural Option is not installed and a SQL statement is issued that requires this option (for example, a CREATE PROCEDURE statement). You can determine if the Procedural Option is installed by starting SQL*Plus. If the PL/SQL banner is not displayed, then the option is not installed.
-
Action: Correct the syntax or install the Procedural Option.
-
Cause: The CREATE command was not followed by a valid CREATE option.
-
Action: Correct the syntax.
-
Cause: The datatype entered in the CREATE or ALTER TABLE statement is not valid.
-
Action: Correct the syntax.
-
Cause: A table or cluster name is invalid or does not exist. This message is also issued if an invalid cluster name or no cluster name is specified in an ALTER CLUSTER or DROP CLUSTER statement.
-
Action: Check spelling. A valid table name or cluster name must begin with a letter and may contain only alphanumeric characters and the special characters $, _, and #. The name must be less than or equal to 30 characters and cannot be a reserved word.
-
Cause: The column name entered is either missing or invalid.
-
Action: Enter a valid column name. A valid column name must begin with a letter, be less than or equal to 30 characters, and consist of only alphanumeric characters and the special characters $, _, and #. If it contains other characters, then it must be enclosed in double quotation marks. It may not be a reserved word.
-
Cause: A required keyword is missing.
-
Action: Correct the syntax.
-
Cause: A required left parenthesis has been omitted. Certain commands, such as CREATE TABLE, CREATE CLUSTER, and INSERT, require a list of items enclosed in parentheses. Parentheses also are required around subqueries in WHERE clauses and in UPDATE table SET column = (SELECT...) statements.
-
Action: Correct the syntax, inserting a left parenthesis where required, and retry the statement.
-
Cause: A left parenthesis has been entered without a closing right parenthesis, or extra information was contained in the parentheses. All parentheses must be entered in pairs.
-
Action: Correct the syntax and retry the statement.
-
Cause: Either of the following: In a CREATE TABLE or ALTER TABLE statement, NOT was entered to specify that no null values are allowed in that column, but the keyword NULL was omitted. In the IS [NOT] NULL logical operator, the keyword NULL was not found. For example, the following statement generates this message:
SELECT * FROM EMP WHERE DEPTNO IS NOT;
The keyword NULL must follow the keywords IS NOT.
-
Action: Correct the syntax.
-
Cause: An Oracle function was referenced with an incorrect number of arguments. All Oracle functions, except for SYSDATE, require at least one argument.
-
Action: Correct the syntax of the function by entering the required number of arguments.
-
Cause: No size was specified for a character field or the size was invalid. A maximum length must be specified for each character column. The maximum value for this length varies for each character datatype, such as CHAR or VARCHAR2.
-
Action: Enter a maximum length for the field.
-
Cause: Special characters are valid only in certain places. If special characters other than $, _, and # are used in a name and the name is not enclosed in double quotation marks ("), this message will be issued. One exception to this rule is for database names; in this case, double quotes are stripped out and ignored.
-
Action: Remove the invalid character from the statement or enclose the object name in double quotation marks.
-
Cause: The SQL statement requires two sets of values equal in number. This error occurs when the second set contains more items than the first set. For example, the subquery in a WHERE or HAVING clause may return too many columns, or a VALUES or SELECT clause may return more columns than are listed in the INSERT.
-
Action: Check the number of items in each set and change the SQL statement to make them equal.
-
Cause: The keyword ADD does not precede one of the following:
-
Action: Specify the keyword ADD in the ALTER statement.
-
Cause: This is an internal error message not usually issued.
-
Action: Contact Oracle Support Services.
-
Cause: A required comma has been omitted from a list of columns or values in an INSERT statement or a list of the form ((C,D),(E,F), ...).
-
Action: Correct the syntax.
-
Cause: A column name used in a join exists in more than one table and is thus referenced ambiguously. In a join, any column name that occurs in more than one of the tables must be prefixed by its table name when referenced. The column should be referenced as TABLE.COLUMN or TABLE_ALIAS.COLUMN. For example, if tables EMP and DEPT are being joined and both contain the column DEPTNO, then all references to DEPTNO should be prefixed with the table name, as in EMP.DEPTNO or E.DEPTNO.
-
Action: Prefix references to column names that exist in multiple tables with either the table name or a table alias and a period (.), as in the examples above.
-
Cause: An entry was formatted like a function call, but it is not recognizable as an Oracle function.
-
Action: Correct the syntax.
-
Cause: A search condition was entered with an invalid or missing relational operator.
-
Action: Include a valid relational operator such as =, !=, ^=, <>, >, <, >=, <=, ALL, ANY, [NOT] BETWEEN, EXISTS, [NOT] IN, IS [NOT] NULL, or [NOT] LIKE in the condition.
-
Cause: The SQL command was not complete. Part of a valid command was entered, but at least one major component was omitted.
-
Action: Correct the syntax.
-
Cause: An invalid option was specified in defining a column or storage clause. The valid option in specifying a column is NOT NULL to specify that the column cannot contain any NULL values. Only constraints may follow the datatype. Specifying a maximum length on a DATE or LONG datatype also causes this error.
-
Action: Correct the syntax. Remove the erroneous option or length specification from the column or storage specification.
-
Cause: In a SELECT or REVOKE statement, the keyword FROM was either missing, misplaced, or misspelled. The keyword FROM must follow the last selected item in a SELECT statement or the privileges in a REVOKE statement.
-
Action: Correct the syntax. Insert the keyword FROM where appropriate. The SELECT list itself also may be in error. If quotation marks were used in an alias, check that double quotation marks enclose the alias. Also, check to see if a reserved word was used as an alias.
-
Cause: The keyword BY was omitted in a GROUP BY, ORDER BY, or CONNECT BY clause. In a GRANT statement, the keyword IDENTIFIED must also be followed by the keyword BY.
-
Action: Correct the syntax. Insert the keyword BY where required and then retry the statement.
-
Cause: An INSERT statement has been entered without the keyword INTO.
-
Action: Correct the syntax. Insert the keyword INTO where required and then retry the statement.
-
Cause: An INSERT statement has been entered without the keyword VALUES or SELECT. Either a VALUES clause or a SELECT subquery must follow the INSERT INTO clause.
-
Action: Correct the syntax. Enter either a VALUES clause or a subquery after the INSERT INTO clause.
-
Cause: An equal sign has been omitted in one of the following places:
-
Action: Correct the syntax. Insert the equal sign where required and retry the statement.
-
Cause: A SELECT subquery must be included in a CREATE VIEW statement.
-
Action: Correct the syntax. Insert the required SELECT clause after the CREATE VIEW clause and then retry the statement.
-
Cause: This is an internal error message not usually issued.
-
Action: Contact Oracle Support Services.
-
Cause: This is an internal error message not usually issued.
-
Action: Contact Oracle Support Services.
-
Cause: The specified string does not contain an identifier.
-
Action: Correct the string argument.
-
Cause: One of the following:
- An attempt was made to perform an operation on incompatible datatypes. For example, adding a character field to a date field (dates may only be added to numeric fields) or concatenating a character field with a long field.
- An attempt was made to perform an operation on a database object (such as a table or view) that is not intended for normal use. For example, system tables cannot be modified by a user. Note that on rare occasions this error occurs because a misspelled object name matched a restricted object's name.
- An attempt was made to use an undocumented view.
-
Action: If the cause is
- different datatypes, then use consistent datatypes. For example, convert the character field to a numeric field with the TO_NUMBER function before adding it to the date field. Functions may not be used with long fields.
- an object not intended for normal use, then do not access the restricted object.
-
Cause: The SQL statement ends with an inappropriate clause. For example, an ORDER BY clause may have been included in a CREATE VIEW or INSERT statement. ORDER BY cannot be used to create an ordered view or to insert in a certain order.
-
Action: Correct the syntax by removing the inappropriate clauses. It may be possible to duplicate the removed clause with another SQL statement. For example, to order the rows of a view, do so when querying the view and not when creating it. This error can also occur in SQL*Forms applications if a continuation line is indented. Check for indented lines and delete these spaces.
-
Cause: One of the group functions, such as AVG, COUNT, MAX, MIN, SUM, STDDEV, or VARIANCE, was used in a WHERE or GROUP BY clause.
-
Action: Remove the group function from the WHERE or GROUP BY clause. The desired result may be achieved by including the function in a subquery or HAVING clause.
-
Cause: This is an internal error message not usually issued.
-
Action: Contact Oracle Support Services.
-
Cause: A required part of a clause or expression has been omitted. For example, a SELECT statement may have been entered without a list of columns or expressions or with an incomplete expression. This message is also issued in cases where a reserved word is misused, as in SELECT TABLE.
-
Action: Check the statement syntax and specify the missing component.
-
Cause: A SELECT list cannot include both a group function, such as AVG, COUNT, MAX, MIN, SUM, STDDEV, or VARIANCE, and an individual column expression, unless the individual column expression is included in a GROUP BY clause.
-
Action: Drop either the group function or the individual column expression from the SELECT list or add a GROUP BY clause that includes all individual column expressions listed.
-
Cause: The function was referenced with too few arguments.
-
Action: Check the function syntax and specify the required number of arguments.
-
Cause: The function was referenced with too many arguments.
-
Action: Check the function syntax and specify only the required number of arguments.
-
Cause: An invalid ALTER option was specified.
-
Action: Correct the syntax.
-
Cause: The cluster name was either missing or invalid.
-
Action: Specify a valid cluster name. A valid cluster name must start with a letter, be less than or equal to 30 characters, and contain only alphanumeric characters or the special characters $, _, and #. It may not be a reserved word. The name must be specified immediately following the keywords CREATE CLUSTER.
-
Cause: The table or view entered does not exist, a synonym that is not allowed here was used, or a view was referenced where a table is required. Existing user tables and views can be listed by querying the data dictionary. Certain privileges may be required to access the table. If an application returned this message, the table the application tried to access does not exist in the database, or the application does not have access to it.
-
Action: Check each of the following:
- the spelling of the table or view name.
- that a view is not specified where a table is required.
- that an existing table or view name exists.
Contact the database administrator if the table needs to be created or if user or application privileges are required to access the table.
Also, if attempting to access a table or view in another schema, make certain the correct schema is referenced and that access to the object is granted.
-
Cause: The current user owns no cluster by the specified name.
-
Action: Specify a valid cluster name following the keyword CLUSTER, then retry the statement.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to create a table with fewer cluster columns than were specified in the CREATE CLUSTER statement. The CLUSTER clause of a CREATE TABLE statement must specify all cluster columns that were defined when the cluster was created.
-
Action: Specify all cluster columns in the CREATE TABLE statement, then retry it.
-
Cause: A column specified in the cluster clause of a CREATE TABLE statement is not a column in this table.
-
Action: Re-execute the statement, using the names of columns defined for the table.
-
Cause: A GRANT statement was specified without the keyword TO, or an invalid form of the GRANT command was entered.
-
Action: Check the syntax for the GRANT command, insert the keyword TO where required, and retry the statement.
-
Cause: This error occurs when a SQL statement requires two sets of values equal in number, but the second set contains fewer items than the first set. This can occur in a WHERE or HAVING clause in which a nested SELECT returns too few columns as in:
WHERE (A,B) IN (SELECT C FROM ...)
Another common cause of this error is an INSERT statement in which the VALUES or SELECT clause does not contain enough values needed for the INSERT, as in
INSERT INTO EMP(EMPNO,ENAME) VALUES('JONES')
-
Action: Check the number of items in each set and change the SQL statement to make them equal.
-
Cause: The ALTER CLUSTER statement has been withdrawn.
-
Action: To add data to a cluster from an existing table, use the following series of SQL statements:
CREATE TABLE newtable SELECT * FROM oldtable CLUSTER clustername; DROP oldtable; RENAME TABLE newtable oldtable;
-
Cause: This is an internal error message not usually issued.
-
Action: Contact Oracle Support Services.
-
Cause: A DROP command was not followed by a valid DROP option, such as CLUSTER, DATABASE LINK, INDEX, ROLLBACK SEGMENT, SEQUENCE, SYNONYM, TABLE, TABLESPACE, or VIEW.
-
Action: Check the command syntax, specify a valid DROP option, then retry the statement.
-
Cause: A DROP CLUSTER statement specified a cluster that is not empty. A cluster may not be dropped if it contains any tables, unless the optional INCLUDING TABLES clause is specified. Tables may also be removed from a cluster by using the DROP TABLE command.
-
Action: Either specify the INCLUDING TABLES clause in the DROP CLUSTER statement or remove all tables from the cluster with the DROP TABLE command before issuing the DROP CLUSTER command.
-
Cause: Groups are not currently implemented.
-
Action: No user action required.
-
Cause: In a CREATE INDEX, DROP INDEX, or VALIDATE INDEX statement, the index name was missing or invalid.
-
Action: Specify a valid index name after the keyword INDEX. To drop or validate an existing index, check the name by querying the data dictionary. To create a new index, check the syntax before retrying.
-
Cause: A GRANT CONNECT statement was issued without the keyword IDENTIFIED.
-
Action: Check the syntax and insert the keyword IDENTIFIED after the last username. The format is
GRANT CONNECT TO user-list IDENTIFIED BY password-list;
-
Cause: An attempt was made to create a database object (such as a table, view, cluster, index, or synonym) that already exists. A user's database objects must have distinct names.
-
Action: Enter a unique name for the database object or modify or drop the existing object so it can be reused.
-
Cause: An AUDIT or NOAUDIT command was not followed by a valid option or the keyword ALL. For example, when AUDITing tables an option such as ALTER, AUDIT, COMMENT, DELETE, GRANT, INDEX, INSERT, LOCK, RENAME, SELECT, or UPDATE must be specified.
-
Action: Correct the syntax.
-
Cause: A column name was specified twice in a CREATE or INSERT statement. Column names must be unique within a table, view, or cluster.
-
Action: In a CREATE statement, change one of the column names to a new, unique column name. In an INSERT statement, remove one of the duplicate names.
-
Cause: The keyword CHECK should follow the keyword WITH in the WITH OPTION clause of the CREATE VIEW statement.
-
Action: Check the statement syntax and insert the keyword CHECK where required. Then retry the statement.
-
Cause: A statement specified the name of a tablespace that does not exist.
-
Action: Enter the name of an existing tablespace. For a list of tablespace names, query the data dictionary.
-
Cause: A column name in the order-by list matches more than one select list columns.
-
Action: Remove duplicate column naming in select list.
-
Cause: The group-by or order-by column list contain more than 1000 expressions.
-
Action: Use no more than 1000 expressions in the group-by or order-by list.
-
Cause: An unsupported interval type was encountered.
-
Action: Use a valid interval type.
-
Cause: A table specified in a query's SELECT list is not named in the FROM clause list.
-
Action: Check spelling of the table names, check that each table name in the SELECT list matches a table name in the FROM list, and then retry the statement.
-
Cause: An alias was used with the return-all-columns function (*) in the SELECT list. For example:
SELECT * COL_ALIAS FROM EMP;
-
Action: Either specify individual columns or do not specify an alias with a "*".
-
Cause: A LOCK statement was specified and the keyword TABLE was missing, misspelled, or misplaced. A LOCK statement must begin with LOCK TABLE tablename.
-
Action: Correct the syntax.
-
Cause: The keyword WHERE in a SELECT statement was missing, misspelled, or misplaced.
-
Action: Correct the syntax.
-
Cause: The keyword INDEX in a CREATE UNIQUE INDEX or VALIDATE INDEX statement was missing, misspelled, or misplaced.
-
Action: Correct the syntax.
-
Cause: The keyword ON in a GRANT, REVOKE, or CREATE INDEX statement was missing, misspelled, or misplaced.
-
Action: Check syntax and spelling, and use the keyword ON where required.
-
Cause: The keyword START was specified without the keyword WITH. Both keywords are necessary if a START WITH clause is desired in a tree-structured query.
-
Action: Change the keyword START to the keywords START WITH. Then retry the statement.
-
Cause: The keyword SET in an UPDATE statement is missing, misspelled, or misplaced.
-
Action: Check syntax and spelling, and use the keyword SET after the name of the table to be updated.
-
Cause: The name of a schema object exceeds 30 characters. Schema objects are tables, clusters, views, indexes, synonyms, tablespaces, and usernames.
-
Action: Shorten the name to 30 characters or less.
-
Cause: The percentage of free space specified in a CREATE INDEX statement is not between 0 and 100. A PCTFREE value of 0 means the entire block is available. The value 100 is not useful because it means that no data may be inserted. The default is 10.
-
Action: Specify a PCTFREE value between 0 and 100. Then retry the statement.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to add two date fields together. Dates may be added only to numeric fields, not to other dates.
-
Action: Use the Oracle function TO_NUMBER to convert one of the date fields to a numeric field before adding it to the other date field.
-
Cause: The use of the PRIOR clause, the pseudo-column LEVEL, or ROWNUM is incorrect in this context.
-
Action: Check the syntax for the SQL statement. Then remove or relocate the keyword PRIOR, LEVEL, or ROWNUM.
-
Cause: An AUDIT or NOAUDIT statement specified the same option more than once.
-
Action: Either specify ALL without other auditing options or remove the duplicate auditing specifications.
-
Cause: A group function, such as AVG, COUNT, MAX, MIN, SUM, STDDEV, or VARIANCE, was used within another group function, as in MAX(COUNT(*)), without a corresponding GROUP BY clause.
-
Action: Either add a GROUP BY clause or remove the extra level of nesting.
-
Cause: The GROUP BY clause does not contain all the expressions in the SELECT clause. SELECT expressions that are not included in a group function, such as AVG, COUNT, MAX, MIN, SUM, STDDEV, or VARIANCE, must be listed in the GROUP BY clause.
-
Action: Include in the GROUP BY clause all SELECT expressions that are not group function arguments.
-
Cause: The synonym used is based on a table, view, or synonym that no longer exists.
-
Action: Replace the synonym with the name of the object it references or re-create the synonym so that it refers to a valid table, view, or synonym.
-
Cause: Both table-wide and system-wide options were specified within a single AUDIT statement.
-
Action: Check the AUDIT command syntax. Then retry one or more AUDIT statements.
-
Cause: A left parenthesis appeared in a join condition, but a plus sign (+) did not follow. A left parenthesis in a join condition usually signals an outer-join specification and so a plus sign is expected to follow. To specify an outer join on a column in a join operation, follow the column reference in the join condition with a plus sign (+) enclosed in parentheses.
-
Action: Correct the SQL syntax and retry the statement.
-
Cause: A column name was used in an expression where it is not permitted, such as in the VALUES clause of an INSERT statement.
-
Action: Check the syntax of the statement and use column names only where appropriate.
-
Cause: Probably a syntax error.
-
Action: Correct syntax.
-
Cause: Probably a syntax error.
-
Action: Correct syntax.
-
Cause: No username was specified in a GRANT statement or one of the specified usernames is invalid. Valid usernames must be specified following the keyword TO in a GRANT statement to define a user. A username must begin with a letter, consist only of alphanumeric characters and the special characters $, _, and #, and be less than or equal to 30 characters. If it contains other characters, it must be enclosed in double quotation marks. It may not be a reserved word.
-
Action: Specify a valid username, or list of usernames, following the keyword TO in the GRANT statement.
-
Cause: More usernames than passwords were specified in a GRANT statement. A valid password must be specified for each username listed in the GRANT statement.
-
Action: Enter a valid password for each username.
-
Cause: More passwords than usernames were specified in a GRANT statement. Only one password may be entered for each username listed in the GRANT statement.
-
Action: Enter an equal number of usernames and passwords.
-
Cause: No privileges were specified in a GRANT privilege statement, or one of the specified privileges is invalid.
-
Action: Enter one or more valid privileges such as SELECT, INSERT, DELETE, UPDATE, ALTER, INDEX, REFERENCES, or ALL. More than one privilege may be granted by entering the privileges in a list separated by commas (,) or by specifying the keyword ALL to grant all privileges.
-
Cause: Object privileges or non-MAC system privileges were granted to the procedure.
-
Action: Only grant MAC privileges using the PROCEDURE clause.
-
Cause: An invalid form of the REVOKE command was entered. There are two forms of the REVOKE command. The first form is used to revoke a user's database access privileges. The second form is used to revoke a user's object privileges.
-
Action: Check the command syntax and retry the statement.
-
Cause: The keyword WITH was specified at the end of a GRANT statement without the keyword GRANT. To grant privileges to a user and the permission to grant those privileges to another user, you must specify the keywords WITH GRANT OPTION at the end of the GRANT statement.
-
Action: Change the keyword WITH to the keywords WITH GRANT OPTION, then retry the statement.
-
Cause: The keywords WITH GRANT were specified at the end of a GRANT statement without the keyword OPTION.
-
Action: Change the keywords WITH GRANT to the keywords WITH GRANT OPTION. Then retry the statement.
-
Cause: In a CREATE or DROP SYNONYM statement, the synonym name was either missing or invalid.
-
Action: Check syntax and spelling. A valid synonym name must be specified immediately following the keyword SYNONYM in both statements. Valid synonym names must begin with a letter, consist of alphanumeric characters and the special characters $, _, and #, and be less than or equal to 30 characters. They may not be reserved words.
-
Cause: A single bar (|) was interpreted as an attempt to specify concatenation, but the concatenation operator is a double bar (||).
-
Action: Enter a double bar (||) for concatenation or remove the single bar (|) if concatenation was not intended.
-
Cause: A value of datatype LONG was used in a function or in a DISTINCT, WHERE, CONNECT BY, GROUP BY, or ORDER BY clause. A LONG value can only be used in a SELECT clause.
-
Action: Remove the LONG value from the function or clause.
-
Cause: An expression or function was used in a CREATE VIEW statement, but no corresponding column name was specified. When expressions or functions are used in a view, all column names for the view must be explicitly specified in the CREATE VIEW statement.
-
Action: Enter a column name for each column in the view in parentheses after the view name.
-
Cause: In a CREATE VIEW statement, the view name was missing or invalid.
-
Action: Enter a valid view name following CREATE VIEW. Valid view names must begin with a letter, consist of only alphanumeric characters and the special characters $, _, and #, be less than or equal to 30 characters, and may not be reserved words. If the view name contains other characters, it must be enclosed in double quotation marks.
-
Cause: A host language program attempted to open too many cursors. The initialization parameter OPEN_CURSORS determines the maximum number of cursors per user.
-
Action: Modify the program to use fewer cursors. If this error occurs often, shut down Oracle, increase the value of OPEN_CURSORS, and then restart Oracle.
-
Cause: Either a host language program call specified an invalid cursor or the value of the MAXOPENCURSORS option in the precompiler command were too small. All cursors must be opened using the OOPEN call before being referenced in any of the following calls: SQL, DESCRIBE, NAME, DEFINE, BIND, EXEC, FETCH, and CLOSE. The Logon Data Area (LDA) must be defined by using OLON or OLOGON. If the LDA is not defined, this message is issued for the following calls: OPEN, COM, CON, ROL, and LOGOFF.
-
Action: Check the erroneous call statement. Specify a correct LDA area or open the cursor as required. If there is no problem with the cursor, it may be necessary to increase the MAXOPENCURSORS option value before precompiling.
-
Cause: In a host language program, a FETCH call was issued out of sequence. A successful parse-and-execute call must be issued before a fetch. This can occur if an attempt was made to FETCH from an active set after all records have been fetched. This may be caused by fetching from a SELECT FOR UPDATE cursor after a commit. A PL/SQL cursor loop implicitly does fetches and may also cause this error.
-
Action: Parse and execute a SQL statement before attempting to fetch the data.
-
Cause: A host language program call referenced a cursor with no associated parsed SQL statement. A SQL call (for example, OSQL3) must be used to pass a SQL statement to Oracle and to associate the statement with an open cursor. A cursor must already have an associated SQL statement if referenced in any of the following calls: DESCRIBE, NAME, DEFINE, BIND, EXECUTE, and FETCH.
-
Action: Do the SQL call, for example, OSQL, to pass the required SQL statement before referencing the cursor.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to use automatic logon on a system not supporting this feature.
-
Action: Provide the complete username and password to log on to Oracle.
-
Cause: An invalid password was given when logging on.
-
Action: Provide a valid password.
-
Cause: A program issued a BIND call for a variable not listed in the associated SQL statement. Only those variables prefixed by either a colon (:) or ampersand (&) in the SQL statement may be referenced in a BIND call, OBIND or OBINDN. This error may also be caused by a mismatch between a Precompiler program and the related library, SQLLIB.
-
Action: Modify the BIND call to reference one of the substitute variables specified in the associated SQL statement.
-
Cause: A reference was made to a variable not listed in the SELECT clause. In OCI, this can occur if the number passed for the position parameter is less than one or greater than the number of variables in the SELECT clause in any of the following calls: DESCRIBE, NAME, or DEFINE. In SQL*Forms or SQL*Report, specifying more variables in an INTO clause than in the SELECT clause also causes this error.
-
Action: Determine which of the problems listed caused the problem and take appropriate action.
-
Cause: A SQL statement containing substitution variables was executed without all variables bound. All substitution variables must have a substituted value before the SQL statement is executed.
-
Action: In OCI, use an OBIND or OBINDN call to substitute the required values.
-
Cause: A host language program call did not pass all required parameters.
-
Action: Check the syntax for the call and enter all required parameters.
-
Cause: One of the following:
- You attempted an invalid OCI operation.
- You are using an Oracle client application linked with release 7.1 (or higher) libraries, the environment variable ORA_ENCRYPT_LOGIN is set to TRUE, and you attempted to connect to a release 7.0 (or lower) Oracle database server.
- You are connected to a release 7.1 (or higher) Oracle database server, the
DBLINK_ENCRYPT_LOGIN
initialization parameter is set toTRUE
, and you attempted to use a database link pointing to a release 7.0 (or lower) Oracle database server. - You are connected to a release 9.0.2(or higher) Oracle database server and you attempted to use a database link pointing to a release 9.0.1 (or lower) Oracle database server for distributed autonomous transactions.
-
Action: For the above causes:
- Do not use the invalid OCI operation.
- If you do not wish to use encrypted connect passwords in your distributed database, then set ORA_ENCRYPT_LOGIN to FALSE. If you wish to use encrypted connect passwords, then you must upgrade all Oracle database servers to release 7.1 (or higher).
- If you do not wish to use encrypted database links in your distributed database, then set
DBLINK_ENCRYPT_LOGIN
to FALSE. If you wish to use encrypted database links, then you must upgrade all Oracle database servers to release 7.1 (or higher). - Do not attempt distributed autonomous transactions on release 9.0.1 (or lower) Oracle database servers.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to use Oracle7 compatibility mode when accessing Oracle version 6.
-
Action: Use V6 SQL language type. You may need to use the SET COMPATIBILITY V6 command.
-
Cause: A host language program issued an Oracle call, other than OLON or OLOGON, without being logged on to Oracle. This can occur when a user process attempts to access the database after the instance it is connected to terminates, forcing the process to disconnect.
-
Action: Log on to Oracle, by calling OLON or OLOGON, before issuing any Oracle calls. When the instance has been restarted, retry the action.
-
Cause: The user interrupted an Oracle operation by entering CTRL-C, Control-C, or another canceling operation. This forces the current operation to end. This is an informational message only.
-
Action: Continue with the next operation.
-
Cause: A user tried to log on to Oracle while an instance shutdown was in progress. Oracle logons are disabled while Oracle is being shut down.
-
Action: Wait until Oracle is brought back up before attempting to log on.
-
Cause: This is an internal error message not usually issued.
-
Action: Contact Oracle Support Services.
-
Cause: The cursor is in an invalid state.
-
Action: Ensure the appropriate OCI/UPI function is called after the fetch and before the offending function.
-
Cause: An invalid username or password was entered in an attempt to log on to Oracle. The username and password must be the same as was specified in a GRANT CONNECT statement. If the username and password are entered together, the format is: username/password.
-
Action: Enter a valid username and password combination in the correct format.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to fetch data using the LONG fetch option, but the specified column was not LONG.
-
Action: Re-execute the fetch without the LONG fetch option or create the table with a LONG column.
-
Cause: The user side memory allocator returned an error.
-
Action: Increase the size of the process heap or switch to the old set of calls.
-
Cause: This is an internal error message not usually issued.
-
Action: Contact Oracle Support Services.
-
Cause: This is an internal error message not usually issued.
-
Action: Contact Oracle Support Services.
-
Cause: The attempted database operation does not conform to the user programming interface (UPI) for the two communicating Oracle servers.
-
Action: You may need to upgrade one or more of your Oracle servers or re-link your user side application with new libraries. Report the problem to Oracle Support Services.
-
Cause: The cursor number is not a valid open cursor.
-
Action: Make sure that the cursor is open.
-
Cause: An OCI program call specified an invalid datatype. In OCI calls, Oracle datatypes are specified as numbers between 1 and 7.
-
Action: Check the datatype description and enter the correct number for the datatype.
-
Cause: An integer parameter to a UPI function is out of range.
-
Action: This usually indicates an error in a tool built on top of the Oracle DBMS. Report the error to Oracle Support Services.
-
Cause: More than one long buffer in the bind list.
-
Action: Change the buffer size to be less than 4000 for the bind variable bound to a normal column.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to use a bind variable in a SQL data definition operation.
-
Action: Such bind variables are not allowed.
-
Cause: Received send long message but do not have the cursor context.
-
Action: Contact Oracle Support Services.
-
Cause: Received a request to send the long again when there is no long
-
Action: Contact Oracle Support Services.
-
Cause: The SELECT... INTO specified in the bind call does not correspond to a variable in the SQL statement.
-
Action: If it is not possible to correct the statement, then contact Oracle Support Services.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to change the current username or password without the appropriate privilege. This error also occurs if attempting to install a database without the necessary operating system privileges.
-
Action: Ask the database administrator to perform the operation or grant the required privileges.
-
Cause: This is an internal error message related to Export/Import.
-
Action: Contact Oracle Support Services.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to log on while Oracle is being started or shut down.
-
Action: Wait a few minutes. Then retry the operation.
-
Cause: Oracle was not started. Possible causes include the following:
-
Action: Refer to accompanying messages for possible causes and correct the problem mentioned in the other messages. If Oracle has been initialized, then on some operating systems, verify that Oracle was linked correctly. See the platform-specific Oracle documentation.
-
Cause: Logins are disallowed because an instance started in restricted mode. Only users with RESTRICTED SESSION system privilege can log on.
-
Action: Request that Oracle be restarted without the restricted option or obtain the RESTRICTED SESSION system privilege.
-
Cause: Unable to find bind context on user side.
-
Action: Make sure that the variable being bound is in the SQL statement.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to process a complex SQL statement which consumed all available memory of the cursor.
-
Action: Simplify the complex SQL statement. Alternatively, you can use the
NO_EXPAND
hint which prevents the cost-based optimizer from consideringOR
-expansion for queries havingOR
conditions orINLISTS
in theWHERE
clause. Usually, the optimizer considers usingOR
expansion and uses this method if it decides the cost is lower than not using it. Refer to the Oracle9i Database Performance Tuning Guide and Reference for information about using hints. -
Cause: An attempt was made to write datafile headers in an old format. The new format cannot be used until after the database has been verified as being compatible with this software version.
-
Action: Open the database to advance to the new file formats, then repeat the operation. If the operation is required before the database can be opened, then use the previous software release to do the operation.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to explain plan on other people's view without the necessary privileges on the underlying objects of the view.
-
Action: Get necessary privileges or do not perform the offending operation.
-
Cause: There are multibyte characters in the password or some characters in the password are not in US7ASCII range.
-
Action: Resubmit the password with valid characters.
-
Cause: Pointer to HSTDEF extension in HSTDEF is null.
-
Action: Contact Oracle Support Services.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to detach a session which had open cursors.
-
Action: Close all the cursors before detaching the session.
-
Cause: The application code corrupted some of the user memory used by Oracle.
-
Action: Make sure that the application code is not overwriting memory.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to bind a buffer whose total size would exceed the maximum size allowed. Total array size for arrays is calculated as:
(element_size)*(number of elements)
-
Action: Reduce the buffer size.
-
Cause: A connect was attempted to a userid which does not have create session privilege.
-
Action: Grant the user CREATE SESSION privilege.
-
Cause: Oracle could not extend the current area any further because the operating system would not supply any more space. A system-specific message should appear following this message.
-
Action: Close some cursors and try again or check operating system quotas to use more virtual memory. See your operating system-specific Oracle documentation.
-
Cause: This message is displayed after a previous message to provide more specific information.
-
Action: See the cause and action for the previous message.
-
Cause: The procedure user specified in deferred RPC does not exist.
-
Action: Check to make sure that the procedure exists and is visible to the replication process.
-
Cause: This error occurs when a newer server version requests from an older server version an operation that is not supported.
-
Action: You may need to upgrade one or more of your Oracle servers or relink your user application with new libraries.
-
Cause: Oracle could not open a new context area because the operating system would not supply any more space. A system-specific message should appear following this message.
-
Action: Close some cursors and try again or check operating system quotas to use more virtual memory. See your operating system-specific Oracle documentation.
-
Cause: The deferred RPC data in SYS.DEF$_CALL is corrupted.
-
Action: Contact Oracle Support Services.
-
Cause: A valid destination for parameter LOG_ARCHIVE_DUPLEX_DEST was not specified when parameter LOG_ARCHIVE_MIN_SUCCEED_DEST was set to 2.
-
Action: Either specify a value for parameter LOG_ARCHIVE_DUPLEX_DEST, or reduce the value for parameter LOG_ARCHIVE_MIN_SUCCEED_DEST to 1.
-
Cause: A bind variable or other user area could not be read by Oracle.
-
Action: Check that binds are done correctly on valid user buffers, then retry the operation.
-
Cause: A define, FETCH... INTO or SELECT... INTO, variable or other user area could not be written to by Oracle.
-
Action: Check that INTO variables and indicators are correctly specified. Then retry the operation.
-
Cause: The reference to a block.field identifier in a user exit is incorrect or ambiguous, probably because it is misspelled or incomplete.
-
Action: Check syntax and identifier spelling. Then correct the reference.
-
Cause: Attempt to delete non-existent HSTDEF extension.
-
Action: Contact Oracle Support Services.
-
Cause: The client application attempted to bind a variable or execute a cursor opened in a PL/SQL block before the statement was parsed.
-
Action: Ensure the statement is parsed before a bind or execute.
-
Cause: The client application attempted to bind an array of cursors or attempted to repeatedly execute against a PL/SQL block with a bind variable of type cursor.
-
Action: Bind a single cursor or execute the PL/SQL block once.
-
Cause: You are using an Oracle client application linked with version 7 (or lower) libraries and you attempted to start up a V8 (or higher) server.
-
Action: Use a client application linked with V8 (or higher) libraries.
-
Cause: Exceeded the maximum buffer size for current platform.
-
Action: Use piecewise fetch with a smaller buffer size.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to run an older, obsolete Oracle Server.
-
Action: Upgrade the server.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to perform an operation before Oracle was started.
-
Action: Start Oracle. Then retry the operation.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to stop Oracle, but Oracle was not running.
-
Action: No action required.
-
Cause: An illegal internal operation was attempted.
-
Action: Contact Oracle Support Services.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to shut down Oracle inside a logon session.
-
Action: Log off before shutting down Oracle.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to log on while already logged on.
-
Action: No action required.
-
Cause: Oracle does not support multiple logons per process.
-
Action: No action required.
-
Cause: A failure occurred during initialization of the background processes.
-
Action: Refer to the diagnostic information in the accompanying message stack or in the trace file and take appropriate action.
-
Cause: Failure during processing of initialization parameters during system startup.
-
Action: Further diagnostic information should be in the error stack.
-
Cause: There was an error when the database or control file was created.
-
Action: Check what error was signaled when the database was first created or when the control file was re-created. Take appropriate actions to re-create the database or a new control file.
-
Cause: A failure occurred during system shutdown.
-
Action: Refer to the diagnostic information in the accompanying message stack and take appropriate action.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to start Oracle while it was already running.
-
Action: Shut down Oracle first, if you want to restart it.
-
Cause: "row_locking = always" is specified in the INIT.ORA file. This feature is not supported by ORACLE without the transaction processing option.
-
Action: Remove it from INIT.ORA file or set it to "default" or "intent".
-
Cause: The value of the given initialization parameter is required to be the same for all instances in the cluster database configuration.
-
Action: Change the value of the initialization parameter in the initialization parameter file to match that of other cluster database instances.
-
Cause: The failing OCI call contains an argument with an invalid value.
-
Action: Use valid argument values. For more information, see the Oracle Call Interface Programmer's Guide and the appropriate programming language supplement.
-
Cause: Errors were encountered when the named procedure was executed as a deferred remote procedure call.
-
Action: Correct the cause of the preceding errors.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to roll back to a savepoint that was never established.
-
Action: No action is required.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to start up Oracle by a user who is currently logged on.
-
Action: Log off. Then issue the STARTUP command.
-
Cause: Users are still logged into the instance.
-
Action: Either wait for all users to logoff or use
SHUTDOWN IMMEDIATE
. -
Cause: The
SHUTDOWN IMMEDIATE
command was used to shut down a running Oracle instance, terminating any active operations. -
Action: Wait for the instance to be restarted or contact the database administrator.
-
Cause: The
SHUTDOWN
command was used to shut down a running Oracle instance, disallowing any connects to Oracle. -
Action: Wait for the instance to restart or contact the database administrator.
-
Cause: Unable to destroy the old SGA.
-
Action: Manually remove the old SGA. See your operating system-specific Oracle documentation for instructions. Then retry the STARTUP command.
-
Cause: The instance connected to was terminated abnormally, probably due to a
SHUTDOWN ABORT
. The current process was forced to disconnect from the instance. -
Action: Examine the alert log for more details. Contact the database administrator to determine when the instance is restarted. Attempt to reconnect after the instance is running again.
-
Cause: There is at least one more session, other than the current one, logged in to the instance.
ALTER DATABASE CLOSE
is not permitted when other sessions are active. -
Action: Find the other sessions and disconnect them. Then reissue the
ALTER DATABASE CLOSE
statement. Also, issue theSHUTDOWN IMMEDIATE
command to force users off the system, or issue theSHUTDOWN ABORT
command to shut down the database without waiting for users to be forced off. -
Cause: An attempt was made to connect while the database is being closed with the
ALTER DATABASE CLOSE
statement. -
Action: Attempt to connect again when the database is open. Contact the database administrator to find out when the database will be open.
-
Cause: A DML cursor from the OTEX() call processed 0 rows when executed.
-
Action: Caller can either do a rollback or ignore the message and execute the rest of the cursors in the cursor array.
-
Cause: The program was linked with a different version of the server than the instance to which it is attempting to connect.
-
Action: Relink the program against the same version of Oracle as the instance or restart (startup force) the database using the program's version of the SERVER.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to shut down the database while a transaction was in progress.
-
Action: Either commit or rollback the current transaction and then attempt to shut down the database.
-
Cause: The application program interface could not insert or update a LONG column because of an internal error when a TTCGETV call fails. For example, a network read error or one of the parameters passed to the call is invalid.
-
Action: Retry the insert or update.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to mount a database in parallel mode with the initialization parameter SINGLE_PROCESS set to TRUE.
-
Action: Either mount the database in EXCLUSIVE mode or set the initialization parameter SINGLE_PROCESS to FALSE before starting the instance in parallel (shared) mode.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to mount a database with the name of a currently mounted database.
-
Action: No action is required.
-
Cause: Some other instance has the database of same name currently mounted and you are trying to create it.
-
Action: Either change the database name or shut down the other instance.
-
Cause: Some other instance has the database mounted exclusive or shared.
-
Action: Shut down the other instance or mount in a compatible mode.
-
Cause: The database name in the control file does not match your database name.
-
Action: Either find the correct control file or change your database name.
-
Cause: The number of control files used by this instance disagrees with the number of control files in an existing instance.
-
Action: Check to make sure that all control files are listed.
-
Cause: An attempt to mount the database discovered that another instance mounted a database by the same name, but the mount is not compatible. Additional errors are reported explaining why.
-
Action: See accompanying errors.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to dismount a database before it was closed.
-
Action: Close the database, then retry the operation.
-
Cause: An attempt to perform media recovery was made but the database is not mounted.
-
Action: Mount the database.
-
Cause: Either media recovery is actively being applied to the file, or it is being backed up while the database is in NOARCHIVELOG mode. It cannot be used for normal database access or crash recovery.
-
Action: Complete or cancel the media recovery session or backup.
-
Cause: A command was attempted that requires the database to be open.
-
Action: Open the database and try the command again.
-
Cause: This message reports the file name involved with other messages.
-
Action: See the associated messages for a description of the problem.
-
Cause: The datafile was missing from a CREATE CONTROLFILE command or BACKUP CONTROLFILE RECOVERY was done with a control file that was saved before the file was created.
-
Action: Rename the MISSING file to the name of the real file.
-
Cause: An attempt to continue media recovery is being made but media recovery was not started.
-
Action: No action is required.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to open a datafile that is in need of media recovery.
-
Action: First apply media recovery to the datafile identified in the message, then retry the operation.
-
Cause: The device on which the file resides is probably offline. If the file is a temporary file, then it is also possible that the device has run out of space. This could happen because disk space of temporary files is not necessarily allocated at file creation time.
-
Action: Restore access to the device or remove unnecessary files to free up space.
-
Cause: The device on which the file resides is probably off line.
-
Action: Restore access to the device, then retry the operation.
-
Cause: Usually the file is not accessible.
-
Action: Make sure the datafile is in the expected location and can be accessed properly, then retry the operation.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to add a datafile with a block size that is greater than the maximum block size allowed.
-
Action: Retry the operation with a smaller block size.
-
Cause: An attempt to add a datafile failed because the limit for such files had already been reached.
-
Action: If more database space is required, export the database and re-create it with a higher limit for datafiles and perhaps increased file size.
-
Cause: Insufficient space on device.
-
Action: Decrease the size of the requested file or allocate a file on another device with more available space. If a file size was not specified in the statement, then specify a file size smaller than the available space on the device.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to drop a datafile when it is online.
-
Action: Take file offline before dropping.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to use
ALTER DATABASE RENAME
to rename a datafile that is online in an open instance or is being recovered. -
Action: Close database in all instances and end all recovery sessions.
-
Cause: The information in this file is inconsistent with information from the control file. See accompanying message for reason.
-
Action: Make certain that the database files and control files are the correct files for this database.
-
Cause: An attempt to start backup of an online tablespace failed because media recovery is not enabled.
-
Action: Enable media recovery and retry this operation.
-
Cause: An attempt to do media recovery found that the file was not available for recovery. Either it is online and the database is open in some instance, or another process is currently doing media recovery on the file.
-
Action: Do not do media recovery.
-
Cause: An attempt to disable media recovery found that an online backup is still in progress.
-
Action: End the backup of the offending tablespace and retry this command.
-
Cause: An operation failed because the database was not mounted in exclusive mode.
-
Action: Shut down Oracle and mount the database in exclusive mode.
-
Cause: The specified database name is too long.
-
Action: Shorten the database name to eight characters or fewer, then retry the operation.
-
Cause: An attempt to start an online backup found that one of the files is offline.
-
Action: Bring the offending files online and retry this command or do a cold backup.
-
Cause: The user's default or temporary tablespace was dropped.
-
Action: Reassign the default or temporary tablespace.
-
Cause: The named datafile was created under an incompatible version of Oracle, or the file is invalid or non-existent.
-
Action: Shut down and restart the correct version of Oracle or check the references to the datafile and make sure it exists.
-
Cause: The specified value of the initialization parameter DB_FILES is too large.
-
Action: Reduce the value of the DB_FILES parameter and retry the operation.
-
Cause: The specified datafile name is too long.
-
Action: Shorten the file name and retry the operation.
-
Cause: The specified redo log file name is too long.
-
Action: Shorten the file name and retry the operation.
-
Cause: An attempt to access a database failed because it is mounted in exclusive mode by another instance.
-
Action: Either shut down the other instance or wait for the other instance to either close the database or mount it in parallel mode, before retrying the operation.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to access a datafile that is offline.
-
Action: Bring the datafile back online.
-
Cause: A file size was specified in the
AS
clause of theALTER DATABASE CREATE DATAFILE
statement, and the size was smaller than the size needed. -
Action: Create the file with a larger size.
-
Cause: It was not possible to get the lock for a file that is offline when attempting to bring it online. The most likely cause is that the lock is still held by the instance that is took it offline.
-
Action: Wait for the other instance to release the lock on the file.
-
Cause: The requested operation cannot be done when the database is mounted but not open in this instance, and another instance has the database open.
-
Action: Execute the operation in an open instance, open the database in this instance, or close the database in the other instances.
-
Cause: The
RESETLOGS
option was given inALTER DATABASE OPEN
, but there has been no incomplete recovery session. -
Action: Reissue the
ALTER DATABASE OPEN
statement without specifying'
. -
Cause: All the files were found to be offline when attempting to end an online backup.
-
Action: No action required. Online backup does not need to be ended for this tablespace.
-
Cause: An attempt to change a datafile's name in the control file failed because no file was found with the new name.
-
Action: Make sure that the datafile has been properly renamed by the operating system and retry.
-
Cause: None of the files were found to be in online backup when attempting to end an online backup.
-
Action: No action required. Online backup does not need to be ended for this tablespace.
-
Cause: An attempt to disable media recovery found a file that needs media recovery, thus media recovery cannot be disabled.
-
Action: Recover the offending file or drop the tablespace it belongs to and retry this command.
-
Cause: Specified file size is larger than maximum allowable size value.
-
Action: Specify a smaller size.
-
Cause:
ALTER TABLESPACE ... OFFLINE IMMEDIATE
orALTER DATABASE DATAFILE ... OFFLINE
is only allowed if the database is inARCHIVELOG
mode. -
Action: Take the tablespace offline as usual or do a shutdown abort before attempting the required operation. It is worthwhile reconsidering the backup strategy for the database. The attempted operations can be done if ARCHIVEREDO LOG mode is enabled.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to start an online backup, but an online backup was already started for one of the datafiles.
-
Action: End the first backup before beginning another.
-
Cause: A file belonging to the SYSTEM tablespace has been marked offline by the database administrator. The database cannot be started until all SYSTEM tablespace files are online and can be opened.
-
Action: Bring the file online.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to mount the database PARALLEL without the existence of a Lock Manager.
-
Action: Mount the database in EXCLUSIVE mode.
-
Cause: An attempt to shut down normally found that an online backup is still in progress.
-
Action: End the backup of the offending tablespace and retry this command.
-
Cause: Tablespace cannot be taken offline or made read-only when online backup is running. Ending the backup entails writing the file header, which this operation, were it permitted, would prevent.
-
Action: End the online backup and then take the tablespace offline or make it read-only.
-
Cause: Crash recovery or instance recovery could not apply a change to a block because it was not the next change. This can happen if the block was corrupted and then repaired during recovery. This message is usually accompanied by ORA-01172.
-
Action: There is additional information for ORA-01172. Perform a RECOVER datafile for the file containing the block. If this does not resolve the problem, restore the file from a backup and recover it again.
-
Cause: An incomplete recovery session was started, but an insufficient number of redo logs were applied to make the database consistent. This file is still in the future of the last redo log applied. The most likely cause of this message is forgetting to restore the file from backup before doing incomplete recovery.
-
Action: Apply additional redo log files until the database is consistent or restore the datafiles from an older backup and repeat recovery.
-
Cause: Attempted to start an incompatible media recovery or open resetlogs during media recovery or RMAN backup . Media recovery sessions are incompatible if they attempt to recover the same data file. Incomplete media recovery or open resetlogs is incompatible with any media recovery. Backup or restore by RMAN is incompatible with open resetlogs.
-
Action: Complete or cancel the other media recovery session or RMAN backup.
-
Cause: Some operation is in progress that expects the state of the instance to remain open or mounted.
-
Action: Wait for the operation to complete and try again. If attempting a normal database shutdown, try
SHUTDOWN ABORT
. -
Cause: The attempted operation will not succeed while the instance is in one of the states mentioned in the message.
-
Action: Wait for the open, close, mount, or dismount to complete and try again. If attempting a normal database shutdown, try
SHUTDOWN ABORT
. -
Cause: Either media or instance recovery is in progress. The recovery may need access to the files that the attempted operation tried to use.
-
Action: Wait for the recovery to complete and try again.
-
Cause: The background process was either unable to find one of the data files or failed to lock it because the file was already in use. The database will prohibit access to this file but other files will be unaffected. However, the first instance to open the database will need to access all online data files. The accompanying error from the operating system describes why the file could not be identified.
-
Action: At the operating system level, make the file available to the database. Then either open the database or do an ALTER SYSTEM CHECK DATAFILES.
-
Cause: Another instance has a database by this name mounted.
-
Action: Find which instance is still running. Perhaps you have not lost the control files after all.
-
Cause: Not all of the files specified in CREATE CONTROLFILE are from the same database. The database ID of this file does not match that from the first file specified.
-
Action: Check the list of files provided to the CREATE.
-
Cause: The named file in the DATAFILE or LOGFILE section of the CREATE CONTROLFILE command does not appear to be as stated.
-
Action: Check the mentioned file.
-
Cause: The database name given at the command line does not match the database name found in the file header.
-
Action: Chance are good that the database name specified at the command line is incorrect. Resolve the discrepancy, and resubmit the command. If you are attempting to change the database name, be sure to use the SET DATABASE option.
-
Cause: CREATE CONTROLFILE discovered that the block size for this file is incompatible with any of the configured cache blocksizes in the initialization parameter file.
-
Action: Configure the appropriate cache for this block size using one of the (DB_2K_cache_size, DB_4K_cache_size, DB_8K_cache_size, DB_16K_cache_size, DB_32K_cache_size) parameters.
-
Cause: The size specified in bytes in the SIZE clause of the CREATE CONTROLFILE statement does not equate to the number of blocks recorded in the header.
-
Action: Specify the correct file name and size (in bytes).
-
Cause: MAXLOGFILES specified on the command line too large.
-
Action: Resubmit the command with a smaller value for MAXLOGFILES.
-
Cause: MAXDATAFILES specified on the command line too large.
-
Action: Resubmit the command with a smaller value for MAXDATAFILES.
-
Cause: File mentioned in CREATE CONTROLFILE has a file number which is larger than that specified for MAXDATAFILES or MAXLOGFILES.
-
Action: Increase the maximum specified on the command line.
-
Cause: There is an overlap of file numbers in the files specified on the command line or the same file is specified twice. If they are not the exact same file then one is likely to be a backup of the other. If they are two members of the same log they must be specified together in a group file specification. This message will also appear if the same control file appears more than once in the CONTROL_FILES parameter in the INIT.ORA file. If this happens, check for additional error messages.
-
Action: Confirm that the file mentioned is not a repeat of a file already mentioned in the command. If they are different files then omit the earlier backup. If they are members of the same log, insure they are in the same group file specification. If this message appears because of a duplicate control file, check the CONTROL_FILES parameter in the INIT.ORA file and see if a file is specified more than once. If all files names appear to be unique, check to make sure that the actual control files themselves are unique. For example, in UNIX check for a symbolic or a hard link to another control file in the list.
-
Cause: The file is located on a device with a different physical block size than the other members in the group.
-
Action: Use a physical device with matching block size.
-
Cause: Datafile number 1 was not specified in a CREATE CONTROLFILE command.
-
Action: Locate datafile number 1 and resubmit the CREATE CONTROLFILE command.
-
Cause: A file specified in the CREATE CONTROLFILE statement was not found. All datafiles and all redo log files, if NORESETLOGS was used, must be accessible by the process that issues the CREATE CONTROLFILE statement.
-
Action: Check the statement for a typing mistake in the file name and check for the existence of all files. Then issue the statement again after correcting the file names.
-
Cause: The checkpoint in the file header could not be advanced. See accompanying errors for the reason. The datafile will be taken offline the same as for a write error of a data block.
-
Action: See accompanying errors for details. Restore access to the file, do media recovery, and bring it back online.
-
Cause: Crash recovery or instance recovery could not apply a change to a block because it was not the next change. This can happen if the block was corrupted and then repaired during recovery.
-
Action: Do a RECOVER DATAFILE for the file containing the block. If this does not resolve the problem, then restore the file from a backup and recover it.
-
Cause: One of the following:
-
Action: One of the following:
-
Cause: The maximum number of database files supported by this instance is not the same as for the other instances. All instances must be able to open all the files any instance can open.
-
Action: Change the value of the DB_FILES parameter to be compatible.
-
Cause: The data dictionary is found to have more files than that which can be supported by this instance.
-
Action: Shut down the instance and restart with a larger value for DB_FILES.
-
Cause: After a CREATE CONTROLFILE, the data dictionary was found to have more datafiles than that supported by the control file.
-
Action: Re-create the control file with a larger value for MAXDATAFILES.
-
Cause: When comparing the control file with the data dictionary after a CREATE CONTROLFILE or OPEN RESETLOGS, it was noted that this datafile was inconsistent with the dictionary. Most likely the file is a backup of a file that was dropped from the database, and the same file number was reused for a new file. It may also be that an incomplete recovery stopped at a time when this file number was used for another datafile.
-
Action: Do a CREATE CONTROLFILE with the correct file or none at all.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to use
ALTER DATABASE CREATE DATAFILE
to re-create a datafile that existed at the lastCREATE CONTROL
file command. The information needed to re-create the file was lost with the control file that existed when the file was added to the database. -
Action: Find a backup of the file, and recover it. Do incomplete recovery to time before file was originally created.
-
Cause: During datafile recovery, a file was listed that was not part of the database.
-
Action: Recheck the file name. Remember to use single quotation marks at the SQL*DBA command line. Remember also that the file name is translated in the operating environment of SQL*DBA.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to create datafile 1 using
ALTER DATABASE CREATE DATAFILE
. -
Action: Recover file from a backup or re-create the database.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to use
ALTER DATABASE CREATE DATAFILE
to re-create a datafile that existed at the lastRESETLOGS
database open. -
Action: Find a backup of the file, and recover it. Do incomplete recovery to time before file was originally created.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to use
ALTER DATABASE CREATE DATAFILE
to re-create a datafile that is online in an open instance or is being recovered. -
Action: Close database in all instances and end all recovery sessions.
-
Cause: Some other instance has the database mounted exclusive.
-
Action: Shut down the other instance and then mount shared.
-
Cause: An
ALTER DATABASE ADD LOGFILE
statement specified a log number for the new log which is already in use. -
Action: Specify a different log file number, or let the database choose an unused value.
-
Cause: An
ALTER DATABASE ADD LOGFILE
statement specified a log number for the new log which is too large. -
Action: Specify a correct log file number.
-
Cause: The datafile did not pass the checks to insure it is part of the database. See the accompanying error messages for the reason the verification failed.
-
Action: Make the correct file available to the database. Then, either open the database, or execute ALTER SYSTEM CHECK DATAFILES.
-
Cause: The datafile did not pass the checks to insure it is part of the database. Reads are not allowed until it is verified.
-
Action: Make the correct file available to the database. Then, either open the database, or execute ALTER SYSTEM CHECK DATAFILES.
-
Cause: A log file member given to CREATE CONTROLFILE is on a physical device that has a different block size than the device originally used to create the log.
-
Action: Move the file to a device with the correct block size or use the RESETLOGS option to CREATE CONTROLFILE.
-
Cause: In a CREATE CONTROLFILE command, either this file or all previous files were backups from before the last RESETLOGS. This may also occur if this is a file that is offline and has been offline since before the last RESETLOGS.
-
Action: If the file was taken offline normal before the last RESETLOGS, and is still offline, omit it from the CREATE CONTROLFILE command. Rename and online the file after the database is open. Otherwise find the version of the mentioned file consistent with the rest of the datafiles and resubmit the command.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to use a datafile when the log reset information in the file does not match the control file. Either the datafile or the control file is a backup that was made before the most recent
ALTER DATABASE OPEN RESETLOGS
. -
Action: Restore file from a more recent backup.
-
Cause: When attempting to do a normal tablespace offline, it was discovered that one of the files in the tablespace was already offline.
-
Action: Either bring the datafile online first, or use another tablespace offline option.
-
Cause: At least two redo log files from at least one thread must be specified in the CREATE CONTROLFILE command line.
-
Action: Find the missing redo log files and retry the command with the newly found redo log files included in the command line.
-
Cause: A different copy of the file was accessed the last time media recovery looked at the file header. A backup of the file was restored or the meaning of the file name changed during recovery.
-
Action: Ensure the correct file is available, and then retry recovery.
-
Cause: An incomplete recovery session was started, but an insufficient number of logs were applied to make the file consistent. The reported file was not closed cleanly when it was last opened by the database. It must be recovered to a time when it was not being updated. The most likely cause of this error is forgetting to restore the file from a backup before doing incomplete recovery.
-
Action: Either apply more logs until the file is consistent or restore the file from an older backup and repeat recovery.
-
Cause: An incomplete recovery session was started, but an insufficient number of logs were applied to make the file consistent. The reported file is an online backup which must be recovered to the time the backup ended.
-
Action: Either apply more logs until the file is consistent or restore the database files from an older backup and repeat recovery.
-
Cause: The file was being recovered but the recovery did not terminate normally. This left the file in an inconsistent state. No more recovery was successfully completed on this file.
-
Action: Either apply more logs until the file is consistent or restore the backup again and repeat recovery.
-
Cause: During CREATE CONTROLFILE all threads represented in the logs must be represented by at least two logs. A "last log" and a second log. The named thread does not contain two such logs.
-
Action: Either find more logs from the named thread. Or use the RESETLOGS option to CREATE CONTROLFILE.
-
Cause: File sizes must be given for all log files if doing a CREATE CONTROLFILE with the RESETLOGS option.
-
Action: Resubmit the command with the appropriate log file size.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to end an online backup for a file that is not in online backup.
-
Action: Do not enter command since it is not needed.
-
Cause: The size of the file as returned by the operating system is smaller than the size of the file as indicated in the file header and the control file. Somehow the file has been truncated. Maybe it is the result of a half completed copy.
-
Action: Restore a good copy of the datafile and do recovery as needed.
-
Cause: An I/O error was reported for the file header. The error was trapped and a second attempt will be made.
-
Action: The file probably will require recovery. Further error messages will indicate what is needed.
-
Cause: The creation time in the file header is not the same as the creation time in the control file. This is probably a copy of a file that was dropped.
-
Action: Restore a current copy of the datafile and do recovery as needed.
-
Cause: The creation SCN in the file header is not the same as the creation SCN in the control file. This is probably a copy of a file that was dropped.
-
Action: Restore a current copy of the datafile and do recovery as needed.
-
Cause: The file number in the file header is not correct. This is probably a restored backup of the wrong file, but from the same database.
-
Action: Restore a copy of the correct datafile and do recovery as needed.
-
Cause: The file type in the header is not correct for a datafile. This is probably a log file or control file. If the type is not a small non-zero positive number then the header is corrupted.
-
Action: Restore a copy of the correct datafile and do recovery as needed.
-
Cause: The database ID in the file header does not match the database ID in the control file. The file may be from a different database, or it may not be a database file at all. If the database was rebuilt, this may be a file from before the rebuild. Note that if you see this error when the file is supposed to be plugged in from another database via the Transportable Tablespace feature, it means the database ID in the file header does not match the one expected.
-
Action: Restore a copy of the correct datafile and do recovery as needed.
-
Cause: The control file change sequence number in the datafile is greater than the number in the control file. This implies that the wrong control file is being used. Note that repeatedly causing this error can make it stop happening without correcting the real problem. Every attempt to open the database will advance the control file change sequence number until it is great enough.
-
Action: Use the current control file or do BACKUP CONTROLFILE RECOVERY to make the control file current. Be sure to follow all restrictions on doing a BACKUP CONTROLFILE RECOVERY.
-
Cause: The checkpoint in the file header is less recent than in the control file. If opening a database that is already open by another instance, or if another instance just brought this file online, the file accessed by this instance is probably a different version. Otherwise, a backup of the file probably was restored while the file was in use.
-
Action: Make the correct file available to the database. Then, either open the database, or execute ALTER SYSTEM CHECK DATAFILES.
-
Cause: The reset log data in the file header does not match the control file. If the database is closed or the file is offline, the backup is old because it was taken before the last
ALTER DATABASE OPEN RESETLOGS
statement. If opening a database that is open already by another instance, or if another instance just brought this file online, the file accessed by this instance is probably a different version. Otherwise, a backup of the file probably was restored while the file was in use. -
Action: Make the correct file available to the database. Then, either open the database or execute ALTER SYSTEM CHECK DATAFILES.
-
Cause: The file header block is internally inconsistent. The beginning of the block has a header with a checksum and other data for insuring the consistency of the block. It is possible that the last disk write did not operate correctly. The most likely problem is that this is not a datafile for any database.
-
Action: Have operating system make correct file available to database. If the trace file dump indicates that only the checksum is wrong, restore from a backup and do media recovery.
-
Cause: The file is not a copy of the file LAST used under Oracle7. This datafile is either a backup taken from before the migration, or the database was opened by Oracle7 after the migration utility was run. When converting a database from Oracle7 to Oracle8, the migration program MUST be the LAST utility to access the database under Oracle7. Only the datafiles that were current when the migration was done may be accessed by Oracle8.
-
Action: Have operating system make correct datafile available to database, or repeat the Oracle7 to Oracle8 migration. Make sure that database is NOT opened after migration utility is run.
-
Cause: MAXLOGMEMBERS specified on the command line too large.
-
Action: Resubmit the command with a smaller value for MAXLOGMEMBERS.
-
Cause: MAXINSTANCES specified on the command line too large.
-
Action: Resubmit the command with a smaller value for MAXINSTANCES.
-
Cause: MAXLOGHISTORY specified on the command line too large.
-
Action: Resubmit the command with a smaller value for MAXLOGHISTORY.
-
Cause: A CREATE CONTROLFILE statement was given which did not list all the enabled threads for the database.
-
Action: Reissue the CREATE CONTROLFILE statement, including all enabled threads.
-
Cause: A thread that was given during CREATE CONTROLFILE is enabled, but the datafiles indicate that it should be disabled. This is probably because the logs supplied to the CREATE CONTROLFILE are old (from before the disabling of the thread).
-
Action: This thread is not required to run the database. The CREATE CONTROLFILE statement can be reissued without the problem thread, and, if desired, the thread can be re-created after the database is open.
-
Cause: A member of a multiple-member log file group specified in a CREATE CONTROLFILE is not part of the same group as previous members.
-
Action: Group together the correct members for the CREATE CONTROLFILE command.
-
Cause: A member of a multiple-member log file group is from a different point in time. One of the members specified may be an older (backup) copy of the log.
-
Action: Find the correct version of the log, or leave it out of the CREATE CONTROLFILE command.
-
Cause: A query was issued against an object not recognized as a fixed table or fixed view before the database has been opened.
-
Action: Re-phrase the query to include only fixed objects, or open the database.
-
Cause: A query issued against a fixed table or view required a temporary segment for sorting before the database was open. Only in-memory sorts are supported before the database is open.
-
Action: Re-phrase the query to avoid a large sort, increase the values of the SORT_AREA_SIZE and/or SORT_AREA_RETAINED_SIZE initialization parameters to enable the sort to be done in memory.
-
Cause: When the database writer opens the datafile, it is accessing a different physical file than the foreground doing the recovery. The timestamp set in the file header by the foreground was not found by the background. It may be that the background process could not read the file at all.
-
Action: Look in the DBWR trace file for the error it received when attempting to read the file header. Reconfigure the operating system as needed to have the file name successfully access the same file when opened by a background process.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to create a database or control file that does not have room for at least two logs per thread of redo. A thread of redo must have two online logs in order to be enabled. It does not make sense to allow more redo threads than can be supported by the logs.
-
Action: Either reduce the MAXINSTANCES argument or increase the value of MAXLOGFILES.
-
Cause: The SET database name option was specified to CREATE CONTROLFILE, but RESETLOGS was not specified. The database name can only be changed when opening the database with RESETLOGS.
-
Action: Either add the RESETLOGS option or drop the SET option to CREATE CONTROLFILE.
-
Cause: Group number specified at CREATE CONTROLFILE does not match the group number stored in the header. Most likely the specification is wrong.
-
Action: Omit the GROUP option or give the correct one.
-
Cause: The log is for a thread greater than the MAXINSTANCES argument.
-
Action: Increase the value for MAXINSTANCES and resubmit the command.
-
Cause: The log file member in the accompanying error is for the same group as the previous members, but other fields in the header are different. Either a file header is corrupted, or some file is a member of a deleted log.
-
Action: Find the correct log member or omit this member from the command.
-
Cause: The log file in the accompanying error is inconsistent with the contents of other logs given in the CREATE CONTROLFILE command. Either a file header is corrupted, or some file is an old copy rather than the current version. The problem may not be with the log listed since all that can be detected is that there is an inconsistency. All log files listed in the command must be the current versions of the online logs.
-
Action: Find the correct online logs or use the RESETLOGS option.
-
Cause: The SET DATABASE option was not included in the CREATE CONTROLFILE command when installing a seed database. The database does not have a database ID because it is intended to be installed at multiple sites, and each site needs to be a different database with its own database id. Both the SET DATABASE and RESETLOGS options must be specified to create the control file for this database.
-
Action: Resubmit command with the SET DATABASE and RESETLOGS options.
-
Cause: The datafile in the accompanying error is inconsistent with the contents of the logs given in the CREATE CONTROLFILE command. The most likely cause is that one or more of the online logs was missing from the command. It is also possible that one or more of the logs is an old copy rather than the current version. All online log files must be listed in the command and must be the current versions of the online logs.
-
Action: Find the correct online logs or use the RESETLOGS option.
-
Cause: An attempt to make a tablespace read only found that one of its files is offline.
-
Action: Bring the file online and retry this command.
-
Cause: An attempt to make a tablespace read write found that one of its files is offline.
-
Action: Bring the file online and retry this command.
-
Cause: An attempt to start an online backup found that one of the files is marked read only. Read-only files do not need to be set into online backup mode.
-
Action: Make the backup without the begin backup command.
-
Cause: An attempt to do media recovery using a backup control file found that one of the files is marked read only. Read-only files do not normally need to be recovered, but recovery with a backup control file must recover all online files.
-
Action: If the file really is read only, take it offline before the recovery, and bring the read-only tablespace online after the database is open. If the file does need recovery use a control file from the time the file was read-write. If the correct control file is not available, use CREATE CONTROLFILE to make one.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to end an online backup of file when the file is busy. Some operation such as recovery or rename may be active, or there may still be some instance that has the database open with this file online.
-
Action: If there is an instance with the database open then the backup can be ended there by using the ALTER TABLESPACE command. Otherwise wait for the completion of the other operation.
-
Cause: One or more of the files in an end backup command failed. Some other files given in the same command may have succeeded.
-
Action: See the accompanying error messages for the reason the backups could not be ended. Any files not listed in the error messages were successful.
-
Cause: The indicated error occurred while doing initialization processing of file headers.
-
Action: The error indicated should be corrected. An attempt is made to recover from this error by using a slower access algorithm.
-
Cause: An operating system error occurred during the resize.
-
Action: Fix the cause of the operating system error and retry the command.
-
Cause: An operating system error occurred during the resize.
-
Action: The error is ignored, operation continues normally.
-
Cause: An online file uses an external cache, but the database is in NOARCHIVELOG mode. Since an external cache may require media recovery this cannot be allowed.
-
Action: Change database to be in ARCHIVELOG mode or do not use an external cache.
-
Cause: The command specifies adding more datafiles than can be done in one command. It is necessary to fit all the file names into one log entry, but that would make the entry too large.
-
Action: If this is a CREATE TABLESPACE command, create with fewer files then add the other files later. If this is an ADD DATAFILE command, break it up into multiple commands.
-
Cause: The external cache may have been restarted.
-
Action: Take the file mentioned in the error stack offline, perform media recovery, bring the file online, and retry the attempted operation. You may also restart all instances to make sure they access all datafiles through consistent external caches.
-
Cause: The database is in NOARCHIVELOG mode and a database file was detected as inaccessible due to media failure.
-
Action: Restore accessibility to the file mentioned in the error stack and restart the instance.
-
Cause: A system tablespace file was detected as inaccessible due to media failure.
-
Action: Restore accessibility to the file mentioned in the error stack and restart the instance.
-
Cause: Media recovery with a backup control file or a control file that was rebuilt, encountered the creation of a datafile that was not in the control file. An entry has been added to the control file for the new datafiles, but with the file name UNNAMEDnnnn, where nnnn is the file number. Attached errors describe the file names that were originally used to create the files.
-
Action: Rename the files to valid file names and resume recovery. If necessary the
ALTER DATABASE CREATE DATAFILE
statement may be used to create a file suitable for recovery and do the rename. If the file is not going to be recovered then take it offline with the FOR DROP option. -
Cause: An attempt was made to do an OPEN RESETLOGS with a file that will be lost because it is offline. The file was not taken offline with the FOR DROP option.
-
Action: Either bring the file online and recover it, or take it offline with the FOR DROP option.
-
Cause: The files named in the accompanying errors are backups that were made before a tablespace point in time recovery of this tablespace. They cannot be recovered to a time after the point in time recovery.
-
Action: Restore more recent backups and recover them.
-
Cause: Recovery of the whole database encountered redo indicating there was a point in time recovery of the tablespace. The new version of the files in the tablespace should be included in the recovery, but that was not done.
-
Action: If the tablespace should not be recovered, take its file offline for drop. If it should be recovered, then restore or rename as needed and restart the recovery.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to do a RESETLOGS open with a file entry in the control file that was originally created after the UNTIL time of the incomplete recovery. Allowing such an entry may hide the version of the file that is needed at this time. The file number may be in use for a different file which would be lost if the RESETLOGS was allowed.
-
Action: If more recovery is desired then apply redo until the creation time of the file is reached. If the file is not wanted and the same file number is not in use at the stop time of the recovery, then the file can be taken offline with the FOR DROP option. Otherwise a different control file is needed to allow the RESETLOGS. Another backup can be restored and recovered, or a control file can be created via CREATE CONTROLFILE.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to archive an online redo log or enable archiving for a clone database.
-
Action: Do not attempt to archive from a clone. The archive log destination could easily be the same as the primary database destroying its archived logs. If archiving is needed, then re-create the database not as a clone.
-
Cause: The indicated error occurred while terminating the processing of file headers. The error was other than a write error.
-
Action: The indicated error should be corrected.
-
Cause: Read of the file header returned a record but its version cannot be identified. Either the header has been corrupted, or the file is not a valid database file.
-
Action: Have the operating system make the correct file available to the database, or recover the file.
-
Cause: An attempt to make a tablespace read only or offline normal found that a recovery manager proxy backup is in progress. If the file is made offline or read only, then the file header cannot be updated when the backup is complete.
-
Action: Wait for the Recovery Manager backup to complete and retry this command.
-
Cause: The specified file is being backed up by Recovery Manager.
-
Action: Wait for the Recovery Manager proxy backup to complete before starting another backup.
-
Cause: The specified file is being backed up by Recovery Manager.
-
Action: Wait for the Recovery Manager proxy backup to complete. Recovery Manager backup mode cannot be initiated or terminated manually.
-
Cause: An attempt to shut down normally found that a Recovery Manager backup is still in progress.
-
Action: Wait for the Recovery Manager proxy backup to complete and retry this command.
-
Cause: The file is in use by another database instance.
-
Action: Determine which database instance legitimately owns the file.
-
Cause: The size of the raw partion cannot be determined.
-
Action: Add the datafile/logfile by specifying the size parameter.
-
Cause: A DROP TABLESPACE INCLUDING CONTENTS AND DATAFILES or ALTER DATABASE TEMPFILE DROP INCLUDING DATAFILES operation was not able to delete a temporary file in the database.
-
Action: Subsequent errors describe the operating system error that prevented the file deletion. Fix the problem, if possible, and manually purge the file.
-
Cause: A DROP TABLESPACE INCLUDING CONTENTS AND DATAFILES operation was not able to delete a datafile in the tablespace.
-
Action: Subsequent errors describe the operating system error that prevented the file deletion. Fix the problem, if possible, and manually purge the file.
-
Cause: ALTER DATABASE END BACKUP was issued while the database was open.
-
Action: Either use ALTER DATABASE DATAFILE <filename> END BACKUP to end backup for specific files, or ALTER TABLESPACE <name> END BACKUP if backup is complete for all files in a tablespace.
-
Cause: The value for the specified parameter contained a destination string that could not be translated.
-
Action: Use a valid destination string in the specified parameter.
-
Cause: Unable to get information about an Oracle Managed Files destination directory.
-
Action: Check the permissions on the directory or use a different directory name.
-
Cause: The name given for an Oracle Managed Files destination does not correspond to a directory.
-
Action: Use a different name.
-
Cause: Unable to create an Oracle Managed Files name for a datafile, logfile or control file.
-
Action: Check previous error messages for the reason Oracle was unable to create the file name. Take corrective action, if possible, and retry the command.
-
Cause: An error prevented the file from being deleted.
-
Action: Subsequent errors describe the operating system error that prevented the file deletion. Fix the problem, if possible, and manually purge the file.
-
Cause: Unable to create a unique file name for an Oracle Managed Files datafile, logfile, or control file. Oracle tried several names but each file name was already in use in the default destination directory for the file type.
-
Action: Retry the operation. If that fails, it may be necessary to change the default destination directory for the file type and then retry.
-
Cause: Could not get date/time when trying to create unique file name.
-
Action: Internal error - contact Oracle Support Services.
-
Cause: A TEMPFILE clause was specified for an ALTER TABLESPACE for a permanent tablespace.
-
Action: Retry with a DATAFILE clause.
-
Cause: The value for DB_CREATE_FILE_DEST or DB_CREATE_ONLINE_LOG_DEST_n parameter is too long.
-
Action: Replace the destination value for the specified parameter with a shorter character string.
-
Cause: An operation that renames or adds/drops a file was attempted at a standby database and STANDBY_PRESERVES_NAMES is true.
-
Action: Set STANDBY_PRESERVES_NAMES to false if the operation must be performed.
-
Cause: During standby database recovery an error occurred when trying to create a new file name for the indicated file.
-
Action: Use the ALTER DATABASE CREATE DATAFILE command with a new unique name and then resume the standby database recovery.
-
Cause: The REUSE parameter was specified in a command without a file name.
-
Action: Either supply a file name or remove the REUSE parameter.
-
Cause: The
COMPATIBLE
initialization parameter was not set to the correct value for settingSTANDBY_FILE_MANAGEMENT
toAUTO
. -
Action: Restart the instance with
COMPATIBLE
set to the correct release. -
Cause: Automated standby file management was enabled but an added file could not automatically be created on the standby. The error from the creation attempt is displayed in another message. The controlfile file entry for the file will be 'UNNAMEDnnnnn'.
-
Action: Temporarily set
STANDBY_FILE_MANAGEMENT
toMANUAL
and use theALTER DATABASE CREATE DATAFILE
statement to create the file. Then setSTANDBY_FILE_MANAGEMENT
toAUTO
and restart standby recovery. -
Cause: An operation that renames, adds, or drops a file was attempted at a standby database and
STANDBY_FILE_MANAGEMENT
was set toAUTO
. -
Action: Set
STANDBY_FILE_MANAGEMENT
toMANUAL
if the operation must be performed. -
Cause: An attempt was made to add to the database a datafile, log file, or control file with an Oracle Managed Files file name.
-
Action: Retry the operation with a new file name.
-
Cause: An
ALTER DATABASE BACKUP CONTROLFILE TO TRACE AS '
filename' statement specified a file name which is already in use. -
Action: Either specify a different file name or add the
REUSE
parameter to the statement to overwrite the existing file. -
Cause: An operating system error occurred while attempting to create a trace file specified in the
ALTER DATABASE BACKUP CONTROLFILE TO TRACE AS '
filename' statement. -
Action: Check the error stack for more detailed information.
-
Cause:
DB_FILES
has been set too high to be supported by the system. -
Action: Decrease the value of
DB_FILES
. -
Cause: On of the following:
- One or more input parameters in the DBMS_LOGMNR.START_LOGMNR() procedure may be invalid.
- The start or the end SCN may not be available in the log files selected.
- The dictionary file specified may be from a different database than the one that generated the log files.
- LogMiner may have encountered an internal error from which it cannot recover.
-
Action: Check to see whether the input parameters are valid. The V$LOGMNR_LOGS view can be queried to see the SCN ranges that are valid for the set of log files specified, and the DB_ID of the database that generated the log files.
-
Cause: StartSCN may be greater than EndSCN, or the SCN specified may be invalid.
-
Action: Specify a valid SCN range.
-
Cause: The specified Date value is invalid for the log file.
-
Action: Specify a valid date range.
-
Cause: The specified Options is invalid for the procedure.
-
Action: Specify valid Options.
-
Cause: The specified file cannot be opened.
-
Action: Check to make sure the file or directory exists and is accessible.
-
Cause: The file or directory may not exist or is inaccessible.
-
Action: Specify valid file or directory. Make sure that file and directory are accessible.
-
Cause: The log file is produced by a different database than other log files already added to the list.
-
Action: Specify a log file produced by the same database.
-
Cause: The logfile was produced by a different incarnation of the database.
-
Action: Add a logfile that is produced by the same incarnation.
-
Cause: The logfile is produced by a different incarnation of the database.
-
Action: Add a logfile that is produced by the same incarnation.
-
Cause: The log file specified has already been added to the list of log files.
-
Action: Specify a different log file.
-
Cause: The user attempted to remove a log file that is not present in the list.
-
Action: Specify a valid logfile.
-
Cause: Not all logfiles corresponding to the data or scn range specified have been added to the list.
-
Action: Check the v$logmnr_logs view to determine the missing scn range, and add the relevant logfiles.
-
Cause: No log file has been specified for the LogMiner session.
-
Action: Specify at least one log file.
-
Cause: The input date/SCN range is not fully contained within the log files specified for the session.
-
Action: Select out of V$LOGMNR_LOGS view to check the date or SCN range covered by the log files specified for the LogMiner session, and reissue the procedure with appropriate date or SCN range.
-
Cause: The dictionary file is corrupt.
-
Action: Get a new dictionary file.
-
Cause: The dictionary file is produced by a database that is different from that produced the log files.
-
Action: Specify a compatible dictionary file.
-
Cause: The character set of the database that produced the dictionary file is different from the character set of the database that produced the log files.
-
Action: Specify a dictionary file with the same character set.
-
Cause: The redo version of the database generating the dictionary is different from the one generating the logfiles.
-
Cause: The dictionary materialized view was taken at a SCN that does not correspond to the creation SCN of the earliest logfile.
-
Action: Get a correct dictionary materialized view.
-
Cause: The dictionary file was extracted from a different incarnation of the database.
-
Action: Specify a dictionary file extracted from the correct database incarnation.
-
Cause: DBMS_LOGMNR.USE_COLMAP can only be used with a valid dictionary.
-
Action: Specify the dictionary file in DBMS_LOGMNR.START_LOGMNR().
-
Cause: A syntax error was detected in the logmnr.opt file.
-
Action: Use correct syntax.
-
Cause: The schema specified does not exist.
-
Action: Specify a correct schema or a compatible dictionary file.
-
Cause: The table specified in the logmnr.opt file does not exist in the dictionary provided to LogMiner.
-
Action: Make sure that the table specified is valid.
-
Cause: The column specified in the logmnr.opt file does not exist for the table definition in the dictionary provided for LogMiner.
-
Action: Make sure that the column specified is valid.
-
Cause: A select was issued from V$LOGMNR_CONTENTS without first invoking the DBMS_LOGMNR.START_LOGMNR() procedure.
-
Action: Invoke the DBMS_LOGMNR.START_LOGMNR() procedure before issuing a select from the V$LOGMNR_CONTENTS view.
-
Cause: A select was issued from V$LOGMNR_CONTENTS without first invoking the DBMS_LOGMNR.START_LOGMNR() procedure. Otherwise, DBMS_LOGMNR.END_LOGMNR() was called without a prior call to DBMS_LOGMNR.START_LOGMNR() or DBMS_LOGMNR.ADD_LOGFILE()
-
Action: Invoke the DBMS_LOGMNR.START_LOGMNR() procedure before issuing a select from the V$LOGMNR_CONTENTS view.
-
Cause: UTL_FILE_DIR is not set in the initialization parameter file.
-
Action: Set UTL_FILE_DIR to the appropriate directory.
-
Cause: The specified Logminer session ID or session handle is invalid.
-
Action: Use a valid Logminer session ID or session handle.
-
Cause: The return type requested by the user is not supported by LCR_MINE.
-
Action: Pick a return type supported by the LCR_MINE function.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to use the MINE_VALUE function on a column other than redo_value or undo_value columns of SYS.V$LOGMNR_CONTENTS fixed table/view.
-
Action: Rewrite the SQL statement with a legal invocation of MINE_VALUE.
-
Cause: The table/column specified in the LCR_MINE call does not exist at the the specified SCN. The table/column definition has to exist at the start SCN specified for lcr_mine to be able to identify the table/column correctly.
-
Action: Create a LogMiner session at a start SCN at which the table definition is available.
-
Cause: The return type specified for the column in the LCR_MINE call is different from the actual type of the column.
-
Action: Rewrite the LCR_MINE invocation with the right return type.
-
Cause: The fully qualified name of the column to be mined by the LogMiner functions should be string literal.
-
Action: If the fully qualified name of the column to be mined is a.b.c.d, enclose the column name in quotes as in 'a.b.c.d'.
-
Cause: A redo log file has been added or removed while selecting on the v$logmnr_logs fixed view.
-
Action: Re-issue the SQL select statement on the v$logmnr_logs view.
-
Cause: A Logminer attach session was issued while already attached to a Logminer session.
-
Action: Detach from the current Logminer session and attach to the requested session.
-
Cause: A command or procedure was issued which requires an attached Logminer session.
-
Action: Attach to a Logminer session before issuing the command or procedure.
-
Cause: Logminer activate session was called before prepare session.
-
Cause: A session attribute was supplied which is invalid.
-
Action: Re-issue with a valid session attribute.
-
Cause: A Logminer dictionary attribute was supplied which is invalid.
-
Action: Re-issue with a valid dictionary attribute.
-
Cause: The input date/SCN range is not fully contained within the logfiles specified for the session.
-
Action: select out of v$logmnr_logs view to check the date or SCN range covered by the logfiles specified for the LogMiner session , and reissue the procedure with appropriate date or SCN range.
-
Cause: An non-existent table was supplied to Logminer include_src_tbl() or exclude_src_table().
-
Action: Re-issue with a valid table name.
-
Cause: A Logminer routine was called from the wrong state.
-
Cause: The logfile was produced by a different database than other logfiles already added to the list.
-
Action: Specify a logfile produced by the same database.
-
Cause: The database does not have archivelog mode enabled.
-
Action: Ensure that initialization parameters enabling archivelog mode are set. For example:
log_archive_start=true log_archive_dest="ORACLE_HOME/dbs" log_archive_format="archstring.log"
Mount the database and issue commands to enable archivelog mode.
startup pfile=initsid.ora mount ALTER DATABASE ARCHIVELOG ALTER DATABASE OPEN
-
Cause: The COMPATIBLE initialization parameter is set to some value less than 9.0.0.
-
Action: Ensure that the COMPATIBLE initialization parameter is set to 9.0.0 or higher. For example:
COMPATIBLE = 9.0.0.0.0
-
Cause: Other users are performing DDL operations.
-
Cause: Another process is simultaneously attempting to run build().
-
Action: Wait until the other process completes.
-
Cause: The table may be missing or locked by another user.
-
Action: This error should not occur. If it does occur and there is reason to believe that required tables are missing, then as a last resort the package dbmslmd.sql may be reinstalled. Doing so will delete all existing Logminer Dictionary data.
-
Cause: Unexpected error condition.
-
Action: Check the trace file.
-
Cause: No previously established Logminer Dictionary is available and a complete gather of a source system data dictionary was not found in the logstream. build() may not have been run to force the gathering of a source system data dictionary, or add_log_file() may not have been called to add all log files which contain the complete gathered system data dictionary.
-
Action: If build() was not employed prior to this mining session, the Logminer Ad Hoc user may elect to employ an alternate dictionary such as the current system catalog or a previously built flat file dictionary. Other Logminer clients must run build() prior to mining. If build() has been run, ensure that all logfiles which comprise the gathered system dictionary have been added. The following query, run on the system which build() was run, can be helpful in identifying the required files.
select DICTIONARY_BEGIN, DICTIONARY_END, name from v$archived_log;
Minimally a set of files starting with one which has DICTIONARY_BEGIN = 'YES' and all subsequent log files through one which has DICTIONARY_END = \qYESmustbeadded.'
-
Cause: The dictionary file or directory does not exist or is inaccessible.
-
Action: Make sure that the dictionary file and directory exist and are accessible.
-
Cause: The logfile has a different compatibility version than the rest of the logfiles in the session.
-
Action: Make sure that all logfiles in the session have the same compatibility version.
-
Cause: Can not do this when other process is attached to LogMiner session.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to add an already processed logfile.
-
Cause: Could not load NLS package.
-
Cause: The logfiles to be analyzed in the current LogMiner session require more system resources than what is currently available.
-
Action: Reduce the number of logfiles to be analyzed for a given LogMiner session and try again.
-
Cause: Logminer can not resume session because there is not enough SGA memory available to read in checkpointed data. Logminer periodically checkpoints data to enable faster crash recovery.
-
Action: Specify a bigger max_sga for the given LogMiner session and try again.
-
Cause: A coordinator process is already attached to the specified logminer context.
-
Action: Detach from the active coordinator session and retry the attach.
-
Cause: Supplemental log data must be enabled on this database instance.
-
Action: Enable supplemental log data.
-
Cause: LogMiner sessions exist on this database instance which rely on the existence of supplemental log data.
-
Action: Destroy all LogMiner sessions on this instance which are mining log files from this same instance. Then reissue the command.
-
Cause: The source database instance producing log files for this LogMiner session was altered to no longer log supplemental data.
-
Action: Destroy this Logminer session. Re-enable supplemental log data on the source system and create a new LogMiner session.
-
Cause: Invocation failed to specify either a dictionary tablespace or a spill tablespace.
-
Action: Reformat invocation of
DBMS_LOGMNR_D.SET_TABLESPACE
to include the name of one or more tablespaces.NEW_TABLESPACE
- A string naming an existing tablespace.Supply only this parameter to recreate all Logminer tables to employ this tablespace.
DICTIONARY_TABLESPACE
- A string naming an existing tablespace.Supply this parameter when it is desired to place Logminer Dictionary data in a tablespace different from that where Logminer spill data is to be written. This parameter overrides the
new_tablespace
parameter with respect to Logminer Dictionary tables.SPILL_TABLESPACE
- a string naming an existing tablespace.Supply this parameter when it is desired to place Logminer spill data in a tablespace different from that where Logminer Dictionary data is to be written. This parameter overrides the
new_tablespace
parameter with respect to Logminer spill tables.
-
Cause: The tablespace name given as either the
NEW_TABLESPACE
or theDICTIONARY_TABLESPACE
parameter toDBMS_LOGMNR_D.SET_TABLESPACE
does not exist. -
Action: Check the spelling of the tablespace name. If the spelling is correct, then verify that the named tablespace has already been created.
DBMS_LOGMNR_D.SET_TABLESPACE
will not create a tablespace. -
Cause: The tablespace name given as either the
NEW_TABLESPACE
or theSPILL_TABLESPACE
parameter toDBMS_LOGMNR_D.SET_TABLESPACE
does not exist. -
Action: Check the spelling of the tablespace name. If the spelling is correct, then verify that the named tablespace has already been created.
DBMS_LOGMNR_D.SET_TABLESPACE
will not create a tablespace. -
Cause: An attempt was made to execute
DBMS_LOGMNR_D.SET_TABLESPACE
while Logminer sessions existed. In generalDBMS_LOGMNR_D.SET_TABLESPACE
should be run before any Logminer activity has begun. If this error occurs, then this procedure has not been followed. -
Action: First cause all Logminer sessions to be destroyed. A Logminer session can exist as a result of executing
DBMS_LOGMNR.START_LOGMNR
or as the result of running a product such as Logical Standby or Streams which uses Logminer. Next, executeDBMS_LOGMNR_D.SET_TABLESPACE
. -
Cause: The specified restart scn is too old and Logminer could not find a proper checkpoint.
-
Action: Specify a bigger restart SCN to try again.
-
Cause: One or more log files containing the LogMiner dictionary was not found.
-
Action: Add into LogMiner all log files containing the dictionary.
-
Cause: The number of processes requested by the caller can not be allocated.
-
Action: Increase the number of parallel servers allocated to the instance.
-
Cause: The maximum number of concurrent persistent LogMiner sessions allowed is limited by the
LOGMNR_MAX_PERSISTENT_SESSIONS
parameter. Not enough memory has been set aside at instance startup to allocate the new LogMiner session. -
Action: Increase
LOGMNR_MAX_PERSISTENT_SESSIONS
and restart the instance. -
Cause: LogMiner does not mine redo records generated with
LOG_PARALLELISM
set to a value greater than1
. -
Cause: An attempt was made to insert a NULL into the column "USER"."TABLE"."COLUMN".
For example, if you enter:
connect scott/tiger create table a (a1 number not null); insert into a values (null);
Oracle returns:
ORA-01400 cannot insert NULL into ("SCOTT"."A"."A1") : which means you cannot insert NULL into "SCOTT"."A"."A1".
-
Action: Retry the operation with a value other than NULL.
-
Cause: The value entered is larger than the maximum width defined for the column.
-
Action: Enter a value smaller than the column width or use the MODIFY option with ALTER TABLE to expand the column width.
-
Cause: An INSERT or UPDATE statement was attempted on a view created with the CHECK OPTION. This would have resulted in the creation of a row that would not satisfy the view's WHERE clause.
-
Action: Examine the view's WHERE clause in the dictionary table VIEWS. If the current view does not have the CHECK OPTION, then its FROM clause must reference a second view that is defined using the CHECK OPTION. The second view's WHERE clause must also be satisfied by any INSERT or UPDATE statements. To insert the row, it may be necessary to insert it directly into the underlying table, rather than through the view.
-
Cause: In a host language program, all records have been fetched. The return code from the fetch was +4, indicating that all records have been returned from the SQL query.
-
Action: Terminate processing for the SELECT statement.
-
Cause: Increasing the length of a column would cause the combined length of the columns specified in a previous CREATE INDEX statement to exceed the maximum index length (255). The total index length is computed as the sum of the width of all indexed columns plus the number of indexed columns. Date fields are calculated as a length of 7, character fields are calculated at their defined width, and numeric fields are length 22.
-
Action: The only way to alter the column is to drop the affected index. The index cannot be re-created if to do so would exceed the maximum index width.
-
Cause: The INTO clause of a FETCH operation contained a NULL value, and no indicator was used. The column buffer in the program remained unchanged, and the cursor return code was +2. This is an error unless you are running Oracle with DBMS=6, emulating version 6, in which case it is only a warning.
-
Action: You may do any of the following:
- Use the NVL function to convert the retrieved NULL to another value, such as zero or blank. This is the simplest solution.
- Use an indicator to record the presence of the NULL. You probably should use this option when you want a specific action to be taken when a NULL arises.
- Revise the cursor definition so that no columns possibly containing NULL values are retrieved.
-
Cause: In a host language program, a FETCH operation was forced to truncate a character string. The program buffer area for this column was not large enough to contain the entire string. The cursor return code from the fetch was +3.
-
Action: Increase the column buffer area to hold the largest column value or perform other appropriate processing.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to update a table column "USER"."TABLE"."COLUMN" with a NULL value.
For example, if you enter:
connect scott/tiger update table a (a1 number not null); insert into a values (null);
Oracle returns:
ORA-01407 cannot update ("SCOTT"."A"."A1") to NULL
which means you cannot update the column "SCOTT"."A"."A1" to NULL.
-
Action: Retry the operation with a value other than NULL.
-
Cause: A CREATE INDEX statement specified a column that is already indexed. A single column may be indexed only once. Additional indexes may be created on the column if it is used as a portion of a concatenated index, that is, if the index consists of multiple columns.
-
Action: Do not attempt to re-index the column, as it is unnecessary. To create a concatenated key, specify one or more additional columns in the CREATE INDEX statement.
-
Cause: Creation of index with NOSORT option when rows were not ascending. The NOSORT option may only be used for indexes on groups of rows that already are in ascending order.
For non-unique indexes the ROWID is considered part of the index key. This means that two rows that appear to be stored in ascending order may not be. If you create an index NOSORT, and two of the rows in the table have the same index values, but get split across two extents, the data block address of the first block in the second extent can be less than the data block address of the last block in the first extent. If these addresses are not in ascending order, the ROWIDs are not either. Since these ROWIDs are considered part of the index key, the index key is not in ascending order, and the create index NOSORT fails.
-
Action: Create the index without the NOSORT option or ensure that the table is stored in one extent.
-
Cause: A ROWID was entered incorrectly. ROWIDs must be entered as formatted hexadecimal strings using only numbers and the characters A through F. A typical ROWID format is '000001F8.0001.0006'.
-
Action: Check the format, then enter the ROWID using the correct format. ROWID format: block ID, row in block, file ID.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to fetch a column of size more than 64K and could not store the length of the column in the given indicator of size 2 bytes.
-
Action: Use the new bind type with call backs to fetch the long column.
-
Cause: The length for type 97 is 0.
-
Action: Specify the correct length.
-
Cause: The user buffer bound by the user as packed decimal number contained an illegal value.
-
Action: Use a legal value.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to bind an array without either a current array length pointer or a zero maximum array length.
-
Action: Specify a valid length.
-
Cause: The query contains more distinct aggregates than can be processed. The current limit is 255.
-
Action: Reduce the number of distinct aggregate functions in the query.
-
Cause: Two tables in a join operation specified an outer join with respect to each other. If an outer join is specified on one of the tables in a join condition, it may not be specified on the other table.
-
Action: Remove the outer join specification (+) from one of the tables, then retry the operation.
-
Cause: a.b (+) = b.b and a.c (+) = c.c is not allowed.
-
Action: Check that this is really what you want, then join b and c first in a view.
-
Cause: An ALTER INDEX, DROP INDEX, or VALIDATE INDEX statement specified the name of an index that does not exist. Only existing indexes can be altered, dropped, or validated. Existing indexes may be listed by querying the data dictionary.
-
Action: Specify the name of an existing index in the ALTER INDEX, DROP INDEX, or VALIDATE INDEX statement.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to use an incorrect format.
-
Action: Inspect the format, correct it if necessary, then retry the operation.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to use an invalid format.
-
Action: Inspect the format, correct it if necessary, then retry the operation.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to use an invalid precision specifier.
-
Action: Inspect the precision specifier, correct it if necessary, then retry the operation.
-
Cause: The number specified in exact fetch is less than the rows returned.
-
Action: Rewrite the query or change number of rows requested.
-
Cause: An error was encountered during the execution of an exact fetch. This message will be followed by more descriptive messages.
-
Action: See the accompanying messages and take appropriate action.
-
Cause: The character following the escape character in LIKE pattern is missing or not one of the escape character, '%', or '_'.
-
Action: Remove the escape character or specify the missing character.
-
Cause: Given escape character for LIKE is not a character string of length 1.
-
Action: Change it to a character string of length 1.
-
Cause: Evaluation of an value expression causes an overflow/underflow.
-
Action: Reduce the operands.
-
Cause: The outer query must use one of the keywords ANY, ALL, IN, or NOT IN to specify values to compare because the subquery returned more than one row.
-
Action: Use ANY, ALL, IN, or NOT IN to specify which values to compare or reword the query so only one row is retrieved.
-
Cause: An illegal value for a mathematical function argument was specified. For example
SELECT SQRT(-1) "Square Root" FROM DUAL;
-
Action: See the Oracle9i SQL Reference for valid input and ranges of the mathematical functions.
-
Cause: No overflow segment defined.
-
Action: Add overflow segment.
-
Cause: An ALTER TABLE ADD statement specified the name of a column that is already in the table. All column names must be unique within a table.
-
Action: Specify a unique name for the new column, then re-execute the statement.
-
Cause: An internal error occurred while attempting to execute a GRANT statement.
-
Action: Contact Oracle Support Services.
-
Cause: The synonym specified in DROP PUBLIC SYNONYM is not a valid public synonym. It may be a private synonym.
-
Action: Correct the synonym name or use DROP SYNONYM if the synonym is not public.
-
Cause: A CREATE SYNONYM statement specified a synonym name that is the same as an existing synonym, table, view, or cluster. Synonyms may not have the same name as any other synonym, table, view, or cluster available to the user creating the synonym.
-
Action: Specify a unique name for the synonym, then re-execute the statement.
-
Cause: A DROP SYNONYM statement specified a synonym that does not exist. Existing synonym names may be listed by querying the data dictionary.
-
Action: Specify the name of an existing synonym in the DROP SYNONYM statement.
-
Cause: This message is caused by any reference to a non-existent user. For example, it occurs if a SELECT, GRANT, or REVOKE statement specifies a username that does not exist. Only a GRANT CONNECT statement may specify a new username. All other GRANT and REVOKE statements must specify existing usernames. If specified in a SELECT statement, usernames must already exist.
-
Action: Specify only existing usernames in the SELECT, GRANT, or REVOKE statement or ask the database administrator to define the new username.
-
Cause: The condition specified in a CONNECT BY clause caused a loop in the query, where the next record to be selected is a descendent of itself. When this happens, there can be no end to the query.
-
Action: Check the CONNECT BY clause and remove the circular reference.
-
Cause: A join operation was specified with a CONNECT BY clause. If a CONNECT BY clause is used in a SELECT statement for a tree-structured query, only one table may be referenced in the query.
-
Action: Remove either the CONNECT BY clause or the join operation from the SQL statement.
-
Cause: When inserting or updating records, a numeric value was entered that exceeded the precision defined for the column.
-
Action: Enter a value that complies with the numeric column's precision, or use the MODIFY option with the ALTER TABLE command to expand the precision.
-
Cause: An ALTER TABLE MODIFY statement attempted to change the datatype of a column containing data. A column whose datatype is to be altered must contain only NULL values.
-
Action: To alter the datatype, first set all values in the column to NULL.
-
Cause: An ALTER TABLE MODIFY statement attempted to decrease the scale or precision of a numeric column containing data. In order to decrease either of these values, the column must contain only NULL values. An attempt to increase the scale without also increasing the precision will also cause this message.
-
Action: Set all values in the column to NULL before decreasing the numeric precision or scale. If attempting to increase the scale, increase the precision in accordance with the scale or set all values in the column to NULL first.
-
Cause: An ALTER TABLE MODIFY statement attempted to decrease the size of a character field containing data. A column whose maximum size is to be decreased must contain only NULL values.
-
Action: Set all values in column to NULL before decreasing the maximum size.
-
Cause: An ALTER TABLE MODIFY statement attempted to change a column specification unnecessarily, from NOT NULL to NOT NULL.
-
Action: No action required.
-
Cause: An internal error occurred in referencing a view.
-
Action: Contact Oracle Support Services.
-
Cause: This is an internal error message not normally issued.
-
Action: Contact Oracle Support Services.
-
Cause: A SELECT statement attempted to select ROWIDs from a view derived from a join operation. Because the rows selected in the view do not correspond to underlying physical records, no ROWIDs can be returned.
-
Action: Remove ROWID from the view selection clause, then re-execute the statement.
-
Cause: A SELECT statement attempted to select ROWIDs from a view containing columns derived from functions or expressions. Because the rows selected in the view do not correspond to underlying physical records, no ROWIDs can be returned.
-
Action: Remove ROWID from the view selection clause, then re-execute the statement.
-
Cause: An ALTER TABLE MODIFY statement specified a column used to cluster the table. Clustered columns may not be altered.
-
Action: To alter the column, first re-create the table in non-clustered form. The column's size can be increased at the same time.
-
Cause: An ALTER TABLE MODIFY statement attempted to change an indexed character column to a LONG column. Columns with the datatype LONG may not be indexed, so the index must be dropped before the modification.
-
Action: Drop all indexes referencing the column before changing its datatype to LONG.
-
Cause: An ALTER TABLE MODIFY statement attempted to change the definition of a column containing NULL values to NOT NULL. The column may not currently contain any NULL values if it is to be altered to NOT NULL.
-
Action: Set all NULL values in the column to values other than NULL before ALTERING the column to NOT NULL.
-
Cause: The combined length of all the columns specified in a CREATE INDEX statement exceeded the maximum index length. The maximum index length varies by operating system. The total index length is computed as the sum of the width of all indexed columns plus the number of indexed columns. Date fields have a length of 7, character fields have their defined length, and numeric fields have a length of 22. Numeric length = (precision/2) + 1. If negative, add +1.
-
Action: Select columns to be indexed so the total index length does not exceed the maximum index length for the operating system. See also your operating system-specific Oracle documentation.
-
Cause: The column may already allow NULL values, the NOT NULL constraint is part of a primary key or check constraint, or an ALTER TABLE MODIFY statement attempted to change a column specification unnecessarily, from NULL to NULL.
-
Action: If a primary key or check constraint is enforcing the NOT NULL constraint, then drop that constraint.
-
Cause: A CREATE UNIQUE INDEX statement specified one or more columns that currently contain duplicate values. All values in the indexed columns must be unique by row to create a UNIQUE INDEX.
-
Action: If the entries need not be unique, remove the keyword UNIQUE from the CREATE INDEX statement, then re-execute the statement. If the entries must be unique, as in a primary key, then remove duplicate values before creating the UNIQUE index.
-
Cause: A transaction was not processed properly because the SET TRANSACTION statement was not the first statement.
-
Action: Commit or roll back the current transaction before using the statement SET TRANSACTION.
-
Cause: A non-numeric value could not be converted into a number value.
-
Action: Check the value to make sure it contains only numbers, a sign, a decimal point, and the character "E" or "e", then retry the operation.
-
Cause: The converted form of the specified expression was too large for the specified datatype.
-
Action: Define a larger datatype or correct the data.
-
Cause: A non-DDL insert/delete/update or select for update operation was attempted.
-
Action: Commit (or roll back) the transaction, and then re-execute.
-
Cause: The converted form of the specified expression was too large for the specified type. The problem also occurs in COBOL programs when using COMP-3 in the picture clause, which is acceptable to the Pro*COBOL Precompiler and to COBOL but results in this error.
-
Action: Define a larger datatype or correct the data.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to bind or define a variable character string with a buffer length less than the minimum requirement.
-
Action: Increase the buffer size or use a different type.
-
Cause: The buffer length was less than the minimum required or greater than its length at bind time minus two bytes.
-
Action: Make sure the string size is long enough to hold the buffer.
-
Cause: The requested format conversion is not supported.
-
Action: Remove the requested conversion from the SQL statement. Check the syntax for the TO_CHAR, TO_DATE, and TO_NUMBER functions to see which conversions are supported.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to insert a value from a LONG datatype into another datatype. This is not allowed.
-
Action: Do not try to insert LONG datatypes into other types of columns.
-
Cause: The longest literal supported by Oracle consists of 2000 characters.
-
Action: Reduce the number of characters in the literal to 2000 characters or fewer or use the VARCHAR2 or LONG datatype to insert strings exceeding 2000 characters.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to modify the datatype of column which has referential constraints; or has check constraints which only allows changing the datatype from CHAR to VARCHAR or vise versa.
-
Action: Remove the constraint(s) or do not perform the offending operation.
-
Cause: The user in the TO clause of the GRANT statement has already been GRANTed privileges on this table.
-
Action: Do not GRANT privileges on a table to the user who originally GRANTed privileges on that table. The statement in error is probably unnecessary.
-
Cause: In an UPDATE statement following a SELECT FOR UPDATE, part of the ROWID contains invalid characters. ROWID must be expressed in the proper and expected format for ROWID and within quotes.
-
Action: Enter the ROWID just as it was returned in the SELECT FOR UPDATE.
-
Cause: This is a time-based read consistency error for a database object, such as a table or index. Either of the following may have happened:
-
Action: If the cause is:
- an old snapshot, then commit or rollback the transaction and resume work.
- a creation time-stamp in the future, ensure the system time is set correctly.
If the object creation time-stamp is still greater than the system time, then export the object's data, drop the object, re-create the object so it has a new creation time-stamp, import the object's data, and resume work.
-
Cause: A DISTINCT, GROUP BY, ORDER BY, or SET operation requires a sort key longer than that supported by Oracle. Either too many columns or too many group functions were specified in the SELECT statement.
-
Action: Reduce the number of columns or group functions involved in the operation.
-
Cause: A predicate in the WHERE clause has two columns from different tables with "(+)".
-
Action: Change the WHERE clause so that each predicate has a maximum of one outer-join table.
-
Cause: An invalid column name was specified after the PRIOR keyword.
-
Action: Check syntax, spelling, use a valid column name, and try again.
-
Cause: Constants of different types are specified in an in-list.
-
Action: Use constants of same type for in-lists.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to create a private synonym with the same name as the object to which it refers. This error typically occurs when a user attempts to create a private synonym with the same name as one of their objects.
-
Action: Choose a different synonym name or create the synonym under a different username.
-
Cause: CONNECT BY cannot be used on a view where there is not a correspondence between output rows and rows of the underlying table.
-
Action: Remove the DISTINCT or GROUP BY from the view or move the CONNECT BY clause into the view.
-
Cause: Subqueries cannot be used in a CONNECT BY clause.
-
Action: Remove the subquery or move it to the WHERE clause.
-
Cause: START WITH and PRIOR are meaningful only in connection with CONNECT BY.
-
Action: Check the syntax for the SQL statement and add a CONNECT BY clause, if necessary.
-
Cause: After executing a statement, an attempt was made to rebind a bind variable with a datatype different from that of the original bind.
-
Action: Re-parse the cursor before rebinding with a different datatype.
-
Cause: An expression attempted to divide by zero.
-
Action: Correct the expression, then retry the operation.
-
Cause: This is an internal error message not normally issued.
-
Action: Contact Oracle Support Services.
-
Cause: User is performing an array bind with a bind variable whose maximum size is greater than 2000 bytes.
-
Action: Such bind variables cannot participate in array binds. Use an ordinary bind operation instead.
-
Cause: A bind variable of type 97 does not contain null at the last position.
-
Action: Make the last character null.
-
Cause: A bind variable of type 5 (null-terminated string) does not contain the terminating null in its buffer.
-
Action: Terminate the string with a null character.
-
Cause: An invalid format parameter was used with the TO_CHAR or TO_NUMBER function.
-
Action: Correct the syntax, then retry the operation.
-
Cause: The character set used to perform the operation, such as the CONVERT function, is not a supported character set.
-
Action: Use one of the supported character sets.
-
Cause: At attempt was made to bind an array to a non-PL/SQL statement.
-
Action: Rewrite the offending code being careful to bind arrays only to PL/SQL statements.
-
Cause: You bound a buffer of type DTYVCS (VARCHAR with the two byte length in front) and at execute time the length in the first two bytes is more than the maximum buffer length, given in the bind call. The number of elements in the array and the current number of elements in the array cannot be more than the maximum size of the array.
-
Action: Ensure that the buffer size is sufficiently large to contain the array plus two bytes for the buffer length.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to bind a data value that was either too large for the datatype, for example, NUMBER, or was greater than 2000 bytes, for example, VARCHAR or LONG.
-
Action: Find a way to convert or truncate the data value so that its length is acceptable.
-
Cause: A conversion request cannot be performed because the buffer is too small to hold the result.
-
Action: Increase the size of the buffer.
-
Cause: A conversion request cannot be performed because a digit was invalid.
-
Action: Fix the number and retry.
-
Cause: String concatenation result is more than the maximum size.
-
Action: Make sure that the result is less than the maximum size.
-
Cause: The syntax of the ANALYZE command was incorrect.
-
Action: Check the syntax and enter the command using the correct syntax.
-
Cause: The CASCADE option should be used only for tables or clusters.
-
Action: Do not use the CASCADE option in this manner. Check the syntax of the statement and then retry.
-
Cause: The LIST option can be used only for tables or clusters.
-
Action: Do not use the LIST option in this manner. Check the syntax of the statement and then retry.
-
Cause: The specified SAMPLE size is out of range
-
Action: Specify a value within the proper range.
-
Cause: The specified histogram SIZE value was out of range.
-
Action: Specify a value within the proper range.
-
Cause: The specified table either does not exist or user does not have the proper privileges.
-
Action: Specify the correct table to use.
-
Cause: The specified table does not have the proper field definitions.
-
Action: Specify the correct table to use.
-
Cause: The FOR COLUMNS column_list clause cannot be used with ANALYZE CLUSTER.
-
Action: Retry with a legal syntax.
For more information about ANALYZE CLUSTER, see the Oracle9i SQL Reference.
-
Cause: An error occurred while checking a block with the ANALYZE command.
-
Action: Check the trace file for more descriptive messages about the problem. Correct these errors. The name of the trace file is operating system-specific, for example, ORAxxxx.TRC. It is found in the directory specified by the initialization parameter USER_DUMP_DEST. If USER_DUMP_DEST is not set, trace files are not created. It may be necessary to re-create the object. See also your operating system-specific Oracle documentation.
-
Cause: An error occurred when validating an index or a table using the ANALYZE command. One or more entries does not point to the appropriate cross-reference.
-
Action: Check the trace file for more descriptive messages about the problem. Correct these errors. The name of the trace file is operating system-specific, for example, ORAxxxx.TRC. It is found in the directory specified by the
USER_DUMP_DEST
initialization parameter. IfUSER_DUMP_DEST
is not set, trace files are not created. It may be necessary to re-create the object. See also your operating system-specific Oracle documentation.

ORA-01500 to ORA-02099
-
Cause: During CREATE DATABASE or ALTER TABLESPACE, there was a failure in getting the date and time.
-
Action: Contact Oracle Support Services.
-
Cause: An error occurred during CREATE DATABASE.
-
Action: See accompanying errors.
-
Cause: An attempt has been made to access an index or index partition that has been marked unusable by a direct load or by a DDL operation.
-
Action: DROP the specified index, or REBUILD the specified index, or REBUILD the unusable index partition.
-
Cause: An error occurred during CREATE CONTROLFILE.
-
Action: See accompanying errors.
-
Cause: The name in a database create or mount does not match the name given in the initialization parameter DB_NAME.
-
Action: Correct or omit one of the two names.
-
Cause: During CREATE or ALTER DATABASE, error(s) occurred when adding new log files.
-
Action: Check error stack for detailed error information.
-
Cause: No database name was specified in the CREATE/ALTER DATABASE statement, and no DB_NAME initialization parameter was specified.
-
Action: Either the database name must be given in the statement or in the DB_NAME initialization parameter. Note that the SVRMGR or SQL*PLUS STARTUP command issues an ALTER DATABASE statement using the database name specified as part of STARTUP (if any).
-
Cause: A command was attempted that requires the database to be mounted.
-
Action: If you are using the ALTER DATABASE statement via the SVRMGR or SQL*PLUS STARTUP command, specify the MOUNT option to restart; else if you are directly doing an ALTER DATABASE DISMOUNT, do nothing; else specify the MOUNT option to ALTER DATABASE. If you are doing a backup or copy, you must first mount the desired database.
-
Cause: CREATE DATABASE was unable to process the specified file.
-
Action: Check the offending line in the specified file.
-
Cause: The database name specified in ALTER DATABASE does not match the name of the currently mounted database.
-
Action: Correct the database name spelling or DISMOUNT the mounted database.
-
Cause: During ALTER DATABASE, an error occurred while dropping log files.
-
Action: Check the error stack for detailed error information.
-
Cause: During ALTER DATABASE, an error occurred while renaming log or datafiles.
-
Action: Check the error stack for detailed error information.
-
Cause: An attempt to change a log file's name in the control file failed because no file was found with the new name.
-
Action: Make sure that the log file has been properly renamed by the operating system and retry.
-
Cause: The operating system returned a time that was not between 1988 and 2121.
-
Action: Correct the time kept by the operating system.
-
Cause: A log file name, or list of member names, did not correspond to an existing log.
-
Action: Specify an existing log file.
-
Cause: ALTER DATABASE is attempting to drop a log file which is not known to the database control file.
-
Action: Specify the name of an existing log file.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to use
ALTER DATABASE
to rename a log file, datafile, or tempfile; or to change attributes of a datafile or tempfile (for example, such as resize, autoextend, online/offline, and so on); or to re-create a datafile. The attempt failed because the specified file is not known to the database's control file or is not of a type supported by the request. -
Action: Specify the name or number of an existing file of the correct type, as appropriate. Check the relevant
V$
table for a list of possible files. -
Cause: This message indicates the filename involved with other messages.
-
Action: See the accompanying messages and take appropriate action.
-
Cause: Only one log file was specified in the CREATE DATABASE statement.
-
Action: Specify at least two log files.
-
Cause: CREATE DATABASE encountered a problem while processing specified file. The specified file is bad.
-
Action: Retry your system installation procedure or contact Oracle Support Services.
-
Cause: CREATE TABLESPACE statement specifies more files than is permitted for this database.
-
Action: Use fewer files or re-create the control file with a larger value of MAXDATAFILES.
-
Cause: During CREATE or ALTER TABLESPACE, an error was detected while adding datafiles.
-
Action: Check the error stack for detailed error information.
-
Cause: During ALTER TABLESPACE RENAME, a file to be renamed was not found in the database control file.
-
Action: Specify the correct file name.
-
Cause: During ALTER DATABASE RENAME or ALTER TABLESPACE RENAME, the new name of a file is already present in the control file.
-
Action: Rename the file to a name not already being used as part of the database.
-
Cause: During ALTER DATABASE CREATE DATAFILE, the new name of a file is already present in the control file.
-
Action: Create the file as a name not already being used as part of the database.
-
Cause: An error occurred when renaming files as part of ALTER TABLESPACE.
-
Action: Check the error stack for detailed information. All files are renamed except for those mentioned in the error stack.
-
Cause: CREATE DATABASE was not able to open the specified file. This is probably due to a system installation error.
-
Action: Retry your system installation procedure or contact Oracle Support Services.
-
Cause: CREATE DATABASE was not able to read the specified file. This is probably due to a system installation error.
-
Action: Retry your system installation procedure or contact Oracle Support Services.
-
Cause: CREATE DATABASE unexpectedly hit EOF while reading the specified file. The SQL.BSQ file is bad.
-
Action: Retry your system installation procedure or contact Oracle Support Services.
-
Cause: CREATE DATABASE was not able to close the specified file.
-
Action: Retry your system installation procedure or contact Oracle Support Services.
-
Cause: During ALTER DATABASE MOUNT, an attempt is being made to mount a database on an instance in which a database is or has previously been mounted.
-
Action: If you wish to mount the database, shut down and then restart the instance and retry the operation.
-
Cause: During ALTER DATABASE, an attempt was made to open a database on an instance for which there is already an open database.
-
Action: If you wish to open a new database on the instance, first shut down and then restart the instance and retry the operation.
-
Cause: During CREATE DATABASE, another user appears to be simultaneously altering the instance.
-
Action: Make sure no one else is simultaneously altering the instance. If no one is, contact Oracle Support Services; otherwise, retry the operation.
-
Cause: During ALTER TABLESPACE RENAME, a file to be renamed was not found in the argument tablespace.
-
Action: Specify the correct file name or the correct tablespace name.
-
Cause: During ALTER or DROP ROLLBACK SEGMENT, the specified rollback segment name is unknown.
-
Action: Use the correct rollback segment name.
-
Cause: Specified rollback segment already exists.
-
Action: Use a different name.
-
Cause: The space quota for the segment owner in the tablespace has been exhausted and the operation attempted the creation of a new segment extent in the tablespace.
-
Action: Either drop unnecessary objects in the tablespace to reclaim space or have a privileged user increase the quota on this tablespace for the segment owner.
-
Cause: During CREATE or ALTER TABLESPACE, a file being added is already part of the database.
-
Action: Use a different file name.
-
Cause: Failed to acquire any rollback segment during startup in shared mode.
-
Action: Restart in exclusive mode to create one more public segment or specify available private segments in the initialization parameter. ROLLBACK_SEGMENTS_REQUIRED, then start in shared mode
-
Cause: Failed to either make a tablespace read only or offline because it is not online. A tablespace must be online before it can become read only or offline normal.
-
Action: Check the status of the tablespace. Use IMMEDIATE or TEMPORARY options to force all files offline. Bring the tablespace online before making it read only.
-
Cause: Failed to bring a tablespace online because it is not offline.
-
Action: Check the status of the tablespace.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to bring system tablespace offline.
-
Action: Shut down if necessary to do recovery.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to allocate space in an offline tablespace.
-
Action: Bring the tablespace online or create the object in other tablespace.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to create a tablespace which already exists.
-
Action: Use a different name for the new tablespace.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to drop system rollback segment.
-
Action: No action required.
-
Cause: One of the following:
- An attempt was made to bring a rollback segment online that is unavailable during startup; for example, the rollback segment is in an offline tablespace.
- An attempt was made to bring a rollback segment online that is already online. This is because the rollback segment is specified twice in the ROLLBACK_SEGMENTS parameter in the initialization parameter file or the rollback segment is already online by another instance.
- An attempt was made to drop a rollback segment that is currently online.
- An attempt was made to alter a rollback segment that is currently online to use unlimited extents.
- An attempt was made to online a rollback segment that is corrupted. This is because the rollback is specified in _corrupted_rollback_segments parameter in initialization parameter file.
-
Action: One of the following:
- Make the rollback segment available; for example, bring an offline tablespace online.
- Remove the name from the ROLLBACK_SEGMENTS parameter if the name is a duplicate or if another instance has already acquired the rollback segment.
- Bring the rollback segment offline first. This may involve waiting for the active transactions to finish, or, if the rollback segment needs recovery, discover which errors are holding up the rolling back of the transactions and take appropriate actions.
- Same as 3).
- Remove the name from the _corrupted_rollback_segments parameter.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to make a tablespace that contains active rollback segment(s) offline or read only.
-
Action: Shut down instances that use the active rollback segments in the tablespace and then make the tablespace offline or read only.
-
Cause: Media recovery with one of the incomplete recovery options ended without error. However, if the ALTER DATABASE OPEN RESETLOGS command were attempted now, it would fail with the specified error. The most likely cause of this error is forgetting to restore one or more datafiles from a sufficiently old backup before executing the incomplete recovery.
-
Action: Rerun the incomplete media recovery using different datafile backups, a different control file, or different stop criteria.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to drop a tablespace that contains active rollback segment(s).
-
Action: Shut down instances that use the active rollback segments in the tablespace and then drop the tablespace.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to drop a non-empty tablespace.
-
Action: To drop all the objects in the tablespace, use the INCLUDING CONTENTS option.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to drop system tablespace. This is not allowed.
-
Action: No action required.
-
Cause: Doing recursive extent of rollback segment, trapped internally by the system.
-
Action: No action required.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to use the system rollback segment for operations involving non-system tablespace. If this is a clone database then this will happen when attempting any data modification outside of the system tablespace. Only the system rollback segment can be online in a clone database.
-
Action: Create one or more private/public segment(s), shut down and restart. May need to modify the initialization parameter ROLLBACK_SEGMENTS to acquire private rollback segment. If this is a clone database being used for tablespace point in time recovery then this operation is not allowed.
-
Cause: The number of extents allocated is greater than the MAXEXTENTS specified.
-
Action: Specify a larger MAXEXTENTS value.
-
Cause: Too many concurrent transactions.
-
Action: Shut down the system, modify the initialization parameters TRANSACTIONS, ROLLBACK_SEGMENTS or ROLLBACK_SEGMENTS_REQUIRED, and then restart.
-
Cause: Rollback records needed by a reader for consistent read are overwritten by other writers.
-
Action: If in Automatic Undo Management mode, increase the setting of
UNDO_RETENTION
. Otherwise, use larger rollback segments. -
Cause: Specified MINEXTENTS of less than 2 for rollback segment.
-
Action: Specify larger MINEXTENTS.
-
Cause: Specified extent of less than minimum size for rollback segment.
-
Action: Specify larger extents.
-
Cause: All the available transaction IDs have been used.
-
Action: Shut down the instance and restart using other rollback segment(s), then drop the rollback segment that has no more transaction IDs.
-
Cause: Specified MAXEXTENTS of less than 2 for rollback segment.
-
Action: Specify larger MAXEXTENTS.
-
Cause: Like pattern is not formed correctly.
-
Action: Make sure like pattern is specified correctly.
-
Cause: Failed to remove all objects when dropping a tablespace.
-
Action: Retry the drop tablespace until all objects are dropped.
-
Cause: Failure occurred when trying to extend rollback segment.
-
Action: This is normally followed by another error message that caused the failure. You may take the rollback segment offline to perform maintenance. Use SELECT SEGMENT_NAME FROM DBA_ROLLBACK_SEGS WHERE SEGMENT_ID=string (where string is the segment number from the message) to determine the rollback segment name. Then use the ALTER ROLLBACK SEGMENT OFFLINE command to take the rollback segment offline.
-
Cause: Did not use the keyword PUBLIC to identified public rollback segment.
-
Action: Use the keyword PUBLIC when identifying public rollback segment.
-
Cause: The rollback segment identified is not public.
-
Action: Do not use the keyword PUBLIC when identifying private rollback segment.
-
Cause: An error occurred while trying to identify a file.
-
Action: Check the error stack for detailed information.
-
Cause: The list of files supplied to DROP LOGFILE contains at least one duplicate.
-
Action: Remove the duplicate file specification and retry.
-
Cause: Dropping all the logs specified would leave fewer than the required two log files per enabled thread.
-
Action: Either drop fewer logs or disable the thread before deleting the logs. It may be possible to clear the log rather than drop it.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to set space quota on a tablespace for PUBLIC.
-
Action: If trying to grant system-wide or tablespace-wide space privileges to all users, use GRANT RESOURCE [ON tablespace] TO PUBLIC.
-
Cause: The datafile specified during creation of the database is too small to hold the system dictionary tables.
-
Action: Re-create the database by specifying a larger file or more files.
-
Cause: The number of extents allocated is smaller than the MINEXTENTS specified.
-
Action: Specify a smaller MINEXTENTS value.
-
Cause: This software version cannot read the current redo logs, and either crash recovery is required or there are offline database files that need media recovery. If a file name is listed then it needs media recovery.
-
Action: Shut down and restart using the compatible software. Do any required media recovery, and open the database. Shut down and restart using the current software. If the file is going to be dropped then take it offline with the DROP option to skip this check.
-
Cause: The number of extents in the rollback segment exceeds the hard limit. It cannot be brought online for writing.
-
Action: Drop and re-create the rollback segment.
-
Cause: Some process tried to make changes while the database was being shut down.
-
Action: No action required.
-
Cause: The limit on the number of concurrent transactions has been hit.
-
Action: Shut down the system, increase the value of the initialization parameter TRANSACTIONS, and then restart the system.
-
Cause: Failed to acquire necessary resource to do space management.
-
Action: Retry the operation.
-
Cause: Current software uses incompatible locking protocol.
-
Action: Upgrade software used to start instances so that they use compatible locking protocol.
-
Cause: During CREATE or ALTER DATABASE, a file being added is already part of the database.
-
Action: Use a different file name.
-
Cause: The data block indicated was corrupted, probably due to program errors.
-
Action: Determine which object was corrupted using a command like the following:
SELECT SEGMENT_TYPE,OWNER||'.'||SEGMENT_NAME FROM DBA_EXTENTS WHERE file = FILE_ID AND block BETWEEN BLOCK_ID AND BLOCK_ID+BLOCKS -1;
where values for file and block are from the message.
Try to restore the segment containing the block indicated. This may involve dropping the segment and re-creating it. If there is a trace file, report the errors in it to Oracle Support Services.
-
Cause: A write error occurred during recovery.
-
Action: Consult trace files for the nature of the write error, and correct error.
-
Cause: An operating system error occurred while attempting to create a control file backup.
-
Action: Check the error stack for more detailed information.
-
Cause: Undo generated to extend a rollback segment has run out of current undo block space. Oracle is attempting to write into the new extent which has not been completely allocated.
-
Action: The rollback segment extending will be rolled back by the system, no more extension will be possible until the next extent is freed up by rolling back or committing other transactions.
-
Cause: An operating system error occurred while attempting to open a control file for backup.
-
Action: Check the error stack for more detailed information.
-
Cause: An operating system error occurred while attempting to get the block size of a control file for backup.
-
Action: Check the error stack for more detailed information.
-
Cause: An operating system error occurred while attempting to get the file size of a control file for backup.
-
Action: Check the error stack for more detailed information.
-
Cause: An operating system error occurred when attempting to identify the file to be used for control file backup.
-
Action: Check the error stack for more detailed information.
-
Cause: An operating system error occurred while attempting to open a control file for backup.
-
Action: Check the error stack for more detailed information.
-
Cause: An operating system error occurred while attempting to copy a control file for backup.
-
Action: Check the accompanying message stack for detailed information and then take appropriate action.
-
Cause: An earlier attempt to open the database with the RESETLOGS option did not complete, or recovery was done with a control file backup.
-
Action: Use the RESETLOGS option when opening the database.
-
Cause: Either incomplete or backup control file recovery has been performed. After these types of recovery you must specify either the RESETLOGS option or the NORESETLOGS option to open your database.
-
Action: Specify the appropriate option.
-
Cause: The value of the storage parameter FREELIST GROUPS is too large.
-
Action: Reduce the value of the storage parameter FREELIST GROUPS.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to access resource that is locked by a dead two-phase commit transaction that is in prepared state.
-
Action: The database administrator should query the PENDING_TRANS$ and related tables, and attempt to repair network connection(s) to coordinator and commit point. If timely repair is not possible, the database administrator should contact the database administrator at the commit point if known or the end user for correct outcome, or use heuristic default if given to issue a heuristic COMMIT or ABORT command to finalize the local portion of the distributed transaction.
-
Cause: Look at the accompanying internal error; Version 7 database may not have shut down cleanly.
-
Action: Investigate the internal error; may have to reload the Version 7 database (from backup) and shut down the database cleanly.
-
Cause: Specified OPTIMAL size is smaller than the cumulative size of the initial extents during create rollback segment.
-
Action: Specify a larger OPTIMAL size.
-
Cause: Undo generated to free a rollback segment extent is attempting to write into the same extent due to small extents and/or there are too many extents to free.
-
Action: The rollback segment shrinking will be rolled back by the system; increase the optimal size of the rollback segment.
-
Cause: Some error occurred while freeing inactive rollback segment extents.
-
Action: Investigate the accompanying error.
-
Cause: The system rollback segment is specified in the initialization parameter referred to in the error message.
-
Action: Change the value of the initialization parameter.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to online or offline the system rollback segment.
-
Action: No action required.
-
Cause: Could have been taken offline before by the database administrator or cleaned up by SMON.
-
Action: Check the status of rollback segment in UNDO$ or DBA_ROLLBACK_SEGS to make sure the rollback segment is actually online.
-
Cause: The amount statically allocated is not enough based on the value of the MAX_ROLLBACK_SEGMENTS parameter.
-
Action: For now, take another rollback segment offline or increase the value of the parameter MAX_ROLLBACK_SEGMENTS.
-
Cause: The initialization parameter was incorrectly specified.
-
Action: Correct the initialization parameter and restart the instance.
-
Cause: The bucket size was invalid for this parameter.
-
Action: Correct the initialization parameter and restart the instance.
-
Cause: The grouping size was invalid for this parameter.
-
Action: Correct the initialization parameter and restart the instance.
-
Cause: The number range was invalid for this parameter.
-
Action: Correct the initialization parameter and restart the instance.
-
Cause: The numbers were missing for this parameter.
-
Action: Correct the initialization parameter and restart the instance.
-
Cause: The GC_FILES_TO_LOCKS parameters were different on two instances.
-
Action: Modify the initialization parameter GC_FILES_TO_LOCKS and restart.
-
Cause: The GC_LCK_PROCS initialization parameter is not the same as in other instances that already have the database open.
-
Action: Modify the GC_LCK_PROCS parameter and restart the instance.
-
Cause: Could have been brought online before by the database administrator or left as a result of process crash.
-
Action: Check the status of rollback segment in UNDO$ or DBA_ROLLBACK_SEGS
-
Cause: A member of the current log for a thread cannot be dropped.
-
Action: If the thread is opened, request a log switch by the instance that is using it. If it is not open, disable the thread, manually archive the log, or clear it.
-
Cause: Either an earlier database recovery session specified BACKUP CONTROLFILE, or the control file was re-created with the RESETLOGS option, or the control file being used is a backup control file. After that only BACKUP CONTROLFILE recovery is allowed and it must be followed by a log reset at the next database open.
-
Action: Perform recovery using the BACKUP CONTROFILE option.
-
Cause: A thread number in a command is greater than the number of threads supported by the control file.
-
Action: Use a thread number that is valid, or resize the thread record and/or checkpoint progress record sections of the control file.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to enable a thread that is already enabled.
-
Action: Either use this thread or enable another thread.
-
Cause: The thread cannot be enabled because it only has two online log files associated with it.
-
Action: Add logs to the thread or pick another thread to enable.
-
Cause: The mount enqueue for the thread could not be acquired when attempting to enable the thread. This probably means that another process has already started enabling this thread.
-
Action: Wait and try again, or find another thread to enable.
-
Cause: Some instance, possibly this one, has allocated the thread for its use. The thread may not be disabled while in use.
-
Action: Shut down cleanly the instance using the thread.
-
Cause: The thread is not closed. The last instance to use the thread died leaving the thread open. A thread cannot be disabled until it is closed. It is still required for crash or instance recovery.
-
Action: If the database is open, instance recovery should close the thread soon; wait a few minutes. Otherwise open the database; crash recovery will close the thread.
-
Cause: The value of the initialization parameter THREAD is not between 1 and the number of threads allowed by the control file.
-
Action: Shut down the instance, change the value of the initialization parameter and restart, or resize the thread record and/or checkpoint progress record sections of the control file.
-
Cause: The value of the initialization parameter THREAD requests a thread that is not enabled. A thread must be enabled before it can be mounted.
-
Action: Shut down the instance, change the value of the initialization parameter and restart, mounting a different thread. If the database is open in another instance, then the thread may be enabled.
-
Cause: The value of the initialization parameter THREAD requests a thread that has been mounted by another instance. Only one instance may use a thread.
-
Action: Shut down the instance, change the value of the initialization parameter and restart, mounting a different thread.
-
Cause: The value of the initialization parameter THREAD is zero, its default value. There are no threads which have been publicly enabled, and not mounted.
-
Action: Shut down the instance, change the value of the initialization parameter to a thread which is privately enabled and not mounted. If the database is open in another instance, then a thread may be publicly enabled.
-
Cause: This is a rename command for a member of the current log for an open thread. If the database is open anywhere, the log may be in use, so the rename cannot be done.
-
Action: Wait until the log is not current, or mount the database exclusively.
-
Cause: The thread was not specified when adding a log, and the currently mounted thread was chosen by default at mount time. Since the current thread was not specified explicitly the user cannot know which thread the log will be added to.
-
Action: Explicitly specify the thread number either in the initialization parameter THREAD, or in the ADD command.
-
Cause: A thread's current log cannot be dropped even if the thread is closed. A disabled thread usually does not have a current log, but a half completed disable may need to be disabled again.
-
Action: If the database is not open then disable the thread. If the database is open and an instance has the thread open, then the instance can be requested to switch logs. If the database is closed the log can be archived or cleared to force a switch.
-
Cause: A log cannot be dropped or cleared until the thread's checkpoint has advanced out of the log.
-
Action: If the database is not open then open it. Crash recovery will advance the checkpoint. If the database is open force a global checkpoint. If the log is corrupted so that the database cannot be opened, it may be necessary to do incomplete recovery until cancel at this log.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to shrink or take a rollback segment offline that does not belong to this instance.
-
Action: Take only those rollback segments offline that belong to the current instance. To take the rollback segment offline, connect to the instance containing it.
-
Cause: Too many transactions in this segment.
-
Action: Choose a different rollback segment, or reduce the number of concurrent transactions.
-
Cause: Could have been taken offline before by the database administrator or cleaned up by SMON.
-
Action: Check the status of rollback segment in UNDO$ or DBA_ROLLBACK_SEGS to make sure the rollback segment is actually online.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to extend a rollback segment that was already at the MAXEXENTS value.
-
Action: If the value of the MAXEXTENTS storage parameter is less than the maximum allowed by the system, raise this value.
-
Cause: Save undo for the offline tablespace at MAXEXTENTS.
-
Action: Check the storage parameters for the system tablespace. The tablespace needs to be brought back online so the undo can be applied.
-
Cause: A temporary segment tried to extend past MAXEXTENTS.
-
Action: If MAXEXTENTS for the tablespace is less than the system maximum, you can raise that. Otherwise, raise PCTINCREASE for the tablespace.
-
Cause: A table tried to extend past MAXEXTENTS.
-
Action: If MAXEXTENTS is less than the system maximum, raise it. Otherwise, you must re-create with larger initial, next or PCTINCREASE parameters.
-
Cause: An index tried to extend past MAXEXTENTS.
-
Action: If the value of MAXEXTENTS in the index storage clause is less than the maximum (based on your block size), raise it. Otherwise, re-create the index with larger extent sizes so that the total number of extents falls below the maximum.
-
Cause: System does not have Real Application Clusters configured.
-
Action: Obtain Real Application Clusters option.
-
Cause: The rollback segment specified was marked to go offline by the database administrator.
-
Action: Bring the rollback segment online first.
-
Cause: One of the following:
-
Action: For the above, one of the following:
- Bring the tablespace containing the rollback segment online or do not specify the rollback segment in the initialization parameter file.
- If the rollback segment is in use, shut down the instance using the rollback segment. Otherwise, if the rollback segment needs recovery, determine which errors are holding back the rolling back of the transactions and take appropriate action.
-
Cause: A rollback segment can only be used by one instance and an instance is trying to bring a rollback segment online that is already in use.
-
Action: Check that the values set in the initialization parameter file for parameters ROLLBACK_SEGMENTS, ROLLBACK_SEGMENT_INITIAL, and ROLLBACK_SEGMENT_COUNT are correctly set for the instance with the problem. Also check that the instance is using the correct initialization parameter file. Make sure you are not confused about the difference between private and public rollback segments. See the Oracle9i Database Administrator's Guide for more information about using rollback segments in parallel mode.
-
Cause: A rollback segment can only be used by one instance, and an instance is trying to access a rollback segment online that is already in use.
-
Action: Check that the values set in the initialization parameter file for parameters ROLLBACK_SEGMENTS, ROLLBACK_SEGMENT_INITIAL, and ROLLBACK_SEGMENT_COUNT are correctly set for the instance with the problem. Also check that the instance is using the correct initialization parameter file. Make sure you are not confused about the difference between private and public rollback segments. See the Oracle9i Database Administrator's Guide for more information about using rollback segments in parallel mode.
-
Cause: The value of the RECOVERY_COMPATIBLE parameter is set too low to allow this software version to mount in cluster database mode.
-
Action: Either use an earlier software release or advance the RECOVERY_COMPATIBLE parameter. If this happens when no RECOVERY_COMPATIBLE parameter has been specified then set it to the current software release.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to make a tablespace read only while there are active transactions in the database. All transactions must commit or rollback to insure that there is no undo for a tablespace before it can be made read only. This includes in doubt distributed transactions.
-
Action: Prevent any more transactions from being started. Putting the database in restricted mode usually helps. If there are any in doubt transactions they must also be resolved.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to add a datafile to a tablespace that has been set to read only or offline.
-
Action: Make the tablespace online and read write then add the datafile.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to begin or end a backup for a tablespace that has been set to read only.
-
Action: Take the backup without any BEGIN or END commands. The files are not being modified so the backup will be consistent.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to set the system tablespace to read only. The system tablespace must remain read write for database operation.
-
Action: Leave system tablespace read write.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to make tablespace read only that is already read only.
-
Action: Leave tablespace read only, or make read write then make read only again.
-
Cause: A failure while making the tablespace read write left it read only, but the checkpoint was advanced. The tablespace will not be usable after a resetlogs if its files are offline.
-
Action: Repeat the command to make the tablespace read write.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to make a tablespace read write that is not read only. It may be either online or offline.
-
Action: Leave tablespace read write.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to allocate space in a read-only tablespace.
-
Action: Create the object in another tablespace.
-
Cause: An attempt to enable the thread failed after it was half completed. This log was left as the current log even though the thread is still disabled. Since a log switch cannot be done until the thread is enabled, the log cannot be cleared or archived.
-
Action: Complete the thread enable by issuing the ENABLE command again.
-
Cause: An attempt is being made to perform a command that does not make sense when the control file is a restored backup.
-
Action: Wait until after the database has been opened and try again.
-
Cause: Failed to allocate an extent for rollback segment in tablespace.
-
Action: Use ALTER TABLESPACE ADD DATAFILE statement to add one or more files to the tablespace indicated.
-
Cause: Failed to allocate an extent for saving undo entries for the indicated offline tablespace.
-
Action: Check the storage parameters for the SYSTEM tablespace. The tablespace needs to be brought back online so the undo can be applied.
-
Cause: Failed to allocate an extent for temporary segment in tablespace.
-
Action: Use ALTER TABLESPACE ADD DATAFILE statement to add one or more files to the tablespace indicated.
-
Cause: Failed to allocate an extent for table segment in tablespace.
-
Action: Use ALTER TABLESPACE ADD DATAFILE statement to add one or more files to the tablespace indicated.
-
Cause: Failed to allocate an extent for index segment in tablespace.
-
Action: Use ALTER TABLESPACE ADD DATAFILE statement to add one or more files to the tablespace indicated.
-
Cause: Failed to allocate an extent for cluster segment in tablespace.
-
Action: Use ALTER TABLESPACE ADD DATAFILE statement to add one or more files to the tablespace indicated.
-
Cause: A cluster tried to extend past MAXEXTENTS.
-
Action: If MAXEXTENTS is less than the system maximum, raise it. Otherwise, you must re-create with larger initial, next or PCTINCREASE parameters.
-
Cause: The specified value must be an integer.
-
Action: Choose an appropriate integer value.
-
Cause: Failed to find sufficient contiguous space to allocate INITIAL extent for segment being created.
-
Action: Use ALTER TABLESPACE ADD DATAFILE to add additional space to the tablespace or retry with a smaller value for INITIAL.
-
Cause: Failed to find sufficient contiguous space to allocate MINEXTENTS for the segment being created.
-
Action: Use ALTER TABLESPACE ADD DATAFILE to add additional space to the tablespace or retry with smaller value for MINEXTENTS, NEXT or PCTINCREASE.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to make tablespace permanent that is already permanent.
-
Action: Leave tablespace permanent.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to make tablespace temporary that is already temporary.
-
Action: Leave tablespace permanent.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to convert a non-empty tablespace to a temporary tablespace
-
Action: Drop all the objects in the tablespace.
-
Cause: The contents of the tablespace is always changing between PERMANENT and TEMPORARY.
-
Action: Decide what the tablespace contents should be and stay with it.
-
Cause: This is an internal error.
-
Action: Contact Oracle Support Services.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to mount, recover or activate a standby database without a standby control file.
-
Action: Create a standby control file before attempting to use the database as a standby database.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to mount, recover, or open a standby database without the appropriate command option to designate a standby database.
-
Action: Use the standby option or appropriate commands, or mount with the primary control file.
-
Cause: There is no more room in the control file for adding tablespaces.
-
Action: Resize the control file or drop other tablespaces.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to take a datafile offline in a standby database without specifying the DROP option. Files that are offline in a standby database are not recovered, and are likely to be unusable if the standby is activated. Note that specifying DROP does not prevent bringing the file online later.
-
Action: Specify the DROP option or leave the file online.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to activate a standby database with a control file that has not been recovered to the same point as the datafiles. Most likely the control file was just copied from the primary database and has not been used for recovery.
-
Action: Recover the standby database until all the files are consistent.
-
Cause: Standby database recovery noticed that a file was added to the primary database, but is not available on the standby.
-
Action: Either copy the file from the primary database or do an ALTER DATABASE CREATE DATAFILE command on the standby to create a file to recover.
-
Cause: The currently mounted control file is a backup control file, and attempting to create a control file for a standby database.
-
Action: Complete any needed recovery and open the database with the resetlogs option.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to create a standby control file, but the control file was either recently created via CREATE CONTROLFILE or an incomplete recovery has been done. Thus the datafiles in the control file and the ones in the data dictionary may not match.
-
Action: Open the database, then retry the operation.
-
Cause: This datafile was not in the control file after an incomplete recovery or CREATE CONTROLFILE. Since information from its header is needed for standby database recovery, we cannot create a standby control file.
-
Action: Find the file and bring it online. If desired it may be taken offline again. If you intend to drop this file, then taking it offline with the DROP option will avoid this error.
-
Cause: Recovery encountered redo that indicates this file was dropped from the database and another file was added using the same file number. This implies that a CREATE CONTROLFILE command was given the old file which was dropped rather than the latest file.
-
Action: Rebuild the control file using CREATE CONTROLFILE, and give the correct file.
-
Cause: The MAX_COMMIT_PROPAGATION_DELAY initialization parameter is inconsistent with those in other instances.
-
Action: Make sure all instances have the same MAX_COMMIT_PROPAGATION_DELAY.
-
Cause: When the given file name is converted to the name used for the standby database, the converted name is bigger than the maximum allowed file name.
-
Action: Change the value of the initialization parameter DB_FILE_STANDBY_NAME_CONVERT or LOG_FILE_STANDBY_NAME_CONVERT to convert to a valid file name.
-
Cause: The DB_FILE_STANDBY_NAME_CONVERT or LOG_FILE_STANDBY_NAME_CONVERT initialization parameters are not the same as in other instances that already have the database mounted.
-
Action: Change the value of the initialization parameters DB_FILE_STANDBY_NAME_CONVERT and LOG_FILE_STANDBY_NAME_CONVERT to match other instances.
-
Cause: The initialization parameter does not have an even number of strings for its value. The odd numbered strings are patterns to be found in file names. The even numbered strings are used to replace the corresponding patterns when found in file names.
-
Action: Specify an even number of strings for the parameter, or omit the parameter.
-
Cause: An attempt to activate a standby database was made when the database was not mounted EXCLUSIVE or was already open.
-
Action: Mount the database EXCLUSIVE and retry the ACTIVATE command.
-
Cause: Failed to allocate an extent for a LOB segment in tablespace.
-
Action: Use ALTER TABLESPACE ADD DATAFILE statement to add one or more files to the tablespace indicated.
-
Cause: A LOB segment tried to extend past MAXEXTENTS.
-
Action: If MAXEXTENTS for the tablespace is less than the system maximum, you can raise that. Otherwise, raise PCTINCREASE for the tablespace.
-
Cause: Temporary space (usually for sorting) could not be allocated in either main storage or a temporary file. An attempt was made to allocate the space from the tablespace named, but the database is opened read only. The database open requires a sort work space.
-
Action: Either allow sufficient workspace in main storage (SORT_AREA_SIZE initialization parameter), or create a temporary tablespace before making the database read only. Use ALTER TABLESPACE ADD TEMPFILE statement to add temporary files to the temporary tablespace.
-
Cause: Failed to allocate an extent for index segment in tablespace.
-
Action: Use ALTER TABLESPACE ADD DATAFILE statement to add one or more files to the tablespace indicated.
-
Cause: A table tried to extend past MAXEXTENTS.
-
Action: If MAXEXTENTS is less than the system maximum, raise it. Otherwise, you must re-create with larger initial, next or PCTINCREASE parameters.
-
Cause: An index tried to extend past MAXEXTENTS.
-
Action: If MAXEXTENTS is less than the system max, raise it. Otherwise, you must re-create with larger initial, next or PCTINCREASE parameters.
-
Cause: The number of files for a given tablespace has reached its maximum value.
-
Action: Resize existing files in the tablespace, or partition the objects among multiple tablespaces, or move some objects to a different tablespace.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to change the tablespace default logging attribute (LOGGING or NOLOGGING) to be the same as the existing logging attribute.
-
Action: Change the specified logging attribute.
-
Cause: Failed to allocate an extent for table segment in tablespace.
-
Action: Use ALTER TABLESPACE ADD DATAFILE statement to add one or more files to the tablespace indicated.
-
Cause: There was a syntax in the initialization parameter.
-
Action: Fix the syntax error and restart the instance.
-
Cause: The sort area size was too small to fit two records in memory.
-
Action: Increase the
SORT_AREA_SIZE
initialization parameter. -
Cause: Failed to allocate an extent for LOB segment in tablespace.
-
Action: Use ALTER TABLESPACE ADD DATAFILE statement to add one or more files to the tablespace indicated.
-
Cause: Failed to allocate an extent for LOB segment in tablespace.
-
Action: Use ALTER TABLESPACE ADD DATAFILE statement to add one or more files to the tablespace indicated.
-
Cause: A LOB segment tried to extend past MAXEXTENTS.
-
Action: If MAXEXTENTS is less than the system max, raise it. Otherwise, you must re-create with larger initial, next or PCTINCREASE parameters.
-
Cause: A LOB segment tried to extend past MAXEXTENTS.
-
Action: If MAXEXTENTS is less than the system max, raise it. Otherwise, you must re-create with larger initial, next or PCTINCREASE parameters.
-
Cause: Version 8.0.1 database may not have shut down cleanly.
-
Action: May have to reload the 8.0.1 database and shut down cleanly.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to mount, a database as a clone when it is already mounted by another instance not as a clone or attempting to use a current control file for a clone.
-
Action: Mount without the clone option or use a backup control file and shut down the other instances before mounting as a clone.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to mount a clone database without the appropriate command option to designate a clone database.
-
Action: Use the clone option or appropriate commands, or mount with the primary control file.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to online a rollback segment in a clone database.
-
Action: Do not use this command.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to online a tablespace or begin another point in time import while a point in time import is already in progress.
-
Action: Wait until the import completes.
-
Cause: The string literal is longer than 4000 characters.
-
Action: Use a string literal of at most 4000 characters. Longer values may only be entered using bind variables.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to create a cluster index with the UNIQUE attribute.
-
Action: Remove UNIQUE from the CREATE INDEX statement.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to create a cluster index using the NOSORT option.
-
Action: Remove NOSORT from the CREATE INDEX statement.
-
Cause: Attempt to specify BY ACCESS | SESSION in a NOAUDIT statement.
-
Action: Remove BY ACCESS | SESSION.
-
Cause: An outer join appears in an or clause.
-
Action: If A and B are predicates, to get the effect of (A(+) or B), try (select where (A(+) and not B)) union all (select where (B)).
-
Cause: A grant was being performed on a view and the grant option was not present for an underlying object.
-
Action: Obtain the grant option on all underlying objects of the view.
-
Cause: The USERENV('COMMITSCN') function can only be used once in a transaction.
-
Action: Re-write the transaction to use USERENV('COMMITSCN') only once.
-
Cause: The attempted conversion of a character string to a number failed because the character string was not a valid numeric literal. Only numeric fields or character fields containing numeric data may be used in arithmetic functions or expressions. Only numeric fields may be added to or subtracted from dates.
-
Action: Check the character strings in the function or expression. Check that they contain only numbers, a sign, a decimal point, and the character "E" or "e" and retry the operation.
-
Cause: During CREATE TABLE, a zero-length column was specified, for example, CHAR(0).
-
Action: Correct the column declaration so that the length is at least 1 and try the operation again.
-
Cause: Floating point precision is too small or large.
-
Action: Correct and retry.
-
Cause: The function USERNEV('COMMMITSCN') is only allowed as a top-level expression in the VALUES clause of an INSERT statements, and on the right hand side of an assignment in an UPDATE statement.
-
Action: Correct the use of the function.
-
Cause: A table name was used in a statement in which tables are not permitted.
-
Action: Enter a valid table statement or use the current statement on the appropriate object.
-
Cause: The precision specified for a number column in a CREATE/ALTER TABLE or CREATE CLUSTER statement must be a digit between 1 and 38. If no precision is specified, a default precision of 22 digits is used.
-
Action: Specify numeric precision between 1 and 38 and retry the statement.
-
Cause: The scale specified for a numeric field in a CREATE/ALTER TABLE or CREATE CLUSTER statement is not in the valid range. It should be between -84 and 127.
-
Action: Specify a numeric scale between -84 and 127. If a number is not specified, the default scale of the column is 0 decimal places.
-
Cause: A database link name does not follow the at-sign (@) in a reference to a table in a remote database.
-
Action: Correct the reference and retry the operation. The correct syntax for denoting a table in a remote database follows:
username.table_name@ database_name
Spaces before and after the at-sign (@) are optional.
-
Cause: The number of column names specified in a CREATE VIEW statement did not correspond to the number of columns listed in the SELECT clause. If column names are specified in a CREATE VIEW statement, exactly one name must be specified for each column or expression in the SELECT clause.
-
Action: Specify one view column name for each column in the SELECT clause.
-
Cause: Through a series of CREATE and DROP VIEW statements, a view was defined that refers to itself. For example, VIEW1 might include a column from VIEW2 that is defined as a column in VIEW1. View definitions may be seen by querying the data dictionary.
-
Action: Check the view definitions, remove any circular references, and retry the statements.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to use an UPDATE, INSERT, or DELETE statement on a view that contains expressions or functions or was derived from more than one table. If a join operation was used to create the view or the view contains virtual columns derived from functions or expressions, then the view may only be queried.
-
Action: UPDATE, INSERT, or DELETE rows in the base tables instead and restrict the operations on the view to queries.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to use an INSERT, UPDATE, or DELETE statement on an expression in a view.
-
Action: INSERT, UPDATE, or DELETE data in the base tables, instead of the view.
-
Cause: An incorrect value is specified for the parameter.
-
Action: Correct the parameter and reissue the statement.
-
Cause: An invalid option was specified in an ALTER TABLE statement.
-
Action: Check the statement syntax, specify a valid option, and retry the statement.
-
Cause: An AUDIT or NOAUDIT statement contained WHENEVER followed by something other than SUCCESSFUL or NOT SUCCESSFUL.
-
Action: Correct the WHENEVER clause and retry the statement.
-
Cause: The lock mode entered was not recognized.
-
Action: Enter one of the following: SHARE, ROW SHARE, EXCLUSIVE, ROW EXCLUSIVE, SHARE ROW EXCLUSIVE, or SHARE UPDATE.
-
Cause: In a LOCK TABLE statement, the keyword IN was missing.
-
Action: Place the keyword IN and lock mode directly after the table name in the LOCK TABLE statement and retry the statement.
-
Cause: In a LOCK TABLE statement, the keyword MODE was missing. The keyword MODE must directly follow the specified lock mode.
-
Action: Check the statement syntax, insert the keyword MODE where required, and retry the statement.
-
Cause: An initial double quote (") was found without a closing quote. If an identifier contains a blank or special characters other than $, #, or _, it must be enclosed in double quotes.
-
Action: Add a closing double quote (") to the end of the identifier.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to use two double quotes ("") as an identifier. An identifier must be at least one character long.
-
Action: Insert at least one character between the double quotes in the identifier. If a blank identifier is required, specify a blank space between the double quotes (" ").
-
Cause: The indicated comment or hint begun with the /* token did not have the terminating */.
-
Action: Properly terminate the comment or hint with a */.
-
Cause: The indexed function uses SYSDATE or the user environment.
-
Action: PL/SQL functions must be pure (RNDS, RNPS, WNDS, WNPS). SQL expressions must not use SYSDATE, USER, USERENV(), or anything else dependent on the session state. NLS-dependent functions are OK.
-
Cause: The INTO clause may not be used in a subquery.
-
Action: Check the syntax, place the INTO clause in the top-level query, and retry the statement.
-
Cause: A colon in a bind variable or INTO specification was followed by an inappropriate name, perhaps a reserved word.
-
Action: Change the variable name and retry the operation.
-
Cause: An indicator variable is not permitted in this context.
-
Action: Remove the indicator variable and retry the operation.
-
Cause: A column name was specified improperly in the current SQL statement.
-
Action: Check the statement's syntax, especially references to column names, and retry the statement.
-
Cause: This SQL statement does not allow a qualified column name, such as username.table.column or table.column.
-
Action: Remove the qualifications from the column and retry the operation.
-
Cause: Grantor is not allowed to grant or revoke object or system privileges to self.
-
Action: Issue the GRANT or REVOKE of system privileges from another database administrator account.
-
Cause: Although it is possible to GRANT update privileges on a column-by-column basis, it is only possible to REVOKE them for an entire table.
-
Action: Do not identify specific columns. To revoke update privileges for certain columns, use REVOKE for the entire table and GRANT the user privileges for specific columns.
-
Cause: An invalid option is specified in the ALTER DUMP UNDO command.
-
Action: Correct and reissue the command.
-
Cause: The deleted table either had no key preserved tables, had more than one key-preserved table, or the key-preserved table was an unmerged view or a table from a read-only view.
-
Action: Redefine the view or delete it from the underlying base tables.
-
Cause: When adding a table to a cluster, the definition of the column in the table was inconsistent with the definition of the column in the cluster.
-
Action: The table cannot be added to the cluster until all cluster column definitions are consistent.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to add a LONG column to a table which already had a LONG column. Note that even if the LONG column currently in the table has already been marked unused, another LONG column may not be added until the unused columns are dropped.
-
Action: Remove the LONG column currently in the table by using the ALTER TABLE command.
-
Cause: Expecting an extent or block number but something else was specified.
-
Action: Correct the error and reissue the command.
-
Cause: A quoted string must be terminated with a single quote mark (').
-
Action: Insert the closing quote and retry the statement.
-
Cause: Expecting an object number but something else was specified.
-
Action: Correct the error and reissue the command.
-
Cause: It is not possible to define a new column as NOT NULL if rows already exist in the table being modified.
-
Action: Retry the statement without the NOT NULL specification.
-
Cause: A user function has been improperly defined.
-
Action: Contact Oracle Support Services.
-
Cause: The argument or arguments specified for the function are not valid in this context.
-
Action: Check the definition of the function and correct the arguments.
-
Cause: The primary table is the base table against which the update, insert or delete operation is finally being done. For delete either there is no primary table in the join query or there is more than one. For update or insert the columns specified map to more than one base table.
-
Action: Change the join specification.
-
Cause: This is an internal error message not normally issued.
-
Action: Contact Oracle Support Services.
-
Cause: For deletes, the table being deleted from is outer joined to some other table. For updates, either the table being updated is outer- joined to some other table, or some table reachable from the primary table is being outer joined to a table not reachable from the primary table.
-
Action: Change the join specification.
-
Cause: A row of a join query table is being updated using a row of a table that is not guaranteed to have exactly one value for the row being updated.
-
Action: Change the join specification.
-
Cause: A table or view name was specified with a period (.) or identified with an invalid prefix.
-
Action: Check that the object is identified correctly and if necessary remove the period from the name.
-
Cause: The name of a data dictionary object was used outside the FROM clause of a SELECT statement. The only operation allowed on a data dictionary object is to SELECT from it.
-
Action: Restrict operations on data dictionary objects to queries.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to use a single expression without a subquery to update a list of columns.
-
Action: Check the syntax for using subqueries to update data and add the necessary subquery.
-
Cause: A number entered exceeds the limit of 255 characters, including digits, sign, decimal point, and exponent.
-
Action: Shorten the number string, perhaps by expressing it in scientific notation, for example, 1.85E9 instead of 1,850,000,000.
-
Cause: During a CREATE of a clustered table, the user attempted to specify more than one CLUSTER option.
-
Action: Remove the extra CLUSTER option.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to use the CLUSTER option within a CREATE CLUSTER statement.
-
Action: Remove the CLUSTER clause and try again.
-
Cause: During a CREATE or ALTER of a clustered table, the user attempted to enter one or more of the following options: INITRANS, MAXTRANS, PCTFREE, PCTUSED, STORAGE, TABLESPACE, CACHE, NOCACHE. These options may only be specified for the cluster itself.
-
Action: Remove the illegal option(s).
-
Cause: Expecting the value of LEVEL but something else was specified.
-
Action: Correct the error and reissue the command.
-
Cause: Column datatypes were specified in a SELECT statement used to create and load a table directly.
-
Action: Remove column datatypes. The datatypes of the SELECT list expressions are automatically used as the column datatypes.
-
Cause: The same option for ALTER DUMP UNDO was specified twice.
-
Action: Remove the redundant options and reissue the command.
-
Cause: Through a series of CREATE synonym statements, a synonym was defined that referred to itself. For example, the following definitions are circular:
CREATE SYNONYM s1 for s2 CREATE SYNONYM s2 for s3 CREATE SYNONYM s3 for s1
-
Action: Change one synonym definition so that it applies to a base table or view and retry the operation.
-
Cause: Columns belonging to more than one underlying table were either inserted into or updated.
-
Action: Phrase the statement as two or more separate statements.
-
Cause: This version of Oracle does not support the WITH GRANT OPTION.
-
Action: Remove the WITH GRANT option.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to use more than 255 levels of nested subqueries.
-
Action: Merge some of the subqueries into their containing queries, until there are less than 255 levels of nesting.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to insert or update columns of a join view which map to a non-key-preserved table.
-
Action: Modify the underlying base tables directly.
-
Cause: In a COMMENT statement, the Comment following the keyword IS must be a quoted string literal.
-
Action: Check that the Comment is a string literal.
-
Cause: UNRECOVERABLE was specified in a CREATE TABLE statement without also specifying a populating subquery with an AS clause.
-
Action: Do not specify UNRECOVERABLE.
-
Cause: A CREATE CLUSTER, or clustered CREATE TABLE statement specified UNRECOVERABLE.
-
Action: Do not specify UNRECOVERABLE.
-
Cause: RECOVERABLE was specified more than once, UNRECOVERABLE was specified more than once, or both RECOVERABLE and UNRECOVERABLE were specified in a CREATE TABLE or CREATE INDEX or ALTER INDEX REBUILD statement.
-
Action: Remove all but one of the RECOVERABLE or UNRECOVERABLE clauses and reissue the statement.
-
Cause: A CREATE TABLE or CREATE INDEX statement specified RECOVERABLE when the database was running in NOARCHIVELOG mode. Since logs are not being archived, they will be overwritten and the object being created cannot be recovered from a backup taken before the object was created.
-
Action: Do not specify RECOVERABLE, or restart the database with media recovery enabled.
-
Cause: Either an ORDER BY item for a set expression is not a column number, or the ORDER BY item is not the number of a SELECT list column.
-
Action: The ORDER BY item must be a number between 1 and the number of columns in the SELECT list. Check the column number and retry the statement.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to use a FOR UPDATE clause on the result of a set expression involving GROUP BY, DISTINCT, UNION, INTERSECT, or MINUS.
-
Action: Check the syntax, remove the FOR UPDATE clause, and retry the statement.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to use more than one WHERE, GROUP BY, CONNECT BY, or HAVING clause in the query.
-
Action: Combine the duplicate clauses into a single clause and retry the statement.
-
Cause: A START WITH clause was specified without a CONNECT BY clause.
-
Action: Check the syntax, specify a CONNECT BY clause, and retry the statement.
-
Cause: All of the queries participating in a set expression do not contain the same number of SELECT list columns.
-
Action: Check that all the queries in the set expression have the same number of SELECT list columns.
-
Cause: A SELECT list item corresponds to a SELECT list item with a different datatype in another query of the same set expression.
-
Action: Check that all corresponding SELECT list items have the same datatypes. Use the TO_NUMBER, TO_CHAR, and TO_DATE functions to do explicit data conversions.
-
Cause: There is an incorrect ORDER BY item. The query is a SELECT DISTINCT query with an ORDER BY clause. In this context, all ORDER BY items must be constants, SELECT list expressions, or expressions whose operands are constants or SELECT list expressions.
-
Action: Remove the inappropriate ORDER BY item from the SELECT list and retry the statement.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to create a table or view with more than 1000 columns, or to add more columns to a table or view which pushes it over the maximum allowable limit of 1000. Note that unused columns in the table are counted toward the 1000 column limit.
-
Action: If the error is a result of a CREATE command, then reduce the number of columns in the command and resubmit. If the error is a result of an ALTER TABLE command, then there are two options:
-
Cause: While creating an index, more than 32 columns were specified.
-
Action: Remove some columns from the index definition. If all the columns indexed are required, split them into two indexes.
-
Cause: More than 32 columns were specified in the cluster key.
-
Action: Remove some of the columns from the cluster key definition. Consider concatenating multiple character strings into a single column.
-
Cause: More than 254 columns or expressions were specified in a list.
-
Action: Remove some of the expressions from the list.
-
Cause: A relational operator is not allowed in this context. When comparing lists, use only an operator that tests for equivalence, such as =, !=, or IN.
-
Action: Rephrase the query so that it only compares lists for equivalence. For example, the following clause is invalid:
WHERE (A,B) > ((C,D), (E,F))
It may be necessary to compare individual columns separately. For example, to see if A and B are respectively greater than C and D, use WHERE A>B AND C>D instead of WHERE (A,B)>(C,D).
-
Cause: The keyword ANY or ALL was missing.
-
Action: Check the statement syntax and add ANY or ALL where appropriate.
-
Cause: The EXCEPTION keyword is missing from the ENABLE clause.
-
Action: Correct the syntax.
-
Cause: expression(+) relop (subquery) is not allowed.
-
Action: Either remove the (+) or make a view out of the subquery. In V6 and before, the (+) was just ignored in this case.
-
Cause: A literal specified in a date format was too large. If a literal is entered as a date, it must be less than 220 characters long.
-
Action: Use only literals less than 220 characters long in the date format.
-
Cause: The date format string was too long to process. This should occur only if several long literals are specified as part of a date.
-
Action: Remove long literals from the date format string.
-
Cause: An invalid Julian date was entered. Valid Julian dates run from 1 to 3,442,447.
-
Action: Enter a valid Julian date between 1 and 3,442,447.
-
Cause: This is an internal error message that is not likely to occur. It is usually caused by a failure in the system clock.
-
Action: Investigate the system clock and the process that requested the date or time. If necessary, contact Oracle Support Services.
-
Cause: The timezone information file was not properly read.
-
Action: Please contact Oracle Support Services.
-
Cause: A format code was listed twice in a date specification. Each format code may be specified only once in the function TO_DATE.
-
Action: Remove the duplicate format code from the date specification, then retry the operation.
-
Cause: Both a Julian date and a day of the year were specified in the TO_DATE function. If a Julian date is specified, the day of the year (DDD) may not be specified, as it is contained in the Julian date.
-
Action: Remove the day of the year or the Julian date from the specification, then retry the operation.
-
Cause: More than one year format code was listed in a date specification. Only one of the following year format codes may be specified in a date: YYYY, YYY, YY, Y.
-
Action: Remove all but one year format from the date specification.
-
Cause: More than one hour format code was listed in a date specification. Only one of the following hour format codes may be specified in a date: HH, HH12, HH24.
-
Action: Remove all but one hour format from the date specification.
-
Cause: Both types of meridian indicators, AM and PM, were listed in a date specification. If one of the meridian indicator format masks, such as AM or A.M., is specified in the date, the other may not be specified.
-
Action: Use one meridian indicator format, with or without periods, consistently.
-
Cause: Both types of BC/AD indicators were listed in a date specification. If one of the BC/AD indicator format masks, such as BC or B.C., is specified in the date, the other may not be specified.
-
Action: Use one BC/AD indicator format, with or without periods, consistently.
-
Cause: More than one month format code was listed in a date specification. Only one of the following month format codes may be specified in a date: MM, MON, MONTH.
-
Action: Remove all but one month format from the date specification.
-
Cause: More than one day-of-the-week format code was listed in a date specification. Only one of the following day-of-the-week format codes may be specified in a date: D, DY, DAY.
-
Action: Remove all but one day-of-the-week format from the date specification.
-
Cause: A date specification contained both a 24-hour time format code and a meridian indicator code. If hours are specified using the 24-hour time format (HH24), a meridian indicator, AM or PM, may not be specified.
-
Action: Remove the meridian indicator format code, AM/PM or A.M./P.M., or the 24-hour time format code, HH24, from the date specification.
-
Cause: A date specification contained both a signed year and a B.C./A.D. indicator. If the year is specified with a sign, such as SYYYY, then B.C. or A.D. is implicit in the date and must not be entered.
-
Action: Remove the B.C./A.D. indicator from the date specification.
-
Cause: A date specification contained an invalid format code. Only the following may be specified when entering a date: year, month, day, hours, minutes, seconds, Julian day, A.M./P.M. and B.C./A.D.
-
Action: Remove the invalid format code from the date specification.
-
Cause: A date specification contained an invalid format code.
-
Action: Check that only valid date format codes are specified.
-
Cause: An era format code, E or EE, was specified with a calendar which does not use era information.
-
Action: Retry the operation using a date format mask which does not contain era format codes.
-
Cause: A valid date format picture included extra data. The first part of the format picture was converted into a valid date, but the remaining data was not required.
-
Action: Check the specifications for date format pictures and correct the statement.
-
Cause: The wrong year was specified with a Julian day. If a year is specified with a Julian date, it must be the year in which the Julian date occurs.
-
Action: Remove the year value from the date specification or enter the correct year for the Julian date.
-
Cause: A Julian date was specified with the day of the year but the day did not correspond to the Julian date. If the day of the year is specified with a Julian date, it must be the same day as the Julian date.
-
Action: Remove the day of the year value from the date specification or enter the correct day for the Julian date.
-
Cause: The wrong month was specified with a Julian date. If a month is specified with a Julian date, it must be the month in which the Julian date occurs.
-
Action: Remove the month value from the date specification or enter the correct month for the Julian date.
-
Cause: A Julian date was specified with the day of the month, but the month day did not correspond to the Julian date. If the day of the month is specified with a Julian date, it must be the same day of the month as the Julian date.
-
Action: Remove the day of the month value from the date specification or enter the correct day of the month for the Julian date.
-
Cause: A Julian date was specified with the day of the week, but the weekday did not correspond to the Julian date. If the day of the week is specified with a Julian date, it must be the same day of the week as the Julian date.
-
Action: Remove the day of the week value from the date specification or enter the correct day of the week for the Julian date.
-
Cause: The wrong hour was specified with seconds in the day. If an hour is specified with seconds past midnight (SSSSS), it must be the hour in which the seconds value falls.
-
Action: Remove the hour value from the date specification or specify the correct hour for the seconds past midnight.
-
Cause: A date specification contained both minutes of the hour and seconds in the day but the values did not correspond. If both minutes in the hour (MI) and seconds past midnight (SSSSS) are specified, the minutes value must be the minute in which the seconds value will occur.
-
Action: Remove the minutes value from the date specification or enter the correct minute value for the specified seconds value.
-
Cause: A date specification contained both seconds of the minute and seconds in the day but the values did not correspond. If both types of seconds are specified, the seconds of the minute value (SS) must be the second in which the seconds past midnight value (SSSSS) will fall.
-
Action: Remove the seconds of the minute value from the date specification or enter a value that corresponds to the given seconds in the day.
-
Cause: The day of the month specified in the date is invalid for the given month. The day of the month (DD) must be between 1 and the number of days in the month.
-
Action: Enter a valid day of the month for the specified month.
-
Cause: The data to be converted to date format was incomplete; the date format picture was longer than the input data.
-
Action: Either add more input or shorten the date picture format, then retry the operation.
-
Cause: A date specified a year that is not in the valid date range. A valid date is any date between January 1, 4712 B.C. and December 31, 9999 A.D.
-
Action: Enter a valid date value between 4712 B.C. and 9999 A.D.
-
Cause: An invalid value was specified for the quarter of the year in a date. The quarter (Q) must be between 1 and 4.
-
Action: Enter a value for quarter between 1 and 4.
-
Cause: A date specified an invalid month. Valid months are: January-December, for format code MONTH, and Jan-Dec, for format code MON.
-
Action: Enter a valid month value in the correct format.
-
Cause: An invalid value was specified for the week of the year in a date. Week of the year (WW) must be between 1 and 52.
-
Action: Enter a week of the year value between 1 and 52.
-
Cause: An invalid value was specified for the week of the month in a date. Week of the month (W) must be between 1 and 5.
-
Action: Enter a week of the month value between 1 and 5.
-
Cause: A date specified an invalid day of the week. Valid days are:
-
Action: Enter a valid day of the week value in the correct format.
-
Cause: The day of the month listed in a date is invalid for the specified month. The day of the month (DD) must be between 1 and the number of days in that month.
-
Action: Enter a valid day value for the specified month.
-
Cause: An invalid day of the year was specified in a date. Day of the year (DDD) must be between 1 and 365 for a non-leap year or 1 and 366 for a leap year.
-
Action: Enter a day of the year value between 1 and 365 (or 366).
-
Cause: An invalid hour was specified for a date using the 12-hour time format. If a 12-hour format code (HH or HH12) is used, the specified hour must be between 1 and 12.
-
Action: Enter an hour value between 1 and 12.
-
Cause: An invalid hour was specified for a date using the 24-hour time format. If the 24-hour format code (HH24) is listed, the specified hour must be between 0 and 23.
-
Action: Enter an hour value between 0 and 23.
-
Cause: An invalid minute value was specified in a date. Minutes must be between 0 and 59.
-
Action: Enter a minute value between 0 and 59.
-
Cause: An invalid seconds value was specified in a date. Seconds must be between 0 and 59 if the seconds format code (SS) is used.
-
Action: Enter a seconds value between 0 and 59.
-
Cause: An invalid value for seconds in the day was specified in a date. Seconds must be between 0 and 86399 if the seconds past midnight format code (SSSSS) is used.
-
Action: Specify a seconds value between 0 and 86399.
-
Cause: An invalid Julian date was entered.
-
Action: Enter a valid Julian date between 1 and 5373484.
-
Cause: A date specification contained a meridian indicator format code but a valid meridian indicator was not specified. If a meridian indicator code, A.M./P.M. or AM/PM, is included in a date format, the date must include a valid meridian indicator.
-
Action: Specify the meridian indicator in the correct format, A.M./AM or P.M./PM.
-
Cause: A date specification contained a BC/AD format code but a valid BC/AD indicator was not specified. If one of the BC/AD format codes, BC/AD or B.C./A.D., is specified in a date format, the date must include BC/B.C. or AD/A.D.
-
Action: Specify the BC/AD indicator in the date using the correct format.
-
Cause: An incorrect time zone code was specified for the NEW_TIME function.
-
Action: Correct the invalid time zone code, then retry the operation.
-
Cause: The input data to be converted using a date format model was incorrect. The input data did not contain a number where a number was required by the format model.
-
Action: Fix the input data or the date format model to make sure the elements match in number and type. Then retry the operation.
-
Cause: The input data to be converted using a date format model was incorrect. The input data did not contain a letter where a letter was required by the format model.
-
Action: Fix the input data or the date format model to make sure the elements match in number and type. Then retry the operation.
-
Cause: A week number outside the range 1 to 53 was specified.
-
Action: Use only a value within the valid range for the week number.
-
Cause: Literals in the input must be the same length as literals in the format string (with the exception of leading white space). If the "FX" modifier has been toggled on, the literal must match exactly, with no extra white space.
-
Action: Correct the format string to match the literal.
-
Cause: When the FX and FM format codes are specified for an input date, then the number of digits must be exactly the number specified by the format code. For example, 9 will not match the format specifier DD but 09 will.
-
Action: Correct the input date or turn off the FX or FM format specifier in the format string.
-
Cause: The year is not supported for the current calendar.
-
Action: Check the documentation to find out what years are supported for the current calendar.
-
Cause: Your calendar does not extend to the specified date.
-
Action: Specify a date which is legal for this calendar.
-
Cause: Era input does not match a known era.
-
Action: Provide a valid era on input.
-
Cause: This is an internal error.
-
Action: Contact Oracle Support Services.
-
Cause: The character string you specified is not a valid interval.
-
Action: Specify a valid interval.
-
Cause: The leading precision of the interval is too small to store the specified interval.
-
Action: Increase the leading precision of the interval or specify an interval with a smaller leading precision.
-
Cause: Not an error.
-
Action: No action required.
-
Cause: The intervals or datetimes are not mutually comparable.
-
Action: Specify a pair of intervals or datetimes that are mutually comparable.
-
Cause: The number of seconds specified was greater than 59.
-
Action: Specify a value for seconds that is 59 or smaller.
-
Cause: Not an error.
-
Action: No action required.
-
Cause: The leading precision of the interval is too small to store the specified interval.
-
Action: Increase the leading precision of the interval or specify an interval with a smaller leading precision.
-
Cause: The time zone hour specified was not in the valid range.
-
Action: Specify a time zone hour between -12 and 13.
-
Cause: The time zone minute specified was not in the valid range.
-
Action: Specify a time zone minute between -59 and 59.
-
Cause: The specified year was not in range.
-
Action: Specify a year that is greater than or equal to -4713.
-
Cause: This is an internal error.
-
Action: Contact Oracle Support Services.
-
Cause: The specified field was not found in the datetime or interval.
-
Action: Make sure that the specified field is in the datetime or interval.
-
Cause: The specified hh25 field was not in the valid range.
-
Action: Specify an hh25 field between 0 and 24.
-
Cause: The specified fractional seconds were not in the valid range.
-
Action: Specify a value for fractional seconds between 0 and 999999999.
-
Cause: The region id referenced an invalid region.
-
Action: Please contact Oracle Support Services.
-
Cause: The specified region name was not found.
-
Action: Please contact Oracle Support Services.
-
Cause: The region was changing state and the overlap flag was disabled.
-
Action: Please contact Oracle Support Services.
-
Cause: An NLS error was detected.
-
Action: Look for additional error messages and take appropriate action. If there are no additional errors, contact Oracle Support Services.
-
Cause: This is an internal error.
-
Action: Contact Oracle Support Services.
-
Cause: While trying to truncate or round dates, extra data was found in the date format picture.
-
Action: Check the syntax of the date format picture and retry.
-
Cause: An invalid precision code was specified in a date.
-
Action: Enter a valid precision code in the date format. Valid precision types are: century, year, month, day, Julian date, hours, minutes, and seconds.
-

-
Cause: AUDIT or NOAUDIT on a sequence number specifies an auditing option that is not legal for sequence numbers.
-
Action: The following options may not be used for sequence numbers and should be removed: COMMENT, DELETE, INDEX, INSERT, LOCK, RENAME, UPDATE, REFERENCES, EXECUTE.
-
Cause: AUDIT or NOAUDIT on a view specifies an auditing option that is not legal for views.
-
Action: The following options may not be used for views and should be removed: ALTER, INDEX, REFERENCES, EXECUTE.
-
Cause: An expected keyword was not used for DATAFILE/TEMPFILE clause
-
Action: Use correct syntax.
-
Cause: There is not a user or role by that name.
-
Action: Re-specify the name.
-
Cause: User does not exist in the system.
-
Action: Verify the user name is correct.
-
Cause: Role by that name does not exist.
-
Action: Verify you are using the correct role name.
-
Cause: There is already a user or role with that name.
-
Action: Specify a different user name.
-
Cause: There is already a user or role with that name.
-
Action: Specify a different role name.
-
Cause: Cascade is required to remove this user from the system. The user own's object which will need to be dropped.
-
Action: Specify cascade.
-
Cause: Cannot drop the user's objects; someone has them locked.
-
Action: Use the lock monitor to determine who has the objects locked.
-
Cause: Set role can only be performed with roles granted directly to your account (for example, a sub-role cannot be enabled).
-
Action: Do not try to set the role.
-
Cause: The initialization parameter MAX_ENABLED_ROLES has been exceeded.
-
Action: Increase MAX_ENABLED_ROLES and warm start the database.
-
Cause: Role cannot have a privilege with the grant option.
-
Action: Perform the grant without the grant option.
-
Cause: You can only revoke privileges you granted.
-
Action: Do not revoke these privileges.
-
Cause: In order to grant a privilege, you must first have the privilege with the grant option.
-
Action: Obtain the privilege with the grant option and try again.
-
Cause: "ALL" was specified but the user does not have any privileges with the grant option.
-
Action: Do not grant privileges on that object.
-
Cause: AUDIT or NOAUDIT was specified for an object that cannot be audited.
-
Action: Do not attempt to AUDIT the object.
-
Cause: UNLIMITED TABLESPACE, REFERENCES, INDEX, SYSDBA or SYSOPER privilege cannot be granted to a role.
-
Action: Grant privilege directly to the user.
-
Cause: The operation requires the ADMIN option on the role.
-
Action: Obtain the grant option and retry.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to create a stored object using privileges from a role. Stored objects cannot use privileges from roles.
-
Action: Grant the privileges required to the user directly.
-
Cause: Roles cannot be granted circularly. Also, a role cannot be granted to itself.
-
Action: Do not perform the grant.
-
Cause: A user or role name was expected.
-
Action: Specify a user or role name.
-
Cause: Users and roles do not have owners.
-
Action: Do not specify an owner.
-
Cause: A valid role name was expected.

-
Action: Change the application or command to use a correct identifier.
-
Cause: The ROLE keyword is required here.
-
Action: Specify the ROLE keyword.
-
Cause: User does not have privileges to allocate an extent in the specified tablespace.
-
Action: Grant the user the appropriate system privileges or grant the user space resource on the tablespace.
-
Cause: The role you tried to revoke was not granted to the user.
-
Action: Do not try to revoke a privilege which is not granted.
-
Cause: A system privilege you tried to revoke was not granted to the user.
-
Action: Make sure the privileges you are trying to revoke are granted.
-
Cause: The syntax for assigning quotas on tablespaces has changed. The ALTER USER command is now used to perform the functionality.
-
Action: Use the ALTER USER command instead.
-
Cause: Default roles cannot be specified for create user.
-
Action: Grant and alter the user's default roles after creating the user.
-
Cause: The user being altered does not have the specified role granted directly to the user. Note, sub-roles cannot be used in the DEFAULT ROLE clause.
-
Action: Grant the role to the user.
-
Cause: This command cannot be used when the initialization parameter OS_ROLES is TRUE.
-
Action: Grant the role to the user in the operating system.
-
Cause: The keyword MIN or MAX was expected as an argument.
-
Action: Enter the keyword MIN or MAX and retry the operation.
-
Cause: An item other than an integer was entered for the LAYER option.
-
Action: Enter an integer for the LAYER option and retry the operation.
-
Cause: An item other than an integer was entered for the OPCODE option. The
value
inALTER SYSTEM DUMP ... OPCODE
value
must be an integer. -
Action: Enter an integer for the OPCODE option and retry the operation.
For more information on the OPCODE option, see the Oracle9i SQL Reference.
-
Cause: An invalid option was entered for the
ALTER SYSTEM DUMP LOGFILE
option
command. -
Action: For a list of valid options for DUMP LOGFILE, see the Oracle9i SQL Reference.
-
Cause: An invalid option was entered for the
ALTER SYSTEM DUMP
statement. -
Action: Enter a valid option for
ALTER SYSTEM DUMP
. Examples of valid options areLOGFILE
andUNDO
. For more information on theDUMP
option, see the Oracle9i SQL Reference. -

-
Cause: An invalid block number was specified.
-
Action: Enter a valid block number and retry the operation. For more information on valid block numbers, see the Oracle9i SQL Reference.
-
Cause: A value was entered for the TIME option that could not be interpreted as a date.
-
Action: Enter a valid date. For more information on the TIME option, see the Oracle9i SQL Reference.
-
Cause: A period is missing between the file number and the block number.
-
Action: Enter a period between the file number and the block number, then retry the operation. For more information on file numbers and block numbers, see the Oracle9i SQL Reference.
-
Cause: An invalid CREATE CONTROLFILE option is present.
-

-
Cause: Keyword CHANGE found but change number not specified.
-
Action: Fix the command line and resubmit.
-
Cause: An invalid option to the
ALTER SYSTEM ARCHIVE
command was specified. -
Action: Check the syntax of the command and retry it.
-
Cause: An invalid change number was supplied.
-
Action: Resubmit the command with a valid change number.
-
Cause: A change number was required, but not supplied.
-
Action: Check the syntax of the command, supply a change number where needed, then retry the command.
-
Cause: Keyword THREAD found but thread number not specified.
-
Action: Fix the command line and resubmit.
-
Cause: Keyword SEQUENCE found but sequence number not specified.
-
Action: Fix the command line and resubmit.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to enable a role without giving the proper password.
-
Action: Use the IDENTIFIED BY clause in SET ROLE to specify the correct password.
-
Cause: An operating system error occurred while loading a users OS ROLES.
-
Action: Check the operating system error.
-
Cause: During this revoke some foreign key constraints will be removed. In order to perform this automatically, CASCADE CONSTRAINTS must be specified.
-
Action: Remove the constraints or specify CASCADE CONSTRAINTS.
-
Cause: AUDIT or NOAUDIT on a table specifies an auditing option that is not legal for tables.
-
Action: The following options may not be used for tables and should be removed: REFERENCES, EXECUTE.
-
Cause: AUDIT or NOAUDIT on a DEFAULT specifies an auditing option that is not legal for DEFAULT.
-
Action: The following options may not be used for DEFAULT and should be removed: REFERENCES.
-
Cause: AUDIT or NOAUDIT on a DEFAULT specifies an auditing option that is not legal for procedures, packages, or functions.
-
Action: The following options may not be used for procedures, packages, and functions and should be removed: all but EXECUTE.
-
Cause: Maximum users in the database license limit exceeded.
-
Action: Increase license limit.
-
Cause: An invalid OPTIMIZER_GOAL option is present.
-
Action: Check the syntax for OPTIMIZER_GOAL, specify a valid option and re-execute the statement.
-
Cause: A client's operating system username is too long for the operating system logon to succeed.
-
Action: Use a shorter operating system username.
-
Cause: Remote operating system login attempted when not allowed.
-
Action: Use a local client, or use the REMOTE_OS_AUTHENT system parameter to turn on remote operating system logon.
-
Cause: The operating system role does not exist, is not granted to you, or you did not provide the correct password.
-
Action: Re-attempt the SET ROLE with a valid operating system role and password, if necessary.
-
Cause: An attempt to open the specified password file failed because of one of the following errors:
The environment variables ORA_sid_PWFILE and ORA_PWFILE are not set.
-
Action: Check for the above causes and correct as necessary.
-
Cause: The specified password file name is invalid.
-
Action: Specify a correct password file name.
-
Cause: The password file could not be closed because of an operating system error or because an authentication action failed.
-
Action: Check for the above causes and correct as necessary.
-
Cause: The password file could not be written to because of an operating system error or because an authentication action failed.
-
Action: Check for the above causes and correct as necessary.
-
Cause: A grant failed because a user could not be added to the password file. This is because the value of the REMOTE_LOGIN_PASSWORDFILE initialization parameter is set to SHARED.
-
Action: To add a user to the password file, shut down the database, change the REMOTE_LOGIN_PASSWORDFILE initialization parameter to EXCLUSIVE, and restart the database.
-
Cause: An operating system error occurred when trying to read the password file.
-
Action: Fix the operating system error.
-
Cause: The grant failed when a user could not be added to the password file, because all available slots in it were used already.
-
Action: Either create a larger password file or free up slots in the password file by revoking the SYSOPER and SYSDBA privileges from some of the remote users. You can determine which remote users are valid and their privileges by issuing the following query in SQL*DBA:
SELECT * FROM V$REMOTE_USERS;
-
Cause: You cannot grant the SYSOPER or SYSDBA privilege to a user created with the IDENTIFIED EXTERNALLY clause.
-
Action: If you wish to grant the user the SYSOPER or SYSDBA privileges, drop and re-create the user without the IDENTIFIED EXTERNALLY clause.
-
Cause: You attempted to revoke one of the necessary privileges, SYSOPER or SYSDBA, from user SYS. These privileges cannot be revoked.
-
Action: Do not attempt this operation.
-
Cause: Another instance has started with the FORCE_PASSWORD_FILEMODE initialization parameter, which is incompatible with the startup mode of your instance.
-
Action: Shut down your instance and start up later when the password file changes are completed for the other instance.
-
Cause: The statement entered requires the missing keyword.
-
Action: Use the specified keyword.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to create an index while running with SYS authorization.
-
Action: Indexes cannot be created with SYS authorization. Either do not create the index or switch to USER authorization.
-
Cause: The auditing facility is unable to write to the AUDIT_TRAIL table. If this error occurs, SQL statements that are currently being audited may also fail. This error will occur if the SYSTEM tablespace runs out of disk space.
-
Action: Add space to the SYSTEM tablespace or delete rows from the AUDIT_TRAIL table. If these operations fail or do not eliminate the problem, shut down and restart Oracle with auditing disabled. This is done by setting the initialization parameter AUDIT_TRAIL to FALSE.
-
Cause: An invalid parameter was specified for the USERENV function.
-
Action: Specify one of the allowable parameters TERMINAL, SESSIONID, ENTRYID, or NLS_LANG.
-
Cause: A user is attempting to perform an operation without the proper permission, and this fact is being recorded in the AUDIT_TRAIL table. This message only appears in the AUDIT_TRAIL table's return code column.
-
Action: For auditing information only; no action required.
-
Cause: A negative length for the define variable was passed to a define function.
-
Action: An explicit, non-negative, length parameter must be passed.
-
Cause: A packed decimal datatype was passed to a bind or define function, and the format string parameter was either not present or invalid.
-
Action: A valid format string parameter must be passed for a packed decimal variable. Check the programming manual for the definition of a packed decimal format string.
-
Cause: Allocate or deallocate storage and rebuild index are not compatible.
-
Action: Choose one or the other.
-
Cause: A scale factor was specified for a bind or define of a non-numeric variable.
-
Action: Set the scale factor to zero, then retry the operation.
-
Cause: A value of zero was specified in a SIZE or RESIZE clause of a file specification.
-
Action: Use correct syntax, or, if allowed, omit the SIZE or RESIZE clause.
-
Cause: A quoted character string does not follow the keyword USING in the USING clause of a CREATE DATABASE LINK statement.
-
Action: Specify the host connect string, then retry the operation.
-
Cause: The database link name specified in a CREATE DATABASE LINK statement already exists.
-
Action: Either specify a new name or drop the existing link.
-
Cause: The keyword USING does not follow the CONNECT TO clause in a CREATE DATABASE LINK statement.
-
Action: Specify the USING clause after the CONNECT TO clause.
-
Cause: The keyword CONNECT does not follow the database link name in a CREATE DATABASE LINK statement.
-
Action: Specify the CONNECT clause after the database link name.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to SELECT... FOR UPDATE from a view whose defining SELECT statement uses at least one of the following constructs in its outer block: outer join, GROUP BY clause, aggregate functions, SELECT DISTINCT, CONNECT BY clause, or set operation, UNION, INTERSECT, or MINUS.
-
Action: Do not use SELECT... FOR UPDATE on this view.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to SELECT... FOR UPDATE from a table in a remote database.
-
Action: It is not currently possible to SELECT... FOR UPDATE from a table in a remote database. Instead, log in or connect directly to the remote database before entering a SELECT... FOR UPDATE on its tables.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to use a subquery in a START WITH clause. Such a subquery is not currently permitted if the table in the FROM clause of the tree query is in a remote database.
-
Action: It is necessary to connect directly to the remote database before using a subquery in the START WITH clause.
-
Cause: The specified value must be an integer.
-
Action: Specify an appropriate integer value, then retry the operation.
-
Cause: The user is currently connected to a PUBLIC database link with the same name as the database link name specified in a CREATE or DROP DATABASE LINK statement.
-
Action: Close the cursors that use the PUBLIC database link.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to connect or log in to a remote database using a connection description that could not be found.
-
Action: Specify an existing database link. Query the data dictionary to see all existing database links. See your operating system-specific Net8 documentation for valid connection descriptors.
-
Cause: The current session has exceeded the INIT.ORA OPEN_LINKS maximum.
-
Action: Increase the OPEN_LINKS limit, or free up some open links by committing or rolling back the transaction and canceling open cursors that reference remote databases.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to use a DDL operation on a remote database. For example, "CREATE TABLE tablename@remotedbname...".
-
Action: To alter the remote database structure, you must connect to the remote database with the appropriate privileges.
-
Cause: The local view is unoptimized and contains references to objects at the remote database and the statement must be executed at the remote database.
-
Action: Create a similar view on the remote database and modify the violating view in the SQL statement with the new view@remote.
-
Cause: The statement contains a tree query on a remote database, and the tree query's START WITH or CONNECT BY predicate contains a term that cannot be evaluated at the remote database. Such terms include calls to user functions, calls to USERENV, and references to ROWID.
-
Action: Remove the disallowed term, directly connect, or log on to the remote database.
-
Cause: Database link to be dropped is not found in dictionary.
-
Action: Correct the database link name.
-
Cause: A SQL statement referenced tables from multiple databases, and one or more of the remote databases are not Oracle Servers.
-
Action: Remote updates can be performed only if all databases in the SQL statement are Oracle Servers. Update the earlier version databases in a separate statement.
-
Cause: A keyword is missing.
-
Action: Supply the missing keyword.
-
Cause: A bind variable with length greater than 4000 bytes is being used to update a column, and the update statement updates more than one row.
-
Action: You may only update a single row with such a bind variable.
-
Cause: The server does not support UPIALL, so the fetch of an exact number of rows cannot be emulated on the user side.
-
Action: Connect to a valid server or do not use an exact fetch.
-
Cause: A keyword is missing.
-
Action: Supply the missing keyword.
-
Cause: An attempt is being made to perform an operation other than a retrieval from a fixed table/view.
-
Action: You may only select rows from fixed tables/views.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to access rowid from a fixed table or from an external-organized table.
-
Action: Do not access ROWID from a fixed table or from an external-organized table.
-
Cause: User attempted to perform a DML statement on a clustered table for which no cluster index has yet been created.
-
Action: Create the cluster index.
-
Cause: A cluster index already exists for the cluster.
-
Action: No action required.
-
Cause: Speed bind not allowed with supplied bind variables. Trapped internally by the system.
-
Action: No action required.
-
Cause: User requested that the UPI bundled execution call perform an illegal combination of operations.
-
Action: Use a legal combination of operations and retry.
-
Cause: UPI-bundled execution call tried to perform automatic cursor open and close on a describe operation. There were too many SELECT list items or bind variables to do this.
-
Action: Open and close cursor explicitly.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to perform a speed-execution call on a SQL statement containing host variables without first performing a speed-bind call.
-
Action: Perform a speed-bind call before performing a speed-execution call.
-
Cause: A user attempted to define a select list variable of type "array". Arrays may serve only as host bind variables.
-
Action: Correct the offending code.
-
Cause: User attempted to bind an array host variable by value. Arrays may be bound only by reference.
-
Action: Correct the offending code.
-
Cause: A distributed update of more than one database was attempted, but the named database does not support the prepare phase of the two-phase commit, as determined by its logon transaction traits. The transaction was rolled back.
-
Action: Do not attempt to update the named database, unless it is the only database updated in the transaction. Distributed updates of more than one database in a single transaction can be performed only if all databases support the two-phase commit mechanism.
-
Cause: An update occurred at a coordinated database without the coordinator beginning a distributed transaction. This may happen if a stored procedure commits and then performs updates, and the stored procedure is invoked remotely. It could also happen if an external transaction monitor violates the XA protocol.
-
Action: If the cause is the former, check that any commit is not followed by an update.
-
Cause: The distributed transaction table is full because too many distributed transactions are active.
-
Action: Increase the DISTRIBUTED_TRANSACTIONS parameter in the initialization parameter file, shut down and restart Oracle, or run fewer transactions. If it is certain there are not too many concurrent distributed transactions, this may be an internal error. In this case, contact Oracle Support Services. Shutting down and restarting the instance could be a workaround.
-
Cause: A transaction was in progress and one of the following commands was issued:
-
Action: COMMIT or ROLLBACK the current transaction and retry the command.
-
Cause: A remote transaction manager tried to log in while a distributed transaction is in progress. A protocol error occurred in the remote transaction manager.
-
Action: End the current transaction.
-
Cause: There are too many sessions at this site to accommodate this transaction.
-
Action: Use an existing database link so that another session need not be created at the remote site.
-
Cause: This is an internal error not normally encountered. A server session received a BEGIN_TRAN remote procedure call before finishing with a previous distributed transaction.
-
Action: Contact Oracle Support Services.
-
Cause: This can happen only when attempting to update an Oracle Version 6 and an Oracle7 database in the same transaction, because either
-
Action: Complete the current transaction before attempting the action that caused the error.
-
Cause: The client program did not issue a distributed transaction login. This is an internal error.
-
Action: Contact Oracle Support Services.
-
Cause: Exceeded INIT.ORA DISTRIBUTED_LOCK_TIMEOUT seconds waiting for lock.
-
Action: Treat as a deadlock.
-
Cause: Network or remote failure during a two-phase commit.
-
Action: Notify operations; remote databases will automatically re-sync when the failure is repaired.
-
Cause: A session at the same site with same global transaction ID failed.
-
Action: No action necessary; the transaction is automatically recovered.
-
Cause: There was some error in a remote transaction at the named database link.
-
Action: More descriptive messages will follow. Correct the problem specified in the following messages and retry the operation.
-
Cause: There was a network failure or a remote failure during the two-phase commit.
-
Action: Notify the database administrator. The remote databases will resynchronize automatically when the failure is repaired.
-
Cause: There was a network failure or a remote failure in the two-phase commit.
-
Action: Notify the database administrator. The remote databases will resynchronize automatically when the failure is repaired. Monitor the DBA_2PC_PENDING table for the outcome and resubmit the transaction, if necessary.
-
Cause: A failure during a distributed update operation may not have rolled back all effects of the operation. Since some sites may be inconsistent with others, the transaction must roll back to a savepoint or roll back entirely.
-
Action: Roll back to a savepoint or roll back the entire transaction and resubmit the rolled-back statements.
-
Cause: There was a two-phase commit protocol error.
-
Action: The transaction may automatically recover. Monitor the DBA_2PC_PENDING table to determine the resolution. Enter the transaction again, if necessary. Contact Oracle Support Services if necessary.
-
Cause: An internal error in the two-phase recovery protocol occurred.
-
Action: Contact Oracle Support Services.
-
Cause: No transaction with LOCAL_TRAN_ID or GLOBAL_TRAN_ID found in the PENDING_TRANS$ table in prepared state.
-
Action: Check the PENDING_TRANS$ table.
-
Cause: This is a special comment used to test the two-phase commit.
-
Action: Do not use this special comment (string a number 1-10).
-
Cause: An attempt was made to join tables in different remote databases in a SELECT... FOR UPDATE statement.
-
Action: Joined tables in a SELECT statement with the FOR UPDATE clause must reside at the same database. Simplify the SELECT... FOR UPDATE statement so that it joins only tables in the same database.
-
Cause: Tables in a LOCK TABLE statement must reside at the same database.
-
Action: Issue multiple LOCK TABLE commands.
-
Cause: A database link at a coordinator no longer points to the expected database. Link may have been redefined, or a different database mounted.
-
Action: Restore the link definition or the remote database.
-
Cause: An Oracle error was received from a remote database link.
-
Action: Refer to the preceding error message(s).
-
Cause: One of the following unsupported operations was attempted:
- Array execute of a remote update with a subquery that references a database link, or
- An update of a long column with bind variable and an update of a second column with a subquery that both references a database link and a bind variable, or
- A commit is issued in a coordinated session from an RPC with OUT parameters.
-
Action: Simplify the remote update statement.
-
Cause: The option specified for
ALTER SYSTEM
is not supported. -
Action: Refer to the Oracle9i SQL Reference for information about options supported.
-
Cause: A character string literal was expected, but not found, following
ALTER SYSTEM SET DISPATCHERS
. -
Action: Place the string literal containing the dispatcher's specification after
ALTER SYSTEM SET DISPATCHERS
. -
Cause: A failure (typically a trigger or stored procedure with multiple remote updates) occurred such that the all-or-nothing execution of a previous Oracle call cannot be guaranteed.
-
Action: Roll back to a previous savepoint or roll back the transaction and resubmit.
-
Cause: A severe error (disconnect, fatal Oracle error) was received from the indicated database link. See following error text.
-
Action: Contact the remote system administrator.
-
Cause: A remote mapping of the statement is required but cannot be achieved because GLOBAL_NAMES should be set to TRUE for it to be achieved.
-
Action: Issue ALTER SESSION SET GLOBAL_NAMES = TRUE if possible.
-
Cause: The remote database does not support the named capability in the context in which it is used.
-
Action: Simplify the SQL statement.
-
Cause: Could not load a remote-specified capability table.
-
Action: Contact Oracle Support Services for the remote SQL*Connect product.
-
Cause: This should never happen between different PRODUCTION releases of ORACLE, but may happen between alpha and beta releases, for example.
-
Action: Upgrade the older release.
-
Cause: Sequence numbers may not be used in INSERTS, UPDATES, or DELETES on remote tables.
-
Action: Perform the operation without specifying a sequence number.
-
Cause: A commit or rollback was attempted from session other than the parent of a distributed transaction.
-
Action: Only commit or roll back from the parent session.
-
Cause: A commit force or rollback force was issued from a session in another instance.
-
Action: Check if another Oracle instance is performing recovery of pending transactions. Query DBA_2PC_PENDING to determine the new state of the transaction.
-
Cause: All referenced sequences must be located on the same node as the updated table or the long column.
-
Action: Correct the problem and then reissue the statement.
-
Cause: All tables returning values of long columns in a SELECT statement must be located at the same node.
-
Action: Correct the problem, then reissue the statement.
-
Cause: An invalid value was used.
-
Action: Use a correct value.
-
Cause: A call to UPI2BG was issued in a session for a transaction that has begun to commit in a different branch; that is, a call to UPI2EN was issued for a branch of the same transaction in another session. This can only happen when using an external transaction manager.
-
Action: Contact Oracle Support Services.
-
Cause: A transaction is active or a cursor is open on the database link given in the ALTER SESSION CLOSE DATABASE LINK link command.
-
Action: Commit or roll back, and close all cursors
-
Cause: An attempt was made to use a database link that is not currently open.
-
Action: Resolve network problems or contact the remote database administrator to determine if the remote database's problem has been fixed. Contact the local database administrator to determine if network problems have been resolved. Wait until the link is open and try the operation again.
-
Cause: An attempt was made to create a database link with the same name as the current database.
-
Action: This database link needs a trailing qualifier to make the name unique. These qualifiers are operating system-specific. See your operating system-specific Oracle documentation for more information about creating database links.
-
Cause: The database name supplied contains an invalid character. For example, there can be no periods, semicolons, single quotes, double quotes, blanks, or non-printable characters in the database name. See the Oracle9i Database Administrator's Guide for naming rules.
-
Action: Specify a valid database name.
-
Cause: The complete database name was not provided.
-
Action: Specify the full database name.
-
Cause: The database link attempted to connect to a database with a different name. The name of the database link must be the same name as the name of the database.
-
Action: Create a database link with the same name as the database to which it connects.
-
Cause: The name of the database or database link is too long. Database and database link names can be no longer than 128 characters.
-
Action: Specify the correct database or database link name or specify a name with fewer characters.
-
Cause: A database link is being used in the cluster database environment that loops back to the same instance. One session is trying to convert a lock that was obtained by the other session.
-
Action: Get the more restrictive lock first. For example, if session 1 gets a share lock and session 2 gets an exclusive lock on the same object, get the exclusive lock first. Or use the same session to access the object.
-
Cause: The distributed database option is not installed at this site, so the requested operation is not possible.
-
Action: Contact Oracle Support Services about obtaining the distributed database option.
-
Cause: COMMIT was issued in a session that is not the two-phase commit global coordinator.
-
Action: Issue commit at the global coordinator only.
-
Cause: This is an internal error.
-
Action: Contact Oracle Support Services.
-
Cause: The distributed transaction is assigned to the system rollback segment and is trying to get into the prepared state, but the required number of non-PREPARED slots are not available, so the transaction is rolled back.
If the transaction aborted at a remote site, only ORA-02091 will be seen. If the transaction aborted at the host site, then both ORA-02091 and ORA-02092 will be seen.
-
Action: Complete the current transaction and then do the operation required.
-
Cause: The transaction is assigned to the system rollback segment and is trying to get into the PREPARED state, but the required number of non-PREPARED slots are not available, hence the transaction is rolled back.
-
Action: Add a rollback segment and retry the transaction.
-
Cause: Value of the parameter specified is greater than allowed on this port.
-
Action: Use default or reduce it to less than the maximum.
-
Cause: The replication option was not installed at this site. Updatable materialized views, deferred RPCs, and other replication features were, therefore, unavailable.
-
Action: Install the replication option. The replication option is not part of the Oracle Server product and must be purchased separately. Contact an Oracle Sales representative if the replication option needs to be purchased.
-
Cause: Specified initialization parameter is not modifiable with this option.
-
Action: Check the Oracle9i Database Administrator's Guide for information about under what scope the parameter may be modified.
For more information about modifying an initialization parameter, see the Oracle9i Database Reference.
-
Cause: Though the initialization parameter is modifiable, it cannot be modified using the specified command.
-
Action: Check the Oracle9i Database Administrator's Guide for information about under what scope the parameter may be modified
-
Cause: Though the initialization parameter is modifiable, the modified value is not acceptable to the parameter.
-
Action: Check the Oracle9i Database Administrator's Guide for range of acceptable values for this parameter.
-
Cause: An incorrect index-table (:I) syntax was encountered.
-
Action: This syntax is for Oracle internal use only.
