The "/" is correct. As a follow up, what tool you are using to send your scripts to the database?
SQL*Plus uses the standalone "/" line as the indicator that the sequence of strings is complete and therefore can be sent to the database for compilation and execution. If you don't provide the "/" you will get errors that on closer read will indicate that some compilation has failed because the sequence you send will actually be composed of multiple SQL, SQL*Plus, and PLSQL blocks.
The execute keyword, BTW, as in:
exec dbms_output.enable;
is SQLPlus syntactic sugar that gets converted by SQLPlus into:
begin dbms_output.enable; end;

Try exec in front of your dbms..
exec dbms_output.enable;

Remove the first line (DBMS_OUTPUT.ENABLE;) entirely. set serveroutput on (before you're about to execute the procedure) will enable it.
Or, encapsulate it into the procedure or the anonymous PL/SQL block itself, e.g.
SQL> begin
2 dbms_output.enable;
3 end;
4 /
PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.
SQL>

You missed the trailing "/" to execute the "CREATE OR REPLACE" statement. The ";" As explained here, the semi-colon ends your pl/sql statement but you need the slash to execute it.
The error "Encountered the symbol "SET" Errors: check compiler log " refers to the "SET" string from the "set serveroutput on" statement.
...
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE(grade_point_total/course_count);
end;
/ <<< Add this
set serveroutput on;
begin
grade_point212;
end;

how to select into an array in pl/sql?

I'm trying to add some ids into an array:
CREATE OR REPLACE TYPE array_of_numbers AS VARRAY(10)OF NUMBER(10);
declare
student_ids array_of_numbers;
begin
select nrleg BULK COLLECT into student_ids from student where nrleg = 123458;
FOR i IN 1..student_ids.COUNT LOOP
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE(student_ids(i));
END LOOP;
end;
but I get the following errors:
--------- -------------------------------------------------------------
3/1 PLS-00103: Encountered the symbol "DECLARE"
10/4 PLS-00103: Encountered the symbol "end-of-file" when expecting one of the following: ( begin case declare end exception exit for goto if loop mod null pragma raise return select update while with <an identifier> <a double-quoted delimited-identifier> <a bind variable> << continue close current delete fetch lock insert open rollback savepoint set sql execute commit forall merge pipe purge json_exists json_value json_query json_object json_array
Errors: check compiler log
Could someone explain what I did wrong?
Some DDL needs to be terminated with a /; a type can have a PL/SQL body so this is one of them. To run that all at once as a script do:
CREATE OR REPLACE TYPE array_of_numbers AS VARRAY(10)OF NUMBER(10);
/
declare
student_ids array_of_numbers;
begin
select nrleg BULK COLLECT into student_ids from student where nrleg = 123458;
FOR i IN 1..student_ids.COUNT LOOP
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE(student_ids(i));
END LOOP;
end;
/
You don't need the semicolon on the end of the CREATE here, but it doesn't hurt; but for some other commands (including other DDL like create table) having both would cause it to try to execute the statement twice, which could cause an error.
SQL Developer won't complain about the lack of a / after the last PL/SQL block in a script, but other tools will, so it's better to always include that one too.
db<>fiddle
Incidentally, another way to see the contents of the array in SQL Developer is with a ref cursor:
var rc refcursor
declare
student_ids array_of_numbers;
begin
select nrleg BULK COLLECT into student_ids from student where nrleg = 123458;
open :rc for select * from table(student_ids);
end;
/
print rc
... but then you might as well just select directly from the table, without any PL/SQL.

PL PQL doesn't get executed properly

I have to insert almost 40 000 rows to a table and every time I try to execute it in SQL developer, I couldn't find any rows in the table it seems like it didn't executed the begin block at all, because i put a msg to be printed in the output and there is nothing after the execution, I have tried to execute the block with only a few insertion statements and it works,
why SQL developer can't handle a lot of insertion statement in PLSQL block?
bellow is my script:
set serveroutput on
set linesize 200
set timing on
whenever sqlerror exit failure rollback;
whenever oserror exit failure rollback;
ALTER SESSION SET current_schema = carp;
ALTER SESSION SET nls_length_semantics = char;
DECLARE
v_rows_count VARCHAR2(10 CHAR);
PROCEDURE trace (p_message IN VARCHAR2)
IS
BEGIN
DBMS_OUTPUT.put_line (TO_CHAR (SYSDATE, 'YYYYMMDD HH24:MI:SS') || ' - INFO - ' || p_message);
END trace;
BEGIN
dbms_output.ENABLE(1000000);
TRACE ('=========== Exécution du script: START ===========');
Insert into my_table (PK_SEQ,CODE) values (1260389,'00AI');
Insert into my_table (PK_SEQ,CODE) values (1321244,'00AI');
select COUNT(*) into v_rows_count FROM carp.param_site_groupe_site;
dbms_output.put_line('Nombre de lignes insérées: ' || v_rows_count);
TRACE (q'[=========== Exécution du script: FIN ===========]');
COMMIT;
END;
/
exit;
please note that there is more than 40 000 insert statements inside the begin block not two as shown above
I reduce the script size just for readebility porpuse

How to create a Trigger in oracle?

I have oracle database 11gR2 and i want to create some triggers automatically with a block .
when i want to run query in below , i have an error .

A trigger is a standalone separate piece of code that is usually considered DDL, the language that defines metadata for objects.
You cannot have a trigger declaration embedded inside a PL/SQL block. IF you need to CREATE some PL/SQL code on the fly - not a great idea - consider the DMBS_DDL.CREATE_WRAPPED procedure. You seem to have EXECUTE IMMEDIATE in mind as well. If so, have a read on this: (http://docs.oracle.com/cd/B19306_01/appdev.102/b14258/d_ddl.htm)
You should define your trigger BEFORE running your PL/SQL in other words. Make two scripts.

Why no output when PLSQL Anonymous block completes? [duplicate]

This question already has answers here:
Printing the value of a variable in SQL Developer
(9 answers)
Closed 4 years ago.
I'm just getting into PL/SQL, and I tried to run the following code, and I am getting anonymous block completed, but I think I should be getting Testing output. Does any know what I am doing wrong?
DECLARE
message varchar2(20) := 'Testing output';
BEGIN
dbms_output.put_line(message);
END;
/
Viewing the DBMS_OUTPUT depends on the program.
SQL*Plus and Oracle SQL Developer
Run SET SERVEROUTPUT ON; first. This is all that's necessary in SQL*Plus or recent versions of Oracle SQL Developer.
SET SERVEROUTPUT ON;
begin
dbms_output.put_line('Testing output');
end;
/
PL/SQL Developer
Output is automatically detected and displayed in the "Output" tab.
Yes, in Oracle SQL Developer put the statement:
SET SERVEROUTPUT ON;
just before your DECLARE keyword and this should work.
I couldn't find View -> DBMS Output and I'm using version 1.5.5.
Yes. There is way to see output in SQL Developer.
Click ->View->Dbms Output and then click + symbol on Dbms output window. now you can run the procedure and can see output.
`The following statement will give the possible solution try this out
SET SERVEROUTPUT ON;
Then Run this code will get the following output
declare
a integer :=10;
b integer :=20;
c integer;
f real;
begin
c := a+b;
dbms_output.put_line('value of c: ' || c);
f := 70.0/3.0;
dbms_output.put_line('value of f: ' || f);
end;
/
The code will give the following output
value of c: 30
value of f: 23.3333333333333333333333333333333333333
PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.
Yes, this is correct. You need to use before this block:
SET SERVEROUTPUT ON
Then, message get displayed on window.
Else we can check in SQL Developer select "View" -> "DBMS Output".
and in PLSQL developer under the OutPut tab we can check message.
If you are getting "anonymous block completed" while executing the procedure by typing "EXECUTE ;" then run the below command & again execute the procedure.
command is
SET SERVEROUTPUT ON;
**SET SERVEROUTPUT ON;**
DECLARE
a INTEGER :=10;
b INTEGER :=20;
c float ;
d real ;
BEGIN
c :=a+b;
dbms_output.put_line('the value of C is :'|| c);
d := 70.0/3.3;
dbms_output.put_line('the value of d is:'|| d);
END;
This will give you the output
the value of C is: 30
the value of d is: 21.21212121212121212121212121212121212121
