Very new to SQL, but I thought that I had at least mastered how to make tables. I am trying to create the following table and get the error 'ORA-00903: invalid table name'. I'm not sure what is wrong.
Create table order (
order_id int,
item_type varchar(50),
item_name varchar(50),
item_price decimal(10,2),
primary key(order_id)
);
I am testing this on Oralce Live SQL and it is ok as well as on my Oracle 12c Database EE, all you need to add are "". But even so, I would not recommend it to use reserved words for naming tables.
Create table "order" (
order_id int,
item_type varchar(50),
item_name varchar(50),
item_price decimal(10,2),
primary key(order_id)
);
insert into "order" values (1, 'Item', 'Name', '20.2');
select * from "order";

I keep getting the error:
Cannot add or update a child row: a foreign key constraint fails
(myWork.Bookingss, CONSTRAINT Bookingss_ibfk_1 FOREIGN KEY
(CustomersID) REFERENCES Customers (CustomersID))
I have spent a while researching as this is apart of a school assignment and can not seem to resolve the problem.
Here is my SQL code:
USE myWork ;
DROP TABLE IF EXISTS Bookingss ;
DROP TABLE IF EXISTS Customers ;
CREATE TABLE myWork.Customers
(
CustomersID INT NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
Surname CHAR(30) NOT NULL ,
FirstName CHAR(30) NOT NULL ,
Title CHAR(10),
DOB DATE,
HouseNumber INT,
StreetName CHAR(30),
Town CHAR(30),
PostCode CHAR(9),
Telephone INT,
PRIMARY KEY (CustomersID)
) ;
CREATE TABLE myWork.Bookingss
(
BookingsID INT NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
CustomersID INT NOT NULL,
AdultsBooked INT NOT NULL,
ChildrenBooked INT NOT NULL,
Check_In DATE,
Check_Out DATE,
PRIMARY KEY (BookingsID),
FOREIGN KEY (CustomersID)
REFERENCES myWork.Customers (CustomersID)
) ;
SHOW TABLES ;
INSERT INTO myWork.Bookingss ( CustomersID, AdultsBooked , ChildrenBooked , Check_In , Check_Out )
VALUES ("1", "2", "3", "2022-04-10", "2022-04-13" ) ;
INSERT INTO myWork.Customers ( Surname , FirstName , Title , DOB )
VALUES ( "smith" , "ryan" , "Mr" , "1998-02-16" ) ;
SELECT * FROM Customers , Bookingss;
You got the order wrong and some challenges to overcome. You are trying to insert a booking first, and this with an id for a customer that does not yet exist in the customer table at that moment.
You have to insert the customer first, then use the customer's id to insert the booking for the customer (using his id).
And there is the first challenge. The customer id is an auto increment field. You would not know the id when you insert a customer in the table.
You would have to fetch the customer and use the id of that customer to insert a booking for the customer. How do you fetch the customer? Selecting the customer with a specific name surname and first name is not a correct choice, any other field (or composition of fields) that I see in the table definition is not a good choice neither.
You'd need to think further about a good solution. There are several options I could tell you about. But the appropriate solution depends on your assignment/context.
By the way, the last select clause may not deliver the result you expect. You are producing a cartesian product (every row of the first table with every row of the second table). What you probably want is a JOIN where you link the first table with the second table accordingly (e.g. using the primary key and the foreign key).
I am currently working on a SQL assignment, but first I need to create tables which it is not letting me do. I have 3 tables which are Customer, PurchasedDeal, and Usage. I manage to create the first 2 tables successfully, but I am having a little difficulty with creating the Usage table. For some reason it is giving me this error.
Error at line 2:
ORA-00904: : Invalid Identifier
If anyone could help me understand why it is giving me this error I would really appreciate it. Thanks. It is saying it is having problems with uID INT and I am using putty to create these tables.
CREATE TABLE Customer(
CustomerID INT NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY,
CustomerName VARCHAR(100),
Phone VARCHAR(15)
);
CREATE TABLE PurchasedDeal(
DID INT NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY,
dealName VARCHAR(100),
cost FLOAT,
totalValue FLOAT,
balance FLOAT,
CustomerID INT,
FOREIGN KEY(CustomerID) REFERENCES Customer(CustomerID)
);
CREATE TABLE Usage(
uID INT,
uDate DATE,
cost FLOAT,
DealID INT,
PRIMARY KEY(DealID, uID),
FOREIGN KEY(DealID) REFERENCES PurchasedDeal(DID)
);
The term ‘uid’ is reserved in Oracle. This term cannot be used as a column name in the Oracle environment.
Query: SELECT uid FROM t1
Result: will execute correctly
Query: SELECT U.”uid” FROM x.t1 U
Result: will through error:
ORA-00904: “U”.”uid”: invalid identifier 00904. 00000 – “%s: invalid identifier”
Query: SELECT U.”UID” FROM x.t1 U
Result: will execute correctly as uid is replaced with UID (in capital)
Rectification in below table and we are good to go.
CREATE TABLE Usage(
uID1 INT,
uDate DATE,
cost FLOAT,
DealID INT,
PRIMARY KEY(DealID, uID1),
FOREIGN KEY(DealID) REFERENCES PurchasedDeal_test(DID)
);
I am trying to create a basic table using subtypes and insert some data into this in Oracle Express 11g.
My table is successfully created but i am having issues with inserting data.
The result of my insert statement always throws back an error 'SQL Error: ORA-00904: "BRANCH_PHONE": invalid identifier'.
The column which shows up in the error message is always the column which is at the end of the insert statement, despite the column existing in the table. I have tried the following code:
create type addressType as object(
street varchar2(20),
city varchar2(20),
postCode varchar2(8))
not final
/
create type branchType as object(
branchID int,
branch_address addressType,
branch_phone int(11))
not final
/
create table Branch of branchType(
constraint branch_pk primary key(branchID));
/
insert into Branch values (
branchID('2364'),
addressType('12 Rooster','Atlantis','A13 4UG'),
branch_phone('01316521311'));
I would really appreciate any ideas.
I made some changes, including changing the branch_phone to varchar2. A Phone number, while is "numbers" is not a data type of number. it is a string of characters. Also you were passing branchID as a string, but you are declaring it as a number, so changed that also. BranchID and branch_phone are primitive data types, so no constructor needed.
create type addressType as object(
street varchar2(20),
city varchar2(20),
postCode varchar2(8))
not final
/
create type branchType as object(
branchID int,
branch_address addressType,
branch_phone varchar2(11))
not final
/
create table Branch of branchType(
constraint branch_pk primary key(branchID));
/
insert into Branch values (
branchtype(2364,
addressType('12 Rooster','Atlantis','A13 4UG'),
'01316521311') )
I am trying to create a table using a disjoint subtype relationship.
For example, if the Supertype is furniture, and I have 3 Subtypes of furniture: chair, couch, and table.
Then:
CREATE TABLE Furniture
(order_num NUMBER(15), desc VARCHAR2(20), type VARCHAR2(10));
How do I make an option to pick type of chair, couch or table?
You can use REFERENCES in the CREATE TABLE.
CREATE TABLE Furniture_SubTypes
(
sub_type VARCHAR(10) PRIMARY KEY
);
INSERT INTO Furniture_SubTypes VALUES ('Chair');
INSERT INTO Furniture_SubTypes VALUES ('Couch');
INSERT INTO Furniture_SubTypes VALUES ('Table');
CREATE TABLE Furniture
(
order_num NUMBER,
description VARCHAR(20),
sub_type REFERENCES Furniture_SubTypes(sub_type)
);
Use a check constraint:
CREATE TABLE Furniture (
order_num NUMBER(15),
description VARCHAR2(20),
type VARCHAR2(10),
check (type in ('chair', 'couch', 'table'))
);
Note that desc is a poor choice for a column name, because it is a keyword in SQL (used for order by).
I'm currently making a website that is used to advertise car sharing for festivals. I need to list all trips which are currently assigned to a user but seeing as the database relationship would be many to many I have had to make a client_trip table.
My question:
How would I select trips from the trip table based on the information in my client_trip table?
I'm currently using PostgreSQL and Java servlets. Thanks very much for any help. :)
CREATE TABLE users
(
user_id SERIAL,
user_username VARCHAR (20),
user_firstname VARCHAR(20),
user_surname VARCHAR(20),
user_password VARCHAR(50),
user_email VARCHAR(100),
user_role VARCHAR(20),
PRIMARY KEY(user_id)
);
CREATE TABLE trips
(
trip_id SERIAL,
trip_name VARCHAR (100),
trip_user_username VARCHAR (50),
trip_festival_id SERIAL REFERENCES festivals(festival_id),
trip_festival_name VARCHAR(100),
trip_depart_date DATE,
trip_return_date DATE,
trip_spaces INT,
trip_cost Decimal (19,2),
trip_desc VARCHAR,
PRIMARY KEY(trip_id)
);
how would I select trips from the trip table based on the information in my client_trip
With a given user_id:
SELECT t.*
FROM trips t
JOIN client_trip ct USING (trip_id)
WHERE ct.user_id = ??
