I am working on an existing Cold Fusion report and am getting an error when trying to create a calculated field.
When I use the following expression in the field:
IIF(calc.WI_TOT_AGT_CNT_MTD NEQ 0 AND CALC.WI_TOT_AGT_CNT_MTD NEQ '',
'(CALC.WI_TOT_SRVY_CNT_MTD / CALC.WI_TOT_AGT_CNT_MTD)',
DE('-'))
it runs fine. The problem is when I update this expression to use a different calculated expression:
IIF(calc.FL_AGT_CNT_TOTAL NEQ 0 AND CALC.WI_TOT_AGT_CNT_MTD NEQ '',
'(CALC.WI_TOT_SRVY_CNT_MTD / CALC.WI_TOT_AGT_CNT_MTD)',
DE('-'))
I get an error. I updated just one piece at a time to see if I can pinpoint what is causing the error. I can pass "Calc.FL_AGT_CNT_TOTAL" into the report and verify that it returns 0 as the value. I have verified that calc.FL_AGT_CNT_TOTAL is the same data type as calc.WI_TOT_SRVY_CNT_MTD.
The error I am getting is just a generic "An error has occured, please contact administrator", and I can't figure out where in this cold fusion application the error is being redirected from. Any ideas as to what could be causing this calculation to fail? Thanks!
The Calculated Field was a float data type but it was trying to pass the '-', which is a string.

While using the code able I'm getting an error message as below and also I'm getting the output table.
input(put(serv_to_DT_KEY,8.),yymmdd8.)
between datepart(D.throughdate)
and datepart(intnx('day',d.throughdate,31))
Error: INPUT function reported 'ERROR: Invalid date value' while processing WHERE clause.
ERROR: Limit set by ERRORS= option reached. Further errors for this INPUT function will not be printed.
Could you please help
It's not a true error, exactly; it's a data error, which SAS will let by. What it's saying is the value in serv_to_DT_KEY is not a valid yymmdd8 for some records. (The rest of the message, about "limit set by ...", is just SAS saying it's only going to tell you about 20 or so individual data errors instead of showing you every single one, so your log isn't hopeless.)
To fix this you have several options:
If there is a data issue [ie, all rows should have a valid date], then fix that.
If it's okay that some rows don't have a valid date (for example, they might have a missing), you can use the ?? modifier in the informat in input to tell it to ignore these.
Like this:
input(put(serv_to_DT_KEY,8.),?yymmdd8.)
between datepart(D.throughdate)
and datepart(intnx('day',d.throughdate,31))
I am trying to perform an operation in SQL server using LOG() and a few fields that are within my table. When I try and run the query, I get the error
'An invalid floating point operation occurred.'
I tried the solution provided in An invalid floating point operation occurred but I was not able to get it to solve. This was the original code that I used
SELECT
MIN(ROUND((ROUND(Log(amt1 / ABS(rate * amt2 - amt1)),5) / (round(LOG(1 + rate),10))),0))
FROM table
WHERE amt2 - amt1 > 0
I expected the output to show a value. I can run this for one specific field, but as I span this out to the whole data set the error occurs.
This is my first try at using R to collect data from pubchem. However i am getting the following error every time for every cid that i have used.
library("rpubchem")
get.cid(46926545)
Error in do.call(cbind, unlist(Filter(function(x) !is.null(x), cvals), :

Can anyone point out what am i doing wrong. The link for the cid is "https://pubchem.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/compound/46926545#section=Top"
I have a very simple Pentaho Kettle transformation that causes a strange error. It consists of reading a field X from a CSV, add a field Y, set Y=X and finally write it back to another CSV.
Here you can see the steps and the configuration for them:
You can also download the ktr file from here. The input data is just this:
1
2
3
When I run this transformation, I get this error message:
ERROR (version 5.4.0.1-130, build 1 from 2015-06-14_12-34-55 by buildguy) : Unexpected error

All of the above lines start with 2015/09/23 12:51:18 - Text file output.0 -, but I edited it out for brevity. I think the relevant, and confusing, part of the error message is this:
Y Number : There was a data type error: the data type of [B object [[B©b4136a] does not correspond to value meta [Number]
Some further notes:
If I bypass the set field value step by using the lower hop instead, the transformation finish without errors. This leads me to believe that it is the set field value step that causes the problem.
If I replace the CSV file input with a data frame with the same data (1,2,3) everything works just fine.
If I replace the file output step with a dummy the transformation finish without errors. However, if I preview the dummy, it causes a similar error and the field Y has the value <null> on all three rows.
Before I created this MCVE I got the error on all sorts of seemingly random steps, even when there was no file output present. So I do not think this is related to the file output.
If I change the format from Number to Integer, nothing changes. But if I change it to string the transformations finish without errors, and I get this output:
X;Y
1;[B#49e96951
2;[B#7b016abf
3;[B#1a0760b0
Is this a bug? Am I doing something wrong? How can I make this work?
It's because of lazy conversion. Turn it off. This is behaving exactly as designed - although admittedly the error and user experience could be improved.
Lazy conversion must not be used when you need to access the field value in your transformation. That's exactly what it does. The default should probably be off rather than on.
If your field is going directly to a database, then use it and it will be faster.
You can even have "partially lazy" streams, where you use lazy conversion for speed, but then use select values step, to "un-lazify" the fields you want to access, whilst the remainder remain lazy.
Cunning huh?
Good day!
I get this error:
SQL STATE 37000 [Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver] Syntax Error
or Access Violation, when trying to run an embedded SQL statement on
Powerscript.
I am using MsSQL Server 2008 and PowerBuilder 10.5, the OS is Windows 7. I was able to determine one of the queries that is causing the problem:
SELECT top 1 CONVERT(DATETIME,:ls_datetime)
into :ldtme_datetime
from employee_information
USING SQLCA;
if SQLCA.SQLCODE = -1 then
Messagebox('SQL ERROR',SQLCA.SQLERRTEXT)
return -1
end if
I was able to come up with a solution to this by just using the datetime() function of PowerBuilder. But there are other parts of the program that is causing this and I am having a hard time in identifying which part of the program causes this. I find this very weird because I am running the same scripts here in my dev-pc with no problems at all, but when trying to run the program on my client's workstation I am getting this error. I haven't found any differences in the workstation and my dev-pc. I also tried following the instructions here, but the problem still occurs.
UPDATE: I was able to identify the other script that is causing the problem:
/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
// f_datediff
// Computes the time difference (in number of minutes) between adtme_datefrom and adtme_dateto
////////////////////////////
decimal ld_time_diff
SELECT top 1 DATEDIFF(MINUTE,:adtme_datefrom,:adtme_dateto)
into :ld_time_diff
FROM EMPLOYEE_INFORMATION
USING SQLCA;
if SQLCA.SQLCODE = -1 then
Messagebox('SQL ERROR',SQLCA.SQLERRTEXT)
return -1
end if
return ld_time_diff
Seems like passing datetime variables causes the error above. Other scripts are working fine.
Create a transaction user object inherited trom transaction.
Put logic in the sqlpreview of your object to capture and log the sql statement being sent to the db.
Instantiate it, connect to the db, and use it in your embedded sql.
Assuming the user gets the error you can then check what was being sent to the db and go from there.
The error in your first statement should be the second parameter to CONVERT function.
It's type is not a string, it's type is an valid expression
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/t-sql/functions/cast-and-convert-transact-sql
So I would expect that your
CONVERT(DATETIME,:ls_datetime)
would evaluate to
CONVERT(DATETIME, 'ls_datetime')
but it should be
CONVERT(DATETIME, DateTimeColumn)
The error in your second statement could be that you're providing an wrong datetime format.
So please check if your error still occurs when you use this function
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/t-sql/statements/set-dateformat-transact-sql
with the correct datetime format you're using
