I am encountering a display issue with my SQL code and was hoping someone could help me figure out whats going on. When I create my CUSTOMER table then INSERT a line of values it works successfully... however, when I type select * from customer; then it displays horrible output where none of the data is lined up in the columns properly. Can you please take a look at my code and tell me what I can do to fix this.
I have multiple tables in this database and none of the other tables have this issue and display properly. My window was configured using these two lines of code:
SET LINESIZE 132
SET PAGESIZE 50
My table creation code:
CREATE TABLE Customer
(
CustomerID NUMBER(5) NOT NULL CONSTRAINT PK_Customer_CustomerID PRIMARY KEY,
BillingID NUMBER(5) NOT NULL,
CustomerFName VARCHAR2(40) NOT NULL,
CustomerLName VARCHAR2(40) NOT NULL,
CustomerPhone VARCHAR2(10) NOT NULL,
CustomerStreet VARCHAR2(30)NOT NULL,
CustomerCity VARCHAR2(30) NOT NULL,
CustomerState CHAR(2) NOT NULL,
CustomerZip VARCHAR2(9) NOT NULL,
CustomerEmail VARCHAR2(75) NOT NULL,
SignUp_Date DATE DEFAULT sysdate NOT NULL,
CustomerStatus CHAR(1) NOT NULL CONSTRAINT CC_Customer_CustomerStatus CHECK (CustomerStatus IN ('A', 'I')),
InactiveDate DATE,
InactiveReason VARCHAR2(200),
CustomerBillingCycle CHAR(1) NOT NULL CONSTRAINT CC_Customer_CustomerBC CHECK (CustomerBillingCycle IN ('A', 'B'))
);
My line of values being inserted into the table:
INSERT INTO Customer VALUES (01234, 99012, 'Michael', 'Huffaker', '6235551414', '65 N 35th Ln', 'Glendale', 'AZ', '85308', 'm.huffaker#quickmail.com', '29-MAY-2010', 'A', NULL, NULL, 'A');
As I stated above, both of these work successfully and the problem appears when I display the data in the table. Check out the screen shot link below to see the messed up output:

It's not messed up at all; the output lines are just "wrapping" the output after 132 characters. It's very normal. I don't use command line often for running selects, but try routing the output to a file. Or perhaps try with a very large LINESIZE setting (like 1000 or so). Your terminal windows may not support a line that wide.

I am creating a Table named "Cliente" with some constraints on it as it follows:
CREATE TABLE public."Cliente" (
"K_CODCLIENTE" numeric(5) NOT NULL,
"N_NOMBRE1" varchar(15) NOT NULL,
"N_NOMBRE2" varchar(15) NOT NULL,
"N_APELLIDO1" varchar(15) NOT NULL,
"N_APELLIDO2" varchar(15),
"N_DIRECCION" varchar(50) NOT NULL,
"Q_TELEFONO" numeric(10) NOT NULL,
"K_CODREF" numeric(5),
"I_TIPOID" varchar(2) NOT NULL,
"Q_IDENTIFICACION" varchar(10) NOT NULL,
CONSTRAINT "PK_Cliente" PRIMARY KEY ("K_CODCLIENTE"),
CONSTRAINT "UQ_ID_TIPOID_CLIENTE" UNIQUE ("I_TIPOID","Q_IDENTIFICACION"),
CONSTRAINT "CK_CODCLIENTE" CHECK ("K_CODCLIENTE" >= 100),
CONSTRAINT "CK_Q_IDENTIFICACION" CHECK ("Q_IDENTIFICACION" IN ('CC', 'PA', 'CE', 'NI', 'OT'))
);
When I try to insert some values on it:
INSERT INTO "Cliente"
VALUES ('101','Juan','Felipe','Ortiz','Rojas','AK 15 no. 28-05','3101125507',null,'CC','51111111');
I get the following error (in PostgreSQL 14, on Fedora):
[23514] ERROR: new row for relation "Cliente" violates check constraint "CK_Q_IDENTIFICACION"
Detail: Failing row contains (101, Juan, Felipe, Ortiz, Rojas, AK 15 no. 28-05, 3101125507, null, CC, 51111111).
I am trying to restrict the "Q_IDENTIFICACION" column so it can only be filled with 'CC', 'PA', 'CE, 'NI' or 'OT'.
Maybe I'm doing something wrong when declaring the constraint "CK_Q_IDENTIFICACION"?
Seems like you messed up the mapping of values and are trying to insert '51111111' to "Q_IDENTIFICACION".
Consider this more revealing variant with a formatted list of target columns:
INSERT INTO "Cliente"
("K_CODCLIENTE", "N_NOMBRE1", "N_NOMBRE2", "N_APELLIDO1", "N_APELLIDO2", "N_DIRECCION" , "Q_TELEFONO", "K_CODREF", "I_TIPOID", "Q_IDENTIFICACION")
VALUES ('101' , 'Juan' ,'Felipe' , 'Ortiz' , 'Rojas' , 'AK 15 no. 28-05', '3101125507', NULL , 'CC' , '51111111'); -- !
Maybe you want to switch the last two column names in the table definition - and (not) adapt the VALUES list in the INSERT accordingly? (varchar(2) vs. varchar(10) seems switched as well.)
For persisted code, it's generally advisable to spell out target columns in an INSERT command in any case.
Asides:
Reconsider all these pesky double-quoted upper case identifiers. See:
Are PostgreSQL column names case-sensitive?
Consider plain type text instead of varchar(n) with strikingly tight character limits. See:
Any downsides of using data type "text" for storing strings?
I'm doing the study of a medical software. This software asks the patients questions about their symptoms and from them it can determine the possible pathologies. My study involves comparing the symptoms and pathologies found by the software with those from the hospital.
In order to make my work easier, I decided to enter the data in a database made with javadb on netbeans 8.2.
But it seems like that I did something wrong since my statement doesn't work.
I thank you in advance anybody who would take the time to help me.
SQL design:
Create table Patients(
nip varchar(32) primary key,
sexe varchar(8) not null,
age int not null,
dateArrivee timestamp not null,
constraint ck_sexe check(sexe='Male' or sexe='Female'),
constraint ck_age check (age>=0)
);
Create table Symptoms(
symptomID int primary key generated always as identity (start with 1,
increment by 1),
nip varchar(32) not null,
symptom varchar(64),
origin varchar(16) not null,
foreign key (nip) references Patients(nip),
constraint ck_origin check (origin='SOFTWARE' or origin='HOSPITAL')
);
Create table Pathologies(
pathologyID int primary key generated always as identity (start with 1,
increment by 1),
nip varchar(32) not null,
pathology varchar(64),
origin varchar(16) not null,
foreign key (nip) references Patients(nip),
constraint ck_origin check (origin='SOFTWARE' or origin='HOSPITAL')
);
Values entered:
Insert into Patients values ('001','Male', 25, '2019-05-27 14:00:00');
Insert into Patients values ('002', 'Female', 30, '2019-05-26 15:00:00');
Insert into Symptoms values (, '001', 'Headache', 'SOFTWARE');
Insert into Pathologies values (,'001', 'Fever', 'SOFTWARE');
Insert into Symptoms values (,'001', 'Stomache', 'HOSTPITAL');
Insert into Pathologies values (, '001', 'Gastro-enteritis', 'HOSPITAL');
Insert into Symptoms values(,'002', 'Headache', 'SOFTWARE');
Insert into Pathologies values (,'002', 'Unknow', 'SOFTWARE');
SQL statement:
Select *
from (Patients inner join
Symptoms
on Patients.nip = Symptoms.nip
) inner join
Pathologies
on Symptoms.nip = Pathologies.nip
where Symptoms.origin = 'MEDVIR' and
Pathologies.origin = 'MEDVIR';
So sorry I forgot to put the errors I'm getting.
SQL design:
First I have an error concerning the auto_incrementation, even thought this was the good method. It says that the syntax is incorrect near the 'generated'.
Values entered:
Here I have an error concerning the a wrong syntax near the coma (',').
SQL statement:
Lastly I have an error saying that the object 'Patients' is unavaible.
If I am not wrong, you are trying to fetch entries where 'Origin' = 'MEDVIR'
Although, none of your insert statements have Origin as 'MEDVIR'
Please check below,
Select *
from (Patients inner join
Symptoms
on Patients.nip = Symptoms.nip
) inner join
Pathologies
on Symptoms.nip = Pathologies.nip
where Symptoms.origin IN ('SOFTWARE', 'HOSPITAL') and
Pathologies.origin IN ('SOFTWARE', 'HOSPITAL');
Also, some of your INSERT statement has an extra comma before the values, which would cause a syntax error.
I am new to MSSQL 2014 Server, my professor listed these steps to make a table, I don't know the proper steps to create tables in the pictures listed below, please help.
Create and populate (insert values) the following tables per table description and data values provided
DEPARTMENT
EMPLOYEE
PROJECT
ASSIGNMENT
Add a SQL Comment to include /* * Your First Name_Your Last Name* */ when inserting corresponding values for each table.
What I tried so far:
CREATE TABLE DEPARTMENT(
DepartmentName Text(35) PRIMARY KEY,
BudgetCode Text(30) NOT NULL,
OfficeNumber Text(15) NOT NULL,
Phone Text(12) NOT NULL, );
I have put this to my query and the error is
Msg 2716, Level 16, State 1, Line 1 Column, parameter, or variable #1: Cannot specify a column width on data type text.
Try this(I assume that your table exists in dbo schema):
IF OBJECT_ID(N'dbo.DEPARTMENT', N'U') IS NOT NULL
BEGIN
DROP TABLE DEPARTMENT
END
GO
CREATE TABLE DEPARTMENT(
DepartmentName varchar(35) PRIMARY KEY,
BudgetCode varchar(30) NOT NULL,
OfficeNumber varchar(15) NOT NULL,
Phone varchar(12) NOT NULL
);
You can not define width for Text data type. In case which you need to define width you can use char or varchar data types. Also keep in mind that if you need to work with Unicode characters then you will need to use nchar or nvarchar instead.
I have a problem when trying to populate a table using a script using the psql terminal window and the -f option (this executes the script).
I can populate the piste and lift tables fine no problems at all, but i have another table which contains foreign key's to these tables. I can create the table fine, but i cannot add anything to the table, i simply have no idea how to do this.
My tables:
piste {piste_name {PK}, grade, length, fall, open}
lift {lift_name {PK}, lift_type, summit, rise, length, operating}
lift_location {piste_name*{PK}, lift_name*{PK}}
My script:
CREATE TABLE piste (
piste_name varchar(30) PRIMARY KEY NOT NULL,
grade varchar(10) NOT NULL,
length decimal NOT NULL,
fall smallint NOT NULL,
open boolean NOT NULL
);
CREATE TABLE lift (
lift_name varchar(20) PRIMARY KEY NOT NULL,
lift_type varchar(10) NOT NULL,
summit smallint NOT NULL,
rise smallint NOT NULL,
length smallint NOT NULL,
operating boolean NOT NULL
);
CREATE TABLE lift_location (
piste_name varchar(30) REFERENCES piste(piste_name),
lift_name varchar(20) REFERENCES lift(lift_name),
PRIMARY KEY(piste_name, lift_name)
);
so if i insert some values into these tables:
INSERT INTO lift (lift_name, lift_type, summit, rise, length, operating) VALUES
('test lift', 'gondola', 1920, 440, 1600, true);
INSERT INTO piste (piste_name, grade, length, fall, open) VALUES
('test piste, 'medium', 3, 440, true);
These tables will one row with the specified information. based on the above i want my lift_location table to have the following information:
piste_name | lift_name
________________________
test piste | test lift
How can i accomplish this?
Thanks.
Chris.
You need to run an additional query. You need add a new row to the lift_location table to create the relationship between the two rows in the two tables.
INSERT INTO lift_location (piste_name, lift_name) VALUES ('test piste', 'test lift');
Also make sure both lift and piste tables have the required test data. You're missing a ' in your second INSERT query.
i have a table donor_master:
create table donor_master
(
donor_id number(10) primary key not null,
dob date not null,
age number(3) not null,
gender char(1) not null,
blood_group char(3),
contact_no number(10),
address varchar(50) not null,
city varchar(10) not null,
pin number(10) not null,
state varchar(10) not null,
branch_registration_id number(5) references branch_master(branch_id)
);
when i try to insert into the table in a procedure insert_donor_master, i get "not enough values" error on compilation.
this is the procedure:
create or replace procedure insert_donor_master(
vdob donor_master.dob%type,
vage donor_master.age%type,
vgender donor_master.gender%type,
vblood_group donor_master.blood_group%type,
vcontact_no donor_master.contact_no%type,
vaddress donor_master.address%type,
vcity donor_master.city%type,
vpin donor_master.pin%type,
vstate donor_master.state%type,
vbranch_registration_id donor_master.branch_registration_id%type
)
is
begin
insert into donor_master values (sq_donor_master.nextval, vdob, vage, vgender, vblood_group, vcontact_no, vaddress, vcity, vpin, vstate, vbranch_registration_id);
commit;
end;
What is the problem?
Thanks.
Oracle hurls ORA-00947 when we specify an INSERT statement which doesn't have a value for every column in the table.
Now, the CREATE TABLE statement you posted shows a table with eleven columns. And the stored procedure code you posted shows an insert statement with eleven values in the VALUES (...) clause.
So, the explanations are:
you have a configuration management issue, and you're running the wrong version of the stored procedure or the wrong version of the table
you have a configuration management issue, and the actual structure of the table isn't what you think it is (doesn't match your CREATE TABLE script)
you aren't really getting an ORA-00947 error
Note that if you don't want to populate every row you can specify a projection of the relevant columns before the VALUES clause. For instance, if you just wanted to populate the mandatory columns you would code this:
insert into donor_master
(donor_id, dob, age, gender, address, city, pin, state )
values (sq_donor_master.nextval, vdob, vage, vgender, vaddress, vcity, vpin, vstate)
All that matters is that the number of values matches the number of columns.
