PL/SQL invalid cursor error - sql

So I really don't have any idea why my cursor isn't working. The select statement works fine, so I'm not sure why the SQL server is throwing the error. The For loop has an implicit open and close, so that shouldn't be the problem either. Any ideas?
DECLARE
var_lname customer.c_last%TYPE;
var_fname customer.c_first%TYPE;
var_addr customer.c_address%TYPE;
var_phone customer.c_dphone%TYPE;
CURSOR expl_cursor IS SELECT c_last, c_first, c_address, c_dphone from customer;
cust_record expl_cursor%ROWTYPE;
BEGIN
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('ClearWater Traders Mailing List');
FOR cust_record IN expl_cursor
LOOP
FETCH expl_cursor INTO cust_record;
var_lname := cust_record.c_last;
var_fname := cust_record.c_first;
var_addr := cust_record.c_address;
var_phone := cust_record.c_dphone;
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE(var_lname || ' ' || var_fname || ' ' ||
var_addr || ' ' || var_phone);
END LOOP;
END;
Here's the error:
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-01001: invalid cur
ORA-06512: at line 15

Ah I solved this. Can't do a FETCH inside a for loop. Since the cursor is incremented automatically.

SQL Invalid Identifier when using bind variable

Using my anonymous block I have written below, the bind variable is giving me the error: I've pasted a picture of the table below.
edit: ETHI1022 is the input I'm giving for the CORID
v_corid CHAR(8) := ETHI1022;

I realize my inner join is most likely messed up like no other. I'm trying to learn this stuff and am having a very hard time learning how taking values from the select statement and placing them into the variables in the declare section works.
DECLARE
v_marstuid MARKS.STUID%TYPE;
v_corid CHAR(8) := &corid;
v_avgmark NUMBER(2);
v_maxmark NUMBER(2);
v_minmark NUMBER(2);
v_cordesc VARCHAR2(255);

v_minmark, v_cordesc
FROM marks M
inner join courses C
ON M.corid = C.corid
WHERE C.corid = v_corid;
dbms_output.Put_line (v_corid

[Table used]
Instead of ETHI1022 it should be 'ETHI1022'. Your inner join is fine. From where you are getting value of corid. Make it of type varchar/string or something like that.
Or you might try v_corid CHAR(8) := ''''||&corid||'''';

PL/SQL: Cursor doubles the last record from the table

I created the following PL/SQL anonymous block. The cursor below retrieves data from the select statement:
select mod_benutzer, count(*)
from dok_auspraegung
where parent_objekt_id = 1093
group by mod_benutzer;
This statement displays exactly two records:
DDMS_USER | 8
HU2MAMU | 14
But when I want to display these two records by cursor, it displays "HU2MAMU|14" two times like below:
Modifications:
DDMS_USER, 8x
HU2MAMU, 14x
HU2MAMU, 14x
declare
my_exception_1 exception;
var_parent_objekt_id dok_auspraegung.parent_objekt_id%TYPE := 1093;
var_date varchar(30);
var_mod_benutzer varchar2(10);
var_benutzer_modifs number;
cursor cursor_dok_auspraegung
is select mod_benutzer, count(*) from dok_auspraegung
where parent_objekt_id = 10935797565
group by mod_benutzer;
begin
select distinct to_char(mod_datum,'YYYY-MON-DD') into var_date from dok_auspraegung where parent_objekt_id = var_parent_objekt_id;
IF var_date is not null THEN
dbms_output.put_line('Parent Object ID' || ': ' || var_parent_objekt_id);
dbms_output.put_line('Date: ' || ' ' || var_date);
ELSE RAISE my_exception_1;
END IF;
open cursor_dok_auspraegung;
dbms_output.put_line('Modifications:');
loop
fetch cursor_dok_auspraegung into var_mod_benutzer, var_benutzer_modifs;
dbms_output.put(var_mod_benutzer);
dbms_output.put_line(', ' || var_benutzer_modifs || 'x');
exit when cursor_dok_auspraegung%notfound;
end loop;
dbms_output.put_line(cursor_dok_auspraegung%rowcount);
close cursor_dok_auspraegung;
exception
when NO_DATA_FOUND then
dbms_output.put_line('Parent Object ID not found!');
when my_exception_1 then
dbms_output.put_line('');
end;
What is the reason of that?
Because exiting from the cursor occurs after printing the value of the variables in the current case, this repeats the last value to be printed. So, it should occur before printing as follows
loop
fetch cursor_dok_auspraegung into var_mod_benutzer, var_benutzer_modifs;
exit when cursor_dok_auspraegung%notfound;
dbms_output.put(var_mod_benutzer);
dbms_output.put_line(', ' || var_benutzer_modifs || 'x');
end loop;

PLSQL does not compile when substracting two long variables

I'm writing a pretty basic procedure where I need to substract two long variables and assign the value to the other variable. But the code doesn't compile and I am getting hopeless - why is that?
create or replace PROCEDURE TrendCalculator(p_id Prodeje.product%TYPE)
AS
v_week_last Prodeje.WEEK%TYPE;
v_week_current Prodeje.WEEK%TYPE;
v_year_last Prodeje.YEAR%TYPE;
v_year_current Prodeje.YEAR%TYPE;
v_weekly_sales_last PRODEJE.SALES%TYPE;
v_weekly_sales_current PRODEJE.SALES%TYPE;
v_pomocna PRODEJE.SALES%TYPE;
CURSOR c_data IS SELECT WEEK, YEAR, SALES FROM Prodeje WHERE PRODUCT = p_id ORDER BY YEAR, WEEK ASC;
BEGIN
v_pomocna := 0;
OPEN c_data;
LOOP
FETCH c_data INTO v_week_current, v_year_current, v_weekly_sales_current;
EXIT WHEN c_data%NOTFOUND;
IF (v_weekly_sales_last IS NOT NULL) THEN
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE(p_id || ' ' || v_week_current || ' ' || v_year_current || ' ' || v_weekly_sales_current);
v_pomocna := (v_weekly_sales_current - v_weekly_sales_last);
END IF;
v_week_last := v_week_current;
v_year_last := v_year_current;
v_weekly_sales_last := v_weekly_sales_current;
END LOOP;
CLOSE c_data;
END;
The Error messages I'm getting are:
Error(19,9): PL/SQL: Statement ignored
Error(19,95): PLS-00306: wrong number or types of arguments in call to '-'
And PRODEJE.SALES Datatype is LONG.
v_weekly_sales_last is not set to anything. So line 19 evaluates to
v_pomocna := (v_weekly_sales_current - );
Which seems to be the cause of your error.

ORA-00933 Error for to_char formatting PLSQL

I have the following codes:
IF nvl(p_value, 0) >= 0 THEN
l_currency_prefix := 'scc.currency_prefix_pos';
l_currency_suffix := 'scc.currency_suffix_pos';
ELSE
l_currency_prefix := 'scc.currency_prefix_neg';
l_currency_suffix := 'scc.currency_suffix_neg';
END IF;
l_query := 'SELECT nvl('||l_currency_prefix||', '')'
||'trim(to_char('||p_value||
',scc.currency_format
,'||'NLS_NUMERIC_CHARACTERS=' || 'scc.decimal_group_separator'||'))'
||'nvl('||l_currency_suffix||', '')
FROM gss.gss_currency_locale scc
WHERE scc.country_code =' ||p_country_code||
'AND scc.currency_code ='|| p_currency_code||
'AND rownum=1';
and here is the dbms output for l_query:
SELECT nvl(scc.currency_prefix_pos, ')trim(to_char(10000,scc.currency_format
,NLS_NUMERIC_CHARACTERS=scc.decimal_group_separator))nvl(scc.currency_suffix_pos, ')
FROM gss.gss_currency_locale scc
WHERE scc.country_code =USAND scc.currency_code =USDAND rownum=1
However, it keep showing an ORA-00933 errors.
I debug these piece of code for few hours and could not find where is the errors.
Could some one please provide some advice on this?
Now some of the problems are obvious. You need something like this:
l_query := 'SELECT nvl('||l_currency_prefix||',
||'trim(to_char('||p_value||
',scc.currency_format || ')' ||
FROM gss.gss_currency_locale scc
WHERE scc.country_code = ''' ||p_country_code|| '''' ||
' AND scc.currency_code = '''|| p_currency_code|| '''' ||
' AND rownum=1';
(I'm not sure if that is 100 percent correct.)
Usually, when creating queries this way, I use replace() instead of direct substitution. Something like:
l_query := 'select nvl(#currency_prefix, trim(#p_value, #currency_format))
from . . . ';
l_query := replace(l_query, '#currency_prefix', l_currency_prefix);
l_query := replace(l_query, '#p_value', p_value);
. . .
I find that this approach makes it much easier to maintain the code and to see what it is doing.

pl sql query takes more time to execute

I found this PL/SQL at my workplace and I couldn't find the reason why this script takes so much time to execute:
DECLARE
query VARCHAR(500);
ref_cur REFCURSOR;
product_listH VARCHAR(1000):='';
product_listA VARCHAR(1000):='';
product_listP VARCHAR(1000):='';
product VARCHAR(100):='';
begin
query := ' select hotelname
from sch1.resconfirmsv rr,
sch1.reshoteldetailssv hd,sch2.respkgconfirmsv r '||
' where rr.id = hd.resconfirmid and
hd.resconfirmid = r.hotelconfirmid and
r.id = ' || m_resconfirmid || '';
OPEN ref_cur FOR EXECUTE query;
LOOP
FETCH ref_cur INTO product;
IF NOT FOUND THEN
EXIT; -- exit loop
END IF;
product_listH := product_listH||''||trim(COALESCE(product,'-'))||',<br>';
END LOOP;
product_listH := rtrim(trim(product_listH),',<br>');
CLOSE ref_cur;
query := ' select distinct programname
from sch1.resconfirmsv rr,
sch3.resactivitysv a,
sch3.resprogramsv hx,
sch2.respkgconfirmsv r '||
' where rr.id = hx.resconfirmid and
hx.id=a.resprogramid and
hx.resconfirmid = r.activitiesconfirmid and
r.id = ' || m_resconfirmid || '';
OPEN ref_cur FOR EXECUTE query;
LOOP
FETCH ref_cur INTO product;
IF NOT FOUND THEN
EXIT; -- exit loop
END IF;
product_listA := product_listA||''||trim(COALESCE(product,'-'))||',<br>';
END LOOP;
product_listA := rtrim(trim(product_listA),',<br>');
CLOSE ref_cur;
product_listP := product_listH || ',<br>' || product_listA;
product_listP := rtrim(trim(product_listP),',<br>');
product_listP = ltrim(rtrim(product_listP,',<br>'),',<br>');
RETURN product_listP;
end;
without this script total run-time is 12.176 sec and with this script it takes up to 18.802 sec.means this gets at least 6 seconds to execute. All the needed columns are indexed. Anybody can tell me where the places need to be more optimize in this query?
Why declaring the cursor as a seperate varchar?
Instead i'd use the normal declaration of a cursor, it takes time to analyze the query to be executed by Oracle, so (between the declare- and Begin-labels of your current code:
cursor ref_cur as
select distinct programname
from sch1.resconfirmsv rr,
sch3.resactivitysv a,
sch3.resprogramsv hx,
sch2.respkgconfirmsv r '||
where rr.id = hx.resconfirmid and
hx.id=a.resprogramid and
hx.resconfirmid = r.activitiesconfirmid and
r.id = m_resconfirmid;
Now you can use
For x in ref_cur loop
The same thing for query#2.
