Using DBMS_ERRLOG This section contains topics which relate to using the DBMS_ERRLOG package. Security Model Security Model Security on this package can be controlled by granting oracle dml error logging 11gr2 EXECUTE on this package to selected users or roles. The EXECUTE privilege is granted publicly. However, to create an error logging table, you need SELECT access on the base table or view, the CREATE TABLE privilege, as well as tablespace quota for the target tablespace. Summary of DBMS_ERRLOG Subprograms Table 38-1 DBMS_ERRLOG Package oracle merge log errors example Subprograms Subprogram Description CREATE_ERROR_LOG Procedure Creates the error logging table used in DML error logging CREATE_ERROR_LOG Procedure This procedure creates the error logging table needed to use the DML error logging capability. LONG, CLOB, BLOB, BFILE, and ADT datatypes are not supported in the columns. Syntax DBMS_ERRLOG.CREATE_ERROR_LOG ( dml_table_name IN VARCHAR2, err_log_table_name IN VARCHAR2 := NULL, err_log_table_owner IN VARCHAR2 := NULL, err_log_table_space IN VARCHAR2 := NULL, skip_unsupported IN BOOLEAN := FALSE); Parameters Table 38-2 CREATE_ERROR_LOG Procedure Parameters Parameter Description dml_table_name The name of the DML table to base the error logging table on. The name can be fully qualified (for example, emp, scott.emp, "EMP", "SCOTT"."EMP"). If a name component is enclosed in double quotes, it will not be upper cased. err_log_table_name The name of the error logging table you will create. The default is the first 25 characters in the name of the DML table prefixed with 'ERR$_'. Examples are the following: dml_table_name: 'EMP', e

is possible and even likely that something will go wrong and an error will occur when those programs are run. How your code responds to and deals with that error often https://docs.oracle.com/cd/B19306_01/appdev.102/b14258/d_errlog.htm spells the difference between a successful application and one that creates all sorts of problems for users as well as developers. This article explores the world of error management in PL/SQL: the different types of exceptions you may encounter; when, why, and how exceptions are raised; how to define your own exceptions; how you can handle exceptions when they occur; and http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/issue-archive/2012/12-mar/o22plsql-1518275.html how you can report information about problems back to your users. Exception Overview There are three categories of exceptions in the world of PL/SQL: internally defined, predefined, and user-defined. An internally defined exception is one that is raised internally by an Oracle Database process; this kind of exception always has an error code but does not have a name unless it is assigned one by PL/SQL or your own code. An example of an internally defined exception is ORA-00060 (deadlock detected while waiting for resource). A predefined exception is an internally defined exception that is assigned a name by PL/SQL. Most predefined exceptions are defined in the STANDARD package (a package provided by Oracle Database that defines many common programming elements of the PL/SQL language) and are among the most commonly encountered exceptions. One example is ORA-00001, which is assigned the name DUP_VAL_ON_INDEX in PL/SQL and is raised when a unique index constraint is violated. A user-defined exception is one you have declared in the declaration section of a program unit. User-defined exceptions can be associated with an internally defined exception (that
TECHNOLOGY: Performance Faster Batch Processing By Mark Rittman LOG ERRORS handles errors quickly and simplifies batch loading. When you need to load millions of rows of data into a table, the most efficient way is usually to use an INSERT, http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/testcontent/o26performance-096310.html UPDATE, or MERGE statement to process your data in bulk. Similarly, if you want to delete thousands of rows, using a DELETE statement is usually faster than using procedural code. But what if the data you intend to load contains values that might cause an integrity or check constraint to be violated, or what if some values are too big for the column they are to be loaded into? You may well have loaded error log 999,999 rows into your table, but that last row, which violates a check constraint, causes the whole statement to fail and roll back. In situations such as this, you have to use an alternative approach to loading your data. For example, if your data is held in a file, you can use SQL*Loader to automatically handle data that raises an error, but then you have to put together a control file, run SQL*Loader from the table in oracle command line, and check the output file and the bad datafile to detect any errors. If, however, your data is held in a table or another object, you can write a procedure or an anonymous block to process your data row by row, loading the valid rows and using exception handling to process those rows that raise an error. You might even use BULK COLLECT and FORALL to handle data in your PL/SQL routine more efficiently, but even with these improvements, handling your data in this manner is still much slower than performing a bulk load by using a direct-path INSERT DML statement. Until now, you could take advantage of the set-based performance of INSERT, UPDATE, MERGE, and DELETE statements only if you knew that your data was free from errors; in all other circumstances, you needed to resort to slower alternatives. All of this changes with the release of Oracle Database 10g Release 2, which introduces a new SQL feature called DML error logging. Efficient Error Handling DML error logging enables you to write INSERT, UPDATE, MERGE, or DELETE statements that automatically deal with certain constraint violations. With this new feature, you use the new LOG ERRORS clause in your DML statement and Oracle Database automatically handles exceptions, writing erroneous data and details of the error message to an error logging
