What does the SQLERRM Function do? The SQLERRM function returns the error message associated with the most recently raised error exception. This function should only be used within the Exception Handling section of your code. Syntax The syntax for the SQLERRM function in Oracle/PLSQL is: SQLERRM

Parameters or Arguments There are no parameters or arguments for the SQLERRM function. Note See also the SQLCODE function. Example Since EXCEPTION HANDLING is usually written with the following syntax: EXCEPTION WHEN exception_name1 THEN [statements] WHEN exception_name2 THEN [statements] WHEN exception_name_n THEN [statements] WHEN OTHERS THEN [statements] END [procedure_name]; You could use the SQLERRM function to raise an error as follows: EXCEPTION WHEN OTHERS THEN raise_application_error(-20001,'An error was encountered - '||SQLCODE||' -ERROR- '||SQLERRM); END; Or you could log the error to a table using the SQLERRM function as follows: EXCEPTION WHEN OTHERS THEN err_code := SQLCODE; err_msg := SUBSTR(SQLERRM, 1, 200); INSERT INTO audit_table (error_number, error_message) VALUES (err_code, err_msg); END; NEXT: Declare Cursor Share this page: Advertisement Back to top Home | About Us | Contact Us | Testimonials | Donate While using this site, you agree to have read and accepted our Terms of Service and Privacy Policy.

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 spells the https://www.techonthenet.com/oracle/exceptions/sqlerrm.php 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 how you can report http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/issue-archive/2012/12-mar/o22plsql-1518275.html 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 is, you can give a name to an ot
is useful only in an exception handler. Outside a handler, SQLERRM with no argument always returns the normal, http://docs.oracle.com/cd/B19306_01/appdev.102/b14261/sqlerrm_function.htm successful completion message. For internal exceptions, SQLERRM returns the message associated with the Oracle error that occurred. The message begins with the Oracle error code. For user-defined http://psoug.org/reference/exception_handling.html exceptions, SQLERRM returns the message user-defined exception, unless you used the pragma EXCEPTION_INIT to associate the exception with an Oracle error number, in which case SQLERRM oracle sql returns the corresponding error message. For more information, see "Retrieving the Error Code and Error Message: SQLCODE and SQLERRM". Syntax sqlerrm function ::= Description of the illustration sqlerrm_function.gif Keyword and Parameter Description error_number A valid Oracle error number. For a list of Oracle errors (ones prefixed by ORA-), see Oracle Database Error Messages. Usage oracle pl sql Notes SQLERRM is especially useful in the OTHERS exception handler, where it lets you identify which internal exception was raised. The error number passed to SQLERRM should be negative. Passing a zero to SQLERRM always returns the ORA-0000: normal, successful completion message. Passing a positive number to SQLERRM always returns the User-Defined Exception message unless you pass +100, in which case SQLERRM returns the ORA-01403: no data found message. You cannot use SQLERRM directly in a SQL statement. Assign the value of SQLERRM to a local variable first, as shown in Example 13-6. When using pragma RESTRICT_REFERENCES to assert the purity of a stored function, you cannot specify the constraints WNPS and RNPS if the function calls SQLERRM.

If the statement fails, Oracle rolls back to the savepoint. Normally, just the failed SQL statement is rolled back, not the whole transaction. However, if the statement raises an unhandled exception, the host environment determines what is rolled back. If you exit a stored subprogram with an unhandled exception, PL/SQL does not assign values to OUT parameters. Also, PL/SQL does not roll back database work done by the subprogram. At the level of the SQL*Plus prompt, every update/insert/delete has one implicit savepoint, and also the invocation of any unnamed block. Below that, the unnamed block itself has 'sub' savepoints - one foreach insert/update/delete statement in it, and one for each subprogram unit. And so on down the line. If an error occurs, and that error is handled at any level by the time we're back at the SQL*Plus prompt, we only rollback to the immediate savepoint at the start of the update/insert/delete that errors. Otherwise we rollback to the top-level 'virtual' savepoint currently in existence, which is my offending unnamed block. That is, a handled error is handled and so can be dealt with without rolling back all the way to the top. It is handled and the transaction proceeds. Commits define the end of a transaction (and start of a new one) - rollbacks only define the end of a transaction if they rollback to the last commit, rather than savepoint (whether explicit or implicit). I came to my 'version' from the following by no means exhaustive tests: CASE 1: I created a table a with one column, a1 number, and at the sqlplus prompt inserted a row with a1 = 1. I then ran that unnamed block I referred in an earlier post that, without an exception handler, does the following: INSERT INTO a VALUES (2); INSERT INTO a VALUES (3); INSERT INTO a VALUES ('a'); As expected I get an unhandled error on the last line. When I do a select for everything in the table a, I get the first row I inserted 'manually', the one with a1 =
