Error: Invalid Length Parameter Passed To The SUBSTRING Function.

Sep 28, 2007

Hi,

I am using a simple procedure to pivot results (found in another forum and adapted it). It is done on SQL Server 2005 server with all service packs. Procedure:
**************
ALTER Procedure [dbo].[EthnicityPivot] @StDate as Datetime, @EndDate as Datetime
as
begin
DECLARE @Teams varchar(2000)

truncate table ForEthnicPivot

INSERT INTO ForEthnicPivot
SELECT DISTINCT COUNT(ID), Team, Ethnicity
FROM dbo._EthnicityByTeamEpisode
where Startdate between @StDate and @EndDate
GROUP BY Ethnicity, Team

SET @Teams = ''
--// Get a list of the pivot columns that are important to you.

SELECT @Teams = @Teams + '[' + Team + '],'
FROM (SELECT Distinct Team FROM ForEthnicPivot) Team
--// Remove the trailing comma

SET @Teams = LEFT(@Teams, LEN(@Teams)-1)
--// Now execute the Select with the PIVOT and dynamically add the list
--// of dates for the columns
EXEC( 'SELECT * FROM ForEthnicPivot PIVOT (SUM(countID) FOR Team IN (' + @Teams + ')) AS X' )
end
************

I can call the function:
exec EthnicityPivot '01/01/2007','09/09/2007'

and it works fine in SQL analyzer, but when I want to use it in Visual Studio in a new report I am getting this error
message:

There is an error in the query. Invalid length parameter passed to the SUBSTRING function. Incorrect syntax near ')'.

Anyone had similar error and sorted it?

Cheers

Odd Error Upon SqlDataReader.Read() Invalid Length Parameter Passed To The Substring Function.

Nov 12, 2003

An application I developed normally works great, but it seems that when processing a certian record (and none of the others so far), SQL Server throws this error:
"Invalid length parameter passed to the substring function."

Here's the code in question:

orderConnection.Open()
orderReader = orderCommand.ExecuteReader()
setControls(orderReader)

...

Private Sub setControls(ByVal dr As SqlDataReader)
If (dr.Read()) Then '<--*******problem line*******

The SqlDataReader (orderReader) doesn't blow up or anything until I call .Read() (and, as mentioned, this problem only occurs for one order). What could be happening here?

SQL XML :: Scalar Valued Function Slow Querying XML Passed As Parameter

May 28, 2015

I have a procedure that calls a SVF to convert an xmldocument. The ultimate purpose is to update the xml in a column in a multi-million row table. The xml is stored as varchar(MAX), it was supposed to carry any type of text, initially at least.

My question is: why is the xml-parsing performed inside the function much slower when i pass the xmldocument as type xml than when it is passed as varchar(MAX) and the CAST to xml is within the function? Does processing the xml input parameter in SlowFunction involve expensive crossing of some context border?

The two versions of the SVF (they return the rowcount in this simplified example):

CREATE FUNCTION [dbo].[FastFunction]
(
@inDetaljerText varchar(MAX)
)
RETURNS int

[Code] ....

The two versions of the SP

CREATE PROCEDURE [dbo].[FastProcedure]
AS
BEGIN
SET NOCOUNT ON;
select
dbo.FastFunction(al.Detaljer)

[Code] ....

Substring With Zero Length?

Sep 19, 2007

I'm using a substring expression in a Derived Column transformation to create a new column (string data) out of a segment of another. The length of the new column data is calculated at run time based on the contents of other columns, and under some circumstances may be zero.

Is this kocher, or will it lead to 'unpredictable' results? Coz unexpected results is what I'm getting, not in the row concerned, but in the rows following......

RS 2005: Stored Procedure With Parameter It Runs In The Data Tab But The Report Parameter Is Not Passed To It

Feb 19, 2007

Hello,
since a couple of days I'm fighting with RS 2005 and the Stored Procedure.

I have to display the result of a parameterized query and I created a SP that based in the parameter does something:

SET ANSI_NULLS ON
SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON
CREATE PROCEDURE [schema].[spCreateReportTest]
@Name nvarchar(20)= ''

AS
BEGIN

declare @slqSelectQuery nvarchar(MAX);

SET NOCOUNT ON
set @slqSelectQuery = N'SELECT field1,field2,field3 from table'
if (@Name <> '')
begin
set @slqSelectQuery = @slqSelectQuery + ' where field2=''' + @Name + ''''
end
EXEC sp_executesql @slqSelectQuery
end

Inside my business Intelligence Project I created:
-the shared data source with the connection String
- a data set :
CommandType = Stored Procedure
Query String = schema.spCreateReportTest
When I run the Query by mean of the "!" icon, the parameter is Prompted and based on the value I provide the proper result set is displayed.

Now I move to "Layout" and my undertanding is that I have to create a report Paramater which values is passed to the SP's parameter...
So inside"Layout" tab, I added the parameter: Name
allow blank value is checked and is non-queried

the problem is that when I move to Preview -> I set the value into the parameter field automatically created but when I click on "View Report" nothing has been generated!!

What is wrong? What I forgot??

Thankx for any help!
Marina B.

SQL2K/Log Reader Fails With Error 9003 The LSN Passed To Log Scan Is Invalid

Aug 8, 2007

Hi All,
We have transactional replication between two SQL Server 2000, SP4 and database is in simple recovery.
Occassionally Logreader agent fails with error 9003 (The LSN (164051:119090:22) passed to log scan in database 'ReportDB' is
invalid).
But in April 2007 this error has occurred multiple times. We have opened the case with PSS in April 2007 but till now there
is no concrete solution.

Error details in ErrorLog:
2007-04-24 16:49:09.79 spid59 Error: 9003, Severity: 20, State: 1
2007-04-24 16:49:09.79 spid59 The LSN (164051:119090:22) passed to log scan in database 'ReportDB' is invalid..
Error details in Log reader agent:
Repl Agent Status: 3
Publisher: {call sp_repldone ( 0x000280d30001d1320016, 0x000280d30001d1320016, 0, 0)}
Publisher: {call sp_replcmds (100, 0)}
Status: 0, code: 0, text: 'The process could not execute 'sp_replcmds' on 'BR14D135R17'.'.
The process could not execute 'sp_replcmds' on 'BR14D135R17'.
Repl Agent Status: 6
Status: 0, code: 9003, text: 'The LSN (164051:119090:22) passed to log scan in database 'ReportDB' is invalid.'.

From above error details it can be seen that sp_repldone is already called for LSN 164051:119090:22 (0x000280d30001d1320016)
which means it is distributed.
Since LSN is distributed, transaction log of publisher for that LSN can be truncated by checkpoint process. And afterward if
logreader issues sp_replcmds for that LSN, we will get 9003 error.
So, question is why Logreader is looking for LSN if that is already distributed.
When checked "DBCC Opentran", it also reflect oldest distributed LSN as 164051:119090:22.

We tried changing the recovery model to FULL but that has only delayed the occurrence.
Once we have noticed that LSN mentioned in Error 9003 was already backed up one day before. And we don't think replication latency to be more than 3 hrs
(maximum).

After PSS recommendation, we have applied the hotfix 2187 but error has occurred again after one month.
Other recommendation is to disable read cache of hardware controller to avoid stale read(that we are working on). Current
setting is 100% read and 0% Write.

Other Details:
SQL Server 2000 Enterprise Edition SP4 with Hotfix 2187
Window 2000 Advanced Server.
RAID 5 with array controller as HP Smart Array 641 Controller

Please let me know if you have faced such issue and have any idea on this problem.

Thanks,
Ramesh

SQLDescribeParam With Subselect: Invalid Parameter Number/Invalid Descriptor Index

Apr 21, 2008

Hello,

I've got the following query:

SELECT zA."ID" AS fA_A
, zA."TEXT" AS fA_B
, (
SELECT COUNT(zC."ID")
FROM Test."Booking" AS zC
) AS fA_E
FROM Test."Stack" AS zA
WHERE zA."ID" = ?

With this query I call:
- SQLPrepare -> SQL_SUCCESS=0
- SQLNumParams -> SQL_SUCCESS=0, pcpar = 1
- SQLDescribeParam( 1 ) -> SQL_ERROR=-1, [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver]Invalid parameter number", "[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver]Invalid Descriptor Index"

Is there a problem with this calling sequence or this query? Or is this a problem of SQL Server?

Regards
Markus

Make Use Of An Passed XML Parameter

Nov 19, 2007

I have tested the following code, and it works for me:

DECLARE @XML XML
SET @XML = '
<DocumentElement>
<data>
<item code="ABCDEFG" quantity="1" sort="0" />
<item code="XCFVGBF" quantity="1" sort="0" />
<item code="ABCDEFG" quantity="10" sort="0" />
</data>
</DocumentElement>'

SELECT SUM(x.qty * ISNULL(p.price_mn,0))
FROM (SELECT [Code] = A.A.value('@code','varchar(20)'),
[Qty] = A.A.value('@quantity','INT')
FROM @xml.nodes('/DocumentElement/data/item') AS A(A)) X
LEFT JOIN productprice_t P ON p.code_id = x.code


The question is, how can I do this if the XML is in a different format & doesn't use any attributes?
So it looks like this (which I'm getting from an ADO.Net datatable using .WriteXML):
<DocumentElement>
<data>
<code>ABCDEFG</mercurycode>
<quantity>1</quantity>
<sort>0</sort>
</data>
<data>
<mercurycode>XCDFEG</mercurycode>
<quantity>2</quantity>
<sort>0</sort>
</data>
<data>
<code>ABCDEFG</mercurycode>
<quantity>10</quantity>
<sort>0</sort>
</data>
</DocumentElement>

Parameter Value Not Being Passed For My SProc

Mar 19, 2007

I am quite new to SSRS and am having some difficulties in trying to develop a new report via Business Intelligence Studio based on a stored procedure which requires the input of 1 parameter, and also has an optional parameter which I default to NULL in the sproc.

When I create my dataset I select the given sproc I want and when I attempt to execute it, I am prompted for the parameters the sproc expects.

However, when I enter a value in the dialog for the required Parameter I get a SQL error indicating that the parameter the sproc expects was not supplied. I have profiled the call and see the attempt to execute the sproc, but no parameter value.

Can some one tell me why the value I enter is not being passed to the sproc in my database ? Is there some special syntax that I need to use ?

I have scanned a number of sites & through the books I have and can't find anything on this. From what I have read, when I exec my sproc the parameters get recongnized & I can just enter my values. This doesn't seem to be the case.

Any help and/or suggestions are appreciated !!!
Thanks.

Substring Function

Jun 20, 2008

it's early in the morning (well it is here anyway) and i need a shot of logic...

in the data base i'm currently working with i have a varchar field that holds either a number or a collection of numbers in square brackets. I need to extract the number or the first number in square brackets if it's a list. i know it's gonna be a simple one but my head just won't do it?? i'm trying with substring and charindex to determine the position of the '[' but just not getting it this morning

quick sample of what the data in this column may look like...


declare @t table (col varchar(30))
insert into @t
select '2' union all
select '[5] [4]' union all
select ' [12] [1]'


so i need to get...


col
-------
2
5
12


EDIT-
OK, so i get this to work but only if there is actually square brackets


declare @t table (col varchar(30))
insert into @t
--select '2'union all
select '[5] [4]'union all
select ' [12] [1]'

select col
,substring(col, charindex('[',col)+1, charindex(']',col)-charindex('[',col)-1)
from @t

The Dropdowns have the following SQLDatasources:<asp:SqlDataSource ID="ChurchStateDropData" runat="server"                               ConnectionString="<%$ ConnectionStrings:tceDatabaseOnlineSQLConnection %>"                                SelectCommand="SELECT DISTINCT                                                                        [State]                                                             FROM [ChurchView]"                               DataSourceMode="DataReader"></asp:SqlDataSource>
<asp:SqlDataSource ID="ChurchCityDropData" runat="server"                                ConnectionString="<%$ ConnectionStrings:tceDatabaseOnlineSQLConnection %>"                               SelectCommand="SELECT DISTINCT                                                                        [City]                                                             FROM [ChurchView]                                                          WHERE ([State] = @State)"                               DataSourceMode="DataReader">                               <SelectParameters>                                 <asp:ControlParameter ControlID="ChurchStateDrop"                                                                   Name="State" PropertyName="SelectedValue" Type="String" />                               </SelectParameters></asp:SqlDataSource>
Now, lets say I wanted to pass a value to the WHERE statement in ChurchCityDropData to coincide with 'All States', what would I replace value="??????" with? Now you may think I'm crazy to do such a thing, but this actually has to do with adding a Denomination Dropdown to show Denominations from all states or all cities. I will figure out the best logic for that later, I just want to know the wildcard to pass to the parameter to choose all states (negate filtering).

How To Get Parameter Passed To SQL Query From Access

Jul 23, 2005

I am new to sql and very familiar with access. I am using a verylarge database(130M records) in ms sql2000 and think I need to frontend it with access for reports and forms, etc..I have some questions:1) Is there a way in SQL to prompt a user for input at the running ofa query like the [what is your name] construct in an access query?2) I can't seem to create calculated fields in a view in sql. Inaccess I put "total:=hours*rate" and a new column would be createdwhich would contain the total.3) I normally would create a form in access from which the accessqueries would pull their variables and then insert those variables inthe queries or reports, etc. How would this be accomplished usingsql.4) Lastly and probably most basic. How does a "real" sql developercreate reports and forms to interact with the enduser? I am usingaccess as a front end, but am open to suggestions.Thanks,Brad

WHERE Clause Using Different Column Passed By Parameter

Jul 30, 2007

Hi all,

I'd think this is possible but I'm having trouble getting data returned from the query. Fields PART_NUMBER and INTERNAL_SKU exist in the SKU table. This will be inside a SP. If user passes 'PN' as first parameter then I'd need to have the WHERE clause by PART_NUMBER, if he passes 'SK' (or anything else for now) then the WHERE clause shold be by SKU.

Can't I just build the WHERE by replacing @SearchField with its value ? I've looked up the CASE statement but I don't think it does what I need.


DECLARE @strSearchType varchar(2)

DECLARE @strSearchValue varchar(15)

DECLARE @SearchField varchar(15)

set @strSearchType = 'PN'

set @strSearchValue = '1234567'


IF @strSearchType = 'PN'

begin

set @SearchField = 'PART_NUMBER'

end

ELSE

begin

set @SearchField = 'INTERNAL_SKU'

end

SELECT

SKU as 'SKU',

PART_NUMBER as 'PartNumber',

DESCRIPTION as 'Description'

FROM SKUs

WHERE @SearchField = @strSearchValue

FOR XML PATH('SKU'), ROOT('Response')


Thanks,

ST

SQL Server 2012 :: Possible To Tell Whether Function Passed A Value Or Used Default Value

Apr 22, 2015

I have a function that accepts a date parameter and uses getdate() as its default value. If a date is passed in, I'm going to have to find records using the datediff method based on input. If no date is passed, I am going to bypass the datediff logic and search for records based on a column called "is_current" which will reduce the query time.

However, I don't know how to tell if the date value in the function came from an input or was the default.
