Hi Guys!

We have a problem with the Oracle database and noticed the following situation:

By "SQL Query" command, we are executing the instruction below:

SELECT a.cd_commod          AS Mercadoria ,
  a.cd_mercad               AS Mercado ,
  a.cd_serie                AS Vencimento ,
  SUM(ABS(a.qt_qtdesp))     AS Quantidade ,
  a.tp_negocio              AS Tipo ,
  SUM(ABS(a.vl_corneg_bro)) AS Repasse
FROM vmfrepcor_h a ,
  tscclibmf c
WHERE a.dt_datmov      >= to_date('01/07/2011', 'dd/mm/yyyy')
AND a.dt_datmov        <= to_date('31/07/2011', 'dd/mm/yyyy')
AND a.cd_origem         = 147
AND a.cd_commod         = 'DDI'
AND c.codcli            = a.cd_cliente
AND c.cd_cliente_liqfin = 7983
GROUP BY a.dt_negocio ,
  a.cd_corresp ,
  a.cd_commod ,
  a.cd_mercad ,
  a.cd_serie ,
  a.cd_cliente ,
  a.tp_negocio ,
  a.vl_taxcor ,
  a.vl_taxcor_bro ,
  a.in_tipo_cor
ORDER BY a.dt_negocio ,
  a.cd_cliente ,
  a.cd_commod ,
  a.cd_mercad ,
  a.cd_serie ,
  a.tp_negocio

Notice that there is no field named ROWID


But in the oracle database log we have this instruction executed by the BPA.exe application:

SELECT A.CD_COMMOD          AS MERCADORIA ,
  A.CD_MERCAD               AS MERCADO ,
  A.CD_SERIE                AS VENCIMENTO ,
  SUM(ABS(A.QT_QTDESP))     AS QUANTIDADE ,
  A.TP_NEGOCIO              AS TIPO ,
  SUM(ABS(A.VL_CORNEG_BRO)) AS REPASSE,
  A.ROWID, --ghost field
  C.ROWID --ghost field
FROM VMFREPCOR_H A ,
  TSCCLIBMF C
WHERE A.DT_DATMOV      >= TO_DATE('01/07/2011', 'dd/mm/yyyy')
AND A.DT_DATMOV        <= TO_DATE('31/07/2011', 'dd/mm/yyyy')
AND A.CD_ORIGEM         = 147
AND A.CD_COMMOD         = 'DDI'
AND C.CODCLI            = A.CD_CLIENTE
AND C.CD_CLIENTE_LIQFIN = 7983
GROUP BY A.DT_NEGOCIO ,
  A.CD_CORRESP ,
  A.CD_COMMOD ,
  A.CD_MERCAD ,
  A.CD_SERIE ,
  A.CD_CLIENTE ,
  A.TP_NEGOCIO ,
  A.VL_TAXCOR ,
  A.VL_TAXCOR_BRO ,
  A.IN_TIPO_COR
ORDER BY A.DT_NEGOCIO ,
  A.CD_CLIENTE ,
  A.CD_COMMOD ,
  A.CD_MERCAD ,
  A.CD_SERIE ,
  A.TP_NEGOCIO

Oracle return this error:

=> ORA-01446: cannot
SELECT ROWID FROM, OR sample, a VIEW
WITH DISTINCT, GROUP BY, etc.

This situation does not cause problems in the workflow, but causes serious problems in the database.

Why Automate adds these fields for any query?

Hi Fabio,

I'm having the developers look into this one. Could you copy your SQL query step to the clipboard and paste it into a reply after pressing the Attach Code button?

This happens with all commands "SQL Query".

Hi Fabio,

I have asked the development team about this issue and will follow up with you shortly.

Hi Fabio,

After discussing this with the developers, we're not certain this issue is being cause by AutoMate. We do not use the term ROWID in the source code at all, and we do not have any routines which modify the queries.
This points to possibilities such as database drivers, connection strings, or configurations on the database server.

I was not able to see your connection string, as you seem to have used an existing session in a previous step prior to executing the query. Can you determine which database driver you are using, and what the connection string is? Would you be able to have your DBA validate the server configuration? If you copy the query from your step and paste it into your Oracle management tools, does the query behave the same as with AutoMate?
