Oracle error -913
ORACLE ERROR = ORA-00913: too many values
ORA-00913: too many values
Steps to Reproduce
Run a campaign.
Root Cause
Campaign was failing while inserting data ‘0,000’ for the column ‘comm_cost’ into the CAMP_COMM_OUT_DET table.
Oracle is treating the value as two different values due to Character set related parameter values mismatch, hence INSERT is failing.
Resolution
Environment parameter settings regarding Character set are suggested to be changed as follows:
- Set VenvNLSLang parameter in Vantage.init to “AMERICAN_AMERICA.WE8MSWIN1252”
- In .profile add “export NLS_NUMERIC_CHARACTERS='.,' ”
Currently there is no ORA-00913 issue reported in executing the particular campaign. Therefore, confirmed closure.
