I am attempting to update a table in an Oracle database with data from an
application developed in-house using PH 8.20.D. The Oracle database resides
on a Windows 2000 server and PowerHouse is running on OpenVMS 7.2-1. When I
developed the program to update the Oracle test database, everything worked
fine. Then, when I tried to place the PowerHouse program (QTP) into
production, I encountered constraint errors. I checked the table
description with Qhsow and found a difference - see "Null Values Allowed" in
table header below:
2002/08/29 TEST_MAXIMO Page 1
R E C O R D R E P O R T
For DICTIONARY: PROD_USER_C:[GBN]TEST_MAXIMO.PDC
Record: MAXIMO.CHARTOFACCOUNTS
of Database: TMAX
Organization: RELATIONAL
Null Values Allowed:Yes
Type: ORACLE
Hold Cursor: Unspecified
Open: ORACLE@MAXIMO@TESTMAX/xxxxxxx
Record Size: 913 Bytes
2002/08/29 PROD_MAXIMO Page 1
R E C O R D R E P O R T
For DICTIONARY: PROD_USER_C:[GBN]PROD_MAXIMO.PDC
Record: MAXIMO.CHARTOFACCOUNTS
of Database: AMAX
Organization: RELATIONAL
Null Values Allowed:No
Type: ORACLE
Hold Cursor: Unspecified
Open: ORACLE@MAXIMO@ADMINMAX/xxxxxxx
Record Size: 913 Bytes
The test database and the production database are on two servers, but both
are running are running Windows 2000 v 5.0.2195 SP 2. The Oracle DBA showed
me that both databases are identical in their description. He added that
Oracle has no concept of placing a "Not Null" constraint on an entire table.
Some subtle difference must exist somewhere that makes PowerHouse think the
entire table has a not null constraint on it. Does anyone have an answer.
