Hi All,

We have our product which is running perfectly fine on Oralce 9i. We are trying to upgrade the product to 10g. Once the database is upgraded and after the data is imported, we are facing few issues with CLOB data type values. We are using SQLGetData function to fetch data from these CLOB datatypes. The data is getting truncated when retriving. Oracle says, it is an issue with ODBC driver which was released with 10g Relase 1. I tried to upgrade the ODBC driver. This requires a newer version of Universal installer. I couldn't find it anywhere. I tried to upgrade it Oracle 10g Release 2. Still I am facing the same issue. The data stored in CLOB datatype is xml data. So after retriving the truncated data, XML parser is not able to parse the data.

Has anyone faced anything like this. your inputs will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

I was told CLOB datatype was not supported in the exp/imp utility. Is Oracle saying it is now?

I think it does. The reason why I am saying this is, it works fine after importing in SQL plus and when using ADO in VB. When you retrieve the values in SQL plus it gives you the correct result. Similarly, when you are using ADO in VB to fetch the data, the result is correct. So I guess the problem might be with SQL native interface methods(SQLGetData) or ODBC driver.

I just tried by updating Oracle 10g Release 1 with latest patch available. But still I am facing the same issue.

Let me know your views,
Thanks.

Hi,

I was wondering whether I am the only one facing this issue.
I have created a poll which would help me in identifying whether there is any issues with the way we are struturing our import/export. I would encourge you to please vote in the poll.

Thanks,
Vikram.

Hello I am here facing the same problem Mad ... where My SQLGetData function is not working as expected and this is happening when we have non-English char in the CLOB Column.

My data is always getting truncated excatly at 500 length.
ODBC is replacing 500th char by some DOT or char in the memory.
and then put rest of the data in the buffer.

We have tried so many things like fetching data in chunks or fetching it in one go... it dosent make any difference it is giving same result.
when I reverted back CLOB to LONG for perticular column,SQLGetData is working fine.

So the conclusion is : SQLGetData is not working properly with CLOB Datatype.

for more discussion on this ...please mail me on akshay.r.deshmukh@gmail.com
Mad
Regards
Akshay
