ora-06553 pls-306 wrong number or types of arguments in call to 'ogc_x'

I´m trying a query in oracle 10g. It goes like this:

SELECT
  *
FROM
  h2h_reg reg,
  h2h_cat_estatus est
WHERE
  reg.FECH_APLICACION = SYSDATE
AND REG.ID_EST        = EST.ID_ESTATUS
AND est.tipo_estatus  = "X";

So it runs smootly, but when I try it adding a group by:

SELECT
  reg.id_arch,
  reg.id_prod
FROM
  h2h_reg reg,
  h2h_cat_estatus est
WHERE
  reg.FECH_APLICACION = SYSDATE
AND reg.id_est        = est.id_estatus
AND EST.TIPO_ESTATUS  = "X"
GROUP BY
  reg.id_arch,
  reg.id_prod;

I get the next message:

ora-06553 pls-306 wrong number or types of arguments in call to 'ogc_x'

Does anyone knows what´s wrong in my query?

Solution

  • you've used double quotes on "X".

    this should be 'X'.

    the X object is an function in the MDSYS schema, "ogc_x", so when you say est.tipo_estatus = "X" instead of the correct est.tipo_estatus = 'X' it gets translated (as "" is as an identifier so "X" is the same as just typing X) to est.tipo_estatus = mdsys.ogc_x and of course fails.
