i keep getting the following errror, 'ORA-01008: not all variables bound', im guessign its
all based on my pPostcode param but im not sure.
I am a beginner the the whole PLSQL secne and any help would be greatly apriciated
here is my procedure:
procedure all_customer_postcode(pPostcode in carer.postcode%type
,pReport out SYS_REFCURSOR) is
begin
open pReport for
select c.id, c.forename, c.surname,c.address_1,c.address_2,
c.address_3,c.address_4, c.postcode, c.date_of_birth, cf.id
from customer c, customer_friend cf,customer_friend_for cff
where c.id = cff.customer_id AND cff.id = cff.customer_friend_id
AND c.postcode = pPostcode;
end;
Thanks Jon
I have amended your procedure slight, as the WHERE clause you published didn't make sense to me...
SQL> create or replace procedure all_customer_postcode
2 (pPostcode in customer.postcode%type
3 ,pReport out SYS_REFCURSOR) is
4 begin
5 open pReport for
6 select c.id
7 , c.forename
8 , c.surname
9 ,c.address_1
10 ,c.address_2
11 ,c.postcode
12 , c.date_of_birth
13 , cf.id as cf_id
14 from customer c
15 , customer_friend cf
16 ,customer_friend_for cff
17 where c.id = cff.customer_id
18 AND cf.id = cff.customer_friend_id
19 AND c.postcode = pPostcode;
20 end;

Calling it in SQL*Plus with variables works ...
SQL> var rc refcursor
SQL> var pc varchar2(8)
SQL> exec :pc := 'ML1 4KJ'
PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.
SQL> exec all_customer_postcode(:pc, :rc)

So, how can we get it to hurl an ORA-1008? By turning the query into a string and changing the way the parameter is declared...
SQL> create or replace procedure all_customer_postcode
2 (pPostcode in customer.postcode%type
3 ,pReport out SYS_REFCURSOR) is
4 begin
5 open pReport for
6 'select c.id
7 , c.forename
8 , c.surname
9 ,c.address_1
10 ,c.address_2
11 ,c.postcode
12 , c.date_of_birth
13 , cf.id as cf_id
14 from customer c
15 , customer_friend cf
16 ,customer_friend_for cff
17 where c.id = cff.customer_id
18 AND cf.id = cff.customer_friend_id
19 AND c.postcode = :pPostcode';
20 end;
21 /
Procedure created.
SQL> exec all_customer_postcode(:pc, :rc)
BEGIN all_customer_postcode(:pc, :rc); END;

ERROR at line 1:
ORA-01008: not all variables bound
ORA-06512: at "APC.ALL_CUSTOMER_POSTCODE", line 5

so let's fix that ...
SQL> create or replace procedure all_customer_postcode
2 (pPostcode in customer.postcode%type
3 ,pReport out SYS_REFCURSOR) is
4 begin
5 open pReport for
6 'select c.id
7 , c.forename
8 , c.surname
9 ,c.address_1
10 ,c.address_2
11 ,c.postcode
12 , c.date_of_birth
13 , cf.id as cf_id
14 from customer c
15 , customer_friend cf
16 ,customer_friend_for cff
17 where c.id = cff.customer_id
18 AND cf.id = cff.customer_friend_id
19 AND c.postcode = :pPostcode' using pPostcode;
20 end;
21 /
Procedure created.
SQL> exec all_customer_postcode(:pc, :rc)

So I have managed to recreate an ORA-1008; I'm not sure whether it matches your ORA-1008 situation. Your intuition is right, it is something to do with how the value in pPostcode
is passed to the query. It is just that the code you posted actually does it correctly and so doesn't fail.
