Description

In QGIS 2.12 when using DBManager plugin with Oracle tables this bug occurs. I ran a simple SQL query like SELECT * FROM ilceler it returned the results succesfully. And than i clicked Load as new layer button to see results in QGIS canvas it gave error. The error says the reason is: ORA-00933: SQL command not properly ended. Also it gives the SQL query: SELECT * FROM (select * from ilceler
) AS "_subQuery__0" LIMIT 0
. I only entered SELECT * FROM ilceler. DBManager changed the original query so it throws error.

It's a known issue.

In the TODO list of the oracle's db_manager plugin, we can find :

  • SQL Window - Can't retrieve column: dlg_sql_window.py launch an invalid request for Oracle (no LIMIT operator in Oracle). Should patch dlg_sql_window.py to use a connector method to grab columns.

Please see PR 2478 for a simple solution (replacing LIMIT 0 with WHERE 0=1) of this issue, that is actually in the won't fix section of the mentioned TODO.

57f5fba does not fixed it.

It seems that the 'AS' is not supported in Oracle. Some one can confirm it ?

#7 Updated by René-Luc ReLuc over 8 years ago

Oracle does not support AS for aliases table name. It seems that in PostgreSQL and SQLite, it's not mandatory.
I proposed to remove it. Some objection ?

#8 Updated by Jukka Rahkonen over 8 years ago

Works for me from Oracle Database 12c Enterprise Edition Release 12.1.0.2.0 - 64bit Production:

SELECT attribute AS test FROM test_table;

This diagram shows also AS in quite many places http://docs.oracle.com/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14200/statements_10002.htm.

Could you show example SQL where AS is not supported?

#9 Updated by René-Luc ReLuc over 8 years ago

It seems to not worked for table name aliases.

This does not work:

SELECT * FROM (select * from ilceler) AS "_subQuery__0".

This works:

SELECT * FROM (select * from ilceler) "_subQuery__0".

In the documentation, the "AS" seems to be not used for table aliases (search for t_alias in http://docs.oracle.com/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14200/statements_10002.htm).
