ORA-01008 not all variables bound They are bound

Question

I have come across an Oracle problem for which I have so far been unable to find the cause  The query below works in Oracle SQL developer  but when running in  NET it throws      ORA-01008  not all variables bound   I ve tried    Changing the Oracle data type for lot priority  Varchar2 or int32   Changing the  NET data type for lot priority  string or int   One bind variable name is used twice in the query  This is not a problem in my other queries that use the same bound variable in more than one location  but just to be sure I tried making the second instance its own variable with a different  name and binding it separately  Several different ways of binding the variables  see commented code  also others   Moving the bindByName   call around  Replacing each bound variable with a literal  I ve had two separate variables cause the problem   lot pri and  lot priprc   There were some minor changes I can t remember between the two  Changing to literals made the query work  but they do need to work with binding    Query and code follow  Variable names have been changed to protect the innocent   SELECT rf myrow floworder  rf stage  rf prss  rf pin instnum  rf prid  r history

The solution in my situation was similar answer to Charles Burns  and the problem was related to SQL code comments     I was building  or updating  rather  an already-functioning SSRS report with Oracle datasource   I added some more parameters to the report  tested it in Visual Studio  it works great  so I deployed it to the report server  and then when the report is executed the report on the server I got the error message       ORA-01008  not all variables bound    I tried quite a few different things  TNSNames ora file installed on the server  Removed single line comments  Validate dataset query mapping    What it came down to was I had to remove a comment block directly after the WHERE keyword   The error message was resolved after moving the comment block after the WHERE CLAUSE conditions   I have other comments in the code also   It was just the one after the WHERE keyword causing the error    SQL with error   ORA-01008  not all variables bound      WHERE        OHH SHIP DATE BETWEEN TO DATE  10 1 2018    MM DD YYYY   AND TO DATE  10 31 2018    MM DD YYYY       AND OHH STATUS CODE lt  gt  DL      AND OHH BILL COMP CODE 100     AND OHH MASTER ORDER NBR IS NULL         OHH SHIP DATE BETWEEN  paramStartDate AND  paramEndDate     AND OHH STATUS CODE lt  gt  DL      AND OHH BILL COMP CODE IN   paramCompany      AND LOAD DEPART FROM WHSE CODE IN   paramWarehouse       AND OHH MASTER ORDER NBR IS NULL     AND LOAD CLASS CODE IN   paramClassCode       AND CUST CUST CODE     -     CUST CUST SHIPTO CODE IN   paramShipto     SQL executes successfully on the report server     WHERE     OHH SHIP DATE BETWEEN  paramStartDate AND  paramEndDate     AND OHH STATUS CODE lt  gt  DL      AND OHH BILL COMP CODE IN   paramCompany      AND LOAD DEPART FROM WHSE CODE IN   paramWarehouse       AND OHH MASTER ORDER NBR IS NULL     AND LOAD CLASS CODE IN   paramClassCode       AND CUST CUST CODE     -     CUST CUST SHIPTO CODE IN   paramShipto            OHH SHIP DATE BETWEEN TO DATE  10 1 2018    MM DD YYYY   AND TO DATE  10 31 2018    MM DD YYYY       AND OHH STATUS CODE lt  gt  DL      AND OHH BILL COMP CODE 100     AND OHH MASTER ORDER NBR IS NULL      Here is what the dataset parameter mapping screen looks like

I know this is an old question  but it hasn t been correctly addressed  so I m answering it for others who may run into this problem   By default Oracle s ODP net binds variables by position  and treats each position as a new variable    Treating each copy as a different variable and setting it s value multiple times is a  workaround and a pain  as furman87 mentioned  and could lead to bugs  if you are trying to rewrite the query and move things around   The correct way is to set the BindByName property of OracleCommand to true as below   var cmd   new OracleCommand cmdtxt  conn   cmd BindByName   true    You could also create a new class to encapsulate OracleCommand setting the BindByName to true on instantiation  so you don t have to set the value each time  This is discussed in this post

You have two references to the  lot priprc binding variable -- while it should require you to only set the variable s value once and bind it in both places  I ve had problems where this didn t work and had to treat each copy as a different variable   A pain  but it worked

On Charles  comment problem  to make things worse  let   p1    TRIALDEV    via a Command Parameter  then execute  select T table name as NAME  COALESCE C comments         as DESCRIPTION from all all tables T Inner Join all tab comments C on T owner   C owner and T table name   C table name where Upper T owner   p1 order by T table name  558 line s  affected  Processing time  00 00 00 6535711   and when changing the literal string from     to ---  select T table name as NAME  COALESCE C comments   ---   as DESCRIPTION     from   same-as-above      ORA-01008  not all variables bound   Both statements execute fine in SQL Developer  The shortened code               Using con   New OracleConnection cs                  con Open                   Using cmd   con CreateCommand                       cmd CommandText   cmdText                     cmd Parameters Add pn  OracleDbType NVarchar2  250  Value   p                     Dim tbl   New DataTable                     Dim da   New OracleDataAdapter cmd                      da Fill tbl                      Return tbl                 End Using             End Using   using Oracle ManagedDataAccess dll Version 4 121 2 0 with the default settings in VS2015 on the  Net 4 61 platform   So somewhere in the call chain  there might be a parser that is a bit too aggressively looking for one-line-comments started by -- in the commandText  But even if this would be true  the error message  not all variables bound  is at least misleading

I d a similar problem in a legacy application  but de  --  was string parameter   Ex     Dim cmd As New OracleCommand  INSERT INTO USER  name  address  photo  VALUES   User1    --    photo    oracleConnection  Dim fs As IO FileStream   New IO FileStream  c  img jpg   IO FileMode Open  Dim br As New IO BinaryReader fs  cmd Parameters Add New OracleParameter  photo   OracleDbType Blob   Value   br ReadBytes fs Length  cmd ExecuteNonQuery    here throws ORA-01008   Changing address parameter value  --  to  00  or other thing  works

I found how to run the query without error  but I hesitate to call it a  solution  without really understanding the underlying cause   This more closely resembles the beginning of my actual query   -- Comment -- More comment SELECT rf flowrow  rf stage  rf process  rf instr instnum  rf procedure id  rtd history runtime  rtd history waittime FROM       -- Comment at beginning of subquery     -- These two comment lines are the problem     SELECT sub2 flowrow  sub2 stage  sub2 process  sub2 instr  sub2 pid     FROM         The second set of comments above  at the beginning of the subquery  were the problem  When removed  the query executes  Other comments are fine  This is not a matter of some rogue or missing newline causing the following line to be commented  because the following line is a SELECT  A missing select would yield a different error than  not all variables bound    I asked around and found one co-worker who has run into this -- comments causing query failures -- several times  Does anyone know how this can be the cause  It is my understanding that the very first thing a DBMS would do with comments is see if they contain hints  and if not  remove them during parsing  How can an ordinary comment containing no unusual characters  just letters and a period  cause an error  Bizarre
