The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

ORA-06553: PLS-306 Error when Calling a Stored Procedure with sys_refcursor

Asked by CDL2 in PL / SQL, Oracle 10.x

Tags: Oracle 10gR2, ORA-06553, PLS-306, Stored Procedure, sys_refcursor

I am trying to build a stored procedure where the output will become the datasource for Crystal Reports.  I was trying to follow guidance provided in the article "Using Ref Cursors To Return Recordsets" http://www.oracle-base.com/articles/misc/UsingRefCursorsToReturnRecordsets.php, which was referenced on another post in EE.

Per the instructions I skipped step one (create the package) since I am using Oracle 10gR2.  I used sys_refcursor, which is supposedly already defined.

I get a clean compile, but when I try to call the procedure (through TOAD) I get the error "ORA-06553: PLS-306: wrong number or types of arguments in call to 'RPT730'".  I don't know if it makes a difference, but testapp730 in the FROM-clause is a view, not a table.

Any suggestions would be appreciate.
