SemanticException while execute sql query statement with chinese on HUE web ui - hue

when I use hive sql with chinese comment to create table on the web(HUE), it pops up 'ascii codec can't encode characters in position', then I tried to chang python default encod into utf8 to fix it, but the exception change into semantic exception.
I double check on hive with beeline connection, it can execute ddl,dql with chinese successfully, such as
'select *, 'chinese中文' as test from tb_name',
'create table tb_name (id string comment 'chinese中文') comment 'chinese中文' row format ....'
'desc formatted tb_name'.
I also change corresponding column with utf8 on desktop_document2 which in the hue's metastore to make shure chinese can show on the ui.
till now I gussing encoding get worng between typing on ui and execut stage. need help, thank you so much.
btw, hue is 4.10 and hive is 2.3.7. same problem when query mysql table, but I added jdbc dialect '?characterEncoding=UTF-8' to fix it. hope it can provide inspiration.

Is there any way to get the syntax of an SQL statement when using SQLPlus?

I have an exam using SQLPlus and sometimes I don't remember the exact syntax of SQL statements, so I was wondering if there is any way to get some nice inline help from inside SQLPlus.
For instance, say I forgot how to use INSERT INTO, and I want some reminder like this:
INSERT INTO table-name (column-names)
VALUES (values)
Is this possible?
I tried HELP command but none of that seems to suits my needs.
I Googled it with no success.
No. SQL is a standardized language (at least ANSI SQL) and SQLPlus "just" uses that syntax, so it's not covered by internal help. Internal help lists only SQLPlus specific commands (ex. SET, CONNECT, SPOOL).
It is possible to workaround that in some way, but very limited. You can call dbms_metadata.get_ddl function for some existing object. Some of those DDLs could have statements you are intrested in. For example - you'd like to see select statement - then you could call dbms_metadata.get_ddl for some existing view:
select dbms_metadata.get_ddl('VIEW', 'USER_TABLES', 'SYS')
from dual;
Be aware - it works only for Oracle 11G and lower, in the newest one SYS objects are not accessible in that way (I'm not sure about Oracle 12.1).
The more interesting are tiggers, procedures, functions, and packages. You cannot use dbms_metadata to get DDLs of packages owned by SYS, but maybe you can connect to some sample schemas like HR (Human Resources), AD (Academic), SH (Sales History).
In HR schema there is stored procedure ADD_JOB_HISTORY, which has inside insert statement, so it looks like that:
select dbms_metadata.get_ddl('PROCEDURE', 'ADD_JOB_HISTORY')
from dual;
CREATE OR REPLACE EDITIONABLE PROCEDURE "HR"."ADD_JOB_HISTORY"
( p_emp_id job_history.employee_id%type
, p_start_date job_history.start_date%type
, p_end_date job_history.end_date%type
, p_job_id job_history.job_id%type
, p_department_id job_history.department_id%type
)
IS
BEGIN
INSERT INTO job_history (employee_id, start_date, end_date,
job_id, department_id)
VALUES(p_emp_id, p_start_date, p_end_date, p_job_id, p_department_id);
END add_job_history;
There are better ways and better tools to achieve your goal - see below.
Are you allowed to use SQL Developer instead of SQLPlus? SQL Developer has nice feature to drag-and-drop table icon into worksheet, then you will be nicely prompted to choose what kind of example statement you are looking for (SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE etc.) - after choosing one you will get sample statement.
But the best way is just open in browser Database SQL Language Reference:

FireDAC - Show SQL after Macro Expantion

I am trying to use Macros in FireDAC to Preprocess my SQL Queries. I have a TADQuery object on a Data Module with the SQL set to something like:
Select * from MyTable
join OtherTable on MyTable.Key = OtherTable.Key
&Where
Then in my code I do this:
WhereClause = 'stuff based on my form';
Query.MacroByName('Where').AsRaw := WhereClause;
Query.Open;
This has worked great for complicated queries because it lets me make sure my fields and join conditions are correct using the SQL Property editor.
My problem is when the SQL statements ends up invalid because of my where clause. Is there any way to see the SQL after pre-processing that is going to be executed? Right now I am catching the FireDac errors and showing the SQL that is on EADDBEngineException object. However that is still showing my original SQL with the macros. If I can't get to it after the error happens is there anyway to force the Macro replacement to take place so I can look at the SQL in the debugger to help me see what is wrong.
If it matters I am connecting to a MS Access database with the goal of moving to SQL Server in the near future.
Apart from using Text property, to monitor what SQL is actually going to the database engine, consider using the "FDMonitor" FireDAC utility. According to the DokWiki pages (below):
drop a TFDMoniRemoteClientLink component on your form,
Set its Tracing property to True,
Add the MonitorBy=Xxx connection definition parameter to your existing FDConnection component. You can do this in the IDE object inspector, by selecting your FDConnection component, expanding the Params property, and setting MonitorBy to mbRemote.
Note that the TFDMoniXxxxClientLink should come before TFDConnection in the data module or form creation order, so adjust this by right clicking on the form or data module, then Creation Order, and moving the TFDMoni.. component above the FDConnection.
Also, it's helpful in the options of the TFDMoniXxxxClientLink, to disable most of the events being recorded, otherwise all the data returned is also shown in the FireDAC monitor. Expand the EventKinds property, and turn all the event kinds off, except for perhaps ekConnConnect, ekConnPrepare, and ekCmdExecute.
Then open the FireDAC Monitor from the IDE, (Tools > FireDAC Monitor). Start your app only once the monitor is running. Double click on a trace event (in the Trace Output tab), and you will see the actual SQL sent to the database in the bottom pane.
It also seems likely that adding the EventType of ekConnPrepare as mentioned above, would show you when the query's Prepare is called, but I haven't played enough with it say for sure.
Please see the following pages on the DocWiki for more information:
Overview: FDMonitor
How to: Tracing and Monitoring (FireDAC)
Other FireDAC utilities: Utilities (FireDAC)
(Just to remove this question from list of unanswered questions)
From comments:
Well, I've roughly checked what's happening there and I'm still not
sure if calling Prepare (which is useless for you as I get) is the
minimal requirement to trigger that preprocessing. Though, the
preprocessed SQL, the one which is sent to the DBMS you can access
through the Text property (quite uncommon name for such property). – TLama Feb

Insert char like 'Š' in MySQL with PHP

i have this query:
insert into orders (customers_id, customers_name) values ('51064', 'Šample Šample')
If i execute this query from PHP, my database record become
[51604, '?ample ?ample'] (if executed with MySQLi) or
[51604, 'Šample Šample'] (with mysql_query)
I also noticed that if i use the value from $_GET
insert into orders (customers_id, customers_name) values ('51064', {$_GET['name']})
it becomes [51064, 'Åample Åample']
BUT if i insert manually the query using software like 'Navicat' it saves the query with the correct character (so i think that the charset is the right one)
I need to save the character Š (and many others) in the right way from PHP.
Set the charset to be used when sending data back and forth from the database server.
$mysqli->set_charset("utf8")
This is preferred over
// Will not affect $mysqli->real_escape_string();
$mysqli->query("SET NAMES utf8");
See http://www.php.net/manual/en/mysqli.set-charset.php and http://www.php.net/manual/en/mysqlinfo.concepts.charset.php
set Mysql encoding before using the DB.
mysql_query("SET NAMES 'utf8'");
OR use the utf8 utf8_encode() utf8_decode() functions

Complex T-SQL script executed via TADOQuery is firing "Multiple-step OLE DB operation generated errors."

I have a very large block of SQL that I am trying to execute inside of Delphi, against a Microsoft SQL Database. I am getting this:
Multiple-step OLE DB operation generated errors.
Check each OLE DB status value, if available. No work was done.
The script has multiple sql IF statements followed by BEGIN and END blocks with invocations of stored procedures, declaration of variables, and EXEC inside that. Finally it returns some of the variable values by SELECT #Variable1 AsName1,#Variable2 AsName2....
The above multi-step error is coming in as an OLEException from ADO, not from the Delphi code, and happens after all the SQL exec-stored-procedure have occurred, and therefore I suspect it's firing this OLE exception when it reaches the final stage which SELECT #Variable1 AsName1,... to get back a few variable values for my program to see them.
I know about this retired/deprecated MS KB article, and this is unfortunately not my actual issue:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/269495
In short that KB article says to fix a registry key and remove "Persist Security Info" from the connection string. That's not my problem. I'm asking this question because I found the answer already and I think that someone else who gets stuck here might not want to waste several hours finding potential issues when there are several that I have found after searching for solutions for several hours. Anyone who wants to add another answer with different options, is fine, and I'll select yours if it's reproducible, and if necessary I'll turn this one into a Community Wiki because there could be a dozen obscure causes for this "ADO recordset is in a bad mood and is unhappy with your T-SQL" exception.
I have found several potential causes that are listed in various sources of documentation. The original KB article in the question suggests removing the 'Persist Security Info' from my ADO connection string, however in a standalone test in an application with just a TADOConnection and a single TADOQuery, the presence or absence of Persist Security Info had no effect, nor did explicitly setting it True or False.
What DID fix it was removing this CursorType declaration:
CursorType=ctKeyset
What I have learned is that bidirectional ADO datasets are fine for SELECT * FROM TABLE in ADO but are not so fine for complex SQL scripts.
Potential source of this error is updating char field with large value.
Example: Form has edit box with max length property set to 20 characters and Oracle database table has field defined as char(10).
Updating with 10 characters (or less) will work fine while updating with more then 10 characters will cause 'Multiple step...' error on ADOQuerry.UpdateBatch().
You also have to know that CHAR will allways have 20 characters. Consider Trimming value in edit box. CHAR behaves different than VARCHAR2 type.
If you have a query with parameter ,check the number of parameters in the query is matched with script...!

Recover Redmine data from production log

I had a project in Redmine with more than 600 issues. I moved all the issues to a different project. I had no idea that the move deletes all the data for the custom fields!
So all the custom field values are now lost. I did not backup the database before this action as I really did not think that I was going to do any harm by moving issues as moving is a native function in the UI.
What I noticed is though that the production.log contains events for all creation and updates. All my 600 issues are in order in the production log. How can I use these log statements to repeat the actions? If I can import all the log actions, I can migrate the custom fields that it writes to the original Redmine instance and restore my values.
Entries look like this:

I am really hoping that there is a way, any help will be greatly appreciated
You could use a decent text editor and/or spreadsheet application and do a massive find and replace and construct a series of UPDATE SQL commands and run them directly on the database (TEST FIRST!!)
Extract from log
Remove unnessary information
Copy into spreadsheet
Split text into columns
Add in columns with necessary SQL commands "UPDATE SET etc" copy into all rows of this column etc.
Join columns to make one text command per row
Export joined data to a text file
Run against test database as sql
If all goes well run against production database as sql
The log entry, following "Parameters:", looks like a regular Ruby hash definition. I'd parse that out and eval it back into a hash variable.
From there you will need to peel off elements and insert them into a database. I'd do that using Sequel, but use what works for you.
Talk to the RedMine support people and get the schema for their tables so you can figure out what data goes where and the database driver needed.
