    <p>I work with Oracle 11g.<br> I have one table: </p> <pre><code>create table test (one number(2), two number(2)); </code></pre> <p>There are 2 rows: </p> <pre><code>insert into test (one, two) values (1, 1); insert into test (one, two) values (2, null); commit; </code></pre> <p>Now I create an exceptions table:</p> <pre><code>create table exceptions(row_id rowid, owner varchar2(30), table_name varchar2(30), constraint varchar2(30)); </code></pre> <p>Now I want to create the primary key for test: </p> <pre><code>alter table test add constraint test_pk primary key (one, two) exceptions into exceptions; </code></pre> <p>Of course I get the following error: ORA-01449</p> <p>But the row that caused the exception is not in the exception table?</p> <p>Can anybody help me. Thanks in advance</p> <p>Wolfgang</p>

    1. CObash Oracle threads are apparently a quick way to get points...how is this +2 with not a single comment? The error you get is telling you the primary key fields cannot contain nulls. It doesn't mean Oracle exceptions don't work. Look at your table, do you see any contraints?

    2. CO@tbone, this isn't about exception handling. This is about the "exceptions into" clause. What the OP is describing is exactly the case, and is a legitimate question as the documentation does not tell you this information. The problem is you can't create the constraint AND report exceptions in one step. How is this "bashing" Oracle?

    3. CO@DCookie I understand its about the "exceptions into" clause, but the title is "oracle exceptions do not work". Its not an Oracle issue (how can the constraint log exceptions when it cannot even be created, you must either create it first before loading nulls or do as you suggest as create it disabled). Once created, it can do its job. I just find it funny that I ran into several "why does Oracle suck" threads that immediately gain points based on, well, I don't know. For example,see http://stackoverflow.com/questions/11191299/why-is-there-a-maximum-length-for-stored-procedure-names.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
