Porting file from MySQL to Oracle Express 10g - mysql

after starting (and almost finishing) a database project for school, I found out I was supposed to use Oracle Express instead of MySQL. So when I brought in the code I had written from mysql to oracle, everything stopped working. I'm not too familiar with oracle databases but I assumed their syntax is quite simaler to MySqls.
Are there any structures in this file that are different in oracle DBs?
anything you guys can see would help. Thanks!

In Oracle, privileged users (such as SYS) can create other users. That would look like this:
SQL> connect sys/pwd as sysdba
Connected.
SQL> select tablespace_name from user_tablespaces;
TABLESPACE_NAME
------------------------------
SYSTEM
SYSAUX
UNDOTBS1
TEMP
USERS
SQL> create user so_test identified by test
2 default tablespace users
3 temporary tablespace temp
4 quota unlimited on users;
User created.
SQL> grant create session, create table, create view to so_test;
Grant succeeded.
Now, connect as newly created user and run code (I fixed); later I'll post code you can reuse. There's no drop if exists in Oracle, so I'm just dropping those tables (paying attention to FK constraints!) and ignoring dropping errors.
Other errors include:
use varchar2, not varchar (that's not exactly an error, but - Oracle recommends it)
use single quotes for strings, not double quotes
either specify date format mask (such as to_date('2015/03/21', 'yyyy/mm/dd')) or use date literal (e.g. date '2015-03-21') or alter session and specify desired format
terminate all commands with semi-colon
insert into should be used for each row separately, unless you use insert all or insert into ... select ... from
OK, here we go:
SQL> connect so_test/test
Connected.

I'm developing a School/University software and I got stucked in this situation:

The pair(sclass_id, subj_id) must be UNIQUE.
prof_id might be NULL.

Mr. Ward shouldn't be able to teach English to Tenth Grade, because this combination is not present in table ProfessorsSubject.
To avoid inconsitences in a database level, how to make sure the pair (prof_id, subj_id) in Table A respects what is in "SubjectOfProfessor" table before insert?
1.1) Is it necessary to use Procedures? Triggers ?
1.2) Is it possible to make this just using fields proprieties and/or constraints ?
What if I wanted to do this using Django ORM in a databased level ?
Reference: migrations.RunSQL('ALTER TABLE app_event ADD CONSTRAINT chronology CHECK (start_date > end_date);
You can use a combined foreign key in the table A as you did with the primary key in the table ProfessorsSubject. A corresponding index on the referenced table is required which actually is fulfilled by its primary key already.
FOREIGN KEY (subj_id, prof_id) REFERENCES ProfessorsSubject (subj_id, prof_id)

on delete table with foreign key delete also the referenced table

There is a way to delete the referenced record when I delete the row with the foreign key?
This is my db's tables
and I want delete the 3 record referenced of the table "righe" when I delete the record in table "cartelle"
Just add your reference in the other direction, like this:
Fiddle
-- cartelle (folder)
CREATE TABLE folders ( folder_id int primary key );
-- righe (rows, tied to a folder)
CREATE TABLE xrows (
row_id int primary key
, folder_id int
, FOREIGN KEY (folder_id) REFERENCES folders (folder_id) ON DELETE CASCADE
);
INSERT INTO folders VALUES (1), (2), (3);
INSERT INTO xrows VALUES
(1, 1)
, (2, 1)
, (3, 1)
, (4, 2)
, (5, 3)
, (6, 2)
;
row_id
folder_id
1
1
2
1
3
1
4
2
5
3
6
2
Now when we delete a folder, the corresponding rows will be deleted.
DELETE FROM folders WHERE folder_id = 1;
SELECT * FROM xrows;
The result:
row_id
folder_id
4
2
5
3
6
2

Unique constraints across a many to many relationship table

Is there any way to add a constraint to ensure that an entry of X in one column can then only allow an entry of Y in another column?
Say I have two tables, stripped down to minimal columns, tbl_1 has a pk. tbl_2 has 2 columns - a pk and a text string.
These tables are joined by a 3rd relationship table because they're many to many and it uses pk from tbl1 and tbl2.
t1_pk t2_pk | t2_str t1fk | t2fk
x 1 AAA x 1
y 2 BBB x 2
z 3 AAA y 3
4 BBB y 4
z 1
z 2
All entries above are allowed, but now I'm trying to figure out how I can constrict the relationship table so that the string attached to t2_pk can only tie in to the t1_pk ONCE. E.g. in the 3rd table:
t1fk | t2fk
x 3
would not be allowed because x-1 exists and both 1 and 3 have the string AAA attached. One way I can think without making 3 more tables and going round in circles, is to move the string to the relationship table and add a constraint so if the t2fk number exists in the table already it'll only allow the number again if accompanied by the same string.
is there a background process for this I can declare like adding a unique constraint, or would it simply need to be imposed by a stored procedure?
Either you add a t2_str column to your third table that contains the relations or you create a new table for this purpose. Here an example how to implement the new table tab_constr.
drop table if exists tab_constr;
drop table if exists tab_rel;
drop table if exists tab_1;
drop table if exists tab_2;
CREATE TABLE tab_1 (
t1_pk varchar(5),
PRIMARY KEY (t1_pk)
);
CREATE TABLE tab_2 (
t2_pk INT,
t2_str varchar(10) NOT NULL,
PRIMARY KEY (t2_pk),
INDEX(t2_pk, t2_str)
);
CREATE TABLE tab_rel (
t1_pk varchar(5),
t2_pk INT,
PRIMARY KEY (t1_pk,t2_pk),
INDEX (t2_pk),
FOREIGN KEY (t1_pk) REFERENCES tab_1(t1_pk),
FOREIGN KEY (t2_pk) REFERENCES tab_2(t2_pk)
);
CREATE TABLE tab_constr (
t1_pk varchar(5),
t2_str varchar(10),
t2_pk int,
PRIMARY KEY pair_already_exists(t1_pk,t2_str),
INDEX(t1_pk, t2_pk),
INDEX(t2_pk, t2_str),
FOREIGN KEY (t1_pk, t2_pk) REFERENCES tab_rel(t1_pk, t2_pk)
ON DELETE CASCADE,
FOREIGN KEY (t2_pk, t2_str) REFERENCES tab_2(t2_pk, t2_str)
ON UPDATE CASCADE
);
CREATE TRIGGER tr_ins_rel AFTER INSERT ON tab_rel
FOR EACH ROW
BEGIN
INSERT INTO tab_constr ( t1_pk, t2_str, t2_pk)
select new.t1_pk, t2_str, new.t2_pk
from tab_2
where t2_pk=new.t2_pk
;
END;
INSERT INTO tab_1 (t1_pk) VALUES ('x');
INSERT INTO tab_1 (t1_pk) VALUES ('y');
INSERT INTO tab_1 (t1_pk) VALUES ('z');
INSERT INTO tab_2 (t2_pk,t2_str) VALUES (1, 'AAA');
INSERT INTO tab_2 (t2_pk,t2_str) VALUES (2, 'BBB');
INSERT INTO tab_2 (t2_pk,t2_str) VALUES (3, 'AAA');
INSERT INTO tab_2 (t2_pk,t2_str) VALUES (4, 'BBB');
INSERT INTO tab_rel (t1_pk,t2_pk) VALUES ('x', 1);
INSERT INTO tab_rel (t1_pk,t2_pk) VALUES ('x', 2);
INSERT INTO tab_rel (t1_pk,t2_pk) VALUES ('y', 3);
INSERT INTO tab_rel (t1_pk,t2_pk) VALUES ('y', 4);
INSERT INTO tab_rel (t1_pk,t2_pk) VALUES ('z', 1);
INSERT INTO tab_rel (t1_pk,t2_pk) VALUES ('z', 2);
commit;
The following statement will raise an error:
INSERT INTO tab_rel (t1_pk,t2_pk) VALUES ('x', 3);
This also raises an error
UPDATE tab_2 set t2_str='BBB' where t2_pk=1;
But this will work
DELETE FROM tab_rel where t1_pk='x' and t2_pk=1;
INSERT INTO tab_rel (t1_pk,t2_pk) VALUES ('x', 3);
and this will work
UPDATE tab_2 set t2_str='XXX' where t2_pk=1;
Here you can try it out.
Of course this additional table violates normal form and adds redundancy to your database. But that is no problem because this table tab_constr is an auxiliary structure like an index and it will be automatically maintained by the database. So no insert/update/delete anomalies will occur.

How to achieve this in a database?

I am new to databases, but I am getting a problem:
Here AAA, BBB, TABLE-1, TABLE-2 and TABLE-3 table names(tables).
TABLE-1 (A, B) COMPOUND PRIMARY KEY(A,B) AND A IS REFER FROM *AAA(A)* AND B IS REFER FROM *BBB(B)*
1 1
1 2
2 1
TABLE-2 (D, A) D IS PRIME AND A IS REFER FROM *AAA(A)*
1 1
2 2
TABLE-3 (D, B) COMPOUND PRIMARY KEY(D,B) AND B IS REFER FROM *BBB(B)*
1 1
2 2
HERE MEANING OF TABLE-2 AND TABLE-3 IS
(D, A, B)
1 1 1
2 2 2
But the problem is in second row here A = 2, B=2 is not matching with TABLE-1.
How to achieve this?
Ex:
I have Airport, Caterer, Meal, Airport_caterer_map, Airport_Meal_Map
Airport (this main configuration table)
id Name
1 aaa
2 bbb
Caterer (this main configuration table)
id Name
1 mmm
2 nnn
Airport_caterer_map (this main configuration table)
airport_id caterer_id
1 1
1 2
2 1
Meal
id Name caterer_id
1 mmm 1

Airport_Meal_Map
mail_id airport_id
1 1
1 2
2 1
2 2 -- This row should be wrong.
why is,
1. meal 2 is available in airport 2
2. meal 2 is providing by caterer 2
3. But there is no mapping between caterer 2 and airport 2 in airport_caterer_map table.
Basically, your Airport_Meal_Map should actually be an Airport_Caterer_Meal_Map - if you want the database to help with the consistency checks:
CREATE TABLE Airport
(
id INT primary key,
name VARCHAR(30)
);
INSERT INTO Airport VALUES
(1, 'aaa'),
(2, 'bbb');
CREATE TABLE Caterer
(
id INT primary key,
name VARCHAR(30)
);
INSERT INTO Caterer VALUES
(1, 'mmm'),
(2, 'nnn');
CREATE TABLE Airport_Caterer_Map
(
airport_id INT,
caterer_id INT,
PRIMARY KEY (airport_id, caterer_id),
FOREIGN KEY (airport_id) REFERENCES Airport(id),
FOREIGN KEY (caterer_id) REFERENCES Caterer(id)
);
INSERT INTO Airport_Caterer_Map (airport_id, caterer_id) VALUES
(1, 1),
(1, 2),
(2, 1);
-- INSERT INTO Airport_Caterer_Map (airport_id, caterer_id) VALUES
-- (2, 2);
CREATE TABLE Meal
(
id INT,
name VARCHAR(30),
caterer_id INT,
PRIMARY KEY (id, caterer_id),
FOREIGN KEY (caterer_id) REFERENCES Caterer(id)
);
INSERT INTO Meal (id, name, caterer_id) VALUES
(1, 'mmm', 1),
(2, 'nnn', 2);
-- INSERT INTO Meal (id, name, caterer_id) VALUES
-- (1, 'mmm', 2);
-- INSERT INTO Meal (id, name, caterer_id) VALUES
-- (2, 'nnn', 1);
CREATE TABLE Airport_Meal_Map -- actually Airport_Caterer_Meal_Map
(
meal_id INT,
airport_id INT,
caterer_id INT,
PRIMARY KEY (meal_id, airport_id, caterer_id),
FOREIGN KEY (airport_id, caterer_id) REFERENCES Airport_Caterer_Map(airport_id, caterer_id),
FOREIGN KEY (meal_id, caterer_id) REFERENCES Meal(id, caterer_id)
);
INSERT INTO Airport_Meal_Map (meal_id, airport_id, caterer_id) VALUES
(1, 1, 1),
(1, 2, 1),
(2, 1, 2);
-- Fails as meal 1 is not prepared by caterer 2
-- INSERT INTO Airport_Meal_Map (meal_id, airport_id, caterer_id) VALUES

How can I insert a new row, but if the combination of 2 values already exist update the row?

my table looks like this
CREATE TABLE sample
(
id int auto_increment primary key,
W_ID varchar(20),
TC_ID varchar(20),
foo varchar(20),
bar varchar(20)
);
I want to insert a new row into this table, but if the combination of W_ID and TC_ID already exists, i want to update the row with the new values of 'foo' and 'bar'
I know there are a lot of similar questions on here, but i can't figure it out....
made a sample in sqlfiddle.com
i am using 5.6.11-MySQL - Apache/2.2.22 (Win32) PHP/5.3.25
you can create a unique key of the combination of W_ID and TC_ID then perform your upsert on it as follows:
CREATE TABLE sample
(
id int auto_increment primary key,
W_ID varchar(20),
TC_ID varchar(20),
foo varchar(20),
bar varchar(20)
);
alter table sample add constraint UNIQUE (W_ID, TC_ID);
INSERT INTO sample
(W_ID, TC_ID,foo,bar)
VALUES ('1', '2','123','123');
INSERT INTO sample
(W_ID, TC_ID,foo,bar)
VALUES ('2', '2','123','123');
INSERT INTO sample
(W_ID, TC_ID,foo,bar)
VALUES ('3', '2','123','123');
INSERT INTO sample
(W_ID, TC_ID,foo,bar)
VALUES ('1', '4','123','123');
INSERT INTO sample
(W_ID, TC_ID,foo,bar)
VALUES ('2', '3','123','123');
INSERT INTO sample
(W_ID, TC_ID,foo,bar)
VALUES ('1', '2','123','123')
ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE
`foo` = 'newFoo';
your results would look like:
ID W_ID TC_ID FOO BAR
1 1 2 newFoo 123
2 2 2 123 123
3 3 2 123 123
4 1 4 123 123
5 2 3 123 123
If you add unique constraint on the two columns you'll be able to use on duplicate key update syntax.
Adding an unique constrain should be something like that:
alter table table_name add unique index index_name(col1, col2);
