Re: SQL in perl/tk

The query should be executed by Oracle, not by the driver, hence the complexity should not matter. As marto said, turn on error reporting.

BTW, you can rewrite "AND (gamm.PROCESS_NAME = 'SAM_Exact_Product_Search' OR gamm.APPLICATION_NAME = 'SAM_Exact_Product_Search')" as "AND 'SAM_Exact_Product_Search' IN (gamm.PROCESS_NAME, gamm.APPLICATION_NAME)"

. Get's rid of the OR and only requires the literal once.

trunc(gmz.testtime) will obviate the use of any INDEX on gmz.testtime, better to use AND gmz.testtime >= to_date('09/12/2011','MM/DD/YYYY') AND gmz.testtime < to_date('09/16/2011','MM/DD/YYYY')

IIUC, i don't think you need to specify TO_CHAR in the GROUP BY clause.

For formatting the query, so people can read it, try:

SELECT
	gamm.PROCESS_NAME,
	GAMM.APPLICATION_NAME,
	TO_CHAR(TRUNC(gmz.testtime - 7 / 24, 'DD'),'MM/DD/YYYY')
	Fiscal_Day,
	ROUND
	(
	 AVG
	 (
	  DECODE(total_response_time, 0, NULL, total_response_time)
	  / DECODE (total_page_count,0, 1,total_page_count)
	 )
	 / 1000,
	 2
	) Average_Response_time
FROM
	portal_gomez_bb_load		gmz,
	GOMEZ_APP_MAPPING_MASTER	gamm
WHERE
	gmz.monitor_id			= 3805260
  AND	'SAM_Exact_Product_Search'	IN (gamm.PROCESS_NAME, gamm.APPLICATION_NAME)
  AND	gmz.testtime			>= to_date('09/12/2011','MM/DD/YYYY')
  AND	gmz.testtime			< to_date('09/16/2011','MM/DD/YYYY')
  AND	success_flag			= 0
GROUP BY
	gamm.PROCESS_NAME,
	GAMM.APPLICATION_NAME,
	TRUNC (gmz.testtime - 7 / 24, 'DD');

Hi All, Thanks a lot for all the replies. I have tried to include the piece of SQL code by inserting into my code. But this too is not giving any results. I am using the correct Userid/pwd/schema etc. for this. Please find the piece of code I have written.

use strict;
use Tk;
use Tk::BrowseEntry;
use Tk::LabFrame;
use Tk::JPEG;
use DBI;
use DBD::Oracle;
use Spreadsheet::WriteExcel;

sub generateDailyReport{
    
    #Create Excel
    my $workbook = Spreadsheet::WriteExcel->new('Report.xls');
    my $worksheet   = $workbook->add_worksheet();
    my $from_date = @_[0];
    my $to_date = @_[1];
    
    #Connect to DB
    my $dbh = DBI->connect("dbi:Oracle:cecdev9","asdm_dev","c1sc0pass"

    or die "cannot connect $DBI::errstr\n";
    
       my $sth = $dbh->prepare("SELECT   gamm.PROCESS_NAME, GAMM.APPLI

        $sth->execute();
    my $i = "A1";
    my $j = 1;
    while ( my @row = $sth->fetchrow_array( ) )  {

     $worksheet->write($i, \@row);

    }

}

Please help. Thanks, Vidya Surendran

Did you read the replies you already have? I advised that you look at tracing, which you've not done in this example.

[vsurend]

Hi Marto, Yes I checked. But I am afraid, I dont know how to check the trace for DBD. Can you please help. :( Thanks, Vidya Surendran

[chacham]

Check for an error: die $dbh->errstr if ! defined $msg;

Not only after the DB connect, but after the statement is run.

[vsurend]

Hurray! got the issue... It was that wrong userid/pwd that eat up my days....Thanks a lot for all the valuable suggestions.....
