I'm getting the error [ORA-01427: single-row subquery returns more than one row] when I execute a query. I have a query structured like so:
SELECT LV.PRICE,
(SELECT C.MODEL_NAME FROM CARS C WHERE C.MODEL_ID = LV.MODEL_ID) as MODEL_NAME
FROM LEDGER_VIEW LV
WHERE LV.PRICE < 500
It's breaking on the nested select. I know the logic both in the view and in this query is correct, and that there's no chance of the nested select returning more than one row. The CARS table's MODEL_ID is a unique field. If I execute the query without the nested select it doesn't return this error.
The LEDGER_VIEW is a view built on top of another view. Is it possible that these stacked views are buggy in Oracle 10g? I don't know how else to debug this problem.
I am aware I could change this particular query to a join rather than a nested select, but I'd like to know why this is happening because I use nested queries in other places where it is not so easily modifiable.
EDIT : Here's the really strange thing. The LEDGER_VIEW is, as I said, built on top of another view. As a test, I copied the nested view's SQL directly into the SQL of the SQL of LEDGER_VIEW, in place of the nested view, and it returned with no errors (as expected). This seems to confirm to me that there is some buggy behavior either with nested views or with the combination of nested views + database links.
Your subquery is returning multiple rows. Use the query below to find out which MODELID
values in the Car
table are duplicated:
select MODELID as CarsModelID, count(*) as Count
from cars
where MODELID in (
select MODEL_ID
from LEDGER_VIEW
WHERE LV.PRICE < 500
)
group by MODELID
having count(*) > 1
I am unable to recreate via a creation of a stacked view. (althoug RedFilters will find the culprit)
CREATE TABLE t1
(
t1_id NUMBER ,
txt VARCHAR2( 50 ),
CONSTRAINT t1_pk PRIMARY KEY( t1_id )
) ;

select t1_view.txt ,
t2_view.price ,

from t1_view
left join
t2_view
on t1_view.t1_id = t2_view .t1_id
;
--stacked view test
select t1_view.txt ,
(select t_stacked_view.price
from t_stacked_view
where t1_view.t1_id = t_stacked_view .t1_id) price
from t1_view ;
--or better yet, just drop the row level query
select t1_view.txt ,
t2_view.price
from t1_view
left join
t2_view
on t1_view.t1_id = t2_view .t1_id
;
But that begs the question, why are you doing the row level query here? While 10g ought to optimize them the same, I have always found it easier to write queries as below, both for readability, maintainability, and to specifically avoid the error you are having (is it always, 3 years down the road, guaranteed by the application (both in the db and the calling app) that you cannot have a condition that will cause this error? One rouge statement gets in and your entire app dies?
SELECT LV.PRICE,
c.model_name
FROM LEDGER_VIEW LV
LEFT /* OR INNER */ JOIN CARS C
ON C.MODEL_ID = LV.MODEL_ID
WHERE LV.PRICE < 500
I suggest using RedFilter's answer to check whether there are multiple cars with a given MODEL_ID.
If you're absolutely certain that CARS.MODEL_ID is unique, then it implies that the error message is generated by selection from LEDGER_VIEW - so try running the equivalent query without the subquery on CARS, like so:
SELECT LV.PRICE
FROM LEDGER_VIEW LV
WHERE LV.PRICE < 500
If you still see the same error (you should, if CARS.MODEL_ID is unique) you will need to debug LEDGER_VIEW - ie. check for sub-queries returning multiple rows in LEDGER_VIEW and the underlying views it is based on.
Creating views based on views is possible in most forms of SQL, but it is usually a bad idea - for this very reason.

Try forcing your subquery to return a single result by appending rownum = 1, like this:
SELECT LV.PRICE,
(SELECT C.MODEL_NAME FROM CARS C WHERE C.MODEL_ID = LV.MODEL_ID AND ROWNUM = 1) as MODEL_NAME
FROM LEDGER_VIEW LV
WHERE LV.PRICE < 500
It will probably work and if it does, you will know that your subquery returns multiple rows, which judging by the error code it should be. Of course this is not a solution so you might have to fix your data in cars table to actually solve the problem. Leaving and rownum = 1 will eliminate the error if model_id is duplicated again, preventing you from noticing the problem.
