Problem IC62780
|
Status: Closed |
INSTANCE MAY ABEND DURING COMPILATION OF A QUERY CONTAINING IMPL ICITLY EQUIVALENT COLUMNS AND A PREDICATE WITH AN EMPTY STRING |
| product: |
DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / 950 - DB2 |
| Problem description: |
A query being compiled that has a local predicate (LOCPRD) with
an empty string literal, i.e., '', may cause the instance to
abend if the following conditions are satisfied:
1) The column (COMPCOL) in LOCPRD is equivalent to another
column (OTHCOL), e.g., via a join
2) OTHCOL is also involved in a local predicate (OTHLOCPRD)
3) LOCPRD is either an equi-join or non-equi-join predicate
4) OTHLOCPRD is an equi-join predicate
5) OTHCOL and COMPCOL are both string-type columns
The stack trace from such an abend will look something like:
sqlrxcp1
sqlnr_seldel_test
sqlnr_upddelpd_cond
sqlnr_seq
sqlnr_rcc
sqlnr_magic_detail_action

| Local Fix: |
Manually rewrite the query by adjusting the empty strings in
the2 predicates involved to have the same length as the columns
they are being compared against using spaces, e.g.,
VARCHAR_4_COL = ''
can be safely adjusted to:
VARCHAR_4_COL = ' ' |
