Oracle's SDO_NET.FIND_CONNECTED_COMPONENTS fails with 'wrong number or types of arguments in call'

I am attempting to create an Oracle Network Model to analyze a fibre optic communications network using Oracle Database 12c Enterprise Edition Release 12.2.0.1.0 - 64bit Production. All the steps are successful up until I call SDO_NET.FIND_CONNECTED_COMPONENTS which always fails with the generic 'wrong number or types of arguments in call'.

I'm hoping someone can point out how to correct this.

Below are steps to reproduce the problem.

-- Create a network
EXEC SDO_NET.CREATE_SDO_NETWORK('TEST2',1,FALSE,FALSE);

-- verify metadata created
SELECT * FROM USER_SDO_NETWORK_METADATA;

-- verify Node, Link and Path tables created
DESCRIBE TEST2_NODE$;

DESCRIBE TEST2_LINK$;

DESCRIBE TEST2_PATH$;

-- Insert spatial metadata for each
INSERT INTO USER_SDO_GEOM_METADATA VALUES (
  'TEST2_NODE$',
  'GEOMETRY',
  MDSYS.SDO_DIM_ARRAY(
    MDSYS.SDO_DIM_ELEMENT('X', 200000.0, 1900000.0, 0.0005),
    MDSYS.SDO_DIM_ELEMENT('Y', 300000.0, 1800000.0, 0.0005)
  ),
  3005
);

INSERT INTO USER_SDO_GEOM_METADATA VALUES (
  'TEST2_LINK$',
  'GEOMETRY',
  MDSYS.SDO_DIM_ARRAY(
    MDSYS.SDO_DIM_ELEMENT('X', 200000.0, 1900000.0, 0.0005),
    MDSYS.SDO_DIM_ELEMENT('Y', 300000.0, 1800000.0, 0.0005)
  ),
  3005
);

INSERT INTO USER_SDO_GEOM_METADATA VALUES (
  'TEST2_PATH$',
  'GEOMETRY',
  MDSYS.SDO_DIM_ARRAY(
    MDSYS.SDO_DIM_ELEMENT('X', 200000.0, 1900000.0, 0.0005),
    MDSYS.SDO_DIM_ELEMENT('Y', 300000.0, 1800000.0, 0.0005)

);

UPDATE 2024/01/22 Working with our DBA I have directory to write the log file which the procedure requires. Thanks @Littlefoot

Solution

  • Peter, You probably have figured it out by now. You simply create a directory and grant READ/WRITE privileges to your DB user.

    create directory CC_LOG_DIR as '<folder_path>'; grant read, write on directory CC_LOG_DIR to <db_user>;

    The resulting table looks then as follows:

    LINK_LEVEL NODE_ID COMPONENT_ID

         1          2            1
     1          6            1
     1         10            1
