Error in Oracle stored procedure

Question

When trying to create this stored procedure, I\'m getting an error:

PLS-00428: an INTO clause is expected in this SELECT statement

Answer 1

In Oracle stored procedure we have to SELECT values into either variables or out parameters. Please read the docs.

Try to create your stored procedure in the following manner.

CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE finddb (
    p_bookid            IN   bookmaster.bookid%TYPE,
    p_publishercode     OUT bookmaster.publishercode%TYPE,
    p_isbncode              OUT bookmaster.isbncode%TYPE,
    p_bookname              OUT bookmaster.bookname%TYPE,
    p_booktype              OUT bookmaster.booktype%TYPE,
    p_booklevel             OUT bookmaster.booklevel%TYPE,
    p_bookcategory      OUT bookmaster.bookcategory%TYPE,
    p_authornames           OUT bookmaster.authornames%TYPE,
    p_publishedyear     OUT bookmaster.publishedyear%TYPE,
    p_costprice             OUT bookmaster.costprice%TYPE,
    p_mrp                   OUT bookmaster.mrp%TYPE,
    p_bookimage             OUT bookmaster.bookimage%TYPE
)
AS
BEGIN
    SELECT  publishercode,
                isbncode,
                bookname,
                booktype,
                booklevel,
                bookcategory,
                authornames,
                publishedyear,
                costprice,
                mrp,
                bookimage
      INTO  p_publishercode,
                p_isbncode,
                p_bookname,
                p_booktype,
                p_booklevel,
                p_bookcategory,
                p_authornames,
                p_publishedyear,
                p_costprice,
                p_mrp,
                p_bookimage
      FROM  bookmaster
     WHERE  bookid = p_bookid;
END finddb;
