If you get an error that reads “WRONGTYPE Operation against a key holding the wrong kind of value” when using the ZCOUNT command in Redis, it’s probably because you’re passing a key with the wrong data type.
To fix this issue, be sure that the key you pass to the ZCOUNT command holds a sorted set.
If you’re getting error Msg 6855 in SQL Server that reads “Inline schema is not supported with FOR XML PATH“, it’s because you’re trying to add an inline schema to an XML document that you’re generating using PATH mode with the FOR XML clause.
As the message alludes to, PATH mode doesn’t support the ability to create an inline schema when using the FOR XML clause.
To fix this issue, either use a different mode to generate the XML with an inline schema (specifically, use either AUTO or RAW mode), or don’t generate an inline schema at all.
If you’re getting SQL Server error Msg 529 that reads something like Explicit conversion from data type int to date is not allowed, it’s because you’re trying to perform an explicit data type conversion that’s not permitted.
SQL Server doesn’t allow certain conversions. If you try to perform such a conversion, you’ll get this error.
Continue readingIf you get an error that reads “WRONGTYPE Operation against a key holding the wrong kind of value” when using the ZADD command in Redis, it’s probably because you’re trying to update a key that contains the wrong data type.
To fix this issue, be sure to only use the ZADD command against sorted sets if the key already exists. If the key doesn’t already exist, then you shouldn’t get this error.
If you’re getting error msg 220 that reads something like Arithmetic overflow error for data type…, it’s probably because you’re trying to convert a value to a data type that can’t handle that value. For example, trying to convert a number to a smallint but the number’s too big to fit into a smallint.
To fix this issue, make sure you convert the value to a data type that can handle the size of the number that you’re trying to convert.
Continue readingIf you’re getting an error that reads something like “MINVALUE (1) must be less than MAXVALUE (1)” in PostgreSQL when you’re trying to create a sequence, it’s probably because your sequence’s minimum possible value is higher than the maximum value.
To fix this issue, be sure that the sequence’s maximum value is greater than the minimum value.
Continue readingIf you get an error that reads “WRONGTYPE Operation against a key holding the wrong kind of value” when using the ZLEXCOUNT command in Redis, it’s probably because you’re passing a key with the wrong data type.
To fix this issue, be sure that you pass a sorted set to the ZLEXCOUNT command.
If you’re getting error Msg 3625 in SQL Server that reads “‘Inline XSD for FOR XML EXPLICIT’ is not yet implemented“, it’s because you’re trying to add an inline schema to an XML document that you’re generating using EXPLICIT mode with the FOR XML clause.
As the message alludes to, SQL Server doesn’t yet support inline XSD schemas when using EXPLICIT mode of the FOR XML clause (at least, not at the time of this writing).
To fix this issue, either use a different mode to generate the XML with an inline schema (specifically, use either AUTO or RAW mode), or don’t generate an inline schema at all (i.e. remove XMLSCHEMA from the query).
If you’re getting an error that reads something like “START value (101) cannot be greater than MAXVALUE (100)” in PostgreSQL when you’re trying to create a sequence, it’s probably because your sequence’s maximum possible value is lower than the start value.
To fix this issue, change either the start value or maximum value so that the maximum value is greater than the start value.
Continue readingIf you’re getting an error in PostgreSQL that reads something like “cannot insert into column” with detail that explains that the “…is an identity column defined as GENERATED ALWAYS“, it’s probably because you’re trying to insert your own value into an identity column that was created with the GENERATED ALWAYS option, but you’re not explicitly overriding the column from auto generating its own value.
To fix this issue, use OVERRIDING SYSTEM VALUE when inserting the value.
