Re: Fwd: parameter type is unknown error

Hi Ray,

I think the problem is not associated with you suggestion cause I changed
both of two parameter type as varchar(by the way, I deleted address column
and I only have two column that got me crazy!) still doesn't insert any
data.

you can see changes as I emphasized as bold.

create or replace function cargo.insertinvoice (forderid integer, fcargoid
integer, finvoiceowner integer, freceiverfname *varchar*, freceiverlname
*varchar*, freceiverphone integer, fsendingdatetime timestamp without time
zone, fdistance real, fweight numeric, finvoiceamount money,
fcargocreateddate date, fcargoupdateddate timestamp, fcargocancelled
timestamp without time zone) returns numeric as $$
declare v_id bigint;
begin

insert into cargo.invoice (orderid, cargoid, invoiceowner, receiverfname,
receiverlname, receiverphone, sendingdatetime, distance, weight, addedtax,
invoiceamount, cargocreateddate, cargoupdateddate, cargocancelled)
values(forderid,fcargoid,finvoiceowner,freceiverfname,freceiverlname,freceiverphone,
fsendingdatetime,
fdistance,fweight,faddedtax,finvoiceamount,fcargocreateddate,fcargoupdateddate,fcargocancelled)
returning id;
end;
$$ language plpgsql;

I used bellow code to execute function;

select * from cargo.insertinvoice(1013, 10, 44,cast('test1' as
varchar),cast('test2' as varchar) , 12345, now(), 10000,30, 8,
400,now(),now(),now());

and I got another error;

ERROR: function cargo.insertinvoice(integer, integer, integer, character
varying, character varying, integer, timestamp with time zone, integer,
integer, integer, integer, timestamp with time zone, timestamp with time
zone, timestamp with time zone) does not exist

LINE 1: select * from cargo.insertinvoice(1013, 10, 44,cast('test1' ...

^

HINT: No function matches the given name and argument types. You might
need to add explicit type casts.

It seems nothing changed.

Yours sincerely,

Gunce
