ORA-29290

invalid offset specified for seek

Cause

An attempt was made to seek past the end of the file, or both the absolute and relative offsets were NULL, or absolute offset was less than zero.


Action

If specifying an absolute offset, ensure it is in the range [0, total number of bytes in the file], or if specifying a relative offset, ensure it is no greater than the current byte position plus the number of bytes remaining in the file.
