ORA-31068

updateXML expected data format [string] instead of [string]

Cause

An attempt was made to use updateXML to update data with a node of the incorrect type. Text and attribute nodes must be updated with string data, whereas element nodes must be updated with XMLType data.


Action

Use CREATEXML or getStringVal to coerce the new data to the proper format.
