ORA-00933: SQL command not properly ended

ORA-00933: SQL command not properly ended

ORA-00933: SQL command not properly ended
Cause: The SQL statement ends with an inappropriate clause. For example, an ORDER BY clause may have been included in a CREATE VIEW or INSERT statement. ORDER BY cannot be used to create an ordered view or to insert in a certain order
Action: Correct the syntax by removing the inappropriate clauses. It may be possible to duplicate the removed clause with another SQL statement. For example, to order the rows of a view, do so when querying the view and not when creating it. This error can also occur in SQL*Forms applications if a continuation line is indented. Check for indented lines and delete these spaces

ORA-00932: inconsistent datatypes: expected string got string

ORA-00932: inconsistent datatypes: expected string got string

ORA-00932: inconsistent datatypes: expected string got string
Cause: One of the following:
 An attempt was made to perform an operation on incompatible datatypes. For example, adding a character field to a date field (dates may only be added to numeric fields) or concatenating a character field with a long field.
 An attempt was made to perform an operation on a database object (such as a table or view) that is not intended for normal use. For example, system tables cannot be modified by a user. Note that on rare occasions this error occurs because a misspelled object name matched a restricted object’s name.
 An attempt was made to use an undocumented view
Action: If the cause is
 different datatypes, then use consistent datatypes. For example, convert the character field to a numeric field with the TO_NUMBER function before adding it to the date field. Functions may not be used with long fields.
 an object not intended for normal use, then do not access the restricted object
