ORA-00924: missing BY keyword
Oracle PL/SQL error message: ORA-00924: missing BY keyword
Cause:
The keyword BY was omitted in a GROUP BY, ORDER BY, or CONNECT BY clause. In a GRANT statement, the keyword IDENTIFIED must also be followed by the keyword BY.
Solution:
Correct the syntax. Insert the keyword BY where required and then retry the statement.
Example:
select * from phones order phone_name;
Output:
ORA-00924: missing BY keyword
Correct:
select * from phones order by phone_name;
Output:
1 rows inserted.
