I am able to start SQLPLUS from Start | Program files | Oracle - OraHome92 | Application development |
Unfortunately, when trying to start it from the "command prompt" window with the following command SQLPLUS, it generates the infamous error message like
"... unknown etc... "
Any variables i need to change on my client machine ?
Is it possible to ignore the sql command prompt and the command entered while spooling. I tried the to set echo off,term off and some more options but it did not work.
Example:
SQL> spool c: est.log
SQL> Prompt "This is a test"
"This is a test"
SQL> spool off;
The spool file has the following
SQL> Prompt "This is a test"
"This is a test"
SQL> spool off;
Is it possible to set some options so that the spool file only contains output.
"This is a test"
In my sql*plus when i am writing the command ed .It was showing the error as \
SQL> ed
SP2-0110: Cannot create save file "afiedt.buf"
i tried to define the editor by using the command define_editor=notepad;
But still my problem was not solved.
I need to parse .sql file to tree and I can't find how to do it.
(We apply sql files by sqlplus and we have some problems with '/': after anonymous blocks - it haven't applied without '/'; Also not-anonymous block applied twice when we have both ';' and '/'. I need to report about problems before file will apply.) I've tried to use ANTLR with it grammar but it build awful tree.
I'm trying to change a password. I can connect to the db then at the SQL prompt I'm using:
alter user <name> identified by <new password>
The dos window comes back with '2' - then just sits there
I am using the SQL*PLUS COPY command to move the data from my database to another remote database. The data in my database also contains DATETIME format. But since COPY command cannot handle DATETIME format, I am wondering is there any workaround for this.
Note: Due to some limitations, I cannot use other methods like DATABASE LINK or EXPDP/IMPDP commands.

I need to accept value for some variables using substitution variable. I have a number of variables for which I need to take the value on run time. I need to prompt a parameter based on the value provided earlier.
For example;
There is prompt to enter country. If the user enters country as India it should prompt for the state else it should not prompt for state.
How can this be handled in SQL?

I have a requirement to get a delimited output file by executing a select query.
For e.g.
select id, name, age from customers;
i need the output as,
id,name,age
123,devi,23
34,abi,20
4900,infy,23
i tried select id||','||name||','||age from customers;
but am getting the following output....
id||','||name||','||age
123,devi,23
34,abi,20
4900,infy,23
But i want to remove those pipes in between the column name.
I tried colsep also... but there am getting the output as.,
id,name,age
123, devi, 23
34, abi, 20
4900, infy, 23
some unwanted spaces in between...but i want the output as this...
id,name,age
123,devi,23
34,abi,20
4900,infy,23
the query which am using is stored in a .sql file.
I used the following command :
-------------------------------------------------
D:oracleproduct10.1.0Db_2jdkinjava -Djava.security.properties=D:oracleproduct10.1.0Db_2sqlplusadminiplusprovider -jar D:oracleproduct10.1.0Db_2oc4jj2eehomejazn.jar -user "iSQL*Plus DBA/admin" -password welcome -shell
--------------------------------------------------------
Output as follows:
--------------------------------------------

... ... ...
Realm [iSQL*Plus DBA] does not exist in system.
-----------------------------------------------
what may be the reason for this error?
the reason for not availability of ISQLPLUS & SQLPLUSW window from oracle 11g.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI need generate a script like this.
spool loadvalues.sql
INSERT INTO SALES(column1, column2, column2) SELECT( COLUMN1, COLUMN2, COLUMN3) FROM TABLE_NAME;
spool off;
I would like to substitute TABLE_NAME with each value from the following query;
select table_name from user_tables
where table_name like 'SALES%'
so there are about 45 SALES tables ex: SALES_IDAHO,SALES_MICHIGAN etc.so my spool file(loadvalues.sql) should look like this ex:
INSERT INTO SALES(column1, column2, column2) SELECT( COLUMN1, COLUMN2, COLUMN3) FROM SALES_IDAHO;
sales_michingan should have script like
INSERT INTO SALES(column1, column2, column2) SELECT( COLUMN1, COLUMN2, COLUMN3) FROM SALES_MICHIGAN;
I m currently written a sqlplus query and executing as below
sqlplus -s << !
set head off pages off trimspool on termout off
spool sysdate.txt
select sysdate from dual;
spool off
!
With this query the sysdate is getting written in the sysdate.txt but it is also getting printed in the screen/terminal., which I don't need to. Is their any options available for that.
Note: I came to know that "Termout off" will work only when we execute the query from a file and as a result I can still see the sysdate getting displayed in the screen.
How to find user name in sqlplus?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI usually work in oracle using the different editors like toad, plsql developer etc. I felt command line is good utility because of various supporting points. I am not sure what kind of command line tools is available/used. I am using pretty straight command line
(run->cmd, then enter username and password).
The best command line tools available. What is generally used command line tools.

how to handle these cases by a SQLPlus?
I am using Windows 7 and oracle 10g; From sqlplus* I can not use editor (using ed). but when I see the variable from DEFINE.. It shows that default editor is notepad..
I can use editor in winxp.How to get (use) editor ?
I have a .sql file that is used as a wrapper file that when executes within sqlplus (9.2.0.1.0), executes a bunch of .sql files within it. Example below:
WRAPPER.SQL
START D:ScriptsA.sql "'04-01-2012 00:00:00'"
START D:ScriptsB.sql "'04-01-2012 00:00:00'"
START D:ScriptsC.sql "'04-01-2012 00:00:00'"
START D:ScriptsD.sql "'04-01-2012 00:00:00'"
START D:ScriptsE.sql "'04-01-2012 00:00:00'"
EXIT;
Each of the .sql file (A,B,C,D,E) Spools individual output of sql statment within them. Each of the indv .sql file queries different tables with different filters(where) clause.
I would like to capture any error (OS,SQL,DB) into indv error file (A_ERROR.log). The reason being is because later in the process we need to validate if there were any errors before processing and loading the data into our SQL database
I have a shells script which invokes a SQL file. However even with AUTOCOMMIT OFF and on SQLERROR EXIT ROLLBACK. Sqlplus fails to rollback.
My sql file has 3 lines 3 are correct and 1 is incorrect. For example:
INSERT INTO TEST_ROUTING VALUES (24, 'ROUTING');
INSERT INTO TEST_ROUTING VALUES (25, 'ROUTING');
INSERT INTO TEST_ROUTING VALUES (26, 'ROUTING);
Lets say file is called 1.sql
My shell script invokes this SQL as follows: (Where $File1 = 1.sql)
$SQLPLUS_PATH/sqlplus -s /nolog <<-EOF>> ${LOGFILE}
connect $DB_USER/$Password1@$Database1
SET AUTOCOMMIT OFF
@$File1
WHENEVER SQLERROR EXIT ROLLBACK;
EOF
[code]......
So tried SET AUTOCOMMIT, tried SQLERROR ROLLBACK and tried few variations.
I try to login as SYS@sid AS SYSDBA When I login via TOAD, I am able to. However, as in (1), all my attempts to login from command-line SQL *Plus fails. The error I get is ORA-1031 Insufficient Privileges Even if I am on the physical server and try to run the SQL *Plus, I get the same error -- Insufficient Privileges
Here are the environment details:
Server: Windows Server 2008 R2

From within a DOS batch file I make the following call:
sqlplus [User]/[password]@[server] @batch_script.sql [Server] [User]
Within the file batch_script.sql I have the following lines:
spool output_batch.lst
connect &&2/[password]@&&1;
@SomeOtherFile.sql
I want to change the last line to something like this:
if &&1 = 'Something' then
@SomeOtherFile1.sql
else
@SomeOtherFile2.sql
end if;
I get the following result
SQL> if &&1 = "something" then
SP2-0734: unknown command beginning "if &&1 = "..." - rest of line ignored.
I took a shot at using the "If" statement and missed.
i do have a set of monthly process, where i need to run query one after the other. Some query will take one hours time to complete but some will take 10 hours or more to execute. My problem is that we have wait or machine shouldn't hang or log off during that time ...
I am executing the query in TOAD and windows SQL*Plus. Query can run Parallel at a time.
Is the there anyway to run the query in the background like what we do in the unix nohup command in toad?
I have a script which connects to Oracle and return 2 date value. few days back the database was down and when the script execute and return same garbage value in the spool file.
I added a exception handler WHENEVER SQLERROR EXIT 1 befor the connection start and after connection start. But in both the case it is also writing to the spool file.
I would like to exit the connection with a value <> 0 if any connection issue happens like (user id, password, database down error type of issue.) No information should go to the spool file
Output=`$ORACLE_HOME/bin/sqlplus -S /nolog << EOF

I have two scripts (test1.sql and test2.sql) that need to be executed one after the other. I would like to call them both using a single command line:
sqlplus testuser/testpwd@testdb @c: est1.sql @c: est2.sql
This does not work
creating a test3.sql script that calls test1.sql and test2.sql is not an option.
