View 3 Repliesi am trying to create a external table.Table is getting created but there is no data.While checking the log file, its saying
KUP-04021: field formatting error for field CUST_CODE
KUP-04026: field too long for datatype
KUP-04101: record 1 rejected in file /data/mmi_mig_data/PCOM_CUSTOMER_1.csv
KUP-04021: field formatting error for field CUST_CODE
KUP-04026: field too long for datatype
KUP-04101: record 2 rejected in file /data/mmi_mig_data/PCOM_CUSTOMER_1.csv
But according to me in CSV file everything looks to be okay.External Table:
CREATE TABLE ET_PCOM_CUSTOMER(CUST_CODE VARCHAR2(12), CUST_TITLE VARCHAR2(12),
CUST_NAME VARCHAR2(240), CUST_MIDDLE_NAME VARCHAR2(240),
CUST_FIRST_NAME VARCHAR2(240), CUST_LAST_NAME VARCHAR2(240),
CUST_GENDER VARCHAR2(12), CUST_MARITAL_STS VARCHAR2(12),
CUST_NIC_NO VARCHAR2(60), CUST_ADDR_01 VARCHAR2(240),
[code]...
I made a directory and a external table, pointing to a file in the created directory. It appears that using unc path in my directory, won't work with my external table. Although the unc path points to the same server as where the database server is located.Is my assumption correct?
create or replace directory DIVA_POK as '\tvm011gm_diva_dir$ronnendbga_pok'

AOT_IDENTIFICERENDE_SLEUTELvarchar2(14),

I am using an external table with numbers and joining the external table to fetch data and Insert into another table.I am altering the table within procedure to pass csv file name as parameter as It'll change each time. It's working fine but in case if my grouping id is having two gids, then Header from csv file is also inserted as row in to coupon_personlization_members.
I gave skip 1 in external table but for second GID, header is inserted as row.I don't want header to be inserted as row but header will be there on csv file.
Here is my procedure :
CREATE OR REPLACE
PROCEDURE proc_coupon_load(
p_grouping_id NUMBER,
p_file_name VARCHAR2)
[code]..
I have created a softlink to a data file orig_file.dat using the command ln -s orig_file.dat orig_file_link.dat
Now is it possible to create an external table using this linked file orig_file_link.dat
I am using this linked file to minimise the space usage because every month we get different data files and external table creation is done as a batch job copying the data file to another file whenever a new data file arrives. External table is created with the new file. so i need to check whether it is possible with the linked file instead of copying the file.
I'm not sure if this should go on this topic.
Anyway, I've loaded 5 .csv files through an external table and after doing it I tried to delete them.
But this error comes "Cannot delete 'filename': It is being used by another person or program".
I closed Oracle Developer and tried again deleting them manually, and the result was the same.
Tried restarting and deleting one .csv and it worked, but when I open sql dev and tried deleting the other files couldn't do it.
The question is: files that were used on external tables can't be deleted if developer is working?
The thing is that I've created a Stored Procedure that delete the files and obviously can't work. So, I should delete every time I load a csv file after restarting the computer.
How can I enable NOLOGGING in an External Table ?
My Table FT_PRICE_COST_MASTER is taking a long time(more than 1 hour) to excute inside the procedure. The statement is:
SELECT SUBSTR(m.sr_no,1,16) SR_NO, m.SKU_CODE, m.location_code, m.start_date, m.end_date, m.COST, m.tax, m.octroi, m.freight, m.cash_disc, m.scheme_disc, m.mrp, m.csp, m.rsp1_qty, m.rsp1_value, m.rsp2_qty, m.rsp2_value, m.rsp3_qty, m.rsp3_value, m.net_cost, m.final_cost, m.current_margin, m.pc_effect, m.created_by, m.creation_date, m.modified_by, m.modification_date, m.change_ind, m.tax_code,

When I am recreating the External table with NOLOGGING keyword at the bottom of the synatx, it's showing "operation not supported". Else are there any other points that I should look to increase the execution time of the above statement ?
Actually what i am trying to do is to extract data form tables and place them in an external text file....i wrote the following code

Is it possible to trim the file name while loading into OWB through external tables?
Like suppose I am trying to read a file which has a timestamp value appended in its name. In that case loading into external file would give an error.
using oracle 10g currently create many external tables like so..
CREATE TABLE "XT_UNITS"
(
"Q1_2012" VARCHAR2(25 BYTE),
"Q2_2012" VARCHAR2(25 BYTE),
"Q3_2012" VARCHAR2(25 BYTE),
"Q4_2012" VARCHAR2(25 BYTE)
[code]....
is there any way I can use 1 flat file (csv) to populate many external tables ?
I would like to know which of the above is faster for the same conditions.
i.e. If I am loading 1 million rows for the same conditions which will perform faster?
i just posted another topic where i heard about external table and i had a few questions concerning them. I thought it was best to create a new topic than to continue on the other one...
I noticed that to create an external table the CTL is like this:
CREATE TABLE emp_load (FIELDS description)
ORGANIZATION EXTERNAL (TYPE ORACLE_LOADER DEFAULT DIRECTORY ext_tab_dir
ACCESS PARAMETERS (RECORDS FIXED 62 FIELDS (employee_number CHAR(2),
[Code]...
1) This creates an external table, but, is it possible to Create a normal table in a CTL file? For physical tables, the table has to exist right?
2) if you create a view linked to 2 external tables and if the CSV files are updated each day, the external tables will be updated automatically, and the view will be updated as well?
3) Can't there be any synchronisation problems?
4) What happens if a select request (or someone requests on the view) while the CSV file is being updated?
5) Is there anyway you can protect the accesses from those tables/views when the CSVs are being updated?
6) Is it possible to create an index on these sort of tables?
7) Is it possible to index a view?
8) Are external tables visible on a tool like sql developper?
the following situation, I have a directory named /dat/global/stock/ inside this i will get files named differently for example below.abcdef.112dfgrt.2......
Here i want to load this file one by one into the external tables and generate one more file based on some enrichment.
Step 1. Have to take first file and to load into the ext table.
Step 2. Enrichment
Step 3.File generation.
Now here i am facing a problem that in that particular directory i usually get 1000 files so i need to get file one by one and to put in one more directory. how can i get file one by one and generate file by using oracle loader
how to load the pdf data from c drive to the oracle tables to their respective columns in forms 6i.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have got a procedure that successfully creates an oracle external table and populates it with the contents of a file. This works fine until I have a situation where one of the fields is a VARCHAR2(2) and I try to insert say, a 5 character value. When this happens the record in question does not get populated in the external table (and rightly so), but I could do with working out if there is a discrepancy in the number of records in the file and the number of records that actually make it into the table so I could inform the user that there is a problem.
I have attached the code that creates the external table and populates it.
We are using hand scanning machine for attendance, machine saved data in a TEXT file now I want to load data into my oracle base payroll system.
data saved in this format.

31201009240933000100000000060001
as per my understanding
20100924 is date
0928 is time
269 is employee code
but I am unable to understand, is this IN or OUT time?
Encountering an issue with an Oracle external table. We get the following error when we load a particular file in this table:
ORA-12801: error signaled in parallel query server P000
ORA-29913: error in executing ODCIEXTTABLEFETCH callout
ORA-30653: reject limit reached
ORA-06512: at "SYS.ORACLE_LOADER", line 52
We have narrowed this down to a text field in the file that contains the following text (text obfuscated):
XXXXXXXX ł XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
This is nominally 40 characters long, which matches the maximum field size, but it is being rejected because it appears the 'ł' character is causing Oracle to interpret the length as 41 characters instead. If I remove a X then the file loads without issue.
We tried this in a new schema we created where we added the same table and used the same file. There was no problem at all. The oracle database has the following settings:
NLS_CHARACTERSETUTF8
NLS_NCHAR_CHARACTERSETUTF8
NLS_LENGTH_SEMANTICSBYTE
NLS_LANGUAGEAMERICAN
The table is defined as follows:
CREATE TABLE XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX.XXXXXXXXX_INTERFACE
(
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX VARCHAR2(40 CHAR),
XXXXXXXXXX VARCHAR2(40 CHAR),
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX VARCHAR2(40 CHAR),
XXXXXXXXXXXXX VARCHAR2(40 CHAR),
[code]........
We tried adding the following attributes but they did not seem to make any difference:
CHARACTERSET UTF8
STRING SIZES ARE IN CHARACTERS
oracle version : Oracle8i Enterprise Edition Release 8.1.7.4.0 - Production
How we can create external table in oracle8i:

I have a flat file on an unix system.The file is required to be loaded through Oracle External Table.
Issue:
Not sure how to skip the first record when loading through Oracle External Table.How to suppress data while loading through External Table.
Requiremen syntax where in I can skip the first record. syntax for suppressing values in columns that are not required. How the same needs to be handled in case of Number datatype and Varchar2 datatype. Example - In case of Number can it be replaced with 0 and for datatype can be same be replaced with NULL.

We want all the line breaks to replaced with a space or a comma. to implement this i have used to simple select as :
Select Replace(text,chr(10),'')
From paymemo
where referencepkey = (select pkey from paymain where ID = 'DED-520074 505354DN6 2012-02-04 00:06:48');
This is not working because of type conversion issues.
I came across an implementation where data from DB2 tables are moved to Oracle tables, for BI solutioning, using some oracle procedures called from MS SQL DTS packages which are scheduled jobs.Just being curious, can this be done using OWB or ODI rather than the above detour. I suppose there are some changes being done in those procedures before the data is being loaded into Oracle tables, can't this be done using OWB/ODI? Can it be scheduled too as jobs using OWB/ODI?
