Loader - Not Getting Data In Some Of Fields?
Feb 7, 2012
We are using Oracle 10g, on redhat linux (version not known to me).I'm running a Perl script that reads in data from Visual FoxPro tables, creates datafiles on the fly from these FP tables, then SQL-Loader runs and uploads all the data to matching tables in Oracle.
Problem:My upload runs, but I'm not getting the data in some of the fields that I should be. It is being uploaded to the wrong fields.
I had to add more columns to the Oracle tables in order to capture the data coming from FoxPro. These columns were/are in FoxPro. In the past, they were not needed in Oracle. I was using the FILLER command in the Control files to skip these. Now they are needed in Oracle. The new columns get added to the end of the table in Oracle, so they are not in the same exact order they are in FoxPro. It is these new columns that are not getting the correct data.
I've learned in the past that I need the fields/columns in the control files to match the order they are in the FoxPro tables from which the data comes. My Question is, Does the Oracle table column order have to match the Control file column order. Like so: FoxPro table column order = control file column order = Oracle table column order

I want to load a delimited file that contains many records which contained within the table where I'm going to load a date type field and I need to do this by concatenating three fields
field1 = 1 - this is the day
field2 = 11 - this corresponds to the month
field3 = 5 - this corresponds to the year
I need is in the field Save as type date 01/11/2005 i don´t know how to do it but I tried as follows but I get error loading.
"TO_DATE (TO_CHAR (: field1 ||'/'|| DECODE (: field2, 1, 'JAN', 2, 'FEB', 3, 'MAR', 4, 'APR', 5, 'MAY', 6 , 'JUN', 7, 'JUL', 8, 'AUG', 9, 'SEP', 10, 'OCT', 11, 'NOV', 12, 'DEC': field2 )||'/'|| : field3)) "

I am having a similar problem like above ONLY in UNIX box where my datafile is delimited by "|". The last field is ITM_CMNT declared as VARCHAR2(60) in Oracle. When I have exactly 60bytes in the last field it rejects the record saying actual 61 and max allowed is 60. If i reduce it to < 60bytes then it is stored as a value enclosed with double quotes. The enclosing double quote is on the next line.
"PROC,RAM,FLPY,HD,ACT MTX CLR DSP,D/PCMCIA,TRKBAL,LIT ION BA"
Expected: the one below is exactly 60bytes.
PROC,RAM,FLPY,HD,ACT MTX CLR DSP,D/PCMCIA,TRKBAL,LIT ION BAT

INFILE *

I am trying to migrate a table to a new table that has the field sequence changed and also has a new field added. My main question is if it is possible to have datapump add values to the new field in the target table.For example:
-original table has fields a, b, d, c
-new table has fields b, c, d, a, e
I want to load the new table and also include adding values for field e. In this case, field e is a year field, so it should be loaded with '2012'..Does datapump have the ability to do this? Is reorganizing the fields going to cause me any problems? We are on oracle version 11.2.0.3

I have 2 questions, because they can be inter-related I am posting it in a single post. These queries are related to Oracle(PL\SQL).
1. I am trying to increase the size of a field in a table which has almost 2 million records and the query for alteration runs for almost and hour and rollsback, wondering is there a better way of doing it.
2. I have modified the size of a field in a table from Varchar2(10) to Varchar2(20), now when I tried to rollback the modification it is not letting me to change the size from Varchar2(20) to Varchar2(10). No data has been inserted after the modification.

I have a horrible problem with EBS (actually, all problems with EBS are horrible) and I think I am stuck because of my ignorance of Forms. if I use terms that are not correct in the Forms world. The form consists of a number of named "blocks" and each block consists of a number of named "fields", not all of which are visible. I need to find the source of the data values in one of these fields. I have searched every table for a column of that name, also all the views and stored PL/SQL that I think might be relevant, but I can no find no mention of a column or variable with the same name as the field. The name does not get a hit in the online EBS tech ref manual, and only two ancient and irrelevant hits in MOS.
My question is: What are the possible sources of data for a field in a form? Have I missed any?

In the database we use for transfer articulation, there are numerous tables delivered with the product. The institution decided not to use certain fields, and all instances of those fields have no data. In other words, there might be a field in the table called INSTCD, but no records in the table have ever inserted any data into that particular field. In the table there are thousands of records, and we don't necessarily know which of the fields have never been used (no list has been retained and no one who initially was involved in the decisions is available to ask), as there are multiple fields in each table. How can I write a query that pulls only the fields in the table that contain data. In the example below, the SHRTRIT table contains a field called ACTIVITY_DATE, but there is no data in any record in that particular field, so I don't want it to show up on the output. In this particular case, I KNOW not to pull this field in a SELECT, but in a case where there might be 130,000 records and I DON'T know if a field has records in it, how could I do that?
if the question I'm asking doesn't make sense and I'll attempt to word it better.
create table SHRTRIT
(
SBGI_CODE VARCHAR2(6) NOT NULL,
SBGI_DESC VARCHAR2(10),
ACTIVITY_DATE VARCHAR2(10)
)

I developed a custom Form using Form Builder 6i. This Form has selection criteria (data to be entered in a couple of fields) and a "Find" Button, which queries the data (based on the selection criteria) and populates all fields on the Form.
This Form has a couple of "Required" fields in its search criteria section. When data is not populated in any of the Required fields and "Find" button is clicked upon, Form raises an exception and pops up a message indicating the user 'to enter data in mandatory fields'. However, this message keeps popping up and would not stop.
So, I'm not able to proceed with querying data on my custom Form. I had to kill the session and reconnect to front end to overcome this issue.

I know how to append fields to text, but how do I deal with the variable length? I want to place text on a report and inside the text I have data from two different fields. It works great except that my fields are 35 characters long. If the data fills the entire field it looks great, if the data is only 10 characters long, I have a huge gap between the end of the data and the text that follows. How do I fix this?

I'm trying to change the attributes on a display where the info is gathered via a routine that fills the data block with info. I've searched and tried using 'set item instance property' in several places within the data block using different triggers but still doesn't work.
No errors are encountered or shown. Attributes aren't changed based on a small test condition.

using SQLLDR: Looking for a control file solution to move past or bypass extra data fields which are not on destination table. Basically if you have 8 tab delimited fields(terminated by ' ') on a data record; but only need to load 5 of the values from the delimited record; is there a way to ignore/bypass the not needed data. Obviously, the answer would be to massage the data at the OS and removed the 3 unnecessary fields.
However my hands are tied by volume,time, and compliancy. I am familiar with using 'FILLER' for the reverse scenario; but not where you have more data available on the record then exists on the table.

Iam working with a form thru which I need to port nearly 7 laks of data into table. Earlier I had created a form thru which I read the data from the text file and inserting into the table. This was taking lot of time and as well after an hour or so, after porting 50k rows the program got terminated and shows an error like Network Inturpted.
So I have decided to use some other option and found that I can use either SQL Loader or external Tables. I had choosed SQL loader option and created a form along with a control file and batch file based on some forum posting.
Control File
LOAD DATA
INFILE 'D:SethuPayClock DumpCLK_050611clock_dump.txt'
INTO TABLE ARS_CLOCK_DUMP
(TDATE POSITION(01:08) DATE 'YYYYMMDD',
VER POSITION(09:10) CHAR,
EMPNO POSITION(11:15) CHAR,
TTIME POSITION(16:19) CHAR,
BRADD POSITION(21:22) CHAR
)
[code]....
With above all the form works perfectly in local system which is the development evironment and also client PC. And I was able to port those 7 laks rows in 3 miniutes. Now the real problem, If I need to move this to live application server, I had to move three files [ FMB, CTL and BAT ]. I have some problems in moving the other two files to the application server [ waiting for approval from bozz ]. And more over, I had to hard code the user id and password in the BAT file, i think which may not be a best practice and also not safe.
So I have decieded to do all from forms and found same sort of script. I took it and modified to my needs.Code from form's when button pressed which is not working
declare
usid varchar2(10):= get_application_property(username);
pwd varchar2(10):= get_application_property(password);
db varchar2(10):= get_application_property(connect_string);
msqlldr varchar2(300);
ctrl_filename varchar (300) := 'D:SethuPayModifiedFormsars_clock_dump.ctl';
data_filename varchar2(300) := 'D:oracleproduct10.2.0db_1BINabc.dat';
fname varchar2(1000);

How can I migrate my production database using data pump? I have full data pump export from target but I don’t know how to import, whether the scheme after scheme, full import, do I need to first create manually tablespaces on destination, whether to exclude the index, constraint, statistics?

All these special characters have some meaning.
eg: '°' specifies the above column needs to be multiplied by -1
'¶' specifies the above column needs to be multiplied by -0.1
what changes need to be made in loader utility for the same? Also, will there be any change in the utility if I am using higher version of oracle?
