PL/SQL :: NLS Parameters - Exporting Couple Of Views Into Flat File
Jan 11, 2013
In one of my projects I am exporting a couple of views into a flat file. The export utility is generic and uses dynamic sql to generate a flat file. We have a test environment and a production environment. On both the code is the same. We noticed that the output is different between the environments although it is supposed to be the same. If I export a view in the production I will get a record like this:
0020110107O0000000001|OTHER|07.01.11 08:06:00,296000|07.01.11 08:04:41,008000||0|0|EUR||NOT_FROZEN|MVOIP||IS_NORMAL_VERSION|MODIFIED|6863475590797607166|8648564326455689103|8011808169304472215|||CCP||||10000580||||DEKA|PS
In the test environment it will be like this:
0020110107O0000000001|OTHER|07-JAN-11 08.06.00.296000 AM|07-JAN-11 08.04.41.008000 AM||0|0|EUR||NOT_FROZEN|MVOIP||IS_NORMAL_VERSION|MODIFIED|6863475590797607166|8648564326455689103|8011808169304472215|||CCP||||10000580||||DEKA|PS
The code I am running is not changing any settings explicitly. It looks like this and it will be run as EXECUTE IMMEDIATE:
DECLARE
v_sql VARCHAR2 (32000);
v_sql_count NUMBER := 0;
v_error VARCHAR2 (4000);
v_new_file UTL_FILE.file_type;
BEGIN
[code]........
I also tried to do the following on production in order to get it equal to the test environment:
BEGIN
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'ALTER SESSION SET NLS_LANGUAGE = AMERICAN '
|| 'NLS_NUMERIC_CHARACTERS = ''.,'''
|| 'NLS_TIMESTAMP_FORMAT = ''DD-MON-RR HH.MI.SSXFF AM''';
END;
This would change the formatting for the timestamp columns for almost all files. Almost. Two of those files remain unchanged and still show the decimal separator from the old setting:
0020110107O0000000001|OTHER|07-JAN-11 08.06.00,296000 AM|07-JAN-11 08.04.41,008000 AM||0|0|EUR||NOT_FROZEN|MVOIP||IS_NORMAL_VERSION|MODIFIED|6863475590797607166|8648564326455689103|8011808169304472215|||CCP||||10000580||||DEKA|PSAny

Just wanted to export a clob field to .txt file, the maximum length of the clob field exceeds the limit 32767. So only partial data is exported to flat file. is there any way to export the entire data available in clob field irrespective of the size or lenght.
Length of the clob is 301829
l_file := UTL_FILE.fopen('LOCALDIR', '3.txt', 'w', 32767);
LOOP
DBMS_LOB.read (v_text_exp, l_amount, l_pos, l_buffer);
UTL_FILE.put(l_file, l_buffer);
l_pos := l_pos + l_amount;
END LOOP;

working on loading the data from flat file into table and below given is the validation condition given.I checked the UTL_FILE build in package but not able to figure out, how to identify the column header in flat file.
1. Skip the header, if any. The header is the first record, and starts with '000'
2. Skip the trailer, if any. The Trailer is the last record, and starts with '999'
3. Log an error, but continue if a line exceeds 512 characters
4. Log an error, but continue if a line is blank

Oracle 9i,
Window 7
My query is: I am exporting the file in .dat file. So i am using below query to export the record of one table. Below is the query and details:
Desc Test_zeros
Test_ID Number(10)
Test_number Number(8,
SELECT
LPAD(NVL(TO_CHAR(Test_ID),' '),11,' ')||
LPAD(NVL(TO_CHAR(Test_number),''),10,'0')
FROM
Test_zeros;
actual Records in database table
Test_ID Test_Number
151 -126.05
When i execute the query, this is what i am getting in the .dat file:
151000-126.05
So in the above i am getting the Test_number(000-126.05) but i have to get the value like(-000126.05).How is format the records like (-000126.05).

I am trying to build a data warehouse for Consumer Price Index and so I have downloaded data from the Bureau of Statistics.It is in excel format and since I am working with Oracle Warehouse Builder I have converted it to .csv file so that I can use it as a data source.
Question1: Is it practical to use single .csv file as a source of data for a data warehouse?
Question2: I have 3 dimensions tables and a fact table.The dimensions are one for the Region(as the date is organized in region,states etc),two is the consumer goods and services (as the data is organized in groups of goods and services, services/goods types) and finally time(year and month),
Now how am I going to do the mapping here?Is it possible to do a one to one mapping here as all data required by the dimensions is located in the .csv file.

I am migrating data from DB2 to Oracle. I used DB2 export to extract the data specifying lobsinfile clause. This created all the CLOB data in one file. So a typical record has a column with a reference to the CLOB data. "OUTFILE.001.lob.0.2880/". where OUTFILE.001.lob is the name specified in the export command and 0 is the starting position in the file and 2880 is the length of the first CLOB.
When I try to load this data using sqlldr I'm getting a file not found.Attached is a copy of the control file and output from testing
PS. I cant use the DB2 option LOBSINSEPFILES which creates a separate file for each CLOB column because the table has over 14 million rows....and creating 14 mil files causes OS inode problems...
Attached File(s)
sqlldr.txt ( 2.05K )
Number of downloads: 3

I have a text file called ReturnedFile.txt. This is a comma separated text file that contains records for two fields.... Envelope and Date Returned.
At the same time, I have a table in Oracle called Manifest. This table contains the following fields:
Envelope
DateSentOut
DateReturned
I need to write something that imports the ReturnedFile.txt into a temporary Oracle table named UploadTemp, and then compares the data in the Envelope field from UploadTemp with the Envelope field in Manifest. If it's a match, then the DateReturned field in Manifest needs updated with the DateReturned field in UploadTemp.
I've done this with SQL Server no problem, but I've been trying for two days to make this work with Oracle and I can't figure it out. I've been trying to use SQL*Loader, but I can't even get it to run properly on my machine.
I did create a Control file, saved as RetFile.ctl. Below is the contents of the CTL file:
LOAD DATA
INFILE 'C:OracleTestReturnedFile.txt'
APPEND
INTO TABLE UploadTemp
FIELDS TERMINATED BY "'"
(
ENVELOPE,
DATERETURNED
)
If I could get SQL*Loader running, below is the code I came up with to import the text file and then to do the compare to the Manifest table and update as appropriate:
sqlldr UserJoe/Password123 CONTROL=C:OracleTestRetFile.ctl LOG=RetFile.log BAD=RetFile.bad
update Manifest m set m.DateReturned =
(select t.DateReturned
from UploadTemp t
where m.Envelope = t.Envelope
*)
That's all I got. As I said, I can't find a way to test it and I have no idea if it's even close.

The problem here is , When you try to import to a table which has same columns . I skipped the first line when loading . The issue here is the second field is getting split in to the two columns . for e.g. :- Default goes to Child and Remaining goes to the Alias.
infarct there is a tab at the end of the each line. How to set the Sql loader settings correctly so that I can populated the end column in CHILD column only.!!!!
OPTIONS ( SKIP=1)
LOAD DATA
INFILE 'FlatFile.txt'
BADFILE ''FlatFile.bad'
DISCARDFILE ''FlatFile.dsc'
INTO TABLE "table"
FIELDS TERMINATED BY X'9'
OPTIONALLY ENCLOSED BY "''" TRAILING NULLCOLS
(PARENT,

I have a created a materialized view which is based on a view on remote database. Now how do I refresh the view.
Materialized view is created by
CREATE MATERIALIZED VIEW mv_employee_name
AS SELECT EMPLID, EMPL_NAME
FROM VEMPDATA@REMOTEDB
WHERE REGION = 'US';
I am wondering how the refersh happens or how do I specify the refresh clause.REFRESH FAST option is looking for VIEW LOG on the master table but in this case its a remote view, so I cannot create any object on remote db.
