PL/SQL :: Data To Existing File Using Spool Command?
Jul 19, 2012
I am calling a stored procedure from a shell script. This stored procedure is having a CLOB object as an OUT parameter. How to write the data in CLOB object a existing file which is there in my client system. Below is the shell and sql scripts.
Shell script
( echo "hello" ) > /root/file.txt
sqlplus -s $user/$pass@$tns @/root/proc.sql /root/file.txt << EOF
EOFSQL script
set pages 0
set trimspool off
[Code]...
spool offThis code writes contents of the OUT variable to file.txt, but my existing data ('hello') is lost.
I figured the it...Use append in the spool command...
I use sqplus in oracle to output the command output to text file .
I use below set environment variable.
SQL> set echo off; SQL> set linesize 3999; SQL> set feedback off; SQL> set feedback off; SQL> set termout off; SQL> set pagesize 0; SQL> spool mapping.txt select C_SIM_MSISDN,C_SIM_IMSI from RCA_SMART_CARD order by C_SIM_MSISDN;
In ouput file , it look like
SQL> select C_SIM_MSISDN,C_SIM_IMSI from RCA_SMART_CARD order by C_SIM_MSISDN; 060010007 10007 : : : SQL> spool off;
any setting or command that allow me to remove the first sql command line" SQL>select XXXX" and the last command "SQL>spool off" after start up the "spool mapping.txt"

I would like to use the Spool command to export data for other purposes within the application. We would like to use tab delimiter to seperate the fields but the client wants to know if the text datatype fields can be wrapped in double quotes along with the tab delimiter..
SQL>create table test (id number(2), first_name varchar2(15), last_name varchar2(15),var_no number(4), type varchar2(1),type_no number(12));
Table created.
SQL> insert into test values(1,'mary','ross',132,'S',12);
1 row created.
SQL> insert into test values(3,'Sue','Bill',432,'S',12);
1 row created.
I tried the below spool command to use tab delimited for all the fields but not sure how to wrap double quotes for only the text fields and also would to have the column names in the 1st row but don't seem to get the full column name in the csv file.
set echo off set feedback off set linesize 1000 set pagesize 4000 set trim on set headsep off set colsep '' (used tab between the quote)
spool test.csv select id,first_name,last_name,var_no,type,type_no from test; spool off
I am trying to import data in the following user : core_edb_20112_ct/local This user is already created , using the tablespace named C64_EDB_TS The dmp file resides in the location dir_core20112 ( e:\oracle)
I am getting the following error while i try to import

How to spool the Japanese characters in table using UTL_FILE. I tried with utl_file.fopen it's general,it's spooling. but i am not sure it this right way or not. in this case we need to change any character.
We can't see this characters in TOAD. Only possible in PLSQL developer
I am using something like below , the query runs fine in oracle SQL developer.But I would like to generate a text file by running the script, so I added the Spool command, and those settings,
I tried to run it in SQL developer or SQLplus, they both fail.In SQL developer: I got: ORA-00933: SQL command not properly ended00933. 00000 - "SQL command not properly ended"*Cause: *Action:Error at Line: 16 Column: 1,542In SQLPlus, but I got an error: SP2-0734: unknown command beginning "CteRace As..." - rest of line ignored.it seems it doesn't understand the common expression table. -- SQL code below:set heading offset feedback offset newpage noneset echo offset termout
To add application name in a spool file, I am using the below way.
sqlplus username/pwd@tns @xyz.sql APP0115
SQL> define appname="'&1'" Enter value for 1: APP0115 SQL> prompt &appname 'APP0115' SQL> spool &appname._html_jobs.csv; SP2-0768: Illegal SPOOL command Usage: SPOOL { <file> | OFF | OUT } where <file> is file_name[.ext] [CRE[ATE]|REP[LACE]|APP[END]]
But I am getting the above error in the spool file clause because of single quote printing infront of the spool file. But the method of defining a character is "'&1'". So I cannot avoid this single quote in the define clause.
'APP0115'
print the appname like APP0115 instead 'APP0115'.then only I can use this in the spool file clause?

I am having a hard time spooling a file and displaying special Brazilian characters, even though I can see them correctly in SQLDeveloper: LEOPOLDO COUTO DE MAGALHÃES JÚNIOR
Spool: LEOPOLDO COUTO DE MAGALH?ES JUNIOR
I've tried changing the NLS_LANG at the session level, but that cannot be done. I don't want to change the default language of my DB, but really need these characters to display correctly in a file.
I'm running a sql file in Unix (using SQLPLUS command) and i want the file output to be sent to local windows directory. I specified the windows directory name in my Spool command (Spool C:/<Directory Name> ) , But it is not working
Our Unix server is a FTP server but i don't want to FTP the spool file from unix to Windows as the spool file is Huge and it takes hours for the transfer to complete (and we have to run the script multiple times).
Is there a way i can have the spool file created in Local windows directory when i run my sql script in Unix?
how to create a file in a folder based on todays date. i need to know how to define a variable in sqlplus and assign a value to it.Here is the code below. The code gets executed without creating a spool file.
DEFINE _DATE = replace('C:\_sysdate_EU001.csv', '_sysdate_', TO_CHAR(SYSDATE, 'DD-MON-YYYY')) spool _DATE set serveroutput on size 100000 select * from dual; spool off
I would like to spool a clob column to a flag file, however some of the clob are greater than 32k, and I have to have the same record in a single line in the file. Is there any way to achieve this through spooling?
set heading off set feedback off set term off set long 1000000 set longchunksize 500000 set line 32767 set trimspool on set pagesize 50000 spool file.txt @--this is my select statement. spool off exit
I would like to store my sql query output into text file.Like for example:
select name from emp where emp_id=101; Here output should be in text file as swapna.
I dont want to use spool statement here,since If I use it,spool statement will also be printed in text file which is not my requirement.I just want to take only output.
I am trying to spool data from tables into flat files. I am using the following scripts to accomplish it
1. A cmd file (windows) that makes a call to a sql file 2. The SQL file which generates another query file at the run time, depending upon the table name passed to it 3. The run time query file , that executes the final query and spools the data into a txt file | delimited
For e.g. :
Actual command passed C:Spool_utilityspool_utility TABLE_NAME
set echo off SET newpage 0 SET feedback off SET linesize 32767 set pagesize 0 [code]........
The above file generates a table_name.sql file with the actual table name at run time and gets executed and the output is written to the table_name.txt file.
This works perfectly fine. But the issue is when someone passes some wrong table name or if there is a actual run time error while executing the query , the error with details itself itself gets written to the end spool file.
For e.g. : if i do this just to generate an error and execute it from command line, the query generates an error and writes the error to the spool file , but at the command prompt where I executed the command I do not see any error and the process seems to have run perfectly well
set xxx on xxx off as above
spool &1.sql;
Prompt Select * from &1 where rownum><10---this will cause the issue
spool off set termout ON @ &1
EXIT
Eg of spool file generated :
from table_name WHERE rownum><=10 * ERROR at line 62: ORA-00936: missing expression
My question is, is there any way i can capture this runtime error and return this error to my calling sql script spool_utility.sql and then propagate it to the calling command file and do some tasks for eg removing the spool file and writing the actual error to a log file . Basically any way to know at my OS calling level that the entire spooling operation was unsuccessful.
I have a master table A that has 10+ columns along with data and a configuration table B that has only 2 columns i.e table name and column name. For ex:-
Table_Name Column_Name --------- ---------- A C1 A C2 A C3
Now I need to write a sql script that should take the table A Columns defined in Table B and then based on the columns it should spool the columns output from Table A.
For above ex:- I need to spool the C1,C2,C3 columns data from Table A in to some Unix path using SQL SCRIPT.
I have few tables in Oracle 9i/10g , and they already have data in them. I am trying to migrate the data coming from various source systems into these Oracle tables. There is a chance that after loading I might get some unwanted data into these tables.
How do I remove just that data which I have loaded recently, and do not disturb the original data it already has.
Need to backup those tables and reload the data back if there is any problem, but I am looking at a different approach. I just don't want to change the existing system, as lot of users use the system.

I am in the process of recovering a database from an ASM environment to a non-ASM environment using RMAN. I've got a query to generate the command to RENAME the file:
When I run the query, this is an example of the result I get:
ALTER DATABASE RENAME FILE '+FRA/db1/onlinelog/group_3.259.766075171' TO '/u01/data/dev/group_3b.log'; ALTER DATABASE RENAME FILE '+DATA/db1/onlinelog/group_1.262.766075829' TO '/u01/data/dev/group_1a.log';
But I want to replace the "group" with "redo" and get the below result:
ALTER DATABASE RENAME FILE '+FRA/db1/onlinelog/group_3.259.766075171' TO '/u01/data/dev/redo_3b.log'; ALTER DATABASE RENAME FILE '+DATA/db1/onlinelog/group_1.262.766075829' TO '/u01/data/dev/redo_1a.log';

In my organization, I have a table and in that there is a column named "code".I want to restrict some insertion to that particular column. suppose that code column values are 12 and 1245 then i cant insert the value 12,1245, 1 ,124 and so on but i can insert 2 ,123,15,12456 and so on.
that means the new values should not be any substring of the existing data from left. making that column primary key and then I had a logic to compare the existing value which are longer than the new value and then to perform this.But dont know how to make it happen correctly.
