I have text file with data in UNIX. I want to clear only records(make empty the file) using UTL_FILE..
I know we can remove the text file from UNIX and create file again with same name...
Is there any other way??
I was wondering can i check if a text item in another block is empty when a user try to create a record using a button in another block.
/*creating a program that will check to see if the customer id in the customer block is null it will then display the the stop alert and tell the user that he/she cant create a new order without having a selected a customer*/
--this is the block_item im checking to see if it null
IF (:customer.c_id) = NULL THEN
DISPLAY_ORD_STOP_ALERT;
GO_ITEM('CUSTOMER.C_ID');
[code]....

I have a data in text file which has around 7 laks lines. I need to import those data into a table in oracle then do some process.
Since this job is done by end user, i have created a form with the following process.
Create a single text file from multiple flat files in client system. Run the application from the application server [ which is unix based ] once the text file is uploaded to the server, read the text file line by line and insert into the table.
The above process works perfectly in test eniviroment which I have as stand alone system. When I move this to application server and execute it, the session got killed after an hour and I got network inturpted error.
I would like to know is there any other method instead of reading line by line and insert into a table. I do not want to use the tools like sql Loader etc since I do not want my user to do lot of things.
I need to read data from text file(located on application or db server or on some other server, however path is known to me.) and then append some data in it.
Data will be read and written on daily basis so i want to clear all data on date change.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI want to get all the column values in a table and save them into a text file.Beside UTL_FILE, is there any other method which will result better performance in writing to text file?
noted that the data does exist 32k.
We have around 30 million rows in a table which we are extracting through UTIL_FILE and sending this file to somewhere to other systems.
But this extraction taking too much time.
Is there any way out to optimize this process or any new stuff.

I have to pick a text file created in UNIX server directory and send it as an mail attachment.The problem here is, when the file size exceeding more than 10 MB. I think there is a way to zip a file in UNIX with some .gz extension or something like that.

how to get rid of the first EMPTY line generated by SQL*Plus when spool'ing to a file.
I tried using set pagesize 0 and while that get rid of the empty blank line, it also disabled the heading ...
Currently using sed as a work around. But unfortunately, can't use sed on Windows?
set pagesize 200
set heading on
set trimspool on
set lines 200
set verify off
set echo off
set feedback off
[code].......
As mentioned, using pagesize 0 remove the blank line but I also lost the heading.
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?
I need to develop a form which has to read and display the contents of a text file that is stored in the Unix system where the Oracle data base is installed. So basically its the database server and not the forms application server.
1. Create an external table for the file everytime when the form is loaded by dropping and re creating the table and base the data block in the form on that table and execute_query and display the contents.
2. I am confused whether to use webutil or utlfile packages to read from the file and display on the screen as the file resides in the database or Oracle server and not forms application server or client machine.
I have a file which is placed on a certain location on unix server. I want to write a code which picks up that file and emails it to certain recipients.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI am using Oracle 9i and Unix on my system and trying to execute a UNIX shell command through external procedure in C.I created a shared lib (libextproc.so) for the following function.
int sysrun(char *command)
{
return system(command);
}
This function runs fine when caled through a driver function in C, meaning that the shared lib is fine.In PL/SQL, I have used the following method to invoke a UNIX command:-
create or replace library shell_lib as '/home/ECETRAonsite/oracle/OraHome1/lib/libextproc.so';
/
create or replace function sysrun (syscomm in varchar2)
return binary_integer
as language C
name "sysrun"
library shell_lib
parameters(syscomm string);

Now when I call this PL/SQL function to invoke the command, it is run succesfully but does not create the file.

View 20 Replies View RelatedI want to load data to a table and from a simple file text, using a Vb.net application which will connect to a oracle 10g , or a SqlServer or a MySql database, depending the params.
When i connect to a SqlServer Database i use the sql command "BULK INSERT CODPOSTAL2 FROM file.txt with( DATAFILETYPE = 'char',FIELDTERMINATOR = ';', ROWTERMINATOR = '
')"m" and it works fine.
With a DB Mysql i use "LOAD DATA INFILE file.txt INTO TABLE CODPOSTAL2 FIELDS TERMINATED BY ';''" and also works.
My problem is with Oracle. I tried the same example as MySql, but it gaves the error "wrong" ou "unknown command". I also tried in Sql*Plus but it seems to not recognised the command "LOAD".
Another thing, i can't use the Oracle Loader, it must be like this.
i want to convert an excel file into text and then into oracle table.
