Database: Oracle 8i
My query is:
I have large data in the one table(approx. 2GB and above). I want to load the data in one flat file.
When i use spool - it is loading half data and remaining it is corrupting. In UNIX, i kept .sql file and with that i am exporting in .dat file. How to export the large data into flat file(.dat). is there any way to load command which wil be used in UNIX.
I am migrating data from a Solid Database to Oracle, I am using Flat Files to do that.
1.- I download the data to flat files from Solid
2.- I move the files to Oracle server
3.- I upload the data to Oracle
Now, I have done the 90% of the data base, but I have found some tables that has description columns and in this description the users writes enters, so when I try to upload the data to Oracle SQL loader cannot recognize this characters.
Example:
'25','0.','5.','0.','0.','0.','0.','0.','0.','0.','0.','0.','0.','',''
'26','0.','2.','0.','0.','0.','0.','3.','0.','0.','0.','0.','0.','',''

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 want to spool CLOB data into flat file ?

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

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:

v_sql_count NUMBER := 0;
v_error VARCHAR2 (4000);
v_new_file UTL_FILE.file_type;

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:

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.
I am trying to import data from below content.

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'

Load the selected records from the flat file using SQL*Loader.
I have a flat file it's having 100 records, I want to load first 10 records from the file using SQL*LOADER.
I need to take only backup of schema objects with out data using exp (export) into .sql file and need to run that .sql file in the target.because I dont have exp/imp privs on target database.
NOTE: using only export (exp) not data pump.
I have a set of store procedures that will construct the header and data dynamically. This procedure will return a CURSOR.Now, I will write a new procedure to export data file by calling the above store procedure.
a) is it possible for me to retain the dynamic header when I export the data out ?
b) use 1 export data file procedure to handle it without coding for each data file I want to export.
I have been testing manually creating the header. I am assigning the header string myself.
UTL_FILE.PUTF(fHandler, header_string);
and then use a cursor to loop through the data for each store procedure.
UTL_FILE.PUTF(fHandler, record_string);

I am loading data from a .csv file to table. I tried to load by using EXTERNAL TABLES
Is there a way to specify null in external tables loaded if specific column has no data in the external file(CSV) being loaded ?
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
E.g. of the spool utility file :
@echo off
SET dbuser=XX@YY
SET dbpw=xxxx
echo %date% - %time% - Start > %1%log.txt
echo START
sqlplus -s %dbuser%/%dbpw% @spool_utility.sql %1>%1.txt
echo %date% - %time% - Done >> %1%log.txt
echo DONE
E.g. of the spool_utility.sql
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 am using SQLTools 1.5 for writing Oracle SQL scripts.
I have to import data from excel file to oracle database. How can I do it?
Also how can I export data from Oracle database to Excel file?
If I use the conventional path will SQL*Loader process a data file sequentially from top to bottom? I have a file comprised of header and detail records with no value found in the detail records that can be used to relate to the header records. The only option is to derive a header value via a sequence (nextval) and then populate the detail records with the same value pulled from the same sequence (currval). But for this to work SQL*Loader must process the file in the exact same sequence that the data has been written to the data file. I've read through the 11g Oracle® Database Utilities SQL*Loader sections looking for proof that this is what will happen but haven't found this information and I don't want to assume that SQL*Loader will always process the data file records sequentially.

every week i need to extract data from these tables into excel files and i need to save those in shared drive for team use.
Currently i am connecting to database every time running sql query and manually exporting that latest data to excel and saving that as excel files in (G: eamcommon) folder with specific name.
output format should be :
excel (.xls)
file names should - countries.xls,sites.xls,states.xls

i heard that we could create batch file to do this task and also we could use oracle procedure to do this task. but not sure which one is the best option.
I am struggling with a simple data load using sqlldr
Ref: I am running Oracle 11.2 on Linux 5.7.
===========================
Here is my table:
SQL> desc ntwkrep.CARD
Name Null? Type
[code]...
Looking at the actual data and counting the characters for the "REALIZES" column data, I see that it is roughly slightly over 1000 characters.
So, attempting various ideas to fix the problem, I tried changing nls_length_semantics to "char" and recreating the table, but this still didn't work and still got the same data load errors on the same rows.
Then, I changed nls_length_semantics back to byte and recreated the table again.This time, I altered the table manually as:
SQL> ALTER TABLE ntwkrep.CARD MODIFY (REALIZES VARCHAR2(4000 char));
Table altered.
SQL> desc ntwkrep.card
