I want to extract data from a table and write into a txt file using UTL_FILE utility.I have written the below query. I am able to see query is returning data.But it is not creating file and writing data into it.
CREATE OR REPLACE DIRECTORY DOC_PATH AS '/apps/orarpt/SJDEV/utl'
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE xxcfi_outbound_test (errbuf OUT VARCHAR2,
retcode OUT VARCHAR2)
AS
CURSOR emp_cur
[code].....
I'm trying to read the data from flat file and write data into multiple files based on the condition. The value of each line is checked with the Flag Table (Id NUMBER, FlagType VARCHAR(25), Flag CHAR(1)), If the Flag is True then new file has to be created and corresponding line has to be moved into new file otherwise it has to continue with the same file.
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE rw_demo (File_In VARCHAR2, File_out VARCHAR2) IS
InFile utl_file.file_type;
OutFile utl_file.file_type;
vNewLine VARCHAR2(4000);
i PLS_INTEGER;
j PLS_INTEGER := 0;
SeekFlag BOOLEAN := TRUE;
[code].........
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.
I am trying to write data to a network shared folder. When I write to a local file it works perfectly. Below is my procedure.
CREATE OR REPLACE procedure nbpsbp_file as
type r_cursor is ref cursor;
refr r_cursor;
tab_name varchar2(20):= null;
tab_name1 varchar2(20) := null;
tab_name2 varchar2(20) := null;
[code]....
When I execute the above procedure, it gives me the following error
ORA-29283: invalid file operation
ORA-06512: at "SYS.UTL_FILE", line 475
ORA-29283: invalid file operation
ORA-06512: at "NBPSBP_FILE", line 36
ORA-06512: at line 1
I have also set the parameter utl_file_dir = '\10.16.10.225 emp' When I set the utl_file_sir to a local folder, for example, c: emp, and use the same path in UTL_FILE.FOPEN, then it works fine and writes the desired output to text file. But when I give it a network address, it raises the above error.
I Got a scnario like a upload file contains
1.Header(Contains the File Name,Branch Name,MIS date)
2.Body(Customer Details)
3.Footer (File Name,Contians Total Number of Records and Number of Customers)
Like
CustomerDet_11-12-2013.csv,Chennai,11-12-2013
101,AAA,Savings,'M',10000
102,BBB,Current,'O',2000
103,CCC,Deposit Acct,'F',3000
CustomerDet_11-12-2013.csv,3,15000
How to handle this scnario through UTL_File
I have an application that creates files using the utl_file package. It works fine but one of the lines in the file should hold the number of bytes in the file (on a line formatted like 'FileSize: 2104'). Unfortunately this line is not the last line of the file and the lines that follow it are variable in length.
My approach therefore is as follows:
1. Write the 'FileSize: ' line during file creation.
2. Write the remaining lines of data to the file (but don't close it).
3. Use utl_fgetattr to find the file size.
4. Go back and find the 'FileSize' line I need to update, using get_line to read it into the buffer.
5. Append the filesize (plus the number of characters that the variable I use to store the filesize value) to the buffer string.
6. Write the line back to the file using put_line.
However I keep getting invalid file operation errors however I try to re-access the file...
PROCEDURE setUtlFileSize (pFileName IN VARCHAR2,
pFileHandle IN utl_file.file_type) IS
vbFileExists BOOLEAN;
viFileLen NUMBER;
viFileBlockSize NUMBER;
vsFileRecord VARCHAR2(2000);
[code].......
This gives me the following output.... (for two files)... currently I am using some generic exception handling just to show me the error.
File Length: 2106
File Position: 0
-29283,ORA-29283: invalid file operation
File Length: 497
File Position: 0
-29283,ORA-29283: invalid file operation
Process exited.
Two things here concern me: The File Position suggests that the current offset position is set to the start of the file... but since I had not closed or performed any other operation since the last put_line and fflush (which are used to add lines to the file) I had expected that the offset position would be the same as the file length?
Secondly: Even if the position had been reset to the start of the file I don't understand why the get_line gives me the oracle error.

I'm creating a file using UTL_FILE.FOPEN and UTL_FILE.PUTF
But I don't know the file I created is in which encoding ASCII, UTF-8, EBCDIC etc.
1.) How can I create files in my desired encoding using UTL_FILE?
2.) Does UTL_FILE use database encoding? If yes then how to find out database encoding?
3.) Which encoding is used by UTL_FILE by default?

Is there a way to read Excel file using UTL_FILE package ?
Like our usual method:
l_utlfile := utl_file.fopen(p_dir, p_filename, 'R',2000);
p_filename is event.xls
Or do we need to convert that file to .csv or .txt ?
We have a requirement to create a file using UTL_FILE package. so we tried to generate the file in directory at UNIX level,for example "/tmp" which means when we executing the stored procedure which in turn calls UTL_FILE package and create a file say "a.txt". On checking the permission for "a.txt", it shows as follows
-rw-r----- oracle dba a.txt
this means read and write for oracle user, read for dba group and no permission for other user.
our requirement is to have the following privileges at UNIX level.
-rw-r--r-- oracle dba a.txt
Is it possible to do at oracle level since the file is owned by oracle user or at UNIX level (with out logging to oracle user)?
Environment: UNIX AIX 6.1 and Oracle 11.2.0.3
I am using an Oracle 8i database.We intend creating a dbms_job that would run every 5 minutes. The job executes a script that would use utl_file to read two text files (a header file and detail file) from a particular directory and load the data into temporary tables. The naming convention of the files are Parts_Master_DD/MM/YY HH:MI:SS and Parts_Stats_DD/MM/YY HH:MI:SS. Both files to be stored in the same directory.
If the file name was constant ie. Parts_Master, Parts_Stats I would not have a problem. However with each file name now going to be unique, how do I handle this using utl_file. To add to my dilemma, within an hour more than one set of files could be piped to the directory to be read into the database.

I am trying to write the Turkey character stored in the table in VARCHAR2 to Unix file. But when the text is written to the unix, the characters are coming as junk.
The output of the file it is writing is as below after the execution

I was doing some R&D on my test machine trying to understand how controlfile works. I started up my db and then deleted (renamed)the controlfiles at OS level. I was expecting the db to shutdown. But it dint. Moreover when i queried select name from v$controlfile; it was still reflecting the old controlfile names. To check if it was still functioning, i created a new tablespace with one file and it also got created without any error.
What i dint understand is how could the db still be running when the control file was'nt there and new tablespace and datafile get created? As i understand, whenever a new file is created, an entry is made in the control file. But when control file dint exist where was the data about new tablespace and datafile written?
I have two same DB schema (same structure, same data) and I need to provide update in one of them when data in the other one is updated. It is singe direction only (we change data in DB Schema A and synchronize data in the DB Schema B; there is not opposite direction). Only small portion of data (compared to the size of DB Schema) might be changed or added this way.

View 6 Replies View RelatedWe have a p/slq procedure that reads a *.txt file using the UTL_FILE package. The contents of the file are then inserted into a database table.
At the end of the procedure we close the open file using UTL_FILE.FCLOSE.
There is a program (non-oracle)that attempts to move the file to a new location after being read into Oracle. The problem is that the application cannot move the file as the file is locked. ie message displays that the file is open and cannot be moved to a new location.
Is there anything else that we are missing besides the UTL_FILE.FCLOSE.

i am trying to read the file, for which i m using the following:
l_utlfile_hdr := utl_file.fopen(p_dir,'header_evnt.txt', 'R');
utl_file.get_line(l_utlfile_hdr, l_hdr_evnt);
it gets these three characters at the start of the line
l_hdr_evnt = 
So i saved header_evnt.txt as UTF-8, and used utl_file.fopen_nchar, utl_file.get_line_nchar, which got rid of first two characters, but still has ¿. How to get rid of that?
