Server Administration :: Create A New Control File?
Jul 12, 2012
I am trying to create a new controlfile. I used "alter database backup controlfile to trace;" and then I copied and pasted the contents of the trace file into the .sql file. My sql script is
CREATE CONTROLFILE SET DATABASE "FIVESTAR" RESETLOGS NOARCHIVELOG
MAXLOGFILES 16
MAXLOGMEMBERS 3
MAXDATAFILES 100
MAXINSTANCES 8
MAXLOGHISTORY 292
[code]....
Actually, the name of my database was 'STAR' and I changed it to "FIVESTAR" int this .sql script. Now when I run this script with SQL> @ <path of my sql script>, it gives me the following errors:
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-01503: CREATE CONTROLFILE failed
ORA-01504: database name 'FIVESTAR' does not match parameter db_name 'STAR'

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'm having a problem with SQL loader and the control file. I want to load a delimited file. The script will eventually be automated where the file name is passed in to the script, it's not a static name.
It's a simple SQL loader Unix script that I have created as follows
Unix file called test_load
# Auto Load
#
#
export data_file=/dev/test_$1$2.csv;
export ORACLE_HOME=/u01/oracle/product/10.2.0;
export ORACLE_SID=XXX;
export PATH=$PATH:$ORACLE_HOME/bin;
sqlldr userid=XXX/XXX data=$data_file
control=/dev/cntrl/test.ctl
errors=99999
bad=/dev/bad/test_$1$2_$$.bad
log=/dev/logs/test_$1$2_$$.log
the top of my control file is as follows
load data
truncate
into table test
fields terminated by "|"
when record_type = 'AA'
(
running at the prompt ./test_load myload 20100319
The following error occurs
SQL*Loader-350: Syntax error at line 5.
Expecting "(", found keyword when.
when record_type = 'AA'
^
I believe the format of my control file is correct but for some reason it won't load.

I am loading data using sqlldr command in UNIX to an oracle table and want to concatenate timestamp to a file name in the "create_file_name" column in the code below.
I have the below code within the control file..
LOAD DATA
TRUNCATE
INTO TABLE TABLEA
TRAILING NULLCOLS
(
file_type POSITION(1:5) CHAR,
business_date POSITION(16:23) DATE "YYYYMMDD",
create_file_name "FILE_NAME" EXPRESSION "SELECT TO_CHAR(CURRENT_TIMESTAMP(3), 'YYYYMMDDHH24MISS') FROM DUAL")
The load fails with SQL Loader error: "Expecting valid column specification, ",", ")", found keyword EXPRESSION found instead of column. How the timestamp to a filename can be appended?

I am using perl script to dynamically generate the control file.If I have data in the control file as well as in the datafile, how would i write the control file in that case. Is the below one correct?
load data
INFILE '*'
INFILE '/export/home/test/test.csv'
INSERT INTO TABLE EMP fields
terminated by "," optionally enclosed by '"'
trailing nullcols
( empno, empname, sal, deptno )
[code]....
Is there any way that if my control file contains half of the data and my data file contains the other half of the data can i club this data into a logical record in the control file to populate the DB?
My exact 2nd requirement is, my DB contains 5 cols and for 1 col the data is common(countryName) which i have to pass to the control file dynamically and the .csv file contains the data for the other four cols. How could i combine these in the ctrl file and populate the DB?
so if the DB contains CountryName, empid, ename, sal and dept..I will get the CountryName to the ctrl file and csv contains the data for empid, ename, sal and dept. How would i combine these data into a logical record and populate the DB?

I have a control file like following:
LOAD DATA
INFILE *
INTO TABLE member
REPLACE
FIELDS TERMINATED BY '|' OPTIONALLY ENCLOSED BY '"'
(
control_id,
name,
address
)
problem is that control_id value is not in data file and I have to assign to each row the same value generated from sequence or from unix variable.
For example, after I run sqlldr, I have to have records in the table like following:
control_id name address
---------- ---- -------
1847 Charlie 250 yonge st
1847 Peter 5 Brookbanks dr
1847 Ben 123 King st
.
.
.
How do I do that?
