Server Utilities :: Field / Record Terminator - Trailing Null Col

Oct 7, 2010

I need to load a file with fields separated by '|^|' and at end of each record has '||*||'.

So in my ctl file what do i mention ? fields terminated by '|^|' ? for the record termination wat should I say?
Should I still mention 'trailing null col' in my ctl file...?

Sample data file:
Name|^|Age|^|city||*||
john|^|33|^|||*||
james|^||^|nyc||*||
ken|^|44|^|
washington||*||

the fields are properly terminated with |^| and the records are terminated with ||*||. Is it true that a file with |^| as field terminator cannot be loaded with sqlldr?

Precompilers, OCI & OCCI :: Data Lost After Adding Null Terminator For VARCHAR Data Received From Database

Dec 13, 2010

We are migrating a proc application as described below.

Old Env: UNIX
Old DB: Oracle 8i

New Env: Linux
New DB: Oracle 11g

New modules are successfully compiled in Linux environment. But we are facing issues in writing the output of VARCHAR datatype to a file.

find below the extract of code.
EXEC SQL BEGIN DECLARE SECTION;
varchar mcolmnvarchar[4];
EXEC SQL END DECLARE SECTION;

EXEC SQL DECLARE crs CURSOR FOR
SELECT NVL(colmn,' ') FROM table1

memset(mcolmnvarchar.arr,'�',4); //Was added for only Linux migration. Not present in unix env.

EXEC SQL FETCH c1 INTO :mcolmnvarchar;

cout << "Data at Stage one"<< mcolmnvarchar << endl;
mcolmnvarchar.arr[mcolmnvarchar.len]='�';
cout << "Data at Stage two"<< mcolmnvarchar << endl;
fprintf(fptr,"%-4s",mcolmnvarchar.arr);

Above code works absolutely fine in Unix env with Oracle 8i. But with Linux env & Oracle 11g it is not working. No compilation or run time errors. Data at Stage one prints the output of database properly. But after null terminator code, Data at Stage two statement prints without any value. Value is lost after null terminator code.

Server Utilities :: How To Associate Header Record To Its Corresponding Detail Record

May 16, 2012

I am loading data file using SQL Loader in TOAD 10.5.1.3 in Oracle 10g using the control file below and loading data into 2 tables post1.thead and post1.tdetl. THEAD contains item level transaction and TDETL is detail level when a transaction has a discount or promo attached to for that item. When the

LOAD DATA
APPEND

(file_type POSITION(1:5)CHAR,

[code]....

A particular THEAD value may have 0, 1 or many TDETL corresponding values.below is a sample data file. When the position 21 in the TTAIL has a value of 1 or 2, then we know that there is a promo or discount applicable to the ITEM (THEAD).

Server Utilities :: Loader Loading Some Garbage Characters At The End Of The Data Field

Mar 25, 2011

After exporting some data to excel, I noticed that on one row all the columns shifted over some. So I queried this record in the database and noticed that the ADDRESS field has some unknown characters at the end of it. They are little squares. I think they are TABS.

2630 LINDEN BLVD, APT. #8G(2 squares are in here)

ADDRESS_1 "TRIM(:ADDRESS_1)",

Besides trimming the data, is there some other function I can use to clean up the address further?

SQL & PL/SQL :: Null Value On Field Use In Join Condition?

Aug 5, 2011

I have encountered a weird (or maybe not weird at all but unexplainable from my point of view) behavior from Oracle. I have simplified the example as much as possible

This query returns 2 rows as expected:

with edited as
(select F101, e_id from (select 'Test' F101, -1 e_id from dual
union all select 'Test1' F101, -2 e_id from dual) input_clob),
distinct_intermediate_edited as

[code]...

But this one (with only one row in input_clob) returns one row (as expected) but with null on e_id (why?):

with edited as
(select F101, e_id from (select 'Test' F101, -1 e_id from dual) input_clob),
distinct_intermediate_edited as
(select e.f101, e.e_id
from edited e

[code]...

If I change the join condition with and nvl(e.E_id,0) = nvl(e_id,0) both cases work as I expect (e_id = -1 for second query) but I simply want an explication for this behavior.

Foreign Key Would Be Populated On Each Record / Other Would Be Null

Mar 22, 2013

I have a central entity Address. I have other entities that could have many addresses (Organization, Person for eg). The relation between Organization and Address is one to many and the relation between Person and Address is also one to many.When I modelled it, I ended up having two foreign keys in Address (Organization ID and Person ID).The question that is being raised by the client is "As only one of the foreign key would be populated on each record, the other would be null". The client is not comfortable having nullable foreign keys as they won't be able to maintain integrity. One of the requirement is that No orphan records in Address. By modeling the way above, there are chances for having some orphanned records. I tried to explain that this would be controlled by the program to ensure that no orphan records would be there but their question is that what if someone goes directly and enters a record in Address table without any foreign key value (I dont know who would have an insert/update access on the tables other than the dba's).

I am trying to get some pros and cons on using the nullable foreign keys.

I need only the Page from the above records.For example if i take this record

'CODE#NSWLR#YEAR#1985#PAGE#158#VOL#4##' -- I need to extract only the Page from this like 158.

If the record doesn't contain Page then i need to update as null.

Application Express :: BIP Report Using Webservice - Could Not Convert Null To Bean Field

Sep 13, 2012

I have a BI Suite implementation on one server. And a database with ApEx on another server.

I want to call a BIP report from within my ApEx application using the webservices (runReport) available in BIP 11g.

I used soapUI to test my webservice. Result : OK

When called from within ApEx, ApEx gives me a succes message but the report isn't generated. Instead the console on the BIP server shows the following error:

<Sep 12, 2012 10:28:37 PM BST> <Error> <org.apache.axis.encoding.ser.BeanPropert
yTarget> <BEA-000000> <Could not convert null to bean field 'sizeOfDataChunkDown
load', type int>

'sizeOfDataChunkDownload' is a field of the webservice that is left empty. That indeed is the only difference between my soapUI test and the ApEx situation. In soapUI I removed all empty fields. In ApEx this does not seem possible...

Some extra information:

- the webservice is created on this WSDL : /xmlpserver/services v2/ReportService?wsdl

- it's defined as a SOAP v2

- no basic authentication

- the reports are defined in the BIP environment; not in ApEx

Connect By Level Using Field From Record Instead Of Constant?

May 20, 2011

I am generating a start date, stop date, count and frequency from data in one of my tables.

The result is as follows:

Id,RecType,RecCode,PeriodCode,StartDate,StopDate,Cnt,Freq

10S1M6/1/200711/30/20081812
10S2M11/30/20089/30/20091012
10S2Q11/30/20108/18/201134
10L8A6/1/20079/30/200931
10L8A11/30/20108/18/201111

From this data, I need a record for each individual month,quarter,etc.:

select y.*,MonthNo,Add_Months(StartDate,MonthNo*Frequency) from (
... Code to generate data ...
) y,(select rownum MonthNo from dual connect by level <= Cnt)

This returns ORA-00904: "CNT": Invalid Identifier. I don't get an error if I use a constant:

select y.*,MonthNo,Add_Months(StartDate,MonthNo*Frequency) from (
... Code to generate data ...
) y,(select rownum MonthNo from dual connect by level <= 3)

How can I get this to work using the "CNT" value instead of a constant?

Maximum Of VALUE Field Of Each Record With Different POINT-NUMBER?

Oct 21, 2011

I need to get the maximum value of the VALUE field of each record with different POINTNUMBER, then do an update on the 2nd table.

table 1
UTCTime TIMESTAMP (6)
INTEGER POINTNUMBER
FLOAT VALUE (126)
INTEGER TLQ

table 2 (idem structure)
UTCTime TIMESTAMP (6)
INTEGER POINTNUMBER
FLOAT VALUE (126)
INTEGER TLQ

Where POINTNUMBER is six thousand different values My query only returns me the maximum of a single record:

SELECT * FROM table1 WHERE value = (SELECT MAX (value) FROM table2);

And the update:
UPDATE table2 SET to a.value = (SELECT MAX (b.value) FROM table2 b);

so does on a single record.That needed to maximize each pointnumber different? I can use a cursor to do this easier?

Insertion should first make a one-time, and then updates every 1 hour

SQL & PL/SQL :: Create Record Type With Rowtype And One Field

Oct 11, 2012

using as template this table:

CREATE OR REPLACE
TYPE REC IS RECORD (
R1 T1%ROWTYPE,
R2 NUMBER
);

I'm trying to create one RECORD type with all the columns from table T1 + one new field R2. But gives me an error.

The point to use T1%ROWTYPE and not to hardcode the columns from T1, is due to if we add a new column to T1, is created when is executed again RECORD definition and not to add the column.
