I am attempting to insert date data into a column using sqlldr...Here's the current format:
2010-03-01 00:20:19.277
So far, I haven't gotten anything to work. I would like to trim the .277 from the existing date. Here's my latest attempt:
birthdate DATE "to_date(substr(birthdate,1,19),'YYYY-MM-DD HH24:MI:SS')"
My control file is :
LOAD DATA
APPEND
INTO TABLE IPGITLREDATA WHEN ITL_REC_TYPE = 'D'
FIELDS TERMINATED BY ','
TRAILING NULLCOLS
(
[code].....
The data file might have a value of " D " instead of "D" for ITL_REC_TYPE and ITL_REC_TYPE is in the WHEN clause. How can I check for the trimmed value of ITL_REC_TYPE in the WHEN clause ?
I am using SQL Loader to load data from text file to DB. non-ASCII characters present in the text file is not uploaded correctly to DB.
Sample Data
test data üindex
Data in DB
test data ?index
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?
I have 15 million of records as csv, want to load through sqlloader Is sqlloader is the right option to load high volume of data? I have loaded with 2.5 lac records which has taken 4 mins to load.

I have another interesting SQL Loader issue. I have created 2 prior topics RE: "Trapping SQL Loader summary counts" and "Using Sql Loader issue". This new issue is along the same lines, but unfortunately the same input csv file has a date field that is has a different input format..
The 10G Oracle Table looks like...
---------------------------
CREATE TABLE PTLIVE.MODULE_CSV_LOADS
( MODULE_ID NUMBER (20),
MODULE_TAGNUMBER VARCHAR2(100),
MODULE_SERIAL_NUMBER NUMBER (20,0),
[code]...
My initial control file looks like...
-----------------
OPTIONS (SKIP=1)
load data
infile 'J:GrowerRound_ModulesCrop2011ProcessedBatch_2011Jul12_081326_746563.csv'
BADFILE 'J:GrowerRound_ModulesCrop2011LogsBatch_2011Jul12_081326_746563.bad'
[code]...
The input csv data file (for this example) contains 3 records. The first is a heading record that is skipped. The 2nd record
is correct and the field entitled "GMT Date" contains a value of
"16/05/2011". The 3rd record, however, has a date of "2011/5/18", which get rejected by the above control file, as the output SQL Loader log indicates...
Record 2: Rejected - Error on table PTLIVE.MODULE_CSV_LOADS, column DATEPICKED.
ORA-01861: literal does not match format string
Now we will be receiving literally hundreds of these csv files and in testing I have found that when I open the csv file (the default is Excel), and Excel must alter its display, as all date appear 100% okay. However, upon opening the csv file with Wordpad, I discovered the dates in the same file had these 2 different formats. So the control file was attempting to concat the input csv file "GMT Date" in one format with the input "GMT_TIME" to load the output value into the Oracle table column
"DATEPICKED" ... but different date formats cause some records to be rejected.
It would be super if SQl Loader could use a IF clause or an OR clause to execute loading the date in one or more input formats. We only expect the 2 foramts DD/MM/YYYY or YYYY/MM/DD....however, there could be 6 different combinations in theory.
I thought about writing a Function or Procedure to analyst the input date and output a standard one to load into the Oracle column

This sql is check a date field in the database for record which, if the date field is blank it should be a new record. Then the sql will assigned the current timestamp and stored to the new record. Otherwise, the sql will return the record timestamp for display.
Is there a way to detect bogus characters in the datafile?

I installed oracle 10G complete so I can have everything. But now I cannot run sql loader. I check my oracle devsuitehome directory and I cannot find sqlldr.exe
I need to install sql loader separately? I can't find sql loader installer on web.
SQL Loader - How to implement/Best solution.
I have 3 tables with their columns:
- MASTER_TABLE - MASTER_ID, DATA;
- PARENT_TABLE_A - MASTER_ID, DATA;
- PARENT_TABLE_B - MASTER_ID, DATA.
And the file I need to import has lines like the ones below:
MMMASTER_TABLE1
PAPARENT_TABLE_A1
PBPARENT_TABLE_B1
MMMASTER_TABLE2
PAPARENT_TABLE_A2
PBPARENT_TABLE_B2
MMMASTER_TABLE3
PAPARENT_TABLE_A3
PBPARENT_TABLE_B3
The line means:
- 1 - M or P: indicates which table to insert: MASTER or PARENT;
- 2 - M or A or B: indicates MASTER, PARENT_A, PARENT_B;
- 3:18 - DATA.
Based on the values above, what I need to do is:
1. Load a line to MASTER_TABLE;
2. Load a line to PARENT_TABLE_A pointing to its relative line in MASTER_TABLE;
3. Load a line to PARENT_TABLE_B pointing to its relative line in MASTER_TABLE;
4. In the original file line, there is nothing I can use to join a MASTER line with a PARENT line.
The result would be:
MASTER_ID PARENT_DATA
1 PARENT_TABLE_A1
1 PARENT_TABLE_B1
2 PARENT_TABLE_A2
2 PARENT_TABLE_B2
I tried to use both: SEQUENCE and Sequence.NextVall (CurrVal) but they only work when using ROWS=1 and the file I need to load has millions of rows, so I need direct path loading.Also, I read about External Table, but it does not suit my needs because the Application server is not the same as Database server, which is needed by external tables.
in this case is better load the data to a temporary table and then insert to the other tables, I found almost the same question in the topic pointed by the link below: URL....
I want to load geometry into a table using sql*loader. My datafile contains geometry defined as WKT URL...., a standard for geometry and also Oracle has a function called sdo_util.from_wktgeometry.If I'm using a separate 'insert into' statement using this function in sql*plus, there's no problem. But if I'm using the same function in my control-file for sql*loader import, I get a sql*loader-418 error: "bad datafile for column geometrie".
Why and how I can import WKT using sql*loader?

I want to use SQL loader in a procedure..will it be possible to use it in procedure and if yes then how..?
View 4 Replies View RelatedMy data file contains records with RECORD_TYPE '01', '02', '03' and '04' in position (30:31) I use sql loader to load this data into a table. I need to load ONLY rows with RECORD_TYPE ='04'. I have to output all the other rows into a file, so I decided to use DISCARD file. Now, those with RECORD_TYPE ='4' have to be loaded into different columns depending on the value in position (267:268).
So, my ctl file should look something like:
WHEN (30:31) = '04'
into table MYDATA
WHEN (267:268) != 'O '
into table MYDATA
WHEN (267:268) = 'O '
and whatever is not '04' goes to discard file.
I tried to use
into table MYDATA
WHEN (30:31) = '04' and (267:268) != 'O '
into table MYDATA
WHEN (30:31) = '04' and (267:268) = 'O '
but I don't get the right result in terms of the discard file.
Is there any way to put together all these conditions?
The SQL loader somehow is loading only first record. The data file is a csv and the end of line character is a new line. Some text fields have multiple new lines.

I am using sqlloader for loading the data into database by using csv file.My csv file is delimited by comma in that i am having a column which is having the , and line feeds targeted to load into a long data type.for example as below

sdfsdf,
dfsdfd,
i want to move this column data into a single table column.But due to because of delimited "," it is splitting into number of columns
I had a requirement of loading flatfile into staging table using SQL Loader, One of the columns in the the Flat file is having values FALSE or TRUE and my requirement is that I load 0 for FALSE and 1 for TRUE which can be achieved by simple DECODE function...I did use decode and tried to load several times but did not work.

1) can we use a CSV file as a Data file in any format (fixed, delimited...) of Sql loader. I tried, but not succeeded.
2) if not then tell me the reason for it....
3) Also tell me is there any restriction on using the file format for a datafile?
I have a small problem when I am trying to load data into a table using SQL Loader. The data I am trying to load should be a number, but it is in the format '999,999,999 USD'. When I try to load the data, I am getting an invalid number error, due to the USD (I have already accounted for the thousands seperators). My question is, how can I load the data as a number with USD in the format?
Sample Data(testfile.dat):

sample2, "564,324,465 USD"
