  Hi all
  I'm trying to create a table outside and fill it with data from my DB. Without the AS - Section all right. The external table will be created, but I do not get the data into it. Is there a possible way to write data defined in a flat file via external table or some other mechanism?

• Several flat_files through the external table with only the common columns of loading

  Hi, I have 50 flat files and each of them have some columns (fields) common and I need to load only the fields that are common to an external Table. Is any chance to do it with education unique external table. Or I need to load all flat_files at separate tables and then with the ETG and UNION load them only one table.

  If the page size for all the files are different, I think that your only option would be to define different external tables and create a view that joins all the.

• Battle of external table: files that contain only a picture

  Hello

  Does anyone know if this is possible: use an external table to load files that each contain only one photo (photo) in a BLOB column?

  So: just a photo, not other columns and not many lines.

  I tried, in the sense of this article: ORACLE-DATABASE external Tables containing LOB -

  I'm starting to believe it is not possible due to the "delimited records by ' and 'fields terminated by' clauses, which are not really applicable given files (just a picture), but maybe (hopefully), I'm wrong.

  Any pointer is more than welcome!

  Yes it is possible.  Let's not your date mask.  You're masking for 12-hour format when your data is in 24-hour format.  Change the mask of your date to be "YYYY-mm-dd-hh24. MI.ss ".  Notice the change in "BOLD".

• field of varchar2 external table storing only 255 bytes (4000 bytes)

  Hi all
  
  I was wondering if someone can tell me what im missing here.
  I have an external table with one column defined as varchar2 (4000 byte). the file contains a line with 255 characters (all the number 2 for simplicity). When I query the table, everything is fine. If I add 1 plus 2 chain (256 characters) it fails. im sure its something stupidly simple, but what am I missing? If he doesn't have to question fine up to 4000 characters?
  
  Thank you
  Dave

  I ran your testcase, thanks for that.
  Make sure you read the SQL and PL/SQL FAQ as well (the first thread sticky on this forum), he explains how to post the code formatted and many other things.

  In any case, the .log file gave me:

  LOG file opened at 07/18/11 20:05:33
  
  Field Definitions for table DAVEP2
    Record format DELIMITED, delimited by 0A
    Data in file has same endianness as the platform
    Rows with all null fields are accepted
  
    Fields in Data Source:

  So, what happens if you create the table as follows:

• Need to change column Datatype on external Table

  Hi - I need to change a data type of column on an external table and I have a few questions.
  
  1. I've read that I can do a regular alter table change column statement, but I also see in the script behind the external table, the following instructions:
  

   FIELDS  MISSING FIELD VALUES ARE NULL(
          claim_number           POSITION(1-12)   INTEGER EXTERNAL(12),
          receipt_date           POSITION(13-8)   INTEGER EXTERNAL(8),
  ........

  When I run the statement column change he does not alter the column but does nothing in this clause. Is it possible to update this info as well?
  
  I wonder also (currently working at dev with a specification of invalid directory - soon to solve) - will I encounter a problem if I try to edit my article, if a file is located in the related directory? I ask because I know that to change the data type of the existing column in a table standard you must first set this null column, so I wonder how this rul applies when it is an external table.
  
  Thank you!
  Christine

  An external table does not store any data. The external file that contains data is only available at query time. You can remove the outer table and re-create it to change both the data type of the column in the table and the type of data in the file. using the statement ALTER TABLE... Type MODIFY instruction, you can modify the data of table column. You can also change the definition of the external table if the file is stored in the direcory and ready to be read through the external table.

  In an ordinary table, you can decrease the length of the column if the column is no longer, then the new column length:

  SQL >desc test

  External USB hard drives lose its connection and work stoppages.

  History

   
  Windows 7 Ultimate - 64-bit
  I installed it on a HP Pavilion, OS, 64-bit, and I have this problem.
  People report that it does not occur with Windows 7 32 bit OS.

  Problem:
  Any brand of external hard drive USB (and other USB devices sometimes) lose its connection and stops working only when copying large files internal drive to external USB drives.
  The USB device may appear to work properly when Windows first starts, but later stops working (crashes computer) after the start of large files to copy. You must restart Windows for the USB is working again.
  This only occurs when you copy files large files to THE USB port, not on the internal drive. It happened when I synicing my IPhone with Itunes when it started the synchronization of music files.

  According to the suggestions I have:
  1) updated the BIOS from the websites of the manufacturers.
  (2) power management disabled on the USB hub for disks
  (3) ensure that the BIOS for Legacy USB is set to.  I don't have this option in the BIOS settings.
  (4) this is not a motherboard problem, it is located on three different MB that we use.
  Also tried three different USB drives and different cables.

  Because I tested with two different computers updated and USB drives, our opinion is that this problem indicates that the Windows 7 64-bit operating system.

  Someone knows a solution?

  Hi Jh6284,

  Thank you for posting.
  What is a version of Windows 7 RC or RTM?

  You can try to uninstall and reinstall the drivers for the USB ports in Device Manager.

  UNINSTALL ALL USB ENTRIES IN DEVICE MANAGER ASSOCIATES.

  1. click on START
  2. right click "Computer" and select "Properties".
  3. on the left side, click on Device Manager.
  4. expand the 'USB Bus controllers' category
  5. right click and uninstall all THE references listed
  6. restart your computer and check if it works.
   
  I suggest you go to the Web site of the manufacturer of your and try to install the latest drivers for the chipset. Make sure that install you in compatibility mode there is no driver for Windows 7 64 bit.

  Please go through the article below to install in compatibility mode.

• The external Table storage

  Since data is stored outdoors, and the definition that is stored inside, it means that a the table structure of the outer table is stored in the database as well (or a virtual table based on the definition of the external table...)

  I'll hit the ORA-DOCS again once, back in the external tables read tonight on them 2 or 3 sources and it is not quite clear whether real data with structure exists outside the database or an internal table set (and stored) retrieves data from an outside source.

  Since data is stored outdoors, and the definition that is stored inside, it means that a the table structure of the outer table is stored in the database as well (or a virtual table based on the definition of the external table...)

  The 'definition' you refer to IS the structure of the table; they are one and the same. There is no 'table' stored in the database using space or storage. When a query on an external table is executed, the data source is read.

  
  I'll be hitting the ORA-DOCS up again, just got back into external tables tonight reading up on them from 2-3 sources and it is not quite clear if an actual data with structure exists out of the database , or an internally defined (and stored?) table draws data from an outside source.
  

  I suggest you that start with the documentation of Oracle - including the ground provided the link to:

  If any "metadata" are stored outside the database depends on if the file that is outside of the database was produced by Oracle using the robot UNLOADING discussed in this doc

  Unloading of data using ORACLE_DATAPUMP Access driver

  To unload data, you use the ORACLE_DATAPUMP driver access. The stream that is discharged is in a proprietary format and contains all of the data column for each row being unloaded.

  A discharge operation also creates a stream of metadata that describes the content of the data stream. The information in the metadata stream are required to load the stream. Therefore, the metadata stream is written to the file data and placed before the data stream.

  If YOU provide data/files, then you MUST provide it in the format expected by the external table statement. You can, if you wish, use a preprocessor to convert ANY file (zip, encrypted, etc.) in the required format.

  For YOUR files, you can the metadata stored in the same file, or elsewhere, if you choose, but Oracle will have NO knowledge of this fact and not will NOT be involved in the transformation or read any of the metadata that you provide. Your preprocessor must remove all these metadata and ONLY provide data in the format appropriate for Oracle to use.

  If the file was produced by the process of UNLOADING Oracle then it will include metadata that Oracle WILL read, use, and remove as says this quote from doc above. These external metadata is added to the real external table definintion/metadata stored in the dictionary.

• Bulk insert in an external table

  Hi, I get the error ora-29913, ora-01410 trying to do a bulk insert of external table

  INSERT

  IN CORE_TB_LOG

  (SELECT 'MODEL', 'ARCH_BH_MODEL', ROWID, "MODEL-D-000000001', - 45, 'A', SYSDATE, 'R'")

  OF ARCH_BH_MODEL1

  WHERE length (MOD_XCODIGO) > 10)

  INSERT

  *

  ERROR on line 1:

  ORA-29913: error in executing ODCIEXTTABLEFETCH legend

  ORA-01410: invalid ROWID

  ARCH_BH_MODEL1 is the external table.

  
  

  What's wrong?

  
  

  Thank you.
  

  Hello

  There is no ROWID in external tables.

  It makes sense: ROWID identifies where a line is stored in the database; It shows the data file and the block number in this file.

  External tables are not stored in the database.  They exist independently of any data file in the database.  The concept of an Oracle block does not apply to them.

  Why would you copy the ROWID, even if you could?

  Apart from ROWID and SYSDATE, you select only literals.  You don't want to select all the real data of the external table?

  What is the big picture here?  Post a small example of data (a CREATE TABLE statement and a small data file for the external table) and the desired results from these sample data (in other words, what core_tb_log must contain after INSERTION is complete.)  Explain how you get these results from data provided.

• Error when calling a procedure using an external table with c#.

  Hello

  I'm developing an application scheduler with Visual Studio 2010 (c#) to start my PL/SQL procedures.

  Everything works fine with each procedure, but one who reads the contents of an external table.

  Strange thing is when I start the same procedure with Toad, I have no problem, but when I run with my c# code:

  OracleCommand cmdMET = new OracleCommand();

  cmdMET.CommandText = 'STG_AE. M_MET_S_EXT_DEFECT ';

  cmdMET.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure;

  con = cmdMET.Connection;

  OracleParameter retvalMET = new OracleParameter ("value", OracleDbType.Varchar2, 50);

  retvalMET.Direction = ParameterDirection.ReturnValue;

  cmdMET.Parameters.Add (retvalMET);

  cmdMET.ExecuteNonQuery ();

  I got this error:

  ORA-29913: error in executing ODCIEXTTABLEFETCH legend

  ORA-01722: invalid number

  ORA-06512: at "STG_AE. M_MET_S_EXT_DEFECT', line 8

  ORA-06512: at "STG_AE. MET_SRC', line 10

  ORA-06512: at "STG_AE. PUTS", line 14

  ORA-06512: at line 1

  I can't understand why it works when I run it with Toad and why I get this error when launching of it with c#... Any advice would be great!

  Thank you!

  The error led to think that a string to number conversion fails all by accessing the external table.

  What is the format of numeric fields in the external file?

  I'm guessing that your session NLS_NUMERIC_CHARACTERS setting is defined differently whether you're in your application c# or toad.

  Could check you on both?

• In the external table files forming themselves!

  Hi all

  I am facing a weird situation.

  Few days back, DB has been improved to 11g 10g R2 and we are facing the situation of the training of logfiles, throw files have joined with external tables in the directory of the OS!

  Without job is calling them and the only procedure in which these paintings have been used in the SELECT statement, are not running, even while these files form themselves and fill space in the BONE.

  Here is the version information:

  Oracle Database 11 g Enterprise Edition Release 11.2.0.3.0 - 64 bit Production

  PL/SQL Release 11.2.0.3.0 - Production

  "CORE 11.2.0.3.0 Production."

  AMT for IBM/AIX RISC System/6000: Version 11.2.0.3.0 - Production

  NLSRTL Version 11.2.0.3.0 - Production

  Please help in this regard.

  Thank you.

  Hi all

  Problem has been identified.

  11 g, dbms_stats.gather_stats_job runs all day until 22:00 and after every 4 hours on weekends.

  He also tried gathering statistics for external tables given through the GATHER_TABLE_STATS procedure.

  In the process, he joint/written in the log files.

  Now, I think of locking statistics from this table, so that no stats will be gathered for what is just an EXTERNAL table which is used/populated only once a month.

  Suggestions or comments?

  Thank you.

• Using the external table error

  Hi all

  This is the first time I use the external table for loading the data.

  I did these steps

  In the D:\sqlloade folder, I have my text file containing data example.txt

  I ran these queries

  CREATE OR REPLACE DIRECTORY  ext_tab_data AS 'D:\sqlloader';
  
  

  Directory created

  CREATE TABLE fxops.t_ext (
  t number
  )
  ORGANIZATION EXTERNAL (
    TYPE ORACLE_LOADER
    DEFAULT DIRECTORY ext_tab_data
    ACCESS PARAMETERS (
      RECORDS DELIMITED BY NEWLINE
      FIELDS TERMINATED BY ','
      MISSING FIELD VALUES ARE NULL
      (
       t number
      )
    )
    LOCATION ('sample.txt')
  )
  PARALLEL 5
  REJECT LIMIT UNLIMITED;
  
  

  create table

  When I tried to create a view on that table, he throws an error

  CREATE OR REPLACE VIEW fxops.t_view  AS
    SELECT *
    FROM   fxops.t_ext;
  
  SQL Error: ORA-06564: object EXT_TAB_DATA does not exist
  06564. 00000 -  "object %s does not exist"
  *Cause:    The named object could not be found.  Either it does not exist
             or you do not have permission to access it.
  *Action:   Create the object or get permission to access it.
  
  

  Sign in, and then run this:

  Select HOST_NAME from v$ instance;

  is this the same hostname that you are connected?

  Kind regards

  Harry
