SQL Loader Bad File - line number

Is there a way to get the line number of records in the bad file or remove file?

Thank you

Hello
I think you get the line number of the lines could not load in the log file. The fault lines are lines you will find in the wrong file.
I don't know if the log contains the line numbers of the lines scrapped.

I think you'll be better off using external pointing to csv data, and then by running the query on the external table to insert rows in the target table table.

Concerning

Parameters / Variables in SQL Loader Control File
Here's my problem, I created the SQL Loader control file (ctl) to load a file of employees. This loading program is stored in the Oracle Applications. I want it is pass a parameter derived from the profile as the username of those who run the loader program and pass it to the program loader so that the user name information is included in the loading

example of

input data
123456, John, Smith
654321, Jane Doe

data loaded
123456, John, Smith, July 3, 2009, USER13
654321, Jane, Doe, July 3, 2009, USER13

the sysdate is easy because it can be set in the column, but what I want to really realize is a parameter passed to the ctl file.

Thanks in advance.
Hello
It's not easy to pass arguments to control the file all what you can do is change the controlfile by file option for your writing dynamically setting. If the user is the database user you can place the USER as a keyword as you where you will store sysdate.

Thank you.

2. data file to simulate this issue contains the lines below 10. Save this as name.dat. The intention is to load all of the rows in a CTL file. The actual file would have additional lines before and after these lines that can be discarded.

If the INTO TABLE clauses were put in the CTL file, then the first 5 rows are inserted and the rest are in the discard file. The line 6' th would have a ""rejected - all columns null. "in the log file. "

Could someone please take a look and advise? My apologies that the files cannot be attached.

Unless you tell it otherwise, SQL * Loader assumes that each later in the table and what clause after the first back in the position where the previous left off. If you want to start at the beginning of the line every time, then you need to reset the position using position (1) with the first column, as shown below. Position on the first using is optional.

SQL Loader with the line terminator

Dear friends,

I use Oracle 10 g R2.

Need to load some records to a text file to Oracle.

It's my control file:

LOAD DATA 
INFILE 'D:\load\dat\FinNote.dat' 
BADFILE 'D:\load\bad\FinNote.bad' 
DISCARDFILE 'D:\load\dat\discard\FinNote.dsc' 
INSERT INTO TABLE FinNote FIELDS TERMINATED BY '|' OPTIONALLY ENCLOSED BY '"' TRAILING 
NULLCOLS
( IDNo, RegDate date 'YYYY-MM-DD HH24:MI:SS', Col1, Remark, UserID, Status)
{code}

My text file has semicolon as a row delimiter and | as column delimiter. Now, how can I add the semicolon as row delimiter. Please guide me.

I followed the method given in this site: 
http://www.exforsys.com/tutorials/oracle-10g/oracle-10g-sql-loader-input-data-and-datafiles.html


*INFILE datafile_name ["str terminator_string"]*

BADFILE 'D:\load\bad\CRS_FinNote.bad' 
DISCARDFILE 'D:\load\dat\discard\CRS_FinNote.dsc' 
INSERT INTO TABLE CRS_FinNote FIELDS TERMINATED BY '|' OPTIONALLY ENCLOSED BY '"' TRAILING 

NULLCOLS
( StudentNo, IDate date 'YYYY-MM-DD HH24:MI:SS', Topic, Remark, UserID, Status)

and received the error:

How to call sql loader control file with in the pl/sql procedure
Hi friends,

I am doing a project in relation to the transfer data using queues. In the queue, I'll get a data delimited by tabs in the form of CLOB variable/message. I don't want to keep this dat in the oracle table.
During the updating of the data in the table.

1. don't want to write data to a file. (You want to access directly after the specific queue).

2. as the data is in the form of delimited by tabs, I want to use sql loader concept.

How can I call the ctrl charger sql file with in my pl/sql procedure. When I searched, most forums recommending the external procedure or a Java program.

Please guide me on this issue. My preferrence is pl sql, but don't know the external procedure. If no other way, I'll try Java.

I'm using oracle 9.2.0.8.0.

Thanks in advance,
Vimal...
Or SQL * Loader, or external tables are designed to read data from a CLOB stored in the database. They both work on files stored on the file system. If you don't want the data to be written to a file, you have to roll your own parsing code. It is certainly possible. But it will be much less effective than SQL * Loader or external tables. And it is likely to lead to a little more code.

The simplest possible thing that might work would be to use something like Tom Kyte string tokenization package to read a line in the CLOB, divide the component parts and save the different chips in a significant collection (i.e. an object type or a record type that matches the table definition). Of course, you need manage things like the conversion of strings to numbers or dates, rejecting the lines, writing to log files, etc.

SQL Loader control file (.ctl) given in table
Hello

I have a table 'region' in my schema called dss.

SQL > desc region
R_REGIONKEY
R_NAME
R_COMMENT
I want to LOAD the data into this table of the region in a file called "region.tbl" located at d:\tpch\region.tbl, using a CONTROL file that is also on the the same place is to say d:\tpch\region.ctl.

Region.tbl file contains few records. Recording of a SAMPLE of region.tbl is as follows:

* 1 | AMERICA | HS ironic use, same request. s | *

Region.CTL file contains the following lines to load data using sql loader:

DOWNLOAD THE DATA
INFILE'd:\tpch\region.tbl'
IN THE REGION OF THE TABLE
FIELDS TERMINATED BY ' |'
* (R_REGIONKEY, R_NAME, R_COMMENT) *.

so I go to the command prompt, navigate to the location of the above files and run the command:

D:\TPCH > sqlldr control = region.ctl dss/dss = userid
and get the following error:

SQL * Loader-128: unable to start session
ORA-01017: name of user and password invalid. connection refused

I have the same table under the "system" user creation, but I get a different error with this that is:

SQL * Loader-941: error when the table REGION describe statement
ORA-04043: object REGION does not exist

Using Oracle 11 g on my Windows XP.

I'll appreciate the valuable suggestion.

Thank you very much.

Best regards
Kam
You can connect with dss/dss? For example, what
```
sqlplus dss/dss
```
If no, and you are sure that the name of username/password combination is correct, have you checked things like $ORACLE_SID - i.e. it points to the right database?

SQL * Loader Control File - Error 510
Hello!

I am trying to load a file TXT using SQL * Loader, my control file is a little too big I guess: 83KO.

The problem is the message I get:

SQL * Loader: release 10.2.0.3.0 - Production on Qua game 16 11:18:58 2009

Copyright (c) 1982, 2005, Oracle. All rights reserved.

SQL * Loader-510: O registro fisico dados (C:\Teste\Exe548teste_zanthus.old.ctl) e but full o' maximo land (2147473647).

The language is Brazilian Portuguese.

But the size of the file is only 83 KB, not the maximum size. I'm confused.

The data is a TXT file with more than 1000 characters per line.
The problem is that the generated control file is 'bigger' than the maximum. The error is not from the data file (error in the control file, not the data file). If you want I can put the file here and a sample of the data file too.

I guess that is not find expressions of the folklore of the control file, but there a tank < ENTER > at the EOF (CR + LF (I think).

I really want to split the data file or in multiple files control file and then control the import with the software, which would be boring...

I don't know if this information helps but my control file using multiple INTO TABLE...

Thank you!
I still feel that the problem is the end character.

The comparison is ok since I have already tested with a small control file.

The problem is not the size of the file, the problem is the size of the line, with a small control file sql loader to read the file only online, and in this case it works because it is under the limit for the size of the line. (The smal file perhaps has the same problems with the characters of late, but due to its size it recount not error.)

I hope that I missed something in the creation of the control file, I think he tries to read data from it, despite the fact that I have to tell him otherwise, because I saw something to tell the size limit for a control file with data inside...

The control file syntax is OK, I don't think that he search data in the control file.

I insist on the fact that you are creating the control file with another editor, otherwise...

Option of SQL loader control file
Hello

I just started using sql loader and I doubt as a requirement.

I used to get the first data file with 10 columns excel. We got a table with 10 columns backend and were load this excel file using sql loader.

but since last week, they changed the data file and are now sending the data in column 8. what my condition is, for the other 2 columns, I want to insert text 'COLUMN_DROPPED' in the backend table. Rest 8 columns must be filled as usual.
How can I handle files of control for this option?

I just want to know the option that I why I am not providing control file.

Thank you

First of all, it is only possible if remaining 2 column datatype is string (char/nchar, varchar2/nvarchar2, clob/nclob) and is at least 14 characters long. The rest is easy. Just change 2 last control file fields:
```
column9  constant 'COLUMN_DROPPED',
column10 constant 'COLUMN_DROPPED'
```

Problem with SQL * Loader control file

Hi friends,

I use the following control file.

Load Data
infile *
BADFILE xx_ds_po_upload_bad_file.bad
APPEND
INTO TABLE xx_ds_po_upload_hdr
when (1) = 'HDR'
FIELDS TERMINATED BY "     "
TRAILING NULLCOLS
     (         
         header_id "xx_ds_poupload_hdr_s.nextval"              
        ,Supplier_Number
        ,Supplier_Site_Code
        )
INTO TABLE xx_ds_po_upload_lnr
when (1) = 'LNR'
FIELDS TERMINATED BY "     "
TRAILING NULLCOLS
     (         
         header_id "xx_ds_poupload_hdr_s.currval"              
        ,Organization_code
        ,Item
        ,quantity
        ,need_by_date
        ,line_id   "xx_ds_poupload_lnr_s.nextval"  
        )

Here is my data file

HDR     123     001
LNR     xxS     XX     5     05

When I insert the data, the program ends normally but given correct will not be inserted...

It is the way in which the data is inserted in the tables

Header Table

HEADER_ID SUPPLIER_NUMBER                SUPPLIER_S
--------- ------------------------------ ----------
       32 123                            001

Line table

HEADER_ID   LINE_ID ORG ITEM                  QUANTITY NEED_BY_D
--------- --------- --- -------------------- --------- ---------
       32     10015 05

Of the foregoing, in the table of the line, we can see that 05 is inserted for organization_code and since we gave "TRAILING BY NULL COLUMNS" program has no error on and the other fields are NULL.

Can you please why 05 is taken for organization_code when xSS should be taken according to the data files?

Please advise on this

Kind regards
Anthony Alix.

A load of table multiple when one later IN THE TABLE
clause starts the position is NOT defined at the beginning of the
logic automatically.

This is train how to rewrite your code to get the right result

SQL * Loader vs external tables to a single file with several types of records (intercalated)

I have a file of sample data (we will have the a 'true' at a later date and put in day after that) which includes a header, footer, and 5 types of records, that have different columns and lengths, noticed by the first two characters. The different types of records are not all together. On the contrary, some (in particular, two of these types in this example) are intertwined. I am currently working on a SQL * Loader configuration file when it was suggested that I use external tables. I know very little of either, then I would ask what is the best to use.

Scott@orcl12c > host type test.dat

AB, 123, efg

CD, hij, 456

Problem loading xml using sql loader file
I am trying to load data into the table test_xml (xmldata XMLType)

I have an xml file and I want any file to load in a single column

When I use the following control file and run from the command-line as follows
sqlldr $1@$TWO_TASK direct control=$XXTOP/bin/LOAD_XML.ctl = true; :

DOWNLOAD THE DATA
INFILE *.
TRUNCATE INTO TABLE test_xml
XmlType (XMLDATA)
FIELDS
(
tank fill ext_fname (100),
XMLDATA LOBFILE (ext_fname) COMPLETED BY expressions of folklore
)
START DATA
U01/appl/apps/apps_st/appl/XXTop/12.0.0/bin/file. XML

the file is loaded in the table perfectly.

Unfortunately I can't hard-code the name of file as file name will be changed dynamically.

so I removed the block

START DATA
U01/appl/apps/apps_st/appl/XXTop/12.0.0/bin/file. XML

control file and tried to run by giving the following command line path

sqlldr $1@$TWO_TASK control=$XXTOP/bin/LOAD_XML.ctl direct data=/u01/APPL/apps/apps_st/appl/xxtop/12.0.0/bin/file.xml = true;

But strangely it attempts to load each line of the xml file in the table instead of the whole file

Please find the log of the program with the error

Nothing strange, that the data parameter specifies the file containing the data to load.
If you use the name of the XML here, the control file will try to interpret each line of XML as being separate ways.

The traditional approach this is to have the name of the file stored in another file, say filelist.txt and use, for example:
```
echo "/u01/APPL/apps/apps_st/appl/xxtop/12.0.0/bin/file.xml" > filelist.txt
sqlldr $1@$TWO_TASK control=$XXTOP/bin/LOAD_XML.ctl data=filelist.txt direct=true;
```
