  Hi gurus of the Oracle.

  I have problem with position and external.

  I have the data file with the data of 1 million records

  data delimiter is to and eventually closed by «»

  some lines are not loaded due to errors of data, i.e. data contains some «»

  now, we decided to use the position & external. am unable to write the control file.

  any help would be much appreciated

  The table name is person_memo, 4 columns

  ID_PERSON				VARCHAR2 (9 bytes)

  In your control file, EXTERNAL (26) must be INTEGER EXTERNAL (26).

  Unfortunately, this forum destroyed the spacing, so I can't say whether or not your data are positionnelles.  If it is positional, you can then use positions, but you need start and end positions.  The positions that you posted have nothing to do with the data you've posted.  If you use positions, you can eliminate the delimiters and the beginning and the end of citations using these positions.

  If your data are not positionnelles and you have quotes in your data in quotes, but you don't have the pipe delimiters in your data, then you can only use the delimiters and trim the quotes start and final data.

  I have demonstrated the two methods below, using test1.ctl for the positional method and test2.ctl for the defined method.

• Reg: Problem SQL Loader-

  Hi Experts,

  I am trying to load data from a flat file in an Oracle table, but face some problems.

  Concern (1) (1)

  I have a directory where there are about 20 similar files named as 'rb_1', 'rb_2', 'rb_3', etc...

  All these data should be loaded in a Word only table 'X '.

  Is it possible that only 1 CTL file will make a loop and load all the files in X?

  Concern (2) (2)

  Field delimiter is Ctrl-X (CAN: cancel) and Ctrl-M (EM: em) characters

  Line delimiter is Ctrl-Z (SUB: substitute) and Ctrl-T (DC4: Device Control) characters

  Is there a way I can specify this in my CTL file?

  (I've only worked on delimiter of field as comma "«»", de champ comme virgule «», pas speciales personnages comme ca not special characters like that)

  Please let me know if any additional information is required.

  Help much appreciated.

  Thank you

  -Nordine

  
  

  Agree with Hoek, you'd better to use external tables you can specify multiple filenames at once, otherwise you will have a script that provides the name of the input file when calling sql loader and make this script loop for each file.

  Regarding the ctrl characters in your delimiters, control file supports the hexagonal versions of them for example

  fields terminated by ' 09 x. "

  where 9 is the hexagon of the ascii value of the character (in this case a tab character).

  CTRL-m, that would be x ' 0 of etc.

• Problem with Sql Loader

  Hi s/n,.

  I am facing problems when loading the dates in the database by using sql loader. My data file can have several date formats, so I have a function that interprets date and removes the time settings and the date of return.

  Something like that.

  For example:

  I have a table-

  CREATE TABLE TEMP1234

  (

  IDENTIFICATION NUMBER,

  DATE OF ASOF_DATE

  );

  Data file

  10001172 | 09/12/1945

  Control file:

  OPTIONS (DIRECT = TRUE, SILENT (FEEDBACK) =, skip = 0)

  DATA RELATING TO SUNK COSTS

  REPLACE

  in the temp1234 table

  ' fields completed by "|" possibly provided by ' "'

  TRAILING NULLCOLS

  (ID,

  ASOF_DATE "decode (: ASOF_DATE, null,:ASOF_DATE,conv_date1(:ASOF_DATE))).

  )

  Function CONV_DATE1:

  FUNCTION to CREATE or REPLACE conv_date1 (p_str IN VARCHAR2)
  DATE OF RETURN
  IS
  RETURN_VALUE DATE;

  p_str1 VARCHAR2 (15): = NULL;

  FmtArray TYPE IS a TABLE OF VARCHAR2 (30);

  g_fmts fmtArray
  : = fmtArray ("yyyy-mm-dd",
  "yyyy/mm/dd"
  mm/dd/yyyy"."
  "dd-mm-yyyy",
  "dd/mm/yyyy",
  "mm-dd-yyyy");
  BEGIN
  p_str1: = SUBSTR (p_str, 1, 10);

  BECAUSE me in 1... g_fmts. COUNTY
  LOOP
  BEGIN
  return_value: = TO_DATE (p_str1, g_fmts (i));
  EXIT;
  EXCEPTION
  WHILE OTHERS
  THEN
  NULL;
  END;
  END LOOP;

  IF (return_value IS NULL)
  THEN
  RAISE PROGRAM_ERROR;
  END IF;

  RETURN Return_value;
  END;
  /

  In this case, if the year in the data file shown in 1945, date which is load in the poster 2045 database.

  But when I run this function by putting a sql editor - it returns the correct value.

  Select double conv_date1('12/09/1945');

  Please help me understand what is causing the problem.

  I think there may be an implicit conversion going on with the combination of decode and checking nvl and function within SQL * Loader.  I put the nvl checking in function and simply use the function in the control file, as shown below.

  OPTIONS (DIRECT = TRUE, SILENT (FEEDBACK) =, skip = 0)

  DATA RELATING TO SUNK COSTS

  REPLACE

  in the temp1234 table

  ' fields completed by "|" possibly provided by ' "'

  TRAILING NULLCOLS

  (ID,

  asof_date ' conv_date1 (: asof_date).

  )

  FUNCTION to CREATE or REPLACE conv_date1 (p_str IN VARCHAR2)

  DATE OF RETURN

  IS

  RETURN_VALUE DATE;

  p_str1 VARCHAR2 (15): = NULL;

  FmtArray TYPE IS a TABLE OF VARCHAR2 (30);

  g_fmts fmtArray

  : = fmtArray ("yyyy-mm-dd",

  "yyyy/mm/dd"

  mm/dd/yyyy"."

  "dd-mm-yyyy",

  "dd/mm/yyyy",

  "mm-dd-yyyy");

  BEGIN

  IF p_str IS NULL

  THEN RETURN NULL;

  ON THE OTHER

  p_str1: = SUBSTR (p_str, 1, 10);

  BECAUSE me in 1... g_fmts. COUNTY

  LOOP

  BEGIN

  return_value: = TO_DATE (p_str1, g_fmts (i));

  EXIT;

  EXCEPTION

  WHILE OTHERS

  THEN

  NULL;

  END;

  END LOOP;

  IF (return_value IS NULL)

  THEN

• Problem with SQL Loader ODI

  Hello
  
  I have problems using SQL Loader with ODI. I am filling an oracle table with data from a txt file. Initially, I had used 'File to SQL' LKM, but due to the size of the file (700 MB) source, I decided to use 'file to Oracle (SQLLDR)' LKM.
  The error that appears in myFile.txt.log is: "SQL * Loader-101: invalid argument for the name of user and password.
  
  I think the problem might be in the definition of the database server (physical JavaBeans in topology), because I left empty Host, user and password.
  
  What is the problem? What host and user should I use? With "File to SQL" works fine living that white, but takes too much time.
  
  Thanks in advance

  Note the last * @*. He expects a connection string after him.

  So, goto Oracle server topology, specify Instance/Dblink (server) as the SID of the oracle database you want to connect.

  Published by: 907010 on January 10, 2012 02:24

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

  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;

  UH... which guarantee is implemented by anyone or anything that generates the data in the first place.
  for example if I am extracting data to CSV for a customer or another application, making sure that it is 1 card per line with delimiters known etc.

  What is your own code that produces the data in the first place? If so, how are you to produce? With large amounts of data I wouldn't do it with SQL * Plus spool command, but I do with UTL_FILE within PL/SQL, or generating data in a file CLOB and spell the CLOB in a go using one of the CLOB methods available writing files.

• Import data... Wizard creates the file SQL Loader ctl with columns out of order

  4.1.1.19 SQL Developer version. Connected to Oracle XE to test this.

  I'm trying to understand what the problem with the data in my import file when finally, I realize that the Import Wizard of data did not care how I traced the columns at all. The ctl SQL Loader file generated by the Wizard expects that the columns of data in my file to match the order that they appear in the definition of the table and not how they have been mapped in the wizard. Manually edit the ctl file is a workaround. Has anyone else seen elsewhere?

  I see that this is a bug.

• SQL Loader failed

  Hi all

  I am load flat file in custom intermediate table using sql loader, but I'm betting that the error

  Record 2720: Rejected - error on the table XXPLL_SALES_FCST_BGA_TMPL, column MKTG_ASP.

  ORA-01722: invalid number

  XXPLL_SALES_FCST_BGA_TMPL - Custom intermediate Table

  
  

  MKTG_ASP - contains decimal values

  
  

  I created this column as a number data type.

  
  

  I've seen much after and it was proposed to use 'Decimal external' but it still does not work. All suggestions will be useful.

  
  

  
  

  Thank you

  Sharath Chander M
  

  
  

  
  

  Hi Barbara Boehmer

  Now, I changed in the file ctl under 'EXTERNAL DECIMAL Mktg_ASP DONE BY a SPACE' and now all data are allowed in / load. Is - this way?

  I will also try as you say. Also if the data file has a line any, as a null value for this column will be it's causing any problem for the amendment that I have performed in ctl file?

  Thank you

• SQL Loader - ignore the lines with "rejected - all null columns."

  Hello

  Please see the attached log file. Also joined the table creation script, data file and the bad and throw the files after execution.

  Sqlldr customer in the version of Windows-

  SQL * Loader: release 11.2.0.1.0 - Production

  The CTL file has two clauses INTO TABLE due to the nature of the data. The data presented are a subset of data in the real world file. We are only interested in the lines with the word "Index" in the first column.

  The problem we need to do face is, according to paragraph INTO TABLE appears first in the corresponding CTL lines file to the WHEN CLAUSE it would insert and the rest get discarded.

  1. statement of Create table : create table dummy_load (varchar2 (30) name, number, date of effdate);

  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.

  Based on the understanding of the instructions in the CTL file, ideally the first 6 rows will have been inserted into the table. Instead the table comes from the line 6' th.

  NAME	RATE	EFFDATE
  H15T10Y Index	2	January 19, 2016

  
  

  
  

  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.

  If the problem I encounter is here for loading data in the link table that I check if DHCP is present in the subntwk table, then continue to another mistake of the newspaper. If CMTS then left create link to another error in the newspaper.

  Now that we can here multiple CMTS are associated with unique DHCP.

  So here in the table links to create the link, but for the last iteration of the loop, where I get separated by commas separate CMTS table stg_link_data it gives me log as not found CMTS.

  for example

  DHCP-1-1-1. WNLB-CMTS-01-1,WNLB-CMTS-02-2

  Here, I guess to link the dhcp-1-1-1 with balancing-CMTS-01-1 and wnlb-CMTS-02-2

  Theses all the data present in the subntwk table, but still it gives me journal wnlb-CMTS-02-2 could not be FOUND, but we have already loaded into the subntwk table.

  same thing is happening with all the CMTS table stg_link_data who are in the last (I think here you got what I'm trying to explain).

  But when I run the SQL scripts in the SQL Developer separately then it inserts all valid links in the table of links.

  Here, she should create 9 lines in the table of links, whereas now he creates only 5 rows.

  I use COMMIT in my script also but it only does not help me.

  Run these scripts in your machine let me know if you also get the same behavior I get.

  and please give me a solution I tried many thing from yesterday, but it's always the same.

  It is the table of link log

  link is already present: dhcp-1-1-1_TO_wnlb-cmts-01-1

  NOT FOUND CMTS for device to create the link: wnlb-CMTS-02-2

  link is already present: dhcp-1-1-2_TO_wnlb-cmts-03-3
  link is already present: dhcp-1-1-2_TO_wnlb-cmts-04-4

  NOT FOUND CMTS for device to create the link: wnlb-CMTS-05-5

  NOT FOUND CMTS for device to create the link: wnlb-CMTS-01-1

  NOT FOUND CMTS for device to create the link: wnlb-CMTS-05-8
  NOT FOUND CMTS for device to create the link: wnlb-CMTS-05-6
  NOT FOUND CMTS for device to create the link: wnlb-CMTS-05-0

  link is already present: dhcp-1-1-5_TO_wnlb-cmts-04-4

  NOT FOUND CMTS for device to create the link: wnlb-CMTS-05-7

  Device not found: wnlb-dhcp-1-13

  IF NEED MORE INFORMATION PLEASE LET ME KNOW

  Thank you

  I felt later in the night that during the loading in the staging table using UNIX machine he created the new line for each line. That is why the last CMTS is not found, for this I use the UNIX 2 BACK conversion and it starts to work perfectly.

  It was the dos2unix error!

  Thank you all for your interest and I may learn new things, as I have almost 10 months of experience in (PLSQL, SQL)
