SQL Loader / WHAT clause / off swich? / bloated log files
Hello everyone,I'm loading data using SQL-Loader very large source files. It all works very well.
However, now, by using the WHEN clause (in the control file), I would like to only a very small subset of most load data. This also works very well...
WHEN ARTICLECODE! '000000000000006769' =
However, the log file becomes fully inflated with messages telling me to each record that does not have the WHEN clause...
Record 55078: Discarded - failed all WHEN clauses.
This becomes a problem because it slows down the process and creates large log files that eat upward of my disk space.
There must be a simple command to allow me to disable the messages of thiese, but although I googled on it, I could not find it.
Any ideas on this one? I don't know that it's simple.
Best regards and many thanks,
Alan Searle
Try adding the SILENCE = RELEASES key sqlldr command
Silent means - delete messages during execution (header, comments, errors, discards, partitions)

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.

The value will always point 10 a go (after the semi colon)
I tried the following, but not luck
When (1) = '1') AND (10:2). = 'No '.
Yes, the outer table can be a better option (the file must be in the server). Depending on your data (i.e. the colon (:)) always comes in 9th place) it will work.)

Hello. I am currently using the when option in my SQL Loader script:
But now I find that I must exclude several channels '9000001', '9000002 ', '9000003', 9000004'. Is there a way to do this? Any help would be greatly appreciated.when (01:07) <> '9000001'
Sharpe says:
Awesome. Thank you. One last question... If I have these channels (for example '9000001', etc.) stored in a different table is anyway to reject the records corresponding to this value into my table? Something like a nested statement select?when (01:07) not in(select mystr from mytable)
Let me know is that references a table is possible or not. Thank you.
As far as I know, you can do that. I believe that the Organizer must be or = or! = and to compare value must be a literal, not a select function or expression. You can use SQL * Loader (or an external table if your data on the server, not the client) to load the data into a staging table, then use SQL to insert... where... not in (mystr select from myTable).

The clause in the database log file duplicate
I tried to duplicate a database (Oracle RAC 10 g ASM 2 node Windows 2003 Server R2) and in the document of the oracle, it went something like:
DUPLICATE the TARGET DATABASE to dupdb
PFILE = /dup/oracle/dbs/initDUPDB.ora
LOGFILE
' / dup/oracle/oradata/trgt/redo01.log' SIZE 200 K,.
' / dup/oracle/oradata/trgt/redo02.log' SIZE 200 K,.
' / dup/oracle/oradata/trgt/redo03.log' SIZE 200 K;
I thought as the source database RMAN backup already contained the definitions of redo log. Are only these redo log files used for the process during replication of the database? Is the logfile clause is required to use the command DUPLICATE TARGET DATABASE?
Thank you much in advance.LOG file can be used to specify where the newspapers of recovery for the duplicate database should be placed. This clause is not mandatory and it is really necessary only if you intend to rename the redo log files. If you don't need/want to rename the files, you can use the NOFILENAMECHECK option.

Help with SQL Loader when Clause
I have 2 exact same structure Oracle tables.
NUMBER OF ENO
NUMBER OF PARENT
NUMBER OF CHILDREN
ENAME VARCHAR2 (50 bytes)
ADDRESS VARCHAR2 (50 bytes)
CITY VARCHAR2 (50 bytes)
SRCFILENAME VARCHAR2 (50 bytes)
SDATE VARCHAR2 (400 bytes)
Current_Load VARCHAR2 (1 byte)
Have a data file and a charger control file that loads data into these 2 tables.
I need to make a conditional charge using a when clause.
Condition: what MOTHER = CHILD, load table 2 other load in table 1
My control file looks like this.
But it does not work. It works fine if I give a direct value like PARENT = 'P '.LOAD DATA INFILE 'TEST_20120815.txt' APPEND INTO TABLE test1 fields terminated by "|" trailing nullcols ( eno, parent, child, ename, address, city , sdate "to_date(:sdate,'DD/MM/YYYY')", SrcFileName, col7 filler, "Current_Load" constant 'Y' ) INTO TABLE test2 when (parent=child) fields terminated by "|" trailing nullcols ( eno position(1), parent, child, ename, address, city , sdate "to_date(:sdate,'DD/MM/YYYY')", SrcFileName, col7 filler, "Current_Load" constant 'Y' )
Any idea how compare the 2 fields while the conditional support?You can't compare 2 fields with the WHEN clause in SQL * file the charger control.
only literal values as defined by the syntax:http://docs.Oracle.com/CD/B19306_01/server.102/b14215/ldr_control_file.htm#i1005657
As already suggested, you'd be better to load data using an external table which allows to apply conditions you want in your SQL query, which is to get the data.

SQL Loader loading data into two Tables using a single CSV file
Dear all,
I have a requirement where in I need to load the data into 2 tables using a simple csv file.
So I wrote the following control file. But it loads only the first table and also there nothing in the debug log file.
Please suggest how to achieve this.
Examples of data
Source_system_code,Record_type,Source_System_Vendor_number,$vendor_name,Vendor_site_code,Address_line1,Address_line2,Address_line3
Victor, New, Ven001, Vinay, Vin001, abc, def, xyz

================
OPTIONS (errors = 0, skip = 1)

replace

Record_type tank "ltrim (rtrim (:Record_type)),"
Source_System_Vendor_number tank "ltrim (rtrim (:Source_System_Vendor_number)),"
$vendor_name tank "ltrim (rtrim (:Vendor_name)),"
)

$vendor_name tank "ltrim (rtrim (:Vendor_name)),"
Vendor_site_code tank "ltrim (rtrim (:Vendor_site_code)),"
Address_line1 tank "ltrim (rtrim (:Address_line1)),"
Address_line2 tank "ltrim (rtrim (:Address_line2)),"
Address_line3 tank "ltrim (rtrim (:Address_line3)).
)the problem here is loading into a table, only the first. (Table 1)
Please guide me.
Thank you
Kumar
When you do not provide a starting position for the first field in table2, it starts with the following after a last referenced in table1 field, then it starts with vendor_site_code, instead of $vendor_name. So what you need to do instead, is specify position (1) to the first field in table2 and use the fields to fill. In addition, he dislikes when 1 = 1, and he didn't need anyway. See the example including the corrected below control file.

SQL Loader with BCP datetime format
Hi, Im having trouble loading of data from sybase to oracle may. I already .dat for my lens. However, its datetime column has changed its formula and it is not accepted to oracle.
Please see below.
Source table
PUP_DATE
------------------
2014-10-01 10:34:07.613
PUP_DATE = datetime (sybase - source table)
target table for pup_date data type is TIMESTAMP
When my sybase database are imported via bcp on looked this way date format .dat file
.dat file
....
< EOFD > 1000017962 < EOFD > Oct1 2014 AM < EOFD > 10:34:07.613
...
bcp sql developer-generated command line
BCP dbname.dbo.table_name /directory/test.dat - c t '< EOFD >' - r '< EORD >' - Usa - Ppassword - Sservername
What can I do to keep its format which is accepted at oracle?
I tried to change the date and time stamp of mask in sqldeveloper migration options. also the mapping of datatime timestamp data type.
Thank you!

SQL * Loader: TRUNCATE TO ADD one IN the other
Is it possible to TRONQUER IN 5 tables and ADD IN 1, in the same control file?
APPEND it would be the data from the footer, add to this batch file. The data TABLEs are truncated between charges.
Yes, the syntax is slightly different. Instead of putting TRUNCATE or APPEND at the top of the control file, you have TRUNCATE or APPEND after each table name in the INTO TABLE clause before the WHEN clause. Please see the example below who truncates table ab and inserts into the cd table.
Scott@orcl12c > host type test.dat

Why I don't see physical sql in the log file
Hello everyone,
I try to get the physical sql for one of my analysis on OBIEE. I copied and paste logic sql code into the editor of "PROBLEM SQL" on the Advanced tab, and check the log file. However, there is no physical sql code for this analysis. I find any other analysis. What can be the problem? Can he be on the physical tables / issue privileges etc.?
Kind regards
Dilek
Hello everyone,
I found the solution to my problem. Because I used the filter that contains the result of another analysis, physical sql code is not generated in the log file. When I remove it, it's ok. I'm going to how to change the filter condition. Then the problem is resolved.
Kind regards

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.

Hello
Is it possible to abort the sql loader with force when a value is not present? I have data like this file
1. XXX123 | XXX | 20121121 |
4. XXX123 | XXX |
5. XXX123 | XXX | 1.
5. XXX123 | XXX | 2.
5. XXX123 | XXX |
9. XXX123 | XXX |
Model:
record type | Batch number. lot desc | date | detail line num | other
1,4,5,9 are the types of records, if you see this line 5. XXX123 | XXX | 1| .. 1 represents a number of detail line, my requirement is if the number of detail line is null for the record type 5 then I want to abort the sqlloader.
Is this possible?

Hello
you were clear, and I did a quick test. Unfortunately you can not do this check in SQL * Loader as the WHEN in the control file clause allows not just GOLD.
Even if you add this check using a constraint in your table and specify the maximum number of errors to 0, SQL * Loader will load the files until this error.
Let me show you an example:
(1) create a table with a constraint that, for record_type detail_line_number 5, may not be null.
CREATE TABLE test ( record_type INTEGER , batch_number VARCHAR2 (10) , batch_desc VARCHAR2 (10) , batch_date DATE , detail_line_num INTEGER , other VARCHAR2 (10) ); ALTER TABLE test ADD CONSTRAINT check_rec_5 CHECK ( record_type = 5 AND detail_line_num IS NOT NULL OR record_type != 5) ENABLE;
In this table, you will not be able to load lines with a record_type = 5 and NULL detail_line_num as this will be considered an error.
We will prepare your input file:
1|XXX123|XXX|20121121|| 4|XXX123|XXX||| 5|XXX123|XXX||1| 5|XXX123|XXX||| 5|XXX123|XXX||| 9|XXX123|XXX||| 1|XXX123|XXX|20121121|| 4|XXX123|XXX||| 5|XXX123|XXX||1| 5|XXX123|XXX||2| 5|XXX123|XXX||| 9|XXX123|XXX|||1|XXX123|XXX|20121121|| 4|XXX123|XXX||| 5|XXX123|XXX||1| 5|XXX123|XXX||2| 5|XXX123|XXX||| 9|XXX123|XXX|||1|XXX123|XXX|20121121|| 4|XXX123|XXX||| 5|XXX123|XXX||1| 5|XXX123|XXX||2|
As you can see that the input file has the fourth line with record_type = 5 and detail_line_num NULL. It is a mistake of the constraint.
Here I used the control file:
--test.ctl load data INFILE 'test.dat' APPEND INTO TABLE test FIELDS TERMINATED BY '|' TRAILING NULLCOLS ( record_type , batch_number , batch_desc , batch_date Date 'YYYYMMDD', detail_line_num , other )
If I try to run the SQL * Loader and ask to stop at the first error in this way:
sqlldr userid=yourname/yourpass@yourdb control=test.ctl errors=0 rows=100
SQL * Loader performs only 3 folders because it encounters an error in line 4 and having specified errors = 0 will not continue to load. In fact, the process will continue until she reached the point of validation (in this case 100 lines), but it is not loading any record after the error, or continue to read the file.
So, if I check the table
SELECT * FROM test; RECORD_TYPE BATCH_NUMBER BATCH_DESC BATCH_DATE DETAIL_LINE_NUM OTHER ----------- ------------ ---------- --------------------- --------------- ---------- 1 XXX123 XXX 21-11-2012 00:00:00 4 XXX123 XXX 5 XXX123 XXX 1
You will only see the records until you have reached the error.
This can be avoided, as documented in SQL * Loader manual reference:
Load interrupted because they exceeded the maximum number of errors
If the maximum number of errors is exceeded, SQL * Loader stops loading documents in any table and the work accomplished so far is committed.As you can see SQL * Loader to interrupt the treatment, but it engage in any case files until this error.
Another solution is to create an external table in Oracle and do all the checks you want before you copy your table in a database table, as suggested BluShadow.
Kind regards.

How to handle multiple formats of date to the same date field in SQL * Loader
Dear all,
I have a requirement where I need to get data from a text file and even insert into the oracle table.
I'm using SQL * Loader to fill data from the text file in my table.
The file has an area where I expect to date data date in different formats, such as MON/dd/yyyy mon/dd/yyyy mon/dd/yyyy, dd/mm/yyyy, DD/month/yyyy.
When you use SQL * Loader, I can see loading fails for records where we have formats such as LUN/jj/aaaa, Mon/dd/yyyy, DD/month/yyyy.
Is it possible in SQL * Loader where we can mention all these date formats so that data from that date should go smoothly in the underlying date column in the table.
Receive your answer on that.
Thank you
Madhu K.I think following could be the solution to your problem:
Suppose if you have data from four different date formats, you need to load the data into four different tables by running SQL * Loader four times and each time specify other date format in the control file whose data to load, and then at the end, merge data from these four different tables using the UNION clause.
