Loading Date fields from flat file to Oracle tables

Hi,
I have a flat file with a few date columns. I have given the format for the date field while creating the data store for the flat file. The format I used is 'YYYY-MM-DD'.
But I get an error when I execute it after associating the module with LKM & IKM.
The error message is as follows:
org.apache.bsf.BSFException: exception from Jython: Traceback (innermost last):
File "<string>", line 3, in ?
OS command has signalled errors
Can anyone help me out.
Thanks

At the time of DataStore creation. You take that date field as string.
After this, in interface, when you map this date field with table field. You should use CONVERT(<field name>,DATE) in expression editor.

Short dump while reading a currency field from Flat file into internal tabl

Hi,
I am getting a short dump........saying number conversion dump (while reading a currency value into field in internal table from a fixed lenght flat file).........
Do I need to use a string variable to get the value from flat file or how ??
Please suggest.

Santosh,
Thanks for your inputs,
But my internal table type is of DEC (5,2) , I am getting that... it needs to be of type 'C'. Can you suggest.
Ex :
MOVE wa_temp-infile_string+106(8) TO wa_item-QT_PERCENT
This didnt work
so i tried moving into a seperate variable
MOVE wa_temp-infile_string+106(8) TO v_percent.
and then write to
WRITE v_percent to wa_item-QT_PERCENT.

Sending data from flat file or oracle table view to a IBM MQ

Hi,
We need a help in developing solution.
We have a scenario, where data(multiple records) in source (table/file) needs to populated into a queue(JMS IBM MQ) as a single message. To achieve this we are trying a two step process.
1)     We created a temp table to store multiple records from file, this temp table is having one column of *‘clob’* data-type which will store data from file into a single row. We are facing issue while loading data from file to staging area using LKM FILE TO ORACLE (SQLLDR)
When we are executing interface, while creating C$ table it is going error out . Instead of taking clob (target write data type) it is taking varchar with +5000+ size whereas varchar supports only *4000*.
create table SNPM.C$_0SINGLERECORD
C1_C1 VARCHAR2(5000) NULL
NOLOGGING
Error message:
910 : 42000 : java.sql.SQLException: ORA-00910: specified length too long for its datatype
java.sql.SQLException: ORA-00910: specified length too long for its datatype
Need help in sending data into destination table.
2) After populating this data into destination(temp table) as a single record we need to send each row as a single message to JMS MQ. currently we are using LKM FILE to SQL to load into Staging area and IKM SQL TO JMS APPEND to put message in JMS MQ. We are succeeding in putting message of length < 4000 as these KMs are converting the data using varchar2, but we have data of large size+(>4K)+.
Pointer/ solution will be of great help.
Please let me know in case you need more description.

The error message that is showing while using clob as datatype(which we created as user data type in data types section of respective technology)
java.lang.NumberFormatException: For input string: "4294967295"
     at java.lang.NumberFormatException.forInputString(Unknown Source)
     at java.lang.Integer.parseInt(Unknown Source)
while using varchar2 in creating C$ table following is the error:
910 : 42000 : java.sql.SQLException: ORA-00910: specified length too long for its datatype
java.sql.SQLException: ORA-00910: specified length too long for its datatype

Hi John,
The source is csv file. By default all columns are string type.The integration is failing at step 3 ( load Data).
I am loading the data from csv file directly to staging table( oracle ).Its one to one mapping.

Increase the page size in odiparams.bat in the bin folder and restart Designer.
For eg:

OWB - Flat file to oracle table

Second message, please read.
OS- Microsoft windows 2000 5.00.2195 Service Pack 2
OWB client---9.0.3.33.0
OWB Repository--9.0.3.0.1
Database--oracle 9i Enterprise Edition 9.0.1.3.1 with the partioning option Jserver Release9.0.1.3.0
OEM--9.0.1.0.0
I have created mapping between the source(flat file)and target(oracle)using Oracle Warehouse Builder. Mapping was validated, configured and it successfully generated without errors. The ‘Deploy’ button and the ‘Run’ button are disabled. How can I run/deploy this mapping ?
The above OWB copy was downloaded from the Oracle corp website. Is this version an evaluation copy? Alternatively Is this a beta copy ?
Please help.

Dear All,
I have a problem with loading flat files to oracle tables using OWB 9.2
i created a map with my flat file as a source and my oracle table as a target,and i created a connector between the target location and the flat file location.And i deployed the connector and registered the flat file location using my PC information and the path of the files on my pc.
I generated the map and saved the .ctl file and deployed the map,and hence trying to load the ctl file using the sql loader as the following:
C:\Documents and Settings\CORAL 2000>sqlldr owb_rt_rep/owb_rt_rep@ofsa
control = D:\oracle2\ofsa\owb\codegen\BM_DEBIT_CARDS_DAT_MAP.ctl
---where owb_rt_rep is my runtime repository user.
I got the following error:
SQL*Loader-350: Syntax error at line 18.
Expecting "(", found ".".
INTO TABLE "{{TRG_LOC1.Schema}}"."BM_DEBIT_CARDS_DAT"
--where trg_loc1 is my target location and bm_debit_cards_dat is my target table.
I tried to grant from the target schema the privelages to the runtime user incase its the problem,but still it didn't work.
Any ideas??

Map FLAT file to oracle table using 9.04 version - PLS HELP!!!!

Hello all
I am having a problem with mapping a flat file to oracle table. The validation is successful, when I go to Project/Deployment manager. Try to deploy the mapping itself and the target table. It said succesful, and the last step is another "Deploy", this one is fail. Saying could not locate the file (which is a flat file) , but it is there on the server.
I have read all the help on line and follow what they show me, but still not work
Any ideas? Please provide detail answer if you know it.
Thank in advance

Hallo,
just give a rights on connector
Variant 1
1. connect to user sys
2. grant read,write on directory <connector_name> to <target_schema>;
or
Variant 2
1. as user sys or system give CREATE_ANY_DIRECTORY to <target_schema>
2. manualy make CREATE DIRECTORY <connector_name> as '<full_path_to_directory>';
and enjoy :)
PS: <connector_name> you can take from script CREATE_TABLE wisch in Generation phase was created!

Conversion of fixed length flat files to oracle table

hello friends
Please help me getting the code for conversion of fixed length flat files to oracle table
Should the tables be pre-defined ?????
In this case the de-limiters are variable length spaces and not commas.Please help me with the same
Regards,
-Mahesh

You can use SQL*Loader to load fixed-width files into Oracle. Instructions on writing appropriate control files are in the Oracle Utilities manual
http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/B10501_01/server.920/a96652/ch03.htm#1004687
You can also use external tables, assuming you're using 9i or later (the syntax for external table definitions is nearly identical to the syntax for SQL*Loader control files).
You'll need to create a table definition in Oracle. You can either create a "normal" table and use SQL*Loader to populate it or you can create an external table definition.

Issue in loading specific columns from a file to teradata table using IKM

Hi,
Can any one help to resolve the issue in loading specific columns from text file to teradata table.
i tried using IKM file teradata and columns are getting displaced.
my requirement suppose i have 5 columns in file and i have to load only 3columns to table using IKM.
same thing can be achived using LKM file to teradata but i want use IKM.
please suggest me on this
Regards
Vinod

Hi,
I believe that the problem you are having is that you have a delimited file, of which you want to pick columns from position 2,3,5. In this case, ODI will pick the first 3 columns of a delimited file regardless of position.
For example, if you a tab delimited file with c1,c2,c3,c4,c5 columns, and you want only columns c2,c3,c5 - when mapping these in an ODI interface, and executing, you will actually pick up the data from c1,c2,c3 as these are the first three columns in the file (reading from left to right). You can ignore "columns" on the right hand side of a file, but not the left. E.g delimited file with c1,c2,c3,c4,c5. Only pick columns c1,c2 will give you data for the first 2 columns
Create a temporary table to load all the data from the file, and use you temp table to extract the data you require. Or you could get the file created with the first three columns as the columns you require.
Cheers
Bos
