AUTO-COMMIT when passing sql scripts to sqlplus possible ?

I am not sure but I think I have read somewhere that there is an AUTO-COMMIT feature in sqlplus. When I enter some SQL statements in sqlplus and forget the COMMIT; statement at the end then sqplplus will do it for me.
How do I enable this in sqlplus ?
Assume I enter a couple of individual SQL statements.
With AUTO-COMMIT enabled is then a COMMIT done at the end of ALL statements (just before the "exit") or after each individual SQL statement ?

You might also look at SQL*Plus EXIT command:
»EXIT with no clauses commits and exits with a value of SUCCESS.«

  • Promt from user to proceed in case of error in sql script in sqlplus

    I am using Oracle 10g on Linux platform. I am executing a control.sql script from sqlplus from where i cam calling three *.sql scripts:
    control.sql

    SELECT 'Start of Control File at:'||systimestamp from dual;

    SPOOL OFFI want that whenver there is an error in any of the three sql scripts, a prompt should be displayed asking the user if he wants to continue or not(Y/N). If he presses Y, then the remaining script shall be executed, otherwise execution should be stopped there.
    Can any body guide me how can i do this?
    Thanks.

  • ORA-27369 Exit-Code: 255 when executing sql script as job

    Dear all
    I'd like to find and compile all invalid objects in an instance. This should be done every day as a scheduled job with the use of DBMS_SCHEDULER.
    For this, I set up the following sql-script:
    ---------start script--------------
    set heading off;
    set feedback off;
    set echo off;
    Set lines 999;
    Spool /tmp/run_invalid.sql
    select
    'ALTER ' || OBJECT_TYPE || ' ' ||
    OWNER || '.' || OBJECT_NAME || ' COMPILE;'
    from
    dba_objects
    where
    status = 'INVALID'
    spool off;
    set heading on;
    set feedback on;
    set echo on;
    @/tmp/run_invalid.sql
    exit
    ------ end script ----
    The script ist working well when executed manualy via sqlplus. As you can see, it spools the commands to a second file (run_invalid.sql) which is the beeing executed to compile the invalid objects found.
    I now want to schedule this script via DBMS_SCHEDULER (running the job every day at 7AM). Creation of the job:
    BEGIN
    DBMS_SCHEDULER.CREATE_JOB (
    job_name => 'compile_invalid_objects',
    job_type => 'EXECUTABLE',
    job_action => '/home/oracle/scripts/sql/compile_invalid_objects.sql',
    start_date => trunc(sysdate)+1+7/24,
    repeat_interval => 'trunc(sysdate)+1+7/24',
    enabled => TRUE,
    comments => 'SQL-Script, und invalid objects zu finden und zu kompilieren'
    END;
    Manualy execute and error message:
    BEGIN
    DBMS_SCHEDULER.RUN_JOB (job_name => 'compile_invalid_objects',
    use_current_session => true);
    END;
    FEHLER in Zeile 1:
    ORA-27369: Job vom Typ EXECUTABLE nicht erfolgreich mit Exit-Code: 255
    ORA-06512: in "SYS.DBMS_ISCHED", Zeile 150
    ORA-06512: in "SYS.DBMS_SCHEDULER", Zeile 441
    ORA-06512: in Zeile 2
    --> Sorry for this, I'm using german localized oracle.
    Unfortunately, it seems that only Shell-Scripts can be scheduled when using job_type='EXECUTABLE'. Can you confirm this?
    BTW: The script is chmoded to 777, therefore it can't be a permission problem.
    Is there maybe another solution with one single script using dbms_output functionality and run the script in a loop?
    To complete my post, here are the commands used to create and test the job:
    BEGIN
    DBMS_SCHEDULER.CREATE_JOB (
    job_name => 'compile_invalid_objects',
    job_type => 'EXECUTABLE',
    job_action => '/tmp/compile_invalid_objects.sql',
    start_date => trunc(sysdate)+1+7/24,
    repeat_interval => 'trunc(sysdate)+1+7/24',
    enabled => TRUE,
    comments => 'SQL-Script, und invalid objects zu finden und kompilieren'
    END;

  • Auto Commit from PL/SQL

    Hello All,
    Is this possible to set Auto Commit on/off
    between DM statements in a PL/SQL block
    Please suggest me.
    Thanks in advance.

    No, you will have to explicitly issue a COMMIT or ROLLBACK when it makes sense to do it.
    The autocommit feature of SQL*Plus (a client application) is not available inside PL/SQL.
    However, an entire PL/SQL block when run from SQL*Plus would be considered as one statement (unit) and autocomit (if enabled) will commit all DML statements performed inside the PL/SQL block (and any blocks called from it).
    Generally, its not a good idea to use this autocommit feature (even if available) since you lose all the control over your transactions. Your transaction never spans one single statement at a time.

  • How to auto commit in pl/sql

    Hello,
    I am calling a PL/SQL procedure from a JDeveloper program. My connection is an "auto-commit" connection, but still, the PL/SQL is not committed until the procedure returns. Is it possible to avoid this, so that every single statement in the PL/SQL is committed immediately?
    Regards
    Jakob

    A PL/SQL block reprsents a single unit of work that either commits or rollbacks. In that sense, that is how it is designed to behave. If you need otherwise, you would have to explicitly place COMMIT statements at appropriate locations.

  • The error message when wrapping sql scripts

    the following is my code for testing the function of wrapper:
    CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE testproc

    p_ret out number,
    p_msg out varchar2
    IS
    BEGIN
    p_ret := 10;

    SHOW ERROR;
    i save it as test.sql,when i wrapped it like that:
    wrap iname=c:\test
    the error message is:
    kgepop:no error frame to pop to for error 1801.
    what's the problem.Thanks.
    dart lee

    You need to run it from the operating system prompt, not the SQL prompt, and you need to specify the full path. For example, I saved your script to a file named test.sql in my c:\oracle81\bin directory, then successfully ran the following from the c:\> DOS prompt:
    C:\>wrap iname=c:\oracle81\bin\test
    Alternatively, you can run it from the SQL prompt, using the HOST command. I also tested this succesfully:
    SQL> HOST wrap iname=c:\oracle81\bin\test
    Using either method above, it produced the following wrapped file, in the following directory, by default, because I did not specify an output file:
    c:\oracle81\bin\test.plb

  • Passing parameters to SQL Script

    I'm trying to pass a parameter to SQL Script like
    sqlplus hr/my_password @myscript.sql King
    but everytime sqlplus is started the system is asking me for this parameter.
    I would like too use this principe in combination with forms. (host user/passwrd@test @test.sql King)
    kind regards,
    Menk

    Your variable name in SQL script must be called &1.
    Eg. SELECT value FROM table WHERE name = '&1.' ;
    So, if you have more than one argument, the followed must be &2. &3. ...
    If you use another name, Oracle always requests the value.
    I hope help you

    You need to upload the file to the SQL scripts area of ApEx. If you upload it to the static files area it's not going to be treated as a SQL script.
    Barring that as the problem - did you verify the contents of the script file on your workstation before you uploaded it - to make sure that the script actually contained the correct contents of the script?
    I've never had any significant problems with script uploads and running scripts in ApEx that couldn't be traced back to operator error. :>)
    Try explaining in detail the steps that you took to try to make this work - then we'll know where to start.

  • Execute .sql scripts from a remote login

    Hello,
    1) How do I execute a remote sql script from sqlplus?
    SQL>@remote_server:$HOME/test_sql.sql ...this did not work, which would work?
    2) Another question, in sqlplus I can do...! echo testing123>$HOME/test123.txt.
    How do I do this within a store procedure?
    This does not work, which would work?
    declare
    v_test varchar2(300) := '! echo testing123>$HOME/test123.txt';
    begin
    execute immediate v_test;
    end;
    /

    Re Q2.
    I take it that's an sqlplus feature on unix as it doesn't work on windows:
    SQL> ! echo testing123>$HOME/test123.txt
    SP2-0734: unknown command beginning "! echo tes..." - rest of line ignored.
    SQL>Also the reason this isn't working from within PL/SQL is that the execute immediate statement is used to send SQL statements to the SQL engine. What you are attempting to do is to send sqlplus commands to the SQL engine which obviously knows nothing about sqlplus commands. Those commands are very specific to the sqlplus executable and will only work in that environment.

  • Get ALWAYS result of syntax check of sqlplus possible ?

    When I pass an sql script to sqlplus as parameter then syntax errors may occur.
    It could happen that I type e.g.
    SELECT * from mytable
    without trailing semicolon.
    In this case sqlplus stops processing and waits forever without informing the
    user about the problems.
    Can I force sqlplus to send syntax check and error results in every case back to the user ?

    Until you tell SQL*Plus that you've completed the statement by adding the semicolon, though, it has no idea when to do the syntax check. It has no idea whether you're in the middle of typing in a query that is going to span multiple lines, whether you've stopped typing to talk to someone in the hall, or whether you intended to submit a query but forgot the semicolon.
    Realistically, this is just part of debugging a script.

  • Script fails when passing values from pl/sql to unix variable

    Script fails when passing values from pl/sql to unix variable
    Dear All,
    I am Automating STATSPACK reporting by modifying the sprepins.sql script.
    Using DBMS_JOB I take the snap of the database and at the end of the day the cron job creates the statspack report and emails it to me.

    Hi,
    could it be the begin_ and end_ Colums of your query?
    Seems SQL*PLUS hs parsing problems?
    try to fetch another column from that table
    and see if the error raises again.

  • Auto run sql script when DB opens

    Is it possible to configure a DB so a given SQL script is run each time the database opens?
    Thanks a lot in advance.

    Thanks a lot in advance.Either include the script in a startup script for the database, dbstart on *nix you'd need to write your own on windows, or else move the code into a startup trigger.

  • How to pass a variable into sqlplus script from file

    here is my problem :
    I have plenty of sql scripts to run. So every time I need to run sqlplus /nolog @scriptxx.name<enter> and then type login<enter>, password<enter>, second login<enter> , second password<enter> - and when it finishes again from the beggining with next one...
    I am fed up with passing these parameters every time. I would like to create a file (files?) with these logins and passwords (located f.ex. in directory where I run the script) then tells, in some way, to my scripts that answers for their questions is inside this file(s).
    Is there any way to do it in such a way ?
    something like: accept DataUser char %read from file user1.txt without my inerteraction%
    ps.
    I cannot add directly these parameters to script because I need to run them on different servers (DEVs and PRODs) and every server has different users and passwords
    KP>

    Actually the START command would resolve the issue, in conjunction with passing parameters and DEFINEs in a sensible manner.
    DEFINE dathasb = '&1'
    ACCEPT dathasb char prompt 'etc...'
    When dathasb already has a value, ACCEPT won't prompt.
    Too many people start hacking and don't use the power of Oracle because they don't the needful : Reading the documentation.
    Other than that obviously the series of scripts needs of course to be re-engineered.
    Asking interactively for a password .... even 20 years back we already didn't do this anymore.
    Of course that was the time when exporting anything beyond the VAX 11/750 to Eastern Europe was prohibited because of US export regulations ;)
    You could store the passwords in Oracle Wallet and be done with it.
    You could use OS authenticated accounts and be done with it.
    But then you still didn't post a version, even not when requested.
