Calling SQL Loader from ColdFusion Web Server
We are trying to Load Data files into Oracle through a Cold Fusion Web Application. Users will browse to a local file on their computers, click a button, and our application will use SQL Loader to load the data into oracle. The ColdFusion web server is Unix and the 11g database server is Linux. When we run the ColdFusion code below we get a file not found error, the sqlldr executable cannot be found. Do we need to install an Oracle client or something on the ColdFusion Web server to get this to work?
<cfexecute name="sqlldr" arguments="ADVDEMO@ADVDEMO/Transact2011 control=/space/users/www/advfiles/ControlFiles/BS/Bio_ControlFile.ctl" timeout="500"></cfexecute>
'sqlldr' is part of Oracle server or (full) Oracle client software - NOT the OS - so indeed you need to install at least the client. Unfortunately 'sqlldr' is not part of the Instant Client, which is much smaller than the full client.
Some guys tried to add 'sqlldr' manually:

Calling SQL*Loader from Forms
Hi,
I was wondering if anyone has called SQL*Loader from Forms?
What I am wanting to do is use Oracle Forms as the interface where you can specify a file that you can import into the database and it will use a set control file. Push the import button and SQL*Loader does the rest.
Is using Java code to call SQL*Loader from Forms a viable option, or is there an easier way to achieve the desired outcome.
Any ideas or guidance will be much appreciated.
Thanks,
Scott.Scott,
In forms, there's a HOST built-in command which is supposed to execute any o/s commands.
What you have to do is :
1. Bult up the string exacltly in the fashion which you will run in o/s
2. Call the HOST Built-in and pass in the string
Here's a example :
Declare
lOsCmd Varchar2(1000) := Null;
Begin
lOsCmd := 'sqlldr user-id=userid/passwd@connectStr '
|| ' control=c:\temp\abc.ctl log=c:\temp\abc.log '
|| ' bad = c:\temp\abc.log';
Host (lOsCmd, No_Screen);
End;

Calling Sql*Loader from oracle Form builder
How do i call sql* loader from my forms to import the external data in different formats into my existing database?
Specify the flexibility of sql* loader to import external data from .txt files or .xls files.
Would be thankful if certain examples are given along with the answer.Hi,
1. First you have to create seperate ctl (Control files) which maps to different file formats
2. Using Oracle Forms,
2a) You can use the 'HOST' command to execute the command line ie. In this case executing
SQL*Loader script
2b) You also have the feature in ORACLE forms to read text files and load the data into
ORACLE db.
This can be achieved by using TEXT_IO package which comes with ORACLE Forms.
Hope this helps

Calling SQL*Loader from OCCI
Hi All,
I need to access SQL*Loader from C++.
I know there is an interface for OCI to access SQL*Loader.
I also know there is a gnu project of a c++ wrapper to the OCI-SQL*Loader interface (odpd).
According to the OCCI documentation it is just a C++ facade of OCI (with some goodies like thread managing , etc.).
I want to know the following:
1. How can I operate OCI from OCCI?
2. Are there are source samples of operating OCI from OCCI or even better operating OCI SQL*Loader interface from OCCI?
3. Are there are any known (/unknown :-) ) problems with either OCCI access to OCI or OCI interface itself to the SQL*Loader?
Thanks,
ArikHi,
If you have a OCCI application and you want to interoperate with OCI, you can retrieve the underlying OCI handles from OCCI objects and write OCI code.
e.g :-
//with Environment env, Connection conn OCCI objects
OCIEnv *ocienv = env->getOCIEnv();
OCISvcCtx *ocisvc = conn->getOCISvcCtx();
//use OCI calls
OCIError *errhp;
OCIHandleAlloc (ocienv, &errhp, OCI_HTYPE_ERROR,...);
OCIHandleAlloc (ocienv, &dpctx, OCI_HTYPE_DIRPATH_CTX,..);
err = OCIDirPathLoadStream(...);
OCCI does not have a direct path API at present.
Thanks. -
How to Call SQL Loader from Java ( servlet )?
We need to call SQL Loader command from Java Servlets? Any suggestions how this can be done?

RahulProbably not the best way, but you could try using JNI to call a C function which then invokes SQL Loader via system() or exec(). I haven't done this myself though...

Calling SQL LOADER From Java Program
Hi
I need to invoke sql loader from inside a Java Class.
Any Pointers in this regards will be really appreciated.
Thanks
VishalYou can create two different files which has sqlldr command defined....
1. loader.sh
2. loader.bat
and in the depending on the OS execute one...
String command = "";
if(System.getProperty("os.name").equals("Windows 2000")){
//if os is windows 2000 then execute bat file
command = <<bat file path>>
}else{
command = <<shell path>>
Runtime rt = Runtime.getRuntime();
Process p = rt.exec(command);
int i = p.exitValue();

Calling SQL Loader from Forms 4.5 using HOST command in Win2000
One of my forms calls SQL Loader 7.3 using HOST command to load a csv file onto the database(Oracle 7.3) under Windows 2000 platform.
Only after sql loader finishes its operation the control should come to my form i.e. synchronous execution.
As of now its running asynchronously.
Is there any way to make it synchronous. If Not any other work arounds?
Environment Details
Forms [32 Bit] Version 4.5.10.6.0 (Production)
Windows 2000 Operating System
Oracle7 Release 7.3.2.3.2Forms6i running on W2000, Rdbms 8.1.7
in Forms I added a button TEST,
Trigger when-button-pressed : host('test.bat') ;
in directory .......\frm I added file test.bat :
REM ===============
cd /d C:\........\ldr
pause
sqlldr parfile=test.par
pause
type test.log
pause
exit
REM ================
now, pressing TEST button opens DOS window, telling me what's going on, running sqlldr, finally going back to forms
Are you using NO_PROMPT or NO_SCREEN option of HOST command ?
Had a look at Forms 4.5 manuals, there is no mentioning of (a)synchronously operation in connection with HOST command. -
Calling SQL Loader from SQL Plus
Hi everyone,
I currently use both SQL Loader and SQL Plus to load data and to then carry out certain DML tasks and to reinstate indexes. That all works fine but of course I need to be present to start and to monitor the various scripts.
What I would really like to do is to be able to incorporate the calls to SQL-Loader into my SQL-Plus scripts and am wondering if this is possible.
At the moment I run some parts of the load in 'batch' (i.e. command line calls to SQL-Loader and to SQL-Plus) but this won't work for the whole load because the batch calls (from Windows) are not able to wait for particular processes to finish before they start the next. This works OK for the SQL-Loader scripts (because they can run in parallel) but will not work for the whole load because the load needs to be finished before the further processing starts.
Or maybe there is a way (Windows .BAT files?) to set up batch processes which are intelligent enough to wait for one action to finish before starting the next action.
Any thoughts or any links to HOWTOs on this would be a great help.
Regards and thanks,
Alan SearleHi Alan,
In SQL*Plus you have the HOST command.
I would go for the .bat solution using [START /WAIT|http://www.computerhope.com/starthlp.htm]

Dynamic charting in J2ME using SVG - based on SQL query from a web server
Hi
I am creating a J2ME application which needs to generate dynamic charts for the user.
The data for generating the charts is stored on a web server. In order to have minimal computations on the mobile device, I want to generate the charts on the web server itself.
I have written a code which generates svg (svg tiny) charts dynamically on a web server based on sql queries on a database . Now I want a J2ME client app to be able to retrieve this data through a web service.
Can someone guide me as to how to return svg files from a java web service.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Regards
SparshHi
Actually, I am developing my application using Netbeans 6. In order to connect to my web service , I am using the J2ME client to web service as the type of my project and that uses the above mentioned API's.
My question is how do I enable my web service to return a SVG file , and then how do I retrieve it in the J2ME client. Any example application that anyone knows online would be really helpful -

Calling SQL*Loader from PERL; Message 2100 not found
I am trying a simple PERL script to call sqlldr and load data into an Oracle 10G database. I get the error message:
Message 2100 not found; No message file for product=RDBMS, facility=UL
Many forums have said the answer to this is to set environment variables like ORACLE_HOME and PATH. Even having done that I get this error. My script looks like:

$ENV{ORACLE_HOME}='E:\CommonApps\oracle';
print "Oracle HOME is: ";
print $ENV{ORACLE_HOME};
print "\n";
$ENV{PATH} = 'E:\CommonApps\oracle;E:\CommonApps\oracle\bin';

Is there anything else I need to do to make this work? The E:\CommonApps\oracle\rdbms\mesg directory has 3 files: kgpus.msb, ocius.msb, oraus.msb.

but nothing happened. just a black box opened and closed immediately. no log files, bad files or records were inserted.The problem with windows -> run is that it opens a command window and then automatically closes it when the command is finished, so if there were any errors you won't get a chance to see them.
Use:
Windows -> Run -> cmd <enter>
which will open up a command window.
In that command window, issue your sqlldr command as you did previously.
Then see what output/errors you get. -
Calling oracle SQL Loader from java program
Hi,
I want to insert data into oracle tables from a text files containing fixed length fields. I am using SQLLoader to achieve this. The requirement is to call the SQLLoader within the java program.
Does anyone know how to call SQL Loader from java program?
Thanks,
VarshaSimply "exec" the sqlldr program with the parameters you need to pass to it.
Runtime.exec (........)
Try to pass all parameters needed including the username and password, and use the option "silent" to avoid output, and the option "log" to have a log file of the modifications that sqlldr has done to the database. -

How to execute SQLLDR from web forms in IAS.
You need to set the ORACLE_HOME to the one which has sqlldr.
You can create a DOS BAT file like this for Windows and call this
using the HOST built-in.
If you are using this on web then the HOST will execute in the
Application Server machine. So, files should be in that machine.
REM=======For Windows===============
REM filename Mysqlldr.BAT
REM my file to execute sqlldr
set ORACLE_HOME=D:\oracle\iSuites
set PATH=D:\oracle\iSuites\bin;%PATH%
sqlldr scott/tiger@l817 D:\Mycontrol.ctl DATA=mydata.dat LOG=mylog.log BAD=mybad.log
REM======================
Similarily, you can create a Shell script for UNIX system.
