Clear Screen, Sql plus Error, in release 10.2.0.1.0

Hi there,
I'm having problem in using clear screen command in SQLPlus utility of Oracle Release 10.2.0.1.0. When executing clear screen in SQL Plus ( in command prompt) in windows machine, suddenly a dialogue box opens and saying that "SQLPlus encountered an error and sorry for inconvenience "
Is this the problem with OS or Oracle Client?
Could anyone please help me in resolving this issue?
Thanks
Raja

So that is the problem with Oracle client only, not with the OS configuration and all.... shall i assume?

SQL Plus Error - "Can't open file" when spooling

Hi:
I have a user who is either able or unable to spool when running a script depending on what Oracle user she logs in as. She's always logging in as the same Linux user but connecting to Oracle as different Oracle users via SQL Plus. When spool files are created they are created with that user's account and group settings, so the OS account seems to be fine.
I'm having a problem with the idea that there is an Oracle role or something that controls this. Spool isn't UTL_FILE. Is this a SQL Plus application setting or something?
We're using Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.2.0.4.0 - 64bi
Thanks

Well, I'm working off an email so maybe they cut and pasted and maybe they didn't. They say the error is
spool error: "Cannot create spool file"
I'll have to recreate their situation and see what it really says. But either way, my confusion is how this same OS user can log in as a different Oracle user and spool away. Perhaps the comment above is correct. It worked the first time and they tried to run under the other account without removing the current file. I tend not to think so because these users have been running similar reports for years and they usually have to remove the old output file before re-running.

Yes I realize that the JSERV is pointing in the incorrect are
the J drive is a flashdrive
In the Registry I have just deleted the 2nd Orahome directory which was on the J drive
so all I have now left is the Orahome directory on the C drive
how do I make corrections so that from now on the JSERV, Path, and WV_Gateway._CFG point to the C drive

You don't have to use a for loop to do the job, which is a slow process. try this instead.

SQL Plus error

I'm working with Ubuntu 10.04 Server.
I just installed Oracle XE 11g (11.2.0 specifically)
All I did was download the .rpm file and converted it to a deb (using alien) and then ran the deb (using dpkg). Everything seems to be installed fine however when I try to run sqlplus I get the following message:
Error 6 initializing SQL*Plus
SP2-0667: Message file sp1(lang).msb file not found
SP2-0750: You may need to set your ORACLE_HOME to your Oracle software directory
However the oracle_env.sh states that ORACLE_HOME = /u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/xe which is the correct path (at least I think it is). So does anyone know what the issue is?
Thanks

I've checked all of the log files in the log directory and there doesn't seem to have been any errors in them.That's good. So we can assume most things worked as intended.
Path looks wrong... But no idea how it got to be wrong or how to fix it.It does. Did you execute the following from Step 9)
echo "" >>./.profile
echo '. /u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/xe/bin/oracle_env.sh' >>./.profileThis should set up your environment as needed. In the guide, this had been done for the "oracle" user only. If you use a different account, you'll have to either source or include that environment script as well.
Please also check whether it has been created correctly by running
cat /u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/xe/bin/oracle_env.shThe output should read
export ORACLE_HOME=/u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/xe
export ORACLE_SID=XE
export NLS_LANG=`$ORACLE_HOME/bin/nls_lang.sh`
export PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/bin:$PATHThough possibly not mandatory, you could add
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:$ORACLE_HOME/libto that script. This will set the library path to include the oracle libraries, such as client libraries.
LANG-settings are okay, by the way.

Oracle SQL*PLUS Error

Dear,
When I run a complex query or a query with huge numnber of records, My sql*plus session is aborting by giving a message. Is this an Oracle session problem or an OS problem? Please suggest,

Error 57 initializing SQL*Plus

i am not able to start sql plus. It gives me the below mentioned error message. I did not have any problem when i worked a month back but now when i am going to start again, it gives me this error. In between, the only change i brought into my PC is the installation of Kaspersky Antivirus and doing the full scan?

Error 57 initializing SQL*Plus
Error loading message shared library
thanksThis error is raised during the early startup processing for sqlplus and is, by nature, rather generic. Since it is raised during initialization, it's quite possible that not all libraries that might be needed for additional details (such as localized error messages) are loaded.
As the only thing you mention has changed is installation of Kaspersky, that suggests it is blocking a required library from being loaded. This error can also be raised when there is insufficient memory available (which would also prevent loading of required libraries, etc).
Here's a simple test you can do to illustrate this (obviously not on a production system, etc!):
$ cd \Oracle\11.2\database\BIN
$ dir /s /b oraclient11.dll
C:\Oracle\11.2\database\BIN\oraclient11.dll
$ rem temporarily rename the Oracle RDBMS Client Library for testing
$ ren oraclient11.dll oraclient11.dll.save
$ rem this will raise error 57 since a required library could not be loaded during initialization
$ sqlplus.exe /nolog
Error 57 initializing SQL*Plus
Error loading message shared library
$ rem be sure to change back!
$ ren oraclient11.dll.save oraclient11.dllRegards,

Verify the contents of the following subkey in your Windows2000 registry:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ORACLE\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ORACLE\KEY_YOUR_HOME_NAME
Your Windows 2000 registry must contain several minimum parameters, defined as registry entries inside the above subkey (See http://download-east.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/win.102/b14304/registry.htm#i1006544). One of them is ORACLE_HOME, which could have been accidentally removed or changed. ORACLE_HOME must contain the home OS path to the SQL*Plus executable in your machine (For example, C:\Oracle\OraDB10g). I tried changing the name of the ORACLE_HOME registry entry in my machine and received the same exact messages you did when launching SQL*Plus.
In your OS, verify also Control Panel > System Properties > Advanced > Environment Variables > System Variables > Path, and make sure the above ORACLE_HOME's path is included in the Path variable (preferably in the starting position)

Problem entering password sql plus in wnidows vista

hello,
after i successful installation in windows vista, i try run SQL Plus
when i try running SQL PLUS, i have to entered my username and password.
Entering my username is no problem. but when i try entering password, i cannot entering input password because no matter what i do, my password does not appear on the screen SQL Plus
Is something wrong about installation?
Please help me.

Well, that is why it is called password. You do not want anyone to see it while you are typing, right? Just type in the password (you should see * for each typed password character) and hit enter. And if you are running non-gui version of SQL*Plus (in command window) you will not see any characters (even *) while typing password.

SQL*Plus Not responding when calling edit command

When I write a Query in SQL Plus 9.2.0.1.0, Installed in Windows XP SP2, and running EDIT command, notepad opens and then SQL Plus and Notepad both hangs. By killing notepad.exe process I can continue working in SQL Plus.
I tried changing the default editor to ultra edit, wordpad, etc. But It seems to be a SQL Plus error, with all editors I set up, Editor Hangs.
The same things happende me installing the Oracle 9i client in another machine.
Need help with this, thanks!!

Sounds strange - and does not sound like a SQL*Plus problem. SQL*Plus uses the CreateProcess() Win32 API call to create the editor process. Then it waits for this process' process handle to cease to exist before it continues. SQL*Plus does not "hang" - it simply waits for the spawned process to terminate before it continues.
It is not possible for one process to "hang" another process it created via the CreateProcess() call. It will need to interact with that spawned process in other ways to make it hang. Caveat: unless the spawned process does not "like" the parameters passed to it via the CreateProcess() call...
The only parameter passed is the filename (usually afiedt.buf) by SQL*Plus - and that should not cause the editor to hang.
Unless there is a specific Oracle bug you're running in, this problem sounds more like a Windows issue. After using the ED command in SQL*Plus, can you manually view and edit the afiedt.buf file it created?

Cleaning screen at SQL*PLUS Worksheet

Is there any simple command, macro or magical trick to clean the lower screen? (the one were you can not write and displays the data from your selects, prompts, ORA-errors, etc...)
thanks

Ok, I thought that clear button would clear only the upper screen, but if I click and focus with the mouse at the lower screen it will clean the lower screen.
Thanks
PD: Yes I was talking about SQL*PLUS Worksheet, not SQLPLUS

Clear screen from sql file

at sqlplus prompt, I can type either HOST CLS or CLEAR SCREEN and both work..
but when I put either of them in an .sql file and run it from sql with @c:\file.sql
both commands error with:
ORA-06550
PLS-00103 encountered 'CLS' or 'SCREEN'
OS IS Windows 7 with Oracle 11.1.0.6 client
my goal is to run a dbms_output line while in a loop
so the data shows on the screen and refreshes when it is changed
without clearing the screen, it just shows over and over and scrolls by a list of them very fast

Dbms_output does not display anything while the PL/SQL code is running. In fact, it doesn't actually display anything, ever. Dbms_output merely puts text to be displayed into a buffer. When control returns to SQL*Plus, then SQL*Plus displays all of the buffered text together. So if your PL/SQL block consists of a loop that takes 10 seconds per iteration, and you go through the loop 6 times, you will wait a full 60 seconds before seeing any output, and then see all 6 lines as quickly as PL/SQL can display them.

Clear screen in "Run SQL Command Line" causes the utility to dump in Window

Just for your notice... I have not checked if i can reproduce this on Linux platform or on second node running Windows XP Pro.
But if I use "Run SQL Command Line" utility and do
clear screen
The utility dumps, (not the database though only the utlility)
Maybe some other people could confirm if this findings is a bug or not and if it is a port specific issue with Windows XP only.

Error when connecting to SQL*PLUS via ODBC to Excel

OS: Windows 2000 Professional
Oracle DB: 9i release 2
SQL*Plus: Release 9.2.0.1.0
MS Excel: 2000
===================
When I try to connect to SQL*PLUS via ODBC to Excel with "connect scott/tiger@odbc:libro" I get the following error:
ORA-03121: no interface driver connected - function not performed

SQL Server objects are commonly case sensitive, so please surround the column and table names by double quotes:
SELECT "Type_PK_ID" FROM "dbo"."boundaries"@sqlserver
SIDE NOTE: Oracle is by default not case sensitive and all object names are stored in upper case. To get case sensitive objects they need to be surrounded by double quotes. In HSODBC case sensitive table names were commonly found even when not surrounded by double quotes as the gateway used internal SQL Server methods to find the correct table nameing - this method does not work for column names. So to be able to query a case sensitive column it needs to be surrounded by double quotes and the table name must be written as stored in the source database.
