Count number of rows inserted...

Question

Hi all,
I need to develop a shell script which inserts data from one db to another and then insert the number of rows inserted in another table.
pls find the script below:
export ORACLE_SID=msbep001test
export ORACLE_HOME=/voldev/app8i/oracle/product/8.1.7.4
error_code="ORA-"
error_log="/voldev/app8i/oracle/product/8.1.7.4/scripts/logs/log_test`date '+%d%m%y%H%M'`.txt"
rm -f `echo $error_log`
/voldev/app8i/oracle/product/8.1.7.4/bin/sqlplus mrep001/XXXXXXXX@msbep001test << EOF |tee `echo $error_log`
set serveroutput on;
set timing on;
set feedback on;
insert /*+ APPEND */ into poonam nologging select * from FCT_ALL_FCR_TXNS_MMDD@drp where rownum <5;
commit;
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE(SQL%ROWCOUNT);
EOF
myvar=`cat "$error_log" |grep "$error_code"|grep -v ORA-00604|grep -v ORA-00372|grep -v ORA-01110|grep -v ORA-01552|grep -v ORA-06512|grep -v ORA-02063|wc -l`
if [ $myvar -gt 0 ]
then
echo ""
echo ""
echo "ERROR in inserting data!"
echo "Please Contact Database Administrator"
echo ""
echo ""
exit 1
else
echo ""
echo ""
echo "Inserting of data OK"
echo ""
echo ""
exit 0
fi
can anyone help me pls...

Funny script.
Let me guess. The number of inserted rows is (max) 4 (as you have where rownum <5;)
and the DBMS_OUTPUT shows 0 (as there is a statement between INSERT and SQL%ROWCOUNT)
There is nothing like:
then insert the number of rows inserted in another table.You want this:
declare cnt number;
begin
insert /*+ APPEND */ into poonam nologging select * from FCT_ALL_FCR_TXNS_MMDD@drp;
cnt := SQL%ROWCOUNT;
insert into result_table (rows_inserted) value (cnt);
commit;
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE(cnt);
end;
/And, never, never never, user INSERT INTO .... SELECT * in real code. Whenever somebody adds fields or changes the "order" you might either fail or "insert first_name into last_name".
And the "error handler" on UNIX just writes a message to a LOG file? No status, no active monitoring. Risky!
And what happens if an error occurs and it's not one of the listed ones?
