Running SQL*Loader as:
sqlload userid=... control=... data=... log=...
HOSTSTR logical has been set to same value as your connection string but
without domain name.
When you have specified connect string (ie. SCOTT/TIGER@DATABASE) but no
domain you receive these errors:
SQL*Loader-704: Internal error: ulconnect: OCIServerAttach [0]
ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve service name
When you have not specified connect string (ie. SCOTT/TIGER) you receive
these errors:
SQL*Loader-704: Internal error: ulconnect: OCIServerAttach [0]
ORA-12162: TNS:service name is incorrectly specified
Your sqlnet.ora has:
names.default_domain entry = world
The syntax in your tnsnames.ora entry is correct.
Your entry in tnsnames.ora does not include the .WORLD extension (default
domain from sqlnet.ora).
Solution Description
Specify the .WORLD in your tnsnames.ora and also in your connect string.
This will remove the error.
Also, ensure you are not hitting Bug 893290. Can you connect to the database from that server using sqlplus?

This is the Oracle Application Express (formerly known as HTML DB) forum. SQL*Loader related questions should be asked in the Database SQL forum (PL/SQL or Database General Forum (General Database Discussions but being a nice guy familiar with SQL*Loader I will "give it a go".
The error message you are getting indicates that you have a syntax error in your control file. The syntax for the APPEND keyword is APPEND INTO TABLE table_name. So change "APPEND INTO xxgfs_gen_text_lookups" to "APPEND INTO TABLE xxgfs_gen_text_lookups".

Load .csv file data with OWb Process flow using Web

Hi,
I Have a file in my local machine( Machines on multiple user's), need to load data through Web user interface.
Let's say have a web page with multiple radio buttons respective to different sources, by clicking on each button will pass the path of .csv file to through Application, (API or Java programming interface) execute owb Process flow as a accepting file path as a input parameter to execute for loading purpose.
Should facilitate view data, Update data through web based on user requests.
Need your guidence how can i implement this with OWb 11g R2.
Assuming with Web browser functionality. Please confirm it and if yes, please throw some light how could be the steps to implement.
Thanks

Hi David,
Thanks for your reply.
Undersatnd your proposed solution.But my requirement should be as follows.
1. Currently under consideration using web page likely to be implement with Java, allowing users to load .csv file data into staging area.(Loading flat file into Data abse table)
Case 1, Assuming OWB software is not installed on user machine. I think no.
Is it possible through web page (this case Java page) to trigger java procedure/Pl/SQl procedure or integration of both to laod data into staging area.If yes, how it could effect performance of data load with 1 GB file.
Case 2, OWb client software installed on User machine, while runtime passing parameters means passing manually?
In case it is automated, how should i pass machine name & Path to owb runtime web browser.
Could you please show me guidence how should I acheive this functionality with APEX customization part?
Thanks agin for your support.

Don't re-invent the wheel.
If your CSV is on the database server (it must be if you are using UTL_FILE), use an external table
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11882_01/server.112/e22490/et_concepts.htm#SUTIL011
If your CSV is on a client PC, use Sql*Loader

Upload csv file data to sql server tables

Hi all,
I want clients to upload csv file from their machines to the server.
Then the program should read all the data from the csv file and do a bulk insert into the SQL Server tables.
Please help me of how to go about doing this.
Thanx in advance.....

1) Use a multipart form with input type="file" to let the client choose a file.
2) Get the binary stream and put it in a BufferedReader.
3) Read each line and map it to a DTO and add each DTO to a list.
4) Persist the list of DTO's.

Use PL/SQL procedure to guard against malformed CSV files before upload

Hi all,
In my CSV upload utility, I've implemented error checking procedures, but they are invoked only AFTER data has been uploaded to temp table. This doesn't catch the following sample scenarios:
1. The CSV is malformed, with some rows shifted due to fields and separators missing here and there.
2. User has chosen a wrong CSV to upload (most likely number of fields mismatch)
I'm wondering if it is a good idea to have procedure to read in the CSV, scan each line, count the number of fields (null fields but with delimiters showing the field exist is ok) for each record. If every single record matches the required number of fields for that table, then the CSV is ok, and the insert from external table to temp table is allow. This will ensure at least the CSV file has a valid matrix size for the target table, but rest of error checking is left until after temp table is populated.
One of my concerns is, I specify "missing field values are null" in the external table parameters, which is necessary since not all fields are required. Does this specification causes a row with missing trailing separators still considered valid? If so then the stored procedure must be programmed to omit such a case.
What do you think? Many thanks.

Hi, Cuauhtemoc Amox
Thank you for your advice. I have set web adi using PL SQL interface.
I have decided to go futher
i have a procedure like that
procedure delete_old_data ( p_id in number, p_description in varchar2)
as
begin
               begin
               if g_flag ='N' then
               delete from xx_test;
                g_flag='Y';
                else null;
                end if;
                end;
insert into xx_test (p_id,p_descriptiom);
end;
G_FLAG is a global variable with default value ='N' in my package. When web_adi upload
first row from excel sheet, then procedure delete all data from table and change g_flag to 'Y'.
All other rows uploads succesfully; it works fine.
But when user change data in excel sheet and try to upload second time. DELETE_OLD_DATA procedure doesnt work in proper way.
I have found what problem is. when user use same template and try to upload data several times there is same SESSION_ID in database.
i.e. g_flag ='Y' when user try to upload second time. But when user log off and create template again it is work properly.
My question is: How i can different upload attempts? May be there is some id for each upload proccess.
if i can use this ID in my procedure user will have opportunity to use same template.
Thank you

Flat file data upload - happens for only 1 column

Dear Experts,
Goal: To upload data from flat file (with 3 columns-char3,language,text) to characteristic (texts).
Problem: I am doing through CSV File but when i click on preview i am able to see data only in first column, the other two columns are empty.
More details:
I have created this data source in data source tab.
Adapter - Load text type file from Workstation.
data format -Seperated with seperator (CSV).
Data Separator     - ,
Escape Sign     - "
File name      - C:\Documents and Settings\hans\Desktop\mtype.txt
Fields
/BIC/TSMOVTYPE           CHAR     3
LANGU               CHAR     2
TXTSH               CHAR     20
Can anyone give me idea?
regards
BI Learner

Hi,
You can try this:
1. After ESCAPE SIGN, there will be an option " Number of rows to be left". Put 1 there.
2. In your flat file, leave the 1st row blank or add anything in the first row for all the three columns.Save as CSV file. Note that the file must have the same sequence as in the data source.
3. Check your transformations. Data source fields should be mapped correctly to the right side.
try to load now. Hope it'll help.

How to align the CSV file on upload?

Hi All,
I have to upload a CSV file as an attachment in a mail and the data's in the internal table which has to be uploaded in the CSV file are seperated using commas which on uploading appear in the CSV file in the same column but i need the data's to be seperated in different columns and different lines...
Pls help it is very urgent..
Thanks in Advance...

Hi
For my understanding you are talking about download.
For that you have to concatenate each fields of final internal table (gt_itab for example) using comma as below.
TYPES: BEGIN OF ty_lines,
         line(1023) TYPE c,
       END OF ty_lines.
DATA: l_filename TYPE string VALUE 'C:\temp\abcd.csv',
      gt_lines TYPE TABLE OF ty_lines,
      gw_lines TYPE ty_lines.
LOOP AT gt_itab INTO gw_itab.
    CONCATENATE gw_itab-f1
                gw_itab-f2 .....
           INTO gw_lines-line
           SEPARATED BY ','.
     APPEND gw_lines TO gt_lines.
ENDLOOP.
CALL FUNCTION 'GUI_DOWNLOAD'
    EXPORTING
      filename                = l_filename
      filetype                = 'ASC'
      confirm_overwrite       = 'X'
      no_auth_check           = 'X'
    TABLES
      data_tab                = gt_lines.

Best Practice for Flat File Data Uploaded by Users

Hi,
I have the following scenario:
1.     Users would like to upload data from flat file and subsequently view their reports.
2.     SAP BW support team would not be involved in data upload process.
3.     Users would not go to RSA1 and use InfoPackages & DTPs. Hence, another mechanism for data upload is required.
4.     Users consists of two group, external and internal users. External users would not have access to SAP system. However, access via a portal is acceptable.
What are the best practice we should adopt for this scenario?
Thanks!

Hi,
I can share what we do in our project.
We get the files from the WEB to the Application Server in path which is for this process.The file placed in the server has a naming convention based on ur project,u can name it.Everyday the same name file is placed in the server with different data.The path in the infopackage is fixed to that location in the server.After this the process chain trigers and loads the data from that particular path which is fixed in the application server.After the load completes,a copy of file is taken as back up and deleted from that path.
So this happens everyday.

Data upload problem in delta update from 1st ODS to 2nd ODS

Dear Friends,
I am loading data from one ODS to another. The update mode was full upload. Sometime back an error occurred in activation of the first ODS. The error was: Full updates already available in ODS ,Cannot update init./delta. So currently daily records are pulled but not added i.e. transferred recs = 4000 but added recs = 0.
When I looked for a solution in SDN I found that using program RSSM_SET_REPAIR_FULL_FLAG for 2nd ODS will reset all full uploads to Repair Full Request which I have already done for 2nd ODS. Then initialize once and pull delta.
But problem is that I cannot set update mode to delta as I am pulling some 80,000 records in 2nd ODS from 1st ODS with around 14 lacs records daily based on some data-selection filters in infopkg. But do not see any parameters for data-selction in delta mode.
Please suggest.
Regards,
Amit Srivastava

Dear Sirs,
Due to this error in activation in 2nd ODS daily data upload is failing in 1st ODS.
To correct this I converted all full upload requests in 2nd ODS to Repair full requests.
But now when I scheduled the infopkg today with full upload again data was transferred but not added.
I know I cannot have init./ delta so what possibly can now be done in this scenario. Please help.
Regards,
Amit Srivastava

Commas in my CSV file data

Hi everyone,
I am trying to create a csv file.
One field that I am trying to out put is the description and has commas, that is throwing my columns out of sync.
I have tries putting the charactor ' around the data but all it does is output that charactor in the data.
my code is this
     public File createFile(Vector downloadObject){
          Iterator iterator = downloadObject.iterator();
          String query ="";
          try {
               Format formatter2 = new SimpleDateFormat("ddMMyyyy");
               String fileName="DELIVERY" + ".csv";
               File file = new File(fileName);
               StringBuffer output = new StringBuffer();
               while (iterator.hasNext()){
                    VODownloadObject downloadObject2 = (VODownloadObject)iterator.next();
                    query =
                         "'" +
                         downloadObject2.getStrokeNumber().trim()
                         + "','"+ downloadObject2.getJdeIdNumber()
                         + "','"+ downloadObject2.getRollNumber()
                         + "','"+ downloadObject2.getSupplier()
                         + "',"+ ",'"+ downloadObject2.getQuality()
                         + "','"+ downloadObject2.getColour()
                         + "','"+ downloadObject2.getSupplierRollNumber()
                         + "',"+ ",'"+ downloadObject2.getDeliveryDate()

                         + "',"+ ","+ ","+ ",";
                    output.append(query + "\r\n");
               BufferedWriter out = new BufferedWriter(new FileWriter(fileName));
               out.write(output.toString());
               out.close();
               return file;
          } catch (IOException e) {
               e.printStackTrace();
               return null;
     }the output is this.
'PA?????T','2/664659 ','153920','Menswear Formal, Shirts ',,'null','null',' ',,'11/07/2006','null',,,'-330000',' ',
in the "'Menswear Formal, Shirts " field, this is one field but it is splitting up into 2 fields because there is a comma after Formal. Anyone know how I can keep this as one field but with a comma in it?
thanks in advance

Data upload problem

Hi,all:
 Now I face the problem as follow:
 1.The delta upload can not run automatic finished.I can find some course in SM58,How to solve this problem? Can you give me some helps?
 2.When I delta upload,system message like this:
Processing in Warehouse timed out; processing steps mising
Diagnosis
Processing the request in the BW system is taking a long time and the processing step Second step in the update has still not been executed.
System response
<DS:DE.RSCALLER>Caller is still missing.
Procedure
Check in the process overview in the BW system whether processes are running in the BW system under the background user.
If this is not the case, check the short dump overview in the BW system.
 What is wrong with the data upload and how to solve it? Can you give me some advice?
Regards&Thanks!
zagory

Hi Zagory,
I think at the time of this particular job starting there are other jobs running with Background User Owner or there might be other background jobs running with Priority A . SO try to reschedule the JOb at some later point in time where system is less busy ......or one more option is to try to increase the System Dialog run Time in RZ10 transaction ...Ask ur basis team they will do for you ...
But try first option first......
Assign points if it helps.....

Manipulate CSV File Data

Hello,
Our Active Directory structure only lists the person's manager in the format of an email address. After running a Get-ADUser command and exporting its data to a csv file. I want to import the csv file which will be in the format shown below, then manipulate
it, so the manager1 field is converted to the relevant objectGUID and populated in the Manager_objectGUID field.
I'm completely new to PowerShell so any assistance would be much appreciated.

CSV file data load error

Hi,
Data load from Flat File.

Flat file data upload to ODS failed

Hi guys,
While loading the flat file data to ODS, it gets fails immediately without loading single record. Error message shows ::
" Error when opening the data file <file name> (origin A)."
"Error in the data request"
"Error occurred in the data selection"
I am trying to load the data manually thru Infopackage and file is lying in the Application Server and full access given to it. But the important part is when we try to load the file again without doing any changes, it run fine and loads the data without any issues. This happens with every load & everyday.
Any solutions?
Regards
Sanjiv
