Does external table creation creates redo log ?
Hi all,
I am on Oracle 10.1 on Solaris, but my question is generic.
I am creating an external table from a CSV text file. In the process of creating and reading (using) this external table any REDO information will be generated?
Till 8i, for loading CSV files, I would load the file with SQL*loader to a staging table and then process the data. This process of loading to staging table will create redo log information (unless I use NOLOGGING, which I cannot use for some reason).
Since 9i and 10g, I can create external table of the CSV file and use it. What can be the internal working of external table? Does it load the data to some temporary table internally (transparant to us)? or does Oracle reads the external source file as it needs it?
Important question is, in the whole affair of using a read-only external table, will Oracle create redo log information?
Please help.
Regards

If the nologging parameter is legal on a create statement for an external table it will have no effect since DDL is always logged. The insert select will generate redo for the inserts into the target table so again creating the external table as nologging would have no effect on the subsequent use of the table.
If you just select against the external table then no redo should be generated.

Bad file is not created during the external table creation.
Hello Experts,
I have created a script for external table in Oracle 10g DB. Everything is working fine except it does not create the bad file, But it creates the log file. I Cann't figure out what is the issue. Because my shell scripts is failing and the entire program is failing. I am attaching the table creation script and the shell script where it is refering and the error. Kindly let me know if something is missing. Thanks in advance

Asynch Hot Log mode does not use hot (online) redo logs
Version 10.2
We have just set up a test of the Asynch Hot Log replication according to Chap 16 of the Data Warehousing guide.
We can see data put into the change table. However, it seems that data gets written to the change table ONLY after a log switch. This would suggest that the capture process is not reading the online logs, but is only reading the archived logs.
I don't think this can be correct behavior because the docs indicate that Oracle "seamlessly switches" between the online and the archived redo logs.
Is there a flag or something to set to cause the online logs to be available to the capture process? Or is this a bug? Has anyone else observed this behavior?
Thanks for any insight.
-- Chris CurzonAccording to the 10g Dataguard docs, section 2.5.1:
"Physical standby databases do not use an online redo log, because physical standby databases are not opened for read/write I/O."yes, those are used when database is open.
You should not perform any changes in Standby. Even if those exist online redo log files, whats the difficulty you have seen?
These will be used whenever you performed switchover/failover. So nothing to worry on this.
Is this a case of the STANDBY needing at least a notion of where the REDO logs will need to be should a failover occur, and if the files are already there, the standby database CONTROLFILE will hold onto them, as they are not doing any harm anyway?Then oracle functionality itself harm if you think in that way. When they not used in open then what the harm with that?
Standby_File_management --> for example if you add any datafile, those information will be in archives/redos once they applied on standby those will be added automatically when it is set to AUTO if its manual, then it creates a unnamed file in $ORACLE_HOME/dbs location later you have to rename that file and recovery need to perform .

while trying to select the data from external table, am facing the below error.
{code}
ORA-29913: error in executing ODCIEXTTABLEOPEN callout ORA-29400: data cartridge error KUP-00554: error encountered while parsing access parameters KUP-01005: syntax error: found "identifier": expecting one of: "and, column, exit, (, ltrim, lrtrim, ldrtrim, missing, notrim, rtrim, reject" KUP-01008: the bad identifier was: LDTRIM KUP-01007: at line 4 column 77
{code}
can anyone suggest me how to resolve this.
Regards,
Sakthi.I think i found the problem:
KUP-01008: the bad identifier was: LDTRIM KUP-01007: at line 4 column 77There is no LDTRIM. It is LDRTRIM or LRTRIM.
this should work

Creation of External table by using XML files.
I am in the process of loading of XML file data into the database table. I want to use the External Table feature for this loading. Though we have the external table feature with Plain/text file, is there any process of XML file data loading into the Database table by using External table?
I am using Oracle 9i.
Appreciate your responses.
Regards
Edited by: user652422 on Dec 16, 2008 11:00 PMHi,
The XML file which U posted is working fine and that proved that external table can be created by using xml files.
Now My problem is that I have xml files which is not as the book.xml, my xml file is having some diff format. below is the extracts of the file ...

My problem is the Item Name and Direction the value of both(ex PSCReceived or UASReceived) will be treated as the coulmn name of the table and '0' would be the value of that column. I am confused how to create the external table creation program for that.
I would really appreciate your responses.

Error Creating View on External Table
I create my oracle directory connected as SYS as SYSDBA and grant read,write to public:
CREATE OR REPLACE DIRECTORY ER_ADMIN_DIR AS 'C:\win32app\ingr\ER\ER_Init\scripts';
grant read,write on directory ER_ADMIN_DIR to public;
I creat my external table from SYS to reside in another schema called DRTEST:
CREATE TABLE DRTEST.SPEC_REQUIRED (TABLE_NAME VARCHAR2(100), COLUMN_NAME VARCHAR2(100))
ORGANIZATION EXTERNAL (TYPE ORACLE_LOADER DEFAULT DIRECTORY ER_ADMIN_DIR
ACCESS PARAMETERS
(RECORDS DELIMITED BY NEWLINE
FIELDS TERMINATED BY ','
MISSING FIELD VALUES ARE NULL
LOCATION ('atts_in_red.tx')
REJECT LIMIT UNLIMITED ;
I can select from the table and all is good at this point.
However, I get an error when I try to create a view (in DRTEST from SYS) based on the external table.
CREATE VIEW DRTEST.MYVIEW1 AS SELECT * FROM DRTEST.SPEC_REQUIRED;
CREATE VIEW DRTEST.MYVIEW1 AS SELECT * FROM DRTEST.SPEC_REQUIRED
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-06564: object ER_ADMIN_DIR does not exist
(note I'm still connected as SYS as SYSDBA here)
I can create the view if I connect to DRTEST and run the exact same create view statement there. Is there something in Oracle that prevents me from doing this from the SYS account? I usually think of SYS as having the "Power of God to do all things".
I have to create the external table and view on several schema's and I don't want the user to have to connect to each schema separately.
TinaTina,
I think you are facing bug 2948123 (CREATE VIEW ON EXTERNAL TABLE ORA-6564). The workaround is to connect (in your case) as user DRTEST and then perform the CREATE VIEW statement (you tested this already). Or (according to the bug description) create the view under the SYS schema itself. -

External table creation went through successfully but am getting error while reading data. Am quite sure error is because of above line in red color. Could you please help me in transforming logic.
Thanks in Advance,
APLet's start with the basics...
1) You state that you are getting an error. What error do you get? Is this an Oracle error (i.e. ORA-xxxxx)? If so, please include the error number and the error message as well as the triggering statement. Or is the problem that rows are getting written to the reject file and errors are being written to the log file? If so, what record(s) are being rejected and what are the reasons given in the log file? Or perhaps the problem is something else?
2) You state that you are quite sure that the problem relates to the hilighted code. What makes you quite sure of this?

Oracle External Table SELECT FROM problem from workstation
At Solaris Oracle database server console.
Created directory on the Solaris server as Oracle owner.
As SYS created oracle directory object on that Solaris directory
Granted read/write to SCHEMA_OWNER on that oracle directory object.
Using OS Oracle user, moved a tab-delimited flat file into the Solaris directory.
Logged on a SCHEMA_OWNER using SQLPLUS on the Solaris database server.
Ran external table script in SQLPLUS.
External table was created.
Ran Select * from ext_table.
Appropriate dataset returned.
So at the Oracle Solaris server console,
the create external table script worked without errors,
and a select from statement on the external table worked without errors.
Move to developer workstation:
Logged on as SCHEMA_OWNER using SQLPLUS on Windows workstation.
TNSNAMES of course points to the Solaris database server.
Ran the external table script in SQLPLUS.
External table was created.
Ran Select * from ext_table.
This failed with these errors:
ORA29913 error executing ODCIEXTTABLEOPEN callout
ORA29400 data cartridge error
cant open logfile.log
OS permission denied
ORA06512 sys.oracle_loader line 19
So how can I select from external tables from a windows workstation?
Any guidance on this problem would be appreciated.Thank you for your response.
I am not creating the external table on the workstation.
In both cases,
from the Solaris console
and from the Windows workstation
the external table is being created on the Solaris file system
in an Oracle Directory object
running an SQL script from SQLPLUS prompt.
The external table creator, schema owner, has read and write permissions
granted by SYS on the oracle directory object.
The problem is:
Logged in as the schema owner,
you can select * from ext_table from the Solaris console SQLPLUS,
but you can not select * from ext_table from the Windows workstation SQLPLUS.
You can DROP TABLE ext_table from the Windows workstation SQLPLUS.
You just cannot select * from ext_table from the Windows workstation SQLPLUS.
I guess as a test,
I can drop from the ext_table creation script the references
to discardfile, badfile, and logfile,
and remove this other file objects from the equation...
which appears to be a file permissions problem. -
Case statement logic for External Tables
Hi All,
Is there anyway I can perform a CASE logic in External table creation script?
I have a column which is supposed to receive only Numbers. But if i inadvertently receive a String, i want to insert NULL for that instance.
My table has the following creation syntax: ( I have to make a check for the NumValue column - althought I am using VARCHAR2(50) I have the transformation stage where the NumValue column has a CASE logic ; my entire file is getting rejected just because a single row in the input dat file is coming as a String)

While importing , when i seen the log file , it is failing the create the external table. Getting the error "ORA-00911: invalid character".
Can some one suggest how to import external tables
Addressing this issue will be highly appriciated.
NaveenHi Srinath,
When i observed the create table syntax of external table from import dump log file, it show few lines as below. I could not understand these special characters. And create table definationis failing with special character viz ORA-00911: invalid character

(I only want to give USER2 access to two of the four columns.)As you have demonstrated, I guess the view approach only works for database tables. External tables are actually files on the file system. Even through OS, it is not possible to grant READ/WRITE access to only part of the file. The access is for entire file. An "External Table" is just a "wrapper" provided by oracle (using data cartridge) to allow user to be able to access the file as a "table". So it can definitely not do something that underlying OS can not do.
p.s. In fact, oracle does not even allow to edit data in external tables using SQL.Why not just make a second external table (only including the 2 columns you need) and grant select directly on that to the user. I know you say "views only" but there's an exception to every rule ... just because it's called a table doesn't make it so. You could argue an external table is nothing more than a fancy view.
Worst case, make a view on top of the second external table.

LOCATION ('variable_filename.csv')
It works fine when I put the name of the .csv hardcoded in the script. Like this: LOCATION ('Kassa_20130406130014.csv')
I have written a function which returns the filename, but when I use the function in LOCATION (function()) I get an error: ora-00905: missing keyword
How can I call a function in LOCATION ()?Hi,
I'm not sure but I think you need re-create external table.
Create procedure that drops and re-creates external table dynamically with new file name.
Or use e.g. DBMS_SCHEDULER to call OS script that renames file always to same name for external table.

Showing Text file as external table without trimming spaces
Hi all:
I am trying to display a text file from db sever with original spacing.
Well it's not entirely related to APEX.
This is how external table is created:
create table u_x
(rowline varchar2(255))
ORGANIZATION EXTERNAL
TYPE ORACLE_LOADER
DEFAULT DIRECTORY ext_tab <-- this is a dir i have created
access parameters
records delimited by newline
fields notrim
LOCATION ('aaa.txt')
REJECT LIMIT UNLIMITED;
on the first line of the aaa.text (its a report), it shows something like:
Sat Dec 29 Page 1
but when I do select * from u_x , the result shows:
Sat Dec 29 Page 1
all above is done in sql workshop /sql command in APEX 4.2.1 (db 10.2.0.5)
Is there any way to preserve the spaces between "29" and "Page"?
(the result compressed all spaces in-between to 1 space).
I think the ideal way is to invoke client's notepad to open the server's text file.
anyway to generate the link?
Thanks
JohnWell, I have tried to download the file using below procedure.
create or replace PROCEDURE download_bfile (
directory_in IN VARCHAR2,
file_in IN VARCHAR2
AS
lob_loc BFILE;
v_mime VARCHAR2 (48);
v_length NUMBER(16);
BEGIN
lob_loc := BFILENAME (UPPER (directory_in), file_in);
v_length := DBMS_LOB.getlength (lob_loc);
-- set up HTTP header
-- use an NVL around the mime type and
-- if it is a null set it to application/octect
-- application/octect may launch a download window from windows
OWA_UTIL.mime_header (nvl(v_mime, 'application/octet'), FALSE);
-- set the size so the browser knows how much to download
HTP.p ('Content-length: ' || v_length);
-- the filename will be used by the browser if the users does a save as
HTP.p ( 'Content-Disposition:attachment; filename="'
|| SUBSTR (file_in, INSTR (file_in, '/') + 1)
|| '";'
-- close the headers
OWA_UTIL.http_header_close;
-- download the BLOB
WPG_DOCLOAD.download_file (lob_loc);
apex_application.stop_apex_engine;
END download_bfile;
I run it inside sql command in apex, but it does not show a pop window to save the file,
it displays the whole text content of the file in the result window.
Any idea why the save-as window does not pop up?
thanks,
John.
