Encrypt or hide password in sql script from shell

Hello
Have I some possibility to encrypt or hide password in this shell script :
$ORACLE_HOME/bin/sqlplus -S /nolog<<EOF
connect user/passw3@tns
select * from dual;
exit;
EOF
thank You
Brano

Or do not use login userid/pw at all. Instead use client authentication (externally identified account).
CREATE USER ops$me identified externally;
then as me on the host,
$ORACLE_HOME/bin/sqlplus / >> /dev/null <<EOF1
select * from dual;
exit;
EOF1
That way your password never has to be stored or passed. Oracle knows that you have been authenticated by the server.

Calling sql script from shell script

Hi,
I know this question has been asked many time in various forums, but I tried many combinations and not able to figure out what I'm missing.
Basically - I'm trying to call a sql script from a shell script.
This is my sql script (plsql.sql) -
DELCARE
v_empno NUMBER := '&empno';
BEGIN
select ename,sal from emp where empno = v_empno;
dbms_output.put_line('Inside the plsql file');
END;
This is my unix shell script - I'm caling the plsql.sql file with the parameter passed(97882). I don't get any output. at least I should be able to view the dbms output if not for the sql query inside the sql script.
#!/usr/bin/ksh
sqlplus -s sam/olo01 << HERE
@plsql.sql 97882;
HERE
What is it I am missing ?

Using your scripts (and having to create and populate a table myself, that would have what your select statement implies),
oracle:oklacity$ cat plsql.sql
DELCARE
v_empno NUMBER := '&empno';
BEGIN
select ename,sal from emp where empno = v_empno;
dbms_output.put_line('Inside the plsql file');
END;
oracle:oklacity$ cat doit.sh
#!/usr/bin/ksh
sqlplus -s sam/olo01 << HERE
@plsql.sql 97882;
HERE
oracle:oklacity$ ./doit.sh
SP2-0042: unknown command "DELCARE" - rest of line ignored.
SP2-0734: unknown command beginning "v_empno NU..." - rest of line ignored.
oracle:oklacity$
This is the kind of information you should have put in your opening post.

How to hide passwords in sql scripts?

Hi!
I have got a few sql scripts for some actions. In the scripts the connection information is plain text - even the SYS password in one script.
Are there ways to solve this behaviour? Perhaps encrypt it or... What does the practice say - how do you solve this???
Thanks
Markus

Depending on your environment and if these are administrative (DBA) scritps or production batch then here are some ideas:
For DBA
Run the scripts via cron in a DBA privileged account
sqlplus /nolog <<EOF
connect / as sysdba
start script
exit
EOF
The above requires no password,
For production batch assuming that all production runs under one OS ID that access to is restricted then potentially you can use OS authentication so the Oracle username has no password: create user bob identified externally.
sqlplus / @script
will then do the job

How to load SQL scripts from a text file.

Hi, i tried several time to load a text file/SQL script with 10 different tables and data, but 10g Express doesen't allows me to do that, any one can direct me or point out to me what i should do or do i need to adopt any special method to to get this done. i am sure there must be some thing where you can upload SQL scripts from a text file (in SQL command editor!). thanks

Hi,
see my other answer here:
SQL command editor doesn't take more than 1 insert command
This seems to be a duplicate question, right? Or am I missing something?

Copying SQL Script from Oracle SQL Developer into Excel with formatting

I need to copy a SQL Script into Excel in order to develop some VBA code. Is there any nice way that I can copy SQL Script from Oracle SQL Developer into Excel and retain its formatting? I am a stickler for having legible, readable SQL and like to have all my columns lined up and aliases lined up. When we used to use SQL Navigator, the tab formatting seemed to copy and paste just fine. Now that we have migrated to Oracle SQL Developer, the formatting seems to get all messed up.
And suggestions are greatly appreciated and Thanks in advance for your review and am hopeful for an answer.
Thanks.
PSULionRP

I suppose you want a real tabulator instead of spaces. You can configure this in the preferences (SQL Formatter - Oracle). You have to apply it then to your existing code (e.g. CTRL-F7), but new code should get it right from the start.
Hope that helps,
K.

Calling a SQL script from the PL/SQL block.

Hello All,
I am using oracle 11g database.
My requirment is as follows. I have a SQL script to alter the table. But before alter the table I need to test some condition , if the condition satisfy then I have to alter the table through the SQL script. For the checking the condition I have to use the plsql block and inside I need to call the SQL script.
Can I call a SQL script from PL/SQL block, if yes then how?
I am tring to use START, RUN and @ command but it is throughing error.
Thanks
SUN

[PL/SQL manual|http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B10501_01/server.920/a96540/functions55a.htm#77600] Ctrl-F start, finds nothing. [SQLPlus manual|http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14357/toc.htm] Ctrl-F start finds this. Isn't it wonderful that Oracle documents this stuff so we don't have to guess.
Can I call a SQL script from PL/SQL block, if yes then how? No.
You could call the stored procedure in a SQL*Plus script before the alter table and have it raise an exception if the condition is not met and have the script quit when there is an error.

Execute .sql scripts from a remote login

Hello,
1) How do I execute a remote sql script from sqlplus?
SQL>@remote_server:$HOME/test_sql.sql ...this did not work, which would work?
2) Another question, in sqlplus I can do...! echo testing123>$HOME/test123.txt.
How do I do this within a store procedure?
This does not work, which would work?
declare
v_test varchar2(300) := '! echo testing123>$HOME/test123.txt';
begin
execute immediate v_test;
end;
/

Re Q2.
I take it that's an sqlplus feature on unix as it doesn't work on windows:
SQL> ! echo testing123>$HOME/test123.txt
SP2-0734: unknown command beginning "! echo tes..." - rest of line ignored.
SQL>Also the reason this isn't working from within PL/SQL is that the execute immediate statement is used to send SQL statements to the SQL engine. What you are attempting to do is to send sqlplus commands to the SQL engine which obviously knows nothing about sqlplus commands. Those commands are very specific to the sqlplus executable and will only work in that environment.

Generate SQL scripts from Designer 6

Hi all,
Does anyone know how to generate an SQL-script from Designer? I want to maintain the code in the repository, and also document usages against the script. I've found ways to document the script, but then I can't generate it....
Thanks in advance,
Ronald

Ronald,
How did you record the SQL script in designer? As undefined pl/sql module (type= "null")?
If so, you cannot generate the script with the ddl generator. To do so you could change the type to procedure and make post-generation changes to the script (cut of f the procedure header and trailer lines). An other way to generate it is to write your own SQL script generator as a headstart utility. You might take a look at the html help file generator utility which does a similar job (create a o/s file based on the repository contents).
Let us know if you succeed.

Executing sql script from file, with multiple queries

Hello,
I am trying to load an SQL script from a file, parse the script into separate SQL statements, and execute each of them. The final statement will always be a query, and thus will return a result.
Three problems arise:
1. I don't know what TYPE of statement each one is (i.e. whether it is an UPDATE or a QUERY), which seems to be required in order to execute it in java (via executeQuery and executeUpdate).
2. I am not sure of the best way to execute a series of statements (the Statement object has some "batch" functionality, but I'm not sure if there is a better way, or even of the proper way to use this).
3. I need to be able to make sure the final statement is a QUERY, and thus will return a ResultSet. Otherwise I need to be able to throw an exception.
This has been causing me a lot of trouble. Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
Kevin

Hi Kevin,
Have you got any solution for your mentioned problem????
I am facing almost the same kind of problem like I have some sql files containg simple sql statements as well as code for writting Procs , triggeres, index...functions..and so on. I need to execute this XYZ.sql file from Java side.
Can you guide me about my problem?????
Thanks in advance.............

Hi!
Here are some other threads to look at. Make sure to also look at the blog at the bottom of the 2nd thread. In the forum search set the date range to "all" and search on "run_cmd". You might have to look thru a few pages but there are several threads.
