Field in data file exceeds maximum length
Hi,
I am trying to run the following SQL*Loader control job on my Oracle 11gR2 . Running the SQL*Loader control job results in the ‘Field in data file exceeds maximum length’ error message. Below, I am listing the control file.Please Suggest. Thanks
It's giving me an error when I run SQL Loader on it,
Record 61: Rejected - Error on table RMS_TABLE, column GEOM.SDO_POINT.X.
Field in data file exceeds maximum length.
Here is my SQL Loader Control file,

I did a little investigating, and it doesn't add up.
when i run
select max(lengthb(notes)) from NRIS.NRN_REPORT_NOTES
I get a return of

That tells me that the largest size instance of that column is only 643 bytes. But EVERY insert is failing.
Here is the loader file header, and first couple of inserts:

I am not seeing why this would be failing.HI,
the problem is delimited data defaults to char(255)..... Very helpful I know.....
what you need to two is tell sqlldr hat the data is longer than this.
so change notes to notes char(4000) in you control file and it should work.

SDO_ORDINATES.X.Field in data file exceeds maximum length
Hi All,
While loading data in .SHP file into oracle spatial through SHP2SDO tool following error message appears:
Error message:
Record 54284: Rejected - Error on table GEO_PARCEL_CENTROID, column CENTROID_GEOM.SDO_ORDINATES.X.

I read some where this is due to the SQL * Loader takes default column value to 255 characters. But there is confusion to me how to change the column size in control file because it is object data type. I am not sure this is correct or not.

Do you mean this?

Error report:

*Cause: for datatypes CHAR and RAW, the length specified was > 2000;
otherwise, the length specified was > 4000.
*Action: use a shorter length or switch to a datatype permitting a
longer length such as a VARCHAR2, LONG CHAR, or LONG RAW*009*

Field in data file exceeds maximum length - CTL file error
Hi,
I am loading data in new system using CTL file. But I am getting error as 'Field in data file exceeds maximum length' for few records, other records are processed successfully. I have checked the length of the error record in the extract file, it is less than the length in the target table, VARCHAR2 (2000 Byte). Below is the example of error data,
Hi Rebecca~I have just spoken to our finance department and they have agreed that the ABCs payments made can be allocated to the overdue invoices, can you send any future invoices direct to me so that I can get them paid on time.~Hope this is ok ~Thanks~Terry~
Is this error caused because of the special characters in the string?
Below is the ctl file I am using,

AdityaHi,
I suspect this is because of the built in default length of character datatypes in sqldr - it defaults to char(255) taking no notice of what the actual table definition is.
Try adding CHAR(2000), to your controlfile so you end up with something like this:
OPTIONS (SKIP=2)
LOAD DATA

APPEND

SQL*Loader Error Field in data file exceeds maximum length", version 8.1.6
Hi All,
I am trying to load a data file into a database table using SQL loader. I
received the data in an data file but I saved it as a pipe delimited
file.
When I run the SQL Loader command no records are loaded - looking at the log
file I get the following error:
Rejected - Error on table FARESDATA, column FANOTESIN.
Then I tried with substr and doesnt seem to work for values greater than 4000 chars, it only works if the field value is below 4000 chars (say doing a substr for first 3000 chars).
see the code--------
LOAD DATA
INFILE 'p.dat'
APPEND INTO TABLE PROSPECTUS
FIELDS TERMINATED BY '|' OPTIONALLY ENCLOSED BY '"'
TRAILING NULLCOLS
Fanotesin char(4000) "substr(:fanotesin,1,4000)"
We get the error ORA-01461: can bind a LONG value only for insert into a LONG column when using substr for 4000 chars.
Please help!
Thanks,
Rajesh
nullI believe the problem here is that the ORACLE database regards anything > 4000chs as a CLOB (or LONG). 4000 is the maximum length of a varchar2 field in the database, although of course you can declare larger values in PL/SQL. (Since the incoming data is > 4000 chs it is regarded as a LONG and you cannot therefore use SUBSTR on it)
I think that you must either truncate your data before loading or load into a table with the offending field as a CLOB (or LONG)
and then use PL/SQL to recreate it in a table with a varchar2(4000) which is otherwise identical. (You can select from a LONG into a varchar2(32000) for example and then truncate before writing out to the new table). -

SQL Loader - data exceeds maximum length
I am having an issue with SQL Loader falsely reporting that a column is too long in a CSV upload file. The offending column, Notes, is defined in the staging table as VARCHAR2(1000). The text in the Notes column in the upload file for the record that is being rejected is only 237 characters long. I examined the raw data file with a hex editor and there are no special cahracters embedded in the column. The CSV upload was recreated but the false error remains.
Any ideas what to check? Any suggestion appreciated.
Here are the pertinent files.

The error is like : Variable length field exceeds maximum length
Hi All,
I am trying to load some signature ascii data from load file. so i wrote the code like below in my controal file to load that to database. For SIGN_IMAGE in oracle db it was mentioned as RAW(2000). The below is worked fine when i tried in window and oracle 8i environment.
SIG_TYPE POSITION(23:23) CHAR,
SIGN_IMAGE POSITION(24:1977) VARRAW(2000)
NULLIF SIGN_IMAGE=BLANKS,
SIGN_IMAGE1 POSITION(1978:3930) VARRAW(2000)
NULLIF SIGN_IMAGE1=BLANKS
But when i ported the same thing to solaris and oracle 10g environment. The below code is giving error when SQL Loder loading.
The error is like for column SIGN_IMAGE : Variable length field exceeds maximum length.
But here i am giving a lenght of 1954 only with including 2 bytes length of the string.
Could any one tell me what is exactly the problem? i am not able sort out the issue.
Thanks,

But when i ported the same thing to solaris and oracle 10g environment. The below code is giving error when SQL Loder loading.
The error is like : Variable length field exceeds maximum length.
But here i am giving a lenght of 1954 only with including 2 bytes length of the string.
Could any one tell me what is exactly the problem? i am not able sort out the issue.

Ctxload error DRG-11530: token exceeds maximum length
I downloaded the 11g examples (formerly the companion cd) with the supplied knowledge base (thesauri), unzipped it, installed it, and confirmed that the droldUS.dat file is there. Then I tried to use ctxload to create a default thesaurus, using that file, as per the online documentation. It creates the default thesaurus, but does not load the data, due to the error "DRG-11530: token exceeds maximum length". Apparently one of the terms is too long. But what can I use to edit the file? I tried notepad, but it was too big. I tried wordpad, but it was unreadable. I was able to create a default thesaurus using the much smaller sample thesaurus dr0thsus.txt, so I confirmed that there is nothing wrong with the syntax or privileges. Please see the copy of the run below. Is there a way to edit the droldUS.dat file or a workaround or am I not loading it correctly? Does the .dat file need to be loaded differently than the .txt file?

CTXSYS@orcl_11g>Hi Roger,
Thanks for the response. You are correct. I was confusing the terms thesaurus and knowledge base, which sometimes seem to be used interchangeably or synonymously, but are actually two different things. I read over the various sections of the documentation regarding the supplied knowledge base and supplied thesaurus more carefully and believe I understand now. Apparently, the dr0thsus.txt file that I did ultimately load using ctxload to create a default thesaurus is the supplied thesaurus that is intended to be used to create the default English thesaurus, which supports ctx_thes syn and such. The other droldUS.dat file that I mistakenly tried to load using ctxload is the supplied compiled knowledge base that supports ctx_doc themes and gist and such. In the past I have used ctx_thes.create_thesaurus to create a thesaurus, but using ctxload can also load a thesaurus from a text file with the data in a specified format. Once a thesaurus is loaded using ctxload, it can then be compiled using ctxkbtc to add it to the existing compiled knowledge base. So, the knowledge base is sort of a compilation of thesauri, which is what led to my confusion in terminology. I think I have it all straight in my mind now and hopefully this will help anybody else who searches for the same problem and finds this.
Thanks,
Barbara
