I want to import flat files by ftp in owb
I want to import flat files by ftp in owb.
When I config the ftp host ip, username, password and path, then I import the flat files, but
this didn't succeed. And I find the owb didn't check the ftp host's directory,
and it check the localhost of owb, so it reported there isn't the directory.
So how to solve the problem.
Thank you!
Hi,
you must first transfer the files via ftp to the dbserver and then process. Create a workflow with a ftp activity and transfer the files. After this you can call the mappings in this workflow.
If you want to sample the flat files you have two choices:
1.) Using the owb client on the dbserver and sample the files on the dbserver. Then you need only one location with the path on the db-server.
2.) Using the owb client on a client machine and sample the files on the client. Then you need two locations: one local which points to the file directory on your client, one remote which points to the path on the dbserver. Use the first to sample the files, and change to the second before deploying the mappings.

Detlef

Hi all
Can any one please tell me , how to import flat files from 'postgres database' on a completely different network?
Thank YouAre you wanting to unload to file from Postgres? Or use ODBC connectivity to it? ODBC would allow remote connectivity using the database gateway connectivity. Running an unload on postgres instance to file and ftp'ing the file is another option.

How to Create a Flat File using FTP/File Adapter
Can any body done workaround on creating the Flat file using FTP/File Adapter?.
I need to create a simple FlatFile either using of delimiter/Fixed length. using the above said adapters we can create XML file, i tried concatinating all the values into a single String and writing into a file, but it does not have proper structure
Can any body help me out on this..
Thanks
RamYou can create a text schema while creating a File Adapter. If schema is specified for File Adapter, it takes care of converting XML into fixed length or delimited format.

How to import flat file with date in filename on a regular basis
Hi,
Using OWB 11gR1
I have a file that will be delivered to an FTP each night with the date in the filename having the form YYYYMMDD-FILE.txt (ex: 20100326-FILE.txt) that I want to import to an external table.
Now I've set up the import to the external table but am only able to import files that I specify the name for exactly. I've tried pointing to filenames such as "*-FILE.txt" and "%-FILE.txt" but that only results in errors.
It must be possible to automatically import files with different filenames but the same structure, or isn't it? Could anyone help me solve this it'd be greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance.Hi
For dynamic files you can;
1. either do the DDL on the external table to point to the file with the changing name
2Copy the file to a fixed name before using the external table/maps
3. Use the preprocessor to cat/pipe these files for the external table. See the post here http://blogs.oracle.com/warehousebuilder/2009/06/file_staging_using_external_table_preprocessor.html it shows using gunzip but could simply be doing 'cat' on a bunch of files to standard output

Issue importing flat files into SQL server 2008R2
I have csv files that the last column may not have data. SSIS (version 2008R2) will insert the next row's data into the empty cells, which causes my package to fail.
I know this is resolved in 2012 but we are using 2008R2 still. Any suggestions?
Thanks.Hi sqlBI2014,
After testing the issue that Flat File Connection Manager cannot handle file with uneven number of columns in each row in my SQL Server 2008 R2 environment, I can reproduce it.
Based on my research, the issue is caused by the Column Delimiter gets first preference and then Row delimiter. So the next row data would be inserted in the empty column cell. This is by design in SQL Server 2005, SQL Server 2008 or SQL Server 2008 R2.
Good news is that the issue is fixed in SQL Server Data Tools which comes with SQL Server 2012. In SQL Server 2012, by default, the Flat File Connection Manager always checks for a row delimiter in unquoted data, and starts a new row when a row delimiter
is found. This enables the connection manager to correctly parse files with rows that are missing column fields.
If you still want to fix the issue in SQL Server 2008 R2, there is a sample component posted to the CodePlex that might help you with this:

Import flat file in selction screen
Hi all,
Could anybody help me in giving me a hint to import a flat file with thousands of values (articles selection) in the query selection screen.
Best regards.
GeoI have a question related to using the multiple selections in a BEx Query. We are seeing some very long wait times for our selections and was wonder if this is normal, or if we have some things to fix in our system.
In one of our Project System Queries, we are inputting 54 lines like the following list:
AIR
BAM
BAR
BRR
BTR
COM
CSM
CSR
CTM
CTR
EPM
EPR
It is taking up to 45 minutes just to get these items loaded in from the clipboard, this seems a bit excessive to me, as it only take a matter of a second or two to do the same thing in our R/3 system.
I was thinking that BW was doing some sort of validations as it brought in the list, but no one has been able to answer this question for me.
If anyone can provide some advice or answers, it will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,

Import Flat File to file module
hello,
i have created owb file location and file module with OMBPlus.Now I want to import my sample.csv file to file module .How can I do so in OMBPlus ?

The import wizard is a GUI too, you can run the GUI wizard from OMBPlus, or just build the OMB commands to describe your file.
See the data mover expert for sample usage of the wizards if that is what you want:

Import flat file to multiple tables based on identifier column
Hello,
I am trying to setup a package that will import one pipe-delimited flat file (a utility bill) to multiple data tables based on the value of the first column. I have been told it is similar in format to an EDI file, but there are some differences.
The number of columns is consistent where the first columns are the same. Meaning a record that has '00' in the first column will always have 10 columns; a record that has '01' in the first column will always have 9 columns; etc.
Each value in the first column represents a separate destination data table. Meaning a record that has '00' in the first column should be output to table '00'; a record that has '01' in the first column should be output to table '01'; etc. All
destination tables reside on the same SQL Server.
Identifier columns can repeat multiple times throughout the flat file. Meaning a record that starts with '01' may be repeated multiple times in the same.
Sample Data:
00|XXXXXXXX|XXX|XXXXXXXX|XXXXXX|XXXX|X|XXXXXXXXXX|XX|XXXXX
01|XXXXXXXXXXX|XXX|XXXXXXXX|XXXXX|XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX|XXXXXXXXXX|XXXXXXX|XXXXXXXXXXXXXX
02|XXXXXXXXXXX|XXXXXXXX|XXXXXXX|XXXXX|XXXXX|XXXXX|XXXXX|XXXXX|XXXXX|XXXXX|XXXXX
04|XXXXXXXXXXX|XXXXXXXXXXXXX|XXX|XXXXXXXX
05|XXXXXXXXXXX|XXXXXXXXXXXXX|XXX|XXXXXXXX|XXXX
07|XXXXXXXXXXXXX|X|XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX|XXX|XXXXXXXX|XXXX|XXXXXXX|XXXXXXXXXXX
07|XXXXXXXXXXXXX|X|XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX|XXX|XXXXXXXX|XXXX|XXXXXXX|XXXXXXXXXXX
07|XXXXXXXXXXXXX|X|XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX|XXX|XXXXXXXX|XXXX|XXXXXXX|XXXXXXXXXXX
07|XXXXXXXXXXXXX|X|XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX|XXX|XXXXXXXX|XXXX|XXXXXXX|XXXXXXXXXXX
01|XXXXXXXXXXX|XXX|XXXXXXXX|XXXXX|XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX|XXXXXXXXXX|XXXXXXX|XXXXXXXXXXXXXX
02|XXXXXXXXXXX|XXXXXXXX|XXXXXXX|XXXXX|XXXXX|XXXXX|XXXXX|XXXXX|XXXXX|XXXXX|XXXXX
04|XXXXXXXXXXX|XXXXXXXXXXXXX|XXX|XXXXXXXX
Any help would be appreciated.Hi koldar.308,
If there are few distinct values in the first column, we can use Flat File Source connect to that flat file, then use Conditional Split Transformation to split the first column to multiples, and then load the data to multiple tables with OLE DB Destination
based on the outputs of Conditional Split.
After testing the issue in my environment, please refer to the following steps to achieve this requirement:
Drag a Flat File Source connect to that flat file with Flat File Connection Manager.
Drag a Conditional Split Transformation connects to the Flat File Source.
Double-click the Conditional Split Transformation, add several Output based on the first column values as below:
Drag same number OLE DB Destinations as the outputs of Conditional Split, connect to Conditional Split with one case output:
If there are any other questions, please feel free to ask.

I want to import sql file but some recode i want to ignore it and go on
i have sql file it contine all data of anuther table i want to import this data
to new table but i want to ignore some record (don't insert it in table)Can you be a bit more precise. Is it an export of the table data which you now wish to import ( would be easier to have exported just the rows you required ).
If it is a text file you plan to import using sql loader then you could add a contraint on the database to discard those rows.
Alternatively you may need to have a holding table to delete the records not required before you add them to the new table.
