Input truncated to 1 characters

I am constantly getting this message when I run a SQL/PLUS command.
Any ideas? Is this a parameter setting I need to update?
Help!!

Make sure that the file you are running has a carriage return after the last line of code, so that there is a new blank line, but no extra spaces or lines after that. This message occurrs when the last line of the file with command text on it does not have a new blank line after it, or when there are extra spaces or lines after that. For example, if you have:
SELECT columns
FROM table
<-- your cursor should be here when you save the file.
If you hold the delete key, while the cursor is in the position indicated above, it will delete any extra spaces or lines that you cannot see, that can cause the message. Make sure that your cursor is on the line after the last line of code, not on the same line as the / or ; that ends it.
This message is actually harmless, so you can just ignore it, but if you find it annoying or confusing and want to get rid of it, the above should do it.

  • Input truncated to 105 characters

    I am running a long sql select statement from a file using the command
    start myfile.sql;
    and get the above message. My sql statement seems to be running but because it is a very complicated one, I cant gauge if I am getting what the select statement requires or if I am only getting the result for the first 105 characters and the rest of my statement is being ignored. Is there a limit to the number of characters in an sql*plus command? If yes, how do I run a long select statement that is longer than the limit? Tx for the help,
    Enis

    try entering a carriage return after your "/" or ";" in the .sql file that is being called. that should get rid of that message.

  • Input Truncated Problem

    Dear all,
    I have seen the "input truncated to n characters" messages on the forum here but my problem is a little different. When I run a sql from a file locally everything works fine. When I send the file to a customer for them to run on their database they get the following message:
    SQL> @c:\sql\sql_to_run.sql
    Package created.
    Warning: Package Body created with compilation errors.
    Input truncated to 1 characters
    Trigger created.All of the messages on the forum that I have seen relate to this message appearing when a space is at the end of the file. Obviously this is happening in the middle of the file. Also, no matter how many spaces/linefeeds I do or donot put in I cannot duplicate this problem locally. Any suggestions would be helpful.

    . Since you said input truncated is harmless, I assume it cannot have anything to do with the "Warning: Package Body created with compilation errorsIt may be that the Warning causes the input truncated, although it seems unlikely. You could try reproducing your customer's environment by setting the COMPATIBLE parameter to 8.1.7.

  • Input truncated message

    Does anyone know why when doing multiple inserts into a table you sometimes get the "input truncated to 3 characters" message. I can't find any documentation on it. Thanks.

    probably, one of the columns in the table is only 3 character long and value for that column ( in some of the records being inserted) is exceeding 3 characters.

  • Why The message Input truncated to - - - -

    When we run pl/sql program some times it will give a messae input truncated to n characters. Why it will come. If we don't want this one what we have to do.
    Please help me
    Thanks

    This occurs because the last line of the script does not have a
    carriage return. It is a harmless message. Add a carriage
    return to the final line of your script and the message should
    not occur.
    I believe it no longer occurs in SQL*Plus 9.0.1

  • Cannot Input and Display Chinese Characters by using ODBC Applications

    Dear all,
    I am trying to input the Simplified Chinese Characters in the Oracle Database Ver 9.2 running on a UNIX AIX server. The client application we are using is th MS Access 2003 running on a MS Windows XP English version SP 2 without multi-language pack. MS Office 2003 is also an English version.
    Database setting is:
    NLS_CHARACTERSET=US7ASCII
    NLS_NCHAR_CHARACTERSET=AL16UTF16
    The Oracle Client used is also ver 9.2 with the ODBC driver ver 9.2. I have tried the following NLS_LANG settings by chaging the registry without any NLS_LANG environment settings:
    AMERICAN_AMERICA.ZHT16MSWIN950
    AMERICAN_AMERICA.ZHS16GBK
    AMERICAN_AMERICA.ZHT16HKSCS
    AMERICAN_AMERICA.AL32UTF8
    I have tied to load some Chinese Characters in by sqlload and by using the NLS_LANG AMERICAN_AMERICA.ZHT16MSWIN950, AMERICAN_AMERICA.ZHS16GBK and AMERICAN_AMERICA.ZHT16HKSCS, they can be display perfectly in SQLPLUS. But when using the same NLS_LANGs and display in the ACCESS, only ???? are displayed.
    When I tried to insert Chinese in ACCESS, the character changed to ???? again. No matter what Chinese characters I inserted by MS ACCESS, the ???? code can be dump with the binary code "03, 0f".
    Are there any methods or settings I need to change to make ACCESS an application for inserting and displaying Chinese characters from the Oracle database?
    I have tried to set the Non-Unicode setting in the Windows Locale setting:
    Chinese (Taiwan) (With AMERICAN_AMERICA.ZHT16MSWIN950),
    Chinese (Hong Kong S.A.R) (with AMERICAN_AMERICA.ZHT16HKSCS) and
    Chinese (PRC) (with AMERICAN_AMERICA.ZHS16GBK)
    when inserting the Chinese Characters by Access. But they all failed with ???? inserted in the DB.
    Please kindly advise what should be done.
    Thanks.

    Are you trying to store the character data in char/varchar2 columns?
    If that's the case then you have a problem, since a US7ASCII character set can only handle, well, ascii data.
    If you are trying to store the data in columns of nchar datatypes, then there might be a problem with literals because literals are converted to database character set first, before conversion to national (nchar) character set. Such data loss can also happen depending on how binds or oci calls are performed.
    You could use the dump() function to verify what's actually stored in a database column, without a db - client conversion happening that may distort the facts.
    Example:
    SQL> select col, dump(col, 1016) from table where some_condition;

  • Bookmark titles being truncated at 40 characters

    I have created heading styles (H1-H5) in my Word Document.  When I convert the file to a PDF and create Bookmarks, the long heading titles are truncated at 40 characters when I create the Bookmark structure.  Any advice for fixing the truncation issue?
    I am using Adober Acrobat X Pro.

    The error/issue is not with Acrobat.  As you save the Word file as a PDF open the 'options' box and check the box 'Create bookmarks using headings'; all heading text should be displayed in the bookmark without truncation.

  • ITunes: filenames are truncated to 37 characters

    I downloaded podcasts from the internet with itunes. the filenames appear correctly in iTunes but on the hard drive (My Documents\My Music\iTunes\iTunes Music\Podcasts\)
    filenames are truncated to 37 characters. Any idea how to get the full filenames?
    using Windows XP SP2
    iTunes 6.0.5

    FYI this isn't entirely benign. i've had this cause actions to OVERWRITE files without giving any warning. specifically if a batch action is done on a bunch of files with long filenames with numbers at the end. the numbers are omited and so every file has the same name and is over written as the action progresses. this would overwrite an unnumbered but same named file too.

  • Input truncated

    Is it possible to hide the comment 'Input truncated to x
    charaters' after a query?

    This is becaus ethe last line in a SQL*Plus script should
    consist of a linefeed only. For every script where this occurs,
    go to the last line, go to the end of the last line and press
    <Return>. The input truncated message disappears! Magic!
    This is purely a cosmetic error, it doesn't mean your program
    didn't run cleanly.

I am currently attempting to write a program to help me move away from my illiteracy in Mandrin. So, that's my code, and i am using Dr.Java while writing it. When i tested it out the output looked something like this v

    My input file is saved in Unicode. It contains letters that cannot be saved in ANSI. I tried UTF-8, but the interactions section showed no output...
    Is this just a problem with Dr.Java? Will i encounter a similar problem when i turn this into a GUI?
    The following is a copy and pasted version of the txt file i used as input. It is saved in the Unicode format.

    Sorry, but i do not understand this post at all... Can anyone explain it to me? Is he saying my IDE is running on something other than Unicode?
    PS: I tried one of the Scanner constructors that takes a charset parameter. That fixed the odd output! However, every Chinese character has been replaced with a question mark. (It was a series of weird characters before i used the constructor with a charset parameter.)

  • Truncation of Heading characters when an ALV is exported to an excel sheet

    Hi All,
    I am facing a problem while printing an ALV output on to an excel sheet. In the header the last characters are being truncated in the excel.
    Now, I have the entire data in tb_output itab. So using REUSE_ALV*, i printed the output. Here comes the problem.
    I heard about LIST_FROM_MEMORY and LIST_TO_ASCI which can solve this problem. But not much sure how to use those. Whether I need to pass my itab tb_output into any of these?
    Please help me out from this problem.
    Thanks a lot.
    Regards,
    Seenu

    Hi!
    You have 2 options:
    1. Shorten your headings so that their length is LE to the fieldlength of the data they are displaying. E.g. for PO number maximum possible is 10.
    2. Try using the parameter OUTPUTLEN in the field catalog. You can increase this to be equal to the length of your column heading.
    Hope this helps.
    Cheers!
