Print a message from SQL server to notepad

Hi ,
Is it possible to print a message in SQL server and that message should be saved in a .txt file (in local file system)
Thanks in advance!!!

I don't think there is a straight forward approach to solve your problem but you can try Li's suggestion or the one which is given below
The SQL file must have print statement.
Master..xp_cmdshell 'sqlcmd -S servername -i f:\dynamic.sql -E>>f:\backupoutput.sql'

  • How get OraOLEDB.Oracle messages from sql server

    Hi,
    I am trying of get the oracle exception messages for linked server in sql server. With ERROR_MESSAGE() I get a generic error. How I can get the oracle errror with 'ORA-001' format ?
    thanks

    If understand you right this should do the job:
    try
    // do some Oracle database stuff here
    catch(OracleException exc)
    String error = exc.Message;
    This always gives me the errors with the format you wanted.
    I hope I got you right and that it helps you.
    Best regards,

  • How to delete the Folder from sql server 2008

    Hi all,
    I was trying to delete the folder from sql server 2008 with the below script
    DECLARE @path VARCHAR(256) -- path for backup files
    DECLARE @cmd VARCHAR(8000)
    DECLARE @folderName VARCHAR(256) -- filename for backup
    SET @folderName = + (CONVERT(varchar(10), GETDATE()-7, 112))  -- 7 days back date folder name
    SET @path = 'I:\Backup_Test\' + @folderName -- Folder path
    SET @cmd = 'del ' + @path -- Delete
    EXEC master..xp_cmdshell @cmd
    --Print @cmd
    This is not working it was asking the Confirmation (I:\Backup_Test\20100629\*, Are you sure (Y/N)? ) what will i do to the delete the folder.
    Thanks,
    Prasad R.

    I would notice   you that T-SQL does not play well to do things like that. Do not you want using .net language to delete folders?
    Old method is
    declare @HR int, @CFOLDER varchar(255),@FSO int
        set @CFOLDER='D:\folder\'
        EXEC @HR = sp_OACreate 'Scripting.FileSystemObject', @FSO OUT
        EXEC @HR = sp_OAMethod @FSO, null, 'DeleteFolder', @CFOLDER 
    Now regarding to your second question please examine xp_fileexist  system stored procedure
    CREATE FUNCTION dbo.fn_file_exists(@filename VARCHAR(300))
      RETURNS INT
    AS
    BEGIN
      DECLARE @file_exists AS INT
      EXEC master..xp_fileexist @filename, @file_exists OUTPUT
      RETURN @file_exists
    END
    GO
    -- test
    SELECT dbo.fn_file_exists('c:\a.txt')

  • Using flash to display images from sql server or file system

    hello,
    what methods and parameters of the urlloader class we have to use to display images in a flash player if possible..
    also movie should update everytime a new image is added to a database or file
    the images can either be in a file system or in a sql database (if possible)
    does flash comes with an object of this type or we have to create it.
    regards,

    i responded to your duplicate message 4 days ago:
    is it possible to insert and retrieve images from sql server using actionscript.
    you'll need server-side script to query your database and you can use the flash urlloader class to call your script.
    also  is it possible to create a flash scrolling gallery based on images  stored in a database and everytime an image is added it is displayed in  the gallery.
    load the data using the urlloader class and  then load the images.  periodically query the database for new images if  there's no direct way for flash to know a new image was added.

  • Related to migration of db from sql server to oracle 11 g

    We're trying to migrate a Sql server managment studio database to Oracle 11g using SQL Developer 4.0. We can successfully connect to both Sql server managment studion 8.0 and Oracle 11g using the tool, as well as click through the Migration Wizard and start the migration.
    This opens the Database Migration dialog box, which indicates the capture process starts normally. we get the following error:
    ora :01440 : can not insert null into migrlog (id column) ,
    \and then after some time , i get an error that migration failed
    i am not getting the reason,I thing it may be due to reason that , I have table's column in my source db with more than 30 character.
    If i am migrating one by one table . then it is not giving any error, and identifier name is getting shrink in 30 character. but i am not getting the view , stored procedure , indexes , and others
    then what is the solution  for that, somebody pls suggest any help?????????????

    Continue the discussion in your original thread
    The error message is explicitly clear

    Your process is trying to insert a NULL value into the ID column, which presumably cannot be NULL

  • Integrating Reports from SQL Server Reporting Services

    Dear Experts,
    I am given the URL to a report from SQL Server Reporting Services. The URL looks like
    [http://<report_server_host>/ReportServer/Pages/ReportViewer.aspx?/<category>/<report>&<list_of_parameter_value_pairs>]
    When this URL is executed, the user will be prompted for user name and password.
    And I am given the following requirements:
    - Integrate the report into SAP NetWeaver Portal
    - The report has to be passed parameters with values generated at runtime and which must be hidden (because it is sensitive data)
    Initially, I have been working on two options:
    1. using Application Integrator (portal application: com.sap.portal.appintegrator.sap, portal component: Generic)
    2. using URL iView
    With the Application Integrator, however, I got the following error:
    The operation you are attempting on item "/" is not allowed for this item type. (rsWrongItemType)
    I cannot find the solution to this. It looks like the URL which contain "/" after "?" is not appropriate for the Application Integrator.
    So I turn my focus away from the Application Integrator, but to using the URL iView instead. And in order to hide the parameters passed, I make the following settings in the URL iView:
    Request Method = POST
    Fetch Mode = Server-Side
    But then I got the following error:
    Failed to fetch the content. The response status was 401.
    Message:
    (I have defined an HTTP system and used it in the URL iView.)
    Does anyone know how to fix the errors (either with the Application Integrator or the URL iView)?
    Your answers will be much appreciated!
    Regards
    Sakprasat Sum

    Hi
    Was a solution for this found?
    I am trying to achieve the same thing, create an iView that links to an existing SQL Reporting Services report.

  • How to retrieve nVarchat data from Sql Server DB

    How can I retrieve data of NVARCHAR data type from Sql Server 2000.
    Do I have to user ResultSet.getCLOB() or ResultSet.getBLOB() ?
    thx

    I have no idea, but you can find out the classname which is mapped by JDBC at the following ways:
    // Retrieve mapped class name by metadata.
    ResultSetMetaData metaData = resultSet.getMetaData();
    String className = metaData.getColumnClassName("columnname");
    System.out.println(className); // Prints the mapped class name. I.e. java.sql.Blob or java.sql.Clob
    // Or just upcast to object and lookup the instantiated class.
    Object object = resultSet.getObject("columnname");
    String className = object.getClass().getName();
    System.out.println(className); // Prints the mapped class name. I.e. java.sql.Blob or java.sql.Clob

  • Migration issue in SQL Developer (from SQL Server to Oracle)

    Dear All,
    I am using SQL Developer 3.0 to migrate data from SQL Server 2008 to Oracle 11gR2. I used Quick Migration Wizard for migrating and everything was Ok but when it was running migration process, I got this message: “Migration actions have failed. Check the migration reports for details. : null”
    But there was not any report to check. Does anyone know how I can do it without any problem?
    Thanks in advance.

    I am working on a project to migrate from SQL Server 2008 to Oracle 11gR2. It includes some tables, views, indexes, triggers and store procedures. At first I worked on SQL Developer 2.1.1.64 but it doesn’t support SQL Server 2008 (I had to use SQL Server 2005 in its offline options). I got a lot of error when I used the offline options. I know that I may be having some problem in table or view definition in my SQL Server but if I don’t have any log file I can’t solve them.
    Unfortunately, in SQL Developer 3.0 there isn’t any option to generate a SQL comments from objects (convert to Oracle) because I need to rewrite comments if they have problem. For example I have a filed named USER that it’s a reserved word in Oracle so I have to change this field name.
    I also can’t use “Translation Scratch Editor” because it has some error to convert. For example when I use it for the following code:
    CREATE TABLE [dbo].[Table1](
         [ID1] [int] IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL,
         [Name1] [varchar](50) NULL,
         CONSTRAINT [PK_Table1] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED
         [ID1] ASC
    )WITH (PAD_INDEX = OFF, STATISTICS_NORECOMPUTE = OFF, IGNORE_DUP_KEY = OFF, ALLOW_ROW_LOCKS = ON, ALLOW_PAGE_LOCKS = ON) ON [PRIMARY]
    ) ON [PRIMARY]
    CREATE TABLE [dbo].[Table2](
         [ID2] [int] IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL,
    [Name1] [varchar](50) NULL,
         CONSTRAINT [PK_Table2] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED
         [ID2] ASC
    )WITH (PAD_INDEX = OFF, STATISTICS_NORECOMPUTE = OFF, IGNORE_DUP_KEY = OFF, ALLOW_ROW_LOCKS = ON, ALLOW_PAGE_LOCKS = ON) ON [PRIMARY]
    ) ON [PRIMARY]
    I receive a wrong code like this:
    CREATE SEQUENCE Table1_ID1
    START WITH 1
    INCREMENT BY 1;
    CREATE TABLE Table1
    ID1 NUMBER(10,0) NOT NULL,
    Name1 VARCHAR2(50) ,
    CONSTRAINT PK_Table1 PRIMARY KEY( ID1 )
    CREATE OR REPLACE TRIGGER Table1_ID1_TRG
    BEFORE INSERT
    ON Table1
    FOR EACH ROW
    BEGIN
    SELECT Table1_ID1.NEXTVAL INTO :NEW.ID1
    FROM DUAL;
    END;
    CREATE SEQUENCE Table1_ID1
    START WITH 1
    INCREMENT BY 1;

  • Migration from SQL SERVER 2008 to Oracle 10g issues.

    Hi ,
    I'm trying to migrate from SQL Server 2008 to Oracle 10g and I end up with some issues that I wanted to ask some info about it.
    First, I was following a tutorial
    http://st-curriculum.oracle.com/obe/db/hol08/sqldev_migration/mssqlserver/migrate_microsoft_sqlserver_otn.htm
    and and in the last version of Oracle SQL developer I downloaded, I didn't find the Load Database Capture Script Output option.
    My first question is how can I either add this option or is there a new way to load the capture script ?
    Then I use the migration wizard and after following everything, I had the migration complete message from the application.
    When I tried to open my connectionss, it tells me version 11.2 is required. Does that mean that Oracle SQL developper 3 only
    do the migration for oracle 11g? And if I tried the previous versions, it doesn't support SQL server 2008.
    What do I do in this case ?
    Thanks !

    Thank you for your reply.
    After using the wizard and made the offline migration script, in the Migration projects window I made a move data to the oracle connection I previously made and after when I tried to reopen the connection, I couldn't.
    Well I didn't retry it yet to see if I'll have the same behavior but basically this is what I think I did. When I tried to open the connection I made, it says, Oracle 11.2 is required.
    Now, I just generate target from the convert model and it says migration complete but how do I test it and I do I go to oracle and see change ?
    Do I had to create a special user in SQL Server to log to it first ? How do I logon to it ?

  • Migrating a table from SQL server 2005 to oracle 9i

    Hi
    I need to migrate a table from SQL server to oracle, both of which are on different machines, I tried using SQL server DTS export functionality selected the Oracle driver, created a DSN, but it gave error message box as shown below
    Error Source: Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers
    "ORA 12560 :TNS protocol adapter error"
    Context:Error During initialization of the provider
    While i was successfully able to migrate the table from SQL SERVER to MS-ACCESS and from MS ACCESS to Oracle
    thanks
    abhishek

    Hi
    thanks warren, i just figured out that the DSN i had created while migrating data from Access to oracle was User DSN, i just created a system DSN of the similar kind and was successfully able to export the data from SQL server to oracle, the only problem being the column names in SQL server are longer than the limit of 30 characters we have in ORACLE..

  • Can't launch executable from SQL Server Agent Job

    I'm trying to launch an .exe from SQL Server Agent Job and basically nothing happens. I created a job, with 1 step, type is Operating System (CmdExec), run as sql agent service account, and in the command box I typed "start notepad" (no quotes). The job owner is set to administrator. I manually start the job, it processes successfully yet notepad does not launch. I've tried with other .exe's and result is the same. Any advice? Thanks!

    I tried several things and not just with notepad, I tried a couple other small executables. I've tried:
    c:\notepad       --(I copied it to c:\ thinking it maybe it's not finding the file.)
    c:\notepad.exe
    notepad.exe
    start notepad
    start notepad.exe
    and also launching it from a batch file.
    If I use just notepad the job hangs saying it's executing and I have to stop it. If I use start notepad it comes back as executed but actually nothing happens, ie, notepad does not launch. I've tried different security settings within SQL Server (ie assigning all available default roles to the login at the same time and individually one at a time) with identical results. SQL Server is loging in with local administrator priviledges and so is SQL Server Agent. My settings are the default installation settings (for Windows Server 2003 and SQL Server 2005) except that I read the BOL page "Configuring SQL Server Agent" which indicates the permissions needed for the following:
    Adjust memory quotas for a process
    Act as part of the operating system
    Bypass traverse checking
    Log on as a batch job
    Log on as a service
    Replace a process level token
    And they have been set. Still the same. BTW, I get the same result when trying to launch the file using xp_cmdshell with all the variations, and the proxy account for xp_cmdshell has been set to a login with administrator priviledges....
    I think it's some security setting in Windows Server, if only because I think I've tried all the settings within SQL Server...
    BTW, also, nothing is setup for Proxies under the SQL Server Agent node, but I don't think I should need to if I'm using the administrator level login...

  • Database Connection Error: Cannot obtain error message from the server

    I have a SQL statement that wants to add a temp table to the database.   The SQL statement works fine but when I try to add it via 'Add Command' feature in Crystal XI R2, I get the following error message:
    Database Connection Error: Cannot obtain error message from the server
    Any ideas?
    Thanks in advance,
    Zack H.

    Hi Raghavendra,
    I am using this in the 'Add Command' feature but I get the error message displayed in the subject line:
    CREATE TABLE #TibetanYaks(
    YakID char(4),
    YakName char(20) )
    INSERT INTO #TibetanYaks (YakID, YakName)
    SELECT  LastName, FirstName
    FROM      Employee
    WHERE      EmployeeID between '2000' and '3000'
    I haven't tried to add this as a stored procedure but I imagine it will work as I have no problems yet with stored procedures.  I simply want to be able to use temporary tables for the sole purpose of that session and not creating anything static in the database.
    By the way, even though I get the error message, when I look on the backend database, I see that the temporary table was successfully created...its just not brought across correctly in Crystal.
    Any ideas?

    Henrik,
    I've found other problems where OWB adds a space between all characters returned from SQL*Server which is what is happening in your case, although it is being displayed as a square box.
    In one of these cases the problem was fixed by using the 11.2.0.2 OWB so would it be possible for you to try with that version ?
    Also, as the problem is not with the gateway itself as you can select successfully using a database link then it would be better to follow up in the OWB forum -
    Forum: Warehouse Builder
    Warehouse Builder
    as they will be able to help with the OWB side of the problem.

  • Importing data from SQL Server

    I'm relatively new to Oracle, and my question is about importing data. I have an SQL 2000 server and I export a database using Microsoft OLE DB provider for Oracle. The process finished OK but when I tried to query the tables qith SQL Plus Worksheet, I get a message saying:
    select * from rwp_purge
    ERROR at line 1:
    ORA-00942: table or view does not exist
    but the table is there. I can see it using DBA Studio. So, what is happening? Do I have to commit transactions after importing data from SQL Server? Do I have to rebuild statistics?
    thanks in advance,

    Was the table created in the schema you are loggin as when trying to access the table? If not, you will have to grant access to the table logged in as the table owner.

Maybe you are looking for
