Procedure call and shell script
When i try to pass a shell variable to a procedure call in a shell script it does not work. But a SQL command ( insert ) has no problem taking the shell variable. Has this something to do with context switch. How to get around this prbokem.
`sqlplus <username/password> -silent << EOF
set serveroutput on size 1000000
exec procA; -- works
exec procB($shell_variable); -- does not work
insert into table1 values ($shell_variable); -- works
EOF`
Thanks!
It works to me :
TEST@db102 SQL> create or replace procedure isnumeric (num in varchar2)
2 is
3 a number;
4 begin
5 a := to_number(num);
6 dbms_output.put_line (num||' is a number');
7 exception
8 when others then
9 dbms_output.put_line (num||' is NOT a number');
10* end;
11 /
Procedure created.
TEST@db102 SQL> exec isnumeric(123);
123 is a number
PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.
TEST@db102 SQL> exec isnumeric('abc');
abc is NOT a number
PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.
TEST@db102 SQL>
[ora102 work db102]$ cat callvar.sh
export VAR=$1
sqlplus -s test/test << EOF
set serveroutput on size 1000000
exec isnumeric('$VAR');
EOF
[ora102 work db102]$ ./callvar.sh 123
123 is a number
PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.
[ora102 work db102]$ ./callvar.sh abc
abc is NOT a number
PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.
[ora102 work db102]$

Calling stored procedure from unix shell script
Hello,
I am facing a problem while calling a stored procedure from UNIX shell script. I want to return a output variable from the stored procedure to the UNIX environment.
Here is the code-
#!/bin/sh
OUTPUT=`sqlplus cmag/magnum@dw <<ENDOFSQL
set serveroutput on;
var prd_out varchar2(100);
exec create_pm_window(:prd_out);
exit;
ENDOFSQL`
echo " output is - $OUTPUT"
The problem is :prd_out is not getting copied to shell variable OUTPUT.
I have a dbms_output.put_line in the stored proc create_pm_window and I can see that prd_out is getting populated.
Any help is really appreciated.
Thanks'
RakheeFirst step :
make sure the PL/SQL works as expected.
Does the following display the expected output executed from SQL*Plus ?
set serverout on
declare
prd_out varchar2(100);
begin
create_pm_window(prd_out);
dbms_output.put_line('output is '||prd_out);
end;
I don't have your procedure, but using a dummy procedure like :
Scott@my10g SQL>create procedure foo(p_out in out varchar2)
2 is
3 begin
4 select 'Hello '||instance_name into p_out from v$instance;
5 end;
6 /
Procedure created. and a toto.sh script as :OUTPUT=`sqlplus -s scott/tiger <<EOF
set pages 0 lines 120 trimout on trimspool on tab off echo off verify off feed off serverout on
var mavar varchar2(100);
exec foo(:mavar);
print mavar;
exit;
EOF`
echo "OUT = ${OUTPUT}"
exitIt works fine :[oracle@Nicosa-oel ~]$ ./toto.sh
OUT = Hello my10g -
Sample shell script - to run procedures and shell script
Hi ,
I would like run some procedures in one shell script which passing parameters as username/password@dbname.
1. Execute proce1
2.Execute proce3
3.Execute proc4
Can you please give some script/idea how we will create shell script . I am using SunSolaris Unix operating system.I would appreciate your help.

At a very basic level, based on the information you have provided, your shell script would be something like this:
sqlplus /nolog <<EOF
connect username/password@dbname
exec proce1;
exec proce2;
exec proce3;
exit
EOFBesides this, you could:
(1) Add the shebang at the top, to specify the shell you are using, e.g. #!/bin/ksh for the Korn shell etc.
(2) Ensure that "sqlplus" is recognized by the shell, by maybe running an "ora_env.sh" script that sets Oracle parameters. More likely, if you are using this Unix account for interaction with Oracle, then you may want to add the Oracle parameter information in your .profile or .bash_profile or .csh_profile etc. in the home directory.
(3) Run a few sqlplus commands right before calling those stored procedures, if needed. For example, if you want to exit from sqlplus (and Oracle) if an error occurs while executing any procedure, then add this -
whenever sqlerror exit 1Thus your script becomes:
#!/bin/ksh
# Ensure that Oracle parameters are set by this point
sqlplus /nolog <<EOF
connect username/password@dbname
whenever sqlerror exit 1
exec proce1;
exec proce2;
exec proce3;
exit
EOF(There are other settings as well; it really depends on your requirements.)
Can you please give some script/idea how we will create shell script . I am using SunSolaris Unix operating system.
How to create a shell script ? Well,
(1) Save the commands shown above in a file, using your favorite text editor. Name the file "my_script.sh" or "<a_better_name>.sh" etc. (or maybe ".ksh" for the Korn shell - it's just a best practice, the shell doesn't really care.)
(2) Make your script executable, like so -
$ chmod 744 myscript.sh(3) And then execute it -
$ ./myscript.sh- You could also execute the script in the current shell (as against a child shell) by doing this after Step (1):
$ . myscript.shHope that helps.

How can i call a Stored Procedure procedure from Unix shell script
Hi All,
I want to call a Strored PL-SQL Procedure through Unix shell script.

Register your Shell Script as a concurrent program, Executable execution method "Host", then use fnd_request.submit_request to submit the program.

How to call a shell script in Java ?
Hi there,
i try to call a shell script in java but it wont work.
please can anybody help me.
my Code :
import java.io.*;
public class SendMessage{
Runtime rt;
public SendMessage(){
rt = Runtime.getRuntime();
public void send(){
try{
rt.exec("sendMessage.sh");
System.out.println("Message was Send");
catch(IOException ex)
ex.printStackTrace();
the file called sendMessage.sh is also stored in the same directory as the class File.
the exception never cames up but the script also never starts.
what is wrong ??? :-((
need help !
}rt.exec("sendMessage.sh");Oh, sorry, I didn't see that you tried under UNIX.
BTW you should check for the OS - this stuff is very os and os release dependent.
I have not experimented with this under unix.
But something must interpret that sendMessage.sh file.
Perhaps the hash bang info is used by exec() (did you put a
#!/bin/sh as first line in your .sh file?
If not, try
rt.exec("/bin/sh sendMessage.sh");Regards,

How to call a shell script via ODI
Hi,
I need suggestion on following issues:
1) How to call a shell script via ODI?.. I tried using OSCommand utility .inspite of the execution being successful the data is not written into the new file in the desired format. After processing new file is created in the mentioned location but its empty.
2) I'm calling a procedure in ODI to load data into my fact. But once the fact gets loaded i want to update the log details (num of rows processed,num of rows inserted,num of rows rejected etc) in my log table. I'm planning to use a proc for updating but need to know from where can i find these details. Is there a table in work rep which gives me these info like how we get if we execute an interface.?
Please help me out.. Its urgent
Regards
SurabhiHello,
Question 1 appears a little vague, please elaborate. If you're looking to capture a return value from the command execution, you will need to pipe the return value to a file, then read from there.
The execution information is stored in the SNP_STEP_LOG table in the Work Repository. You will need to do a series of joins to retrieve the exact table that was updated. Good luck with this... -

NoClassDefFoundError when using Runtime to call a shell script
I have a java program that uses the Runtime.exec method to call a shell script that then calls another java program (the shell script and 2nd java program are a 3rd party product I have to call).
When I run my program as root, it works fine. When I run it as a regular user, I get the following error message:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: 'argument'
In the error message above, "argument" is just an argument I had to pass to the shell script, which then calls the 2nd java program. It is this second java program that is throwing this exception it seems. This is all in Linux (RH AdvSrvr 2.5). If I call the shell script on the command line as the regular user, not from the java program, it works fine; but I NEED to call it from the java program... it's a long story.
I have check Environment variables, system properties under both users during the processes and I cannot find any major difference. I have checked file permissions and everything.
Does anybody have a clue what is going on here? Please help me, thank you!Okay, we found the problem. Our in-house MASTER OF ALL found it. The argument that the jvm was trying to load as a class needed to be in quotes according to documentation, but the shell escapes out the quotes when run on the command line, whereas in my java process it was not, therefore the jvm thought it needed to load it as a class.
Clear as mud? -

Calling a shell script from ODI tool OS command
hi,
I am trying to call a shell script from the ODI tool OS command with the following command "sh /Oracle/ODI/backlog.sh"
where "backlog.sh" is the name of the shell script. I am redirecting the output of the script to a file called "backlog.out" and this part is done in the script itself.The ODI session is successful and the output file i.e "backlog.out" gets created in the specified location but the output of the script doesnot get written to this output file.Is this the right way of calling the shell script using ODI OS command.Hi-
It seems there is no input parameters for your script. Please check your script file needs any input parameters and try the syntax below:
path/scriptname.sh input1 input2
where input1 and 2 are input parameters for the script file which you are calling.
Hope this will work for you.
Thanks,
Saravanan Rajavel
