Running .sql file or insert statements

I have a large .sql file compiled from SQL developer from a SQL Server database. Whatever I do, I cannot get the rows to be permanently committed to the oracle db. I tried copying the text directly from the file and running it as a script on the Oracle server which seemed to work but the rows did not actually commit, they weren't available in the program and when I restarted the SQL Developer program they disappeared.
I also tried using SQL Plus and received the same results. I even tried copying just a single insert statement in with no success.
A second problem I have is when copying the entire file over, somewhere around line 500 it starts asking for substation variables, which I have no idea what they are or why it's asking for them.
Thanks for any help :)

Daft question, but have you got "commit" in your script?
Also, you'll need to "set define off" at the beginning of your script - & is the default prompt for SQLPLUS to ask for a variable, so if you're trying to insert "You & Me", it'll prompt you for a value for Me, unless you've got set define off.

How to run SQL files from Java?

Hi,
Can someone point me towards a link on how to run sql files in Java? Thanks.
P.S...if I've been completely blind please go easy on me!

Sorry forgot the formating code thingy
public static boolean executeScript(File script, Connection conn){
    boolean success = true;

In T-SQL, you can try using sqlcmd to invoke sql file
if @@SERVERNAME='abcd'
begin
Master..xp_cmdshell 'sqlcmd -S <ServerName> -i BackupDetails.sql -E'
end
OR
PowerShell
Load the snapins
Add-PSSnapin SqlServerCmdletSnapin100
Add-PSSnapin SqlServerProviderSnapin100
Function Get-SqlInstances {
Param($ServerName = '.')
$localInstances = @()
[array]$captions = gwmi win32_service -computerName $ServerName | ?{$_.Name -match "mssql*" -and $_.PathName -match "sqlservr.exe"} | %{$_.Caption}
foreach ($caption in $captions) {
if ($caption -like "MSSQLSERVER") {
$localInstances += $ServerName
} else {
$temp = $caption | %{$_.split(" ")[-1]} | %{$_.trimStart("(")} | %{$_.trimEnd(")")}
$localInstances += "$ServerName\$temp"
$localInstances
$instance=Get-SqlInstances -ServerName HQDBSP17

Running SQL files in PL/SQL Cartdrige - OAS407

Hai!
I am unable to run the SQL file via a PL/SQL cartridge(without
creating the Stored procedure). I am able to run the SQL file
which is given in the sample&demos through the 'admin' listener
(port 8889). When i doing it through some other listener i am
getting error saying that URL not found.
I think I have configured the virtual path correctly for my
application and Cartridge.
Is there any thing else I am missing?
Thank you

I am working on this too. I am sure that the problem is the
procedures for the HTM are not install correctly. I read one
part of the documentation, it said that you have to log in as
SYS and grant some procedure to USER, but I forgot. If you
found it, PLEASE let me know. Thanks.

Running SQL files in UNIX

Hi,
I have following files
1. SQL file which is created from shell script with same functionality.
2. SQL file which is a Procedure.
Both these SQLs are running successfully on Windows server. Will these SQLs run on UNIX server also?
Do I have to make any change in code so that they will run in UNIX?
Please let me know.
Thanks in advance.

Hello,
The SQL language is exactly the same between UNIX and windows. You only have to check none of your SQL files are refering to OS filenames with path included, because of course, OS path will not be the same between Unix and windows.
You might want to check character encoding and newlines before trying to run the script on a unix-box (especially in production... :-) )
If you can open and read the contents of the file, with say vi or less, you ought to be fine.

Can't run SQL files

I have a Windows XP system and I'm running Sql Developer version 1.0.0.15.
I open a sql file in Oracle Developer and choose Run SQLFile.sql from the Run menu and it gives and error that it can't be started because it isn't a runnable target. However, if I just copy out the text and paste it into a worksheet it runs fine.
Why can't you run SQL when it is opened from a file?

You need to associate it with a connection.
There is drop down list of connections at the top right of each sql window. Pick a connection from there and the run action should be enabled.

Running .sql file from JDev9i???

In JDev 3.2.3 I could just right click on the sql file and invoke SQL*Plus. This does not appear in JDev9i. Could someone please lend some aid?

I think it is simply that the path to your
SQL*Plus is not set (or is incorrect).
Try menu Tools | Preferences
Click on the SQL*Plus element on Left
Enter the path to your SQL*Plus executable
$(OracleHome)\bin\SQLPLUSW.EXE)
and then it should work.

Run sql statement from batch file

How can we execute SQL Statement using Batch file???
I did a test.
create batch file test.bat
sqlplus "username@db /pass" @\script.sql
script.sql file has following statement
select sysdate from dual;
exit
it is working but I want to call sql statement in the same batch file instead of calling .sql script file. how can I do that any idea..

This is very easy in unix shell scripting, but AFAIK, not available with Windows. It's a function of how the shell/command processor handles input redirection.

How to export MySql queryBrowser to oracle's .sql file

Hi folks:
I was trying to export result set from MySql query browser to Oracle. I could able to do
File->Export Result Set-> Excel format...
What I am trying to get is .sql file so that I can run it as a script in my oracle db. Is there any way we can get .sql file with inserts and delimeters ....?
Did you guys get my question.?
Please throw some light on this....
Could be very appreciable ....
Thanks
Sudhir Naidu

As already pointed out the implementation is bad.
You should have:
USERS ( ID )
GROUPS ( ID )
USER_GROUPS( USER_ID,GROUP_ID )The reason for not using the CSV list is that not only is it hard to write efficient SQL against denormalised structures, but it is very difficult to constrain your data properly.
But anyhow, Oracle 10g has a MEMBER OF function. Too bad you're on 9i. You say "new task", is the platform still up for decision?
You could normalise on the fly like this
e.g.
SELECT t.GROUP_ID
      ,EXTRACTVALUE (csv_to_tab.COLUMN_VALUE, 'user')
       user_id
FROM t_user t
      ,TABLE (XMLSEQUENCE (EXTRACT (XMLTYPE
(   '<set><user>'|| REPLACE
(t.users,',','</user><user>' )
|| '</user></set>'), '/set/*'))) csv_to_tab

How to execute a script(.sql) file from a PL\SQL procedure

I would like to know how to execute a .sql file from a stored procedure and the result of it should update a table. My .sql file contains select statements.

Hi!
just go through the following piece of code -
SQL> ed
Wrote file afiedt.buf
1 declare
2    str varchar2(200);
3 begin
4    str := '@C:\RND\Oracle\Misc\b.sql';
5    execute immediate(str);
6* end;
SQL> /
declare
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-00900: invalid SQL statement
ORA-06512: at line 5ORA-00900: invalid SQL statement
Cause: The statement is not recognized as a valid SQL statement. This error can occur if the Procedural Option is not installed and a SQL statement is issued that requires this option (for example, a CREATE PROCEDURE statement). You can determine if the Procedural Option is installed by starting SQL*Plus. If the PL/SQL banner is not displayed, then the option is not installed.
Action: Correct the syntax or install the Procedural Option.
