Running SQL scripts from CF server

Hi,
I'm new to ColdFusion, but not to database or web
development. I'm wondering if there's anyway I can run a SQL script
on a database from my CF server. I'm running CF 5 on a 2003 Windows
server with a couple Oracle 9i DBs on the backend. I want to move
data from one DB to the other, but can't use a DB link between the
two, so a colleague suggested using CF to migrate the data. Is this
possible?
Thanks

It's possible. For each db, cold fusion needs a connection
and sufficient permissions.

If you want, I did start writing a function reading and executing statements out of sql script with utl_file.
can I issue this command in PL/SQL: EXECUTE IMMEDIATE '@filename.sql';
the function could be extended for DDL, session setting, etc...

Running sql scripts from different directory

Hi
I have sql scripts in different directories as follows:
D:\myapp\sql
- load.sql
- init.sql
D:\myapp\sql\schema
-users.sql
-structure.sql
D:\myapp\sql\populate\
- data1.sql
- data2/sql
load.sql call all the other scripts as below:
@init.sql
@schema\users.sql
@schema\structure.sql
@populate\data1.sql
@populate\data2.sql
All my scripts run correctly when I run load.sql from D:\myapp\sql on comand prompt.
I need a way to run this script from a different directory say D:\ or C:\
I am writing a installer which will execute from a different directory.
Right now I get a file not found error for scripts within schema an populate folder.
Please let me know how can I make this work from a different directory.
Thanks

Hi peter. i think you cannot run files spread across different locations.

You can also use the 'start' command.
You may also want to look in the SQLPlus User Guide and Reference (for your release) at the set command for commands to set the number of lines per page, turn headings on or off, and so on:

Is it Possible to Run SQL Script from Java prog

Hello
Is there any API by which we can run SQl Script file ,
Just by giving database configration parameters and SQL Script file Path ,it will execute that script automatically

You can excute SQL statemetns throught JDBC, but that doesn't have a facility to read those statements from a file. You'd have to write code to read the file and create and execute statements through JDBC. That should be pretty straightforward though.
It's conceivable that there's a third party library out there that does it, if you know what to look for.
If you're not familiar with JDBC, check out http://java.sun.com/developer/onlineTraining/Database/JDBC20Intro/

Run SQL Script from a a Batch File

I'm trying to schedulling a SQL Script by Windows Scheduler:
START
"C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\100\DTS\Binn\dtexec.exe" /FILE "C:\Users\tstjs\TESTESTESTES.sql" /MAXCONCURRENT " -1 " /CHECKPOINTING OFF /REPORTING EWCDI
PAUSE
However, when I run the batch file it giving the error below:
...sql" due to error 0xC00CE556 "Invalid at the top level of the document. Line 1, Column 1". This happens when loading a package and the file cannot be opened o r loaded correctly into an XML document. This can be the result of either provid
ing an incorrect file name to the LoadPackage method or the XML file specified h aving an incorrect format. End Error
How can I solve that problem?
Thanks!

Hi SaQvl,
As Scott metioned, you shall use sqlcmd to execute a tsql script. You can reference the below link

When i run the following sql, it doesn't executes any statement after the 1st SQL.
anyone know the reason?
#!/bin/bash
set -x
echo test
sqlplus /nolog << EOF
set serveroutput on size 1000000
conn userid/pwd@(DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)(Host=10.92.xxx.xxx)(Port=1521))(CONNECT_DATA=(SID=oradbid)))
select '1st sql output' from dual;
exit
EOF.
sqlplus /nolog << EOF
set serveroutput on size 1000000
conn userid/pwd@(DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)(Host=10.92.xxx.xxx)(Port=1521))(CONNECT_DATA=(SID=oradbid)))
select '2nd sqloutput' from dual;

You have to remove . (dot) after first EOF.

Running Shell Script from another server

Hi,
I have a shell job in QA server. Is there any way to run this shell job from another linux server.

ssh serverb /path/to/script.sh
this executes the script on the remote server (serverb) not local!

Run sql script from database

Is this possible in some form?
<cfquery name="name" datasource="dsn">
#query.sqlstatement#</cfquery>

Yes, if you mean creating a query as a string, then using
that in a cfquery. Usually you would need to enclose the query text
within a PreserveSingleQuotes() function if you have parameters
that are enclosed within single quotes, something like this
<cfquery name="name" datasource="dsn">
#PreserveSingleQuotes(sqlstatement)#
</cfquery>

Run e-tester from a server and have staff remotely update scripts

Can we run the floating e-tester from a server and have staff remotely access the server to run and update scripts instead of installing the client on everyone's workstation?

Original Question:
Can we run the floating e-tester from a server and have staff remotely access the server to run and update scripts instead of installing the client on everyone's workstation?
There are different alternatives to consider and different ways to answer the question.
1) You can run e-Tester with a floating license from a server and have people to use remote desktop to run and create scripts.
Pros:
* Multiple users can be updating scripts in the server at the same time.
* There is no need to install e-Tester in any other computer.
Cons:
* If the max number of floating licenses is reached no other person can open another instance of e-Tester.
* Having multiple people running scripts in the Job scheduler will create conflicts therefore is not recommended. Running multiple instances of e-Tester manually shouldn't cause problems, but it is a slow way to do regression testing. The job scheduler can run a script after another without user intervention. Teamwork can be affected if the default settings are changed by different users.
* Running thru remote desktop(or any other remote tool such as vnc) is slower than having etester in the computer. The refresh rate of the screen tends to be slower.
* If multiple users are using the server resources at the same time it can slow down the work of others. The server can run out of memory or it will be slow because the CPU running near max capacity.
2) You can run eTester with a node lock license from a server and have people to use remote desktop to run and create scripts.
Pros:
* Multiple users can be updating scripts in the server at the same time.
* There is no need to install eTester in any other computer.
* Only one license is required.
Cons:
* Having multiple people running scripts in the Job scheduler will create conflicts therefore is not recommended. Running multiple instances of etester manually shouldn't cause problems, but it is a slow way to do regression testing. The job scheduler can run a script after another without user intervention. Teamwork can be affected if the default settings are changed by different users.
* Running thru remote desktop(or any other remote tool such as vnc) is slower than having etester in the computer. The refresh rate of the screen tends to be slower.
* If multiple users are using the server resources at the same time it can slow down the work of others. The server can run out of memory or it will be slow because the CPU running near max capacity.
Notes:
1) Having eTester installed in each individual's computer will allow the person to run tests with no worries about conflicts of server resources or job schedules trying to start an etester instance. Installing etester is a one time thing that takes in general less than 10 minutes.
2) Instead of sharing the server resources you can share the place where the scripts reside. You can place the scripts in a central location and and configure etester to read the scripts from there. Instructions on how to do this should be in the knowledge base (if not please let me know)(Don't be lazy Zuriel, paste the link here).
3) You can consider to have eManager Enterprise if you want to have better organization of the scripts. In eManager Enterprise you can relate your test cases to your scripts, you can run the scripts from a central location, it is less limited for scheduling scripts than the JobScheduler, and it can be accessed from anywhere inside the company with a web browser (for security reasons requires username and password). eManager Enterprise doesn't have the ability to create or update scripts, it uses scripts that were created in eTester already.
eManager can also create schedules conflicts if multiple runs are attempted. There are ways to deal with this situation by having multiple computers to run the tests. (Please post in another thread if more information is necessary).
I hope this helps.

Execute sql script in oracle server

hi how can i run an SQL script in oracle server in every first day of the month? i dont want to run that script manually every first day of the month.

What OS and version are you running?
You can schedule this from the OS side as well if you don't want to use the scheduler.
In linux you can make use of the crontab:
crontab -e
#then paste the following lines with the path to your scripts
#.---------------- minute (0 - 59)
#|   .------------- hour (0 - 23)
#|   |   .---------- day of month (1 - 31)
#|   |   |   .------- month (1 - 12) OR jan,feb,mar,apr ...
#|   |   |   | .----- day of week (0 - 7) (Sunday=0 or 7) OR sun,mon,tue,wed,thu,fri,sat
#|   |   |   | |
#*   *   *   * * command to be executed
00 01 1 * * /<path to your scripts>/script_name.shThe above script will run on the 1st day of every month at 01h00.
your script (the one you are calling in the cron) will have to call the sql script and should look similar to this:
#export all your environment variables here
# for example
export ORACLE_BASE=/u01/app/oracle
export ORACLE_HOME=$ORACLE_BASE/product/<your path>
export ORACLE_SID=ORCL
export PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/bin:$PATH
sqlplus user/password@DB @/path/your_sql_script.sqlHope this helps
