Looks like a problem with newline/carriage return characters.
Remove extra newline characters at the end of your file and try.

SQL*Loader-524 using sqlldr

I am getting the following error while running sqlldr80 on 8.0.6.3.1 version.
SQL*Loader-524: partial record found at end of datafile
I followed metalink note 1058890.6 that tells about the bug 735710.
The problem gets resolved when I give a line feed end of datafile.
My problem is the whole system has to be automated where I cannot manually provide a new line in datafile that is automatically placed in a directory from where sqlldr reads it.
Please advice.

You can simply process the file by sed on Unix (on Windows you can implement cygwin to add Unix functionality) or by Perl (works on both Windows and Unix) to add that extra linefeed automatically.
Which obviously is a workaround. You would better upgrade from Oracle 8.0.6, which was desupported many, many years ago.

Both of datafile and control file should have line feed characters at the end.

Oracle sql loader error

options (bindsize=400000)
load data
infile '1377.bmp' "fix 17"
append
concatenate 50000
into table PER_IMAGES
(image_id constant 2004,
image raw(811254),
parent_id constant 1377,
table_name constant "PER_PEOPLE_F")
The above is my control file
The file I am trying to load is a bmp file of size 811254 bytes
unfortunately the size is larger than 64 K hence I have to concatenate it
It cannot be broken into equal pieces
hence I decided to break it into size 50000 bytes each and tried to load 17 pieces and concatenate it as suggested by
metalink
However it does not work
The error message I get is as follows
SQL*Loader-501: Unable to read file (1377.bmp)
SQL*Loader-566: partial record found at end of datafile
SQL*Loader-2026: the load was aborted because SQL Loader cannot continue.
Any clues ?

Oracle8i Std Ed SQL*Loader Error

Please re-direct if another forum is more appropriate for this question:
Continually receive "SQL*Loader-524: partial record found at end of datafile (d:\development\database\cust_info_load.ctl)" error when trying to load data into a table from a character-delimited flat-file.
I've already read the online doc. I've already looked up the SQL*Loader-524 error message without yielding useful information.
I am following the exact syntax for both the *.dat file and the *.ctl file as listed in several Oracle text. The *.dat file has only one line and no matter what I try... it won't load (permissions are not the issue).
I found a web site stating in 8.0.5 you have to enter a linefeed command at the end of each line in order for SQL*Loader to work properly. Thought I'd try it in 8.1.5 (why not). In NT, how do I do this? /n doesn't work; hitting the [enter] key doesn't work.
I have to get this working. Please e-mail me if you have ideas but need further info about either the *.dat or *.ctl files.
TIA! [email protected]

Please send your .ctl, .dat file and the table structure to which you are uploading.
Since I am working with SQL LOADER, I may find a solution.
Thanks

How to load a default value in to a column when using sql loader

Im trying to load from a flat file using sql loader.
for 1 column i need to update using a default value
how to go about this?

Hi!
try this code --
LOAD DATA
   INFILE 'sample.dat'
   REPLACE
   INTO TABLE emp
   empno   POSITION(01:04) INTEGER EXTERNAL NULLIF empno=BLANKS,
   ename   POSITION(06:15) CHAR,

)-hope this will solve ur purpose.

How can we tell if SQL*Loader is working on a TABLE?

We have a process that requires comparing batches with LDAP information. Instead of using an LDAP lookup tool, we get a nightly directory file, and import the two COLUMNs we want via SQL*Loader (REPLACE) into an IOT. Out of three cases, two just check the first COLUMN, and the third needs the second COLUMN as well.
We did not think of using External TABLEs, because we cannot store files on the DB server itself.
The question arises, what to do while the file is being imported. The file is just under 300M, so it takes a minute or so to replace all the data. We found SQL*Loader waits until a transaction is finished before starting, but a query against the TABLE only waits while it is actually importing the data. At the beginning of SQL*Loader's process, however, a query against the TABLE returns no rows.
The solution we are trying right now is, to have the process that starts SQL*Loader flip a flag in another TABLE denoting that it is unavailable. When it is done, it flips it back, and notes the date. Then, the process that queries the information, exits if the flag is currently 'N'.
The problem, is, what if SQL*Loader starts inbetween the check of the flag, and the query against the TABLE. How do we guarantee that it is still not being imported.
I can think of three solutions:
1) LOCK the ldap information TABLE before checking the flag.
2) LOCK the record that the process starting SQL*Loader flips.
3) Add a clause to the query against the TABLE checks that there are records in the TABLE (AND EXISTS(SELECT * FROM ldap_information).
The problem with 3) is that the process has already tagged the batches (via a COLUMN). It could, technically reset them afterwards, but that seems a bit backwards.

Just out of curiosity, are you aware that Oracle supplies a DBMS_LDAP package for pulling information from LDAP sources? It would obviously be relatively easy to have a single transaction that deletes the existing data, loads the new data via DBMS_LDAP, and commits, which would get around the problem you're having with SQL*Loader truncating the table.
You could also have SQL*Loader load the data into a staging table and then have a second process either MERGE the changes from the staging table into the real table (again in a transactionally consistent manner) or just delete and insert the data.

Loading two tables at same time with SQL Loader

I have two tables I would like to populate from a file C:\my_data_file.txt.
Many of the columns I am loading into both tables but there are a handful of columns I do not want. The first column I do not want for either table. My problem is how I can direct SQL Loader to go back to the first column and skip over it. I had tried using POSITION(1) and FILLER for the first column while loading the second table but I got THE following error message:
SQL*Loader-350: Syntax error at line 65
Expecting "," or ")" found keyword Filler
col_a Poistion(1) FILLER INTEGER EXTERNALMy control file looks like the following:
LOAD DATA

Creating SQL-Loader script for more than one table at a time

Hi,
I am using OMWB 2.0.2.0.0 with Oracle 8.1.7 and Sybase 11.9.
It looks like I can create SQL-Loader scripts for all the tables
or for one table at a time. If I want to create SQL-Loader
scripts for 5-6 tables, I have to either create script for all
the tables and then delete the unwanted tables or create the
scripts for one table at a time and then merge them.
Is there a simple way to create migration scripts for more than
one but not all tables at a time?
Thanks,
Prashant Rane

No there is no multi-select for creating SQL-Loader scripts.
You can either create them separately or create them all and
then discard the one you do not need.

Decode Not working in sql loader

I had a requirement of loading flatfile into staging table using SQL Loader, One of the columns in the the Flat file is having values FALSE or TRUE and my requirement is that I load 0 for FALSE and 1 for TRUE which can be achieved by simple DECODE function...I did use decode and tried to load several times but did not work. What might be the problem
LOAD DATA
INFILE 'sql_4ODS.txt'
BADFILE 'SQL_4ODS.badtxt'
APPEND
INTO TABLE members
FIELDS TERMINATED BY "|"
( Person_ID,
FNAME,
LNAME,
Contact,
status "decode(:status, 'TRUE', '1','FALSE','0')"
I did try putting a trim as well as SUBSTR but did not work....the cloumn just doent get any values in the output (just null or say free space)
Any help would be great.....

Hello user8937215.
Please provide a create table statement and a sample of data file contents. I would expect DECODE or CASE to work based on the information provided.
Cheers,

SQL*Loader and DECODE function

Hi All,
I am loading data from data files into oracle tables and while loading the data using SQL*Loader, the following requirement needs to be fulfilled.
1) If OQPR < 300, RB = $ 0-299, SC = "SC1"
2) If 300 < OQPR < 1200, RB = $ 300-1199, SC = "SC2"
3) If 1200 < OQPR < 3000, RB = $ 1200-2999, SC = "SC3"
4) If OQPR > 3000 USD, RB = > $3000, SC = "SC4"
Here OPQR is a field in the data file.
Can anyone suggest how do we handle this using DECODE function? Triggers and PL/SQL functions are not to be used.
TIA.
Regards,
Ravi.

The following expression gives you different values for your different intervals and boundaries :
SIGN(:OQPR - 300) + SIGN(:OQPR - 1200) + SIGN(:OQPR - 3000)

SQL Loader Inserts chr(13) and chr(10) in the first column of every row.

Hi,
I have exported a data in a pipe delimited file using TOAD in one database. Now I want to load the data in my local database using SQL Loader. However every time I try to load the data a double quote followed by a new line is entered for the first column of each row. Unfortunately the delimited file is very big and hence can't be posted here. However I tried the same with a customized table and its data and found the same problem. Below are the table structures and control file that I used.
create table test_sql
a varchar2(30),
b date
insert into test_sql values('51146263',sysdate-3);
insert into test_sql values('51146261,sysdate-1);
EXPORTED PIPE DELIMITED FILE_
A|B|!##!
51146261|04/14/13 4:55:18 PM|!##!
51146263|04/12/13 4:55:32 PM|!##!
create table test_sql1 as select * from test_sql where 1=2;
CONTROL FILE_
OPTIONS(SKIP=1)
LOAD DATA
INFILE 'C:\Users\Prithwish\Desktop\Test.txt' "str '!##!'"

FIELDS TERMINATED BY '|' OPTIONALLY ENCLOSED BY '"'
TRAILING NULLCOLS
A CHAR(2000),
B DATE "MM/DD/YYYY HH12:MI:SS AM"
select * from TEST_SQL1;
After this when I paste it in notepad I get the following result
A B
51146261" 14-APR-0013 16:55:18
51146263" 12-APR-0013 16:55:32.
I have no idea how the quotes or the newline appear. Is this a Toad bug? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Really urgent.
Thanks in advance
Regards

Hi Harry,
I actually thought that the str !##! was causing the problem. Actually my original export has some new lines in some specific columns so I can't keep the new line as my line terminator and hence I kept the !##! as my terminator.
When I put the same data in a notepad and load it there is no problem at all. For e.g I just typed the following in a notepad and the data loaded just fine.
A|B|!##!
51146261|01-01-01 10:10:10 AM|!##!
51146263|01-01-01 11:11:11 AM|!##!
Its just when I load the exported file there the problem arises though I have verified the file using UNIX as well using octal dump and found no hidden characters.

Prithwish

Load XML File into temporary tables using sql loader

Two options that come to mind. Others exist.
#1 - {thread:id=474031}, which is basically storing the XML in an Object Relational structure for parsing
#2 - Dump the XML into either an XMLType based table or column and use SQL (with XMLTable) to create a view that parses the data. This would be the same as the view shown in the above post.
Don't use sql*loader to parse the XML. I was trying to find a post from mdrake about that but couldn't. In short, sql*loader was not build as an XML parser so don't try to use it that way.

How to do it with SQL Loader

All,
I have two tables HEADER_TABLE and LINE_TABLE. Each header record can have multiple line records. I have to load data from a flat file to these tables.Flat file can have two types of records. H-Header, L-Line. It looks as follows.. Each H record can have multiple corresponding L records
H..........
L.......
L......
L......
H.........
L.......
L......
L......
I have HEADER_ID column in HEADER_TABLE and HEADER_ID, LINE_ID columns in the LINE_TABLE.
While loading data using SQL Loader, I need to generate HEADER_ID and LINE_ID values as follows and load them.
H..........<HEADER_ID = 1>
L....... <HEADER_ID = 1><LINE_ID = 1>
L...... <HEADER_ID = 1><LINE_ID = 2>
L...... <HEADER_ID = 1><LINE_ID = 3>
H......... <HEADER_ID = 2>
L....... <HEADER_ID = 2><LINE_ID = 4>
L...... <HEADER_ID = 2><LINE_ID = 5>
L...... <HEADER_ID = 2><LINE_ID = 6>
Is it possible to do this with SQL LODER?
I tried to do this with sequences. But it loaded the tables as follows.
H..........<HEADER_ID = 1>
L....... <HEADER_ID = 1><LINE_ID = 1>
L...... <HEADER_ID = 1><LINE_ID = 2>
L...... <HEADER_ID = 1><LINE_ID = 3>
H......... <HEADER_ID = 2>
L....... <HEADER_ID = 1><LINE_ID = 4>
L...... <HEADER_ID = 1><LINE_ID = 5>
L...... <HEADER_ID = 1><LINE_ID = 6>
Thanks
Ketha

Morgan,
Examples given in the link are quite generic and I have tried them. But my requirement is focused on generating header_id and line_id values as i have described. It seems that SQLLDR scans all records for a particular WHEN clause and insert them into the specified table. I think that if SQLLDR is made to read recod in the data file sequentially, this can be done.
ANy idea of how to make SQLLDR read the records from the file sequentially?
Thanks
Ketha
