SQL LOADER and ORA-01861: literal does not match format string

Hi,
I've to load data through control_file(.ctl) into oracle table through sqlldr. Oracle 11g, win xp.
as soon as I use - sqlldr dss/dss control=orders.ctl I get error or nothing.
Text file that is generated after loading fails has the following error.
Record 1: Rejected - Error on table ORDERS, column O_ORDERDATE.
ORA-01861: literal does not match format string
I have checked the format of data to be loaded into Orders table is like this : *1996-01-02.*
I checked the format of data in my database by querying sysdate from dual i.e. 10-JAN-10
I thought that changing its format might solve my problem so i tried this:
SQL> alter session set nls_date_format='YYYY-MM-DD';
Session altered.
SQL> select sysdate from dual;
SYSDATE
2010-01-10but still i'm getting the same error. I've to load millions of data. how I can solve this issue.
Please suggest.
Thanks alot.
Best Regads,

Hi,
It's strange ....nobody knew it?. I think this type of load problem will be very common isn't it.... where date column data is in a different format than in the db i.e.
How to change *1996-01-02* in the Control_file to make it able to load in the table where sysdate is like this: *11-JAN-10*
Sample data to be loaded is :
1|36901|O|173665.47|1996-01-02|5-LOW|Clerk#000000951|0|nstructions sleep furiously among |
Desc Orders
O_ORDERDATE NOT NULL DATEI have tested this by creating a test table and a test control file by omitting this O_ORDERDATE and then everything was fine, data was inserted but don't know how to load this DATE also.
Also not able to understand about POSITION in the control file...?

Kam

SQL Error: ORA-01861: literal does not match format string

Hello,
I'm trying to do data mining on a web log which recorded one day web access information from a busy web server. I imported the data into Oracle Data miner, and created a table (WEBLOG). The idea is to create a new field, i.e. session, for the users so that each session could be thought as a representative of a user-intent (aka topic). Now based on this, data mining models would be used to cluster(group) the users based on their similarity. The first step is to prepare the data which involves using SQL queries. So first, all I did was to create a function for date and time. This is the following code I used,
create or replace function ssndate(p_date in varchar2 default '03-01-18',
p_time in varchar2)
return number
$if dbms_db_version.ver_le_10 $then
deterministic
$elsif dbms_db_version.ver_le_11 $then
result_cache
$end
as
begin
return trunc((to_date(p_date||' '||p_time, 'dd-mm-yy hh24:mi:ss')
- to_date('01-01-90','dd-mm-yy')) * (86400/2400));
end ssndate;
The function ssndate compiled successfully.
The next step I took was to create a view through the following query,
create or replace view WEBLOG_VIEWS
as
select (select ssndate(LOG_DATE, LOG_TIME) from dual) as "SESSION_DT",
C_IP,
CS_USER_AGENT,
(CS_URI_STEM||'?'||CS_URI_QUERY) as WEB_LINK
from WEBLOG;
This was successful as well. The problem is in the next step where I try to do data grouping.
create table FINAL_WEBLOG as
select SESSION_DT, C_IP, CS_USER_AGENT,
listagg(WEB_LINK, ' ')
within group(order by C_IP, CS_USER_AGENT) "WEB_LINKS"
from WEBLOG_VIEWS
group by C_IP, CS_USER_AGENT, SESSION_DT
order by SESSION_DT
For this, I got the error,
Error starting at line 1 in command:
create table FINAL_LOG as
select SESSION_DT, C_IP, CS_USER_AGENT,
listagg(WEB_LINK, ' ')
within group(order by C_IP, CS_USER_AGENT) "WEB_LINKS"
from WEBLOG_VIEWS
group by C_IP, CS_USER_AGENT, SESSION_DT
order by SESSION_DT
Error at Command Line:1 Column:7
Error report:
SQL Error: ORA-01861: literal does not match format string
ORA-06512: at "DMUSER.SSNDATE", line 11
ORA-06512: at line 1
01861. 00000 - "literal does not match format string"
*Cause: Literals in the input must be the same length as literals in
the format string (with the exception of leading whitespace).
If the "FX" modifier has been toggled on, the literal must
match exactly, with no extra whitespace.
*Action: Correct the format string to match the literal.
I don't know where I'm going wrong with this.. the to_date function should be fine. In the data that I possess, the date and time are in no format. Example: 30118 and 0:00:09 respectively. If anyone has any clue about this I would be sincerely grateful for any help that I can get!! It's quite urgent..
The Oracle version is 11.2.0.1.0

I'm still in the learning process, so I was hoping that someone could point me in the right direction in order to "fix" the data.Not so much touching a nerve as simply trying to implement a very very poor, but all too common, practice. Since you are a student (which we didn't know until this post) most people will cut you some slack. However, this little exchange should now be burned into your brain as you move forward. One of the very first rules of programming is to ALWAYS use the correct data types for your data. And along with that, never ever depend on implicit type conversions - always use the proper explicit conversion functions.
And as a slight follow-on, when considering the appropriate data type, don't assume that just because we refer to a given element as a 'something number' that it is indeed a number. Telephone "numbers" are NOT numbers. U.S. Social Security "numbers" are NOT numbers. U.S. Postal Zip codes are NOT numbers. All are just character strings which, by convention, we limit to the same characters we use to represent numbers.
And since this entire discussion came up around the representation of dates, you might want to take a look at http://edstevensdba.wordpress.com/2011/04/07/nls_date_format/
Now, go forth and be a smarter programmer than your peers.

ORA-01861 literal does not match format string, ORA-02063preceding line fro

We have upgraded a client from 8.0.5 to 9.2.03. The following query is called from a report that was built using Cold Fusion5. It worked in 8.0.5, but not 9.2.03. When you run the report you get the errors
[Oracle][ODBC][Ora]ORA-01861: literal does not match format string ORA-02063: preceding line from FRPE
Here's the query:
SELECT x.acct, x.obj, x.offn, x.status, x.asofdate, max( decode( x.func_id, 1, t, null ) ) UOB, max( decode( x.func_id, 12, t, null ) ) COB, max( decode( x.func_id, 24, t, null ) ) Rate_Warning, max( decode( x.func_id, 2, t, null ) ) Sector_Change, max( decode( x.func_id, 2006, t, null) ) FRRFRD , max( decode( x.func_id, 2003, t, null ) ) No_Tcode , max( decode( x.func_id, 2004, t, null) ) No_Sector FROM ( SELECT a.acct, a.func_id, count(*) cnt, 'Fail' t, b.obj, b.offn, b.status,a.asofdate FROM frpfaud@FRPE a, frpair@FRPE b WHERE a.acct=b.acct AND a.asofdate='2008-02-29 00:00:00' AND b.bnk not like 'B%' and b.obj not in ('KL') and b.obj in ('GAF') GROUP BY a.acct, a.func_id,b.obj,b.offn,b.status,a.asofdate) x GROUP BY x.acct, x.obj,x.offn,x.status,x.asofdate
Now, this query will not work by running straight through SQL worksheet in either the 8.0.5 or 9.2.03 regions. So I guess it has something to do with Cold Fusion- which I know nothing about. Has anyone had any experience using Cold Fusion to issue a query? What would be the cause of the difference between the Oracle versions? That is the only thing that changed.
Thanks for any input.

I actually want the date format of DD-MON-YY. Which, from what I understand, is the default format for both Oracle 8.0.5 and 9.2.03. I'm trying to figure out why it is now displaying as 'yyyy-mm-dd hh24:mi:ss'. I could convince the client that the code needs changing if I had evidence that this version of Oracle (9.2.03) used a different default date format. Or if Cold Fusion pulls the date differently. Ughh.

Hi,
It is the Date Data type...There's your problem then; NEVER, EVER, EVER to_date a date!! As you have discovered, it leads to problems when your code is run on different clients due to the different NLS settings they may have. You've been lucky, in other words, that your code has been working at all!
What to_dating a date does is this:
to_date(to_char(date_value, <format in NLS_DATE_FORMAT parameter>), <format in NLS_DATE_FORMAT parameter>) You've been lucky because your NLS_DATE_FORMAT has the same format as the data, on your client. On the database, however, it is clearly different.
Simply remove the to_date from your already-a-date value, and you should find that it works fine.

SSIS OLE DB Data Source: literal does not match format string

Dear All,
this is my first post on this forum, so sorry if I choose wrong category for this question, but I stuck...
I'm using SSIS from SQL Server 2k8 R2 in Windows Server 2k8 R2. I have installed Oracle Client 10.2.0.2 32 bits and Oracle Client 10.2.0.4 64bits. I want to connect to Oracle 8i and Oracle 9i by these clients.
Unfortunately when I want to see a preview, only error occurs to me:
ORA-01861: literal does not match format string (OraOLEDB)
I have read a lot about this issue but nothing helps me (to_date, cast, convert etc.).
This is query which I use:
SELECT COMPANYID, TRANSACTIONTYPE, TRANSACTIONDATE,
PRODUCT, PRODUCTIONSITE, BATCHNUMBER,
BINNUMBER, QUANTITYSTOCKUNIT, QUANTITY,
UNITOFMEASURE, TRANSACTIONCURRENCYID, COST
FROM APPS.DW_PRODUCTION
WHERE TRANSACTIONDATE >= '20050101'
AND TRANSACTIONDATE < '99991231'I have investigated that the problem is with TRANSACTIONDATE column (which is VARCHAR2 data type in database).
I want also inform You that the same query in SSIS 2005 on Windows 2005 64 bits worked fine.
Could You help me to find a solution?
Thanks in advance,

put {noformat}{noformat} tags into the message and encoded the < symbol so that it formats correctly.

SQL query error - Literal does not match format string

Hi All,
When I am removing these code form query then it is running fine else it is giving error of "Literal does not match format string."
AND trunc((SYSDATE)) > DECODE(fifs.id_flex_structure_name, 'XXX Service Agreement', trunc(TO_DATE
(pac.segment3, 'YYYY/MM/DD HH24:MI:SS')),trunc(SYSDATE) )
Regards,
Ajay

It is flexfield segment so it can contain anything. For my query it is returning date.....Oh dear. Two really bad design decisions in one, there - storing dates as varchar2 and storing more than one type of data in one column. I suggest you read this: http://www.simple-talk.com/opinion/opinion-pieces/bad-carma/ in order to see just why that might be a bad design.
If you have any influence at all over the way your tables/app is designed, then I would highly recommend changing the design, as it will save you countless headaches like the one you've currently got.
If you are absolutely stuck with that design, then a) poor you and b) you'll have to add in some filters onto your queryto make sure you're only selecting rows with dates in that column.

Error: Literal does not match format string

Can anyone help me with the query below. I am trying to insert CMPGN_ID, PGM_KEY, CMPGN_BEGIN_DT into TEMP.
I get an error 'Literal does not match format string' for 'SELECT to_char(add_months(SYSDATE,-1),'YYYYMM') from dual'
CMPGN_BEGIN_DT has a data type of DATE.
INSERT INTO TEMP (CMPGN_ID, PGM_KEY, CMPGN_BEGIN_DT)
VALUES(
('NCR_'|| (select to_char(add_months(SYSDATE,-1),'YYYYMM') from dual)),
(SELECT PGM_KEY FROM PROGRAM WHERE PGM_NAME = 'NCR'),
(SELECT to_char(add_months(SYSDATE,-1),'YYYYMM') from dual)
Thanks

INSERT INTO TEMP (CMPGN_ID, PGM_KEY, CMPGN_BEGIN_DT)
SELECT 'NCR_'|| to_char(add_months(SYSDATE,-1),'YYYYMM'),
PGM_KEY,
to_char(add_months(SYSDATE,-1),'YYYYMM')
FROM PROGRAM
WHERE PGM_NAME = 'NCR';Datatypes are unclear, may need datatype casting with date column, but otherwise the above should work.

SQL LOADER and ORA-01861: Please ignore,,my mistake...its duplicate

Hi,
I've to load data through control_file(.ctl) into oracle table through sqlldr. Oracle 11g, win xp.
as soon as I use - sqlldr dss/dss control=orders.ctl I get error or nothing.
Text file that is generated after loading fails has the following error.
Record 1: Rejected - Error on table ORDERS, column O_ORDERDATE.
ORA-01861: literal does not match format string
I have checked the format of data to be loaded into Orders table is like this : *1996-01-02.*
I checked the format of data in my database by querying sysdate from dual i.e. 10-JAN-10
I thought that changing its format might solve my problem so i tried this:
SQL> alter session set nls_date_format='YYYY-MM-DD';
Session altered.
SQL> select sysdate from dual;
SYSDATE
2010-01-10but still i'm getting the same error. I've to load millions of data. how I can solve this issue.
Please suggest.
Thanks alot.
Best Regads,
Kam

Why my XML is not loading ?? (ORA-19007: Schema - does not match expected )

Hi,
I want to load a XML document in structured XMLType. You can run my code on your database if you have a directory object called LOG_DIR. I am on Oracle 10.1 .
The schema is a simple example which describe a database table(like it will have 1 or more columns and 0 or more indexes). My schema looks like,
<xs:schema elementFormDefault="qualified" attributeFormDefault="unqualified" xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">
<xs:element name="Tables" type="Table">
<xs:annotation>
<xs:documentation>Table defination</xs:documentation>
</xs:annotation>
</xs:element>
<xs:element name="table_name" type="xs:string"/>
<xs:complexType name="Table">
<xs:sequence>
<xs:element name="Column" type="Column" minOccurs="1"/>
<xs:element name="Index" type="Index" minOccurs="0"/>
</xs:sequence>
</xs:complexType>
<xs:complexType name="Column">
<xs:annotation>
<xs:documentation>Column of the table</xs:documentation>
</xs:annotation>
<xs:sequence>
<xs:element name="Name" type="xs:string" minOccurs="1"/>
<xs:element name="Type" type="xs:string" minOccurs="1"/>
<xs:element name="Capacity" type="xs:decimal" minOccurs="1"/>
</xs:sequence>
</xs:complexType>
<xs:complexType name="Index">
<xs:annotation>
<xs:documentation>Index on the table</xs:documentation>
</xs:annotation>
<xs:sequence>
<xs:element name="Name" type="xs:string" minOccurs="1"/>
<xs:element name="Type" type="xs:string" minOccurs="0"/>
</xs:sequence>
</xs:complexType>
</xs:schema>
I registered the schema,
BEGIN
DBMS_XMLSCHEMA.registerSchema(
SCHEMAURL => 'tables.xsd',
SCHEMADOC => bfilename('LOG_DIR','tables.xsd'),
CSID => nls_charset_id('AL32UTF8')
END;
This was successfull, also the following create table was ok,
CREATE TABLE TMP_XML_TABLES
file_name VARCHAR2(2000),
load_date DATE,
xml_document XMLType
XMLType COLUMN xml_document
XMLSchema "http://xmlns.oracle.com/xdb/schemas/TDB/tables.xsd"
ELEMENT "Tables";
Now I have a XML document,
<Tables xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://xmlns.oracle.com/xdb/schemas/TDB/tables.xsd">
<table_name>trades</table_name>
<Column><Name>trade_id</Name><Type>varchar2</Type><Capacity>50</Capacity></Column>
<Column><Name>source</Name><Type>varchar2</Type><Capacity>100</Capacity></Column>
<Column><Name>trade_date</Name><Type>date</Type></Column>
<Column><Name>trader</Name><Type>varchar2</Type><Capacity>200</Capacity></Column>
<Index><Name>trades_pk</Name><Type>btree</Type></Index>
<Index><Name>trades_idx1</Name><Type>bitmap</Type></Index>
</Tables>
When I am trying to load this, I get the error,
SQL> INSERT INTO TMP_XML_TABLES
2 VALUES
3 ('tables1.xml',
4 sysdate,
5 XMLType
6 (
7 bfilename('LOG_DIR','tables1.xml'),
8 nls_charset_id('AL32UTF8')
9 )
10 );
INSERT INTO TMP_XML_TABLES
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-19007: Schema - does not match expected tables.xsd.
Can somebody please explain the cause ???
Thanks and Regards

A quick search of the forum for ORA-19007 should have allowed you to find the answer to your problem. Since you XML Schema does not declare a target namespace you need to use the xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation tag rather than the schemaLocation tag..
Also please do not use URLs starting http://xmlns.oracle.com for your schemaLocation hint. If you do no own your own domain I'd suggest example.org...
Finally please make sure that your XML Instance is valid per your XML Schema before posting. You can do this using tools like JDeveloper or XMLSpy. What should have been a 5 min repsonse took me over 20 mins to work through due to the errors in the XML Schema...
Anyway here's a working example for you

The folllowing shows how you can do this from SQL and then create a view which contains the metadata and document content. The advantage of this approach is you can now load the documents using FTP or WebDAV.

ORA-19007: Schema - does not match expected T0090.xsd for non xsd owner

I have registered an xsd in /home/divload/xsd/T0090.xsd. User "prmt" is the owner of this resource. User prmt can schemavalidate xml against this xsd just as it is now. However, I have package code in "prmt_app" user account that will actually do the schemavalidate - not prmt user. When I run the exact same code using the exact same xml with the T0090.xsd above I am getting ORA-19007: Schema - does not match expected T0090.xsd. prmt_app has "all" privs on "/home", "/home/divload", "/home/divload/xsd", and "/home/divload/xsd/T0090.xsd".

Only the schema owner can use the schema or everyone can use the schema and I cannot grant access to a single user other than myself.

Lightroom v. 3.6 and Sony A99 RAW does not match

I recently bought the newest Sony A99 camera, but it seems L.v. 3.6 does not manage this (aparently new) type of RAW-pictures.
Do I have to buy the L.v.4 or can I use v. 3.6 with changing some settings?
Thank you

Hello mJim,
It works. Thank you for your help.

Under Save as, extension does not match format chosen (ie, if I choose JPG, it gives my file a IIF extension. I have to choose JPEG 2000 to get JPG, all are off by one position)

Did you install plug-ins from a previous version of Photosop (or point the additional plug-ins to a previous version)? Photoshop CS6 has changed the location and way of installing plug-ins. All required plug-ins are stored internally–the location depends on the OS–and only non-Adobe 3rd party plug-ins should now be installed in the main Plug-ins folder.
You'll need to clean out and/or fix your plug-ins to get the correct behavior back...

ORA-19007 - Schema does not match

On my database, we have two schemas with matching tables in each - one for active data and one for data that is being held for longer-term research. Both contain an XMLType column registered to the same schema. However, when I try to insert directly from the active into the archive, I get the following:
SQL> insert into eci_archv_schema.rev_item_earn_dtl_archv
2 select * from eci_schema.rev_item_earn_dtl
3 where ROWNUM = 1;
insert into eci_archv_schema.rev_item_earn_dtl_archv
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-19007: Schema http://xmlns.foo.com/1.3.1/ABC.xsd does not match expected http://xmlns.foo.com/1.3.1/ABC.xsd.
The only way in which I can successfully move the data from one to the other is to wrap the select in one of the following:
1. XMLType.createXML(my_xml_column.getCLOBVal())
2. XMLType.createNonSchemaBasedXML(my_xml_column)
Both of these take an exceptionally long amount of time to complete and cause my archiving process to be very, very slow. It would appear that because the schemas were registered under different database schemas, they are somehow seen as incompatible. Is this the case or do they actually not match in some other way? Is there an easy way to compare them?
FYI: We are running 11.2.0.3 but this also occurs on 11.2.0.2. Any help would be appreciated.

It would appear that because the schemas were registered under different database schemas, they are somehow seen as incompatible. Possibly.
Is this the case or do they actually not match in some other way? Is there an easy way to compare them?Are both XML schemas identical?
If so, why not register only one globally and give access to both DB schemas?
Does XML instances have xsi:schemaLocation or xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation attributes?
Are they the same?
A test case would be welcome actually.

Song file and info in iTunes does not match what plays

Hi I have a question. I purchased an album in the iTunes store and it worked fine. A few days later it was released that the iTunes Plus version was available and I could upgrade it. So I did that. After I did that I know notice that the file on my system and in iTunes does not match the song that plays. The order in the system and iTunes is correct. Is there a way that I can fix this so that the file and the title match the correct song without having to delete it and repurchase the album?

Don't repurchase it - you'll just be out more money.
contact itS and report this problem.

Their first reply will be nonsense, but reply back to THAT and you may get somewhere.
