SQL Loader deletes data, after reporting a file not found error

Question

I have several control files beginning:
LOAD DATA
INFILE <dataFile>
REPLACE INTO TABLE <tableName>
FIELDS TERMINATED BY '<separator>'
When running SQL Loader, in the case of one particular control file, if the file referenced does not exist, SQL Loader first reports that the file could not be found, but then proceeds to delete all the data in the table in which the import was meant to take place. The corresponding log file reveals that the file could not be found, but also states that 0 records were loaded and 0 records were skipped.
In the case of all other control files, if the file is not found, the log files simply report this exception but do not show any statisitcs about the number of records loaded/skipped nor does SQL Loader delete the data in any of the referenced tables. This is obviously the expected behaviour.
Why is SQL Loader deleting the data referenced by one particular control file, even though this file does not exist and the corresponding log file has correctly picked up on this?

Answer 1

in the ressource name box of your file model, when you push the search button ("...") do you see the file ?
Cause the problem can occur when you write directly the path without selectionning the file with the assistant.
Try this.
I think too that that you can't see the data by right clicking and selectionning View Data ?
Let me know the avancement...
