SQL*LOADER ERROR 비교 (ORA-2359, ORA-1401)
==========================================
PURPOSE
SQL*LOADER 를 사용하는 경우 ORA-2359 ERROR가 나는 경우와
ORA-1401 ERROR가 나는 경우를 비교한다.
Examples
table 의 desc가 다음과 같다고 가정하자.
SQL> create table test5(a varchar2(1000));
이 경우 delimiter 가 comma 인지 position 으로 구분되는지에 따라 error
message가 달리 나타난다.
1) ORA-2359 : field in datafile exceeded maximum specified length
load data
infile test.dat
replace
into table test5
fields terminated by ','
(a char) 로 실행 시 발생.
---> a char(1000) 으로 하면 error 해결이 가능하다.
2) ORA-1401: inserted value too large for column
load data
infile test.dat
replace
into table test5
fields terminated by ','
(a position(1:2000) char)
---> 이 경우 a position (1:1000) char 로 하면 해결 가능하다 .
* 참고로 + , - 기호와 comma 를 load 하기 위해서는 decimal external을
사용한다. (a position decimal external (10))

SQL Loader Error : ORA-01830: date format picture ends before converting en

I am inserting following data
BES101706     M.E. Deals     7     10/17/2006
through control file :
LOAD DATA
APPEND
INTO TABLE abc_temp
FIELDS TERMINATED BY ' '

SUPPLIER_NAME          ,

But I am getting this error:
ORA-01830: date format picture ends before converting entire input string
inv_data is a date field in the database.

I think it has to do with data format.Exactly.
You have
BES101706*M.E.*Deals*7*10/17/2006
I replace each space with an asterisk. You have 5 columns according to your spec (terminated by '<space>')
SQL Loader doesn't know that M.E. Deals is the supplier name.
It's trying to convert 7 as the date.

SQL*Loader error ORA-00600 and ORA-26095

Hi all,
We have a problem with the SQL*Loader Utility. We use an 8i-Database (8.1.7) and SQL*Loader 9.2.0.1.0. We have no Trims or other functions active in the control file and do a direct path load.
It used to work properly until this morning.
Now we have the following errors (it is in German - but I can translate it):
Satz 90153: Abgelehnt - Fehler in Tabelle SCHEMA1.T_IMPORT.
ORA-00600: Interner Fehlercode, Argumente: [klaprs_50], [7], [], [], [], [], [], []

Has anyone got a clue?!?!?!

Hi,
It's very clear that import 9i is for an import into 9i database.
Upgrade 8i to 9i indicates that we can make an export 8i from 8i database and import 9i into 9i database, but never use a tools like export from other version...
If you want import data from 9i database into 8i use exp tools 8i, and imp 8i.
I devise you to read Metalink note 132904.1 - compatibility matrix for export & import between different oracl version.

Sql load error: ORA-01461: can bind a LONG value only for insert into a LON

EXEC SQL Error: ORA-01401: Inserted value too large for column

Getting this SQL Error: ORA-01401: Inserted value too large for column..on an EXEC SQL Insert statement when writing to an
external Oracle DB from SAP.
On further analysis..it appears that this happens to the fields..when the string length matches the field length.
Example: Plant field is defined as char(4) on the SAP side and it is a Varchar2(4) on the Oracle side.
When a value like '1015' is passed thru a variable in the insert statement then this ORA-01401 error pops up.
No error:
   - if the value '1015' is passed directly in the insert statement to the external table (or)
   - when a value with 3 chars or less(like the first three chars..101) is passed thru a variable defined as 'Plant(4) type c'.
   - when using EXEC sql within SAP
   - when reading from the external db table
This was working ok until the Oracle Patch P9147110 was installed recently.
Any suggestions !

Hello Dvas,
what's the characterset of your external database?
What's the column definition in your external database (byte or character based)?
If you use a characeterset like UTF8 it is possible, that one character needs more than one byte and then you will run into such kind of issues if the definition is too small.

SQL execution error, ORA-01843: not a valid month

Just having an issue with a statement that I have.
Heres my statement:

Whenever I run it it errors and returns:

Can anyone tell why this wouldnt work?

Changing the format of the date seemed to fix it.

Snapshot refresh error: ora-01401 inserted value too large for column

I have an error ora-01401 "Inserted value too large for column" when I try to do a refresh on a group at the materialized view site.
My model is 1 master replicating to a readonly materialized view site. I have 2 refresh groups for separate sets of tables. 1 refresh group work fine...the other I got the above error.
I have doubled the rbs and system tablespace without any help thinking that I must be running out of default rollback segment space.
Anyone has this before?

The error is related to a field, not to any tablespace. This normaly happens to me when I change the lenght or resolution of a field in the base tables. The structure changes don't "flow" to the materialized view! I must "regenerate" them. Normally droping and creating it again to make them receive the new lenght of that field.
Sometimes, when the field changed is not part of any primary key I have changes directly the field in the materialized view as if it was a normal table.
Hope this helps
Luis

SQL*Loader-704 & ORA-12535 error , Oracle 9i AIX, Windows Client

Hi All,
I try to run SQL*Loader from Windows Client to Oracle 9i server on AIX. The control file is in the windows machine.
C:\SqlLdr user/password@myoradb control=mycontrol.ctl
(the data is 300,000 rows, on the same control file)
I get this error :
SQL*Loader-704 : Internal error : ulconnect: OCIServerAttach [0]
ORA-12535: TNS:Operation timed out.
FYI, from the same machine, TNSPing is OK, SQL*Plus run perfectly.
What is wrong here ?
Should I copy the CTL file into the AIX Server and run the SQL*Plus from AIX client console ?
Thank you for your help,
Krist

Have you checked the sqlnet.log file for an indication of the underlying error? You can also enable network tracing in the sqlnet.ora file, by setting trace_level_client=16.

SQL Loader error while loading a date field

I am getting the below error while I am trying to load a table with a date field using SQL Loader
Record 1: Rejected - Error on table RPT_HOST_USAGE, column USAGE_TIMESTAMP.

I have tried options like USAGE_TIMESTAMP TO_DATE(USAGE_TIMESTAMP,'YYYY-MM-DD HH24:MI:SS') but didn't work...
Can you please tell me how to resolve this issue?
Any pointers on this will be helpful
Thanks
Mahesh

I went back and looked at some of my old *.ctl files and I did something simlilar to what you mentioned and it worked for me, but I had surrounded the option in double-quotes and included a colon in front of the item. Example:
TECHNOLOGY_ID,
ENVIRONMENT_ID,
USAGE_TIMESTAMP "to_date(:USAGE_TIMESTAMP,'YYYY-MM-DD HH24:MI:SS')",
AVG_CPU_PCT,
AVG_MEMORY_MB,
....

SQL*Loader and ORA-00054

I was wondering if anyone knows a way to prevent ORA-00054 errors on tables when using SQL*Loader. I'm currently invoking scripts that extract data from a source system and load into a table in my database. I'm concurrently invoking the script because I have multiple source systems to improve my overall time for the loads. Sometimes, I get failures on the loads due to ORA-00054 errors. Can this be prevented? Is these a WAIT command/option that can be turned on for SQL*Loader?

desc toto
Name Null? Type
COL1 DATE
Controlfile :
load data

Indeed, the input format date is SYYMMDD where S=0 if year=19xx and S=1 if Year=20xx.
Thanks for your reply.

SQL*Loader Error Field in data file exceeds maximum length", version 8.1.6

Hi All,
I am trying to load a data file into a database table using SQL loader. I
received the data in an data file but I saved it as a pipe delimited
file.
When I run the SQL Loader command no records are loaded - looking at the log
file I get the following error:
Rejected - Error on table FARESDATA, column FANOTESIN.
Then I tried with substr and doesnt seem to work for values greater than 4000 chars, it only works if the field value is below 4000 chars (say doing a substr for first 3000 chars).
see the code--------
LOAD DATA
INFILE 'p.dat'
APPEND INTO TABLE PROSPECTUS
FIELDS TERMINATED BY '|' OPTIONALLY ENCLOSED BY '"'
TRAILING NULLCOLS
Fanotesin char(4000) "substr(:fanotesin,1,4000)"
We get the error ORA-01461: can bind a LONG value only for insert into a LONG column when using substr for 4000 chars.
Please help!
Thanks,
Rajesh

I believe the problem here is that the ORACLE database regards anything > 4000chs as a CLOB (or LONG). 4000 is the maximum length of a varchar2 field in the database, although of course you can declare larger values in PL/SQL. (Since the incoming data is > 4000 chs it is regarded as a LONG and you cannot therefore use SUBSTR on it)
I think that you must either truncate your data before loading or load into a table with the offending field as a CLOB (or LONG)
and then use PL/SQL to recreate it in a table with a varchar2(4000) which is otherwise identical. (You can select from a LONG into a varchar2(32000) for example and then truncate before writing out to the new table).
