SQL Loader problem while loading records from txt file to database table.

I am getting following error while loading records from flat txt file into database table with the help of 'sqlldr' command. I have executed catldr.sql from RDBMS folder but it is still showing same error. I am setting DIRECT = TRUE while issuing sqlldr command. If I try with DIRECT = FALSE then it works fine. Database is Oracle 8i.
SQL*Loader-951: Error calling once/load initialization
ORA-24329: invalid character set identifier
F1 Please.

Hello,
Direct path load, can only be used with SQL*Loader and Database have the same version.
Care to tell the database version and sql*loader version you are using.

  • Upload .txt file into Database Table

    Hi,
    I was wondering if someone could please point me in the right direction. I've been looking around the forum but can't find anything to help me achieve the following.
    I would like to be able to upload a .txt file using a webpage. Then store the information inside this file into database tables.
    eg. contents of mytextfile.txt:
    richard
    10 anywhere street, anytown, somewhere
    111 222 333 444
    joe
    9 somestreet, elsewhere
    999 888 777 666
    peter
    214 nearby lane, overhere
    555 555 555 555
    I would like to insert this data into a table.
    eg. table name = CONTACTS
    userid = primary key (using sequence)
    username = (line 1 - richard, joe, peter)
    address = (line 2)
    phone_no = (line 3)
    As you can see the records will appear 1 at a time and will have a blank line between records. Is there anyway for me to upload a file like this and have it placed into tables?
    I have seen http://otn.oracle.com/products/database/htmldb/howtos/howto_file_upload.html but this seems to be for uploading a whole file and downloading the same file, rather than extracting data from the file.
    I hope I have managed to explain my problem.
    Many thanks,
    Richard.

    Richard,
    HTML DB allows you to upload CSV files via the Data Workshop. That data would then be parsed and inserted into a specific table. Alternatively, if you have your data in an Excel spreadsheet, and it is less than 32k, you can copy & paste the data directly into HTML DB's Data Workshop, which will then parse and import it into the Oracle database.
    The one obstacle you may have to overcome is converting your data from the format you outlined to CSV format. Specifically, you would have to make this:
    richard
    10 anywhere street, anytown, somewhere
    111 222 333 444
    Look something like this:
    "richard","10 anywhere street, anytown, somewhere","111 222 333 444"
    Hope this helps,

  • Loading records from .csv file to SAP table via SAP Program

    Hi,
    I have a .csv file with 132,869 records and I am trying to load it to an SAP table with a customized SAP program.
    After executing the program, only 99,999 records are being loaded into the table.
    Is there some setting to define how many records can be loaded into a table? Or what else could be the problem?
    Pls advice.
    Thanks!!!

    hi Arun ,
    A datasource need a extract structure to fetch data .It is nothing but a temp table to hold data.
    First you need to create atable in SE11 with fields coming from CSV file.
    Then you need to write a report program to read you CSV file and populate your table in BW .
    Then you can create a datasource on top of this table .
    After that replicate and load data at PSA and use to upper flow.

  • Problem while storing items from trailing list  to database

    hi all,
    can anyone help me out. i have scenario where i have to store items from trailing list into database. suppose if there are 3 items in the list, 3 rows should be inserted into database with all the remaining fields same like
    A ,1 , c
    A, 2, c
    A , 3, c where 1,2,3 are items from trailing list. Am iterating the loop.
    What am doing is before saving am checking for duplicates i.e are there any records with the same combination. If yes am doing nothing else am committing the changes..
    As am not doing anything if any duplicte record is present, the changes made to the fields persists and once if any commit happens all the values are getting saved. which is voilating my condition..

  • How to make this faster?? read millions of record from txt file

    Hi there,
    I got an issue. There is a txt file contains 2 million records, I also got another file contains over 10000 numbers. Now, I need to compare this 10000 numbers with that 2 million records if any records contains a number which belongs to 10000 number set, i retrieve this record and keep it. later on, when i finish the comparison i'll write all the result records into a txt file.
    What kind of data structure shall i use to keep the records and numbers? how to make the comparison quicker? Any idea will do!
    Thanks!

    if i were to do it, i will insert bout the records into the db. then do an sql statement on the two tables to get the results. Then get the rs and output it to another text file.
    just my opinion. not sure if this is faster.

  • Sql query to bring single record from right side of a table

    hi
    I have two tables as below:
    create table testsh1 ( idd varchar2(10), name varchar2(20));
    create table testsh2 ( idd varchar2(10), balance float );
    insert into testsh1 values('1','abc');

    insert into testsh2 values('4',1500);
    insert into testsh2 values('4',1500);
    insert into testsh2 values('1',500);
    I am expecting the result below:
    1 abc 500
    2 def NULL
    3 ghi 1000
    3 ghi 1000
    4 jkl 1500
    4 jkl 1500
    That is only records from testsh1 table can come as many times but from testsh2 only we need to bring unique and matching records on column idd.
    Please help
    Thanks

    Hi Shavetha,
    As the testsh2 has duplicates of each record, the DISTINCT of the record has to be record has to be applied.
    Please Try this,
    SELECT IDD, NAME, (SELECT DISTINCT BALANCE
                                  FROM TESTSH2 B
                                 WHERE B.IDD = A.IDD) BALANCE
      FROM TESTSH1 A;Which Outputs:
    IDD     NAME     BALANCE
    1     abc     500
    2     def     
    3     ghi     1000
    4     jkl     1500
    4     jkl     1500
    3     ghi     1000Thanks,

  • SQL*Loader Problem while loading date from earlier era

    Hi everybody,
    I'm trying to load a date with SQL*Loader in Oracle 8.1.6. The value of the date is '11671102004338' with a date format 'YYYYMMDDHH24MISS'. Everytime I try it, I get the error message "ORA-01438: Wert größer als angegebene Stellenzahl für diese Spalte zuläßt" (meens: value is larger than the maximum length of the column). This is a little bit crazy, because the same works in SQL*Plus with the to_date function.
    What I've to do?

    There is nothing wrong with your code it removes the lastline, if there is no carriage return on it.
    If your input file is like:  
       line1 <cr><lf>
               line2 <cr><lf>
               line3 
    The result is: 
               line1 <cr><lf>
               line2 <cr><lf>
    But if your input file is like:
                 line1 <cr><lf>
                  line2 <cr><lf>
                  line3 <cr><if>
    The result is:
                 line1<cr><lf>
                 line2<cr><lf>
                <empty line>
    So when you have a carriage return on the last line, it results in an empty line, can this be the cause of your problem?

  • Performance problem with selecting records from BSEG and KONV

    Hi,
    I am having performance problem while  selecting records from BSEG and KONV table. As these two tables have large amount of data , they are taking lot of time . Can anyone help me in improving the performance . Thanks in advance .
    Regards,
    Prashant

    Hi,
    Some steps to improve performance
    SOME STEPS USED TO IMPROVE UR PERFORMANCE:
    1. Avoid using SELECT...ENDSELECT... construct and use SELECT ... INTO TABLE.
    2. Use WHERE clause in your SELECT statement to restrict the volume of data retrieved.
    3. Design your Query to Use as much index fields as possible from left to right in your WHERE statement
    4. Use FOR ALL ENTRIES in your SELECT statement to retrieve the matching records at one shot.
    5. Avoid using nested SELECT statement SELECT within LOOPs.
    6. Avoid using INTO CORRESPONDING FIELDS OF TABLE. Instead use INTO TABLE.
    7. Avoid using SELECT * and Select only the required fields from the table.
    8. Avoid nested loops when working with large internal tables.
    9. Use assign instead of into in LOOPs for table types with large work areas
    10. When in doubt call transaction SE30 and use the examples and check your code
    11. Whenever using READ TABLE use BINARY SEARCH addition to speed up the search. Be sure to sort the internal table before binary search. This is a general thumb rule but typically if you are sure that the data in internal table is less than 200 entries you need not do SORT and use BINARY SEARCH since this is an overhead in performance.
    12. Use "CHECK" instead of IF/ENDIF whenever possible.
    13. Use "CASE" instead of IF/ENDIF whenever possible.
    14. Use "MOVE" with individual variable/field moves instead of "MOVE-
    CORRESPONDING" creates more coding but is more effcient.
