SQL*Loader with Stored Procedure slow

I have a situation where if SQL*Loader is running then stored procedures returning cursors are excruciatingly slow (about 3 minutes) if the same stored procedure is run via SQL statements it runs fine. The stored procedures also run fine if SQL*Loader is not running. Has anyone seen this before, any thoughts?
Thanks,
ed

My query was:
SELECT *
FROM scheme.table@as400 a
WHERE a.vlvalr = to_char(p_vlvalr)
and a.vlvals = to_char(p_vlvals);
Without the to_char! When I add the to_char, the problem is solved!

Calling SQL * LOADER in stored procedure

Hi Experts,
Can we call sql*loader in stored procedures? . If yes , please let me know the syntax.
Any help will be highly appreciated.
Thanks.

You can also use dbms_schedular to execute any shell or batch file - i guess ->
BEGIN
-- UNIX
DBMS_SCHEDULER.create_job(
    job_name             => 'unix_command_job',
    job_type             => 'EXECUTABLE',
    number_of_arguments => 1,
    job_action           => '/bin/ls',
    auto_drop            => FALSE,
    enabled              => FALSE);
DBMS_SCHEDULER.set_job_argument_value('unix_command_job',1,'/tmp');
DBMS_SCHEDULER.set_attribute('unix_command_job', 'credential_name', 'TIM_HALL_CREDENTIAL');
DBMS_SCHEDULER.set_attribute('unix_command_job', 'destination', 'marge.localdomain:65001');
DBMS_SCHEDULER.enable('unix_command_job');

How to execute .sql file in Stored Procedure?

Hi,
I have an urgent requirement, where i have to execute .sql file form Stored Procedure.
This .sql file will have set of update statement. I need to pass value to this update statement.
Kindly please help me.
Regards,
Irfan

This is required as part of Data Migration where i have to do 100 of table's update. Each time update table will defer, so its better to have in separate script file (.sql). Can u paste some sample/syntax to exceute .sql file from stored procedure. I am new to this PL/SQL.
How have you determined that it's "better" to have seperate scripts? I assume you mean the table name will "differ" (and not "defer" - I assume that's just because English isn't your first language? no problem - I think I understand what you're asking).
So what I think you're asking is that you have dynamic table names but each table needs to be updated in the same way?
Question: Why do you have tables with different names that all need the same process doing to them?
Assuming it's a valid requirement (and 99% of the time doing dynamic coding implies it's not).... you could use dynamic code, rather than 'scripts'...
e.g.
create procedure update_table(tbl_name varchar2) is
begin
execute immediate 'update '||tbl_name||' set lastupdate = null';
end;
As you haven't bothered to provide a database version, any example code/data or explanation of what you're actually doing, you're not going to get any detailed answer. Please do take the time to read the FAQ and post appropriate details so people can help you.

Requirements of SQL Server 2005 Stored Procedures to Develop Crystal Report

Hi All,
I want to learn how to create crystal report off of SQL Server 2005 Stored Procedure. So anybody please let me know from where I can download the documentation on "Requirements of SQL Server 2005 Stored Procedures for crystal report.
I am using Crystal Report XI. Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thank You.

Hello,
When CR uses Stored Porcedures we only look at the last SELECT statement. We can't use TMP tables because they are owned by the system and not the user. Even though you created them under your logon credentials you are not the actual owner. Or so I have found so far.... CR does not have permissions to get to those temp tables. If you can find out dynamically what the table names are called then it may work. I don't have a sample but it has the usual table info with a random GUID or temp name, really long, and changes every time.
What should work is create a real table, not one of MS's tempTables and then push all your data to that table and then the last select statement returns all of your data from that temp table:
SELECT * FROM MYTEMPTABLE.DBO.TABLE.
Then CR should ahve no issues.
It may be that the JDBC driver has problems. Test it using OLE DB or ODBC.
Thanks again
Don

Problem With Stored Procedure

Post Author: Ranjith.403
CA Forum: General
Hi,
Am new to crystal reports with stored procedures
am created a report using a stored procedure in oracle. In that Stored Procedure am Using a temporary table.
After inserting values into the table am assigning to ref cursor.
Refcursor having fields like item,onhandstock,purchase rate
This report working fine in oracle version 9.2.0.1.0 where comes to oracle version 9.2.0.8.0 it's giving the varchar values correctly.
The Number values are showing as 0.
Help me to solve it.
Thanks in Advance,

Try modularising this large procedure into smaller procedures and functions, and determine which part is causing you trouble.

MS SQL Server system stored procedures can't be migrated into Oracle 11g

During database migration from MS SQL Server 2008 to Oracle 11g R2, if the application stored procedure invokes the MS SQL Server system stored procedures (for example: sp_getapplock, sp_releaseapplock ....), these SQL server system stored procedures can't be transferred. See following migrated Oracle application stored procedure for example:
create or replace
PROCEDURE spPwSysID_GetNextID
v_ID OUT NUMBER,
iv_SysType IN NVARCHAR2 DEFAULT NULL ,
iv_Cnt IN NUMBER DEFAULT NULL
AS
v_SysType NVARCHAR2(50) := iv_SysType;
v_Cnt NUMBER(10,0) := iv_Cnt;
v_result NUMBER(10,0);
BEGIN
--SQL Server BEGIN TRANSACTION;
utils.incrementTrancount;
v_Systype := UPPER(v_Systype) ;
IF v_Cnt < 1 THEN
v_Cnt := 1 ;
END IF;
v_result :=sp_getapplock(v_Resource => v_Systype,
v_LockMode => 'Exclusive') ;
IF v_result >= 0 THEN
BEGIN
SELECT ID

BI Publisher 11g - calling SQL Server 2005 stored procedure error

Hi experts
I have been calling succesfully an SQL server 2005 stored procedure for the data model of a BI publisher report in 10g, passing it a customerNo parameter.
EXEC     [dbo].[usp_WelcomeLettersConsumerNo]
          @CustomerNo = :sCustomerNo
However it does not work in 11g I get the error:
[Hyperion][SQLServer JDBC Driver][SQLServer]Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'is'.
which is frustrating as there is no 'is' in the statement (perhaps it is picking up :s?) - I wonder does anyone know if there has been a change in 11g that may be causing this?
cheers
Tim

Problem using SQL Loader with ODI

Hi,
I am having problems using SQL Loader with ODI. I am trying to fill an oracle table with data from a txt file. At first I had used "File to SQL" LKM, but due to the size of the source txt file (700MB), I decided to use "File to Oracle (SQLLDR)" LKM.
The error that appears in myFile.txt.log is: "SQL*Loader-101: Invalid argument for username/password"
I think that the problem could be in the definition of the data server (Physical architecutre in topology), because I have left blank Host, user and password.
Is this the problem? What host and user should I use? With "File to SQL" works fine living this blank, but takes to much time.
Thanks in advance

I tried to use your code, but I couldn´t make it work (I don´t know Jython). I think the problem could be with the use of quotes
Here is what I wrote:
import os
retVal = os.system(r'sqlldr control=E:\Public\TXTODI\PROFITA2/Profita2Final.txt.ctl log=E:\Public\TXTODI\PROFITA2/Profita2Final.txt.log userid=MYUSER/myPassword @ mySID')
if retVal == 1 or retVal > 2:
raise 'SQLLDR failed. Please check the for details '
And the error message is:
org.apache.bsf.BSFException: exception from Jython:
Traceback (innermost last):
File "<string>", line 5, in ?
SQLLDR failed. Please check the for details

What is the data dictionary that stores the SQL text of stored procedures?

I am handling both Oracle 8i on IBM AIX 5L and Oracle9i on SUN Soliars 8 /9.
What is/are the data dictionary tables, or v$ views that store the SQL text of stored procedured and triggers?
Thank you in advance!

If the procedures are not wrapped, you can view them in the dba/all/user_source view. Trigger bodies can be seen in dba/all/user_triggers view.

Returning SQL cursor from Stored Procedure

Hi,
I have a query regarding returning sql cursor from stored procedure to java in oracle 11g.
I want to query some data ex: my query returns A, B, C. Also, now I want to query some other data ex: D, E, F. Now I want to return this data as an sql cursor as a single row . Example: A,B,C,D,E,F. Is it possible to return/create a cursor in stored procedure?
assume both query returns equal number of rows.. however both are not related to each other..

assume both query returns equal number of rows.. however both are not related to each other..It sounds like what you need is a ref cursor.
First thing to remember though is that cursors do not hold any data (see: {thread:id=886365})
In it's simplest form you would be creating a procedure along these lines...

How to use SQL loader with DBF fixed format record

Hi everybody!
My situation is that: I want to use SQL loader with Foxpro DBF format, it similar to case 2 study (Fixed format record) but DBF file has header, how can I tell SQL loader skip header.
Thank you in advance

Another option is to apply SQL operators to fields
LOAD DATA
   INFILE *
   APPEND
INTO TABLE emp
FIELDS TERMINATED BY "," OPTIONALLY ENCLOSED BY '"' (
   empno,
   ename,
   job,
   mgr,
   hiredate DATE(20) "DD-Month-YYYY",
   sal,
   comm,
   deptno CHAR TERMINATED BY ':',
   projno,
loadseq "my_seq.nextval")This is a modified control file of Case Study 3 which originally demonstrated the use of the Sequence parameter

Using SQL Loader in a procedure

Can we use SQL Loader in a stored procedure to load data in an Excel file into the database? If so, how. Also, how can it create a log file to save records that have not been loaded.

You can..Try this out..
CREATE OR REPLACE AND COMPILE JAVA SOURCE NAMED "Host" AS
import java.io.*;
public class Host {
public static void executeCommand(String command) {
try {
String[] finalCommand;
finalCommand = new String[4];
finalCommand[0] = "C:\\windows\\system32\\cmd.exe";
finalCommand[1] = "/y";
finalCommand[2] = "/c";
finalCommand[3] = command;
final Process pr = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(finalCommand);
new Thread(new Runnable() {
public void run() {
try {
BufferedReader br_in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(pr.getInputStream()));
String buff = null;
while ((buff = br_in.readLine()) != null) {
System.out.println("Process out :" + buff);
try {Thread.sleep(100); } catch(Exception e) {}
catch (IOException ioe) {
System.out.println("Exception caught printing process output.");
ioe.printStackTrace();
}).start();
new Thread(new Runnable() {
public void run() {
try {
BufferedReader br_err = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(pr.getErrorStream()));
String buff = null;
while ((buff = br_err.readLine()) != null) {
System.out.println("Process err :" + buff);
try {Thread.sleep(100); } catch(Exception e) {}
catch (IOException ioe) {
System.out.println("Exception caught printing process error.");
ioe.printStackTrace();
}).start();
catch (Exception ex) {
System.out.println(ex.getLocalizedMessage());
public static boolean isWindows() {
if (System.getProperty("os.name").toLowerCase().indexOf("windows") != -1)
return true;
else
return false;
show errors java source "Host"
And now create an Oracle wrapper
SQL>
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE Host_Command (p_command IN VARCHAR2)
AS LANGUAGE JAVA
NAME 'Host.executeCommand (java.lang.String)';
Procedure created.
Now invoke the procedure with an operating system command
BEGIN

Dynamic SQL and Oracle stored procedures

Does anybody has any experience with invoking an Oracle stored procedures
with output parameters, using dynamic SQL from Forte?
Thanks,
Dimitar

I would be interested. We are currently using a homegrown DataMapper architecture with the Microsoft OracleClient. I would like to move to ODP.Net once a production version supporting ADO.Net 2.0 is available. After that, I would then like to look at using an off the shelf persistence framework such as EntitySpaces, NHibernate or IdeaBlade's DevForce.
