Sqlloader call from pl/sql

Hi guys,
I want to load information from many text files. All of them are stored in many directories. Each directory has one file and there are about 300 directories for each day (see directory structure).
For instance:
c:\Info\2005-11-11 16:06:05\ftp.txt
c:\Info\2005-11-11 18:07:10\ftp.txt
... and 298 more directories with one file each (the name of the file is the same for all).
Is there a way to process all files calling sqlldr from within a pl/sql?
Otherwise, I should implement a routine to read every file, then use utl_file.get_line and parsing every record.
How the loop to read the files can be configured?
As you can see the directory before the file is found is the date in format yyyy-mm-dd hh24.mi.ss, so, I guess, there could be a loop...end loop cycle but I don't know how.
Thanks for your help.
My environment:
windows 2000 server
Oracle 9i EE.

You need a bit of OS jiggery-pokery to do this. Essentially what you need to do is create the external table using a neutral file name. Then use utl_file.frename to rename your first extract file to this neutral name. insert into target table select * from external table. Rename the second extract file to this neutral name. insert into target table select * from external table. rsinse, repeat 298 times.
Cheers, APC

How to make OS calls from PL/SQL?

Hi
I am using Oracle 7.3.4. on Solaris platform. I want to call a unix shell script from a Database Procedure. ( Calling an OS command from PL/SQL code) ( Like the HOST() function available in the Client Side Forms Tool). Anybody can help me?

Why?
If you want to do this sort of thing, you would have to write a Java stored procedure that called out to the operating system. This has a number of security implications-- the OS calls will run as the Oracle OS user, so you could do fun things like deleting or corrupting data files. Frequently, there are more secure/ less complex approaches.

Java works stand alone does not when called from PL/SQL

I have this piece of code, which works as a standalone program: It takes in the en_var and returns a path.
But it wont work when called from a store procedure the line of code p = rt.exec("echo "+envar); returns a path as a standalone program returns null when called from a Oracle store procedure.
Thanks for any help just going around and round in circles.
import java.util.*;
class translate
public static String translatePath(String envar)
Runtime rt = Runtime.getRuntime();
int bufSize = 4096;
byte buffer[] = new byte[bufSize];
String path = null;
Process p = null;
String os = null;
String name = null;
String home = null;
String dir = null;
SecurityManager sm = null;
int len = 0;
try
System.out.println("Calling echo "+envar);
os = System.getProperty("os.name");
name = System.getProperty("user.name");
home = System.getProperty("user.home");
dir = System.getProperty("user.dir");
sm = System.getSecurityManager();
p = rt.exec("echo "+envar);
BufferedInputStream bis = new BufferedInputStream(p.getInputStream());
while ((len = bis.read(buffer, 0, bufSize)) != -1)
System.out.write(buffer, 0, len);
path = new String(buffer);
//p.waitFor();
bis.close();
return path;
catch(Exception e)
System.out.println("Exception "+e);
return "ProcessProblem";
//path = "/rims/live/log";

Still cant get it to work, it doesnt fall over anymore, but when I input $PATH, it will output $PATH instead of the path for $PATH i.e /rims/live: What does your program output please:
Here is my code:
import java.io.*;
import java.util.*;
class translate
     public static String translatePath(String envar)
          Runtime rt = Runtime.getRuntime();
          Process p = null;
          String echoOutput = null;
          int len = 0;
          try
               System.out.println("Calling echo "+envar);
               p = rt.exec(new String[]{"/bin/echo",envar});
               InputStreamReader isr = new InputStreamReader(p.getInputStream());
               BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(isr);
               echoOutput = br.readLine();
               br.close();
               isr.close();
               return echoOutput;
          catch(Exception e)
               System.out.println("Exception "+e);
               return "ProcessProblem";
          //path = "/rims/live/log";
Thanks for all your help so far.

Web Service Call from PL/SQL

Hi Gurus,

I use SOAPUI (OpenSource/free version) to interrogate the web service (read wsdl) and format a sample SOAP envelope to use.
I then use UTL_HTTP and code a HTML POST for that web service, using the SOAPUI generated envelope as template. Supporting WSSE is also not a problem (easily done using PL/SQL).
I posted an example of my approach in {message:id=10448611} almost a year ago - and recent experience having looked at both UTL_DBWS and the plan vanilla PL/SQL HTTP approach, I still recommend the latter.

Refcursor not returning rows when called from non SQL*Plus IDE or other

I have a very weird problem.
We have recently performed a minor upgrade to our oracle database and are now using:

SQL> as you can see, the cursor returns data and the table is updated.
now, our problem is with crystal and also when I use the same test case via another IDE like TOAD.
No data is returned from the list but the table is still updated.
We suspect that something is happening that is causing the table to be updated before the refcursor is opened, or at least before the predicates are applied.
has anyone else encountered this problem before?

nope - it works from sqlplus itermitantly (i.e. we always get the debug output but the cursor only sometimes fetches the rows).
it is almost as if the commit is being executed before the cursor is opened.
I still havn't been able to reproduce it except with the actual scenario that I am working with...Is the code you are dealing with exactly the same as the skeleton you've posted in your original post? Do you perhaps have a generic exception catcher in there somewhere (perhaps catching and hiding an ORA-01555) when the cursor is being fetched?
Not that i expect it to make any difference, but i'm curious as to why you've declared your cursor as IN / OUT ?
p_listcur in out sys_refcursor
the code structure in the real example is almost identical to that test case I produced - the exception handler is only catering for no_data_found, all other errors should be raised as normal.
edit: sorry I forgot to add - it's in/out because apparently that's what crystal reports needs in order to use the refcursor..... I'm not a crystal guy so I can't be any more specific than that sorry......

Java class files works on middle tier but chokes when called from pl/sql

Hi,
I have 2 class files WorkOrder and xxWorkOrder. xxWorkOrder creates an instance of WorkOrder. Both classes are under the /classes directory. Both compile fine and I have used loadjava to upload/resolve both in the database. I can see them as valid under the user_objects table. I created a function using Pl/sql which calls a method in xxWorkOrder. If I remove the line in xxWorkOrder where it creates an instance of WorkOrder, the pl/sql function works fine via sql plus. If I add the line in, it gives me ORA-29532: Java call terminated by uncaught Java exception: java.lang.ExceptionInInitializerError if i run my test again I get a No classdef found error.
If i run the xxWorkOrder class file directly from the server using java, the code works fine with the instantiation of WorkOrder within it.
I'm not sure which step I am missing ? For some reason when the pl/sql function calls the java method in xxWorkOrder and it sees the line where the instance of WorkOrder is created, it chokes.

ExceptionInInitializerError means that whatever is being done at the time it occurs is trying to use some class for the first time so that an attempt to initialize that class is occurring and failing. Such a failure typically means that there is code in a static initializer, such as the foo(); in
static SomeType someVarName = foo();
or just any thing within
static { ... }
in the class being initialized which signals an uncaught exception. It's impossible to say why this would be happening in your particular case without seeing the code. Depending on the release you are using there may be more information (such as a backtrace of the original error) in the .trc file. An example of what I am describing in your case would be if the constructor for WorkOrder invoked a method on some class N, where N hadn't previously been used and where N contained
static Class loser = Class.forName('no/such/Class');
In this (admittedly goofy) case you might expect to see in the .trc file a backtrace for the ExceptionInInitializer error with a sub backtrace identified with "Caused by" that starts with a NoClassDefFound exception or the like. This might work outside the server if "no/such/Class" was present there but had not been loaded into the database.

Webservice call from PL/SQL

Hi,
I am trying to call a RESTful webservice from a PL/SQL block, I am using a 9i DB.
Th webservice accepts a single form-field argument, which is XML string input, below is the code where I am trying to make a call.
I am getting back a very weird error as if the necessary arguments are not being passed, I am not sure if I am passing the parameter in the correct way.

How to Analyse SOAP traffic? (Call from PL/SQL)

Hi,
i distributed a Forte Serviceobject as SOAP Service.
I used Microsoft WebService Studio to acces the Forte 4GL Service. This tool generates the SOAP-request and you can invoke the Forte service. The Request and the response will be displayed.
Everything works fine.
Then i tried an oracle example calling the Forte Service via pl/sql http package. I used the same request (taken out of the WebServiceStudio) and i got the answer "request is not wellform".
Anyone tried the same ? Is there a possibilty to debug the incomming SOAP request ?
TIA
Martin Frenzel

Hi,
i found the problem. Now it works, so we have an easy way to call Forte Service from Oracle PL/SQL.

"identifier DBMS_FGA must be declared" When called from PL/SQL package...

Hi there,
I am trying to call dbms_fga dynamically (of sorts) from a package, and I am getting the error as per the title.
I have tried as many ways as i can think of calling this from another package, with similar results each time.
The user/owner of the package has DBA rights, so it doesn't appear to be a permissions issue.
Oracle Version is 11.1.0.6.0 on Suse.
any ideas on this anyone?
Cheers

DBA is a role.
permissions within PL/SQL have to be directly granted rather than through roles.
i.e. you need to directly grant execute permission on the package to the required user(s).
