SQLLoader NULL column load in error table

Hi ,
Following is the the data file

AjayDehlli
note: before Ajaydehli 6blanks are there
File is fixed width Id(1:6), name(7;12),location (12:40)
when ID is not null then I want to load in the prescriber table
when ID is null then I want to load in the err_prescriber table.
LOAD DATA
Append
INTO TABLE ERR_PRESCRIBER_LKP

LOC     POSITION(18:19)      CHAR      "ltrim(rtrim(:LOC))"
this script is loading the first record in the PRESCRIBER_LKP in table but not the second record in the error table.
Could you please help in this

There are two parameters to consider
discardmax – [ALL] The maximum number of discards to allow.
errors – [50] The number of errors to allow on the load.

CKM IS NOT LOADING IN error tables

Hi everyone,
I have created an interface and added a check constraint to the target. but i see that the interface errors out with a check constraint failure but does not load the error table. however, it loads the ikm table and ckm table. iam i missing out something?

babu

Ankit,
Thanks so much for your help. Let me explain the scenario iam in and what i want. we have a master repository and three wr's . I am presntly working on schema x in dev. I created interface i in x and generated a scenario for this.I exported this scenario and imported into the operator of qa. I have a schema x in qa too. but this schema is empty..has no objects. I executed the imported scenario in qa operator. It ran well but executed the same in x schema of dev. In the execution option i have selected the qa context and agent as local. b)I executed the scenario again this time with qa context and qa agent as well. this time the operator hung up. I was wondering if i need to have the same target table in qa schema to execute this scenario..
Also, how are we going to tell the execute file(scenario) that it needs to execute in x schema in qa environment. is it by selecting the agent that connects to the qa environment? Please clarify..thanks so much once again for your help..
regards,
Babu

Sql Loader - Decimal numbers showing in null column

Greetings,
My apologies if this is in the wrong forum section. It seemed to be the most logical.
I have added new column to a control file used in a sql loader upload and I am getting unexpected results. Long story short, I copy foxpro tables from a network directory to my local pc. A foxpro exe converts these tables to .dat files. Sql loader then uploads the .dat files to matching oracle tables. I've run this program from my pc for years with no problems.
Problem now: We added a new column to a foxpro table and to the matching oracle table. This column in FoxPro in null for now - no data at all. I then added the new column to my ctl file for this table. The program runs, sql loader does it's thing with no errors. However, in the new field in Oracle, I'm finding decimal numbers in many of the records, when all records should have null values in this field. I've checked all other columns in the oracle table and the data looks accurate. I'm not sure why I'm getting these decimal values in the new column.
My log and bad files show no hints of any problems. The bad file is empty for this table.
At first I thought the positioning of the new column in the fox table, .ctl file and the oracle table were not lining up correctly, but I checked and they are.
I've double checked the FoxPro table and all records for this new column are null.
I'm not sure what to check for next or what to test. I am hoping someone in this forum might lend a clue or has maybe seen this problem before. Below is my control file. The new column is the last one: fromweb_id. It is a number field in both FoxPro and Oracle.
Thanks for any advise.

FROMWEB_ID)

I apologize for not explaining how this was resolved. Sql Loader was working as it should.
The problem was due to new fields being added to the FoxPro table, along with the fromweb_id column, that I was not informed about. I was asked to add a column named fromweb_id to the oracle jobs table and to the sql-loader program. I was not told that there were other columns added at the same time. In the foxpro table, the fromweb_id column was the last column added.
The jobs.dat file contained data from all columns in the foxpro table, including all the new columns. I only added the "fromweb_id" to the control file, which is what I was asked to do. When it ran, it was getting values from one of the new columns and the values were being uploaded into the fromweb_id column in Oracle. It is that simple.
When I had checked the FoxPro table earlier, I did not pickup on the other new columns. I was focussing in on looking for values in the fromweb_id column. When back-tracing data in the jobs.dat file, I found a value in the fromweb_id column that matched a value in a differnt column (new column) in FoxPro. That is when I realized the other new columns. I instantly knew what the problem was.
Thanks for all the feedback. I'm sorry if this was an inconvenience to anyone. I'll try to dig a little deeper next time. Lessons learned...

Options:
1) you are wrong about privileges OR
2) you have the privilege only when you connect via SQL*Plus (or whichever other tool you used to test the insert).
Is it possible that during your test you enabled the role which granted you the INSERT privilege - and that SQL*Loader doesn't do this?
Can you see the table in this list?

FDMEE Import error "No periods were identified for loading data into table 'AIF_EBS_GL_BALANCES_STG'

Hi,
We are having trouble while importing one ledger 'GERMANY EUR GGAAP'. It works for Dec 2014 but while trying to import data for 2015 it gives an error.
Import error shows " RuntimeError: No periods were identified for loading data into table 'AIF_EBS_GL_BALANCES_STG'."
I tried all Knowledge docs from Oracle support but no luck. Please help us resolving this issue as its occurring in our Production system.
I also checked all period settings under Data Management> Setup> Integration Setup > Global Mapping and Source Mapping and they all look correct.
Also its only happening to one ledger rest all ledgers are working fine without any issues.
Thanks

Hi,
there are some Support documents related to this issue.
I would suggest you have a look to them.

Column not found error while populatin a oracle table with ODI USer

Hi,
I am trying to populate a column in a oracle table with the ODI USER name using the function getUser("USER_NAME") in the Mapping column of the Interface, But the interface throwhing an error *Column not found : Supervisor in Statement [Select......]*. but it's working fine with getUser("I_USER') the column is populating the user identifier.
can any one help me out why user is not populating.
Thanks

Enclose the call to the getUser api inside single quotes
'<%=getUser("USER_NAME")%>'ID being a number can be used directly but USER_NAME returns a string that needs to be quoted

How to find out the NULL columns in the table?

Hi,
Please provide the query to find the null columns in the table. Here, all rows in the table have same column as null. It won't change.
Table
c1 c2 c3 c4
X C 10

I wanna find out as C2 is the nullable column.
Thanks in advance !!

Below code might be solution for finding NULL valued in columns in a table and if it is solution .kindly give me points for the same.
declare

XMLGEN: Produce XML dump of a table WITH tags for null column values

I am new to generating XML so bear with me....
We have a customer who needs an XML extract of data, including tags for any column that is null.
I created a simple test case below using DBMS_XMLGEN.getXML. The first row (A1) has no null values and thus tags for columns A, BEE and CEE are produced. The second row (A2) has null in column BEE and thus tags for only columns A and CEE are produced.
Is there a way to force a tag for null column BEE in the second row?
create table foo (A varchar2(10), BEE number, CEE date);
insert into foo values ('A1',1,sysdate);
insert into foo values ('A2',null,sysdate);
SELECT DBMS_XMLGEN.getXML('SELECT * FROM foo') FROM dual;
<ROWSET>
<ROW>
<A>A1</A>
<BEE>1</BEE>
<CEE>27-SEP-12</CEE>
</ROW>
<ROW>
<A>A2</A>
<CEE>27-SEP-12</CEE>
</ROW>
</ROWSET>

If you want to stick with DBMS_XMLGEN, you're gonna have to use PL/SQL and setNullHandling procedure.

SQL Loader Constraints with Column Objects and Nested Tables

I am working on loading a Table that (god forbid) contains columns, column objects, and nested tables (which contains several depth of column objects). My question is does SQL Loader have a hidding undocumented feature where it states how the column objects must be grouped in refereneced to the nested tables within the loader file? I can load the various column objects, and nested tables fine right now, however, I am loading them all in strange and insane order. Can anyone answer this question? Thanks.

I just noticed that my email is wrong. If you can help, plese send email to [email protected]

Vishal I always follow this step
1) Alter table <<tablename>> add(<<columnname>> <<datatype>>)
2) Update <<tablename>> set <<columnname>>=<<anyvalue>>
3) Alter table <<tablename>> modify(<<columnname>> <<datatype>> not null)
else
1) rename <<tablename>> to <<tablenamebk>>
2) drop table <<tablename>>
3) Alter table <<tablenamebk>> add(<<columnname>> <<datatype>>)
4) update <<tablenamebk>> set <<columnname>>=<<anyvalue>>
5) create table <<tablename>> (with additional columns with not null)
6) insert into <<tablename>> select * from <<tablenamebk>>

Using dbms_lob to load image into table

I am trying to load a set of images from my DB drive into a table. This works fine when I try to load only 1 record. If I try to load more than 1 record, first gets created but I get this error, and it doesn't load the images for the rest of them.
ORA-22297:     warning: Open LOBs exist at transaction commit time
Cause:     An attempt was made to commit a transaction with open LOBs at transaction commit time.
Action:     This is just a warning. The transaction was commited successfully, but any domain or functional indexes on the open LOBs were not updated. You may want to rebuild those indexes.
Am I missing something in the code that's needed?
in_file UTL_FILE.FILE_TYPE;
bf bfile;
b blob;
src_offset integer := 1;
dest_offset integer := 1;
CURSOR get_pics is select id from emp;
BEGIN
FOR x in get_pics LOOP
BEGIN
insert into stu_pic(id,student_picture)
values(x.id,empty_blob()) returning student_picture into b;
l_picture_uploaded := 'Y';
bf := bfilename('INTERFACES',x.student_id || '.' || p_image_type);
dbms_lob.fileopen(bf,dbms_lob.file_readonly);
dbms_lob.open(b,dbms_lob.lob_readwrite);
dbms_lob.loadBlobFromFile(b,bf,dbms_lob.lobmaxsize,dest_offset,src_offset);
dbms_lob.close(b);
dbms_lob.fileclose(bf);
EXCEPTION when dup_val_on_index then null;
END;
END LOOP;
END;

There are two methods you can use.
1. Create an external table with those images(BLOB column) and then use that external table to insert into another table.

I did a little investigating, and it doesn't add up.
when i run
select max(lengthb(notes)) from NRIS.NRN_REPORT_NOTES
I get a return of
643
That tells me that the largest size instance of that column is only 643 bytes. But EVERY insert is failing.
Here is the loader file header, and first couple of inserts:

Field in data file exceeds maximum length...
I am not seeing why this would be failing.

HI,
the problem is delimited data defaults to char(255)..... Very helpful I know.....
what you need to two is tell sqlldr hat the data is longer than this.
so change notes to notes char(4000) in you control file and it should work.
cheers,

How to capture Field validation errors in the Error table in ODI 11g

Hello,
We are using ODI 11g (11.1.1.5) and the scenario is to read the data from a flat file (.txt) and do a bulk insert into MS SQL Server database table.
We need to capture the error records (if the source field size is greater than the target column size) into the error table. However the interface errors out at step "Loading - SrcSet0 - Load data (BULK INSERT)" with error message "SQLServer JDBC Driver][SQLServer]Bulk load data conversion error (truncation) for row 33, column 6" but these errors are not being inserted into the error table.
Is there a way to capture these errors in the error table? Below is the KM details.
LKM: LKM File to MSSQL (BULK)
CKM: CKM SQL
IKM: IKM MSSQL Incremental Update
FLOW_CONTROL is set to true for the IKM.
Thanks,
Krishna

Hello,
I had the same problem with ODI when I was trying BULK INSERT of the txt file into MS SQL. Check the cell(s) in your source file (txt) - it looks like the value in hte cell has hiding symbols: when pressing F2 tryng edit the value in the cell the coursor appared far to the right from the right end of the value. So, try to use backspace to delete the hiding symbols and verify the above. If avasrything is OK, then modify your txt file. Let me know if it works.
BTW , I've created procedure inside the MS SQL 2008R2, which BULK INSERTed records into temporary (#...) table and immediatelly, without any verification all the records were inserted into the final table in the DWH here is the statement:
if object_id('TEMPDB..#<table>','U') is not null drop table #<table>
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[#<table>]
[1] [varchar] (50) NULL,
[2] [varchar] (100) NULL,
[3] [varchar] (100) NULL,
[4] [varchar] (100) NULL,
[5] [varchar] (100) NULL,
[6] [varchar] (100) NULL,
[7] [varchar] (100) NULL,
[8] [varchar] (100) NULL,
[9] [varchar] (100) NULL,
[10] [varchar] (100) NULL,
[11] [varchar] (100) NULL
) ON [PRIMARY]
bulk INSERT #<table> FROM 'N:\<table>.txt'
with
(FIRSTROW=2,KEEPNULLS,CODEPAGE=1252,FIELDTERMINATOR='\t'
INSERT
INTO <table>
SELECT
* FROM #<table>
and it works! Let me also know if you find any other way around.

Anatoli
