To load an XML document into 40 tables

How do I load a large XML document into 40 tables. Most of the exmaples, I see only load one table into the Orcale database?

From the above document:
Storing XML Data Across Tables
Question
Can XML- SQL Utility store XML data across tables?
Answer
Currently XML-SQL Utility (XSU) can only store to a single table. It maps a canonical representation of an XML document into any table/view. But of course there is a way to store XML with the XSU across table. One can do this using XSLT to transform any document into multiple documents and insert them separately. Another way is to define views over multiple tables (object views if needed) and then do the inserts ... into the view. If the view is inherently non-updatable (because of complex joins, ...), then one can use INSTEAD-OF triggers over the views to do the inserts.
-- I've tried this, works fine.

How to load a XML file into a table

Hi,
I've been working on Oracle for many years but for the first time I was asked to load a XML file into a table.
As an example, I've found this on the web, but it doesn't work
Can someone tell me why? I hoped this example could help me.
the file acct.xml is this:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<ACCOUNT_HEADER_ACK>
<HEADER>
<STATUS_CODE>100</STATUS_CODE>
<STATUS_REMARKS>check</STATUS_REMARKS>
</HEADER>
<DETAILS>
<DETAIL>
<SEGMENT_NUMBER>2</SEGMENT_NUMBER>
<REMARKS>rp polytechnic</REMARKS>
</DETAIL>
<DETAIL>
<SEGMENT_NUMBER>3</SEGMENT_NUMBER>
<REMARKS>rp polytechnic administration</REMARKS>
</DETAIL>
<DETAIL>
<SEGMENT_NUMBER>4</SEGMENT_NUMBER>
<REMARKS>rp polytechnic finance</REMARKS>
</DETAIL>
<DETAIL>
<SEGMENT_NUMBER>5</SEGMENT_NUMBER>
<REMARKS>rp polytechnic logistics</REMARKS>
</DETAIL>
</DETAILS>
<HEADER>
<STATUS_CODE>500</STATUS_CODE>
<STATUS_REMARKS>process exception</STATUS_REMARKS>
</HEADER>
<DETAILS>
<DETAIL>
<SEGMENT_NUMBER>20</SEGMENT_NUMBER>
<REMARKS> base polytechnic</REMARKS>
</DETAIL>
<DETAIL>
<SEGMENT_NUMBER>30</SEGMENT_NUMBER>
</DETAIL>
<DETAIL>
<SEGMENT_NUMBER>40</SEGMENT_NUMBER>
<REMARKS> base polytechnic finance</REMARKS>
</DETAIL>
<DETAIL>
<SEGMENT_NUMBER>50</SEGMENT_NUMBER>
<REMARKS> base polytechnic logistics</REMARKS>
</DETAIL>
</DETAILS>
</ACCOUNT_HEADER_ACK>
For the two tags HEADER and DETAILS I have the table:
create table xxrp_acct_details(
status_code number,
status_remarks varchar2(100),
segment_number number,
remarks varchar2(100)
before I've created a
create directory test_dir as 'c:\esterno'; -- where I have my acct.xml
and after, can you give me a script for loading data by using XMLTABLE?
I've tried this but it doesn't work:
DECLARE
acct_doc xmltype := xmltype( bfilename('TEST_DIR','acct.xml'), nls_charset_id('AL32UTF8') );
BEGIN
insert into xxrp_acct_details (status_code, status_remarks, segment_number, remarks)
select x1.status_code,
        x1.status_remarks,
        x2.segment_number,
        x2.remarks
from xmltable(
'/ACCOUNT_HEADER_ACK/HEADER'
passing acct_doc
columns header_no      for ordinality,
          status_code    number        path 'STATUS_CODE',
          status_remarks varchar2(100) path 'STATUS_REMARKS'
) x1,
xmltable(
'$d/ACCOUNT_HEADER_ACK/DETAILS[$hn]/DETAIL'
passing acct_doc as "d",
          x1.header_no as "hn"
columns segment_number number        path 'SEGMENT_NUMBER',
          remarks        varchar2(100) path 'REMARKS'
) x2
END;
This should allow me to get something like this:
select * from xxrp_acct_details;
Statuscode status remarks segement remarks
100 check 2 rp polytechnic
100 check 3 rp polytechnic administration
100 check 4 rp polytechnic finance
100 check 5 rp polytechnic logistics
500 process exception 20 base polytechnic
500 process exception 30
500 process exception 40 base polytechnic finance
500 process exception 50 base polytechnic logistics
but I get:
Error report:
ORA-06550: line 19, column 11:
PL/SQL: ORA-00932: inconsistent datatypes: expected - got NUMBER

06550. 00000 - "line %s, column %s:\n%s"
*Cause:    Usually a PL/SQL compilation error.
and if I try to change the script without using the column HEADER_NO to keep track of the header rank inside the document:
DECLARE
acct_doc xmltype := xmltype( bfilename('TEST_DIR','acct.xml'), nls_charset_id('AL32UTF8') );
BEGIN
insert into xxrp_acct_details (status_code, status_remarks, segment_number, remarks)
select x1.status_code,
        x1.status_remarks,
        x2.segment_number,
        x2.remarks
from xmltable(

passing acct_doc
columns status_code    number        path 'STATUS_CODE',

My oracle version is 10gR2 Express Edition
I do need a script for loading xml files into a table as soon as possible, Give me please a simple example for understanding and that works on 10gR2 Express Edition
Thanks in advance!

The reason your first SQL statement
select x1.status_code,
        x1.status_remarks,
        x2.segment_number,
        x2.remarks
from xmltable(
'/ACCOUNT_HEADER_ACK/HEADER'
passing acct_doc
columns header_no      for ordinality,
          status_code    number        path 'STATUS_CODE',
          status_remarks varchar2(100) path 'STATUS_REMARKS'
) x1,
xmltable(
'$d/ACCOUNT_HEADER_ACK/DETAILS[$hn]/DETAIL'
passing acct_doc as "d",
          x1.header_no as "hn"
columns segment_number number        path 'SEGMENT_NUMBER',
          remarks        varchar2(100) path 'REMARKS'
) x2
returns the error you noticed
PL/SQL: ORA-00932: inconsistent datatypes: expected - got NUMBER
is because Oracle is expecting XML to be passed in. At the moment I forget if it requires a certain format or not, but it is simply expecting the value to be wrapped in simple XML.
Your query actually runs as is on 11.1 as Oracle changed how that functionality worked when 11.1 was released. Your query runs slowly, but it does run.
As you are dealing with groups, is there any way the input XML can be modified to be like
<ACCOUNT_HEADER_ACK>
<ACCOUNT_GROUP>
<HEADER>....</HEADER>
<DETAILS>....</DETAILS>
</ACCOUNT_GROUP>
<ACCOUNT_GROUP>
<HEADER>....</HEADER>
<DETAILS>....</DETAILS>
</ACCOUNT_GROUP>
</ACCOUNT_HEADER_ACK>
so that it is easier to associate a HEADER/DETAILS combination? If so, it would make parsing the XML much easier.
Assuming the answer is no, here is one hack to accomplish your goal
select x1.status_code,
        x1.status_remarks,
        x3.segment_number,
        x3.remarks
from xmltable(
'/ACCOUNT_HEADER_ACK/HEADER'
passing acct_doc
columns header_no      for ordinality,
          status_code    number        path 'STATUS_CODE',
          status_remarks varchar2(100) path 'STATUS_REMARKS'
) x1,
xmltable(
'$d/ACCOUNT_HEADER_ACK/DETAILS'
passing acct_doc as "d",
columns detail_no      for ordinality,
          detail_xml     xmltype       path 'DETAIL'
) x2,
xmltable(
'DETAIL'
passing x2.detail_xml
columns segment_number number        path 'SEGMENT_NUMBER',
          remarks        varchar2(100) path 'REMARKS') x3
WHERE x1.header_no = x2.detail_no;
This follows the approach you started with. Table x1 creates a row for each HEADER node and table x2 creates a row for each DETAILS node. It assumes there is always a one and only one association between the two. I use table x3, which is joined to x2, to parse the many DETAIL nodes. The WHERE clause then joins each header row to the corresponding details row and produces the eight rows you are seeking.
There is another approach that I know of, and that would be using XQuery within the XMLTable. It should require using only one XMLTable but I would have to spend some time coming up with that solution and I can't recall whether restrictions exist in 10gR2 Express Edition compared to what can run in 10.2 Enterprise Edition for XQuery.

XML document into multiple tables

How to insert a xml document into multiple tables. Eg. Purchase Order having multiple line items. I have to insert xml document into Parent as well as child with different sets of columns.

I created the tables using the create_ch14_tables.sql. I call it using java -classpath .;C:\commerceone\xpc\lib\xmlparserv2.jar;C:\commerceone\xpc\lib\classes12.zip;C:\commerceone\xpc\lib\xsu12.jar XMLLoader -file deptempdepend.xml -connName default -transform deptempdepend.xsl. The code doesn't seem to like the "<xsl:for-each select="Department">" tags. If I remove them, the insDoc.getDocumentElement().getFirstChild() will find the element, but it still doesn't insert anything into the database.
Thank You,
Dave

Loading an XML file into the table without creating a directory .

Hi,
I wanted to load an XML file into a table column . But I should not create a directory in the server and placing the XML file there and giving the path in the insert query. Can anybody help me here?
Thanks in advance.

You could write a java stored procedure that retrieves the file into a clob. Wrap that in a function call and use it in your insert statement.
This solution require read privileges granted by sys and is therefore only feasible if the top-level directory/directories are known or you get read-access to everything.

Not a perfectly framed question. How do you want to load the XML file? Hoping you want to parse the xml file and load it into a table you can do this.
This is the xml file
karthick% cat emp_details.xml

Loading a XML-document into tables

Hi,
I have created a view for the tables below.
Table Book with columns:
- Book_ID
- Book_Name
- Ref_To_Price ( -> is a reference to Table Price (Price_ID))
Table Price with columns:
- Price_ID
- Price_DM
SQL-Syntax:
"create view Bookprice as select Book_ID, Book_Name, Ref_To_Price, Price_ID, Price_DM from Book, Price where Ref_To_Price = Price_ID; "
XML-Document:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-16"?>
<!DOCTYPE ANWENDUNGEN SYSTEM "file:/E:/book.dtd">

<ROOTDOC>
<ROW>
<BOOK_ID>66-77</BOOK_ID>

<REF_TO_PRICE>12</REF_TO_PRICE>
<PRICE_ID>12</PRICE_ID>

If I use the XML SQL Utility to insert the XML-Document, the following error message came up:
" Exception in thread "main" oracle.xml.sql.OracleXMLSQLException: java.sql.SQLException: ORA-01776: cannot modify more than one base table through a join view "
Can anyone help me, please ?

Hi,
This is a classic join view problem, where u cannot update two tables in one shot. The main problem is that ur two tables are not normalized correctly. Why can't they be in just one table?
OK, if that is not possible, then the best way out is to create a simple INSTEAD OF trigger on the view which will insert correclty,
e.g.
CREATE TRIGGER bookprice_tr INSTEAD OF INSERT ON Bookprice FOR EACH ROW
BEGIN
insert into Book values (:NEW.Book_id,
:NEW.Book_name, :NEW.Ref_to_Price);
insert into Price
values(:NEW.Price_ID, :NEW.Price_DM);
END;
Hope this helps,

Loading XML Data into Relational Table

Hello,
I receive an XML file generated from another tool (on Windows), I am trying to create a Linux shell script that will gather the needed XML file from my Linux database server, then have Oracle use this file to load the XML data into a relational table. This activity & data will be needed on an ongoing basis.
I have tried this two ways. First, I loaded the XML document into the database and tried to extract the data directly from the document, but that is not working. Now I want to try to read the data directly from the file on the server via select, however I am not getting any data returned. In the Select statement below, I am simply trying to query the data to see what is returned for my testing.
Create Table ci_results_table (transactionID Varchar2(100), //transactionID should be PrimaryKey but was getting NULL value errors during insert test, so removed PK
message Varchar2(200),
ci Varchar2(50),
processeddate xmltype,
status Varchar2(50),
sourcefile VarChar2(100));
select x.*
from XMLTable(
     'TSPLoadResults/Results'
     PASSING xmltype(bfilename('CMDB_DEVADHOCRESULTS_DIR','LoadResults-HP_146.results.xml'), nls_charset_id('AL32UTF8'))
     COLUMNS
       transactionID Varchar2(100) PATH 'TransactionID',
       Result XMLType PATH 'Result',
       Message Varchar2(200) PATH 'Message',
       PrimaryKey Varchar2(50) PATH 'PrimaryKey',
       ProcessedDate date PATH 'ProcessedDate',
       Status Varchar2(50) PATH 'Status',
       SourceFile VarChar2(100) PATH 'SourceFileName'
   ) x
Eventually I will need to build on this to limit the data returned to those records where SourceFileName is like 'HPDS%' and insert what is returned in to the ci_results_table. Attached is a sample Results XML file I am trying to load, It is named "ResultsTransformedtoUnix" because I used dos2Unix to convert it to Unix which may be right or wrong. (The output file I send out has to be transformed to DOS format before the other application can read it). Original file (before Unix conversion) named in script is also attached.
Please help. Thank you!

Hi,
I see some wrong things in your query.
1) The obvious one, explaining why you're not getting any data : there's a typo in the XQuery expression, it's "Result" not "Results"
2) ProcessedDate cannot be extracted as a date (at least not directly) since it actually represents a timestamp, use TIMESTAMP WITH TIME ZONE datatype and cast back to DATE in the SELECT clause
3) transactionID is an attribute, it must be accessed with '@' (or 'attribute::' axis)
4) If the file encoding is truly ISO-8859-1 as the prolog suggests, then do not use AL32UTF8 but the corresponding charset name : WE8ISO8859P1
Here's the working query :
select x.transactionID
     , x.Message
     , x.Primarykey
     , cast(x.ProcessedDate as date) ProcessDate
     , x.Status
     , x.SourceFile
from XMLTable(
       '/TSPLoadResults/Result'
       PASSING xmltype(bfilename('XML_DIR','LoadResults-HP_146.results.xml'), nls_charset_id('WE8ISO8859P1'))
       COLUMNS
         transactionID Varchar2(100)            PATH '@transactionID',
         Message       Varchar2(200)            PATH 'Message',
         PrimaryKey    Varchar2(50)             PATH 'PrimaryKey',
         ProcessedDate timestamp with time zone PATH 'ProcessedDate',
         Status        Varchar2(50)             PATH 'Status',
         SourceFile    VarChar2(100)            PATH 'SourceFileName'
     ) x
Using this query directly over the file will only perform decently (for large files) on 11.2.0.4 and onwards.
On prior versions, first load the file in a (temporary) XMLType column with Binary XML storage and SELECT from there.
because I used dos2Unix to convert it to Unix which may be right or wrong.
This conversion shouldn't be necessary.

I think you mean you are trying to load an XML from/using an external table.
However, external tables are typically best suited to flat file structures rather than XML nested structures.
What you require is one of the many techniques for shredding an XML document into oracle table structures.
More information on these techniques can be found in the XML DB forum, with plenty of useful links in the FAQ for that forum...

Existing XML documents into KM

Hello Everyone
Is there a way to load existing xml documents into KM and then maintain them using xml forms built using the form builder. Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Swetha

Hi Renuka
You can move the XML projects from one server to another.The Xml forms created is stored in the path 'etc\xmlforms' in KM. You can send it out and Upload to the target server instead of creating the same in the Target server from the scratch.

Loading this xml data into tables

Hello,
I am having a problem loading this XML file into tables. The xml file structure is
<FILE>
<ACCESSION>
some ids
<INSTANCE>
some data
<VARIATION
</VARIATION>
<VARIATION>
</VARIATION> variation gets repeated a number of times
<ASSEMBLY>
</ASSEMBLY>
<ASSEMBLY>
</ASSEMBLY> Assembly gets repeated a number of times.
</INSTANCE>
</ACCESSION>
</FILE>
I created a table which has the structure:
create table accession(
accession_id varchar2(20),
Instance instance_type);
create or replace type instance_type as object
(method varchar2(20),
class varchar2(20),
source varchar2(20),
num_char number(10),
variation variation_type,
assembly assembly_type)
create or replace type variation_type as object
(value varchar2(2),
count number(10),
frequency number(10),
pop_id varchar2(10)
Created a similiar type for assembly.
When I load it, I could only store the first variation data but not the subsequent ones. Similarly for assembly I could only store the first data but not the subsequent ones.
Could anyone let me know how I could store this data into tables? I have also included a sample XML file in this message.
Thank You for your help.
Rama.
Here is the sample xml file.
<?xml version="1.0" ?>
- <FILE>
- <ACCESSION>
<ACCESSION_ID>accid1</ACCESSION_ID>
- <INSTANCE>
<METHOD>method1</METHOD>
<CLASS>class1</CLASS>
<SOURCE>source1</SOURCE>
<NUM_CHAR>40</NUM_CHAR>
- <VARIATION>
<VALUE>G</VALUE>
<COUNT>5</COUNT>
<FREQUENCY>66</FREQUENCY>
<POP1>pop1</POP1>
<POP2>pop1</POP2>
</VARIATION>
<VARIATION>
<VALUE>C</VALUE>
<COUNT>2</COUNT>
<FREQUENCY>33</FREQUENCY>
<POP_ID1>pop2</POP_ID1>
</VARIATION>
- <ASSEMBLY>
<ASSEMBLY_ID>1</ASSEMBLY_ID>
<BEGIN>180</BEGIN>
<END>180</END>
<TYPE>2</TYPE>
<ORI>-</ORI>
<OFFSET>0</OFFSET>
</ASSEMBLY>
- <ASSEMBLY>
<ASSEMBLY_ID>2</ASSEMBLY_ID>
<BEGIN>235</BEGIN>
<END>235</END>
<TYPE>2</TYPE>
<ORI>-</ORI>
<OFFSET>0</OFFSET>
</ASSEMBLY>
</INSTANCE>
</ACCESSION>
</FILE>

Hello,
I could figure out how to load this XML file by using cast(multiset(
So never mind.
Thank You.

Loading XML files into Database table

Loading XML files into Database table
Hi I have some XML files say 100 files in a virtual directory created using "Create or replace directory command" and those files need to be loaded into a table having a column of XMLTYPE. 1)How to load that using Oracle provided procedures/packages

Check out the Oracle XDB Developer's Guide, Chapter 3. There is an example of using BFileName function to load the xml files from a directory object created using create or replace directory. It works really well.

Hi,
You can insert XML data from XML file to Oracle database by this script :
Hi,
For reading and inserting the data from XML file to Oracle Database :
1. CREATE A BLANK TABLE with same structure as XML file :
select * from xml_test
2. SELECT QUERY DIRECTLY ON XML FILE :
SELECT XMLTYPE(bfilename('TEST_DIR', 'data_file.xml'), nls_charset_id('UTF8')) xml_data FROM dual
3. CREATE ORACLE DIRECTORY AND PLACE XML FILE IN THIS DIRECTORY LOCATION:
--CREATE DIRECTORY TEST_DIR as '/oracle/test';
--grant all on directory TEST_DIR to public;
4. INSERT THE XML DATA IN ORACLE TABLE:
INSERT INTO xml_test(column1,coumn2)
WITH t AS (SELECT XMLTYPE(bfilename('TEST_DIR', 'attachment.xml'), nls_charset_id('UTF8')) xml_col FROM dual)
SELECT
extractValue(value(x),'/ROW/COLUMN1') column1
,extractValue(value(x),'ROW/COLUMN2') column2
FROM t,TABLE(XMLSequence(extract(t.xml_col,'/ROWSET/ROW'))) x;
I have assumed a table with 2 columns.
