Creating SQL-Loader script for more than one table at a time

Hi,
I am using OMWB 2.0.2.0.0 with Oracle 8.1.7 and Sybase 11.9.
It looks like I can create SQL-Loader scripts for all the tables
or for one table at a time. If I want to create SQL-Loader
scripts for 5-6 tables, I have to either create script for all
the tables and then delete the unwanted tables or create the
scripts for one table at a time and then merge them.
Is there a simple way to create migration scripts for more than
one but not all tables at a time?
Thanks,
Prashant Rane

No there is no multi-select for creating SQL-Loader scripts.
You can either create them separately or create them all and
then discard the one you do not need.

How to Eliminate Special Character in SQL LOADER Script

How to eliminate special character from SQL LOADER script file which suppose not to insert in TABLE
example.CSV lile like this
<ABC/ , 7747>
<DEF/ , 7763>
<NEW/ , 7779>
<OLD/, 7795>
I have to remove < > and / character at the time of loading into table. How It could be done. It is not possible to remove < , > , / character manually from CSV file

On Unix/Linux that's very easy, on Windows... I don't know...
$ cat myfile.csv
<ABC/ , 7747>

ORA-00936 error from SQL expression in SQL*Loader script

I am getting the above error on the following line in my SQL*Loader script:
DIA_CLM_RES_OID DECIMAL EXTERNAL
"SELECT N_ORG_ENTY_ID FROM TESTG4.ORG_ENTITY
WHERE N_USER_ID =
(SELECT UNIQUE WSR_NT_ID FROM CONV_CLM_RESOURCE
WHERE CLM_RES_OID = :DIA_CLM_RES_OID)",
What I am basically trying to do is a 2-table lookup of a value:
1. Find a row in table CONV_CLM_RESOURCE where the value in column CLM_RES_OID matches the value in the input file in field DIA_CLM_RES_OID.
2. Take the value of field WSR_NT_ID from that row and use it to find a row in table TESTG4.ORG_ENTITY.
3. Take the value of field WSR_NT_ID from that row and set it in the target table in field DIA_CLM_RES_OID.
In other words, I am essentially trying to translate the input value by using two other tables to lookup the value to translate to. However, no matter how I arrange it, I keep getting the "ORA-00936: missing expression" error on this statement.
Can anyone see what I am doing wrong, or perhaps suggest a better way of accomplishing a two-table translation of a value?
Thanks!

Still not sure why this doesn't work, but I was able to create and use a function to do this instead, which is probably a better approach anyway.

Using SQL Loader script in a Stored Procedure

Can I use SQL Loader script in a stored procedure and then execute it from a front-end appl.? The reason for this seemingly convoluted solution is that the users don't want a batch load though the records volume is quite high (around 1 mil). Other loads using ODBC connection or OLE DB seem to be inferior to SQL Loader.

I would suggest a couple of solutions:
1. Have a cgi script that can upload the file to the server from a web ui, then have the cgi script call the sql*loader file, and it will insert into the database.
2. You can try to use External tables. This is avaliable in 9i and onwards. You will be able to make any sql DML on the external table.
I would normally use sql*loader, move the data to a staging table with nologging, and paralle loading. After it has been loaded into the staging table I would process it into my main tables. Have used this approach with up to 60 million records in one load.
You can do calls to C procedures, Pro*C procedures through PLSQL, as well as java calls, or use Java stored procedures.
My experience is that SQL*Loader is the fastest way to load data into the database.

Sql loader script

hi all i require a sql loader script
i have some files that i will have to load to oracle database 11g... i dont know the number of files that will fall on the directory daily
how do i do this. ?
my requirement is in_file parameter in the control file should be dynamically populated with the file names and all the files should be processed ... the structure and columns in all the files are same.
plz let me know if you have code for this.

Raj,
Here is you can use to generate sqlldr control and you can include this in simple sql script or call it from unix script or batch script. Run this sql from IDE or sqlplus and pass "table name " generate sqlldr control file

Want To Capture The File name Using the SQL Loader

Hi,
I Am loading The Data To Staging Table Using The SQL*developer, The File That need to be Loaded Will be One Of The Input To the SQL*Loader Concurrent Program.
In One Of The Column Of My staging Table I want To Put The File name.
Can We do the Same.
thanks,
Ankit

Not unless you generate the loader controlfile dynamically.. try this.. pass file name as $1 first parameter. Use the below example and modify as per your requirement
1) create table with following table structure
create table temp_table (x varchar2(20),file_name varchar2(30));
2) create data file - test.dat (contains only values for x)
abc
def
geh
ggg
fff
3) create a host file host file - test.sh with following content:
echo "load data
infile $1
append
into table temp_table
fields terminated by ','
(x,
file_name constant "$1")" > test.ctl
sqlldr <usr>/<pwd>control=test.ctl
4) run the host file from unix prompt with data file name as parameter (ensure test.sh has execute permissions)
test.sh test.dat
Hope this helps

SQL*LOADER script with ORA-03135: connection lost contact error

Hello,
I got a really strange problem with a script that transfer data from a database to an other. Each day we recieve the raw data in zipped txt files, then we feed it to the database with SQL Loader. This worked fine until two weeks ago. At first, I thought the error must have been in the script, but it didn't change at all since 3 months. And the weirdest thing is that sometime it works without any problems, but now I get almost anytime the "ORA-03135: connection lost contact" and it seems to happen randomly. It never fails at the same place , thought the data I feed the script is always the same.
I'm new to SQL*Loader and since the script seems to send all the data, I don't understand where that error come from. Can I do something on my workstation or the problem is on the database server ?
I think the problem would be that the connection get a timeout out on the server, but we never got that problem on the production server and it has a lot more data to transfer then my little test script.
Have you any idea on whjat the problem could be ?

03135, 00000, "connection lost contact"
// *Cause: 1) Server unexpectedly terminated or was forced to terminate.
// 2) Server timed out the connection.
// *Action: 1) Check if the server session was terminated.
// 2) Check if the timeout parameters are set properly in sqlnet.ora.I would suspect networking issues external to sqlldr & Oracle

Askings are :
1. Please check the control file text.
2. then Please say how do I run this control file. Please write the code to run in the sql prompt.
Please treat this at an urgent basis.
FARHAD

The cmd is: sqlldr aa/bb@cc control=c:\txt_to_DB_EDI.ctl, before that you need to make sure sqlldr is available.
you may run it on server command line, sure you in your user's profile set the $SQLLDRCMD to the sqlldr executable.

How to refer the SQL*Loader command line parameters in the control file

The problem I am trying to resolve is to insert the input file name when SQL*Loader is loading the record from the file. I have multiple files to load and it is nice to associate a record with a particular input file.

Create the control file dynamically (and fill one of the columns with the file name as a constant) before you start SQL*Loader
Another option is to use external tables

Issues with the SQL wrapper scripts created with the DB adapter

Hi All,
We have the wrapper sql scripts created with the DB adapter configurations which are being used to invoke the stored procedures.
To give you a background on the wrapper sql scripts-The Adapter Configuration wizard generates a wrapper API when a PL/SQL API has arguments of data types, such as PL/SQL Boolean, PL/SQL Table, or PL/SQL Record.
These two SQL files are saved in the same directory where the WSDL and XSD files are stored, and are available in the Project view.
The issue we are facing now is that whenever the associated package or the procedure structure undergoes a change we see an error as given below:
An unhandled exception has been thrown in the ESB system. The exception reported is: "org.collaxa.thirdparty.apache.wsif.WSIFException: esb:///ESB_Projects/Application1_ABC_ESB/DBADP_Update_Out.wsdl [ DBADP_Update_Out_ptt::DBADP_Update_Out(InputParameters,OutputParameters) ] - WSIF JCA Execute of operation 'DBADP_Update_Out' failed due to: Error while trying to prepare and execute an API. An error occurred while preparing and executing the APPS.XXIRIS_SOA_R_WRAPPER.XXIRIS_AR_CUST_K$ API. Cause: java.sql.SQLException: ORA-04068: existing state of packages has been discarded ORA-04061: existing state of package body "APPS.XXIRIS_AR_CUST_K" has been invalidated ORA-04065: not executed, altered or dropped package body "APPS.XXIRIS_AR_CUST_K" ORA-06508: PL/SQL: could not find program unit being called: "APPS.XXIRIS_AR_CUST_K" ORA-06512: at "APPS.XXIRIS_SOA_R_WRAPPER", line 1 ORA-06512: at line 1 [Caused by: ORA-04068: existing state of packages has been discarded ORA-04061: existing state of package body
In such cases we need to either execute the wrapper scripts again or refresh the connection pool in case the wrapper sql scripts for that procedure are not available.
In some cases we see that the first instance errors out.However the second request and the subsequent requests after that goes through successfully.
Please do let me know if anyone has faced such issues before.
Any inputs in this regard would be of great help.
Thanks in advance!
Deepthi

I stumbled on a link in the oracle forum which says that the "create or replace package XXX" at the start of the PL/SQL procedure when run seems to intermittently cause the ORA-04068: existing state of packages has been discarded problem.
As per the solution suggested an “alter package XXX compile" can be executed after the changes are made and then we would no longer get the error in BPEL/ESB and dont have to bounce the server too.
__http://forums.oracle.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=185762_
However the above solution does not seem to resolve the issue.
Any help in this regard would be highly appreciated.
Thanks,
Deepthi
