Uploading data to oracle database when a new CSV file arrives to a folder

Hi,
I am a student trying to learn oracle and right not working on an academic project. My problem scenario is as follows.
I have a folder in my system.Whenever a new CSV file is pasted to that folder.The contents should be loaded to database using SQLLoader.The problem I am facing is.
1) How to schedule this as to what should I write in batch file(for arrival of new file).
2) How to tell SQL Loader to take contents from the new SQL file everytime an upload is scheduled by the batch file.
I will be glad for any guidance on this.Thanks :)

you have to do below steps:
1. create a sqlloader control file according to your input data file
2. write a shell script which will check is any new file came in the fiolder. If it came then load the file using above controlfile. once load is complete move file in some other folder.
3. schedule the shell script using crontab to run every 10 second or so.
Note: This is just one of the way. there can be many methods to solve above problem including using oracle schduler.

Problems with special characters uploading data into oracle database

Greetings
I have a problem uploading data into oracle tables from sybase datasource. The data that I want to upload is in Spanish, for example when I have a varchar field with the data 'Consultoría', in oracle table the data upload with interrogation symbols.
I have my source and target datastores configured as follows.
Any suggestion? Thank you for your time

Chack section 10 Locales and Multi-byte Functionality in the SAP Data Services Reference Guide for an exhaustive description of NLS settings.
As a summary, following settings are required:
locales in the datastore definitions match the actual locale used in the associated databases
the locale of the DS engine allows for source to target translation
the character set in the target database supports storage of accented characters

Hi,
There are various differences between the two.
1. SQL Server is only Windows, but Oracle runs on almost all Platforms.
2. You can have multiple databases in SQL Server, but Oracle provides you only one database per instance.Given that the very term 'database' has s different meaning in the two products, this "difference" is absolutely meaningless.
3. SQL Server provides T-SQL for writing programs, whereas Oracle provides PL/SQLWhich means what? Both products have a procedural programming language. They named them differently, and the languages are not interchangeable. Means nothing in comparing the features/strengths/weaknesses/suitability to purpose.
4. Backup types in both are the same. (Except Oracle provides an additional backup called Logical Backup.)You make that sound like "Logical Backup" is something more than it is. It is nothing more than an export of the data and metadata. Many experts don't even consider it a backup. I'm sure SQL Server provides the same functionality though they probably call it by some other name.
5. Both provide High Availability.Well, I guess they both have a suite of features they refer to as "High Availability". But what does that really mean? The devil is in the details. Remember, the two products don't even agree on what constitutes a "database".
6. Both come in various distributions.???

If you are going for an Implementation, you can try SQL Server Express Edition and Oracle XE which are free to use.
Then you can choose whichever is comfortable for your needs.
Thanks.

hi,
this is the code :

ResultSet rs;
private List perInfoAll = new ArrayList();
public List getperInfoAll() {
int i = 0;
try
con = DriverManager.getConnection("url","root","root");
ps = con.createStatement();
rs = ps.executeQuery("select * from user");
while(rs.next()){
System.out.println(rs.getString(1));
perInfoAll.add(i,new perInfo(rs.getString(1),rs.getString(2),rs.getString(3)));
i++;
catch (Exception e)
System.out.println("Error Data : " + e.getMessage());
return perInfoAll;
public class perInfo {
String uname;
String firstName;
String lastName;
public perInfo(String firstName,String lastName,String uname) {
this.uname = uname;
this.firstName = firstName;
this.lastName = lastName;
public String getUname() {

ADF table code:
<af:table value="#{tableBean.perInfoAll}" var="row"
binding="#{backing_Display.table1}" id="table1">
<af:column sortable="false" headerText=""
align="start">
<af:outputText value="#{row.firstName"/>//---> Jdeveloper 11g doesn't allow me to use this.. it says firstName is an unknown property..
</af:column>
</af:table>
Please tell me is this the way to do it.. or is it a must to use the DataCollection from the data controls panel...

I am struggling on the problem of echoing data from Oracle database (9i) to the screen for viewing. For ex. the data has records from various cities. when a particular city is inputted as prompt, all the records for the that city from the table should appear through PHP. Can someone help me?

How to I convert data from oracle database into excel sheet

how to I convert data from oracle database into excel sheet.
I need to import columns and there datas from oracle database to microsoft excel sheet.
Please let me know the different ways for doing this.
Thanks.

asktom.oracle.com has an excellent article on writing a PL/SQL procedure that dumps data to an Excel spreadsheet-- search for 'Excel' and it'll come up.
You can also use your favorite connection protocol (ODBC, OLE DB, etc) to connect from Excel to Oracle and pull the data out that way.

Regarding loading of excel data into oracle database

hello,
Can someone help me in knowing that how can we load excel sheets data into oracle database.
I will be really thankful to you.
Gursimran

Hi,
There is tool given by oracle "Oracle Bulk Loader "
you can use this.
But in order use this you need a control file, which specifies how data should be loaded into the database; and a data file, which specifies what data should be loaded.
Example :- this is the control file which has information how the data is processed.
LOAD DATA
INFILE test.dat
INTO TABLE test
FIELDS TERMINATED BY '|'
(i, s)
Example :- test.dat which is the data file or say your excel sheet or document
(1, 'foo')
(2, 'bar')
(3, ' baz')
example of Loading :-
sqlldr <yourName> control=<ctlFile> log=<logFile> bad=<badFile>
sqlldr testing control=test.ctl log=test.log
Thanks

Muhammad AliOkay I've haven't done 1z0-045 ... but I at one point I was considering 1z0-050 so I'm willing to share my views on an upgrade exam and exams in general.
Remember Oracle are trying to ensure that a DBA who was tested at 8i DBA OCP has nw
It depends on your definition of read the topics. If you mean literally just read the topics then that will result in a failure. If you mean study research practice and fully understand the topics that should lead to a pass.
Bear in mind that Oracle would expect a competent 8i DBA attending the 5 day training course Oracle Database 10g: New Features for Oracle8i DBAs [http://education.oracle.com/web_prod-plq-dad/plsql/show_desc.redirect?dc=D17389GC10&p_org_id=&lang=&source_call=] to be able pass the exam with perhaps 2 to 4 weeks further study, revision and practice.
Interestingly this particular exam has a relatively high pass mark (73%) ... one implication of that is that it is prudent to be comfortable with all topics.
Generally an upgrade exam will cover topics beyond that of the straight OCA/OCP exams. The questions will obviously be at OCP level.
It is possilble the Sybex book Oracle 10g New Features for Administrators Study Guide (Certification Study Guide) ISBN-13: 978-0782143553 which although for 1z0-040 may have some relevance for some of your topics. If you choose to purchase it that is your choice. (It seems to have good amazon reviews ... though all of these books can contain errors, it may or may not be updated for 10gR2, and some Sybex Oracle books are sometimes OTT in some areas IMHO, but that wouldn't stop me using one).

To fetch data from Oracle Database

Hi Gents,
Any alternative option other than SQL to fetch data from Oracle DAtabase. ( My manager worked on Mainframes he is telling other than SQL there should be some options.. Gents pls guide if any options.......

There is no other (supported) way to get data from Oracle Databases as SQL. No matter what third-party tool you use to access Oracle Databases, they all will use (embedded) SQL.
In very rare cases, one must use tools to read from datafiles directly because the database got damaged and a proper recovery is impossible. That is an emergency solution and by no means a replacement for SQL access.
In short: No :-)

FETCH DATA FROM ORACLE DATABASE USING Web Dynpro

I want to fetch data from ORACLE database using Web Dynpro.How can I do this?

1) Are you sure that you get no results? It sounds like you are having name resolution issues, which would imply that you should be getting an ORA-00942 error indicating that the table doesn't exist (or that you don't have access to the table). If you are not seeing this error, I would tend to suspect an overzealous exception handler.
2) What database account owns the table? What database account is your ASP.Net application using to connect? Assuming these two accounts are different, your application would either have to
- Explicitly prefix the table name with the schema name
- Have a public or private synonym that maps the table name to the fully qualified identifier schema_name.table_name
- Issue the command ALTER SESSION SET CURRENT_SCHEMA = <<schema name>> in each session, in which case all queries in the session would use the specified schema name as the default if no schema name is prefixed.

How to load text file data to Oracle Database table?

By using Oracle Forms, how to load text file data to Oracle Database table?

Metalink note 33247.1 explains how to use text_io as suggested by Robin to read the file into a Multi-Row block. However, that article was written for forms 4.5 and uses CREATE_RECORD in a loop. There was another article, 91513.1 describing the more elegant method of 'querying' the file into the block by transactional triggers. Unfortunately this more recent article has disappeared without trace and Oracle deny its existence. I know it existed as I have a printed copy in front of me, and very useful it is too.
