I have a .bat file which looks like this:
start C:\sqlcl-latest\sqlcl\bin\sql javi/pwd#tnsname #"mypath1"
The script it calls looks like this:
select 1 from dual;
select 2 from dual;
exit;
Is there any way to log everything in the cmd and the sqlcl console into a file instead/in addition to being printed in stdout?
I have tried the below, but it creates an empty log file:
start C:\sqlcl-latest\sqlcl\bin\sql javi/pwd#tnsname #"mypath1" > mylog.txt
I don't have SQLCL, but this (redirection to file) should (at least, I hope so) work at operating system command prompt.
myfile1.sql:
select * from dept;
myfile2.sql:
select empno, ename, job, sal
from emp
where deptno = 10;
mypath1.sql:
#"myfile1"
#"myfile2"
exit;
mybat.bat:
sqlplus scott/tiger#orcl#mypath1.sql > mylog.txt
-----------
this redirects output into mylog.txt file
Running the mybat.bat at the command prompt:
C:\>mybat
C:\>sqlplus scott/tiger#orcl#mypath1.sql 1>mylog.txt
There's no output to screen; everything is contained in mylog.txt file so - let's check it:
C:\>type mylog.txt

Can someone help me on this I had searched for the answer and did all possible way but not getting the solution.
You're almost there - here's a top to bottom run of the code, the only change being I've created a schema to hold the table and the path names for the CSV file. So follow the demo below and if yours does not get the same result, edit the question with the full output similar to below. Also, if you still get issues, try it without DIRECT/PARALLEL which will help us dig deeper into the "why".

I regularly need to run a single query on some table in one of my DBs and I would rather not have to create a file and call it as a script and everything if I don't have to.
I would like to be able to send the query directly to sqlplus as a string like this perhaps
sqlplus user/pass#hostname:port/service "select * from table"
instead of having to create a file that holds only that one query and call it with
sqlplus user/pass#hostname:port/service #filename
does anyone know if this is possible?
In addition to mathguy answer, with linux shells,
you can use the operator here-string like this:
sqlplus user/pass#hostname:port/service <<< 'select * from table;'
Don't forget the semi-colon at the end of your query.
I believe the sqlplus command doesn't accept a SQL statement (as a string) as a command-line parameter. You can run sqlplus either interactively or in batch (giving a .sql file as input).
However, you can do something like what you are asking, using operating system facilities. I don't know how this might work in Windows, but in Unix/Linux you can use a here document. Something like this: (I masked my password and my machine name for privacy, but otherwise it's a screenshot showing the command and its output)
[oracle#******** ~]$ sqlplus mathguy/********#orclpdb <<EOF
> select empno, ename, sal
> from scott.emp

I don't know whether space you have in front of the directory name in the first statement you posted makes difference (or is it just a typo), but - nonetheless, here's how it is usually done.
Create directory on hard disk:
C:\>mkdir c:\dir
Connect to the database as SYS (as it owns the database, as well as directories); create directory (Oracle object) and grant privileges to user which will use that directory:
C:\>sqlplus sys as sysdba

Works properly (congratulations, you wrote code that actually works!).
So, what have you done wrong?
as I said, space in front of c:\dir: CREATE OR REPLACE DIRECTORY MYDIR AS ' C:\dir';
database isn't on your computer but on a separate database server
it means that you probably created directory, but it points to c:\dir directory on the database server, not your own PC!
As Boneist commented, it is possible to create a directory (Oracle object) on computer which is NOT a database server, but that's not something we usually do. If you opt to choose this option, you'll have to use UNC (Universal Naming Convention) while creating directory.
Another option you might want to consider is to use SQL Loader. It is an operating system utility, installed along with the database or (full, not instant) client software. Its advantage is that it runs on your local PC (i.e. you don't have to have access to the database server) and is extremely fast. You'd create a control file which tells Oracle how to load data stored in the source (.txt) file.
Another option, which - in the background - uses SQL Loader, is to use an external table. It is yet another Oracle object which points to the source (.txt) file and allows you to access it using a simple SQL SELECT statement. Possible drawback: it still requires access to the Oracle directory (just like your UTL_FILE option).
Can someone please help me here?
Looks like I setup the right values in the set variables, but it's returning lot of things. See below:
################################
# Main
################################
RETVAL=`sqlplus user/pass#DB <<EOF
SET PAGESIZE 0 FEEDBACK OFF VERIFY OFF HEADING OFF ECHO OFF
SELECT process_id, source, destination, type FROM table WHERE process_id IN ('12311','12322');
EXIT;
EOF`
if [ -z "$RETVAL" ]; then
echo "No rows returned from database"
exit 0
else
echo $RETVAL
fi

If I use this command, it throws the following error.
SQL> ALTER DATABASE OPEN;
ALTER DATABASE OPEN
*
*ERROR at line 1:*
ORA-16014: log 2 sequence# 679 not archived, no available destinations
ORA-00312: online log 2 thread 1:
'D:\ORACLEEXE\APP\ORACLE\FLASH_RECOVERY_AREA\XE\ONLINELOG\O1_MF_2_4JD5RZC0_.LOG'
How can I fix this situation?
There are zero files in the
"D:\ORACLEEXE\APP\ORACLE\FLASH_RECOVERY_AREA\XE\ONLINELOG\" folder.
I'm pretty sure this belongs on SERVERFAULT, but to get you going for now:
It appears the database is in ARCHIVELOG mode and you have not supplied a location to store the archived log files. A quick fix, assuming you don't need the recovery protection that archive logging gives you is to try this:
sqlplus / as sysdba
SQL> shutdown immediate;
SQL> startup mount;
SQL> ALTER DATABASE NOARCHIVELOG;
SQL> ALTER DATABASE OPEN;
If you do want to keep your archived redo logs, then you'll need entries like this in your database parameters:
alter system set log_archive_dest_1='location=d:\oraclexe\app\oracle\...';
alter system set log_archive_dest_state_1=enable;
Sounds like in your cleanup process you may have deleted the .LOG files. I assume you've emptied the trash and can't restore them?
