As others have indicated "set server output on" is a SQL*Plus command. If you need that functionality in plsql the you're looking for is DBMS_OUTPUT.ENABLE. Your above block becomes:
declare
message varchar2(20) := 'Hello World';
begin
dbms_output.enable;
dbms_output.put_line(message);
end ;
If use SQL*plus then this code works fine.

It seems that you used SET SERVEROUTPUT ON within the PL/SQL procedure (or an anonymous block), e.g.

Perhaps you didn't post everything you really have; is that SET command part of a larger procedure? If so, move it out.
You mention that you are using toad. You have to use the lightning bolt instead of the green triangle. Hover your mouse over the two icons. You will see the green triangle says: Execute/compile statement at caret. You will see the lightning bolt says: Execute as script.

How to declare variable and use it in the same Oracle SQL script?
(11 answers)
Closed 11 months ago.
Basically, I don't want to be asked about the value like this::
SQL> select &test from dual;
Enter value for test:
I want only declare the &test along the script, something like it:
&test varchar2(100):= 'some value'; --of course, this don't work.
Execute
SQL> set define off
before running your code.
SQL> select '&test' from dual;
'&TES
-----
&test
SQL>
If you want to "declare" it, then use var:
SQL> var test varchar2(200);
SQL> exec :test := 'some value';
PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.
SQL> print test

I'm trying to execute a script on SQL PLus, it's simple.
SET serveroutput ON;
DECLARE
mode NUMBER(1) := 1;
IF (mode = 1) THEN
prompt 'HERE'
END IF;
prompt 'fim'
I call the script from SQLPlus using sqlplus user/pw#db and #myscript.sql after a successful connection. But the output is strange for me:
Conectado a:
Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.2.0.1.0 - Production
With the Partitioning, OLAP and Data Mining options
SQL> #myscript.sql
9
10
11
And it continues to print this sequence indefinitely.
What am I doing wrong?
From your edited question... you have to terminate the PL/SQL block with a / on a new line to make it end and run, otherwise SQL*Plus will keep prompting for more lines of code (which is the numbers you're seeing). The documentation shows how to run PL/SQL blocks. And prompt is a SQL*Plus command so you can't use it inside a PL/SQL block. You also don't have your block syntax right:
SET serveroutput ON;
DECLARE
mode NUMBER(1) := 1;
BEGIN
IF mode = 1 THEN
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('HERE');
END IF;
END;
/
prompt fim
You cannot use sqlplus command in plsql.We can use dbms_output instead which will display the output in SQL prompt
SET serveroutput ON;
DECLARE
mode NUMBER(1) := 1;
BEGIN
IF (mode = 1) THEN
dbms_output.put_line('HERE');
END IF;
dbms_output.put_line('fim');
END;

Go to your oracle home Oracle\product\<version>\client_2\sqlplus\admin\glogin.sql and add the following lines to enable printing globally,
SET ECHO ON;
SET TERM ON;
WHENEVER SQLERROR EXIT FAILURE ROLLBACK;
SET DEFINE OFF;
I need to execute the multiple script having one master sql file. Whenever I used to execute the master calling script named as calling_test.sql if anything error comes need to be rollbacked.
sqlplus USERNAME/PWD#SIR_NAME;
##calling_test.sql
here is content of calling_test.sql script.
SET echo ON;
SET define ON;
SET scan ON;
define PATH =/krishna/test
define AB_SCHEMA=AIM
spool Test_incremental.log
SET define ON;
##&&PATH/AUG/2019-08-28/test1.sql
SET define ON;
##&&PATH/AUG/2019-08-29/test2.sql
SET define ON;
##&&PATH /AUG/2019-08-30/test3.sql
SET define ON;
The scrip should contain something like this:
whenever sqlerror exit rollback
Example:
SQL> create table test (col number);
Table created.
SQL>
SQL script (named p.sql)
whenever sqlerror exit rollback
insert into test values (100);
insert into test values ('A');

You can rollback the actions from called scripts, but in addition to WHENEVER command you must also SET AUTOCOMMIT OFF. Normally when Sqlplus exits a script invoked in a separate file it commits. However the preceding overrides that action. See below: (save each script to the indicated file.)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- script mst_0.sql
create table multi_script_test( id integer, description varchar2(50));
insert into multi_script_test values( 0, 'Initial before script.');
commit;
-- script mst_1.sql
insert into multi_script_test values( 1, 'Insert from script mst_1');
-- script mst_2.sql
insert into multi_script_test values ( 2, 'Insert from script mst_2');
-- script mst_3.sql
insert into multi_script_test values ( 3/0, 'oops');
-- script mst_4.sql
insert into multi_script_test values ( 4, 'Insert from script mst_4');
-- main script mst_main.sql
set echo on
set autocommit off
whenever sqlerror continue rollback
##c:/so/ora/mst_0.sql
##c:/so/ora/mst_1.sql
##c:/so/ora/mst_2.sql
-- following should display rows 0, 1, 2
select * from multi_script_test;
-- generate error and due to whenever directive 'rollback' discard rows 1,2
#c:/so/ora/mst_3.sql
-- continue script processing, also due to whenever directive 'contunue'
#c:/so/ora/mst_4.sql
commit;

select * from multi_script_test;

I have fairly simply code ..running in Oracle Virtualbox. However for some reason it is not displaying pl/sql output.
Here is code snippet
SQL> set serveroutput on
SQL> list
1 Create or Replace procedure mytz
2 IS
3 v_mytz TIMESTAMP WITH TIME ZONE DEFAULT '2013-05-05 12:00:00 AM';
4 BEGIN
5 DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE ('Default timestamp is ' );
6* end mytz ;
SQL> /
Procedure created.
SQL>
Is there anything I need to do special to see the output on SQL prompt ?
You have to actually run the procedure, not just create it, e.g.:
set serverputput on
exec mytz;
The set serveroutput SQL*Plus command has to be in the session the procedure is executed, not the one where it is created (if they are different).
You are not showing the value of your variable at the moment; maybe you wanted this?
dbms_output.put_line('Default timestamp is: ' || v_mytz);
Is there a way that you can have SERVEROUTPUT set to ON in sqlplus but somehow repress the message "PL/SQL procedure successfully completed" that is automatically generated upon completed execution of a plsql procedure?
Use the command:
SET FEEDBACK OFF
before running the procedure. And afterwards you can turn it back on again:
SET FEEDBACK ON
This has worked well for me in sqlplus, but I did just notice that "set feedback off" suppresses errors in Sql Developer (at least version 17.2.0.188). Just something to be aware of if you use Sql Developer:
create or replace procedure test_throw_an_error as buzz number; begin dbms_output.put_line('In test_throw_an_error. Now, to infinity!'); buzz:=1/0; end;
/
set serveroutput on
set feedback off
exec test_throw_an_error;
exec dbms_output.put_line('Done, with feedback off');
set feedback on
exec test_throw_an_error;
exec dbms_output.put_line('Done, with feedback on');
Result:
Procedure TEST_THROW_AN_ERROR compiled
In test_throw_an_error. Now, to infinity!
Done, with feedback off
In test_throw_an_error. Now, to infinity!
Error starting at line : 11 in command -
