i have multiple folders on my disk and each folder has pdf files (4 files in each folder). How can i insert files in each folder in oracle table rows. the folder name will make primary key (being unique social svc #). i have used code as is from this link but i get following error:-
ora-22285 non-existent directory or file for fileopen operation
ora-06512 at sys.dbns_lob line 805
i ve also granted all permissions on the directory to my user with command:-
grant all on directory blob_dir to testuser
pl tell me what am i doing wrong.
if you going to use BLOB data type then you can upload data from external file using SQL*Loader. In case you are going to use BFILE then you just need to copy files into Oracle Server file system and grant access to it via DIRECTORY object with READ privelege. BFILE provides read only access to external files via SQL.
I am trying to do a bulk insert into tables from a CSV file using Oracle11. My problem is that the database is on a remote machine which I can sqlpl to using this:
sqlpl username#oracle.machineName
Unfortunately the sqlldr has trouble connecting using the following command:
sqlldr userid=userName/PW#machinename control=BULK_LOAD_CSV_DATA.ctl log=sqlldr.log
Error is:
Message 2100 not found; No message file for product=RDBMS, facility=ULMessage 2100 not found; No message file for product=RDBMS, facility=UL
Now having given up on this approach I tried writing a basic sql script, but I am unsure of the proper Oracle keyword for BULK. I know this works in MySql but I get:
unknown command beginning "BULK INSER..."
When running the script:
BULK INSERT <TABLE_NAME>
FROM 'CSVFILE.csv'
WITH
(
FIELDTERMINATOR = ',',
ROWTERMINATOR = '\n'
)
GO
I don't care which one works! Either one will do, I just need a little help.
Sorry I am a dumb dumb! I forgot to add oracle/bin to my path!
If you have found this post, add the bin directory to your path (linux) using the following commands:
export ORACLE_HOME=/path/to/oracle/client
export PATH=$PATH:$ORACLE_HOME/bin
Sorry if I wasted anyone's time ....
I ran the below create script and it created the table:-
Create writable external table FLTR (like dbname.FLTR)
LOCATION ('gpfdist://172.90.38.190:8081/fltr.out')
FORMAT 'CSV' (DELIMITER ',' NULL '')
DISTRIBUTED BY (fltr_key);
But when I tried inserting into the file like insert into fltr.out select * from dbname.fltr
I got the below error, cannot find server connection.
Please help me out
I think your gpfdist is probably not running try:
gpfdist -p 8081 -l ~/gpfdist.log -d ~/ &
on 172.90.38.190.
This will start gpfidist using your home directory as the data directory.
When I do that my inserts work and create a file ~/fltr.out
We're migrating database from Oracle to Teradata.
We have .sql files with valid trigger DDL and .bteq files with .compile commands for these triggers. But when we run these .bteq files we get errors and trigger is not loaded.
For example, file td_instrg1.sql contains trigger definition:
CREATE TRIGGER TD_INSTRG1
AFTER INSERT
ON TD_EMPLOYEES
REFERENCING NEW AS X1
FOR EACH ROW
WHEN(X1.id is not null)
BEGIN ATOMIC
(INSERT INTO TD_EMPLOYEES1 VALUES(X1.id, X1.name, X1.monthly_income);)
END;
and file td_instrg1.bteq contains the following commands:
.logon vmdbsrv016/dbc, dbc;
DATABASE twm;
.compile FILE=td_instrg1.sql;
.logoff;
Please advise how to load triggers from scripts using bteq utility.
The .COMPILE command in BTEQ is reserved for the compilation of Teradata stored procedures. Your DDL statements for the triggers can be executed directly. If you have separate files containing the DDL you can reference them from within BTEQ using the .RUN command:
.logon vmdbsrv016/dbc, {password};
DATABASE twm;
.RUN FILE=td_instrg1.sql;
.logoff;
I have an Oracle database backup file (.dmp) that was created with expdp.
The .dmp file was an export of an entire database.
I need to restore 1 of the schemas from within this dump file.
I don't know the names of the schemas inside this dump file.
To use impdp to import the data I need the name of the schema to load.
So, I need to inspect the .dmp file and list all of the schemas in it, how do I do that?
Update (2008-09-18 13:02) - More detailed information:
The impdp command i'm current using is:
impdp user/password#database directory=DPUMP_DIR
dumpfile=EXPORT.DMP logfile=IMPORT.LOG
And the DPUMP_DIR is correctly configured.
SQL> SELECT directory_path
2 FROM dba_directories
3 WHERE directory_name = 'DPUMP_DIR';
DIRECTORY_PATH
-------------------------
D:\directory_path\dpump_dir\
And yes, the EXPORT.DMP file is in fact in that folder.
The error message I get when I run the impdp command is:
Connected to: Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition ...
ORA-31655: no data or metadata objects selected for the job
ORA-39154: Objects from foreign schemas have been removed from import
This error message is mostly expected. I need the impdp command be:
impdp user/password#database directory=DPUMP_DIR dumpfile=EXPORT.DMP
SCHEMAS=SOURCE_SCHEMA REMAP_SCHEMA=SOURCE_SCHEMA:MY_SCHEMA
But to do that, I need the source schema.
impdp exports the DDL of a dmp backup to a file if you use the SQLFILE parameter. For example, put this into a text file
impdp '/ as sysdba' dumpfile=<your .dmp file> logfile=import_log.txt sqlfile=ddl_dump.txt
Then check ddl_dump.txt for the tablespaces, users, and schemas in the backup.
According to the documentation, this does not actually modify the database:
The SQL is not actually executed, and the target system remains unchanged.
If you open the DMP file with an editor that can handle big files, you might be able to locate the areas where the schema names are mentioned. Just be sure not to change anything. It would be better if you opened a copy of the original dump.
Update (2008-09-19 10:05) - Solution:
My Solution: Social engineering, I dug real hard and found someone who knew the schema name.
Technical Solution: Searching the .dmp file did yield the schema name.
Once I knew the schema name, I searched the dump file and learned where to find it.
Places the Schemas name were seen, in the .dmp file:
<OWNER_NAME>SOURCE_SCHEMA</OWNER_NAME>
This was seen before each table name/definition.
SCHEMA_LIST 'SOURCE_SCHEMA'
This was seen near the end of the .dmp.
Interestingly enough, around the SCHEMA_LIST 'SOURCE_SCHEMA' section, it also had the command line used to create the dump, directories used, par files used, windows version it was run on, and export session settings (language, date formats).
So, problem solved :)
Assuming that you do not have the log file from the expdp job that generated the file in the first place, the easiest option would probably be to use the SQLFILE parameter to have impdp generate a file of DDL (based on a full import). Then you can grab the schema names from that file. Not ideal, of course, since impdp has to read the entire dump file to extract the DDL and then again to get to the schema you're interested in, and you have to do a bit of text file searching for the various CREATE USER statements, but it should be doable.
The running the impdp command to produce an sqlfile, you will need to run it as a user which has the DATAPUMP_IMP_FULL_DATABASE role.
Or... run it as a low privileged user and use the MASTER_ONLY=YES option, then inspect the master table. e.g.
select value_t
from SYS_IMPORT_TABLE_01
where name = 'CLIENT_COMMAND'
and process_order = -59;
col object_name for a30
col processing_status head STATUS for a6
col processing_state head STATE for a5
select distinct
object_schema,
object_name,
object_type,
object_tablespace,
process_order,
duplicate,
processing_status,
processing_state
from sys_import_table_01
where process_order > 0
and object_name is not null
order by object_schema, object_name

Step 1: Here is one simple example. You have to create a SQL file from the dump file using SQLFILE option.
Step 2: Grep for CREATE USER in the generated SQL file (here tables.sql)
Example here:
$ impdp directory=exp_dir dumpfile=exp_user1_all_tab.dmp logfile=imp_exp_user1_tab sqlfile=tables.sql

You need to search for OWNER_NAME.
cat -v dumpfile.dmp | grep -o '<OWNER_NAME>.*</OWNER_NAME>' | uniq -u
cat -v turn the dumpfile into visible text.
grep -o shows only the match so we don't see really long lines
uniq -u removes duplicate lines so you see less output.
This works pretty well, even on large dump files, and could be tweaked for usage in a script.
My solution (similar to KyleLanser's answer) (on a Unix box):
strings dumpfile.dmp | grep SCHEMA_LIST
In my case, based on Aldur's and slafs' answers I came up with this expression that should tell you just the name of the original schema:
cat -v file.dmp | grep 'SCHEMA_LIST' | uniq -u | grep -o -P '(?<=SCHEMAS\=).*(?=content)'
Tested for a DMP file from Oracle 19.8 version.
