Yes, thanks that's helpful but.... Here is a job, Im trying to simply call some sql but apparently I cant pass sql as an argument. Or my string variables in the sql are double single quotes?? Im not sure if they should be double single quotes or just double quotes
Should this work?? It submits fine but if I execute it I get the following LOCDB SQL> execute dbms_job.run(71); BEGIN dbms_job.run(71); END; * ERROR at line 1: ORA-12011: execution of 1 jobs failed ORA-06512: at "SYS.DBMS_IJOB", line 394 ORA-06512: at "SYS.DBMS_JOB", line 267 ORA-06512: at line 1 ######################################### variable jobno number; variable instno number; begin select instance_number into :instno from v$instance; dbms_job.submit (:jobno, 'UPDATE TIME SET STATUS = ''O'' WHERE STATUS = ''I'' ;', trunc(sysdate+1), 'trunc(SYSDATE+1)', TRUE, :instno); commit; end; Also, Im not sure how to create a simple stored procedure wich simply contains the above sql. Any help would be graciously accepted...
