RE: SQLplus question unusual behavior

2003-01-21 Thread Harvey Neil



Possibly a FGAC policy with the UPDATE_CHECK 
flag set to FALSE. This would allow the current user to insert rows, but not 
necessarily view them. Are you connected to SQL*Plus as the table owner or a 
subordinate user?

Check in the USER / DBA_POLICIES view where 
the OBJECT_NAME='FACILITY'

Re: SQLplus question unusual behavior

2003-01-21 Thread Arup Nanda
Sony,

In my post I mentioned that there could be two tables named facility (note
the lowercase) and FACILITY. They can be created and then the data
dictionary will have two tables. For Oracle they are two different names,
not the same.

However, I believe the diagnosis by Harvey Neil, that there could be a FGAC
policy on the table is the correct one. John, could you let us know if that
was the problem, please.

 If it is possible, how could two tables have the same name and structure
in
 one tablespace ? I think you should check your data dictionary or your
 program documentation.
 Hope this helps.

 Rgrds,

Dunno, I think the policy was enabled, all myths and mysteries
are in our minds, a piece of software is either working or
getting glitches.

The rule: never reboot anything (your car is included :) unless

Re: SQLplus question unusual behavior

2003-01-20 Thread Chaim . Katz

Arup,
How about  select * instead of select count... Maybe the data is there but
something is wrong with sql*plus set up (numwidth) so that you don't see
the count.
( I know that sounds stranger than the original question, but from the
query you posted it looks like the count(*) is null which can't be...)

I am trying to update a  small table from a remote table with sqlplus
9.2.0.2 .
It seems  to indicate that it has inserted 233 row into my local table -
however  that doesn't really happen.
Am I suffering from a severe lack of caffine  or is this really odd?

Arup,
How about  select * instead of select count... Maybe the data is there but
something is wrong with sql*plus set up (numwidth) so that you don't see
the count.
( I know that sounds stranger than the original question, but from the
query you posted it looks like the count(*) is null which can't be...)

If it is possible, how could two tables have the same name and structure in
one tablespace ? I think you should check your data dictionary or your

Hope this helps.

RE: sqlplus question

2002-09-20 Thread Naveen Nahata
Title: RE: sqlplus question



SQLPlus outputs 
data in columns based on their Maximum length or the COLUMN format set in 
SQLPlus. Value of SQLPlus COLUMN attribute takes precedence.

Even when you do 
a substr() based on length, SQLPlusdoesn't calculate the length of the 
maximum length value and format columns accordingly. It still looks at the 
column width until or unless u substring to a constant value like 
substr(column_name, 1, 10)

Thebest way 
is to select the columns themselves concatenated with the column 
separatore.g SELECT col_1 || ',' || 
col_2 etc.

If any of the 
columns is a CHAR column then you'll have to use trim() or ltrim(rtrim()) 
depending upon the oracle version

naveen

 blanks for that field. I only want the four 
  valid bytes sothat my delimiter comes

Howdy,

I am spooling my sqlplus output to a file with no headings and all the
fields separated by a delimiter. I have a field that is defined as
varchar2(56), but typically only 4 or 5 bytes are filled. Oracle recognizes
that and if you select length(fld1) from the table, you will get 4. But if I
spool this to a file, I always get the full 56 bytes padded with blanks. In
other words, I get 4 bytes of data and 52 blanks for that field. I only want
the four valid bytes so that my delimiter comes immediately after that 4th
byte. My sqlplus options are as follows:

set newpage 0 space 0 linesize 5000 pagesize 0 echo off recsep off feedback
off
heading off trimspool on colsep |

RE: sqlplus question

2002-09-19 Thread Nicoll, Iain \(Calanais\)

Bill couldn't you just concatenate the fields together with your delimiter
between.

e.g.

select fld1||'|'||fld2||'|'||fld3

I think the trimspool is just trailing blanks so unless you made that the
last field output you'll get this behaviour.

Sounds like your column is getting padded with empty bytes ???

I was going to suggest - col emp form a4

And if you are running an unavowable OS, you can probably turn your

I was also trying to put some script on Oracle scheduler and successful too.
But on Oracle 8
I failed. It was successful on Oracle 8i (8 doesn't support execute
immediate). Would appreciate,
if someone can give equivalent code for Oracle 8. 
Here is the code for Oracle 8i,

create or replace PROCEDURE SWITCH IS

Look in the doc for the dbms_sql package. Hardly more complicated than
'execute immediate' for DDL (you declare a handler for the cursor, then
it's done in two calls, parse and execute).

RE: sqlplus question

2002-01-29 Thread Rajesh Dayal

Thanks Stephan,
Your suggestion had motivated me and I wrote the code,
after RTFM.

Sameer,

I didn't scheduled the job on OS because this should an Oracle Job,
log switching has nothing to do with OS (you don't trouble a company 
GM when the work should be done by a Normal Manager right??). 
And you need to handle the error conditions of OS when your 
DB is down, which is eliminated in this case. 

Any-way thanks to all, 
Rajesh

And-yes, the code is like this:

create or replace PROCEDURE SWITCH1 IS
  c   number;
  d   number;
begin
  c := dbms_sql.open_cursor;
  dbms_sql.parse(c, 'alter system switch logfile', 1);
  d := dbms_sql.execute(c);
  dbms_sql.close_cursor(c);
commit ;
END;

 Does anyone have a suggestion how to do that.



a) - Use the scheduling software for your OS to schedule an OS script/job.
b) - Make your script into a stored procedure and use dbms_job to schedule it.
c) - Run the script every day. Start your SQL*Plus script with the following statements:
whenever sqlerror exit
declare
 saturday constant pls_integer := 6 ;
 sunday constant pls_integer := 7 ;
 today pls_integer ;
begin
 today := to_char (sysdate, 'D') ;
 if today = saturday or today = sunday
 then
 raise_application_error
 (-20001, 'Script should only run on weekday.') ;
 end if ;

RE: sqlplus question

2002-01-28 Thread Bellows, Bambi

Sure.  Depending on your operating system, you can submit it through a
scheduler (e.g., cron, submit, etc.).  If you don't have a snazzy-dazzy
scheduler, you can use as part of the where condition something like
to_char(sysdate,'DAY') in ('MONDAY','WEDNESDAY','FRIDAY'); or whatever.  Or
you can class it up with whenevers.

HTH,
Bambi.

Can you use dbms_job? If so, keep the list of holidays in a database table. Have the stored procedure re-submit the job at the beginning of the procedure, and skip week-ends by checking to_char (sysdate, 'D') and holidays by checking in your holiday table.

2001-07-13 Thread Christian Trassens

Try with

set pagesi 999
set linesi 100
col file_name forma a50
col bytes forma 999,999,999,999
break on dummy
compute sum on dummy of bytes
select file_name,bytes, null as dummy from
sys.dba_data_files

Also on 8.1.X with group by rollup you have another
option.

Regards.

RE: sqlplus question ???

2001-07-13 Thread Kevin Lange

The Compute works hand in hand with the break function.Before the
compute line you need to add

break on report

So, it should be 

set pagesize 999
Set linesize 100
Col file_name format a50
Col bytes format 999,999,999,999
break on report
compute sum of bytes on report
select file_name, bytes from dba_data_files order by
file_name;


I ran it and it works

RE: sqlplus question ???

Andrea:

You need to ad 'break on report', as in

set pagesize 999
Set linesize 100
Col file_name format a50
Col bytes format 999,999,999,999
compute sum of bytes on report
break on report   == Here!
select file_name, bytes from dba_data_files order by
file_name;

HTH,
Mike

Re: sqlplus question ???

2001-07-12 Thread Yosi Greenfield

Yes, there is. You'll get at least 5 replies for this, 'cause
it's an easy one, but maybe I'll be first.

Sum computes on breakpoints, so you have to set the
sum (which you did) and also set the breakpoint (which
you did not).

Add

break on report

to the sql file.

Good luck,

yosi
