Like these
utl_file_dir=/u327/applmgr/10_7/finprod_output/hfs_data
utl_file_dir=/u327/applmgr/10_7/har/1.0.0/mm_cbdata
and these are the last entries in initSID.ora file.

What does your utl_file_dir parameter look like in your init.ora? I am
using AIX.

What flavor of unix...ON HP-UX 10.20/11 Oracle ver 7.3.4.5 we have no
problem with separate entries as mentioned by Jared. However, don't keep gap
between these entries...and define it the way it was explained by Jared.

On unix, multiple entries in the init.ora file results in the last entry
being the only valid value (i.e. last time variable is set). I tested below
and only dir3 is listed as a utl_file_dir parameter. But if you comma
delimit them w/ 1 instance of the variable then all dir's are listed. Maybe
NT is different, fortunately never had to support Oracle on NT :).

Gene,

The multiple lines shown are actually the documented method for doing
this.
The single line with comma delimited entries may also work, though I'm
not sure about it.

Subject: RE: Utl_file and OPENVMS
i believe its
utl_file_dir=dir1,dir2,dir3,...
in your example, dir 3 would be the only valid dir.
hth,

Make sure you have the directory name entry covered in INIT.ORA
e.g.
utl_file_dir = D:\directory name1
utl_file_dir = D:\directory name2
utl_file_dir = D:\directory name3
You need one entry per directory that you want to write to using UTL_FILE
Package
Hope this helps

the vms user oracle needs rights to the directory.
>>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 09/30/02 10:53AM >>>
List,
I have a package that creates files on the server. The directory
location and file name are obtained from tables in oracle. The procedure
works as designed on Novell 7.3.4 and no changes were needed when the
database way loaded on Linux Oracle 8.1.7. I am trying to move the
database from the Novell to an OPENVMS Oracle 8.1.7 server and I can't
get the package to write the files to the OS directory.
The package is created by the Oracle user DTSUSER and executed by
DTSUSER. There is no OPENVMS user DTSUSER.
The sysadmin assures me that the permissions are correct to write to
the directory.
I have place a Dbms_output in the package to display the directory
information and it looks correct.
Is there anything different that has to be done to an OPENVMS server
that will allow a package to write to a directory using the Utl_File
package?
Listing from the Oracle tables:
