Hi Vijaya

Try adding a when others clause to your code and print out sqlerrm and
get a better idea of what the actual error is. As follows

when others then
dbms_output.put_line(sqlcode||' '||sqlerrm);
raise_application_error(-20001,'un-handled exception from our
code');

RE: Urgent : UTL file problem

2002-08-14 Thread johanna . doran

I have seen this error when the UTL_FILE_DIR parameter is set incorrectly.
It may be a typo, the directory does not exist, or the user hase no access to it.

I have also found that if the value is entered in the OEM (at least on NT), that 
sometimes it is not properly read.  So, instead, I also update this parameter directly 
in the initora file and if I still have problem, copy and paste the path from the 
initora to your code (amazing how many times this has worked).

Hope it helps (I know you are on unix, but it the same thing I use both);  Also, 
the directory in your call MUST be the same as what is defined in the utl_file_dir 
parameter (you may know this, but just in case).

You are getting an unhandled exception so its not the
'invalid_path' error.  Code in a handler for the other
possible exceptions which should assist.

RE: Urgent : UTL file problem

2002-06-21 Thread Nastase, Mr. C. (Catalin)
Title: RE: Urgent : UTL file problem





vijay,


check the permissions for the /users/vijay directory.
Directories that UTL_FILE can read from and write to must have permissions of the Oracle instance owner and the user running the package.

Also, utl_file_dir=* is not recommended.

RE: Urgent : UTL file problem

2002-06-21 Thread John . Hallas
I think a '/' is missing after vijay.
The documnentation states
"The file location and file name parameters are supplied to the FOPEN
function as separate strings, so that the file location can be checked
against the list of accessible directories as specified in the
initialization file. Together, the file location and name must represent a
legal filename on the system, and the directory must be accessible"

Mote however that if you define utl_file_dir=* this can override o/s level
file permissions and can allow users to amend or delete files that they
should not be allowed to normally. See the following notes 

The parameter specification UTL_FILE_DIR = * has a special meaning. This
entry turns off directory access checking, and it makes any directory
accessible to the UTL_FILE functions. 




Caution: 

The '*' option should be used with great caution. Oracle does not recommend
that you use this option in production systems. Also, do not include '.'
(the current directory for UNIX) in the accessible directories list. 

To ensure security on file systems that enable symbolic links, users must
not be allowed WRITE permission to directories accessible by PL/SQL file I/O
functions. The symbolic links and PL/SQL file I/O could be used to
circumvent normal operating system permission checking and allow users
read/write access to directories to which they would not otherwise have
access.

You should ALWAYS include the OS in your posts.

I'd look to see if user oracle has write permissions into that folder/directory.
