Hi all,
I got one problem about UTL_FILE_DIR.
My oracle version is 8i 8.1.6
Platform is unix sun solaris.
I have set UTL_FILE_DIR to : /customer/ShopA
and I write PL/SQL code to write a log file (A.txt )into /customer/ShopA
When I execute the PL/SQL job through SQLPLUS,
I hit error message
It seems to me, I remember something like this. If I do remember correctly,
you need the execute permissions for the directory, so it would need to be
775.
