How to get Liquibase serveroutput - liquibase

How to get serveroutput for sql scripts using liquibase with springboot ?.
I have already tried 'set serveroutput on', but this is not working.

You will have to use SQLPlus integration with Liquibase and then you can set serveroutput to ON. Documentation can be found here: https://docs.liquibase.com/concepts/advanced/runwith.html
You can read a blog about it here: https://www.liquibase.com/blog/using-sqlplus-liquibase

ORA-00922: Missing or Invalid option for SET FEEDBACK OFF in TOAD

I am using TOAD application to execute my query which you can see below:
SET FEEDBACK OFF;
SELECT * FROM TABLENAME
-- and then rest of the queries
I used SET FEEDBACK OFF in Toad app (by Quest Software) as an alternative to SET NOCOUNT ON in SQL, but it shows error and says:
ORA-00922: Missing or Invalid option
Is there any alternative to SET NOCOUNT ON that we write in SQL for Oracle?
SET set of commands - in Oracle - was originally related to its command-line tool named SQL*Plus. It (the SET) works in some other tools, such as Oracle's GUI - SQL Developer.
Mathguy showed me that TOAD recognizes quite a lot SQL*Plus commands (I thought it does not); it is the way you run code in TOAD:
if you run it as a separate command, it won't work:
on the other hand, if you run it as a script, then it works, and the result is displayed in its "Script output" tab:

Executing sql file from another sql file

I have a .sql file with name Alter_table.sql which have the following code.
alter table mytable add newcolumn VARCHAR2(1);
I don't want to edit this file and add a spool command. However I need to execute Alter_table.sql by writing spool in another file (execute_sql.sql) which should look like the below. I am not sure of the correct syntax. Can anyone please help here?
SET SERVEROUTPUT ON
SET DEFINE OFF
SPOOL Alter_Table_STD_SOURCE.log
EXEC username/password#database `Alter_table.sql`
SPOOL OFF;
SET DEFINE ON
SET SERVEROUTPUT OFF
(Thanks to Alex Poole) :-)
You need to connect first, then run your .sql file in the wrapper script using the '#' sign or 'START' commands:
...
-- Connect if not already connected.
CONNECT username/password#database
#Alter_table.sql
...
I'm not sure its a good idea to keep login/password in a file but you need to take security into account.

How to pass a bash variable to sqlplus and then pass that output to another variable

So what I'm trying to do is to clear the audit logs of the PDB in an Oracle database. The name of the PDB can be different each time, so I cannot use tnsnames to sqlplus directly into the PDB to do this. I'm passing commands into bash and then passing those into a SQLPLUS command. Each of these work except for one and I can't seem to figure out how to get it to work.
My code is
AUDIT="DELETE FROM SYS.AUD$ WHERE NTIMESTAMP# < sysdate-30;"
FINDPDB="select pdb_name from dba_pdbs where pdb_name != 'PDB\$SEED';"
ALTER="alter session set container=$FINDPDB;"
sqlplus -S /nolog <<EOF1
connect / as sysdba
set echo off feedback off head off pages 0
set serveroutput on
$FINDPDB
$ALTER
$AUDIT
exit;
EOF1
The error I keep getting is
alter session set container=select pdb_name from dba_pdbs where pdb_name != 'PDB$SEED';
*
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-65015: missing or invalid container name
This tells me that it's not passing the output of the select statement to $FINDPDB, but rather the actual select statement itself.
Is there a way I can pass this value to the ALTER variable and have it alter the session and clear the sys.aud$ table?
The error I keep getting is
alter session set container=select pdb_name from dba_pdbs where pdb_name != 'PDB$SEED';
*
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-65015: missing or invalid container name
This tells me that it's not passing the output of the select statement to $FINDPDB, but rather the actual select statement itself.
I don't see why you would expect this to pass the output of the SELECT query into $FINDPDB. You're putting together a big long string which bash passes to the standard input of sqlplus and then writes to stdout the output from sqlplus. At no point is bash picking out certain lines of the sqlplus output and putting them into shell variables.
In fact, try adding echo $ALTER to your bash script before you call sqlplus. You will quite probably find that the output is
alter session set container=select pdb_name from dba_pdbs where pdb_name != 'PDB$SEED';
If so, then bash has already done the substitution you didn't want before you've even started sqlplus.
You seem to want bash and sqlplus to have some kind of back-and-forth dialog. I would give up on this approach. Instead of trying to put the PDB name into a shell variable, I would put it into a sqlplus substitution variable. I would try something like the following (not tested):
sqlplus -S /nolog <<"EOF1"
connect / as sysdba
set echo off feedback off head off pages 0
set serveroutput on
column pdb_name new_value pdb
select pdb_name from dba_pdbs where pdb_name != 'PDB\$SEED';
alter session set container = &pdb.;
delete from sys.aud$ where ntimestamp# < sysdate - 30;
exit;
EOF1
We use column pdb_name new_value pdb to set the substitution variable pdb to the next value to be selected from a column named pdb_name. We then run a select query to fetch the PDB name and hence store it in pdb. Once we've got this value in a substitution variable, we can then issue the alter session statement to change the PDB and finally the delete statement to delete data from the PDB.
I'm tempted to avoid the use of a PL/SQL block for this, as has been suggested in another answer. I would prefer that the delete statement is parsed after the PDB is changed as I would want to be sure that the data from the 'correct' PDB is being deleted. My concern with using PL/SQL for this is that the PL/SQL compiler would determine which table to delete from when the block is parsed, which would be before it runs the block, and hence before it executes the alter session statement to change the PDB. However, I don't know PDBs and CDBs in Oracle 12c well enough to say whether this is a genuine problem or unfounded nonsense.
I don't have access to a pluggable Oracle 12c database to run something like this against, so I can't tell you whether this script works. If not, hopefully it should give you an idea of where to go.
I have no Oracle instance at hand but I see two ways to do this :
Make many connections through SQL*Plus
First, to retrieve pdb_name.
Second, to set container and delete audits.
Uses a single SQL*Plus but uses two named pipes
One to send generated SQL commands
Second to read SQL*Plus output
As alternative way I should have used a "real" programming language (Ruby, Python, JavaScript) which are better dedicated to deal with data read from database.
EDIT: After some search, it mays be done in PL/SQL
DECLARE
v_pdb_name VARCHAR2(255);
BEGIN
SELECT pdb_name INTO v_pdb_name FROM dba_pdbs WHERE pdb_name != 'PDB\$SEED';
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'ALTER SESSION SET container='||v_pdb_name;
DELETE FROM sys.aud$ WHERE ntimestamp# < sysdate-30;
END;

PL/SQL procedure issue

I'm new to Oracle PL/SQL and have been trying to run this code but only getting the following message - PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.
SQL> DECLARE
v_num NUMBER:=10;
BEGIN
FOR v_num IN 1..3
LOOP
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE(v_num);
END LOOP;
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE(v_num);
END;
SQL/Plus doesn't print output by default; you have to enable it:
set serveroutput on
Afterwards, DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE will print output as expected.
If you want you can add the line
set serveroutput on
to the file
$ORACLE_HOME/sqlplus/admin/glogin.sql
This will cause the server output to be on after you login to SQL*Plus -- you won't have to type it in each time you login.
HTH
Frank Schmitt has suggested a method to connect to the pl/sql server.
However, you can also achieve this by using dbms_output view! I found this
useful blog that explains the required steps to activate the
dbms_output package

set serveroutput ON permanently?

I am new in oracle and doing practice for the PL/SQL. I have one question i.e. :
how to set serveroutput ON permanently in oracle. Is their any way that we use to set it permanently ON?
If you are refering to SQL*Plus you should set this in your glogin.sql file.
You can find this file in ORACLE_HOME\sqlplus\admin.
As far as I know there is no way of setting server output ON permanently.
But if this question is connected to fact that for every new session in SQL developer, 1 needs to execute SET SERVEROUTPUT ON statement in beginning for seeing PL/SQL code result, then solution is Go to view->DBMS_Output
Then below you will see dbms output window. There is a plus(+) button there. Click and add schema on which you are working currently. Then PL/SQL script output can be seen there.
