Executing BTEQ file via shell script (BTEQ: Command not found error) - sql

I'm trying to set up an environment to execute BTEQ script via shell script in the local machine. On running the shell script I'm getting an error of BTEQ: Command not found. Not sure what I'm doing wrong.
I've created a separate .tdlogon file which contains .LOGON credentials. BTEQ script is a simple create table statement that I'm trying to execute.
My .tdlogon file is something like
.logon servername/uname,pwd
I'm calling the file like this
#!/bin/bash
server_path=/Users/xyz/xyz
log_path=/Users/xyz/xyz/logs
echo -e 'Starting the script'>> ${log_path}/test_log.log
cat ${server_path}/.tdlogon ${server_path}/code/temp_query.btq | bteq >> ${log_path}/test_log.log 2>&1
if [ ${rtn_code} -ne 0 ] ; then
echo -e 'Script completed successfully'>> ${log_path}/test_log.log
exit 0
else
echo -e 'Error in the script'>> ${log_path}/test_log.log
exit 1
fi
On executing the above code I'm getting below error in the log file
line 10: bteq: command not found
Appreciate any guidance related to this.

Seems like your Linux is not pointing to the bteq path. Update the bteq path:
export PATH=/usr/bin/bteq:$PATH
And, in some cases, there will be bteq32 instead of bteq in that case set path as:
export PATH=/usr/bin/bteq32:$PATH

/bin/bash: command not found Google Colab

I am trying to run a ready project on Google Colab.. when I run a shell it gives the following error:
/bin/bash: example.sh: command not found
How I can solve this problem?
You have two options to run shell script in google-colab:
1) Execute a single script with !:
!sh example.sh
!echo "I am your code !!!"
2) Execute entire code-block as shell script with %%shell:
%%shell
sh example.sh
echo "You should add %% "
Note: In the second approach, entire block interpreted as shell script. You do not need ! at beginning of every script.

How to use Command Grep inside a script

I'm using this inside a script:
VAR=$(grep -c mac myfile.tmp)
echo $VAR
the result is 0 when I run the script. But if I run the command in command line it returns the real value that is 1.
Anyone know what the problem is?

Unable to run a postgresql script from bash

I am learning the shell language. I have creating a shell script whose function is to login into the DB and run a .sql file. Following are the contents of the script -
#!/bin/bash
set -x
echo "Login to postgres user for autoqa_rpt_production"
$DB_PATH -U $POSTGRESS_USER $Auto_rpt_production$TARGET_DB -p $TARGET_PORT
echo "Running SQL Dump - auto_qa_db_sync"
\\i auto_qa_db_sync.sql
After running the above script, I get the following error
./autoqa_script.sh: 39: ./autoqa_script.sh: /i: not found
Following one article, I tried reversing the slash but it didn't worked.
I don't understand why this is happening. Because when I try manually running the sql file, it works properly. Can anyone help?
#!/bin/bash
set -x
echo "Login to postgres user for autoqa_rpt_production and run script"
$DB_PATH -U $POSTGRESS_USER $Auto_rpt_production$TARGET_DB -p $TARGET_PORT -f auto_qa_db_sync.sql
The lines you put in a shell script are (moreless, let's say so for now) equivalent to what you would put right to the Bash prompt (the one ending with '$' or '#' if you're a root). When you execute a script (a list of commands), one command will be run after the previous terminates.
What you wanted to do is to run the client and issue a "\i ./autoqa_script.sh" comand in it.
What you did was to run the client, and after the client terminated, issue that command in Bash.
You should read about Bash pipelines - these are the way to run programs and input text inside them. Following your original idea to solving the problem, you'd write something like:
echo '\i auto_qa_db_sync.sql' | $DB_PATH -U $POSTGRESS_USER $Auto_rpt_production$TARGET_DB -p $TARGET_PORT
Hope that helps to understand.

Need help to write bat file that execute sql scripts in (sql server 2008 and another 3 files.?

I am sure these has been asked before but cannot find clear instruction how to create a
batch file lets call it "Update Database" this batch file should
Execute sql scripts located in different folders
Execute another 3 bat files.
Any quick examples how to do it?Never done it before
thanks a lot
EDITED
Can I do this?
:On Error exit
:r C:\myPath\MasterUpdateDatabase.bat
GO
SQLCMD -S (Local) -i C:\myPath\InsertUsername.sql
I get an error:
"GO" is not recognized as internal external command
Thanks for any input
It looks like you're trying to use DOS commands to create a batch file that either (a) executes other batch files or (b) executes SQLCMD to run sql or a sql script.
Here are a couple examples all rolled into one. I'm using the DOS command START with the /WAIT switch, which will keep your original "master" batch file running in one window and execute the subsequent file or commands in a new window. That new window stays open until the script finished AND exits.
Some of the ECHOs probably aren't required, but the script will talk back to you for now, a little.
#echo off
So, this is pretty simple in the sense that you're just running the script. If you're script1.bat has break points, you can return an error back to the main script and have it end immediately. I wasn't clear if that was what you needed the master script to do.
echo Starting Database Update.
echo.
echo Excuting Script 1
echo.
start /wait C:\path\to\your\script1.bat
echo If there was a problem, break here.
Pause
echo Excuting Script 2
echo.
start /wait C:\path\to\your\script2.bat
echo If there was a problem, break here.
Pause
Here is where did used the same START /WAIT to run SQLCMD, which in this case just returns results from the query. One thing to note here is that the -Q (uppercase) runs the query and quits. If you use -q (lowercase) it will run the query and sit open in SQLCMD waiting for another query.
echo.
echo Running SQLCMD: "select top 100 * from sys.objects"
start /wait sqlcmd -S (local) -Q "select top 100 * from sys.objects"
And this is how you can run a sql script, which is what the -i denotes, but I also didn't run this in the START /WAIT as earlier. Not that you have to, but I wanted to show both examples. What this also shows is the -b will end the batch process if your script returns an error, which is useful if you're running multiple scripts that depend on success of the former(s).
echo.
echo Running SQLCMD from an (-i)nput file:
sqlcmd -S (local) -i C:\path\to\your\script.sql -b
echo.
echo Update Complete.
pause
End
So, I assumed you were looking for a .bat or .cmd file that utilized SQLCMD. The example I provided is pretty basic, but hopefully it sets you on the right path.
OH! And remember that CTRL+C breaks a batch script in process.
The actual error you're seeing is that the command line interpreter does not recognize 'GO', so you could just remove that line.
Hope this helps you :
sqlplus UserName/Password#DataBase #C:\myPath\InsertUsername.sql
P.S : Don't forget to add the command "commit;" at the end of sql file (InsertUsername.sql), this command order Oracle to save performed changes in darabase
This answer definitely works for your purposes:
sqlcmd -S localhost -U fdmsusr -P fdmsamho -i "E:\brantst\BranchAtt.sql" -o "E:\brantst\branchlog.txt"

sqlcmd runs script but script does not affect database

So we have a .bat file that runs SQL scripts, e.g.
#ECHO --- 03_Case6395_Publication.sql --- >> dbupt.log
sqlcmd -U %1 -P %2 -S %3 -d %4 -i 03_Case6395_Publication.sql -k -b >> dbupt.log
IF ERRORLEVEL 1 GOTO ErrorTag
The script runs and gives no errors, but the script doesn't actually affect the database. In the example above, here is what is being run:
IF NOT EXISTS (SELECT 1 FROM [dbo].[syscolumns] WHERE [NAME] = N'MandatoryInList' AND [ID] = object_id(N'Pub_Type'))
BEGIN
ALTER TABLE [dbo].[Pub_Type] ADD [MandatoryInList] bit NULL CONSTRAINT [DF_PubType_MandatoryInList] DEFAULT (0)
END
ELSE
BEGIN
ALTER TABLE [dbo].[Pub_Type] ALTER COLUMN [MandatoryInList] bit NULL
END
GO
The script is pretty simple and you would expect it to add a column called MandatoryInList, however it doesn't. The odd thing is there are no syntax errors in the script and when I run it from SQL Server Management Studio, it runs fine. There's no issues with permissions or which user is running the script because there are other scripts that run fine in the batch file.
I should also mention that this runs from a GUI by creating a new process and running it but not showing the command window. But regardless, I've been running the tool like this for months without any issues.
Any ideas?
So it works from Management Studio but not from your batch file that calls sqlcmd. Strange...
I don't know what could cause this, but here are some ideas:
If you run the same "sqlcmd" command manually from the command prompt, rather than from your batch file, does it work?
If you run the batch file from the command prompt, rather than invoking it from the GUI app, does it work?
What's it writing to your dbupt.log file? Does it have the header "--- 03_Case6395_Publication.sql --- ", and it's empty after that?
Can you add some PRINT statements to the script, so you can see whether it's executing the IF or the ELSE part?
Can you try redirecting the error stream to your log file as well, using the "2>&1" operator? E.g.:
sqlcmd -U %1 -P %2 -S %3 -d %4 -i 03_Case6395_Publication.sql -k -b >> dbupt.log 2>&1
Can you try changing "IF ERRORLEVEL 1" to "IF NOT ERRORLEVEL 0"?
Have you tried using SQL Profiler to see what SQL is actually executing? Does anything show up?
