Im a teaching assistant for a databases course in my university. I have the assignments of all of the students. Each assignment has a file 'queries.sql'. Is there a way to run all these scripts at once and spool the output to its own output file in ubuntu?
you need look into SQLPLus documentation
see for SqlPlus command line parameters serveroutput and spool
2 exampleы of run sql files from sqplus
start.sql - the file that start student1.sql and student2.sql
student1.sql - file for student 1
student2.sql - file for student 2
to run the example you need run SqlPlus sqlplus myuser/mypassword#myserver #start.sql
the script files below
1 example start.sql spools each file into separate output
set serveroutput on
spool students1.out
##.\student1.sql
spool students2.out
##.\student2.sql
spool off
set serveroutput off
exit
2nd example start.sql spool all files into one output file
set serveroutput on
spool students.out
##.\student1.sql
##.\student2.sql
spool off
set serveroutput off
exit
students files - just simple "hello I'm student" scripts
student1.sql
begin
dbms_output.put_line('hello I`m student1');
end;
/
student1.sq2
begin
dbms_output.put_line('hello I`m student1');
end;

I am trying to export a .csv file (spool file) that has the result set of a very simple query that I am running in Oracle SQL Developer. The spool file generates; however, only the query is displayed (select * FROM TABLE) with no result set. What am i doing wrong? The command I am using is as follows:
spool "C:\Temp\test.csv"
select * from table;
spool off;
Thanks in advance
Use below commands to get the output of the query in spool file
SET SERVEROUTPUT ON
SET ECHO ON
After executing the select query don't forget to spool off.
So i did some more research / experimenting and i found that the following works:
I first created a sql file with the appropriate sql script /command and placed it in a directory (C:\TEMP). Then i ran the following command:
SET NEWPAGE 0
SET SPACE 0
SET PAGESIZE 0
SET FEEDBACK OFF
SET HEADING OFF
set verify off
SET ECHO OFF
spool "c:\Temp\test.csv"
#c:\Temp\test.sql as script(F5);
spool off
However now i run into a road block where oracle throws me an error saying that only 5,000 rows are currently supposed in script results...
Edit: I created the above code as a .sql file (test2.sql) and ran the below script. But am still encountering the 5000 row error:
SET NEWPAGE 0
SET SPACE 0
SET PAGESIZE 0
SET FEEDBACK OFF
SET HEADING OFF
set verify off
SET ECHO OFF
spool "c:\Temp\test2.csv"
#c:\Temp\test2.sql as script(F5);
spool off
The following worked when I tried to increase the limit: I went up to my sql developer tool bar ( tools > prefs > database > worksheet) and was able to change the maximum output limit.
I have one script file called Test.sql in D:\Scripts folder and the content of the file is given below
SET SERVEROUTPUT ON
SET DEFINE OFF
SPOOL Test.log;
SELECT USER_NAME FROM TUP_USER WHERE USER_ID=1432;
SPOOL OFF;
SET DEFINE ON
SET SERVEROUTPUT OFF
I normally execute this by opening command prompt, locate to D:\Scripts and give sqlplus username/password#Database and then give #test.sql to execute this and it will generate a log file called Test.log
Every time I execute this, it replaces the old file with the new data. I need to append new data to the file using spool. Is there a way to do that?
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Finally got the solution for this!
Add append after Test.log
SET SERVEROUTPUT ON
SET DEFINE OFF
SPOOL Test.log append;
SELECT USER_NAME FROM TUP_USER WHERE USER_ID=1432;
SPOOL OFF;
SET DEFINE ON
SET SERVEROUTPUT OFF
Just add append when you're writing the spool query:
spool d:\lab1.txt append;
I have a pl/SQL query that has a variable .
I want DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE to a file used on the machine (linux)
Does someone know how to do this?
You need to put some pieces together. Here is my inspiration: DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE not printing
a) put your plsql in an sql script, e.g. d.sql - the key here is set serveroutput:
set serveroutput on size 30000;
begin
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('my line');
end;
/
exit
b) Then write another script - ksh this time - containing:
sqlplus / #d.sql > output.txt
If you want to restrain what displays from sqlplus, then read appropriate documentation about set statement
I tried
select * from users
save D:\test.sql create;
But SQL plus gives me "no proper ended"
How to specify path in oracle sql in windows?
Use the spool:
spool myoutputfile.txt
select * from users;
spool off;
Note that this will create myoutputfile.txt in the directory from which you ran SQL*Plus.
If you need to run this from a SQL file (e.g., "tmp.sql") when SQLPlus starts up and output to a file named "output.txt":
tmp.sql:
select * from users;
Command:
sqlplus -s username/password#sid #tmp.sql > output.txt
Mind you, I don't have an Oracle instance in front of me right now, so you might need to do some of your own work to debug what I've written from memory.
Very similar to Marc, only difference I would make would be to spool to a parameter like so:
WHENEVER SQLERROR EXIT 1
SET LINES 32000
SET TERMOUT OFF ECHO OFF NEWP 0 SPA 0 PAGES 0 FEED OFF HEAD OFF TRIMS ON TAB OFF
SET SERVEROUTPUT ON
spool &1
-- Code
spool off
exit
And then to call the SQLPLUS as
sqlplus -s username/password#sid #tmp.sql /tmp/output.txt
spool "D:\test\test.txt"
select
a.ename
from
employee a
inner join department b
on
(
a.dept_id = b.dept_id
)
;
spool off
This query will spool the sql result in D:\test\test.txt
just to make the Answer 2 much easier, you can also define the folder where you can put your saved file
spool /home/admin/myoutputfile.txt
select * from table_name;
spool off;
after that only with nano or vi myoutputfile.txt, you will see all the sql track.
hope is that help :)
Having the same chore on windows 10, and windows server 2012.
I found the following solution:
echo quit |sqlplus schemaName/schemaPassword#sid #plsqlScript.sql > outputFile.log
Explanation
echo quit | send the quit command to exit sqlplus after the script completes
sqlplus schemaName/schemaPassword#sid #plsqlScript.sql execute plssql script plsqlScript.sql in schema schemaName with password schemaPassword connecting to SID sid
> outputFile.log redirect sqlplus output to log file outputFile.log
I am using Solaris. I have to log into sql plus and run some queries, which give a huge result set.
I want to copy all that into a file. Is there any command for it in unix or sqlplus ?
Use the SPOOL command:
SQL> SPOOL /opt/output
SQL> SELECT ...
SQL> SPOOL OFF
setup Oracle environment
(there are ways around specifying username/password on the command line - not the best way especially when other users can 'ps' on the server and see your password)
sqlplus -s username/password <<-!!
set trimspool on trimout on pages 0 feedback off linesize 1000 echo off verify off
spool file.out
select sysdate from dual;
exit
!!
If you are on the command line then just use the > and 2> to redirect stdout and stderr respectively to log files
func > out.log
