Good morning everyone Win2k pro, oracle 8.17

Ive been investigating a simple monitor script which will email me if the database is not available. I need this to be as simple as possible (ideally a batch file)

Ive come across this on orafaq
http://www.orafaq.net/scripts/win/isdbup.txt

But dosnt seem to work. If you pass an incorrect sid, or file parameters the script just hangs

I have a modified version

##############################################

Rem dbup.bat
@echo off
set ORACLE_SID=locdb
sqlplus internal/pw@%ORACLE_SID% @C:\conn.sql

if {%ERRORLEVEL%} == {0} (

   echo Database %ORACLE_SID% is available ) else (

   echo Database %ORACLE_SID% is NOT available )

##############################################

[conn.sql]
set echo off feed off pages 0
-- whenever sqlerror exit sql.sqlcode

WHENEVER SQLERROR EXIT 1
select * from global_name;
exit ;

##############################################

Although this works (gets into the error level) AFTER you hit enter to walk throough the errors
The script gets stuck on Errors Such as If the db is down
ERROR:
ORA-01034: ORACLE not available
Enter user-name:
ERROR:
ORA-01017: invalid username/password; logon denied

Or if I pass and invalid sid, (I can live with only passing valid sids) but how can I get sql+ to exit out of the error if in fact the db is not up
I think Ive tried all variations of SQLERROR

Any ideas for the gurus???

Many thanks
bob
