Hi

I am trying to upload data from a flat file in my database through sql loader. My flat file contains data for example

Sancán
Sánchez-Galán
López, Tomás
Ramírez
Arróliga García

these records are not getting inserted in my table and I have also created a bad file to log the bad data and all these records are inserted in that bad file. Is there any way how I can modify my control file and get the data inserted in my table
I really need this data.

my control file is in this manner

load data
replace
into table EPH_STAGING
fields terminated by '|'
trailing nullcols
(
UNIQUE_IDENTIFIER NULLIF UNIQUE_IDENTIFIER=BLANKS "TRIM(:UNIQUE_IDENTIFIER)",
CHEVRON_LOGON_ID NULLIF CHEVRON_LOGON_ID=BLANKS "TRIM(:CHEVRON_LOGON_ID)",
SUPERVISOR_ID NULLIF SUPERVISOR_ID=BLANKS "TRIM(:SUPERVISOR_ID)",
SUPERVISOR_NAME NULLIF SUPERVISOR_NAME=BLANKS "TRIM(:SUPERVISOR_NAME)",

Thanks
Monisha

Your control file (at least the one you posted) is not valid.
It is hard to tell what is wrong when you have not the table description.

With what you posted, we have to assume (if control file and data are correct) that you only want to load the first column (unique_identifier) and it is a varchar2.

You have to post your log file, if you want more help.

But before, please read OraFAQ Forum Guide, especially "How to format your post?" section.
Make sure that lines of code do not exceed 80 characters when you format.
Indent the code (See SQL Formatter) and align the columns in result.
Use the "Preview Message" button to verify.

Michel

You have to analyze your script to know what command is used to launch sql*loader and where its output goes.

Everything is correct in this log.
Could you post a line of data that is not correctly loaded and the select on the table for this line what you expected for this line and row.
