Hi friends,

I am facing trouble while loading data into a table using sqlldr.

The control file is like this

OPTIONS ( ROWS=1000)
LOAD DATA
INFILE 'E:\test.txt'
APPEND
INTO TABLE "TEMP"
FIELDS TERMINATED BY ","
OPTIONALLY ENCLOSED BY '"'
TRAILING NULLCOLS
(USER_ID , START_TIME DATE "MM/DD/YYYY HH24:MI:SS")

The contents of the test.txt file is this

user1,09/26/2007 4:53:33 PM
user2,10/22/2008 4:53:33 PM

When I try to load the data I am getting the following error

Record 1: Rejected - Error on table "TEMP", column START_TIME.
ORA-01830: date format picture ends before converting entire input string. Please let me know what is going wrong.

Well, date format you used isn't compatible with data you are trying to load. "PM" suggests that you must use it in DATE format. Furthermore, it means that you have to remove HH24. So, you should try with

START_TIME DATE "MM/DD/YYYY HH:MI:SS PM"
