Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> SQL*Loader - error writing to bad file
Hi,
I am using Oracle 8.0.4 on Solaris 2.6.
Trying to load data from a text file to a table using SQL*Loader.
Receiving the following error during the load:
SQL*Loader-523: error-2 writing to file
(/mnt/voyager/ccuser/ccuser.bad)
The load.shl file contains bad file parameter: BAD=$DIR/$FILENAME.bad \
Tried changing permissions on .bad file from:
-rwx------ to -rw-r--r--. Still receive error.
We are using fixed position records. The errant record is too short. I have also tried adding TRAILING NULLCOLS to the control file, but the error still occurs.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Michelle
