Like these
utl_file_dir=/u327/applmgr/10_7/finprod_output/hfs_data utl_file_dir=/u327/applmgr/10_7/har/1.0.0/mm_cbdata
and these are the last entries in initSID.ora file.

What does your utl_file_dir parameter look like in your init.ora? I am using AIX.
>>> rafiq9857_at_hotmail.com 10/03/02 11:43AM >>> What flavor of unix...ON HP-UX 10.20/11 Oracle ver 7.3.4.5 we have no problem with separate entries as mentioned by Jared. However, don't keep gap between these entries...and define it the way it was explained by Jared.

On unix, multiple entries in the init.ora file results in the last entry being the only valid value (i.e. last time variable is set). I tested below and only dir3 is listed as a utl_file_dir parameter. But if you comma delimit them w/ 1 instance of the variable then all dir's are listed. Maybe NT is different, fortunately never had to support Oracle on NT :).

The multiple lines shown are actually the documented method for doing this.
The single line with comma delimited entries may also work, though I'm not sure about it.

i believe its
utl_file_dir=dir1,dir2,dir3,...
in your example, dir 3 would be the only valid dir.
hth,

>>> SXBaswan_at_dcss.com 10/01/02 12:53PM >>> Make sure you have the directory name entry covered in INIT.ORA
e.g.
utl_file_dir = D:\directory name1 utl_file_dir = D:\directory name2 utl_file_dir = D:\directory name3
You need one entry per directory that you want to write to using UTL_FILE Package
Hope this helps

the vms user oracle needs rights to the directory.
>>> RROGERS_at_galottery.org 09/30/02 10:53AM >>> List,
I have a package that creates files on the server. The directory location and file name are obtained from tables in oracle. The procedure works as designed on Novell 7.3.4 and no changes were needed when the database way loaded on Linux Oracle 8.1.7. I am trying to move the database from the Novell to an OPENVMS Oracle 8.1.7 server and I can't get the package to write the files to the OS directory.
The package is created by the Oracle user DTSUSER and executed by
DTSUSER. There is no OPENVMS user DTSUSER.
The sysadmin assures me that the permissions are correct to write to
the directory.
I have place a Dbms_output in the package to display the directory
information and it looks correct.
Is there anything different that has to be done to an OPENVMS server that will allow a package to write to a directory using the Utl_File package?
Listing from the Oracle tables:
DTS_PARAMETER_NAME DTS_PARAMETER_VALUE
LOAD_USERID LOADITUP LOAD_PASSWORD ILOADIT LOAD_SERVICE_NAME GLC_ALPHADEV-TCP LOAD_PAR_FILE_DIR ORADSK:[ORACLE8.DATA.PAR] LOAD_DATA_FILE_DIR Disk1:[Pro_ics.Iqfiles] LOAD_CONTROL_FILE_DIR ORADSK:[ORACLE8.DATA.CONTROL] LOAD_LOG_FILE_DIR ORADSK:[ORACLE8.DATA.LOG] LOAD_BAD_FILE_DIR ORADSK:[ORACLE8.DATA.BAD] LOAD_DISCARD_FILE_DIR ORADSK:[ORACLE8.DATA.DISCARD]
Listing from the package that writes the parameter file:

Exception

Thanks, Any assistance would be appreciated. I am just getting in to
the OPENVMS OS.
