The entire contents of the file into a CLOB field? Yerk. You are going to have sizing problems but I'd try feeding the OCI stage from a Folder. That will automatically bring in the file contents as one large LongVarChar field.

As long as the '1 for = 0' is an 'OK (Conditional)' trigger and not something custom, I think you'll be fine with that.

It's still "handling" it because it doesn't think you are. Try adding a third 'Otherwise' link so it does... or just let it handle it. Why not return negative values to indicate a problem?

What exactly are you putting in the User-Defined SQL tab when you select the 'File' update action? I don't recall that option needing any kind of extra keyw...

If you mark the constraint as a 'Reject Row' you'll automatically get an 'alert' (read 'warning') logged with the total row count rejected if anything goes down it. As noted, the answer is heavily dependant on what kind of 'alert' you want.
