What if you change the date to character in the where predicate.
Just the where clause:

Code: Select all

WHERE 
TO_CHAR(SEND_DATE, 'YYYYMMDD') > '20060831'
AND TO_CHAR(SEND_DATE, 'YYYYMMDD') <= '20070330'
AND Substr(act_code,3,1)<>'R'
AND media <> 'Intranet'

What is the log entry for after job subroutine? Are there any warning messages? Reset the job and see if any messages, "From Previous run..." show up in the log.

Dont let it happen again. Utilize the job log purge settings option. Dont let it grow too large.
If you exported your entire project to a new project, then you can drop the old project. This will ensure all hashed files are removed pertaining to logs.

How good are your C skills? Writing a C function that will remove letters/digits is not hard. You will have to read the string, one character at a time, assign it to an integer variable which will store the character's ascii code. You can constraint ascii codes to integers and alphabets.

You can set Identity Insert On in OPEN statement and OFF in CLOSE statement. But that means that you will have to generate the keys and pass the key column in your insert. And no one else should load anything into that table at that time. I am not sure why your job is hanging. Get together with your...

I bet the error message is for the target stage. What is the column you have defined in the target OCI stage? Does that table exist in the database? Does it have the column you are using? Are you using user defined sql in the target stage or generated, if generated then what is your update action?

:oops: I did not pay much attention to that, my bad. My focus was stuck on the fact that the OP was not opening the fully pathed hashed file, just the hashed file name.
