TO_TIMESTAMP_TZ function in SQLLDR

Boopathy VasagamOct 20 2013 — edited Oct 21 2013

Hi,

     I am having problem in using TO_TIMESTAMP_TZ function in SQLLDR.

Table definition:

desc ts_table

Name         Null Type                             

------------ ---- ---------------------------------

REQUEST_TIME      TIMESTAMP(6) WITH LOCAL TIME ZONE

Source data:

[oracle@mywligoa01 onewb-loganalyzer]$ cat ts_table.dat

07/Sep/2013:13:04:44 +0700

07/Sep/2013:13:04:44 +0800

07/Sep/2013:13:04:44 +0900

Control File:

[oracle@mywligoa01 onewb-loganalyzer]$ cat ts_table.ctl

LOAD DATA

INFILE 'ts_table.dat'

TRUNCATE INTO TABLE TS_TABLE

FIELDS terminated by " " optionally enclosed by '"' trailing nullcols

(

REQUEST_TIME "TO_TIMESTAMP_TZ(:REQUEST_TIME,'DD/MON/YYYY HH24:MI:SS TZHTZM')"

)

Response:

[oracle@mywligoa01 onewb-loganalyzer]$ sh exec_sqlldr_file.sh log ts_table.ctl

Start Time: Mon Oct 21 11:32:40 SGT 2013

SQLLOG_FILE is: ts_table.ctl_113240211013.log

ts_table.ctl

SQL*Loader-951: Error calling once/load initialization

ORA-26052: Unsupported type 231 for SQL expression on column REQUEST_TIME.

Am I missing something? And the other inference is:

> drop table ts_table

table TS_TABLE dropped.

> create table ts_table(request_time timestamp)

table TS_TABLE created.

> desc ts_table

desc ts_table

Name         Null Type        

------------ ---- ------------

REQUEST_TIME      TIMESTAMP(6)

With same data file and control file calling the sqlldr again.

[oracle@mywligoa01 onewb-loganalyzer]$ sh exec_sqlldr_file.sh log ts_table.ctl

Start Time: Mon Oct 21 11:44:34 SGT 2013

SQLLOG_FILE is: ts_table.ctl_114434211013.log

[oracle@mywligoa01 onewb-loganalyzer]$

Table data: But there is not effect of time zone.

> select * from ts_table
