Hi folks,
This is sreenath. I am using oracle 8.1.7 in my system.
I have a data file which I need to insert that data into a table which is having 4 CLOB columns. when I try to insert the data through SQL Loder I am getting badfiles. In the lob file it is specifying like "Field in data file exceeds maximum length".

Let me explain which I have faced the problem with the same.
DDL of my table is
CREATE TABLE GM_OPTION_RULES_INTERFACE
(
SYSTEM_KEY VARCHAR2(15),
MODL_YR_NBR VARCHAR2(5),
VEH_PROD_CD VARCHAR2(15),
SELLNG_SRC_CD VARCHAR2(15),
NAMPLT_CD VARCHAR2(15),
OPTN_CD VARCHAR2(6),
SET_ID VARCHAR2(4),
MDSNG_MODL_DESGTR VARCHAR2(500),
AVAIL_CODE VARCHAR2(3),
START_DATE VARCHAR2(10),
END_DATE VARCHAR2(10),
FIELD1 VARCHAR2(15),
OPERATOR1 VARCHAR2(2),
VALUE1 VARCHAR2(200),
FIELD2 VARCHAR2(15),
OPERATOR2 VARCHAR2(2),
VALUE2 VARCHAR2(200),
FIELD3 VARCHAR2(15),
OPERATOR3 VARCHAR2(2),

DUMMY_MT_NODE_OPTN_CD VARCHAR2(1000),
USAGE CLOB,
OLD_USAGE CLOB,
DROPPED_USAGE CLOB,
AVAIL_USAGE CLOB
);
This is my table.

My control file is
load data
infile 'C:\OptnReleaseRules.dat'
append
into table gm_option_rules_interface
when (sellng_src_cd <> '14')
and (sellng_src_cd <> '23')
and (sellng_src_cd <> '72')
fields terminated by '^'
trailing nullcols
(
System_key sequence(1,1),
Modl_Yr_Nbr position(*+7),
Veh_Prod_cd ,
Sellng_Src_cd ,
Namplt_cd ,
Optn_cd ,
Set_Id ,
Mdsng_modl_desgtr ,
Usage nullif usage=BLANKS,
Avail_Code ,
Start_Date ,
End_Date ,
Field1 nullif field1=BLANKS,
Operator1 ,
Value1 ,
Field2 ,
Operator2 ,
Value2 ,
Field3 ,
Operator3 ,
Value3 ,
Field4 ,
Operator4 ,
Value4 ,
Field5 ,
Operator5 ,
Value5 ,
Field6 ,

Operator7 ,
Value7 ,
Field8 ,
Operator8 ,
Value8 ,
Field9 ,
Operator9 ,
Value9
--, cntry_cd ,
-- lang_cd ,
--error_message
)

dat file is like this
000011^2006^12^13^001^2AC^06^CS15403/CS15603/CS15643/CS15653/CT15403/CT15643/CT15653^&CAP&FLT-FVX/R6D/VN9/VX7.^A^^^OrdTyp^EQ^ FDR/FLS/FNR/FRC/FEF

Log file had created like this.

Record 315: Rejected - Error on table GM_OPTION_RULES_INTERFACE, column USAGE.
Field in data file exceeds maximum length

Record 10642: Rejected - Error on table GM_OPTION_RULES_INTERFACE, column MDSNG_MODL_DESGTR.

like this it had created lot of recored
MDSNG_MODL_DESGTR is not CLOB but this is also errored out.

Unless you specify a maximum data length for a column in your SQL*Loader control file, the default is 255. So, you need to use something like the following for each column that may have values greater than 255 characters:

column_name CHAR (4000)
