I am runing SQL Loader using the sqlldr command with a control file to load data into a table. The data is not getting loaded, and I can not find a log file that will tell what the problem is. Can anyone tell me where to find this log?

In the same directory / folder from which you invoked the sqlldr.

Thanks Mahesh,
I invoked it from the "run" window. I looked in the directory that the executable resides and I could not find it. Do you know what the name of the file is so I can search the directories for it?

If you did not specify a name for the log file, then there isn't one. If you are not sure of your default paths, then specify complete paths, as in the follwing example:

d:\oracle\ora92\bin\sqlldr.exe scott/tiger control=c:\oracle\your_control_file.ctl log=c:\temp\your_log_file.log

If you are still having problems, then post a copy and paste of the exact command that you are using, your control file, your table structure, and a sample of your data file.

I have decided to run this from a Command Prompt window so as to see the results on the screen. This is what I have gotten:

Why does it think I am sending multile control files?

You have a comma between your control file specification and your log file specification that does not belong there. Also, you have spaces on both sides of one of the equal signs that are not allowed. Please see the corrected command line below.

C:\Documents and Settings\Azriel>sqlldr SYSTEM/PASSWORD control="C:\Documents and Settings\Azriel\My Documents\Computer\Scripts\load_trades_tmp.ctl" log="c:\
oracle\product\10.2.0\LOGS\sqlldr_110205.log"
