RE: Unable to run catalog.sql

Another idea would be to set the SQLPATH variable in your registry (remember if you do this to TAKE A BACKUP OF THE REGISTRY FIRST).

First of all map the network drive (it looks like you already have anyway) so that it is assigned a drive letter (D:\ in your case), as you don't really want to use the absolute path..

Open regedit or regedt32, and navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/Oracle/<ORACLE_HOME>

and then either modify (if it is already there) or create a SQLPATH string, with a value of:

D:\Oracle\Ora81\RDBMS\ADMIN\catalog.sql

Maybe this will work?

This was a typo and I tried it again and got the same error message.

The absolute full path name is: My Network Places\Entire Network\Microsoft Windows Network\Tech
net\Proteus\ Oracle\Ora81\RDMS\ADMIN\catalog.sql The server name is Proteus.
I have run scripts to generate tablespaces referencing the D:\ drive and they worked OK.
Any ideas?

Ken,

Taking a look at what you are trying to run, you have the path wrong:

@D:\Oracle\Ora81\RDMS\ADMIN\catalog.sql

should be:

@D:\Oracle\Ora81\RDBMS\ADMIN\catalog.sql

                   ^
                   |

Will this work?

This is what I have tried at the SQL*Plus prompt. nic13> @D:\Oracle\Ora81\RDMS\ADMIN\catalog.sql SP2-0310: unable to open file "D:\Oracle\Ora81\RDMS\ADMIN\catalog.sql" Still get the error. Would this have anything to do with Telnet working or not? My Telnet connection between my client PC and the server doesn't work. Thanks,
Ken

It might be a PATH issue, try creating an entry in your PATH statement on *your PC* that has the full path to the directory that holds catalog.sql.

I have tried to run catalog.sql from the sql*plus command line and keep getting this error. sp2-0310 unable to open file "catalog.sql". I've use the full path name with the same results. catalog.sql is on my PC and the database is located on a server. I have run other commands from my client machine with no problems.
What appears to be the problem?
TIA
