UTL_FILE-Package

Hi all of you!

I´m experiencing problems using the UTL_FILE package. Creating textfiles isn´t a problem, but reading textfiles. ORA always reports "error opening file". I´ve checked the rights and stuff (Unix) and it´s always ASCII files.

The only file that works is the ones ORA created. "Foreign" files get always rejected. I´ve tried with CR and CR/LF at the end of every line.

Does ORA always have to be owner of the files, or is it enough to have rights on them?

Is there a difference between a file created using UTL_FILE or a foreign plain ASCII file?

Please help me?

Regards,
