Home -> Community -> Usenet -> c.d.o.server -> why cant I spool <filename> with a variable?
I know I have done this before, but I dont know why this is not working
and I cant find my old script where I did this, perhaps someone here can
point out the obvious for me...
I want to run a script every X minutes for awhile tomorrow morning for about 1 hour, and I want the output spooled to a file with a timestamp, simple enough so I write the following script called log_usage.sql:
spool &TS.log;
@@temp_usage.sql;
spool off;
I keep getting the "SP2-0332 cannot create spool" file error, not a matter of permissions etc as I can spool to a file fine without the variable (this is a windows machine as well)
what am I missing here?
