Hi

I have a shells script which invokes a SQL file. However even with AUTOCOMMIT OFF and on SQLERROR EXIT ROLLBACK. Sqlplus fails to rollback.

My sql file has 3 lines 3 are correct and 1 is incorrect. For example:
INSERT INTO TEST_ROUTING VALUES (24, 'ROUTING');
INSERT INTO TEST_ROUTING VALUES (25, 'ROUTING');
INSERT INTO TEST_ROUTING VALUES (26, 'ROUTING);

Lets say file is called 1.sql

My shell script invokes this SQL as follows: (Where $File1 = 1.sql)

$SQLPLUS_PATH/sqlplus -s /nolog <<-EOF>> ${LOGFILE}
connect $DB_USER/$Password1@$Database1
SET AUTOCOMMIT OFF
@$File1
WHENEVER SQLERROR EXIT ROLLBACK;
EOF

if [ $? != 0 ]
then
echo "The SQL failed. Please refer to the log for more information "
echo "Error code $?"
echo "8. Outside While "
while read $LINE
do
echo $LINE
done < $LOGFILE
fi

So tried SET AUTOCOMMIT, tried SQLERROR ROLLBACK and tried few variations.
And no posts seem to cover this very well.

Any thoughts

Underlined text says that file contains 4 lines, not 3.

Which one of them is incorrect? Why is it incorrect? How will Oracle know that it is incorrect?

Why should it rollback? A clean exit from SQL*Plus will cause an implied COMMIT. If you want to rollback, type "ROLLBACK".

You need to call WHENEVER SQLERROR EXIT ROLLBACK; before any errors, not after them.

Apologies. There are 3 lines. One is incorrect.

INSERT INTO TEST_ROUTING VALUES (26, 'ROUTING);

Notice the single quote at beginning of "ROUTING" and notice no closing '

This is a simple example, where users will pass in a SQL file only to a script.
Users are not SQL / DBA , hence they wont know how to rollback or commit.

You code says:
@$File1 
WHENEVER SQLERROR EXIT ROLLBACK; 

Substitute these two lines, i.e.
WHENEVER SQLERROR EXIT ROLLBACK; 
@$File1 

Any improvement?

[EDIT] After seeing Lalit Kumar B's message, I realized that I didn't see that I just reposted what Cookiemonster has already said. Sorry!
