FileReadAll has a limit of 2 Gbytes so it's not the cause of the problem.  Here is what you can do to find out why the job fails:  Turn on both "Trace enabled" and "Database Trace Enabled" options in the Tools/Options/Log menu.  Run the job and first check the script trace file script.log (in 24x7 installation directory). If the trace of the job looks OK check the database trace file c:\winnt\pbtrace.log (if you use Win 9x system, the file name is c:\windows\ptrace.log).  The database trace file should provide complete details on all executed SQL statements and complete database response. There you should be able to found why the SQL fails.  :  : Still using the second version of the 24x7 scheduler (v2.4.15), I decided,  : after having tested it on a local machine, to upgrade our (licensed)  : version from v2.4.13 to v2.4.15 (the latest patch before v3) downloaded  : from your website.  : All scripts seem to work fine, except that we're having trouble with one of  : the scripts that drops and creates tables in an Oracle database. The  : script is running fine since more than one year on the same computer.  : The script (see below) reads the table names from an INI file, sends through  : ODBC a "DROP TABLE" command (in relation to the table name to be  : handeled) and reads the CREATE command from a file. It then sends an SQL  : command through a DatabaseExecute command to the ORACLE database.  : When testing if the created table really exists, only one table from the  : nearly 25 tables to be manipulated doesn't want to be created.  : The Oracle Database Administrator has verified if an problem exists with the  : defined "spaces" like TableSpace, etc. Everything ok for him.  : The table that refuses to created can be created "by hand" using  : the same script with the help of and Oracle Utility  : The script file (INSERTION.SQL in this case) that is send to the Oracle  : database to create the table is a file of 3353 bytes.  : Our question : is the file size that is read through the FileReadAll  : statement limited ?? The variable that holds the contents of the file,  : seems to be complete.  : Any suggestions,  : Thanks for responding, it's an urgent problem  : Robbert de GROOT  : please respond to rdegroot@free.fr  : licence 00115-341445-04518  : *************************************************  : 1) DROP/DREATE script  : *************************************************  : //-----------------------------------------------------------------  : // Nom : JOB4  : // Creation : 7 novembre 2000  : // Dernier modification : 13 février 2001  : // Copyright : CREDOME (c) 2000-2001  : // Auteur : R. de GROOT  : // : Publicis Technology  : //-----------------------------------------------------------------  : DIM success, boolean  : DIM OkFlag, boolean  : DIM rows, number  : DIM numItemTable, number  : DIM numItemIndex, number  : Dim rows, number  : Dim counter, number  : DIM ReceiverMailAddress, string  : DIM SenderMailAddress, string  : DIM SenderPassword, string  : DIM buffer, string  : DIM bufferSQL, string  : DIM profile, string  : DIM Entry, string  : DIM Subject, string  : DIM Message, string  : DIM FileNameParams, string  : DIM dirSCRIPT, string  : DIM fileSCRIPT, string  : DIM TableName, string  : DIM ErrorMessage, string  : DIM CR, string  : DIM LF, string  : DIM CRLF, string  : DIM TraceFile, string  : DIM MessageTrace, string  : //-----------------------------------------------------------------  : //  : //-----------------------------------------------------------------  : Char (13, CR)  : Char (10, LF)  : ConcatEx (CR, LF, CRLF)  : // Vérification présence fichier parametres  : set FileNameParams, "i:\mpo\sumer\sqlload.ini"  : FileExists (FileNameParams, success)  : If (success, INIT, FIN_0)  : // Lecture parametres  : INIT: IniFileGetKey (FileNameParams, "Parametres",  : "TraceFile", TraceFile)  : Tracing (4, "DROP_CREATE", "Début", TraceFile)  : IniFileGetKey (FileNameParams, "Parametres",  : "ReceiverMailAddress", ReceiverMailAddress)  : IniFileGetKey (FileNameParams, "Parametres",  : "SenderMailAddress", SenderMailAddress)  : IniFileGetKey (FileNameParams, "Parametres",  : "SenderPassword", SenderPassword)  : IniFileGetKey (FileNameParams, "ORACLE", "profile",  : profile)  : IniFileGetKey (FileNameParams, "DROP_CREATE",  : "dirSCRIPT", dirSCRIPT)  : // Start procédure  : Send_Mail_Message ReceiverMailAddress, SenderMailAddress, SenderPassword,  : "24x7 scheduler : Début mise à jour base MPO", "Début mise  : à jour base MPO"  : // Connection Base de Données ORACLE  : DatabaseConnect (profile)  : // Lancement du traitement  : Set ErrorMessage, ""  : Set OkFlag, true  : Set numItemTable, 0  : LoopWhile (OkFlag, ENDLOOP_TABLE)  : Add (numItemTable, 1, numItemTable)  : // Recherche nom de la prochaine table  : ConcatEx ("Item_table", numItemTable, Entry)  : IniFileGetKey (FileNameParams, "Tables_ORACLE", Entry, TableName)  : IsEqual (TableName, "", success)  : If (success, EXIT_LOOP_TABLE, DO_TABLE)  : EXIT_LOOP_TABLE: Break  : // Création des TABLES  : DO_TABLE: ConcatEx (dirSCRIPT, "\\", TableName, ".sql",  : FileSCRIPT)  : FileExists (FileSCRIPT, success)  : If (success, CHECK_TABLE1, FINAL)  : CHECK_TABLE1: Table_Exist (TableName, profile, success)  : If (success, DROP_TABLE, CREATE_TABLE)  : // Destruction de la table  : DROP_TABLE: ConcatEx ("DROP TABLE ", TableName, bufferSQL)  : DatabaseExecute (bufferSQL, counter)  : // Création de la table  : CREATE_TABLE: FileReadAll (FileSCRIPT, bufferSQL)  : DatabaseExecute (bufferSQL, counter)  : // Vérification si la table a été créée  : Table_Exist (TableName, profile, success)  : If (success, DO_INDEX, ERROR_TABLE)  : ERROR_TABLE: ConcatEx (ErrorMessage, CR, LF, TableName, ErrorMessage)  : Continue  : // Création des INDEX su la table TABLENAME  : DO_INDEX: Set numItemIndex, 0  : LoopWhile (OkFlag, ENDLOOP_INDEX)  : Add (numItemIndex, 1, numItemIndex)  : // Construction nom complet fichier SCRIPT INDEX  : ConcatEx (dirSCRIPT, "\\", TableName, "_", numItemIndex,  : ".idx", fileSCRIPT)  : FileExists (FileSCRIPT, success)  : If (success, CREATE_INDEX, EXIT_LOOP_INDEX)  : EXIT_LOOP_INDEX: Break  : CREATE_INDEX: FileReadAll (FileSCRIPT, bufferSQL)  : DatabaseExecute (bufferSQL, counter)  : ENDLOOP_INDEX: ENDLOOP_TABLE: // Deconnection Base de Données ORACLE  : DatabaseDisConnect  : // Une erreur s'est produite ??
