Calling BTEQ from task scheduler - teradata

I created a .bteq script that looks like below:
.logmech LDAP;
.logon WM1/u0s000y,pwd;
SQL script here
.logoff;
And the above script is called in .bat file using below command:
BTEQ < Trial.bteq
But when i run this using windows task scheduler, it is throwing me a prompt asking me to select a program to run the BTEQ script. Looks like the scheduler does not know what program to use to run the BTEQ script.
What should I do to make the scheduler use teradata client for executing BTEQ script?
Thanks,


Batch call should probably be:
type Trial.bteq | bteq

To execute shell script from Sql prompt

I have one shell script test.sh that displays 'WELCOME' and kept in unix server /home/xxx/
Now, I want to execute this from Sql prompt.
I tried with some code with sys priviledge.but could work and getting error like ORA-29540: class does not exist
and I think there is error while executing shell command.
Here, I have created all objects in the database.
can any one help me on this please ?.

So, what I understand is you need to execute a shell script from sql prompt.
From the SQL*Plus prompt, do !sh script_name. (! is used to temporarily exit out of SQL*Plus and execute a shell command)
I created a sample.sh file on the home directory and it contains echo "welcome";
I started SQL*Plus and did
SQL> !sh sample.sh
The output is welcome
Also, when you get an ORA error, it is generally an Oracle error.

How to execute OLEload script from cmd

I had builded .amj script from Teradata OLELoad GUI which connects to access and load data
to Teradata ?
I was able to successfully run the script using OLELoad GUI Utility.
Is there a way to run .amj file from command prompt ?
Thanks.

When you launch the script with OLELoad you have to use a TTU as Fastload, Bteq or whatever. You can do the same from the command line. You just have to call the TTU you choose (for example Fastload) with your script in the parameter section.
Example:
Bteq.exe < Your_script.txt
You mention that you are using an amj file. That file must be referred into your script.

You should be able to reference the .AMJ file as part of an INMOD on some of the Teradata Utilities. Refer to the Teradata Tools and Utilities Manual for the Teradata OLE DB Access Module here for examples.

Executing an script with crontab returns 127 error code

I am executing a script manually on my UNIX system manually, it runs successfully and updated required records in ORACLE database. How ever when I exwcute the same script with crontab my process exits with the error code 127.
On analysing further, I got there is some problem in these statements.
LOGFILE=sachin
ORALOGIN=abc/abc#abcd
cmd='sqlplus ${ORALOGIN} < SQLS >> ${SVC_HOME}/LOGFILES/${LOGFILE}.date +%Y-%m-%d';
eval $cmd
Please suggest a solution

Are you sure that ${ORALOGIN} and ${LOGFILE} are valid ENV variables when cron executes the script?
Sometimes scripts that work for users don't work for cron because cron executions don't have all the ENV variables that users have.

In the interactive enviroment do
env | grep ORACLE
Long time since I've used sqlplus, but I recall it required some environment variables to function (ORACLE_HOME?) and I'm suspecting your cron job environment does not have these set.
