SQL*Loader-00307: Warning: conflicting lengths number and
number specified for column string table string



SQL*Loader-00307: Warning: conflicting lengths number and number specified for column string table ..

Answer / guest

Cause: The SQL*Loader control file specifies two different
lengths for the named column. There are three ways to
specify the length of a field: --with the POSITION keyword:
POSITION(1:3) -- with the length specifier: CHAR(6) -- with
the implied length of a datatype; for example, INTEGER -- A
conflict could occur between any two of these specifications
(or among all three, but only two are shown). A common cause
of this error is the specification of some numeric datatype,
such as INTEGER, when the numeric external form is intended
(INTEGER EXTERNAL). The external form consists of character
data, so it is considerably longer than the numeric form,
which consists of binary data.

Action: No action is necessarily required, because
SQL*Loader uses only one of the lengths. Check the log file
under the heading "Len" in the table-description section to
see which length was used. Adjusting the SQL*Loader control
file to produce uniform length specifications will remove
the warning.
