Hello,
@Charlotte
Could the TO parameter be missing ? Let´s analyze the error message and
the syntax from the command.
"A missing FROM or TO clause uses the current SQL*Plus connection"
I think TO is mandatory, even if using a create table.
"usage: COPY FROM <db> TO <db> <opt> <table> { (<cols>) } USING <sel>"
again, it could be: COPY FROM @DB1 *TO* @db2 using create
test_table select * from dual;
In all your examples, the TO parameter is not there.
" SQL> copy from
/@(DESCRIPTION=(LOAD_BALANCE=OFF)(FAILOVER=ON)(CONNECT_TIMEOUT=10)(ADDRESS_LIST=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=tcp)(HOST=source_host1))(PORT=1521))(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=tcp)(HOST=source_host2)(PORT=1521))(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=tcp)(HOST=source_host3)(PORT=1521)))(CONNECT_DATA=(SERVICE_NAME=SOURCEDB)))
create test_table using select * from dual; "
Maybe you can try it, obeying the syntax from "usage: COPY FROM <db>
TO <db> <opt> <table> { (<cols>) } USING <sel>"
SQL> copy from
/@(DESCRIPTION=(LOAD_BALANCE=OFF)(FAILOVER=ON)(CONNECT_TIMEOUT=10)(ADDRESS_LIST=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=tcp)(HOST=source_host1))(PORT=1521))(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=tcp)(HOST=source_host2)(PORT=1521))(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=tcp)(HOST=source_host3)(PORT=1521)))(CONNECT_DATA=(SERVICE_NAME=SOURCEDB)))
*TO* @DESTDB (or @description whatever) *USING *create test_table
using select * from dual;
So, you can try it.
regards,
angelo

Thanks Jeff.
I've tried both without success. Here's the commands and output I've
tried (same result both with and without the -oci flag):

Connected.

Connected.

I’m honestly not sure..in your copy command are you using a fully
qualified jdbc URL that contains all the necessary wallet info, or are you
relying on an OCI (thick) connection for an $ORACLE_HOME that already has
TLS configured?

Hello Everyone,
Just a quick question - is the Oracle wallet supported by the COPY command
in SQLcl? I can't get it to work but I'm not sure if it's not supported
or if I'm just doing something wrong.
Thank You!
Charlotte
