Check the files that you are running. They may have their own spool commands ________________________________ From: oracle-l-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:oracle-l-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Clay Colburn Sent: Tuesday, August 17, 2010 1:42 PM To: Oracle-L@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: spool creating empty file I am executing a file from within sqlplus that looks as follows: spool output.log set timing on set time on @/tmp/myfile.sql @/tmp/myfile2.sql spool off The output.log file is being created, but it does not have any contents. As sqlplus is running myfile.sql and myfile2.sql, I can see the output that it is generating on the screen, but the same output is not being written to the spool file. I know that this same method has worked before, but if someone could point me in a direction to look for what could potentially be the problem that would be great. Thanks.
