Re: Block Insert fails...

Hi Charles,

I've used block inserts using PreparedStatement methods addBatch() and
executeBatch() similar to you and it worked ok - although I used hundreds
rather than thousands of inserts. I've never seen a reference to a batch
size limitation.

Does rerun with fewer insert records work?

What driver are you using - does it support batch statements?

Also, try returning the executeBatch to an integer array - to check the
success or failure of each insert:

int[] upCounts = ps.executeBatch();

44,000 elements is a bit much but you could run on a smaller scale.

Regards,

Keith

So nobody has any thoughts on this?

Is anybody out there using block inserts?

Thanks!

All,

I've got the following code, in a Java program I'm running from QShell

try {
Statement stmt = sqlConn.createStatement();
ResultSet rs = stmt.executeQuery("select select varchar05,
intfld, varchar02 " +
" from
CINTAS.cadmin.sometable");

PreparedStatement ps = i5Conn.prepareStatement("INSERT INTO
CINTASDTA.INACTCAB VALUES(?,?,?)");

while (rs.next()) {
ps.setString(1,rs.getString(1));
ps.setLong(2,rs.getLong(2));
ps.setString(3,rs.getString(3));
ps.addBatch();
}

ps.executeBatch();

} catch (SQLException e) {
System.out.println(e.getMessage());
}
}

When the "use block insert" property is set to true, it fails with a
message:
"Error occurred in SQL Call Level Interface - HY009 "

There's a job log created which has the following:
SQ99999 Diagnostic 30 12/16/08 08:53:35.935112

If I change "use block insert" to FALSE, it works fine.

Also, I can leave "use block insert" to TRUE and have it work if instead

of

batching the inserts, I do them one at a time:
try {
Statement stmt = sqlConn.createStatement();
ResultSet rs = stmt.executeQuery("select varchar05, intfld,
varchar02 " +
" from
CINTAS.cadmin.sometable");

PreparedStatement ps = i5Conn.prepareStatement("INSERT INTO
CINTASDTA.INACTCAB VALUES(?,?,?)");

while (rs.next()) {
ps.setString(1,rs.getString(1));
ps.setLong(2,rs.getLong(2));
ps.setString(3,rs.getString(3));
ps.executeUpdate();
}
} catch (SQLException e) {
System.out.println(e.getMessage());
}
}

But I think when the inserts are not batched they are not blocked

either...

Does anybody know what I'm doing wrong?

There's just over 44,000 rows being inserted, perhaps that's to many for
one batch?

Thanks!
