Line 21 of your original post is missing a `:

FLAG=`sqlplus -silent viewer/viewer@ltstprod << SQLEND >> ${L2S_RUN_LOG_FILE}

Hi sknake,
thanks a lot for hte quick response.

I already have ` symbol at he end of second SQLEND
at line 25 of my initial code tag

for your ref..

FLAG=`sqlplus -silent viewer/viewer@ltstprod << SQLEND >> ${L2S_RUN_LOG_FILE}set pagesize 0 feedback off verify off heading off echo offselect UNCONSTRAINED_PIECE_PART from ICMPINPUTCONTROL;exit;SQLEND`

[sknake]

I missed that. You need to instruct CSH that the command is split over multiple lines:

FLAG=`sqlplus -silent viewer/viewer@ltstprod << SQLEND >> ${L2S_RUN_LOG_FILE} \
set pagesize 0 feedback off verify off heading off echo off \
select UNCONSTRAINED_PIECE_PART from ICMPINPUTCONTROL; \
exit; \
SQLEND`

Thank you very much Scott, it worked! (but without spaces before \ symbol).

Thanks once again.

now Am stuck with another error in my code. Though the values in table column in Y, I get this error. The if condition is supposed to be true.
Error is:
[Y=Y]: No match

Change the format of your if statement:

sk:/tmp> set FLAG="Y"
sk:/tmp> echo $FLAG
Y
sk:/tmp> if ( ${FLAG} == Y ) echo "hi"
hi
sk:/tmp> if ( ${FLAG} == N ) echo "hi"
sk:/tmp>

Thanks a lot Scott!
it worked..

one more thing, am I connecting to sql more than once. but i use sqlend eachtime. am getting a message saying script FAILED at the end, though all sql stmts are executing completely.

Can you advise why is this?

My log file output is as below

I don't know. What is throwing the error -- the oracle client or the script? I'm not that familiar with csh or oracle. Sorry I couldn't be of any help on this one. You do have a comment in the middle of your SQL Statement though -- Maybe that is causing it to report the failure:

"Pre_s2a_leadtime.sh" 54 lines, 1243 characters
#!/bin/csh

# Check if program is already running and echo a time stamp for the log file
#log_start_chk $0 $$

At that point it isn't interpreting that line as shellscript but rather piping the contents to a file which is evident in:

SQL> SP2-0734: unknown command beginning "Running th..." - rest of line ignored.

Table dropped.

Move that comment above the >>file and see if that cures your issue
