Question: I can getting this error when using
utl_file and in LogMiner when I try to open a file on my
server:
ORA-01284: file string cannot be opened
What is the exact cause of the ORA-01284 error and how to I make
it so that Oracle can open this file?
Answer: This ORA-01284 error is caused when a
files does not exist, the file name is too long (> 32 characters) or
when the directory of file permissions do not allow the file to be
opened. Check that the file name is valid and that the file
and directory node has at least 750 permissions for the owner and
group. The docs note this on the ORA-01284 error:
ORA-01284: file string cannot be opened
Cause: The file or directory may not exist or may be inaccessible.
Pathname exceeds 256 characters.
Action: Ensure that the file
and the directory exist and are accessible.
