UTL_FILE.OPEN problems

[Candy Robinson]

I have created a directory for the path name I use for a UTL_FILE.OPEN
call, but when I run my call I get error ORA-29280 invalid directory
path. What am I failing to do? Thanks for your help,

Candy

Re: UTL_FILE.OPEN problems

the exact directory path must be listed in the INIT.ORA file under UTL_FILE
parameter, ie:
utl_file_dir = c:\oracle\utl_f ile\oex
