I'm not sure what you want to accomplish, but this is expected behavior:
- the command "set" is not SQL, it's a command that only has a meaning within the Oracle "SQL*Plus" tool, where it's used to configure the client behavior.
- dbms_output is for sending messages to the Oracle console, not to generate data. FME does not support dbms_output messages.
Please tell us what you need, then perhaps we can point you in the right direction.

I am trying to run a plsql script from SQL Creator(SQL statement) in FME. I have connected to my oracle db with connection in SQL Creator as Oracle spatial object.
My script looks like (Can't post the entire script),
set serveroutput on;
declare
var1 er1;
curr_dev varchar2(100);
several variables declared here..
begin
some code ...here
-- Finally get the output
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('Total number of fibers : ' || fibersCount);
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('Total number of fibers with Pencil Filter : ' || fibersWithPencilFilter );
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('% of fibers with Pencil Filter : ' || Round(fibersWithPencilFilter * 1.0/fibersCount,3) || ' %' );
end;
After running this code, I get an error ->
An error occurred while accessing a table result for feature type `';
message was `Execution of statement `SET SERVEROUTPUT ON;
BEGIN [entire code] END;' did not succeed; error was `ORA-00922: missing or invalid option'.
Is there any other alternative for this> How can I get the results from oracle database into FME.

Please guide me for an alternative way to get results into FME from Oracle? Do I need to change my script?
You cannot execeute PL SQL in FME, only regular SQL.
There is more information about the differences between PL SQL and SQL here: https://www.guru99.com/sql-vs-pl-sql.html
So basically your only solution is to rewrite your script as regular SQL. If the script contains logic that cannot be directly implemented in SQL, you can probably achieve the same thing using one or several SQLExecutors in conjunction with FME transformers such as the Tester etc.

Thank you @david_r. This was really helpful. Now I have a clear direction.
