please read OraFAQ Forum Guide, especially "How to format your post?" section.
Make sure that lines of code do not exceed 80 characters when you format.

What is the length of the column j_name in the table test_data? You can run into problems if the data your are loading exceeds either the size of the column in the table or the size in the control file. If you do not specify a size in the control file, then the default is 255. This size is prior to any trimming. You can specify a larger size in your control file, such as:

J_NAME CHAR(1000) "UPPER(TRIM(:J_NAME))"

Good to keep this in mind.
