does return the data you need in sqlplus? But issuing the SPOOL command before the select statement, is not collecting that data into the specified file.
Did you try using the SPOOL command then issuing the select statement in SQLPLUS then turn the SPOOL OFF and look for the file? (i.e. do everything inside SQLPLUS not just the select statement).
It's puzzling, because your command looks correct, though, I would set your linesize and pagesize before turning on the SPOOL command otherwise you would see those commands in the output, assuming you get output to the file.
Does the underlying OS user have write privileges to where you are tyring to write the file? I'd assume you'd get an error if you didn't, but it's worth checking. Assuming the OS user is 'oracle' you should have write privileges to an /app/oracle ... directory structure, but maybe you've logged on under your own login and you don't. If you're using your own OS login, try spooling it to your own home directory.

pppoe-connect
PPPOE-CONNECT(8) System Manager's Manual PPPOE-CONNECT(8)NAME
pppoe-connect - Shell script to manage a PPPoE link
SYNOPSIS
pppoe-connect [config_file]
pppoe-connect interface user [config_file]
DESCRIPTION
pppoe-connect is a shell script which manages a PPPoE connection using the Roaring Penguin user-space PPPoE client. If you omit con-
fig_file, the default file /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-ppp0 is used. If you supply interface and user, then they override the
Ethernet interface and user-name settings in the configuration file.
Note that normally, you should not invoke pppoe-connect directly. Instead, use pppoe-start to bring up the PPPoE connection.
pppoe-connect first reads a configuration file. It then brings up a PPPoE connection. If the connection ever drops, a message is logged
to syslog, and pppoe-connect re-establishes the connection. In addition, each time the connection is dropped or cannot be established,
pppoe-connect executes the script /etc/ppp/pppoe-lost if it exists and is executable.
The shell script pppoe-stop causes pppoe-connect to break out of its loop, bring the connection down, and exit.
TECHNICAL DETAILS
pppoe-connect uses the following shell variables from the configuration file:
ETH The Ethernet interface connected to the DSL modem (for example, eth0).
USER The PPPoE user-id (for example, b1xxnxnx@sympatico.ca).
PIDFILE
A file in which to write the process-ID of the pppoe-connect process (for example, /var/run/pppoe.pid). Two additional files ($PID-
FILE.pppd and $PIDFILE.pppoe) hold the process-ID's of the pppd and pppoe processes, respectively.
By using different configuration files with different PIDFILE settings, you can manage multiple PPPoE connections. Just specify the con-
figuration file as an argument to pppoe-start and pppoe-stop.
