  • That is how statements can be entered over multiple lines. To run your query end a line with a semi-colon ;. Commented Aug 8, 2018 at 18:07
  • @Brian ; is just the default sqlterminator, although to be fair nobody ever changes it. The / character doesn't change though. Commented Aug 8, 2018 at 23:22

Can you try using statement terminator, i.e. ; at the end of statement. Something like 

select sysdate from dual;

sqlplus prompt expect multi-line query if you are not giving the query terminator and shows number. Hence you were getting 2 as 2nd line number.
