How about trying v$session_wait and v$session_event? That should tell you
what it is waiting for.

Hi all,
I had a developer come to me yesterday and tell me his session had hung,
and sure enough it had, he was executing an INSERT into a table with 5
columns. Oracle was just sitting there, but all the other sessions
logged into the database were fine. I got the SQL out of the SQL Area
and ran it in one of my own SQL*Plus windows, and sure enough it got
stuck for me too. The statement was part of a transaction that inserted
and updated about 8 tables, and this happens on the 3000th or so
transaction in that session. We killed that session and restarted the
application, and it was fine until it happened again.
How would I go about diagnosing something like this? A couple of the
columns were from sequences, and I verified that these were OK. The
others were just text inserted into VARCHAR2s.
Thanks,
g
