Gogala Thanks for the tip this seems like just what I'm looking for, however I must be doing something wrong as no errors are getting written to my <SID>alrt.log
Im running oracle 8.16 server on win2kpro (this is a development database) I just got around to running/testing this from my post last week I do SQL> alter session set events='0001 trace name errorstack forever, level 10'; Session altered. Then I run the offending insert script which show errors being thrown I check the <SID>alrt.log in BDUMP dir and all it show are my regular .ORA logs being written EG Wed Aug 21 09:19:07 2002 Thread 1 advanced to log sequence 3240 Current log# 4 seq# 3240 mem# 0: D:\DB_TRACK2DATA\ORADATA\LTRACK2\LOG4LTRACK2.ORA Thread 1 advanced to log sequence 3241 Current log# 1 seq# 3241 mem# 0: D:\DB_TRACK2DATA\ORADATA\LTRACK2\LOG1LTRACK2.ORA Thread 1 advanced to log sequence 3242 Current log# 2 seq# 3242 mem# 0: D:\DB_TRACK2DATA\ORADATA\LTRACK2\LOG2LTRACK2.ORA Thread 1 advanced to log sequence 3243 Also checked the <SID>alrt.log in Oracle\home\database Nothing written there What am I missing? > alter session set events='0001 trace name errorstack > forever, level 10'; All "duplicate value" errors will then be > trapped in the alert.log file. You can always substitute your > own favorite error in place of 0001. > Also If you have a extra min how can I substitute the error message?
