Hi All,
A tester has come across a problem testing an SQL script. The script
contains an anonymous block which loops through a cursor, writing lines to
an output file (using UTL_FILE.PUT_LINE) and deleting rows from a table.
The tester is attempting to test failure of the script midway through
execution. To do this they are using "alter system kill session 'xx,
yy';". Unfortunately when they do this they receive the following error
hundreds of times...
.......
SP2-0642: SQL*Plus internal error state 2167, context 4294967294:2:0
Unable to proceed

SP2-0642: SQL*Plus internal error state 2167, context 4294967294:2:0

Segmentation Fault(coredump)
Any ideas what might be causing this problem? Any other suggestions for
making the script fail midway through execution that might avoid this bug?
Also, since the script uses dbms_output.put_line to log some progress
messages, can they still expect these to appear after the session is
killed?
Thanks in advance,
Mark.
PS: Oracle is 8.1.7.4.0 (EE) on Solaris, script is being executed via
SQL*Plus 8.1.7.0.0 on Solaris also.
