I checked...had another DBA (rich) check. And the path was there and it was not in the directory.
It was a "Am I crazy....??" moment this morning. THere was a hint of a bug in Metalink forum about not writing to the alert log and not writing the trace file. hmmm....more digging. -----Original Message----- Sent: Friday, June 06, 2003 3:35 PM To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L I've never had to set an event to get a deadlock trace file. The fact that the alert log indicates a trace file tells me that it wrote (or thinks it wrote) the file. I just tested this on a 9.2 Win2k plain vanilla db and it created the trace file as expected. I am well known for mixing up words in strings, so I always doublecheck the file path and name. Could the device that includes the udump directory be full? -- Daniel W.
