Sorry - I should have been more specific with earlier versions - I was referring to 8.0 and (if memory serves) one of the 8.1.x's. I was pondering whether this had crept into 9 (although I would doubt it) Keep us posted on what happens :-) Cheers Connor --- Freeman, Robert [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Some comments... - some earlier versions of the db had job bugs where the next date was not correctly calculated and thus stopped running - typically threw an ora-600 or at least a trace file in bdump (as opposed to udump) - we're running about 50 jobs at various frequencies on 9013 and not

Connor, In our case the intervals were 5AM, 6AM and 12PM ... and it still didn't work. Perfstat was the biggest problem, I used to run it at 15 min intervals, and it would work for an hour or two and die unexpectedly without any message or trace file. Raj

We had the same situation and then we use cron that never fails. Now, we don't trust dbms_job ... I had a TAR open on that, but can't access it now. Raj __ Rajendra Jamadagni MIS, ESPN Inc. Rajendra dot Jamadagni at ESPN dot com

Dick, Thanks, and yes I understand both, but we had really bad luck with dbms_job which would stop working without any errors. OWS was unable to give a quick fix, and eventually it turned out that one of the parameters (I think job_queue_processes) was getting reset or something like that. We
