RE: ORA-03113: end-of-file on communication channel

Agreed... OWS confessed to me that 3113's sometimes behave as catch-all error message which in effect means "something's wrong." Generally it's a network problem but not always. Check out chapter 12 of the Net8 admin guide. You can do a level 16 trace and use trcasst to try to determine the root cause. You may want to have your network dweebs review the output of trcasst. They'll need to refer to the "Using the Trace Assistant to Examine Your Trace Files" section to help them interpret the output of trcasst. I once struggled with this for 2 weeks before the problem was solved.

Good luck,
Steve Orr

Hi !

3113 is bit different from other oracle errors. Basically this message is generated from the client side (where as most of the other messages are from the rdbms kernel at the server side).

You can not set events or some other diagnostic tools to get the systemstate/processstate dumps during this errors.

This may be a network problem. Check with your Network guys and tell them there **IS** some issue in the network (to oracle) and ask thm to fix that.

By Anychance are you connecting across firewalls/ or WAN?
