Currently Executing statement not available in Trace file- Oracle 10g [message #260387]

Hi,

I am using Oracle 10g R2 on Linux.

I am tracing session(tkprof) which is executing procedure with many sql queries and DML statements in it.

In the start of the procedure we have a problematic sql statement.

By the time i start tracing the session, the sql query is fired and when i open the trace file i found all the statements excluding the first one, which started EXECUTING by the time i start tracing.

I can not change to code to put dbm_lock.sleep before, or execute immediate 'alter session.. or execute the query from outside

However since many times i faced this problem, i want to know, Is it a normal behavoir of SQL tracing that, currently executing is not recorded in the Trace file? Is there any way around to get it recorded in the trace file?

Thanks and Regards,
OraSaket.

Yes

Start the trace before the query starts to execute.

Thanks Michel.

I wasn't knowing this

In fact i was thinking that i am missing something at my end while enabling the trace.

If you have a look at trace file you see there are lines for
- parse
- execute
- fetches
and between them for waits and at the end, for execution plan
If you start the trace after the parse you don't have parse lines and so on.
tkprof ignores a SQL statement if the trace is not complete for it.

If the problem is important enough, you can also ask the DBA to switch tracing on for the entire database.
