RE: Catching errors on inserts

Gogala

        Thanks for the tip this seems like just what I'm looking for, however I must be doing something wrong as no errors are getting written to my <SID>alrt.log

Im running oracle 8.16 server on win2kpro (this is a development database)

I just got around to running/testing this from my post last week

I do
SQL> alter session set events='0001 trace name errorstack forever, level 10';

Session altered.

Then I run the offending insert script which show errors being thrown

I check the <SID>alrt.log in BDUMP dir and all it show are my regular .ORA logs being written

  Current log# 1 seq# 3241 mem# 0:
D:\DB_TRACK2DATA\ORADATA\LTRACK2\LOG1LTRACK2.ORA Thread 1 advanced to log sequence 3242
  Current log# 2 seq# 3242 mem# 0:
D:\DB_TRACK2DATA\ORADATA\LTRACK2\LOG2LTRACK2.ORA Thread 1 advanced to log sequence 3243

Also checked the <SID>alrt.log in Oracle\home\database Nothing written there

What am I missing?

Also If you have a extra min how can I substitute the error message?

Thanks for your help
