"It worked fine in development!"

I can't believe anyone would still say that.

Has your duhveloper traced the code in the current environment, to ensure that the offending piece of code is actually being executed?

        Subject:        DROP DEVELOPER not working

We have a developer here, installing a third party application, who claims one of his "delete campaign" process is hanging. I looked at the wait events, saw nothing, and asked him to politely to go look at the code. After much analysys, the developer now complains, that Oracle is not executing a drop table command at the end of the process, and hanging there. He claims he can drop the table from SQLPLUS.

I asked him to rerun the process. I noticed no wait events for that session
in v$session_wait when he claims the process is hanging. I see no DROP statements in the v$sqlarea. I did a 10046 trace, and the last statement in
the trace file is a select statement. I looked at the sql addresses from v$session, linked it to v$sqlarea and the sql_text shows the same select statement as is seen in the trace file. I see no exclusive locks on the said table. I conclude that the application is not sending a DROP statement
to Oracle for execution. He claims that cannot be the case. They have done the same installation in a test environment and it worked fine. The jury seems to be taking sides. I scream SOS. What more should I be doing? And Does an Oracle 10046 trace write into the trace file after the statement has executed?

Thanks
Raj
