Mohammed,

Your email inspired my to try it on local database.

After starting up a 9.2 database on my laptop, I ran the query.

It did indeed create the file.

The sqlplus session appears to be hung.

The instance is still up though, as I can login from another CMD window.

Next I tried running the query on a remote 9.2.0,3 instance on a Win2k server.

It's running SAP, but as it is our test server it is generally safe crash it without
repercussions.

Which is exactly what happened. The query crashed the instance, killed the service.

Agreed, it is a dangerous bug.

Jared

Hmmmm.....

Oracle 9.2.0.3 on Win2K, shutdown the instance and the Oracle service.

Pretty serious bug to me.
