RE: How to reproduce an ORA-7445?

Yup, been there. My stack wasn't found and there were no parameters listed for the error:

ORA-07445: EXCEPTION ENCOUNTERED: CORE DUMP [] [] [] [] [] [] ORA-7445 A brief core analysis didn't reveal anything to a nobody like me, other than it was the oracle executable that cored.

If our devs can't get the user to reproduce the problem and given that we're full-blown into ERP migration (ie. zero time), it looks like I won't have a whole lot of choice other than the feedback on the SR.

Of course a real BDBAFH would ping the SR every other week just to keep it from hard closing... ;)

Also, the ORA-600 and ORA-7445 lookup tool can be very useful, before you even open an SR.

Folks,

  ORA-07445 is raised when a core dump is being produced. Whatever the
600 error was that pushed this can be diagnosed without a repro case.
This is
classic Oracle support dodge and run...
