Thanks for the response. I'm now running a script every 15 minutes to
count the number of triggers in the database. My phone started
ringing early this AM with users getting "Oracle Connection Lost"
errors as they were using the app. After checking the log from the
script, I lost one around 10:30 last night, and one around 6:45 this
AM. The only corresponding activity I can see is that a user logged
into the front-end app at 10:37 PM and another at 6:39 AM. Between
that time, multiple other users also logged in without incident, but
those were the only ones in that 15-minute window, so I'm thinking
it's just a coincidence. I, too, was completely baffled and doubleand
triple-checked it the first time I detected it, but it's
definitely happening. I would really love to know if this is the
cause or just another symptom to my recent spate of problems. We've
had extreme problems for the last several weeks, but I only found this
part last Thursday.
Could you educate me about auditing or point me to a site that has more info? I tried doing a search and come up with thousands of hits and am not quite sure what I'm looking for. Thank you again. Received on Mon Sep 09 2002 - 09:42:05 CDT
