Running the xslsample procedure from 9i I get this error on random executions when running multiple times from one connection. Is there a patch for this or is this a known problem?
I'm trying to set up a procedure to take in a clob, parse it, transform it with a stylesheet, and then insert it to the database, but I'm having the problem demonstrated here by the Oracle provided xslsample procedure.

Here's some output - fails, then runs 3 times ok, then fails. All the calls are exactly the same.

BEGIN xslsample
( '/u01/apps/oracle/product/9.0.1/xdk/demo/plsql/parser', 'family
.xml','iden.xsl','n.xml','err' ); END;

PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.
