HELP!!
I've been struggling with an error message I get when I write
to a file on a Sun Solaris UNIX box. It's a user-defined exception on UTL_FILE -
"Write error". I am getting these errors on approximately one in every 100
records I try to write, other records I am able to write without problems.
- I am using version 8.0.5.
- The error is consistent in one sense, that the same records produce the error when I re-run my package.
- However, there is nothing obvious about these records that make them appear to make them special.. some are short, (maybe 20 characters), some are long (a few thousand characters), some have special characters, some do not, and the same is true of the records I have successfully written out.
- All records are written from a single function in the package.
My understanding of the error is that the UNIX file system
does not like something about some of the records I am trying to write. Does
anyone have any idea what this might be? Or have some idea about how I might go
about tracking down the problem?
Thanks!
Bennett
