DBMS_SCHEDULER intermittent extjob errors
Hi All,
We have some scheduled jobs which call external OS commands and they have been working fine for many years. In the last two months they have started to fail intermittently with the following error:-
ORA-12012: error on auto execute of job "USERNAME"."PACKAGE_NAME"
ORA-01086: savepoint 'SP1' never established in this session or is invalid
ORA-06512: at "USERNAME.PACKAGE_NAME", line ##
ORA-27370: job slave failed to launch a job of type EXECUTABLE
ORA-27300: OS system dependent operation:accessing job scheduler service failed with status: 233
ORA-27301: OS failure message: No process is on the other end of the pipe.
