Error in the alert Log

rsar001Aug 4 2009 — edited Aug 4 2009
Hi There,
Recently I started seeing these errors in the alert log for one of the databases:

Tue Aug 04 05:05:00 2009
Errors in file c:\oracle\product\10.2.0\admin\xxxxxx\bdump\xxxxxx_j000_6104.trc:
ORA-12012: error on auto execute of job 130961
ORA-27370: job slave failed to launch a job of type EXECUTABLE
ORA-27300: OS system dependent operation:accessing execution agent failed with status: 109
ORA-27301: OS failure message: The pipe has been ended.
ORA-27302: failure occurred at: sjsec 9
ORA-27303: additional information: The pipe has been ended.


So, I tried looking at the trace file associated with the error, and here is what I get:


$ cat ebcd01_j000_6104.trc

I'm not sure what job is causing this as there is no reference and also not sure how to resolve this issue!! How can I properly trace back these errors? Any ideas or tips to what should I do?

I'm running 10.2.0.3 database on windows 2003 server.

Thanks

Your pipe burst.

Restart the s/w that was reading data from Oracle's pipe.

I found the problem.. the executable job was referring to a none existing batch file..

I have refreshed the database from production some time ago and the jobs I have setup are referring to production scripts and paths (which we didnt have on dev)..

This is now resolved.


Thanks
