Re: Memory Coredump

can You look into dmesg and /etc/rc.log for malloc errors reported by dld.sl?

If there's none showing up, this probably is not a memory problem.

You could go ahead by running tusc on the process before it dies.

Hi,

Start by doing a
# file core
it will tell you what made it abort...


All the best

Take a look at your /etc/syslog/syslog.log for any issues. Also, run #ldd sqlplus to see shared libraries usage.

Try to read your coredump file to analyse the problem:$strings core_file|more

Re: Memory Coredump

Check memory usage after login su - oracle with top command.

Check the error logs in syslog and debug messages for sqlplus execution. I hope you may get command messages on executing sqlplus. pls post that.

hth.

Easy to suggest when don't know about the problem!
