RE: help on ORA-03113: end-of-file on communication channel

 

  

Hi Roger,

You need to run the 9.2.0.5 patch set. There is a serious bug under linux
related to xdb below 9.2.0.5. Check your admin directories, and you should
find core files at the same time you are seeing 03113 errors.

Good Luck!
Chris

Hi Chris,

Sorry for my intruding to ask for help:

I am running the following query: (under Oracle version 9.2.0.4) on Linux
Red Hat
Select extractValue(value(d), '/InformationSystemAcronymName') as
SUBSYSTEM_NAME , SUBSYSTEM_ID, FACILITY_ID
,
p.XML_Instance.extract('//FacilitySite/FacilitySiteName/text()').getStringva
l() as FACILITY_NAME
, PENDING_ACTION, PENDING_MSG, PENDING_TIMESTAMP
from SS_PENDINGXML p ,
table (xmlsequence(extract(p.XML_INSTANCE,
'//EnvironmentalInterestDetails/InformationSystemAcronymName'))) d

and I am getting following error:
java.sql.SQLException: ORA-03113: end-of-file on communication channel

However the query is running OK under Oracle on Window 2003 server.

Any suggestion is appreciated.

Subject: RE: CONTEXT

A text index creates several objects - token tables, separate indexes, etc.,
that are used to support the domain index. For a table this large, you will
need to manipulate the storage options for a text index to ensure you are
not choking performance on particular table space.

If you are indexing plain text in a size limited field, this is the ideal
case with respect to performance. The internal filter in Oracle is slow and
fat, which is why I usually write my own filter in C when I need to process
documents like HTML or even PDFs. However, for plain text, there really is
no filtering, which is why it gives the best performance. If you need to
accept special tokens or text combinations that are normally filtered, you
will need to manipulate lexer options as well. It is very important that
you read the documentation carefully.

The text engine is feature rich and reasonably robust, and it allows you to
do things you cannot do with a like query. For example, it is always case
insensitive, it can search on stubs, etc. *HOWEVER* if the number of
keywords accepted by a user for a search is small (3 or 4 at most), you
should time how long a dynamic LIKE query takes. If the LIKE query returns
quickly enough, I wouldn't bother with a context/text index.

One of the drawbacks of domain indexes is performance. I have had to use
hints and other tricks much more with domain indexes - spatial and text,
than I have had to with other types of queries. Domain indexes are not
common, and the optimizer sometimes gets confused. This why I would
recommend testing LIKE queries first.

If the text is mixed case, you can use a function based index to ignore case
(8i or above), or you can use the case insensitive character set for sorting
and comparison (10g only). I would *not* use a text index just to get case
insensitivity.

Good Luck!
Chris

Hi Gurus... my boss asked to me to evaluate implementation of context..
there is a way.. or some rules to evaluate this without real test?
I work in a bank and I can't simply "test".. I have to move lots of people
to enable context so.. I need to know BEFORE if it can be helpful..
(tables with 3.000.000 records field to be indexed is a varcha2(2000) and
people via web have to serch keyword inside this field)
