way that external error messages do (for example, “ORA-00942: table or view does not exist”), it is difficult to assess the seriousness of the error and whether it is cause for concern. This column explains what you can do to assess some ORA-600 or ORA-7445 errors and identify solutions. ORA-600 or ORA-7445: What Is the Difference? ORA-600 is a catchall message that indicates an error internal to the database code. The key ora 600 lookup tool on metalink point to note about an ORA-600 error is that it is signaled when a code check fails within the database. At points throughout the code, Oracle Database performs checks to confirm that the information being used in internal processing is healthy, that the variables being used are within a valid range, that changes are being made to a consistent structure, and that a change won’t put a structure into an unstable state. If a check fails, Oracle Database signals an ORA-600 error and, if necessary, terminates the operation to protect the health of the database. The first argument to the ORA-600 error message indicates the location in the code where the check is performed; in the example above, that is ktfbtgex-7 (which indicates that the error occurred at a particular point during tablespace handling). The subsequent arguments have different meanings, depending on the particular check. An ORA-7445 error, on the other hand, traps a notification the operating system has sent to a process and returns that notification to the user. Unlike the ORA-600 error, the ORA-7445 error is an unexpected failure rather than a handled failure. The Oracle function in which that notification signal is received is usually, from Oracle Database 10g onward, contained in the ORA-7445 error message itself. For example, in the error

Introduction ora 600 error oracle 10g ORA-600/ORA-7445/ORA-700 Error Look-up Tool Introduction Oracle trap errors and gives them a specific error number. Looking up this error number in the Database Error Messages manual will typically give you an indication of the http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/issue-archive/2011/11-sep/o51support-453463.html cause of the error and the action necessary to fix it. In addition to trapping specific errors, Oracle also has some catch-all error messages that are issued when something unexpected happens, the most important being the following. ORA-00600: internal error code, arguments: [string], [string], [string], [string], [string], [string], [string], [string], [string], [string], [string], [string] ORA-07445: exception encountered: core dump [string] [string] [string] [string] [string] [string] ORA-00700: soft internal error, https://oracle-base.com/articles/misc/ora-00600-ora-07445-ora-00700-how-to-diagnose-and-fix-them arguments: [string], [string], [string], [string], [string], [string], [string], [string], [string], [string], [string], [string] These may be caused by something trivial, but they could also indicate something disastrously wrong has happened. It's impossible to tell by just looking at the error message and the description in the Database Error Messages manual. This article explains what you should do if you encounter one of these types of messages. ORA-600/ORA-7445/ORA-700 Error Look-up Tool You should typically use the following process. Log on to My Oracle Support. Go to the ORA-600/ORA-7445/ORA-700 Error Look-up Tool.

Click the "Lookup Error" button. Read the popup message and take the appropriate action. The popup will contain one of two types of messages. If the issue has been encountered before, the popup will usually include a reference to a support note that will explain how to fix it. This may be a manual configuration change, or the application of a patch. If the issue has not been encountered before, you will be asked to raise a new Support Request (SR) s
