Inconsistent cursor cache error still presisting

Hey I have asked this question before but no solution has been provided me. I have been facing a very serious problem. I have oracle 11g on windows 2003 on 64 bit machine. With 2 processor 8GB RAM. Sga/pga automatically features turn on and 6GB assign to memory_max_target, memory_target . My problem is when I run update 600 hundred statements in one go and every update statement update record between 1 to 30000 and after 20 records I use commit. But after 20 to 30 record oracle go down (shutdown) when i check alert log It advise to check Trace file and in trace file I got this error ORA-02103: PCC: inconsistent cursor cache (out-of-range cuc ref). I turn on my cache sharing to force but no way. Is there any other fast way to update records??
cursor_sharing string force
cursor_space_for_time boolean FALSE
open_cursors integer 300
session_cached_cursors integer 50
my update statement are following
Update jg_6july_dg0 Set Operator_code= '915724' where Operator_code= '015325';
Update jg_6july_dg0 Set Operator_code= '915715' where Operator_code= '015323';
.Update jg_6july_dg0 Set Operator_code= '915712' where Operator_code= '015374';
Cursor Caching I think is not a problem either it is a oracle bug or I’m doing something wrong. I can’t believe that oracle does not have solution for such little problem. My question is why oracle shutdown?? Waiting for you reply

sir no such error i got nothing. sir proces of rqasing SR is quite cumbersome. i'm stuck where SR first page ask Type of Problem it is hide how i set its value one more strange thing i have change the setting of SGA or PGA now the error in my alter log has been changed i have pasted here some part of alterlog plz check and told me what should i do now.

ORA-02103: PCC: inconsistent cursor cache

I have been hit by one error ORA-02103: PCC: inconsistent cursor cache (out-of-range cuc ref). it occur when user execute thousand of update statement in one go. I have place commit after 50 records. But problem is still there. It shutdown the oracle. I have to again startup oracle database. I’m running query from Toad. Server machine remotely connected with Toad using TNS. Why this error occur or plz guide what is the best way to update records. I have also used parallel Hint. Committing after 50 record reduce error occurrence but problem not solve completely

As per ora description:
Error: SQL 2103
Text: Inconsistent cursor cache (out-of-range CUC ref)
Cause: The precompiler generates a unit cursor entry (UCE) array. An element
in this array corresponds to an entry in the cursor cache (CUC). While
doing a consistency check on the cursor cache, SQLLIB found that the
UCE array contains an ordinal value that is either too large or less
than zero. This happens only if your program runs out of memory.
Action: Allocate more memory to your user session, then rerun the program. If
the error persists, call customer support for assistance.
How user is connected dedicated or shared? How much memory is used during update? Is it enough?
Is parameter open_cursors high enough?
And as You can see from error description - call Oracle support. Raise SR to Oracle - they will investigate and ask dump files and look through them and propose a solution.

"Inconsistent cursor cache. Out of range cursor" error on dual processor multi thread

I have a C++ with Pro*C++ COM object running on a Win2000 OS on
a dual processor Middleware. The program is being called by a
service in a multi threaded way. An oracle error like ORA-2103
and SQL-02103 will be generated after running the program. We've
tried putting mutex on every SQL statement in Pro*C and it works
but the systems became very very slow. We concluded that the
error might be cause by a collision of threads accessing the
same Table or different tables having foreign constraints. This
is so because the error keeps coming from a statement accessing
Table A and following errors comes from a Table B having a
foreign key on Table A.
Our only solution now is to put Mutex on Statements accessing
same tables or tables with foreign constraints but this will
make our system run very very slow. I dont know if the problem
is in our Oracle Database because we already upgraded our system
from 8.1.6 to 8.1.7. The wierd thing on this is that the system
is running smoothly without oracle errors on a SINGLE PROCESSOR
Middleware. Hope you can give me any insights on this problem.

Install cache error

I'm trying to install itunes 10.6 on windows 7 home premium. it downloads the software and starts to install. I receive an error: "an error occurred while attempting to create the directory c:/program data/apple/installer cache" I click retry several times and no luck so I have to click cancel and it rollsback the installation. I have downloaded a new copy of the installer from another computer and receive the same error. I dropped the UAC on the system to none. That did not work, it give me the same error. I have tried renaming the Installer Cache to a temp name and when installing again, I the error says it doesn't have the permissions to create the directory. I have gone into the control panel and attempted to repair bonjour, itunes, apple mobile device support, apple software update and quicktime and all of them have reported "The system cannot find the file specified." I have tried running the install package with the right click Run as Administrator and the install cache error still occurs. I have check the security on the file and it has my user name and full control on the parent and all items below.
When I plug in my iphone or ipod, it asks about updating to 5.1, I click download only. I then receive an error window "There was a problem downloading the software for the iphone or ipod. The network connection could not be established"
I don't know if the two problems are related. I'm at a stand still have have no other ideas of what to try next. What suggestions might you have to solve this problem?
Thanks for the help!
Joel

I tried to rename the apple computer folder to _old and I received another error with another really funky folder name that looked like a SID. I renamed that and reran.
Crikey. Probably that number (in the folder name) was the SQUID ("squished GUID") for the iTunes installation (or possibly one of the other associated components being installed). In addition to the error 5, that brings us to a total of three of the more exotic things that could possibly happen in this sort of file-access-problem context.
So, excellent work on your part getting past all that. Many thanks for reporting back with your resolution, too.

Error reading data from static cursor cache.

Hi,
Does anyone know what causes this error below. It just started happening out of the blue. I'm running Apache Tomcat 4.1 on Win 2000 server with MS SQL Server 2000 database.
Error:
java.sql.SQLException: [Microsoft][SQLServer JDBC Driver]Error reading data from static cursor cache.
Thanks,
TR

hi,
i had a similar sort of error, something along the lines of "error setting up static cursor cache" using the SQL JDBC drivers on Win2K. i deleted the file entries in the TEMP folder of c:\documents and settings\<user>\Local Settings\TEMP and everything was cool after it. i'm not sure what the exact issue is (probably something like maximum folder size had been reached). i ran the FileMon utility from www.sysinternals.com and it reported a DISK_FULL error on a temporary file being read by the process. to cut a long story short, everything is NOW cool.

Maximum open Cursors Excedded error - for every transaction

Hi All,
I am getting the maximum opn cursors exceeded error suddenly for every single db transaction i am trying to make in my application. this did not happen previously during my developemnt and testing phase.
I have a question here that i tried to google but failed to get satisfactory answer.:-
When we use a cursor in the stored procedure to fetch data, how to make oracle automatically close the cursors once the stored proc finishes executin. Or is there something i have to follow other with my current open cursors limit to ensure this problem does not happen?
Thanks,
Chaitanya

Hi Justin,
My oracle stored procs are called by java framework. In each place i was closing the connection object but there were a few places where i was not closing the resultset object which directly pointed to my oracle cursor.
I have closed the objects in such places and tried again but still i am getting the same error. Mit it be an instance where the oracle db is not allowing me to connect to it at all. Something like restarting it would help? Restarting the server where the oracle software is hosted.
Please excuse my blatant ignorance in this issue.
Thanks,
Chaitanya

Administration Tool Cache vs. Cursor Cache

Hi everyone,
Someone asked me what's the difference between the cache in the administration tool ( Manage->Cache) versus cursor cache (Settings -> Administrator -> Manage Sessions), and even though I've cleared them both many-a-time, I still am not sure the difference.
Can someone explain to me the difference between the two?
Thanks!
-Joe

Hi,
The cache in the administration tool is a file based cache on the OBIEE server which stores the results of database requests. This means that if a user makes a request the OBIEE server first checks the cache to see if the query has already been run and cached, or if a superset of the query has been run and cached (i.e. a less restrictive query that the current query can be satisfied from). If it finds there is a cache entry then it will return the results from here instead of issuing any SQL to the database, thereby speeding up getting the results back to the user.
The cache shown in the cusrsor cache is the cache on the presentation server, this is a cache of the content which is being returned to the user's browser, this means if the user goes back to see results for a query they have already made then the presentation server can just return the same content to them without even having to go to the OBIEE server again at all.
So basically 2 levels of caching, one on the OBIEE server and one on the presentation server.
Regards,
Matt

ARP cache error

We have a SBS 2003 server running with a standard dual network configuration. One card for accessing the internet and the other card to connect the server to the local network.
We frequently lose our internet connection for an unknown reason (although the other card is fine and all client computers are still able to access the server -- they just loose internet access.)
We also receive the 'Clearing the ARP Cache' error message when trying to repair the connection.
However, instead of rebooting the server, we simply go into the Network Connections, locate the card that is for the internet connection, right-click and choose 'Disable', and then after it is disabled, right-click and choose 'Enable'.

Hi,
Before going further, would you please let me know if you have configured RRAS on your server? Based on your description, the problem can be caused if you are using RRAS as your basic firewall/NAT.
Please try the following suggestions to see if the problem can be resolved.
1. Firstly, we should make sure whether the network setting is correctly and properly configured. Please re-run CEICW Wizard on the SBS Server, it helps us automatically configure the network
settings, you can refer to this step-by-step article to finish the wizard:
How to configure Internet access in Windows Small Business Server 2003
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/825763/en-us
2. Please double check if you have correctly configured your DNS settings.
a. Leave the Default Gateway of the internal NIC blank on the SBS Server.
b. Configure both the internal NIC and the external NIC to use the internal DNS Service as the DNS Server.
c. On the DNS Server, create the DNS Forwarder to forward the external DNS resolution requests to the ISP's DNS
d. On the DNS Server, delete any public IP that is being registered in the local DNS.
3. Type "arp -d *" (without the quotation mark) from the command prompt. Then try repairing the network card again. If error still occurs, please turn to step 4.
4. Try turning off the "Routing and Remote Access" service, it can cause this problem.
a. Click Start->Run, type "services.msc", go and find "Routing & Remote Access", right click it and choose Properties.
b. Set start-up type to disabled and stop the service.
c. Then restart the computer which is mandatory in this case.
d. Try repairing the network card again, any luck?
If the problem persists, please help me gather the following information:
1. Does everything work normally before? If so, what changes have you made to the server/clients before the problem occurred?
2. Make sure that you uncheck "register this connections in DNS" check box from external NIC.
3. Confirm the connection binding order.
a. Please open Control Panel -> network connections.
b. Click Advanced -> Advanced settings
c. In the adapters and bindings tab, make sure that the internal adapter is on the top.

I keep getting an "Inconsistant System Files" error at startup.

Inconsistant System Files
I have used disk utility and all looks ok. I tried to restore to a previous time with time machine but the error still comes up.
I don't know why it started as I haven't installed any new hardware or software, unless it's something to do with an update..
I'm unable to reset startup disk as there is only network startup as an option.
I think I made a boo boo when restoring as my 1TB drive is now almost full (i'm guessing with a copy of my entire drive, but I can't find it!)
so can't now restore much as there is no room to copy.
I may end up formating, booting from install disc and restoring entirely from time machine, unless anyone can suggest a solution!
Gary

Update,
Thanks for all your suggestions but I have fixed it!
Here's what I did; it got to the point where I could not boot up at all, just got the circle with a slash through it. Not able to boot from DVD either. So.... I took out my time machine HD and put in a couple of old HD's from an old PPC. Remarkably these fired up. I went to disk utility and deleted the striped raid that was playing up, dragged them back and made a new striped raid set with them and re-named it.
I then inserted the install DVD and shut down. Took out the old PPC HD's, put time machine HD back in and restarted. This time it booted from the DVD, I did a full clean install and then ran software update. Installed the updates and restarted.
Then into migration assistant, checked all the boxes and let it do it's thing for a couple of hours. When I came back it looked a mess but after a restart all was back as if nothing had happened. All my applications, files, folders and desktop image and even all my e-mails, all back in place.....
The only thing I can think that started the problems was an update, or series of updates from apple. When installing them a while ago I got a couple of messages about an invalid location and the update being unable to use a certain address. Next time I will take more notice of the message and maybe Google it to find a fix!

Cursor Invalidate error - ora-12842

Hi All,
A user is getting CURSOR INVALIDATE error on Select statement. Some times it works fine and some time it gives this error.
Can any one tell me is it some thing related to the database settings or the only reason is SQL coding. DB - 9.2.0.6
Thanks a lot..

This error is caused by an event outside of the user's session, such as DDL against the object(s) they're querying or somebody flushing the db cache. Hence the irregular pattern of occurrences. Is there anything in the alert log or a trace file which might help you with your troubleshooting?
Cheers, APC
