Problem while installing Oracle 10g Routing Engine

Question

I am trying to run the procedure
exec sdo_router_partition.partition_router('NODE_PART', 1000); on my dataset.
While executing it gives an error class not found.. and comes out.
When i look at the database table, i find a lot of tables named
node_part_1112, node_part_1113, node_part_1114, .... and so on..
Please suggest..!!
If i use some other number other than 1000, then it makes the system hang..!!
Q1) If i have a dataset with 2.5+ lac records in edge table..what is the number which would be appropriate for running the procedure.!!
Thanks and Regards

The first thing you need to do is be sure the Router's log directory is set up properly and that the right users have permission from both SQL and Java to write to the log file. From SQL execute the following
select * from all_directories where directory_name='SDO_ROUTER_LOG_DIR';
Make sure the directory_path that is returned is correct.
If the directory doesn't exist you can create it with
CREATE DIRECTORY sdo_router_log_dir as '<explicit_log_directory>';
Once created make sure the correct users have privs to write to the directory with the following:
GRANT read, write ON DIRECTORY sdo_router_log_dir TO <routeserver_user>;
call dbms_java.grant_permission('<ROUTESERVER_USER>', 'java.io.FilePermission',
'/<explicit_log_directory>/*', 'read,write');
GRANT read, write ON DIRECTORY sdo_router_log_dir TO MDSYS;
call dbms_java.grant_permission('MDSYS', 'java.io.FilePermission',
'/<explicit_log_directory>/*', 'read,write');
Replace <explicit_log_dir> with the full directory path to where the directory was created.
Note that <explicite_log_dir> on the permission setup for java must be terminated with /*
as it is above.
Replace <routeserver_user> with the name of the user that set up and uses the Routeserver data.
Once this is set up properly try and rerun the partitioning. With the set up you should get access to
a log file that will give us more information if something goes wrong with the actual partitioning
process.
