Same sql statement gives output in different lines in 12.1.3 vs 11i

Question

Hi all,
DB:11.2.0.3.0
EBS:11i and 12.1.3
O/S: Solaris SPARC 64 bits 5.10
The below query gives the output in one line in 11i as expected but it gives the output in two separate lines in 12.1.3. Are there any server level settings for linesize and pagesize to be performed?
set term off;
  set serveroutput on size 1000000;
  set feedback off;
  set pagesize 0;
  set head off;
  set linesize 72;
  set pause off;
  set colsep '';
select
        lpad(code_combination_id,15,0)||
        rpad(to_char(start_date_active,'YYYYMMDD'),8,' ')||
        rpad(to_char(end_date_active,'YYYYMMDD'),8,' '),
        substr(SEGMENT1,1,3)||  --entity
        rpad(substr(SEGMENT2,1,6),6,' ')||  --account
        rpad(substr(SEGMENT3,1,5),5,' ')||  --costcenter
        rpad(substr(SEGMENT4,1,6),6,' ')||  --activity
        substr(SEGMENT6,1,3)||  --product
        substr(SEGMENT7,1,3)||  --service
        substr(SEGMENT5,1,3)||  --country
        substr(SEGMENT8,1,3)||  --intercompany
        rpad(substr(SEGMENT9,1,8),8,' ')||  --regional
        substr(enabled_flag,1,1) -- active flag
from gl_code_combinations
where last_update_date >=
      (select nvl(max(actual_start_date),'01-JAN-1951')
       from fnd_concurrent_requests
       where concurrent_program_id = (select concurrent_program_id
                                      from fnd_concurrent_programs
                                      where
                                      concurrent_program_name = 'XYZACCT')
       and status_code = 'C'
       and actual_completion_date is not null)
order by 1;
OUTPUT in 11i
============
00000000000100020120930        7014912000000000000000000000000000000000Y
00000000000100120120930        5014912000000000000000000000000000000000Y
OUTPUT in 12.1.3
==============
00000000000116020120930
4881124010000000000000000000000000000000Y
000000000001161
6103229990000000000000000000000000000000Y
11i and 12.1.3 should get the output in one line as per the above sql statement.
Could anyone please share the fix on the above issue?
Thanks for your time
Regards,

Hi,
Can you confirm in what session are you running this query.
Try this
Column Code_Date_Range format a25
Column Segments format a50
set lines 300
set pages 200
set term off;
  set serveroutput on size 1000000;
  set feedback off;
  set pagesize 0;
  set head off;
  set linesize 72;
  set pause off;
  set colsep '';
select
        lpad(code_combination_id,15,0)||
        rpad(to_char(start_date_active,'YYYYMMDD'),8,' ')||
        rpad(to_char(end_date_active,'YYYYMMDD'),8,' ') Code_Date_Range,
        substr(SEGMENT1,1,3)||  --entity
        rpad(substr(SEGMENT2,1,6),6,' ')||  --account
        rpad(substr(SEGMENT3,1,5),5,' ')||  --costcenter
        rpad(substr(SEGMENT4,1,6),6,' ')||  --activity
        substr(SEGMENT6,1,3)||  --product
        substr(SEGMENT7,1,3)||  --service
        substr(SEGMENT5,1,3)||  --country
        substr(SEGMENT8,1,3)||  --intercompany
        rpad(substr(SEGMENT9,1,8),8,' ')||  --regional
        substr(enabled_flag,1,1) Segments -- active flag
from gl_code_combinations
where last_update_date >=
      (select nvl(max(actual_start_date),'01-JAN-1951')
       from fnd_concurrent_requests
       where concurrent_program_id = (select concurrent_program_id
                                      from fnd_concurrent_programs
                                      where
                                      concurrent_program_name = 'XYZACCT')
       and status_code = 'C'
       and actual_completion_date is not null)
