Hi, One of our developer has reported a problem that when the broken flag is set to TRUE from the application ( connection comes from the webserver ) for a scheduled job, its not being set. I tried the following from the SQLPlus dbms_job.broken(<jobno>,TRUE); The broken flag is set to 'Y'. Then I gave the 'commit;' After the commit, The broken flag was set as 'N'. If I don't commit and exit from the SQL*Plus session, and then go back again, I see the broken flag is set to 'Y'. Is it an Oracle bug or is there any thing else need to be done?. We are at 10.2.0.2 on HP-UX. Thanks in Advance, Raja. -- //www.freelists.org/webpage/oracle-l
