Hi List, We got ORA-1000 errors "Too many open cursors" and our open_cursors is set to 1000. I was wondering if it's better to increase open_cursor or set CLOSE_CACHED_OPEN_CURSORS = true to resolve the problem. I know CLOSE_CACHED_OPEN_CURSORS is an obsolete initialization parameter in Oracle release 8.1. If I want to set CLOSE_CACHED_OPEN_CURSORS = true, do I have to set _close_cached_open_cursors=true? Or is it better to ask developer using SET_CLOSE_CACHED_OPEN_CURSORS Procedure in the application? _________________________________________________________________ Get fast, reliable access with MSN 9 Dial-up.
