Hi Robert,Niall and Friends, Thanks for your reply. Found it is due to miss on maintenance activity to confirm the job_queue_process. Thanks for the quick relief. Thanks & Regards Mudhalvan M.M From: Robert Hanuschke <robert.hanuschke@xxxxxxxxx> To: niall.litchfield@xxxxxxxxx Cc: 1326914 MUDHALVAN.MUNISWAMY/AOZORABANK@AOZORABANK, oracle-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Date: 08/08/2012 03:09 PM Subject: Re: Un-able to upload xml file - Error:ORA-14400: inserted partition key does not map to any partition Hi Niall, was just trying that in one of our test databases: SQL> show parameter job_queue_processes; NAME TYPE VALUE ------------------------------------ ----------- ------------------------------ job_queue_processes integer 10 SQL> exec dbms_scheduler.set_scheduler_attribute('SCHEDULER_DISABLED','TRUE'); PL/SQL procedure successfully completed. SQL> show parameter job_queue_processes; NAME TYPE VALUE ------------------------------------ ----------- ------------------------------ job_queue_processes integer 10 At least disabling the scheduler that way did not modify the parameter. Did you possibly do it another way?

We certainly had a db where disabling the scheduler disabled the dbms_job system as well, I *think* with the symptoms you describe. -- //www.freelists.org/webpage/oracle-l -- //www.freelists.org/webpage/oracle-l
