We had something similar a few years ago.  Check out BUG 2546111.

I have been investigating further. I found the bug report you mentioned but I 
have not applied the patch to either server. The error does not occur on the 
test/devel server but does on the production. Do you have any further 
suggestions?

Bill,

maybe a difference in patches applied on these two platforms as you probably hit
Bug #5495695 (See ML Note #5495695.8)

Quoting William Wagman <wjwagman@xxxxxxxxxxx>:

Greetings,

I'm running oracle 9.2.0.8.0EE on RHEL4, all 64-bit. I have a login.sql where
a few usernames and passwords are defined and I am able to connect
successfully...

[oracle@critpinn ~]$ sqlplus /
SQL*Plus: Release 9.2.0.8.0 - Production on Thu Feb 19 12:58:33 2009
Copyright (c) 1982, 2002, Oracle Corporation.  All rights reserved.
Connected to:
Oracle9i Enterprise Edition Release 9.2.0.8.0 - 64bit Production
With the Partitioning, OLAP and Oracle Data Mining options
JServer Release 9.2.0.8.0 - Production

SQL> CONNECT &&UCD_USER/&&UCD_PASSWORD;
Connected.

However if I initially issue a whenever oserror the connection fails with a no
such file or directory message...

[oracle@critpinn ~]$ sqlplus /
.
.
SQL> WHENEVER OSERROR EXIT SQL.SQLCODE ROLLBACK
SQL> CONNECT &&UCD_USER/&&UCD_PASSWORD
O/S Message: No such file or directory
Disconnected from Oracle9i Enterprise Edition Release 9.2.0.8.0 - 64bit
Production
With the Partitioning, OLAP and Oracle Data Mining options
JServer Release 9.2.0.8.0 - Production

This behaves differently on the development box, ie, I don't get disconnected
as a result of the whenever oserror clause. I am unable to find a difference
between the two boxes which would cause the error and web searching has not
revealed anything yet. Strace reveals that the files

$ORACLE_HOME/lib/libngss9.so &
$ORACLE_HOME/lib/libnnts9.so

Don't exist but they do not exist on the devel box either. I see many seeks
and immediately before it dumps there is a line with text...

Lseek (7, 0, SEEK_CUR)   = -1 ESPIPE (Illegal seek)

But I have no idea what that means. I can't for the life of me determine what
file is being sought in this case. Any suggestions would greatly appreciated.
Even suggestions for how to trace the problem further.

Thanks.
