ORA-3106 : fatal two-task communication protocol error

[Prasanna]

We get the following error intermittantly in our server. We are using WebLogic 6.1. Any reason. Here is the log we are getting...

Parsing: BEGIN gid_msg_fund.fund_get_details (:1, :2, :3, :4, :5, :6, :7, :8)
; END;
Executing: BEGIN gid_msg_fund.fund_get_details (:1, :2, :3, :4, :5, :6, :7, :8
) ; END;

ORA-03106
========
Possible reasons for the ORA-03106 errors include:

1. Incompatibilities between the client application and the RDBMS server.
For
example, version incompatibilities, or a client trying to use a feature not
supported by the database kernel.

2. When using database links or gateways.

3. Network or SQL*Net problems.

4. Corruptions.

5. PL/SQL - language related.

RDBMS - Troubleshooting two-task common errors
==============================================

1. Check for NLS incompatibilities between the client and server. This is
a very popular cause of the ORA-03106 error.

2. Check the alert log and RDBMS trace files for any pertinent information /
errors that coincide with receiving the ORA-03106 error.

3. Try to get a testcase and reproduce the problem in-house.

4. If a testcase is not possible, ask for SQL*Net trace files, SQL traces,
and
try setting event 3106 to obtain the error stack.

5. In extreme circumstances, this could indicate that a shared memory
segment
used by Oracle is corrupted. You will have to shut down the database,
possibly using the abort option. Make sure all semaphores have been
released by using the IPCS command on Unix. Oracle uses semaphores to
control concurrency between all of the background processes (pmon, smon,
drwr, lgwr, and oracle shadow processes). Semaphores are also used to
control Two-Task communication between the user process and the shadow
process.

6. Try and narrow down the code that may be causing it. For example it might
have started to happen after increasing the number of parameters in a PL/SQL
block or when using certain values for bind variables, etc.

7. If we still do not make headway, file a bug under RDBMS, but we still may
need some or all of the above information as indicated above

hope it helps!!
