I need to execute some scripts/programs from DBMS_Scheduler, and I'm receiving ORA-27369: job of type EXECUTABLE failed with exit code: error 9638456 Is there anyway of knowing if this is a OpenVMS error or an Oracle Error. Oracle haven't been able to help so far. I've tried redirecting output from the script run by dbsm_scheduler into a file, by defining a user_mode file, but the contents of the file says: %DCL-W-UNDFIL, file has not been opened by DCL - check logical name I've set file permissions to execute for world users, and I can run the script for the shell. I've tried including my login script from withing the script i'm calling from dbms_scheduler, to make sure the env is set up, too. I'd really appreciate some OpenVMS help with this problem.

loonyjuice, It is hard to troubleshoot this problem without being hand-on. It does sound like a protection or a logical name problem. We can attempt to troubleshoot this problem one bit at a time in the forum. For starters, what is the name of the file that you are specifying? If a hand-on approach is desired, we can take it offline. - Bob Gezelter, http://www.rlgsc.com
