Last updated on APRIL 12, 2022

Applies to:

Oracle Database - Enterprise Edition - Version 10.2.0.4 to 10.2.0.4 [Release 10.2]
Oracle Database Cloud Schema Service - Version N/A and later
Oracle Database Exadata Cloud Machine - Version N/A and later
Oracle Cloud Infrastructure - Database Service - Version N/A and later
Oracle Database Backup Service - Version N/A and later
Microsoft Windows x64 (64-bit)

Symptoms

In Oracle 10.2.0.4 the execution of a simple xml procedure always crashes the DB Service on Windows x64 systems.
It does not happen on Windows 32 bit systems.

SQL> call exec_xml('DB will crash');
call exec_xml('DB will crash')
*
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-03113: end-of-file on communication channel

One of the possible examples simply validates an xml file , for example example.xml,
against the related dtd file . This code is just an example that is meant to show that the issue can be faced
by simply validating an xml file.





As a result :


Only the Event Viewer shows the following:

Faulting application oracle.exe, version 10.2.0.4, faulting module
oraxml10.dll, version 10.2.0.4, fault address 0x00000000000b7906
