RDBMS 9.2.0.3 PLSQL version 5.1.3.704

I have been working with PLSQL Developer for awhile and everything has been fine.

Suddenly I am having the following problems.

1. When compiling I get an EOF on Communication channel. I saw this issue in a seperate thread and the work around works, but I don't agree that this is an RDBMS bug. Bouncing the DB does not fix.

2. The Debugger hangs when a breakpoint is hit. I get the following errors reported:

ORA-00600: internal error code, arguments: [15419], [severe error during PL/SQL execution], [], [], [], [], [], []

ORA-06544: PL/SQL: internal error, arguments: [2603], [], [], [], [], [], [], []

ORA-06553: PLS-707: unsupported construct or internal error [2603]

The debugger is the primary tool that I use and is currently non operational.

Has anything changed between "working fine" and "non operational"? Perhaps an Oracle Server or Client upgrade? An Operating System upgrade? A PL/SQL Developer upgrade?

Nothing has changed on the server and I am still running the same version of plsql dev that I installed. I have had other changes on my laptop though. I have installed a new VPN client, Global Network Client and windows patches required in relation to the blaster virus. Maybe one of those changes corrupted something? I've been considering re-install plsql developer. What are your thoughts? What are the recommeded procedures for a re-install?

oracle 9i often breaks with the end-of-communication channel error message and the ora-0600 messages. we had this problem with dynamic sql and database links. Did you try to dop the package and create / compile it fresh from the start (may have the same name). Often this helped us.

we tested 9.2.0.2 and 9.2.0.3 and the 9.2.0.2 was more stable than the 9.2.0.3. So we use 9.2.0.2 because of those problems.
