Oracle Database Discussions

Hi

My current application (still under development) is experiencing Oracle
deadlock problems.

The application is written using VB thru ADO and COM, Oracle 816.

My problem is that, while I can review the trace file produced, I can't
figure out what the actual deadlock is occurring on. I have seen deadlock
trace files that clearly state "table blah", but in this case, I get:

*** 2003-06-21 14:32:03.841
*** SESSION ID:(27.31211) 2003-06-21 14:32:03.810
DEADLOCK DETECTED
Deadlock graph:
---------Blocker(s)--------
Resource Name process session holds waits process session holds
waits
DX-0000003b-00000000 22 18 X 24 27
X

Rows waited on:
Session 27: no row
*** 2001-06-21 14:32:03.857
ksedmp: internal or fatal error
ORA-00060: deadlock detected while waiting for resource

Is there something like TKPROF that will process the trace file and give
me
more info on what is happening? It looks like I am waiting for a resource
to be freed, but which one is the question.

thanks for any help.
