Set Autotrace Traceonly giving error SP2-0618 and SP2-0611 in Oracle 18c
When i had given command "set autotrace traceonly" it has thrown error as below,
SP2-0618: Cannot find the Session Identifier. Check PLUSTRACE role is enabled
SP2-0611: Error enabling STATISTICS report
It seems something wired here.
Few steps need to follow to work autotrace in sqlplus.
1. cd $oracle_home/rdbms/admin
2. log into sqlplus as sys or system
3. run SQL> @utlxplan
4. run SQL> create public synonym plan_table for plan_table
5. run SQL> grant all on plan_table to public
6. exit sqlplus and cd $oracle_home/sqlplus/admin
7. log into sqlplus as SYS
8. run SQL> @plustrce
9. run SQL> grant plustrace to public
Let's follow another steps.
$ cd $ORACLE_HOME/sqlplus/admin/
$ sqlplus / as sysdba
