    Nonstop ORA-04031 ORA-04031: unable to allocate 32 bytes of shared memory ("streams p

    Nonstop errors

    ORA-04031: unable to allocate 32 bytes of shared memory ("streams pool","unknown object","streams pool","fixed allocation callback")

    I went into OEM yesterday and was going through an export just so I could use the job that estimates the export size because I wanted to set up a weekly job and during the size estimate it died with a memory error. I didnt write it down at the time. But now I noticed this error ever since this ran. Is there a way to stop this estimate job that seems to be running somehow in the background?

    Streams is not being used or configured from what I can tell. This is a 3rd party app.

    SQL> show parameter streams

    perhaps you should allocate some to it then?

    Apparently, a process is trying to allocate some memory from the stream pool. You can start by:

    1. Checking the trace file generated
    2. Identify the offensive statement
    3. Check why this statement is trying to allocate memory from stream pool.
