While trying to trace the execution plan of any script, I get the following message :

>set autotrace on
>select count(*) from mem_item;

COUNT(*)
----------
334037


Execution Plan
----------------------------------------------------------
ERROR:
ORA-01438: value larger than specified precision allows for this column


Error generating AUTOTRACE EXPLAIN report

Does any one know what is causing this ?

Thanks in advance.

Happy coding.
