Here’s a little procedure I’ve been using since Oracle 8i to dump the contents of the current log file – I’ve mentioned it several times in the past but never published it, so I’ll be checking for references to it and linking to it.
The code hasn’t changed in a long time, although I did add a query to get the full tracefile name from v$process when that became available. There’s also an (optional) called to dbms_support.my_sid to pick up the SID of the current session that slid into the code when that package became available.
