I have rebuilt a test database and cannot generate trace files. Is there a known bug with Oracle 8.1.6? This is the only installation that I am unable to find any errors when I run :
ALTER SESSION SET SQL_TRACE=TRUE.

or
ALTER DATABASE BACKUP CONTROLFILE TO TRACE;

The Alert log file shows following:

Thu Mar 28 10:22:08 2002
alter database backup controlfile to trace
Completed: alter database backup controlfile to trace

I have checked for file permissions and I can spool files to my backgroung_dump_dest as specified on init.ora file.
This problem has got me stumped. I have recycled the database and nothing seems to work. Appreciate it if anyone can resolve this one or point me to why I am unable to create a trace file.
