I used to use Q as well. What is happening is that the 'engine' is running
inside the database via dbms_jobs. Stop the jobs from running (either from
the Q menu) or stop the internal jobs.
Good luck.

I just upgraded my test server from 8.1.6.1.1. to 8.1.6.3.0, then up to
8.1.6.3.1.. You can get 8.1.6.3.1. at
ftp://oracle-ftp.oracle.com/server/patchsets/wgt_tech/server/windowsNT/81pat

I had previously installed a trial version of Savant QDiagnostics, but after
de-installing the thing I am left with a QDBA account that cannot be
deleted.
Drop user qdba cascade hangs whether I do it from DBA Studio, SQL*Plus or
svrmgrl.
I logged a TAR with Oracle, their response was to ask me a dozen questions,
as if they haven't seen this before.
I created a dummy user, created a table, inserted some records into it, then
successfully dropped the table and the user. So I think this has to do with
either memory shortage on my test machine, or the QDBA user itself. Perhaps
those "compressed" packages it owns in the database.
Anyway, I had no apparent problems, except now the Oracle Management Server
service refuses to start, it says something like "the environment pointers
have changed". I haven't logged a TAR regarding that yet, I have to answer
the dozen questions Oracle Support threw at me.
Let me know if you find out anything more, we plan to upgrade to 8.1.6 this
summer and I have to verify that this version is actually stable.

Subject: 8.1.6 upgrade
Hi all,
Has anyone upgraded 8.1.6 EE on Windows NT to 8.1.6.3.0? I
have done
exactly what oracle said to do and it appears as though it is
missing a .dll
and without the installation is hosed. Do you have to upgrade to
some other
version first? The instance I upgraded was 8.1.6.1, then when it
crashed I
tried a reinstall and it still gives me the same error. Any help
would be
great, I see nothing in the documentaition with the patch that says
I have
to be at anything other than 8.1.6.
Sincerely,
Kevin Kostyszyn
