when I first use

begin
dbms_stats.gather_schema_stats
(ownname => USER,
options => 'GATHER EMPTY',
cascade => true);
end;
/

I get the following error:

ERROR at line 1:
ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: character string buffer too small
ORA-06512: at "SYS.DBMS_STATS", line 4602
ORA-06512: at "SYS.DBMS_STATS", line 4725
ORA-06512: at "SYS.DBMS_STATS", line 4697
ORA-06512: at line 2

The schema has no stats on any table or indexes.

but if I use the same block again it completes succesfully without doing anything in between.

I verified the dba_tables and dba_indexes views and the stats have been gathered.

What is happenning?

Is the package failing when there are many tables to do?

Please explain?
