Problem summary

  * USERS AFFECTED:                                              *

  ****************************************************************
  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:                                         *
  * The engine was not properly handling the case where an alert *
  * handler is configured for a subscription but is missing      *
  * information. Starting the subscription caused an Internal    *
  * Error, and replication would stop.                           *
  ****************************************************************
  * RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
  * Upgrade to IDR 11.4.0.4-5618 or newer.                       *
