Try reinstalling Oracle client software, also make sure you don't have multiple copies and/or multiple versions of the client DLLs installed on your system. Note that Oracle ODBC driver from Oracle does not use Oracle client and talks directly to SQL*Net. Oracle ODBC drivers from Microsoft and Intersolve apper to be less buggy and more stable than Oracle own driver. : I'm running Windows NT with SP6 using the latest version 2.1.2 I'm running : the Oracle 8i client on the server. : Using either Oracle 7.3 or Oracle 8.0.4-8i, 24x7 crashes with a "Dr. : Watson". This can be repeated either through a Test Connection, or : using a SQL command job. The weird thing is that if I setup an ODBC : connection to the SAME database. Then, "prime" it by doing a : Test Connection using the ODBC connection through 24x7. Subsequently, I : can use the Oracle connection with no problems. (BTW-This only works if : you prime it with an ODBC connection that has the same underlying Oracle : database.) : Anyone else seen this weird behavior? : Thanks. : Derek
