Subject: update: write errors - 5.1A PK5 & Oracle problems?
The question I asked earlier about the DBAs seeing write errors seems to
be misleading - we've ruled out hardware or OS problems pretty much. It =
looks
like it might be an incompatibility of some form between 5.1A PK5 (just
applied the patches this weekend) and Oracle 8.1.7.4 but I can't get any
confirmation on that from anybody. Oracle insists it's not their =
problem,
but nothing I do outside of Oracle can reproduce the problem.
Has anybody else run into this problem before? Any known bugs between 8i =
and
5.1A PK5? This didn't come up on our test and development systems, but=20
the DBAs have managed to get a script from oracle's developers that =
trigger
it on them. Aparently whatever level of activity on test and dev for the =
month
that it was on them wasn't enough to expose the problem.
I hope someone has some insight on this and is awake/gets this over the=20
weekend.
