This problem doesn't occur with my "thin" driver at all.

I am unfortunately forced to use the OCE driver: First of all, for speed reasons. And the "thin" driver shows some problems using large/many BLOBs.

That's why I was asking if I could just use the updated "classes12.zip" in the Solaris package with my original (8.1.6) libocijdbc8.so driver to solve the problem.

P.S. This bug shows me, that OpenSource has a big advantage: If the OCI driver would be open sources, I could patch the linux driver myself. So I am bound to the fact that Oracle probably just forgot to apply the bugfix to the Linux part. Received on Wed Jun 20 2001 - 02:13:57 CDT
