Hi all,

I have a very strange problem in our application. I use Oracle 8i, iPlanet Application Server 6.5, iPlanet Web Server 4.0 and JDBC thin driver on the same machine.

Most of the requests go fine, but very few of them fail. In the log file of the application, I can see 2 errors which occur when I want to open a connection to the server :

SQLException - Invalid URL: Driver type not specified
SQLException - Exception d'E/S: The Network Adapter could not establish the connection

Morever, the client window displays an incomplete html page when the error occurs.

The Oracle Server is running in "Dedicated Mode" and my idea is to switch it into "MTS Mode", but I'm to sure it will resole all or part the problem.

Could you give me your expert opinions about this ? Has anybody ever dealt with this twisted problem ?

Thanks by advance Received on Tue Feb 25 2003 - 10:14:29 CST
