IIS, Oracle problems

Hi

I have a strange problem.

On my NT Workstation (intel) I have developed some active server objects that connects to an Oracle database, the objects is accessed via ASP. When i run my application on the Intel Workstation there's no problems at all, I can even access the Oracle database directly via asp without using the Objects.

If i then recompile my objects to run on a Dec Alpha server, nothing works and if i try to access the Oracle Database directly via ASP (without using the objects) on the Alpha server there's no reponse - that is sometimes it just hangs other times it returns nothing and often the browser Returns "A trappable error occurred in an external object. The script cannot continue running". The ASP code has been tested on intel and works fine, but when moved to Alpha the problems starts.

The Alpha server is already running ASP against an SQL Server without problems.

I have tested the ODBC connection on the Alpha server with the "Oracle ODBC test" utility and here i CAN easily get data from the Oracle Database!!!! So the ODBC connection works fine.

Here's my configuration:
Alpha Server:
  Win NT 4.0 SP 3
  IIS 4.0
  Mdac 2.0 SP 2
  Oracle8 client version 8.0.4.1.0

I use the Oracle ODBC driver, because when I try to configure the MicroSoft ODBC driver for Oracle the system says the oracle client 7.3 or greater must be installed!!! (they are already installed) I have seen a Kb artilcle that says i should user Oracle client 7.3 instead, but the problem is that I can't get hold of these utils for alpha.

Has anybody else tried to run ASP against an Oracle Database on the Alpha platform????
