There is an ORA-00155, thus: $ oerr ora 155 00155, 00000, "cannot perform work outside of global transaction" // *Cause: The application tried to perform some work on either an Oracle // 7.3 server or an Oracle8 server with local transactions disabled // while outside of a global transaction. // *Action: Check if the application is connected to an Oracle 7.3 server. The // Transaction monitor must not return a NULL XID on an AX_REG call // when the resource manager is Oracle 7.3. If the application is // connected to an Oracle8 server, either set nolocal=f in the // xa_open string or start a global transaction prior to attempting // the work.
