Re: HELP: Web/Oracle Interface Errors

[snip]

: When the Pro-C procedure is run standalone (using the Oracle server), the data
: is fetched correctly. When the gateway program is run locally on the Sparc20,
: the gateway program returns the correct data. When the gateway program is
: called from a Web browser, we get an SQL*Net TNS:name lookup failure error. We
: don't have any idea whether the problem is Oracle-specific,
: Web-server-specific, or some combination thereof. We have not been able to get
: much assistance from Oracle's technical support group.
 

: Does anyone out there have any suggestions as to why we might be getting this
: error message? Please E-mail your thoughts to me at emeighm_at_bah.com, since my
: news server doesn't always get all posts. Thanks in advance.

Hrm ... does SQL*Net depend on any environment variables (PATH for example)? When CGI apps are forked off, they don't contain the same environment variables that an app run from the command line would have.
