Can anyone help? <<< TLE::DISK$NOTES_PACK:[NOTES$LIBRARY]VAXC.NOTE;1 >>> -< VAX C Notes >- ================================================================================ Note 1762.0 VAX C & ORACLE problems No replies KAOFS::M_ROY 13 lines 23-NOV-1988 13:50 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- A customer of our is having a problem..They are using VAX C V2.4 and ORACLE V5.1.22..They get their problems when they try to run programs (that worked fine on VMS V4.7) on VMS V5.0 on a 6220.. The error they are getting is IMPROPERLY HANDLED CONDITION, BAD STACK OR NO HANDLER SPECIFIED..This seems to happen after a ORACLE call if (OPEN_ORACLE() == false)..I told him it was ORACLE related, but they want to know why are they having problems, the only difference is the VMS version.. Does anybody know any problems with ORACLE V5.1.22 running on VMS V5.0 ? It seems that the stack might handle the ORACLE call different in V5.0 Any help would be appreciated..

Well, let's see. To load Oracle V5.1.22 on VMS V5.0, one must eliminate the possibility of the Oracle software finding the VMS version number. In other words, Oracle must be blind to the version, since it will only accomodate up to VMS 4.6 (or 4.7, I can't remember). So I would guess that the Oracle libraries are unaware of the version number as well. So, I don't know what happens under SMP. But I would guess that since Oracle can't see the operating system's SMP support, Oracle can't use it. That might not show up until the user had three processors instead of two. The possibilities for chaos are endless. In fairness, I have had reports that your version of Oracle works fine up to 6220. But I have had no reports on any configuration with more than two processors. So, who knows what happens then. You really should deal with Oracle on situations like this. There is little we can do to correct conditions created by their software. ---- Michael Booth |
