recurring error in logs

Post by wgkwvl » Fri 12 Aug 2011 10:58

Hi, we are using devart 6.0.xx with oracle and I notice this error occuring sporadically in my log file.
this is our connection string :

Please try the following:
1. Check the inner exception (with the Devart call stack). The message of inner exception can help to identify the reason of the problem more clearly.
2. Make sure that there are no any network and Oracle server problems when the error occurs.
3. Upgrade to the latest version (6.30.202) of dotConnect of Oracle.
4. Localize the problem and send us a small test project with your model and corresponding DDL/DML script to reproduce the issue in our environment.

Hi,

we have a problem with sporadic "hangs" of a Intranet Web Application ( ASP.Net 4.0, dotconnect 6.50.244, oracle client 10g, IIS7, Windows Server 2008).

Exception message: The underlying provider failed on Open
and
Message: Server did not respond within the specified timeout interval

It seems to be a problem with the LAN (Web-Server <-> Oracle-Server).
The LAN is unfortunately sometimes quite instable.

I read in most of your forum answers regarding such a problem:
"Be sure there are no network problems..."

So now we are in the situation of having spordic network problems.
How does dotconnect/oracle client deal with such problems and what can we do to prevent the application from these "hangs"

Thanks!

If you have unstable network try using 'ValidateConnection=true;' OracleConnection connection string parameter.
For more information, please refer to http://www.devart.com/dotconnect/oracle ... ction.html
