Windows 7 embedded: Problem to connect to database

Post by rdeutsch » Wed 30 Jul 2014 07:04

Hi

Delphi-XE5, ODAC 9.1.4

Are there known problems to connect to oracle database when the application is installed on Windows 7 embedded?

When the app tries to connect this errormessage occurs:

The funny thing is that when we set the application to compatibility mode WinXPSP3 then all works fine. But that should not be the solution.

Any idea?

Thanks for help and kind regards,
Robert

Hello,

We haven't tested our products on embedded versions of the OS. The problem may be due to access rights, firewall settings, etc. Try disabling the firewall. In addition, try using the host IP address instead of the host name.

We use ODAC with Windows Embedded Standard 7 but this error never occurred in our applications. As AlexP suggested, try to use address instead of host names (maybe the problem is inside host file?)
