If you can connect from a desktop to the server via SQL -- and your ARS server is in a different location -- then Hardening is not the issue.. If you can connect from a desktop to the server via sql - But... the DB-Oracle is on the SAME server -- then it could be Hardening.
I would just ask the Unix/MS Admin if it was hardened... Recently -- Surely Change management is in place right? -- I know.. some places it is not. -- another thing to check.. just stop the ARS server and restart ./arsystem stop ./arsystem start -- I have seen this crash on startup before, with no apperent reason. -- You can also put in Debug mode in the ar.conf, and check the logs.. example:: Debug-mode: 131072 -- Then Check the logs -- ensure your logs are new names otherwise you will have to Sift alot. Hope that helps some... ;-) On 1/28/08, ZHANG, ERIC L <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Thanks, Patrick! > > I checked on database and I don't see any problem.
