Can you debug the actual queries CF sends to Oracle? I know Oracle keeps a
query history somewhere. Then use those queries in SQL Plus, see if you get
the same results.

Also, perhaps get a packet sniffer going on the CF side of the firewall to
see what connections are being attempted and whether or not the firewall is
allowing those (also check firewall logs for clues).

Sorry it's vague, but it's an elimination troubleshooting approach.

Subject: [ cf-dev ] Oracle / CF Error


Hi, Happy New Year to you all.

I know I've run this one past the group before, but I thought I'd give it
another go as I'm completely stuck.

We use the Oracle native driver in CF (SQL Plus/SQLnet 8.1.5) to talk to the
Oracle database.  This works absolutely fine, and will bring back 1 or 1000
records, depending on the selection criteria.

We also have the same software on a server the other side of our firewall
(using Borderware v.6.5 (Feature Pack A)) with a port through the firewall
to the same Oracle database.  This also uses the native driver.  When we run
queries (the same ones I was talking about above) then sometimes we get the
message:

Error Diagnostic Information
Oracle Error Code = 3113
ORA-03113: end-of-file on communication channel

There seems to be no pattern to this.  Sometimes it's on queries that only
return 30 records, and sometimes on queries that return 200 records.  But
then again it can work on queries that return 500 records!  It's the same
query, the only difference is that is running through the firewall.

If I take ColdFusion out of the equation and run the query through SQL/Plus
on the firewall server (so going through the same port as with CF) then the
queries run fine everytime, which makes me think it is something to do with
CF.

I've also tried the Merant Oracle ODBC driver and this produces the same
message.

Does anyone have any ideas?  Please!!
