Yes, it's a web application and uses a listener. The listener entry has
not been modified. There was a vague reference in the MTS docs that
eluded to using a special connection string. But I got the impression
that you would use a special connection string *if* you wanted the
abillity to chooose between direct connection or mts (shared).
In my case Id simply like to have all connections to use MTS.
Should I be using a special connection string or listener entry? If so
where can I find some examples
Here is my asp application connection string (using the Oracle OLEDB
provider wich is current)
Connect=Provider=OraOLEDB.Oracle;PLSQLRSet=1;Password=z;Persist Security
Info=True;User ID=me;Data Source=mydb
Here is my traditional sql+ connection
username/password@instance
So, Im wondering what type of "special" connection string I'd need for
mts (if that's the case)
Listener entry
(SID_DESC =
(GLOBAL_DBNAME =mydb)
(ORACLE_HOME = C:\Oracle\Ora81)
(SID_NAME = mydb)
)
This is on win2k server, Oracle 8.1.7
Thanks!
