Title: RE: ORA-03115 (TOAD question!!)

Hi,

 

It worked!! As suggested by Raj, I browsed the TOAD help on SQL*Net installation and found out this piece of information:

 

**

When Oracle connects, it will look in ALL_HOMES for the "LAST_HOME" value, which in this case is zero "0".  It appends zero to "HOME" to produce "HOME0", then it looks in HKLM\Software\ORACLE\HOME0 for the ORACLE_HOME value.

**

 

I modified the LAST_HOME key to point to the 8i HOME and restarted TOAD and was able to query CLOBs successfully.

 

Thanks a lot!!

 

Best wishes,

Charu

It is a TOAD question .... you need to read the sqlnet setup section from help file. It is pretty detailed and will help you resolve the problem.

Hi,

I have Oracle 8i Enterprise Server, Oracle 9i Enterprise Server
and Oracle 7.3.4 client on my NT4 machine. When I connect to
remote/local databases through TOAD 6.5 (which supports LOBs) and
try to fetch a CLOB value I get the 'ORA-03115: Unsupported
network datatype or representation'.

I think that this error is due to the limitation of CLOBs in
SQL*Net 2.3 which comes with 7.3.4 client. However, I have set the
default home to ORA_8i_HOME(which has Net8) using the 'Home
Selector' utility. Also, TOAD is reading the TNSNames.Ora file
from this home, so should be using Net8 rather than SQL*Net. I
have Googled and searched Metalink, but got no clearcut reply. Can
you please suggest any way to rectify it?

Thanks & regards,
Charu.
