I took out 2 comment lines in the config file, but later restored it and it still didn't work. There are multiple users on this box, so they might have changed something in the environment.
Any suggestion where I can start to look?
Thanks.

The usual question at this point is "what did you change?". Have you installed
a new version of Radiator? a new version of Perl? was the configuration file
changed? have the passwords on the database changed? has your ORACLE_HOME
environment variable changed? has the tsnames.ora file changed?
There is also a very good FAQ on this topic here:
