Okay, I got the answer to the question - I tried compiling the 9i utl_http package in an 8i test database, and it failed conclusively.
Any other options for using the HTTP 'POST' method in 8i? Thanks & regards, -----Original Message----- Sent: Thursday, July 17, 2003 12:04 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Dear all, Database: Oracle 8.1.7.4 Enterprise OS: HP-UX 11 We want to implement a stored proc that would send data to an http:// url using 'POST' method. The UTL_HTTP package in 8i doesn't support the POST method, while that in 9i does. We are now considering two options: 1. Install the 9i version of the package in the 8i database. If it works, this would be good, because we are planning to upgrade before 2004. 2. Use the code provided by Tom Kyte (with some modifications) in 'Oracle Expert one-on-one'. Will the 9i version of UTL_HTTP run without any trouble in 8i? How safe it is to do so? Will licensing be an issue here?
