NT Service

[BrianRitchie]

Why does DOA not work when used in a NT Service using BCB5 on Win2000? What can I do to make it work? I do not get an error message. it seems like it is working but nothing is sent to the database. There is nothing wrong with the code, it works in a com+ object but not in a service??? I do not understand.

Your service is probably running as a user (or no user as the case may be) that doesn't have permissions to search/read files. The first thing DOA does is go look for the Oracle client DLL location. I believe the code searches the registry. You'll need to run your service as a user with rights to read the Oracle registry key and read/execute rights to the Oracle directory.
