Oracle oran8.dll Error

[Dhiraj]

Hello,
I am using Oracle 8i and Delphi 6 as backend. DOA Ver : 3.4.2

I am using DataSet component to fire a SQL and Open it. In the beginning it shows me the proper results but after 5-6 times it gives me
Access violation at address 0157E91B in module 'oran8.dll'. Read of address 00000000

Any guess why it is giving this.

Seems like an Oracle Net bug to me. The oran8.dll library is part of Net8. Can you test this on a different PC?

Hi,
I tried on 2-3 different machines but of no use. I even tried installing Oracle 9i Client
but still the problem exists.

I had the same problem sometimes. Disappeared after moving to D7 and DOA 4. Not sure which one was the main cause but I think it was D6 >> D7.

You get an oran8.dll access violation on Oracle Net 9? This would imply that Direct Oracle Access is still using Net 8, because for Net 9 this DLL is named oran9.dll.
