I think I have a similar problem to "sparis", posted on the 18th last. I have a client application which can operate in stand alone mode if the server is not present. I am using windows sockets(winsock2) with TOracleSession and several DOA components.
The client tries a WSAStartup and then tries to connect. If this fails we call WSACleanup as the datasheet says you should. It is this latter that causes the problem because after that I am unable to access the database through the TOracleSession component. A test of CheckConnection givesthe result ssError. Trying to reconnect fails with a message that the object is not present. Examination of the OraccleSession's components shows nothing sinister and the Session itself is certainly there.
Anyone any ideas - I am not an expert on TCP/IP, sockets or Oracle Access so am interested in any information or suggestions any kind hearted member or administrator may have.
Thanks in advance.
