    connections differences between 8i and 9i

    Hello all, I have a old application that works with Oracle 8i but when I
    use the same application on Oracle 9i I get an error when I try to connect -
    [Error while trying to retrieve text for error ORA-03113]. This
    application is on a HP Unix box and is connecting to Windows NT Oracle
    database.

    There is no difference in the way the application attempts to connect. Its
    only when I point this app to Oracle 9i does this become an error.

    Thanks
    Chris Greaney

    You'll need to find out what version of sqlnet/net8/net you are using.
    Likely you don't use 8i drivers. Sqlnet 2.3 against 9i databases
    doesn't work and is not supported. I'm not sure about 8.0
