Hi,
Our WMB version has recently been updated from version V8.0.0.1 to V8.0.0.2. The message flows were also modified based on the project requirement. Now we are facing an issue - we are getting [Oracle] Connection Dead error if the flow is idle for some time.
In windows development workstations this happens for the first message after the broker being idle for some time (around half an hour). When i debug it gives proper error message and from next message onwards it starts working. But in Unix test env (where we have configured multiple instances of the flow) , the broker seem to get hung around the DB call - and I have to restart the broker each time to resume the processing. The DB connection is made from subflows. Can you please help to get a workaround/solution for this issue? We are connecting to Oracle (11g) DB using DataDirect Oracle WireProtocol (64 bit). |

I would recommend switching ODBC tracing on and analyzing the result.
Just a question: did you check network connections when the error occured, e.g. with netstat? |

we had enabled odbc trace and the following error was there in the ODBC trace
Exit:[SQL_ERROR]
DIAG [08S01] [IBM][ODBC Oracle Wire Protocol driver'[Oracle]Connection Dead.
DIAG [HY000] [IBM][ODBC Oracle Wire Protocol driver'[Oracle]Network Operation Timed Out.
But the network was working fine - I even tried mqsicvp and there was no error. What i thought is even if the connection is dead, driver will handle it internally and will try to reconnect.
Also in unix the broker was not picking any messages after this issue - i had to manually restart the broker. |

I am not getting any clue on why this is happening.I have added parameter "WorkArounds=536870912" in the odbc file , but still am facing some issue - but now I am getting [unixODBC][ibm][ODBC Oracle wire protocol driver][Oracle]Network operationTimedout error for the first message and that too is happening after some time (i believe driver/broker is waiting till default timeout before throwing this error).
And i got this link from internet http://knowledgebase.progress.com/articles/Article/000029398 which doesnt help much..... |

firewall in b/w the WMB server and the Oracle server removing any idle connection - In this scenario my assumption was that WMB or the driver will retry and establish a new connection and this operation will be transparent to the application - Is my understanding correct?
And how to contact the DataDirect Driver team - do we have any forums for this ?
THis issue is killing me as I need to provide the solution now.... 
Note 1 : the odbcv7.ini sample file is not packed in WMB V8.0.0.2 and is available in V8.0.0.3 as a fix. |

You can address the IBM / WMB support team with your problem, because this ODBC driver is a supported component. |

Hi Tibor,
Would you please guide in detail, what parameters to check from netstat command in situation of Database exception?
We are working with WMB 8.0.0.2 and upgraded to use V7 driver instead of default V6 ODBC driver. We are facing the mentioned below error occasionally without any other proper hint.

We need to manually run the mqsisetdbparms command again with the same user id and password and restart the broker to resume operation. |

ghoshly,
Could you post the result of command mqsicvp BRKNAME -n ODBCNAME ? |

@ ghoshly,
If we are updating the driver, then i don't think there is any need to setup DB params again - it is for a particular broker that we set the DB params (unless some has changed the password or is using wrong DSN).
Note : Actually I am facing a totally different issue. |

I understand it can be different issue. I am not saying that it is definitely causing because of driver update. Currently we reverted back to V6 driver to check and confirm. We need to identify the reason behind the issue.

| I just want to confirm, that in my case, there is no change in oracle user / password in recent times and we are not facing the issue all the time, rather ocassionally. Once we get the error, we need to run mqsisetdbparms again. |

If it happens only accidentally, seems very strange for me. There should be an error message in the database logs at the same time. I'm sure you can find an explanation for this behavior. |
