[comp.databases] ORACLE problem using embedded sql in C under Sun 3.5

kornfein@england.crd.ge.com (10/19/89)

We are running a large C application using a large Oracle database.  The
database has almost 500 tables about 250 of which are accessed by this 
application program.

We recently started getting an Oracle error -3106 on a few embedded SELECT 
commands.  The error manual indicates indicates "fatal two-task communication
protocal error" and says to contact Oracle customer support. So far Oracle 
customer support has not been of help, and with the earthquake we do not
expect to hear much from them soon.

The error while occuring in the same places seems
to be random in that the tables which it strikes occur early and late in 
running the application, also many SELECTS are successfully processed in 
between the ones that fail.  


Anyone seen this before. We are running Unix on a SUN OS version 3.5

Any ideas or suggestions? E-mail is fine for responces
