Dave, The error suggests something coming back from the first Oracle server. I would start by searching the oracle docs for that message.

I'm trying a connection string: create database link prodlink connect to <myusername> identified by <mypass> using 'PROD'; and getting: Error Executing Database Query. Executing the SQL statement is not allowed. The problem is that I am not the admin and have little oracle experience. The DBA has little CF (or even web) experience. It sounds like to me there is a permissions error in either the oracle DB, or in CF. I'm not sure which. Of course i'm crunched for time. Any ideas?
