Marc,
I'm working on obtaining the call stack...  :-)  This was reported by an
external user and I haven't reproduced the problem yet.  DB2 is much easier
for me to access than Oracle...  :-)

I had searched for an answer about valid primary key types for Oracle, but I
didn't find anything that was definitive.  I saw similar questions, but
nobody has answered that specific question yet.

Does Oracle even support blob primary keys? My recollection is that
it didn't...

I suspect that the problem might be that since Oracle has a number of
problems with in-line blobs in statements, we frequently issue a
separate statement to load and store blobs from and to rows, but if
it is the primary key, then we might be conflicting with that. Can
you post the complete stack trace?
