Without seeing more information, I have seen this type of a response where either the instance is not registered with the listener, or the db is not accepting connections for a variety of reasons (e.g. no more memory all the way to the db is shut down).

These pieces of code are doing an "insert into as select" across a database link. The data is being pushed, not pulled. They have been running for months in production without a problem. Suddenly, they start throwing these errors, but will often succeed on the retry. Anyone have a similiar problem? thx, jack __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
