Apparently BROKEN_PIPE is a pretty generic error. Quite a few problems can cause this error. One problem BEA mentions is "if the database closes the connection". Does anyone have a suggestion for what I should reply to this? Are there any situations under which Oracle would close a connection? Would that event appear in any log?

Ian MacGregor Stanford Linear Accelerator Center [EMAIL PROTECTED] -----Original Message----- Sent: Monday, October 06, 2003 10:19 AM To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L Our web administrator was deploying a new J2EE application to production and received the error broken_pipe. We are using the thin client. Apparently Weblogic tries to verify existence the tables the application uses. The deployment was otherwise successful in that the error occurred several times when deployment was retried but testing the app worked fine. They feel it was a database error, but I don't see anything on my end. Naturally they are nervous about this error just going into a critical new application. Apparently if the database was down, this is the error returned on the Weblogic side, but the database was fine and I couldn't find any errors. I searched for broken_pipe on Metalink and the search returned empty. Has anyone had any experience with this Weblogic error? Dennis Williams DBA, 80%OCP, 100% DBA Lifetouch, Inc.
