I''ve been struggling with this for the last week. I''m trying
to install
new helpdesk software that connects to an Oracle database on another
system. In all of the following instances I am able to run SQL Plus and
connect to Oracle.
1) Originally I had version 0.8.8 of the xenpv drivers, but the system
was loading without /gplpv switch. When running the helpdesk setup it
would take several tries just to get past the oracle authentication
step. Once I would get past it, then it would complain about various
other issues.
2) With the help of another thread, I was able to get 0.8.8 xen drivers
removed. I started the setup and was able to get by the login without a
problem. I shutdown the machine and backed up that instance of my img
file.
3) Next I installed 0.9.10 of the xen drivers. With these installed I
was able to get past the login on one shot. The setup continued as I
would expect. When it started doing the actual install, it bombed losing
connection to the database. I tried several times and it continues to
lose connection.
4) Down the machine and bring up the version with no xenpv drivers. Last
night, in step two I had no problems with the login. Trying again this
morning, I again can''t get past the login, although I can login fine
with SQL Plus.
5) Went back to my XenPV 0.9.10 version of the machine. Installed
wireshark and captured communication to database server. Also ran a
continuous ping from dom0 to domU. Now the installation went without a
hitch.
I''m assuming the continuous ping made the difference, but it certainly
concerns me. Anyone have any ideas or suggestions for determining what
the problem really is?
Thanks,
James
