Oracle... one DB connects, one does not...

All,

I have a rather stange problem. I have a database on LINUX that we created. We then exported data from a VMS database and imported it to the Linux database. I can connect just fine in SQL*Plus... but our JDBC application is freezing up when trying to issue a query.

What is *really* odd is:

1. After about 12 hours of inactivity, it starts working ok again. So something is getting reset. We have been trying to figure out what it might be, but we have yet to be able to do so.
2. We created another database, on the same box, with the same configuration, and imported the data again from the same dump file and we don't have the same problem.

Any ideas???
