re: because there are two db links in a row, connectivity failed It sounds more plausible that connectivity broke on one of the legs; that is, the fact that that there are two db links in row may not matter. Iggy

11.2.0.4.15 (and newer) has known issues on ms win. If one applied the 11.2.0.4.15 patch against one db and attempted to access objects in it across a database link from say a database of version 11.2.0.4.10 ... You're going to have a bad time.

I patched our databases on unix and on windows.... now one app won't work because it goes like this: From 11.2.0.4 Unix --> db link --> 11.2.0.4.16 on win32 view + db link --> 10.1 on (something, it's another organization's site). (no I can't tell them 10.1 is no longer supported etc., cue the funeral parlor music) Well because there are two db links in a row, connectivity failed after the latest 11.2.0.4 PSU was applied and I upgrade the database from 11.2.0.3 to 11.2.0.4. The latest psu was applied to 11g on win32, no change. Any ideas? Maybe there's a patch I don't know about to fix this. Meanwhile I suggested to the developer that he might want to use mviews instead of views in the middle, but it would be easier if we just fixed that bug.
