The same here again.
One other reason is :
"We have to implement a lot of new front-end features into the next
version of our app. Sorry but the technical layer of the app cannot be
upgraded since most of our resources and budget will be spent for those
improvements"
Result is that the app still operates under a 8i DB with noarchivelog
despite the fact that the datacenter guys and I claim it should
*really* be upgraded because the maintenance is getting more and more
costly day after day.
Even after several crashes involving data loss, no plan were proposed to migrate. It really doesn't make any sense.
