Oracle link lines matter

(aka "there's more than one way to link it, but most of them are wrong")

anthony, 2000-06-01: I've found you can make a huge difference to the stability of your Zope installation by linking with the correct set of Oracle libs. There's a number of combinations that will work, but will crash under high load (thread-safety?).

Ones that we've found to work:

  • for Solaris and Oracle 8i, link only with -lclntsh. At least one version of a Setup file said to use -lnjni8. We found that this would work, but would crash under load.
  • for Linux and Oracle 8.0, link with -lclntsh -lcommon -lcore4 -lnlsrtl3. This seems to work, and work more reliably than the default suggested version.
