Re: Prb: UID Fields Over 7 Chars - add transaction hangs

Follow-up...

Thanks to those who responded, especially Mr. Gibson-Mount and Mr. 
Styblik.  Without your pointers, I would not have resolved it.

I needed to apply the patches to Berkeley DB 4.7.25.  Specifically, I 
applied patches 1-3. Patch 4 would not apply; and, after seeing the "must 
have patches" e-mail trail from last December, I decided to try going 
without it. 

I suggest a change to the Administrator's Guide, section D.1, "Dependency 
Versions", to strengthen the language from "...highly recommended to apply 
the patches...". Perhaps an asterisk'ed (*) entry on the line for (BDB) 
4.7 to indicate that it's "mandatory" for that release. If there's a 
separate list I should address this to, please direct me.

Thanks again,
Dave

Did you fully patch BDB 4.7.25?  You must have the patches to it from 
Oracle for it to work right.
