C# Executable File Name Length Causing ODBC Exception

I have a C# project that connects to an Oracle server using ODBC

Everything works fine if I keep the file name length less than 23 characters (including ".exe")

If the executable file name exceeds 23 characters this I get the following oracle exceptions

ORA-00604: error occurred at recursive SQL level 1
ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error
ORA-06512: at line 24

This behaviour is observed only for a particular oracle database server .

I have tried changing the connection string and other such options but nothing works.

You mean the length of the name of your program determines if you can connect to oracle or not?

Yes .. I know that sounds very wierd...But thats what has been observed

re: C# Executable File Name Length Causing ODBC Exception

I beleive it is on the Oracle side, since the same code has no problems in connecting to a different oracle server

re: C# Executable File Name Length Causing ODBC Exception

Perhaps different versions of oracle are running? Or on a different operating system?

re: C# Executable File Name Length Causing ODBC Exception

The app was running for a long time on that server .and suddenly stopped running because of this error.

I am thinkin an update patch or an antivirus patch on the server may have caused this error

Perhaps they restructed some directories on that server causing the full path+filename string length to be outside of oracle capabilities?
