Forum OpenACS Q&A: Re: Selecting an empty (null) oracle-clob crashes AOLserver on Linux

Sounds like you're likely encountering an AOLserver Oracle driver bug, but version 2.6 of the driver is truly ancient. I suggest trying the latest Oracle driver from SourceForge CVS. If that doesn't fix the problem, you should probably submit a bug report on SourceForge. If it does fix the problem, you should probably bug the AOLserver maintainers to release a more recent version of the Oracle driver as a tarball for download.
