Author ASP Oracle problem

Ok, I'll admit I'm VERY new to ASP but I simply cannot seem to get
this to work. The problem is probably obvious but I just can't seem
to find it. I'm trying to query an Oracle DB on another server but
none of my queries seem to work. What happens is that ASP/IIS times
out. In an effort to see what's really happening, I put the following
code in to see how many records were being returned by the query. In
EVERY CASE, the number of records is -1. I've even tried using
something bulletproof for my query like "SELECT SYSDATE FROM DUAL" I
know that the query shown here contains the correct table and field
names. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

In the following, the ASP/IIS times out if the "While Not..." is left
UNCOMMENTED. The line to print the recordcount was just added to
further define the problem.

<%
Dim adoConn

set adoConn = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
adoConn.ConnectionString = "Driver={Oracle ODBC Driver};"_
& "Dbq=EMSNTSRVR.WORLD;"_
& "Uid=username;"_
& "Pwd=password"

adoConn.open
Dim result
Set result = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset")
result.ActiveConnection = adoConn
result.Open "SELECT * FROM TALONSA.OPEN_PROBLEMS", adoConn,
adOpenStatic

'While NOT result.EOF
' Response.Write result("PROBLEM_SID")
'Wend

response.write result.RecordCount

result.Close
adoConn.Close
%>

Mike,

You need result.MoveNext inside the While / Wend loop

Try using a DSN-Less connection ( it is more efficient than the ODBC one)
<%
' Create and establish data connection
Set objDC = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
objDC.ConnectionTimeout = 15
objDC.CommandTimeout = 30

'Code to connect to Oracle Database instance
objDC.Open "Provider=MSDAORA.1;Password=secret;User ID=username;Data Source=yourtnsnamesentry;Persist Security
Info=TRUE"
%>

Also be sure the Oracle client on the IIS server's box is working correctly..

Could be a few issues:

1. Sounds like a problem with your TNSNAMES.ORA file on your IIS server.
From a command prompt, run the Oracle TNSPing utility to see if
EMSNTSRVR.WORLD resolves properly.

2. The Oracle client utilites need to be installed on the IIS server. You
should be able to connect to the Oracle server from the IIS server with SQL+.
