I’m doing and application in which I need to establish a connection with an Oracle database. I was already capable of doing that perfectly with a software using Qt and the QOCIDriver, which means I both have the correct data to connect (username, password, etc.), as well as that my computer is capable of doing this correctly (i.e., the Oracle Client is correctly installed, etc.).
But now, when I moved to do the same in my ‘Borland C++ Builder 6 application’, using the Zeos library, I couldn’t, with the Oracle database returning the error ORA-01017.
I ask myself what could be happening of wrong… I did a research on the web regarding this error and I found out that this is a particular message for a multitude of possible errors, most of which I’m not in position to check and correct – the database is located in a remote, private-access computer -, while at the same time without any clue about which of them is more probably true. Since I have quite a little time to solve this problem, any help indicating the most probable solution would be very thanked
Notice that I use the Zeos library to perform connections with a MySQL database with success – which means I know how to correctly program the library to perform such connections as well that the files used by Zeos library to do the connection are not too much old, minimizing the probability of this being a problem related to file incompatibility. The problem is happening only and particularly with the Oracle database.
Thanks,
