I have been running an MFC application that accesses an Oracle 11g database via an Oracle ODBC datasource for years with no major problems. I have now installed the same application on Server 2008 Standard (32-bit) and I get a lot of intermittent ODBC errors that say: "Unable to create file buffer". I think the problem is that the ODBC driver either can't create an ODBC temp file or can't sometimes create a unique temp file name. I have no idea why, though. The ODBC connection DOES work much of the time because transactions are going through but I get A LOT of the ODBC exceptions which, I think, is contributing to an unreliable operation environment. Our application crashes sometimes under modest load now. I'm using ODBC driver: 11.02.00.01 4/2/2010 for Oracle 11g. Not sure if this is a server 2008 thing or a driver thing. Would like a suggested work-around or a fix.

Hi, As this issue mainly related to Oracle, please contact Oracle to troubleshoot this issue. Tim Quan
