I still think the web server should log the GET string to the
apropriate logs, and stuff like that -- I can't see how that could
depend on how the DB is set up.
O well, let's see if publishing this causes Oracle to do anything --
I've mailed and phoned their support about things that provokes
internal errors but they haven't answered (not even saying they where
looking at the problem). As I hear Oracle's support is good, they
probably just hates me.
Take care,
Simon
