Ditto.  We are fighting this same issue.

No, I cannot think of any real impact this would have.  How would the
app even know if the database it's connected to is 64-bit or 32-bit.  I
think the vendor is being ridiculous...but that's just me...;-)

Hi All,

 

We have setup a 64-bit Linux server with 64-bit Oracle 10g binaries.
The vendor has now come back and said they do not support the database
running as 64-bit, even though there are no application components that
run on the database server.  Are there any differences in datatypes
between 64-bit and 32-bit database software?  My understanding is that
they are identical to the client.  Can you think of any problems that
32-bit client software, or jdbc connections would have with connecting
to a 64-bit database on a different server?  

 

Thanks,

Mike
