Hey all,
While trying to debug a particularly nasty old app, I ran across this on doc
77442.1 on MetaLink:
Please note that we don't advise to use a version 9 listener for a version
8 database
or a version 10 listener for a version 9 or 8 database seen there where many
changes
to the NLS layers between those versions.
As Moe Syzlak says, "WHAAAAAA??!?" This is exactly opposite from everything
else I've heard, although to be fair, I can't recall exactly where I've
heard that. That and the fact that we haven't been using the ORA_NLSxx
variable since it starting cauing problems when we migrated from 7.3 to 8.0,
which accoring to this doc, is a no-no.
Comments?
