When Oracle database 11g tries to write to the share a message is returned stating it cannot access the file.
- Samba share with user and password defined
- Windows Server 2008 R2.
- All files are accessible (read, write, delete) with Explorer
Solution:
The application cannot write to shares that are mounted as a drive letter.
For example:
C:\destination or \\open-e\share\destination is correct, but
\\open-e\ E:\destination (share mounted as E: ) causes failure.
