Error editing post

Hi. I have Jforum 2.1.6 installed on a solaris machine, running oracle application server 10g, and oracle database 10g.

The problem i'm having is that when I edit a post, and submit the modification, it overwrites the previous description of the post, instead of replacing it.

Eg.

I submit the following description: "I like Jforum",
Then I edit the post and submit this description: "hello".

Instead of getting "hello", on the description of the post, i get this: "helloke Jforum".

Please, if anybody has had an error like this, could you help me fix it?

I don't know if this is an application bug, or a bad configuration from me.

Thanks in advance.

I haven't tested JForum on Oracle. But I can't see what should cause this in JForum. Have you tested a manual override of this field with an Oracle client?

I can recommend HenPlus which also will communicate via the JDBC-driver you are using (Oracle is famous for their rotten jdbc-drivers)

I found a solution to the problem. I don't think it's the best solution but it works.

Will this work on Oracle 9 and backwards do u think?

If so, please add this as a bug in Jira.

We applied fixes to Oracle some months ago.. version 2.1.7 should work fine.

However, please note that all this mess is caused by the jdbc driver built by Oracle.
