External Tables on Windows

243661Jul 26 2004 — edited Oct 4 2005
I have Oracle loaded on a Unix server. I am trying to execute stored procedures using External Tables. My external table directories reside on a Windows OS. While I was successful in creating the external tables and the logical directories mapped to the OS drectory, I was not able to execute the procedure. It came up with errors.
I have the necessary grants on these directories.

The procedures runs successfully if the directories are created on the Unix box

14:41:21 Start Executing PL/SQL block ...

I have checked the read/write permissions on the Windows folder and they have full access

It is critical for me to make it work on a Windows platform
