Question

Ok, this seems simple but I can’t find a solution to save my life. I am trying to do a very simple INSERT query on an Oracle DB. I can log into the DB in TOAD with the same credentials as I use in the code and run the INSERT with no problem, so as near as I can tell there are no permissions issues with the credentials and the query itself is syntacticly correct. When I try to run the below code, it just hangs. No errors or anything. I can see the session pop up in TOAD so as far as I can tell the code establishes the connection with no problem. Here is the code:

        String connStr = "Data Source=DB;User id=<USER>;Password=<PASSWORD>;";
        String query = "INSERT INTO table (fields) VALUES (values)";

        OracleConnection conn = new OracleConnection(connStr);
        conn.Open();
        OracleCommand cmd = conn.CreateCommand();
        cmd.CommandText = query;
        cmd.CommandType = CommandType.Text;
        cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
        conn.Close();
        conn.Dispose();

I have also tried using an ADO connection and got the same result. Any ideas are appreciated.

Have you committed or rolled back the transaction in Toad? Your application could be waiting on a lock held by your session created by Toad.
