Cfprocparam and ORACLE

Question

I need help with an error I am getting;
I am calling an Oracle DB procedure in a package(people)
PROCEDURE version_info (version OUT VARCHAR2) IS
BEGIN
version := people.ask_version;
END version_info;
*****The procedure calls a function which also returns a
VARCHAR2*****
On calling the procedure from my CF page
<cfstoredproc procedure="people.version_info"
datasource="#thedsn#">
<cfprocparam cfsqltype="CF_SQL_VARCHAR" type="out"
variable="version">
</cfstoredproc>
I get the following error:
Error Executing Database Query. - [Macromedia][Oracle JDBC
Driver][Oracle]ORA-01008: not all variables bound
I have just read live docs (6.1) and the binding should work.
Can anyone help please

Answer 1

Nothing obvious, but a couple of things to consider. Does
this procedure return the correct value when called from SQL Plus?
Also, what happens if you replace the function call in your
procedure with a constant, so that you are setting the value of
version with a known value? Is the function inside the
procedure being called accross a dblink? When I searched Oracle
Metalink I got quite a few hits on this error, and below is just
one sample:
Symptoms
A stored procedure calls an overloaded function that is in a
package. Some of the tables use a dblink to access data in an
8.1.7.4 remote database. The first time the stored procedure calls
the function, it works fine. Subsequent calls to the same function
results in the error:
ORA-01008: not all variables bound
In the absence of very much information, if the answer to my
first question is no, and the procedure returns a good value when
using a constant, then I would suspect the function call inside
your stored procedure as being the problem area.
