Form Opening while Webutil

Question

Hi All,
When running a form which is attached with webutil.pll, i tried placing the Pll alone in the bin and ran it but it opened with error "when-custom-item-event trigger ora-06508". I had tested this in the sample form provided by ORACLE in OTN i.e WU_TEST_106.fmb.
I generated a plx for the same pll and kept it in the bin and it started working fine. Why is this behaviour. There is only version of PLL in the Forms_Path Variable of my ENV file. This is happening in Windows 2003 Application server.
Please share your thoughts and views on this issue.
Thanks in advance

hi
try to create webutil user and try to compile it with webutil user may it helps u.
its something like this and run the following sql in database.
creeate_webutil_db.sql
