Hi Mark, I would try using a blank Receive String first, cut your problem in half.

 

Sometimes the Send String is incorrect/malformed, sometimes the Rec string is incorrect. Get a successful Send string first, then work on the Rec string.

 

Browser plug-in decoders do not always show ALL the control characters, so you might have to use TCPdump on the big-ip or the OAM server to properly decode the traffic. Hint: a missing or extra "space" can be the difference sometimes with these Send/Rec strings working or not - Ugh!!

 

We are working on this in the OAM Dev lab with Oracle, so we should have some specific guidance soon, but no ETA.

 

Please let us know what you find works, or not !!

 

Thanx,

 

Chris.
