A standalone java application connects to a version 10.2.0.4 database via JDBC/Thin 11.2.0.1. The application runs on several machines. The machines have different Unix operating

Consistently, when trying to connect to the database, the application running on one specific machine fails with:java.sqI.SQLException: ORA-00604: error occurred at recursive SQL level 1

An errorstack trace for ORA-01882 identifies the failing statement.
