Houw did you use <dtml-try>/<dtml-except> ?

What error do you get from Oracle ?

I'm not sure about DCOracle, but I have hade similar uncatchable
behaviour when 
some underlying libraries don't catch the error but print it to stdout
instead.

I even had PoPy just drop dead and produced _no_ output whatsoever - my 
bug-report on it lingers on sourceforge for months ;(
