Hi,
a different point: make sure the (host = ) part of your ADDRESS_LIST is correct, it seems the listener tries to bind to a host/port combination that does not exist. Don't use localhost there or nobody will be able to connect to the database which is probably not what you what.

Martin

ORA-12516, TNS:listener could not find available handler Weblogic error

Hello,
I have a wierd issue while setting up a datasource in weblogic.
The database am trying to connect to is an Oracle DB and am using a LDAP based URL as the datasource URL in weblogic.
Service name : PSG03900_PEWTER_APPL.WORLD
The LDAP url given was jdbc:oracle:thin:@ldap://oid_ldap_server_ln.csfp.co.uk:1522/PSG03900_PEWTER_APPL.WORLD,cn=OracleContext,dc=uk,dc=csfb,dc=com
driver oracle.jdbc.xa.client.OracleXADataSource
When am trying to setup the datasource and test the connection configuration the test is successful. However when I try to activate the changes I get the following error:
An error occurred during activation of changes, please see the log for details.
weblogic.application.ModuleException:
Listener refused the connection with the following error: ORA-12516, TNS:listener could not find available handler with matching protocol stack The Connection descriptor used by the client was: (DESCRIPTION = (SDU = 8192) (TDU = 8192) (ADDRESS_LIST = (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = PSGLOD2008-SCAN.AP.HEDANI.NET)(PORT = 1522)) (LOAD_BALANCE = ON) (FAILOVER = ON ) ) (CONNECT_DATA = (SERVICE_NAME = PSG03900_PEWTER_APPL.WORLD) (FAILOVER_MODE = (TYPE = SESSION) (METHOD = BASIC) (RETRIES = 20) (DELAY = 5))))
The DBAs have confirmed to me that the database setup on their side is correct as they are able to do a tnsping and sqlplus connectivity succeeds.
I have also tried accessing the database through PL/SQL developer and am able to login however the weblogic activation fails for some wierd reason.
Could I request someone to enlighten me what I am missing here? I have been at it for days now.
Many thanks.
Best Regards,
Vinod

Hi Kishore,
Thank you for the response.
The number of processes has been set to 500 and number of sessions set to 792 and currently the utilization has just reached 15% of the limit set.
We are using Weblogic 9.2 and trying to connect to Oracle 11g database, could the Oracle thin client being used in Weblogic have any issues connecting?
Many thanks.

Installation of Oracle 8.1.17 on Redhat Linux Enterprise Edition 2.4

dear all
I have tried to Oracle 8.1.17 on Redhat Linux Enterprise Edition 2.4 but it gives an error "Error in invoking target make file .."
I tried using retries it failed each time to prorceed.
I checked for my binutils ( binutils-2.14.90.0.4-26 ) but mine are higher than binutils-2.11.90.0.8-13.i386.rpm required ..
do i need to down grade my binutils for 8.1.7
abhi

Hi Abhi!
If I remember correctly (817 is stone age) the binutils used a strange debug flag in the 2.11.90.0.8-13 (something with -z).
If this is not present in your newer version of the binutils the make will fail.
Try downgrading the binutils during the installation.

What's the error you get? Any relevant entries in log files? Did you perform any change on this account lately? if so, how did you do that?

Oracle 8.1.5 with redhat 6.2

I am currently running 8i 8.1.5 straight from the CD w/o any patches on red hat 6.0. When I tried applying the patches a while ago, nothing would work. Anycase for what I am doing all works very well. My question is simple. Can I upgrade to redhat 6.2 and have 8i 8.1.5 still function or will 8i break??
thanks

I was receiving the same problem. I finally got around it by setting up my environment - ORACLE_HOME, LD_LIBRARY_PATH, etc.. to my new ORACLE_HOME before I ran the installer.
I also got through it alot faster when I did the install under a new user - not oracle.
The only env var that was identical to the
oracle users environment was TNS_ADMIN.

Oracle 8.1.16 on RedHat 7.0

Hello, i've managed to install Oracle 8.1.16 on RedHat 7.0 after numerous installation and going thru all the work around provided by those who have posted their message here.Thanks u guys.
Anyway, I still having problem starting the db. Running svrmgrl,then connect internal works fine..but type-in startup...and there are no response at all(checking the pid just give me [oracle<defunct>].
And i have problem with TNS: could not resolve service name even thought i've edited listener.ora and tnsnames.ora as required but I'm not sure wether i've edited it right.
Can some one post to me the right listener.ora and tnsnames.ora files.
Thank u for your help.

I have the identical problem, the database hangs up initializing. Your description is exactly as I see it, with svrmgrl not able to startup...have you made any further progress ?
Thanks Art

HELP! Can not install Oracle 8.1.5 w/ RedHat 6.1!

I can not get Oracle 8.1.5 to install onto Linux RedHat 6.1. The
Oracle installation script generates several errors. I have
tried several attempts, using different options, but they all
generate errors.
Please help. The Oracle Installation scripts appear to be very
buggy... or perhaps they are incompatible with the standard
RedHat 6.1 release. Either way, it is very frustrating.
I have documented one of my (failed) installation attempts below.
Does anyone have any words of wisdom?
I am installing Oracle onto a Dell Latitude CPi PC w/ 128MB RAM,
a 366MHz Pentium II, and RedHat 6.1 (using the standard Linux
2.2.12-2 kernel). RedHat was installed using the standard "Gnome
Workstation" configuration.
The Oralce CD is labeled:
"Oralce 8i Enterprise Edition
Release 8.1.5
for Linux
(c) Oracle Corporation 1999"
I got this CD about one week ago at Oracle OpenWorld '99 in Los
Angeles... it should be their "latest & greatest" version so far.
1. Pre-Installation and ./runInstall
I created an "oracle" Unix account w/ groups "oinstall" (the
primary group) and "dba" (a secondary group).
I created directories /u01 through /u04, belonging to oracle.
I setup .cshrc and sourced it, containing:
umask 022
setenv DISPLAY `hostname`:0
xhost +
setenv ORACLE_BASE /u01/app/oracle
setenv ORACLE_HOME ${ORACLE_BASE}/product/8.1.5
setenv ORACLE_SID cprtest
setenv PATH ${ORACLE_HOME}/bin:${PATH}
setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH ${ORACLE_HOME}/lib
setenv NLS_LANG US7ASCII
I downloaded jre116_v5 and installed to /usr/local/jre.
Finally, I executed (from the "oracle" Unix account):
cd /mnt/cdrom
./runInstall
Problem: I got the error (from ./runInstall):
Initializing Java Virtual Machine from /usr/local/jre/bin/jre.
Please wait...
Error in CreateOUIProcess(): -1
: Bad address
Workaround: Executed the following commands instead:
cd /mnt/cdrom/install/linux
./runIns.sh
3. runIns.sh and root.sh
I selected the following options (from ./runIns.sh):
Source: /mnt/cdrom/stage/products.jar
Destination: /u01/app/oracle/product/8.1.5
Oracle 8i Enterprise Edition 8.1.5.0.0
Typical (585MB)
Installable Components: Oralce Intelligent Agent 8.1.5.0.0
Global Database Name: cprtest.parkrussell.com
SID: cprtest
Directory for Database Files: /u02
Then (when instructed by ./runIns.sh), I attempted to execute
(from the
"root" Unix account):
cd /u01/app/oracle/product/8.1.5
./root.sh
Problem: I got the error:
"bash: ./root.sh: Permission denied"
The execute bit was not set.
Workaround: I executed:
chmod a+x root.sh
./root.sh
5. Configuration Tools
The Oracle Installer (./runIns.sh) attempted to execute:
A. Net8 Configuration Agent
B. Oracle Database Configuration Agent
Problem: The "Oracle Database Configuration Agent" failed with
the following error message:
"One or more tools have failed. It is recommended but not
required that these tools succeed for this installation.
You can now select these tools, read its details to examine
why they have failed, fix those problems, and retry them.
Or, you can click "Next" to continue."
When I selected the "Oracle Database Configuration Agent" for
more info, I got the following additional details (as the cause
of the error):
"A required command line argument is missing."
The log file
"/u01/app/oracle/oraInventory/logs/installActions.log" recorded:

Workaround: There is obviously nothing I can do to fix this
problem. It appears to be an internal bug in ./runIns.sh.
Therefore, I selected "Next" and executed "dbassist" directly.
6. dbassist
I executed:
dbassist
Problem: I got the following error:
"JNLS Execution:oracle.ntpg.jnls.JNLSException
Unable to find any National Character Sets. Please
check your Oracle installation."
Workaround: Press "OK" and ignore the error.
7. dbassist (cont.)
I selected the following options:
Create database
Typical
Copy existing database files from the CD
Global Database Name: cprtest.parkrussell.com
SID: cprtest
Problem: I got the following error:
"CD-ROM drive not detected on this system.
Database not created."
(Note: I've been running the installation scripts from the
CDROM drive this entire time. "df" shows the CDROM drive
mounted on /mnt/cdrom. "ls /mnt/cdrom" works too.)
Workaround: Abort (which generated the additional error: "Unable
to create database. DBCA-00003: No CD-ROM drive detected.") and
run dbassist again, this time using different parameters.
8. dbassist, again
I executed "dbassist" again and selected the following options:
Create database
Typical
Create new database files
Hybrid
Concurrently connected users: 5
Options: Oralce interMedia, Oralce JServer, and iM demos
Global Database Name: cprtest2.parkrussell.com
SID: cprtest2
Create database now
Problem: I got the following error:
"ORA-01012: not logged on"
Workaround: Try, try again.
9. dbassist, one last time
Executed "dbassist" once more and selected the following options:
Create database
Typical
Create new database files
Hybrid
Concurrently connected users: 5
Options: Oralce interMedia, Oralce JServer, and interMedia
demos
Global Database Name: cprtest3.parkrussell.com
SID: cprtest3
Output creation script
Then, I executed (from the "oracle" Unix account):
cd /u01/app/oracle/product/8.1.5/install
setenv ORACLE_SID cprtest3
./sqlcprtest3.sh
Problem: I got the following output:
"Oracle Server Manager Release 3.1.5.0.0 - Production

Workaround: Beats me.
10. sqlplus
I attempted to execute sqlplus, but got the following error
message:
"/u01/app/oracle/product/8.1.5/bin/sqlplus: Permission denied."
The execute bit was not set.
Workaround: I executed:
chmod a+x /u01/app/oracle/product/8.1.5/bin/sqlplus
sqlplus
I gave up for now... there were just too many things wrong with
this installation, starting with the very first command I was
supposed to execute (./runInstaller).
I can't fathom why Oracle's installation script has so many bugs.
Am I just doing something terribly wrong?
Please help.

I'm using enlightenment version 0.15.5-41, which is more recent
than the 0.15.5-37 version (containing the Oracle installer
patch) that you recommended. Unfortunately, it fails when using
this version.
I also tried installing Oracle using twm, with enlightenment
disabled. This didn't help either.
Furthermore, the errors that I'm encountering in the OUI are
not just toward the end of the installation. They happen from
the very beginning, right after I enter "./runInstall", and
continue every step of the way.

I think 6.2 is easier, just follow read me instruction, on redhat 7.0 you must run patch to downgrade glibc from 2.2 to 2.1

Hallo !
Three weeks ago I had successfully installed Oracle 8.0.5 on RedHat 6.1; some tips:
As described in ftp://ftp.oracle.com/pub/www/otn/linux/README download the five compaitibility RPMS
compat-binutils-5.2-2.9.1.0.23.1.i386.rpm
compat-egcs-5.2-1.0.3a.1.i386.rpm
compat-egcs-c++-5.2-1.0.3a.1.i386.rpm
compat-glibc-5.2-2.0.7.1.i386.rpm
compat-libs-5.2-1.i386.rpm
(I have got them from
ftp://ftp.tuwien.ac.at/opsys/linux/redhat.com/dist/old-releases/redhat-6.0/i386/RedHat/RPMS/
and install them.
The glibcpath.tgz is available from OTN. Install it as described in the ORACLE RAEDME.
Good luck !
