The manual stated to be GLOBAL_NAMES compliant which means DBLINK=target DB_NAME and SID cannot start with a figure. I strongly suggest to pay a careful look to manuals as Streams has a lot of others tricks under the hat awaiting for you.

Persistent Layer Error Message: ORA-01729 database link name expected

Hi,
I've done a series of loads from DB2 into Oracle, initially importing the database objects from DB2 and Oracle, then creating the mappings, deploying and executing. It all worked and I had no problems. For some reason now whenever I tried to import a new Database Object (table) from the DB2 I enter the password, test it and it successfully connects but then I get the error message on a popup box:
SQL Exception
Persistent Layer Error: SQL Exception
Class Name: CacheMediator
Method Name: getSQLResult
Persistent Layer Error Message: ORA-01729 database link name expected
If I create a new location for the same database it works and I can import new objects. The only difference I can think from the initial imports is that I’ve moved the repository from one server to another. Might be the case where some information got corrupted in the metadata.
Has anyone seen this kind of problem before? Can you please help me out with this issue?
Thanks in advance for your help.
Regards,
Leo

I found it.When I look at the db links there is something missing.When I correct it everything works fine.

Standard Data Collection Failing with Error ORA-04054: database link does not exist.

Hi Gurus,
When I am running Standard Data Collection in ASCP(APS) instance R12.1.3, its failing with error : ORA-04054: database link does not exist.
There is no such Database link exits which is showing in above error.
Also the database link name in the above error is not profile values in the database.
I think, concurrent might be fetching this database link name from some tables related to plan.
I am not having much knowledge about how this ASCP/APS works.
Need your help to resolve this issue.
Thanks,

Hi,

Database link name does not work with JDBC.

Hi,
I am new to Oracle database. I run a query from a Java class and after waiting around 20 minutes then it returns "ORA-04021 timeout occurred while waiting to lock DBMS_LOCK" error. The query is:
select r2.EXTERNAL_ID, d.EXTERNAL_ID AS ISIMPORTED from (select external_id from results r1
where r1.*run_id = ?* and not exists
(select id from results@cdata where external_id = r1.external_id and run_id = r1.run_id)
order by r1.external_id) r2 left join dummymaindata d on r2.external_id =d.external_id;
In this query I use a database link to access another database. The strange thing is at least for me, if I use "@cdata" it always gets stuck for at least 20 minutes and end with an exception "ORA-04021 timeout occurred while waiting to lock DBMS_LOCK" but if I use any combination of the database link name instead of the "@cdata" for example "@CDATA", "@Cdata", "@cDaTA", "@CdaTa" etc., it works fine without any exception.
This starnge behavior is only with this query for using the database link name while with any other query it does not matter that how I do write the db link name.
Kindly answer.
Arshad..

Hi,
1) What is your Oracle, JDBC driver, target Oracle (to which you are connecting through DB link) versions?
2) Are you using DBMS_LOCK somewhere in the code? PL/SQL procedures on the source/target servers?
3) Can you construct a complete reproducible test case?

Problems with query via Database-Link (Oracle 7.3.4)

I made the following simple query via database-link.
select count (*) from [email protected]
I got the result in about 200 miliseconds.
Then I4ve tried the following query.
select * from [email protected]
It took about 2 hours end ended with an error message "ORA-03113: end-of-file on communication channel"
So I made another choice
select * from [email protected] where rownum <=1
Took about 200 miliseconds.
So I made the query again an changed only the number of rownums,until I was at rownum <=8
then it went sleeping again(I've canceled the statement because I didn't want to wait 2 hours again).
We made the same things from another server with the same database-link on the same remote server
and we had no problems.
Any Idea???

No, network is OK!
Other links are running, I have also no problems when I connect directly to the remote server.

Oem 12.1.0.3 installer fails with ora-01017

Greetings,
I am attempting to upgrade my OEM 12.1.0.1 installation to 12.1.0.3. I am following the instructions in the Oracle Enterprise Manager Cloud Control Upgrade Guide and Oracle Support Note 1568143.1. I have verified that all prerequisites are met and have installed patch 11061801 to the repository. The repository and OMS are on different machines. The 12.1.0.1 installation is able to connect to the repository, it has been running successfully for some time now. On the OMS server I stopped the OMS and the Agent and I invoke the 12.1.0.3 installer. I follow the steps and when it gets to the connection page it fails with ORA-01017. The messages are shown -
1. Verify if the SYS password you entered is valid.
2. Verify if the database initialization parameter REMOTE_LOGIN_PASSWORDFILE is set to either Shared or Exclusive.
3. Verify if a password file with the file name orapw<SID> exists in the <ORACLE_HOME>/dbs directory.
All conditions are met:
-bash-3.2$ echo $ORACLE_SID
oemrepos
SQL> connect sys as sysdba
Enter password:
Connected.
SQL> connect sysman
Enter password:

SQL> show parameter remote_login_passwordfile

-rw-r----- 1 oracle dba 1536 Jan 30 2013 /usr/local/oracle/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/dbhome_1/dbs/orapwoemrepos
I am able to connect remotely from another machine. sqlplus is not installed on the OMS server.
I am completely stumped and in need of assistance. Searching the web only indicates that I need to insure that the above listed conditions should be met, they are. If anyone has any suggestions I would appreciate the help.
Thank you.
Bill Wagman

On repository server , can you login as sys user ?
Try to connect through listener and share the result.

SAP BW Query failing with ORA ERROR

Is it due to any patches missing on AIX/oracle?
Any idea guys? Looks like some oracle/AIX error?

Hello Shrinath,
please post the following content.

Maybe you have reached the maximum number of asynchronous I/O requests.
For example in our SAP environments the following parameters are set
shell> aioo -a
               minservers = 8
               maxservers = 400
               maxreqs = 1228

Problem with making a database link.

Hello All
I got a problem with making a database link.
When I execute this query
CREATE PUBLIC DATABASE LINK DBNAME
CONNECT TO database IDENTIFIED BY name
USING 'DBNAME.europe.company.com';
I am using other names because its private information
But when I look at the table dba_db_links I see this
OWNER | DB_LINK | USERNAME |HOST
PUBLIC| DBNAME.europe.company.com| name| DBNAME.europe.company.com
So the DB_Link name is changed. And this causes a problem with my asp website. I get the fault message
ORA-02085: database link DBNAME.europe.company.com connects to DBNAME
Cause: a database link connected to a database with a different name. The connection is rejected.
The global_names = true and I prefer to keep it that way.
So does anyone knows what is wrong about my Query or how I can change the DB_Link name.
Thanks for the support,
Remco

Thanks for the help Mohit
But thats whats I was doing.
The query in the first post is the same as what you are posting.
But by an (for me) unknown reason the database converts DBNAME to DBNAME.europe.company.com

All scheduled jobs started suddenly to fail with ORA-01031: insufficient pr

I have a setup of gridcontrol 11g on windows 2008. I've been running successful for weeks until the other day when all my scheduled jobs started to fail with
ORA-01031: insufficient privileges (rman jobs)
ERROR: Invalid username and/or password (sql scripts).
I verified for the accounts being locked, pw correct, expired / grace period, etc.
all good when I try from the command line. running an rman backup from the command line works great, but the same one through the job scheduler fails with ORA-01031.
I've dropped the jobs completely, recreated them again. same thing.
I'm using preferred credentials and dropped and recreated them. same thing.
I don't know where else to look. Only grid control scheduled jobs fail, but all of them do.
I'm using SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICES= (NTS) in my sql.ne (always have).
we use a windows domain server / domain authentication for logging into boxes. I haven't changed any of my passwords.
I am probably looking in the wrong places. Anybody able to help?

Hi,
ERROR: Invalid username and/or password (sql scripts).This error message clearly tells that password is incorrect and "insufficient privileges" shows that perhaps you are using SYS user for running the jobs and password for user SYS is incorrect.
If you are specifying passwords in your scripts, i don't think you need to set preferred credentials.
Try following
1) Remove preferred credentials
2) Don't check password of user sys by locally logging in (because if Os authentication is on, even wrong password will allow you loging into the database and you will think that password is correct). Try connecting database using SYS user from a remote machine and check whether it accepts your password and make sure you have same password for your jobs and in sql scripts
3) If still problem, just for test, remove SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICES= (NTS) and try
