Oracle 11g: ORA-12547 by DBCA

Hi all,
I am trying to create an Oracle 11g R2 Standalone Database with ASM
on Enterprise Linux 5.5 (64-bit).
I successfully installed the Grid Infrastructure and the DB software.
When I reached to creating db phase and the dbca started creating the db,
it retuned the following errors:
The note calimed the problem is in the privilege of
Here is the privilege of the folder in my system:
PRCR-1079: Failed to start resource ora.oradb.db
ORA-12547: TNS lost contact
CRS-2674: start ora.oradb.db on 'srv07' failed
How can I resolve the issue?
Thanks in advance.

Hi Mano,
Following is the output of what I have done (based on your suggestion):

  • [SOLVED] Sun Java System Application Server 9.1_01 and Oracle 11g:ORA-01017

    Hi,
    I'm trying to create a connection pool for an Oracle database (SID orcl) located on the same host as the application server.
    I provide the following database URL: jdbc:oracle:thin:MYUSER/myuser@localhost:1521:orcl
    (username/password MYUSER/myuser do exist, and connection is granted:
    grant connect to MYUSER;
    When I try to ping the connection pool, I get the following error: ORA-01017: invalid username/password; logon denied
    What's wrong?
    Thanks,
    Dmitriy

    ...No :-)
    Sun's app server (based on GlassFish) definitely tries to receive a Connection object from a javax.sql.DataSource object, not DriverManager (see sources, http://fisheye5.cenqua.com/browse/glassfish/appserv-tests/devtests/connector/embeddedweb/ra/src/com/sun/jdbcra/spi/DSManagedConnectionFactory.java?r=1.1.1.1 - createManagedConnection function:
    82      if ( isEqual( pc, getUser(), getPassword() ) ) {
    83      dsConn = dataSourceObj.getConnection();
    84      } else {
    85      dsConn = dataSourceObj.getConnection(pc.getUserName(),
    86      new String(pc.getPassword()));
    87 }
    The problem is probably caused by some kind of wrong parameter passing.

  • Oracle 11g, SRID & 3D-geometry

    Hi
    I migrated a spatial table from an Oracle 10 to an Oracle 11 database
    The table contains Multilines with M-values.
    I validate the Geometries with "SDO_GEOM.VALIDATE_GEOMETRY_WITH_CONTEXT"
    In Oracle 10: No Errors.
    In Oracle 11g:  ORA-54668:  2D SRID cannot be used with a 3D geometry
        Cause: A 2D SRID was used with a 3D geometry.
        Action: Replace the 2D SRID with an appropriate 3D SRID
    SRID is 82027 (In the spatial-Metadata-Table and in each SDO-Geometry-Object)
    82027 means "GK Zone 3 (DHDN)". It is an projected cartesian system.
    What to do?
    -> I dont't find any appropriate 3D-System
    -> I don't want Oracle to use the M-values for any puproses at all.
        To me it would be fine, if oracle-saptial ignores the M-Value for it's internal calculations (index, length,...)
        M-Values are only interpreted by the appliaction.
    Any advise?
    Bye, Benedikt

    Hi Benedikt,
    What is the SDO_GTYPE on your geometries? I am betting that perhaps the second byte on the GTYPE is zero (e.g. 3006) rather than the proper 3 (3306)? I am thinking also that this data may have originated from ArcSDE? ArcSDE has an ancient bug that loads all LRS data with just the zero rather than specifying which dimension has the LRS value. So Oracle Spatial sees 3006 and thinks you have X,Y and Z rather than X,Y and M and thus 11g polices things more thoroughly to make sure your SRID supports 3D actions.
    Note that ArcSDE is due to fix this bug (NIM045781) - hmm. Wait a second I THOUGHT they were due to fix this bug in 9.3.1 SP2 but now I see no mention of it! :_|
    http://downloads2.esri.com/support/documentation/ao_/9.3.1_SP2_Announcement.pdf
    Oh well. So you need to update your SDO_GTYPE by hand using something like:
    (table is foo and geometry column is shape)
    UPDATE foo a
    set a.shape.SDO_GTYPE = TO_NUMBER('33' || SUBSTR(a.shape.SDO_GTYPE,3,2));Hope that helps.
    Hope that's the issue.
    Cheers,
    Paul

  • Error message "ORA-12547: TNS:lost contact" during dbca

    Background info: I am building a new test 11.2.0.3 RAC cluster running on IBM pSeries hardware with AIX 6.1 OS level. I need to practice building a cluster and then adding a new node later. Because of limited hardware availability, my inital cluster will have 1 node and I will add the additional node later.
    I installed Grid Infrastructure successfully. GI and ASM are online and appear to be working normally. Today I installed the 11.2.0.3 database software. I am now trying to create a test database using DBCA. After entering all of the database information (SID information, where db files should reside, memory sizing, etc.) the database creation begins, then immediately issues the error message "ORA-12547: TNS:lost contact".
    I have searched MOS (Metalink) and also reviewed a few sites using Google. All of the information indicates this problem occurs most often when trying to log into an existing database using sqlplus. I haven't found anything related to this error message during database creation.
    Does anyone have advice on how to troubleshoot where the problem is coming from? Can you point me to some documentation that would help with this issue?
    Any and all help is appreciated. Thank you!

    Srini,
    I was verifying that I understood your request. The last install log relates to the Oracle db software installation and was created by OUI. The DBCA utility has not created any actual install logs. DBCA issues the error less than 10 seconds after I choose the "Finish" button to begin the database creation process. I also reviewed 4 notes on MOS and unfortunately they do not seem to apply. The permissions settings appear correct on all directories for both the database software owner and the grid infrastructure owner as well.
    Here are the last 200 lines from the OUI install log. Thank you again for all of your help!

  • ORA-12547 error while creating new database through dbca

    i installed oracle 10g R2 on parallels virtuozzo container. (it is a product similar to openvz and solaris containers)
    added: oracle version is 10.2.0.1.0
    the installation goes off without too much fuss but when i try to create a general purpose database through dbca it throws up an error
    ORA-12547 : TNS lost contact
    my listener is up and runing and did stop and restart it. i also created a new listener after deleting the previous one.
    still the error persists.

    The command completed successfullyi am running dbca from oracle user only and i did ensure that the contents of the oracle home directory (on which oracle is installed) has permissions of oracle:oinstall.
    i am clueless as to what is causing this error.
    just to add to issues which i faced during installation on virtuozzo containers. containers does not allow me to create a swap space. but i had to ignore the error and go ahead with the installation with most of the steps followed from http://wiki.openvz.org/Oracle_10g_VE.
    please guide
    Edited by: iinfi on May 19, 2009 4:53 PM

    hi all
    virtuozzo during creation of containers doesnt install the following.
    sysstat-5.0.5-1
    libaio-0.3.103-3
    libaio-0.3.103-3 (i386)
    libaio-devel-0.3.103-3
    the oracle documentation tells us to install the following and so i didnt know i had to install other packages as well.
    make-3.79.1
    gcc-3.2.3-34
    glibc-2.3.2-95.20
    compat-db-4.0.14-5

  • DBCA Producing ORA 12547 TNS lost contact when I try to create a database

    Hi all!
    I just installed Oracle 11GR2 (only software not creating a database) on Oracle Linux 6.4 64 Bit via Oracle VM VirtualBox. I created a new Listener to create a database. It looks working. But when I try to create a new database with dcba; I had an ORA-12547 TNS lost contact after I had specified all options for creating the database. I'm too new to get what's going on here. Already, the Oracle Software has occured a few errors while the installation. But the software has been installed successfully at the end. Maybe I went wrong from the beginning. What should I do about managing that ORA error? Can anybody suggest me something?
    Btw I have installed the all installations with information on this link: ORACLE-BASE - Oracle Database 11g Release 2 (11.2) Installation On Oracle Linux 6
    If we consider that I did nothing after those installation, what should the next step be to create a database successfully?

  • Kerberos Authentication between Sharepoint 2013 Foundation - SSRS 2012 - Oracle 11g failing with ORA-12638: Credential retrieval failed

    I have set up SharePoint 2013 Foundation, SharePoint Reporting Services and SQL Server 2012 in a single server. I then created a Data Connection to Oracle 11g. Upon testing the connection, it throws the error “ORA-12638: Credential retrieval failed”.
    Given below are the steps of installation and configuration.
    Installation till basic authentication:
    The installation has been done in a
    single server.
    Installed SQL Server 2012 (Developer version).
    Selected only the following features:
    Database Engine Services
    Analysis Services
    Reporting Services – SharePoint
    Reporting Services Add-in for SharePoint Products
    Management Tools – Basic
    - Management Tools - Complete
      2. Installed SQL Server 2012 SP1.
      3. Installed SQL Server 2012 SP2.
      4. Installed SharePoint Foundation 2013.
      5. Created web application (without Kerberos; we did not even create the SPNs).
          The application pool has been configured to use Reporting Services account since it is a single server installation. This account has been registered as a managed
    account.
      6. Created Site Collection.
      7. Verified that Reporting Services is not installed.
      8. Installed SharePoint Reporting Services from SharePoint 2013 Management Shell.
      9. Verified that Reporting Services is installed.
     10. Created a new SQL Server Reporting Services Service Application and associated the Web Application to the new SQL server Reporting Services Service Application.
      11. Verified that SQL Server Reporting Services Service Application and its proxy have started. Reset IIS.
      12. Created a Site.
      13. Created a Data Connection library with “Report Data Source” content type.
      14. Created a Report Model library with “Report Builder Model” content type.
      15. Created a Report library with “Report Builder Report” content type.
      16. Uploaded an SMDL to the Report Model library.
      17. Added the top level site to Local Intranet instead of as a Trusted Site in the browser settings.
      18. Able to create and save a report using Report Builder.
    Hence, basic authentication is working and SSRS is able to connect to Oracle database.
    Next we have to configure Kerberos settings between SharePoint and SQL Server.
    Implementation of Kerberos authentication
    In the Report Server machine, opened the file C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\15\WebServices\Reporting\rsreportserver.config  and added the Authentication Types of RSWindowsNegotiate
    and RSWindowsKerberos.
     2.  Set up the following SPNs.
                   a) SQL Server Database Engine service (sqlDbSrv2):
                    setspn -S MSSQLSvc/CER1110:1433 CERDEMO\sqlDbSrv2
                    setspn -S MSSQLSvc/CER1110.cer.demo.com:1433 CERDEMO\sqlDbSrv2
                 In the Delegation tab of the account, selected "Trust this user for delegation to any service (Kerberos only)".
    b) Account: SharePoint Setup Admin account (spAdmin2)
         setspn -S HTTP/CER1110:9999 CERDEMO\spAdmin2
                    setspn -S HTTP/CER1110.cer.demo.com:9999 CERDEMO\spAdmin2
                    In the Delegation tab of the account, selected "Trust this user for delegation to any  service
    (Kerberos only)".
    c) Account: SQL Server Reporting Service account (sqlRepSrv2)
                       setspn -S HTTP/CER1110 CERDEMO\sqlRepSrv2
                       setspn -S HTTP/CER1110.cer.demo.com CERDEMO\sqlRepSrv2
                       In the Delegation tab of the account, selected "Trust this user for delegation to any service
    (Kerberos only)".
      3. Configure the Web Application to use “Negotiate (Kerberos)”.
      4. Logged in as SharePoint Administrator to the SharePoint server and opened the top level site in the IE browser.
         The Event Viewer logged the login process for the SharePoint Administration account as
    Negotiate and not Kerberos.
      5. Implemented Kerberos for Oracle database and client.
         Able to connect to the Oracle database via Kerberos authentication using SQL Plus.
      6. Turn on Windows Firewall.
      7. While testing the site's data connection using Kerberos settings, got the error
    “Can not convert claims identity to windows token. This may be due to user not logging in using windows credentials.”
          Note: The Data Connection for basic authentication still worked.
      8. Created a Claims to Windows Token Service account (spC2WTS2).
      9. Started the Claims to Windows Token Service.
     10. Registered the Claims to Windows Token Service account as a Managed Account.
     11. Changed the Claims To Windows Token Service to use the above managed account.
     12. Verified that the Claims to Windows Token Service account (spC2WTS2) is automatically added to the WSS_WPG local group on the SharePoint box.
          Note: The Reporting Services service account is also a part of the WSS_WPG local group.
     13. Added the Claims to Windows Token Service account (spC2WTS2) to the Local Admin Group on the machine having the SharePoint App Server.
     14. In the SharePoint box, added the Claims to Windows Token Service account (spC2WTS2) in the Act as part of the operating system policy right.
     15. The Claims to Windows Token Service account (spC2WTS2) has the WSS_WPG group configured.
          When the C2WTS service was configured to use the managed account Claims to Windows Token Service account (spC2WTS2) earlier, the spC2WTS2 account was automatically
    added to the WSS_WPG local group on the SharePoint box. The WSS_WPG group in turn is configured in c2wtshost.exe.config file.
     16. Verified that the Reporting Services account is a managed account and part of the WSS_WPG group.
     17. Earlier Service Application Pool - SQL Server Reporting Services App Pool service was associated with the SharePoint Admin account.
          Changed this to associate the Reporting Service account with the Service Application Pool - SQL Server Reporting Services App Pool service.
     18. Changed the delegation of the Reporting Service account to constrained delegation with Protocol Transitioning. This is because we are transitioning from one authentication scheme (Claims) to another (Windows Token).
          For this, the delegation has been changed to "Trust this user for delegation to specified services only". Also, selected the sub radio button "Use
    any authentication protocol". Selected the Oracle Kerberos service as the service to which this account can present delegated credentials.
          Note: The Reporting Service account already had an HTTP SPN.
     19. Next, the goal was to make the Claims To Windows Token Service account match the Reporting Service account.
           For this, we created a fake SPN for the Claims To Windows Token Service account since the delegation tab was missing.
           The delegation has been changed to "Trust this user for delegation to specified services only". Also, selected the sub radio button "Use any
    authentication protocol". Selected the Oracle Kerberos service as the service to which this account can present delegated credentials.
     20. Restarted the SharePoint server.
     21. Tested the data connection with the Kerberos settings again.
           Got the error
    “ORA-12638: Credential retrieval failed”.
    Can anyone tell me what is wrong with this setup?

    http://www.freeoraclehelp.com/2011/10/kerberos-authentication-for-oracle.html
    Problem4: ORA-12638: Credential retrieval failed
    Solution:  Make sure that SQLNET.KERBEROS5_CC_NAME is set in sqlnet.ora and okinit has been run before attempting to connect to the database.

  • Repeated ORA-12547 Messages after installing Oracle 10g

    Hi,
    I installed Oracle 10g on a Redhat ES 3 box, and the install went okay, but when I try and interact with the server I get the message:
    ORA-12547: TNS: lost contact
    For example, if I use the Database Configuration Assistant to attempt to create a database, I will see the above message when it begins the database creation process, or if I try to interact with the Oracle server using sqlplus I will see the above message after each command entered.
    I had recently tried to install Oracle 8.1.7 on the same box, but abandoned that after deciding that the effort required to link Oracle 8 on RHES3 just wasn't worth it. I have been told that this previous partial installation may be the cause of the problem, and have been advised to uninstall Oracle 8, uninstall Oracle 10g, and reinstall Oracle 10g. I find it hard to believe that it would require such an action to solve this problem. Is there any configuration changes I can make to resolve it? Also, what does this message actually mean?
    I am new to Oracle, so thanks for any help with this problem.
    Colm.

    My last message asking for a grater degree of specificity was not overly specific, hence I am posting the kernel parms that I have set with the hopes that you will spot one that I set improperly or one that I neglected to set.

    My problem sounds like it may be similar problem to a recent posting by Hugo Ferrer - but my Spanish isn't good enough to fully understand Hugo's problem. Anyways, I am new to Oracle, so thanks for any help with this problem.

  • ORA-12154 error when trying to connect to Oracle 11g DB from Excel 2010

    All,
    I am trying to set up Excel 2010 64-bit to connect to an Oracle 11g database, but am having some trouble due to an "ORA-12154 could not resolve the connect identifier specified" error. I am able to TNSping the SID name, as well as connect to SQLplus. The TNS entry works, and the Oracle Home is in the right spot. I am even able to put the full connection string in the "Data Source" field when creating a data link in Excel and have it connect to the DB. But I would like to be able to create one that used the SID rather than the full connection string, as other users will have to use this. The developer behind the Excel solution created a number of .odc files to connect to various databases, so this gives extra weight behind figuring out how to connect via a SID rather than a full connection string. Any suggestions?

    If you are able to connect with sqlplus, then this really becomes a question of how to define a data connection in Excel.
    But after quickly googling ..
    In excel ...
    "Data" tab
    "from other sources"
    "from data connection wizard"
    select ODBC DSN
    On data link properties, select the "connection" tab
    select "Use Data Source Name" and hit the drop-down
    select a dsn that you had previously set up to point to the oracle database.
    Anyway, that looks like how it is supposed to be done.  I'm getting a dll initialization error.  Probably due to the fact I have both 32-bit and 64-bit oracle clients, and windows never handles that very gracefully.  But then Windows never graceffully handles anything that isn't MicroSoft.   To paraphrase Forest Gump, "My momma always said Windows was like a box of chocolates.  You never know what you're going to get."
    In any event, the error you report means it was actually tying to look it up in tnsnames, but what you supplied wasn't found there.  That can also be a big issue when dealing with MS products, because they don't use the same terminology, so lead people into entering something other than what Oracle expects.  Are you referencing an ODBC DSN?  If so, have you tested that apart from Excel?
