Oracle 8i listener issue: TNS-01168: Cannot allocate memory

We have a loader application coded in perl/c which connects to DB to load data from flat files. Whenever we have multiple such loader programs running, the listener dies and loading stops. The listener.log is around 2GB. I opened the loag and got following details:

Is there a known bug and if so what is the resolution? Will upgrading to Net 9i help?
Let me know if anyone has faced such issue and the resolution.
Thanks

alll listeners show the TNS-12531 cannot allocate memory message in the listener.log.Only a single listener is required.
How many listeners run on this system & why more than 1?

TNS:cannot allocate memory - is there limit to the num databases on one box

Hi,
Server Spec:
Windows 2008 R2 x64 with all updates applied
Oracle 11.2.0.1 Standard Edition with Patch 16 applied (which matches all of the live databases version)
10GB RAM
I have a standby server which has all my standby databases on it
I have recently added about 8 new standby databases taking it to 102 and since then I keep getting an intermittent TNS error; TNS-12531: TNS:cannot allocate memory
I have scripts that loop through all the databases one at a time, they start the standby database, apply new archived redo logs and shut the database down
This has worked perfectly for years but I started getting the issues after added a few more databases, it probably failes 1 in 3 times so it is not consistent.
With all of the databases just idling the server is using 6GB out of the 10GB available RAM so there is plenty of free memory
If I remove half a dozen databases from the scripts it starts to work again.
I created 2 new listeners and split the databases so half run on one listener and half on the other, it still has intermittent failures
Server has been restarted many times and sometimes will run through a couple of times before failing and sometimes will fail on the first run through
Failures are normally towards the end of the script, ie. has applied the logs to 95 databases and fails on the 96th!
I've reorded the databases in the script and it always fails towards the end, not on a specific database
I have also added restarts to the listeners during the scripts which made no difference
I have now ammended my scripts so the actual windows service is not running for any database and the script does a net start before applying the logs and a net stop afterwards. It now runs through without a problem but I would like to get to the bottom of the issue and keep the windows services running as starting and stopping them adds time to the job of apply the logs across all the databases
Thanks

NFSv4: cannot allocate memory errors when moving files

When I move a directory on an NFS client to another location then I can't create a file on that other location anymore:
[willem@venus ~]$ mkdir test
[willem@venus ~]$ mv test /pub/music
[willem@venus ~]$ cd /pub/music/test
[willem@venus test]$ touch a
^C
the touch command does nothing on the nfs client (it hangs, so I Ctrl-C).
When I logon to the NFS server the following happens:
[willem@titan W]$ cd /pub/music/test
[willem@titan test]$ touch x
touch: cannot touch 'x': Cannot allocate memory
[willem@titan test]$
This only happens if the mv command moves the directory over different NFS mount points.
I have an older arch NFS server with a 3 months old arch install, and this issue does not occur there.
If I mount the nfs client directories with nfsvers=3 in my fstab then it also does not occur, so it seems to be broken in a recent update in NFS4

I've tested using a very small SGA and PGA (200Mb and 100Mb), although normally I would have it set higher.

Thanks in advance.

Noting that you are using a IBM vm and a rather old one at that...
Threads take java memory. Normally the solution is to increase the maximum java heap. Doing that depends on the memory that the system supports and the maximum that the VM allows and the default that it uses.
You might want to verify the command line options you are using. You might want to also find out what happens if you use a larger number or smaller one.
And if all else fails you can use a thread pool rather than trying to create seperate threads.

Db_load error: Cannot allocate memory

Hi
when I try to import an dump file, i always get this error:
db_load: BDB2055 Lock table is out of available lock entries
db_load: Cannot allocate memory
I executed "db_load -f outdb/outdb2 -h env xass.db"
and i have set max locks by:
dbenv->set_lk_max_locks(dbenv,1000);
but it doesn't work.
What should I do to prevent this problem?
Thanks for your help in advance
Mark
Update:
I have doing some tests, and i found that if I increase the number of locks by "set_lk_max_locks" in DB_CONFIG file, the operation of db_load will success.
The point is that the larger db file may need a very big value of locks, so why "db_load" doesn't release the locks during the running procedure? Is this a bug for bdb?
becuase I can't increase the number of locks infinity!
if not, How can i cause "db_load" release the locks of transaction?
Does anybody can help me?
Mark

Hi Mark,
If you are importing a dump file into an existing environment and opened with the flags of(can have more) DB_INIT_LOCK | DB_INIT_LOG | DB_INIT_MPOOL | DB_INIT_TXN, then it is true you may see the error about "lock table is out of available lock entries" when the dump file is very big. The db_load process will not release the locks since it needs to provent other process from accessing the database being built to provide data consistency in the transactional environment.
The usually way for loading a database from a dump file is to specify an empty directory as the home directory. By this, the database will be created in a private non-transactional environment, and you can copy the database into your running environment after the db_load process finishes.

Safari - POSIX error 12 - cannot allocate memory

I am trying to use my ipod touch for the internet. When I try to go to a site I get the following error.
Safari can't open the page.
The error was: "Operation could not be com0pleted.
(POSIX error 12 - Cannot allocate memory)"
(NSPOSIXErrorDomain:12)
How do I get past this error

If you haven't already done so, I'd suggest rebooting your iPod. This isn't the same as turning it off with a quick tap to the button on top. Quite often a reboot of a computer will clear up a temporary memory issue. From the ipod touch manual:
Press and hold the
Sleep/Wake button on top of iPod touch for a few seconds until a red slider appears,
then drag the slider. Then press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo
appears.
Hope this solves it and you don't see the error again.

Do you know where to find the list or errors and correction?
How do you know on Safari if you are connected to the network ?
On my settings I got an IP address and all the parameters.

Error "ROW-00001 cannot allocate memory"

I am using oracle 10g and i got this error "ROW-00001 cannot allocate memory" when accessing dataset. What is the solution of this and concept behind it. Please help.

I have had a similar error with SQL Server 2005 (running on WINXP SP3) connected to Oracle 9i through a Linked Server.
I was originally using MSDAORA and was upgrading to OraOLEDB. There was a lot going on with my machine involving repeated installs/un-installs of the 9i and 10g clients so it's hard to pin-point the exact cause of this being broken.
Eventually I had the original linked server using MSDAORA and the new Linked served using OraOLEDB existing happily side by side. Then I started having problems selecting data.
I could still connect and select sysdate from dual through each linked server. Sometimes I could select data and then shortly after I could not. A reboot helped briefly but then the problems re-appeared.
The errors I got were:
- Using the original Linked server with MSDAORA
Msg 7399, Level 16, State 1, Line 1 The OLE DB provider "MSDAORA" for linked server "LNK_KADM01P" reported an error. The provider ran out of memory.
Msg 7330, Level 16, State 2, Line 1 Cannot fetch a row from OLE DB provider "MSDAORA" for linked server "LNK_KADM01P".- Using the new Linked server with OraOLEDB.
OLE DB provider "OraOLEDB.Oracle" for linked server "OLE_LNK_KADM01P" returned message "".
OLE DB provider "OraOLEDB.Oracle" for linked server "OLE_LNK_KADM01P" returned message "ROW-00001: Cannot allocate memory".
Msg 7320, Level 16, State 2, Line 1 Cannot execute the query "SELECT * FROM XYZ " against OLE DB provider "OraOLEDB.Oracle" for linked server "OLE_LNK_KADM01P". In the end I reinstalled the 9i ODAC/OLE client. When you run the installer it shows 5 ODAC/OLE subcomponents. I think when I had been installing earlier I had not been selecting each subcomponent, and so it was only installing the first one (which is for MS MTS).
I went through the install and specifically selected each one of the components. I'm pretty sure my problem was caused by only having the old 9.2.0.1 OLE client objects installed instead of 9.2.0.7. After the re-install and reboot it's been running fine, and coincidently data throughput has doubled.
I hope this is help to others. (Because I know how frustrating and painful this has been for me!!!)

On linux, Runtime.exec does a fork and execute. That means that you will need double what your current java process is using in virtual memory(real + swap). Given -Xms12g you will need more than 24g of virtual memory space for your code to work as written. And with vm overhead, more likely a few gigs more.Damn, that sucks. Will adding swap space alleviate the problem?
And if you know, does Windows do the same thing?You need at least as much virtual memory free as the parent process is using to do a Runtime.exec() on Solaris and Linux using Sun's VM. So increasing the swap to the point that there is as much free memory as the parent process is using should alleviate the problem. I agree that this sucks. Other VMs may not have this problem.
I think the Sun VM takes a different approach when it exec() a process in Windows.
One workaround is to run a small vm that acts a proxy. This small vm would listen on a socket and executes anything that comes in on that socket. So the 12g parent process would open up a connection to this small vm process and send the commands to it instead of Runtime.exec() and in turn the small vm process would do the actual Runtime.exec().
