Oracle Error :: ORA-27140 attach to post/wait facility failed

Hi Guys...
I have a problem when I connect to my database...
I get the error mentioned above...
What might be the problem?
Please help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What are permissions to $ORACLE_HOME/bin?
Should be something like this:
ls -ld $ORACLE_HOME/bin

If any one know this error

we solved the problem by resetting the permissions on the oracle executable as described underneath in the first solution mentioned.
The error ora-27140 is due to the lack accessibility to oracle
executables.
1. Please make sure that all oracle executables has permission as per
the note mentioned below.
583861 UNIX: Errors due to Oracle executable
(chmod 6751 oracle) Owner ORA<SID>
2. If the problem is not solved with this, please download the latest
patch level of the BR*tools as per SAP note 12741.
" Check the owner, the group and the permissions for sapdba and the br*
tools as described in Note 113747.
(Up to 4.6D, the same settings were valid for sapdba as for brarchive
and brbackup, but this has changed with the transfer of the command lin options to brconnect.)
File libsbt.* is a dynamic backup library (DLL). By default, it is not
used. For more information about this library, see Note 142635. The
settings for this are:

ORA-27154: post/wait create failed

hi
i am runing Oracle 9i R2 on SunOS 5.9 , i tried to startup my database and it gives me this error:
ORA-27154: post/wait create failed
ORA-27300: OS system dependent operation:semget failed with status: 28
ORA-27301: OS failure message: No space left on device
ORA-27302: failure occurred at: sskgpsemsper
i have no space problem in my server , i have another database running on the same server without any problem.
any suggestions !!
thanks in advanced..
wisam

what are the effects of increasing the semmni and the semmnsMore memory (some KBs likely) allocated by the kernel.
and do i have to reboot the server ?!.Yes (from Oracle doc: If you change the settings, save the /etc/system file and restart the system.)
accually i have 4 databases in this server . does this make deferent ?From http://download-uk.oracle.com/docs/html/A96167_01/pre.htm#CHDCEHBG
The SEMMNS parameter should be set to the sum of the PROCESSES parameter for each Oracle database, adding the largest one twice, and then adding an additional 10 for each database.

ORA-27146 Post/Wait Initialization failed

Hi all,
I had a problem when trying to startup 2 database at Solaris8 machine. Please help me to solve this problem.
Problem:
I have created 2 database seperately. But I couldnt started up those 2 database at the same machine. Like either one is alive but not second one. When I startup the second database, got this error message : ORA-27146 Post/Wait Initialization failed.
I have tried to increase the sizes of System file variables at /etc/system, but its not.
I dont know the calculation for those variables when I use 2 or more instances.
Environment : Solaris8 / Oracle 8.1.5.
Please let me know if you need more clarification of problem.
null

its a resources issue. change the init.ora file for resources such as db block buffers, processes, etc. you will be able to start the instance.

Using PreparedStatement and the Oracle Error ORA-1000

Hi,
I have a question about PreparedStatement objects that is not so simple to explain for me. What I would like to know is: if I use a PreparedStatement following traditional and generic steps:
1- PreparedStatement pStmt = Connection.prepareStatement(sQuery);
2- pStmt.setXXX(i,j);
n - pStmt.setXXX(i,j);
n+1 - ResultSet rs = pStmt.executeQuery();
n+2 - while(rs.next()){ ... retrive ResultSet data ... }
n+3 - rs.close()
n+4 - back to point number 2
and at the end (as you can see in the point numbered n+4), instead of closing the PreparedStatement pStmt using the close() method, I reuse the PreparedStatement pStmt comeing back to the point numebr 2 and setting again all its parameters with new values ... then ... what heppens in the Oracle database ? Has been the cursor (so the mamory area), associated to my PreparedStatement object pStmt, duplicated or is it the same ?
I know that Java allows you to do this kind of operations with PreparedStatement, and I know that in tha Java Documentation is explained to follow this strategy to optimize the execution time because in this way the same PreparedStatement is precompiled and prepared only once. But if I do a for loop following the steps explained before, after many iterations I have the error "ORA-1000: maximum open cursors exceeded". This error is the reason of my question. Does this error means that it's mandatory to close a PreparedStatement always, otherwise if you reuse it without closing it then the corresponding database cursor will be duplicated ? If it is so, then I think this is a contradiction with official java documentation ...
I'm using Oracle8i (version 8.1.7) and Oracle JDBC Thin Driver (Windows NT) for use with JDK 1.2.x. Moreover, in my database istance the parameter "maximum open cursor" is equal to 800 ...
Thank you very much for suggestions :-)

There is no need to close a prepared statement or its resultset for every iteration.
After the first iteration in a loop, all subsequent executions of it will close the previous resultset. By adding close() method, you are making one extra costly call to the DB for no reason.
Following is the sample code.I know what you are saying. In fact at the beginning I wrote my code in the same way of your sample (see the code of my first post at the begin of this page).
But doing so, after thousand iterations of the loop, I had "Oracle Error ORA-1000 : maximun open cursor exeeded" even if in my database istance the parameter "maximum open cursor" is equal to 8000.
At this moment in my code, for each iteration, I close the PreparedStatement and in this way I don't have anymore the error :-((
So it seems that only in theory we can reuse a preparedStatement without closing it. In fact if we see the oracle system table "$open_cursor" (as Konrad Pietzka suggest me) we can find that, for each interation,
at our line code "rs = pstmt.executeQuery();" correspond a new cursor in the database: this means that for each method "pstmt.executeQuery()" the database open a new cursor and do not use the previous one as it should.
I posted a question two months ago to search if someone had the same problem (it seems that Konrad Pietzka had the same situation) and was able to explain me what is the cause.
The only reason I found by myself for this problem, is that probably the Oracle JDBC Thin Driver for Windows NT/2000 has some bugs... but I'm not sure ...
Thank you very much for you time !!
bye :-))

Oracle Error :: ORA-12637 Packet receive failed

Hi buddies,
One of my staff's PC is receiving this error sometimes when she is trying to connect to the database and she is able to connect sometimes.
Oracle Error :: ORA-12637 Packet receive failed What could be the cause.
I tried replacing her tnsadmin with my tnsadmin and it didn't make a change, still able to connnect sometimes and sometimes not.
Able to connect using PL/SQL developer, but not using our customized application. (Everyone else are able to connect)
Is it network problem?
Please advice.
Thank You very much.

And from this cut-and-paste the OP is supposed to take what actions to solve the problem? Please don't just post that which is one google away every time someone posts an ORA- exception. You make some valuable contributions here but just posting expanded text doesn't give someone a list of actions to take that will help them resolve the issue. Better the question is left unanswered so others will be more likely to offer help.
To the OP:
It is highly likely you have a network issue and the fact that it is isolated to a single machine makes it reasonably easy to fix. First try to figure out which component is failing. Go to the router or switch and swap wires between that client machine and another one that is working properly. Does the problem move? If not then swap the wires. Again does the problem move? Next the NIC card? What if you put another machine on the desk and put the original hard disk in it?
Sometimes it just isn't worth the effort so you just swap out the machine.
Intermittent problems are always hard to identify and fix. What is on your side is that this is only affecting a single user.

Urgent-Oracle Error :: ORA-39778-

Hi
I got following Oracle Error : ORA-39778 "the parallel load option is not allowed when loading lob columns" on production. yesterday we updated database with patchset 9.2.0.7 and DST/JVM compliant.
Please reply me ASAP.
Regards,
RJ

Sry I didn't check back this afternoon.
As posted,
Here's the note from metalink doc Note:396387.1
Then e this to apply the files manually in the following way:
Download the identified patch.
Unzip the patch, and locate the 2 files timezone.dat and timezlrg.dat in the "files/oracore/zoneinfo" directory of the uncompressed patch (or from the relevant .jar file of a patchset). If there is also a readme.txt in this location then make a note of this as well.
Backup your existing files in $ORACLE_HOME/oracore/zoneinfo - THIS CAN BE VITAL, DO NOT SKIP.
Copy the 2 .dat files and possibly the readme.txt file that were found in step 2 into the $ORACLE_HOME/oracore/zoneinfo directory.
Restart the database (in case of installation on a database), or restart the client applications (in case of client install). Note that the database did not need to be down before the time zone files were applied, but it does need to be restarted afterwards.

Oracle error ORA-22905: cannot access rows from a non-nested table item

Creating a report using oracle plsql code .
Getting error ;
Oracle error ORA-22905: cannot access rows from a non-nested table item

basically I have a proc which takes 2 parameters(a and b)

culprit code which is giving me the error and on google they say cast it but I dont know how to do it in my context

'Abc','def',
data sample returned from this;SELECT * FROM THE (SELECT p_cd_common.get_table_from_string(P_b) FROM dual)
'fgd','fth',
Any answers ?
How to pass data in clause in a better way

Why are you creating a duplicate post? I already asked you to post p_cd_common.get_table_from_string. In particular what is function return type and where it is declared. As I already mentioned, most likely function return type is declared in the package and therefore is PL/SQL type. And TABLE operator can only work with SQL types.

Oracle error ORA-01461when trying to insert into an ORACLE BLOB field

I am getting Oracle error ‘ORA-01461: can bind a LONG value only for insert into a LONG column' when trying to insert into an ORACLE BLOB field. The error occurs when trying to insert a large BLOB (JPG), but does not occur when inserting a small (<1K) picture BLOB.(JPG). Any ideas?
BTW, when using a SQL Server datasource using the same code.... everything works with no problems.
ORACLE version is 11.2.0.1
The ORACLE datasource is JDBC using Oracle's JDBC driver ojdbc6.jar v11.2.0.1 (I also have tried ojdbc5.jar v11.2.0.1; ojdbc5.jar v11.2.0.4; and ojdbc6.jar v11.2.0.4 with the same error result.)
Here is my code:
<cfset file_mime = Lcase(Right(postedXMLRoot.objname.XmlText, 3))>
<cfif file_mime EQ 'jpg'><cfset file_mime = 'jpeg'></cfif>
<cfset file_mime = 'data:image/' & file_mime & ';base64,'>
<cfset image64 = ImageReadBase64("#file_mime##postedXMLRoot.objbase64.XmlText#")>
<cfset ramfile = "ram://" & postedXMLRoot.objname.XmlText>
<cfimage action="write" source="#image64#" destination="#ramfile#" overwrite="true">

<cfquery name="InsertImage" datasource="#datasource#">
INSERT INTO test_images
image_blob
SELECT
<cfqueryparam value="#image_bin#" cfsqltype="CF_SQL_BLOB">
FROM dual
</cfquery>

Can't you use "alter index <shema.spatial_index_name> rebuild ONLINE" ? Thanks. I could switch to "rebuild ONLINE" and see if that helps. Are there any potential adverse effects going forward, e.g. significantly longer rebuild than not using the ONLINE keyword, etc? Also wondering if spatial index operations (index type = DOMAIN) obey all the typical things you'd expect with "regular" indexes, e.g. B-TREE, etc.

Work around/Alternate solution for Oracle error ORA-01460 and ORA-02063

After the installation of Oracle.DataAccess version 2.111.7.20, I get the following error.(the code worked fine with Oracle.DataAccess version 9.2.0.700 )
I have attached the error as well as the sample code.
ORA-01460 and ORA-02063 are known bugs in the new ODP but would like to know if there is any Work around/Alternate solution for this problem(other than
the use of stored procs)..
Thanks!

mBSConnection.Open();
oRdr = Valid_FieldData_Command.ExecuteReader(); ->Error occurs here
The error occurs whenever the length of any of the parameter is increased. But there is no specific length where it is breaking down.
For example in this case, it breaks down with the given error if
agencyID > 8
agencyName > 6
fieldNumber > 9
uniqueid > 6

The problem was mapping input parameter type.
VARCHAR2-type mapping input parameter works with String-type PF parameter. But CHAR-type won't.

Oracle error ORA-604 when opening a connection

I am facing an issue with my WCF service which is using ODP.NET version 4.112.2.0(x64) and Oracle 11g.
The service runs without any problems on the test servers but on production server (Windows 2008 R2) when an attempt is made to call any service method it fails with the following Oracle error code Ora-604. the message is
ORA-604: error occurred at recursive SQL level %s
The exception is thrown when a call to meethod Open is made to open a connection.
There is no inner exception. So far I have tried checking the connection string, the user permissions and setting the TNS_ADMIN environment variable but nothing has worked.
Another thing to mention is that another WCF service which uses some of the same stored procedure I am using is working fine on the same server.
Has anyone seen this before?
Thanks,
A

Do you have a login trigger?
select * from dba_triggers where triggering_event like 'LOGON%'
If so, try disabling it.
Does the working service use the same credentials as this problem service?
Are you able to connect using sqlplus, with the same credentials from the same client to the same database? If it's not an ODP.NET specific problem, the dba guys might be able to help better: General Database Discussions

Database error"ORA-00060: deadlock detected while waiting for resource"

Hi All,
I got dump as
Database error text........: "ORA-00060: deadlock detected while waiting for

Internal call code.........: "[RSQL/RDUP/NRIV ]"
Please check the entries in the system log (Transaction SM21).
An exception occurred that is explained in detail below.
The exception, which is assigned to class 'CX_SY_OPEN_SQL_DB', was not caught
in
procedure "READ_NRIV" "(FORM)", nor was it propagated by a RAISING clause.
Can u ppl tell me how to get correct this?
Edited by: Bala Chandar on Jul 20, 2009 11:01 AM

Hi Bala,
Same type of dump we got when we trigger the DTP which in process chain to load data from DSO to Info cube. And the load had processed with 225 data package and at 164th data package we got this error and except 164th data package all data package processed successfully
And the request was red. So we had done processed manually by clicking the icon. So all its been green and successfully loaded.
So when you do process manual the particular data package which got failed will be process successfully

Oracle error ORA-00600 when using Oracle 10g and Sun One Web Server 6.1

I have a java application that was running under Solaris 8 and Oracle 9i. I am trying to get it up and running on a new server that is configured with Solaris 9 and Oracle 10g. Whenever the application tries to connect to the database it receives the following error: ORA-00600 [ttcgcshnd-1][0]. My research indicates that this is an internal Oracle error that represents a low level unexpected condition. I have looked through my configuration for the Web Server and I have not been able to determine the cause of this problem. My DBA tells me that we have the latest patch installed for Oracle! Has anyone encountered this problem before? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

If the problem is also present in a SWING app, i.e. outside the web server, then it is porbably something external to the webserver.
I think you should ensure that the driver and database are compatible with each other. It is very likely that you need a new jdbc driver for the new database.
