Paused for Flow Control but no flow occurring

10.2.0.2
Our destination database had problems this AM and it was bounced. The capture process on the source went into "Paused for Flow Control" status and never recovered. Here's the process I went through.
1. There was nothing being propagated according to v$propagation_sender.
2. The apply process was running but was not receiving any messages according to v$streams_apply_reader, v$streams_apply_server
3. I stopped and restarted the apply process - no change.
4. I stopped and restarted the capture process and after the dictionary initilization it went back into the paused state.
5. alter logs showed nothing for either database.
6. dbms_propagation_adm.stop_propagation resulted in an ORA-24082
I finally had to run dbms_propagation_adm.stop_propagation with force=>true and restart it for data to start flowing again, albeit slowly.
So the question is - why? Why did I have to forcefully stop the propagation process and restart it when this is all supposed to be seamless? Is this expected behavior that others have run into and the proces you need to perform whenever your destination becomes unavailable for a time period?
Just curious.
Thanks - Brian

I've tried setting up a Streams for schema replication and have run into the "Paused for Flow Control issue". I'm not getting any streams errors so i don't know what's wrong with it.
I'm not that familiar with Streams so i'm not sure where to start to diagnose the problem. I used the Enterprise Manager to set up the streams and tried stopping and restarting the capture process but i'm still getting the "Paused for Flow Control issue". Where is the best place to start to look for a solution?
Thanks!

  • Streams Help - Stuck in PAUSED FOR FLOW CONTROL

    Hi All,
    I am brand new to Streams and i'm trying to configure streams between two db's on different machines on the same network. Initially i was getting errors trying to connect to the remote database during Propagation(ORA-02019 connection description for remote database not found ). I think this was due to my db link being created incorrectly. I recreated my db link and i'm no longer getting those messages.
    Now everything on my Source db looks like it's running except the Capture state is stuck in PAUSED FOR FLOW CONTROL and nothing is being propagated. The propagation process is enabled and i can see it in the dba_jobs views. I have never gotten this working yet.
    Does anyone have general troublshooting tips for this. I have found detailed instructions on how to setup the stream but not much on how to troubleshoot.
    Any advise would be greatly appreciated.
    null

    This error was due to a 'bad' database link. I'm still not positive why the link was bad but i recreated my db link and tested. After i confirmed it was active I re-setup my capture and propagation processes and all is good now.
    thanks, dave

  • Switch Sign For Flow and Switch Type for Flow

    Hi Can any one Please make me clear at least with 3 examples how to understand Switch Sign for Flow and Switch Type for Flow
    and also the good example with Balance Recurring Account Types

    Hi Chennai,
    Consider an account "Fixed-Assets" supported by movement analysis in Custom1, as follows:
    ClosingBalance
    OpeningBalance
    Additions
    Disposals
    If you mark the Custom1 member Disposals as SwitchSignForFlow, you will enter positive values in Disposals but HFM will subtract from the other two members to calculate the Closing Balance. You may use this functionality if your client prefers to see all values as positive on the reports.
    Using the same example, you might recognize that while Closing and Opening balances are of balance type (they provide a snapshot of the account at a specific instant meaning that you see the same number whether you view the YTD or Periodic values of the account), Additions and Disposals are movements, which means that they accumulate during the same year starting from a zero balance on 1/1/201X and therefore you will see different numbers depending on viewing the YTD or Periodic values of the account. In order to provide with this behavior you have to mark both Additions and Disposals with SwitchTypeForFlow. If you don't they will behave as the underlying account (the Fixed-Assets account) and like the other two Custom1 members, Opening and Closing balance members.
    As for the BalanceReccuring, an account of this type behaves like a normal Balance account, but once you input a number in an intermediate period (say June), the same number will be copied to all following periods (July-December) until you override the numbers by explicitly inputting new values. With a normal balance account, all following periods will be empty.

  • HT204370 I paused the movie download but did not turn off my IPad.  When I returned to restart, it has said "waiting" for over an hour.

    I paused the movie download but did not turn off my IPad.  When I returned to complete the download, the "waiting" message has been on the screen for over an hour.  How can I complete the download?

    I recommend purchasing lion on a USB drive at Apple Store. This will avoid all of the downloading hassles.
    Also, be sure you clone your hard drive first. A lot of people want to go back to Snow Leopard and if you choose to do this cloning will make the process very easy.

    For anyone having this issue, take your device out of the case and try it naked before trying a reset, restore or Genius Bar appointment.

    It does... Apple TV has a problem with the assignment to the itunes account after updating. Restore to factory settings or unlog and news login to the itunes store helps to see the rented/downloaded film(s).

  • The project file is not bound to source control, but the solution contains source control binding information for it.

    This may be more of a SQL Server Management Studio question, but I couldn't find a SSMS forum...
    I've got a database solution that contains several projects.  They're just to keep track of changes to stored procedures, triggers, views, etc in a few databases I maintain.  There is a problem with two of the projects though.  No matter what I do, I can't seem to get them bound to source control right.  When I open the solution, I get:
    The project file is not bound to source control, but the solution contains source control binding information for it.
    With two options, use solution binding and remove solution binding.  If I keep the solution binding, everything works fine.  But it's really annoying to have to deal with every time I open the solution.  If I remove the solution binding, the projects are now unbound again.  If I try to fix them (using the change source control or Add Selected Projects to Source Control options under the File->source control menu), I just end up in the same situation.  I've even tried deleting the projects and re-creating them from scratch, then re-adding them to VSS.  If I open the solution files in a text editor I can see the SCC tags in every project, but these two.  Since I can't manually add the tags, and Management Studio itself only seems to want to bind them the wrong way, I'm getting really frustrated.
    Can anyone point me toward a way to bind these so they work like the rest?

    However, that does not appear to be the ONLY cause of the problem.  I am a single user and only using TFS2010 and SSMS2008R2.  My issue is that I wanted a solution file for each project so that they could managed independently, and a super-solution
    file that contained all projects, so that I could perform system-wide searches and cross-checks.
    I solved the problem by:
    1. Choosing the option to use solution binding, then
    2. Adding another project to the solution.  This forced the re-write of the solution file.
    3. Adding another script to the project.  This forced the re-write of the project file.
    4. Checking in all changes.
    5. Deleting the new script and the extra project,
    6 Checking in all changes.
    This appears to have solved the problem.

    I noticed in my instance that it is HD content that is giving me the same problem, but Standard Definition (SD) content downloads and plays no problem.
    Would this be the same with you? Have you been able to download a play an HD rented movie?

    Hi Peggs,
    Try this:
    Open your iBooks app on your iPad
    Select the Store Button at the top
    Select Purchased at the bottom
    You will see your AppleID on the right at the bottom, then Redeem, then Support
    Click on your Apple ID, and when the AppleID window comes up with the options, Sign Out
    Then Sign In again and try redownloading your book
    Hope this helps!

  • I would have updates for my phone but they paused like 3/4th of the way.. i would have to turn off my phone just so it could finish.. does that happen to anyone else?

    I would have updates for my phone but they paused like 3/4th of the way.. i would have to turn off my phone just so it could finish.. does that happen to anyone else?

    The easiest thing to do is a reset on the phone. Hold the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo and then release. After that, go to the app in question and tap on it. This should restart the download and finish it, as long as you have a solid internet connection.
