TNS: listener: all appropriate instances are blocking new connections.

Hello,
when I start up my freshly installed developerday VB appliance, and try to connect to the database, following the tutorial in "Hands-on lab" - "SQL developer", as well as with any other attempt, the connection would not establish. I always get a message ORA-12528: TNS: listener: all appropriate instances are blocking new connections.
I cannot find any Readme or Tutorial which explains this appearance.
Weird, that obviously nobody else runs into this problem, otherwise this forum would be full of it. But isn't the VB appliance byte-for-byte the same for anybody?
Any ideas?

Hi Marco, thanks for replying. You can read the OS version from the lsnctl output. The OS of the host system of the Virtual Box is Windows7 64-bit. Hmm... "HOST=0.0.0.0" looks suspicious, doesn't it?

ORA-12528: TNS:listener: all appropriate instances are blocking new connections

I'm working with OBIEE 11.1.1.5, with Ora DB 11.2.
Suddenly, the OBIEE is not accessible.
The logs showed that the issue is DB connectivity.
When I try to enter directly to the DB via sqlplus I get the error:

I tried restarting server, DB, listener, but nothing helped.
I've Googled and saw that I need to unregister some old connections, which were not closed correctly, i.e. entering DB and delete some records,
but I cannot login to the sqlplus.
I failed login as sys, system, scott - on the same error.
How can I solve this issue?

Does anybody have an idea about why this error is comming.
Note that we are using oracle 10g in a RAC environment with 02 nodes.
Thanks for your help.
Raitsarevo

I don't use SID in my tnsnames.ora, i use SERVICE_NAME and it's OK. May be someone who have configured iot's tnsnames made it wrong because there consultant installaing new application in our company and may be their tnsnames was wrong and causing that problem. Because in their application it always tries to connect in the database till connection will be established and may be it increase the database session number.
Isn't it and when session max number is reached may be database connection will hang.
Correct me if it is the case, we will have a look in their applivcation tnsnames configuration.
Thanks

Ora-12528 all appropriate instances are blocking new connections

hi,
i get an error 'ora-12528 all appropriate instances are blocking new connections'
i have changed shared_servers parameters. from there itself i get the error

With zero substantive information about your environment, it is impossible to know for sure.
But, if you've just set SHARED_SERVERS=0, for example, and your tnsnames.ora has a line in it that says (SERVER=SHARED), then your client is demanding the use of shared servers which don't exist. You can therefore expect the sort of error you're getting.
The fix is to remove the explicit demand for shared servers in the tnsnames.ora. Just remove the line (or, not quite such good practice, set it to DEDICATED).

ORA-12526: TNS:listener: all appropriate instances are in restricted mode

Hi all,
I am trying to connect to Oracle10.2.0.2 in solaris9 as
conn sys/password@dbname as sysdba
but after this attempt it showing
ORA-12526: TNS:listener: all appropriate instances are in restricted mode
but if i connect like this
conn sys/password as sysdba
it works.
Can some one give me the solution for the same?
Thanks
Vipin

Hi,
When you want to connect to database there are majorly two kinds of protocols are involve
1. TCP and
2. IPC
when you are talking about <username>/<password>@<servername > then though you are on same server you are refering to TCP protocol and when you are talking about <username>/<password> then you are refering to IPC protocol
now here when you are going to connect to your database through
conn sys/password as sysdba
its working fine because you are using IPC and if you connect through
conn sys/password@dbname as sysdba
it will show you error because you are using Listener TCP.
So i think that you need to check your listener status and database status both and give the output.
Thanks

ORA-12526 : TNS Listener : all appropriate instances are in restricted more

I have configured configuration manager to listen to port 1610. When i try connecting to the database i get the above error. If i pass the configuration manager and use 1521 of the listener i can connect. The database is 10gR2.
The old data files were moved from a previous release . I had to open the database with the upgrade option.
Please let me know if any one has any idea about how we can get rid of this. Did not find much on metalink.

Is listener started successfully after changing the port to 1621?
did you change the port number in tnsnames.ora of the client?

All Pipe Instances are Busy

I am running an Oracle Server 7.3.3.0.0 on an Windows NT4.0 server.
We currently are running about 30 small database instances on the NT box.
When I try to start an additional Oracle instance, I get the message "Could not start the service on xxxxxx. Error 0231: All pipe instances are busy". If I shut down one of the currently running instances, I can start another one, I just can't go over a certain total number of these services.
I have found some references that say that Oracle creates a Named Pipe ("ORAPIPE") and that it has a parameter called nMaxInstances which can be set to "PIPE_UNLIMITED_INSTANCES", but I can't figure out where to make this configuration change. Would changing my protocol to straight TCP/IP solve this issue? I have also found a parameter called "USE_SHARED_SOCKET" but am uncertain of where to set this.
Any help would be appreciated.

You may be running into an NT4 internal limit; I have checked the W2K resource kit though and can't find anything about max. number of pipes.

The command completed successfully
but it´s not possible to create a connection to the server. My enviroment variables are this
ORACLE_BASE=/u01/app/oracle
ORACLE_HOME=/u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/dbhome_1
ORACLE_HOSTNAME=vc-db1.mydomain
ORACLE_SID=vcdb
ORACLE_TERM=xterm
so i think on the server site everything is correct. How could i establish a connection from the windows client
to the linux database server. Or is ODBC the wrong method for this?
Kind regards

Hi,
Check the listener log and see if the connection information is logged (in this case with error)
If logged, then we are reaching the correct listener.
Then check tnsping VCDB works fine along with sqlplus connection through listener using VCDB as connect string.
If above both works, then issue can be isolated to ODBC configuration or setup issue.
In case even if the tnsping / sqlplus is failing to connect with VCDB, then worth taking a client sqlent trace at level 16 and listener trace at level 16 to analyse the issue further.
Thanks,
Sathya

ORA-12514: TNS:listener could not resolve SERVICE_NAME given in connect des

Hello all,
I installed a 10g client on a windows PC, which already had 8i installed.
SQLPlus login works for databases in both environments, but now a 8i database cannot be connected from Visual Studio.
ORA-12514: TNS:listener could not resolve SERVICE_NAME given in connect descriptor
I immediately checked both tnsnames.ora, but I don't see anything wrong.
sqlnet.ora has:
SQLNET.AUTHENTIFICATION_SERVICES= (NTS)
NAMES.DIRECTORY_PATH= (TNSNAMES)
Has anybody encountered this issue?
I'm thinking of de-installing 10g now...
Thanks in advance.

ORA-12514: TNS:listener does not currently know of service requested in connect descriptor
Cause: The listener received a request to establish a connection to a database or other service. The connect descriptor received by the listener specified a service name for a service (usually a database service) that either has not yet dynamically registered with the listener or has not been statically configured for the listener. This may be a temporary condition such as after the listener has started, but before the database instance has registered with the listener.
Action:
- Wait a moment and try to connect a second time.
- Check which services are currently known by the listener by executing: lsnrctl services <listener name>
- Check that the SERVICE_NAME parameter in the connect descriptor of the net service name used specifies a service known by the listener.
- If an easy connect naming connect identifier was used, check that the service name specified is a service known by the listener.
- Check for an event in the listener.log file.
Pay special attention to these possible reasons:
- Check which services .......
- Check that the SERVICE_NAME parameter ...........
There's a mismatch between service_name is tnsnames.ora and service_name known by the actual listener.
