tmadugulaYesterday I had an automobile placed in my driveway. The engine is not starting. How can I troubleshoot this one?
First we need to know what you did to try to get a sql prompt.
You need to make sure the environment in which you are working (the os command prompt) has the environment set up correctly:
ORACLE_HOME
ORACLE_SID
PATH=$ORACLEL_HOME/bin:$PATH
Next we need to know that you actually entered a command to try to get a sql prompt.
Please copy the follwing into your OS command prompt window:
SET | SORT
sqlplus / as sysdbaand paste the result back to this thread

  • Database Error: DBD::Oracle::db do failed: ORA-04030: out of process memory

    Hi
    I have a stored procedure that uses the XMLQuery function (SELECT XMLQuery( '......' RETURNING CONTENT) FROM dual; ) to extract data from 3 different tables and store the xml file in XML DB. This store procedure was running fine for a long time until 2 weeks ago where I started seeing the following error:
    Database Error: DBD::Oracle::db do failed: ORA-04030: out of process memory when trying to allocate 92 bytes (koh dur heap d,qmxtkWriteXobToOpn:heap)
    Currently I have 16,000 records. I am not sure what is going on, the size of the previous successful output xml file is about 2M. I also noticed when the stored procedure runs with 3G of system memory available, it basically used up all the memory and cpu time. The store proc consistently dies after 3.5 hour and spits out the ORA-04030 out of process memory error.
    Does anyone have any suggestion what to look for or what parameters I need to set? Thanks

    Unless your database is strictly a DSS-type of database, your AWR report exposes loads of issues with it. And I think none of the time during the AWR window was spent on database. Look at the DB time (with all those multi cores) compared with the elapsed time of the AWR.
    As you are on 11g, why not make use of MEMORY_TARGET (a single parameter to manage both SGA and PGA)? If you are already on it, ignore this as I can't see it anywhere. If not, get rid of SGA_TARGET and PGA_AGGREGATE_TARGET and replace it with a single MEMORY_TARGET parameter. However you may have a minimum threshold set for different SGA pools so that they won't shrink beyond that point.
    Having said that, setting MEMORY_TARGET is not a guarantee to avoid ORA-4030. Just a single bad PL/SQL code could go and exploit the untunable part of your process memory and even go and blow up the physical memory. If you are using FORALL and BULK load, see if you can cut it down into few chunks rather than running as a single process.
    What does your V$PGASTAT say?

    You are facing this issue because you're using a non certified combination.
    Other folks who tried to use OIM in 10.3.1 ended up in the same problem you're facing.

    Hi Raj,
    Not sure if this is already resolved.
    Seems your DSA has atleast 2 outputs. As of Version 11.1.1.6.1 the webervice allows calls to DSAs with only 1 output. So your options are:
    Combine your outputs to single output
    Use other integration methods
    Hope this helps.
    Thanks!

  • ODBC error in oracle 11g

    Hi all.
    I have installed oracle 11g release 2 64 bit on my system and also installed Informatica powercenter 9.1. the informatica repository is in oracle database. I have configured informatica perfectly since i could run workflow when connecting to flat files etc. i am having problem when i am trying to connect informatica to oracle source system and receiving following error the oracle(tm) client and networking components were not found. I read in many forums posts and realized i should install oracle client. I am encountering issues once the client is installed on my system. the issue is that my repository and integration server stops in informatica powercenter. the error log says TNS could not be resolved. then i tried to log in to database server "sys as sysdba" i am receiving error "ORA-01031: insufficient privileges ". I have done following things to resolve my error
    1) checked my user is in ora_dba group
    2) checked sqlnet.ora file SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICES= (NTS)
    I dont know where to start to now fix this error. I have some questions Is there a problem installing both server and client on the same machine.
    Your help will be greatly appreciated.
    P.s I am not sure whether this to redirected to informatica forums or oracle forums so my apologizes if i am in a wrong place.
    Regards
    Rajkumar

    Hi Rajkumar,
    I suspect you're actually using 32 bit components, as I've only ever seen the error message you've posted "oracle(tm) client and networking components were not found" come from Microsoft ODBC or OLEDB provider for Oracle, and those only come in 32 bit. The fact that they got loaded in the first place and didnt find the client indicates the process is 32 bit.
    You'll first need to determine for sure whether the process that needs connectivity is 32 bit or 64 bit, then install that bit-ness of Oracle client. You can also install both a 32 bit and a 64 bit client, and in some cases you need both. If you're running it ON the database machine and already have a 64 bit database, that already includes a 64 bit client.
    In either case, you can probably just go with the 11201 client.. Here's the link, click "see all" to get to the client download:

    Hope it helps,

  • Getting ORA-06512: at "APPS.FND_MSG_PUB", line 279 error in Oracle Sourcing

    Hi,
    We have recently applied Sourcing Rollup 2 J patch in our instance. After this, when the users change their timezone, the system behaves weirdly. The Server timezone and Client timezone are set to Dubai timezone (GMT+4) at site level. If the user is using this timezone, there is no issues. But when the user changes the timezone to something else (anything > GMT+4 or anything < GMT+4), he cannot publish auctions. He is getting error like:
    oracle.apps.fnd.framework.OAException: java.sql.SQLException: ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: character string buffer too small
    ORA-06512: at "APPS.FND_MSG_PUB", line 279

    We feel like this is some issues with the system. Some times, this works, sometimes different kind of errors are seen. When user is trying to log in, another error like the following is seen:

    ORA-06512: at "APPS.FND_GLOBAL", line 541
    ORA-06512: at line 1
    When we bounced server, this error went away. But the first error still persists. What could be the reason for this?
    Regards,
    Arun

    I traced through the packages. Here is the result:
    1. PON_AUCTION_PKG line 1052;
    x_newstarttime := PON_OEX_TIMEZONE_PKG.CONVERT_TIME(p_open_bidding_date,x_oex_timezone,x_timezone);
    'x_oex_timezone' is the 'Server Timezone' profile value at site level. 'x_timezone' is the user's timezone. If the user's timezone is not a valid zone (checking done in PON_OEX_TIMEZONE_PKG.VALID_ZONE procedure), this param is assigned the value of 'x_oex_timezone'.
    2. The PON_OEX_TIMEZONE_PKG.CONVERT_TIME procedure calls the procedure HZ_TIMEZONE_PUB.Get_Time(), and I hope here the issue starts. The OUT parameters to this procedure are toDate, status, msg_count and msg_data. Note that here the msg_data is defined as VARCHAR2(100).
    3. Within the procedure HZ_TIMEZONE_PUB.Get_Time(), the error is raised from line 877. This is a WHEN OTHERS case of this procedure. This is from the API ;
    FND_MSG_PUB.Count_And_Get(
    p_encoded => FND_API.G_FALSE,
    p_count => x_msg_count,
    p_data => x_msg_data);
    4. Next error from FND_MSG_PUB is from line 279. This is within the procedure FND_MSG_PUB.Count_And_Get, when executing the following statement:
    p_data := Get ( p_msg_index => G_FIRST ,
    p_encoded => p_encoded );
    5. The 'GET' procedure, sets the value from global table 'G_msg_tbl( G_msg_index ).encoded_message ' to the p_data variable, and here is a potential slippage. The global variable can hold a value of upto 2000 characters. But the p_data is originally defined to be of size VARCHAR2(100). I think this can cause the issue. I am not sure what is the message getting assigned to the global variable here.
    Could this be the problem? Inside the code, some assignments to fnd_mesage are done. But some of those messages are not present in our database (fnd_new_messages). Any clue on this would be greatly helpful.
    Thanks,
    Arun

    I am able to resolve the issue:
    The mistake I was doing was creating ORACLE_HOME in the enviornment variable, as I have Oracle 10 G database and SOA suite on the same machine, so it was creating a clash, the right approach is setting the ORACLE_HOME through command prompt, I was setting ORACLE_HOME because while executing the configure_oid.bat file it requires ORACLE_HOME to be set.

    Thanks for the post, but I am afraid that's not the issue with the error.
    I changed both encoding to "UTF-8" still i get the problem.
    I tried even without the XSLT sheet, still I have the problem..

    I need more information about that error, what can be causing the error in the system and why. Is it possible to see more information about the last errors in Oracle? For example, if a query produces an error... is it possible to see in Oracle the error and the query that caused the error?
    Hope you can help me.
    Thanks in advance.

    Thanks Niall.
    I'm not sure if I got you...
    What I found is that MMON makes snapshots of the database 'health' and stores this information in the AWR. So, it seems like in the database there could be a numeric column that is storing character fields, and when MMON works, it finds that error... is that right?
    I found the following information:

    Is there any way I can see what MMON is doing and when is failing?
    Thank you very much.
