Suddenly getting ORA-12514

Hi
I am parsing an XML file and trying to store data into oracle 10g.
My connection string is :
Connection c = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:odbc:Oracle-DB","scott","tiger");
But suddenly I am getting error like ORA-12514. below is the stack trace for the same.
Please help me. Couldnt really figure out why this happens.
This is not actually a parsing error since I can parse the XML file correct.
Thanks in advance....

Please in the future, first of all look up the error message in the online documentation, even before posting this error yet again, showing you didn't try to figure out what happened.
The error message implies
service_name in tnsnames.ora != service_name of the database.
Make sure both service_names match.

Instead of this:

(SID_LIST =
    (SID_DESC =

    (DESCRIPTION =
      (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = IPC)(KEY = EXTPROC1521))
      (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = localhost)(PORT = 1521))
have the following in your listener file
SID_LIST_LISTENER =
(SID_LIST =
    (SID_DESC =
      (SID_NAME = CLRExtProc)
      (ORACLE_HOME = G:\oracledb\product\11.2.0\dbhome_1)

    (DESCRIPTION =
      (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = IPC)(KEY = EXTPROC1521))

Also, dont have 'localhost' in your listener.ora file, provide the actual IP or hostanme. NEVER YOU should have
localhost.
Restart listener and try.
Thanks &

Hello;
( Consider a different service name, see my comment below )
After you start the service
exec dbms_service.start_service('hyrdev');
I would expect you might set Several of the default parameters
Ex.
BEGIN
   DBMS_SERVICE.MODIFY_SERVICE
   ('hyrdev',
   FAILOVER_METHOD => 'BASIC',
   FAILOVER_TYPE => 'SELECT',
   FAILOVER_RETRIES => 200,
   FAILOVER_DELAY => 1);
END;
/Also your startup trigger is much different than anything I have seen.
My Example (This was taken from the Oracle document and almost certainly pretested by Oracle, why change it?? )
CREATE TRIGGER CHECK_ERNIE_START AFTER STARTUP ON DATABASE
DECLARE
V_ROLE VARCHAR(30);
BEGIN
SELECT DATABASE_ROLE INTO V_ROLE FROM V$DATABASE;
IF V_ROLE = 'PRIMARY' THEN
DBMS_SERVICE.START_SERVICE('hyrdev');
ELSE
DBMS_SERVICE.STOP_SERVICE('hyrdev');
END IF;
END;
/There's another example here :
http://uhesse.wordpress.com/2009/08/19/connect-time-failover-transparent-application-failover-for-data-guard/
"lsnrctl status" will confirm if you are working.
MY test
Instance "TRAINING", status READY, has 1 handler(s) for this service...
Service "ernie" has 1 instance(s).
Instance "PRIMARY", status READY, has 1 handler(s) for this service...
The command completed successfullyFrankly I would use a different alias than "hyrdev" because by using that you make it very difficult see the new service.
Your Tnsnames.ora looks correct. Try using different service name.
You can always delete it later :
DBMS_SERVICE.DELETE_SERVICE('ernie');
For additional details check Oracle Doc B14258-02 or B10802-01 and search for "DBMS_SERVICE"
Finally, check this Oracle note :

10g stopped working after 11g installed. Getting ORA-12514: error

I had Oracle 10g installed in win2000 sp2. with port 1521.
I have installed Oracle 11g on the same system. with port 1522.
I am able to start both the instances and tnslistener but I am not able to connect to Oracle10g database. Getting following error.
ORA-12514: TNS:listener does not currently know of service requested in connect

I am not able to see my tek10g 10g database details.
I also checked my tnsnames.ora file which has the entries properly.
Sqlnet.ora file has

How to solve this issue? Is that possible to run oracle 10g and oracle 11g in same host?
Thanks in Advance...

Manikandan

The approach I would take, in general is:
1) pick a listener, and only one. Get that working.
2) Make sure all the databases register to that listener
3) Fix the TNSNAMES.ORA files appropriately.
To fix the listener
1) Verify the listener address matches the current environment
SID_LIST_LISTENER =
(SID_LIST =
    (SID_DESC =
      (SID_NAME = PLSExtProc)
      (ORACLE_HOME = C:\oracle\app\oracle\product\10.2.0\server)
      (PROGRAM = extproc)
    (SID_DESC =
      (SID_NAME = CLRExtProc)
      (ORACLE_HOME = C:\oracle\app\oracle\product\10.2.0\server)     << - MUST point to correct HOME
      (PROGRAM = extproc)
LISTENER =
(DESCRIPTION_LIST =
    (DESCRIPTION =
      (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = IPC)(KEY = EXTPROC_FOR_XE))
      (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = myHOST)(PORT = myPORT))
)where
myHOST is this host's resolvable name or IP address
myPORT is the port (default 1521) that the listener should monitor
The HOST is often a problem if the machine uses DHCP.
2) Register the databases
On startup, database will auto-register to the listener defined in the init parameter 'LOCAL_LISTENER', which defaults to 'HOST={current_host}, PORT=1521'
After startup, if the listener is taken down, you can register each database manually using the DBA command
ALTER SYSTEM REGISTER;
Either way, it should show up in the output of 'lsnrctl status'
While you are accessing the database, you might want to find out which services the database supports. That can be done in SQLPlus using the command
SHOW PARAMETER SERVICE_NAMES
Note that the database name is the default service name.
3) Fix [all] the TNSNAMES.ORA file[s].
Each SERVICE_NAME from the previous list that you want to access from this client, yu should find an entry that looks like
myTEST =
(DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = myHOST)(PORT = myPORT))
    (CONNECT_DATA =
      (SERVER = DEDICATED)
      (SERVICE_NAME = mySERVICE)
myTEST is the alias I want to look up by using it as the connect target string.
myHOST should match the HOST= entry in the LISTENER.ORA
myPORT MUST match the PORT= entry in the LISTENER.ORA
mySERVICE is the Service to which I am asking the listener to connect me, as found in the lsnrctl status output

it is not accepting with hostring, but I am able to connect without of host string.
Please can any one help to solve this problem.

1st case (not able to access) I am providing details like:

host string : orclYou're connecting at LISTENER
1. Please check
tnsping orcl
Example:
$ tnsping orcl
Used TNSNAMES adapter to resolve the alias
Attempting to contact (DESCRIPTION = (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = localhost)(PORT = 1521)) (CONNECT_DATA = (SERVER = DEDICATED) (SERVICE_NAME = orcl)))
2. on database... check your database/service database register in listener
lsrnctl service
Example:
$ lsnrctl service
Service "orcl" has 1 instance(s).
Instance "orcl", status READY, has 1 handler(s) for this service...

Suddenly getting "ORA-12154: TNS: could not resolve service name"

Hi all
A fairly basic post from a newbie here!
Basically, I connect to several Oracle 9i instances from my PC using Toad and SQLPlus. Yesterday, this was working fine, but today, I am getting "ORA-12154: TNS: could not resolve service name" every time I try to hit any oracle instance from either Toad or SQLPlus. I have checked my TNSNAMES.ora file and it looks fine.
Are there any system variables I should look at? My PATH was changed yesterday, but I have checked and my Oracle 9i bin path is still correctly in my PATH.
I'm a bit baffled so any help/pointers would be most welcome!
Many thanks
Jon

Since you have changed your PATH, did you change any other Env Variable?
How many ORACLE_HOME have you got. i.e have you installed any new Oracle Software on the same machine?
Ensure that that Environment Variables ORACLE_HOME and TNS_ADMIN is pointing to the correct directory where your TNSNAMES.ORA is located.

DB nonresponsive with ORA-12514 after weeks of running fine

I have seen many prior users complain about getting ORA-12514 after a reboot after installation, and looking at the suggestions, I couldn't find anything addressed a situation where the whole system works for a long period of time and then stops working.
I have a working APEX installation that I can access over the web from remote clients
I have a working JDBC connection that I can use from several remote clients.
After several weeks/months of happily running, I no longer can access the apex website, and I can no longer access the db through the JDBC connection getting:
ORA-12514, TNS:listener does not currently know of service requested in connect
descriptor
The Connection descriptor used by the client was:
//###.###.###.###:1521/XE
Going to look at Windows services, both OracleServiceXE and OracleXETNSListener are still running. To try and recover, I do the following:
* Stop the db and start the db. (Which simply stops OracleServiceXE, and then starts both it and the listener)
Doesn't fix it
* Thinking that the listener might be the problem, I then stop the db, and also manually stop the listener. I then start both of the services
Doesn't fix it
* I reboot the computer
Fixes it.
What is different about rebooting the computer that could possibly fix this? Also, someone had suggested in another thread to look at the listener log in db_1/network/admin/listener.log. I don't know what db_1 is, but I have a oraclexe\app\oracle\product\10.2.0\server\NETWORK\ADMIN directory that does not have this log. If anyone has any insight into what this is, or what log I should look at to identify it, I would be greatly appreciative.
Thanks,
Dan

Thanks!
Ah, the alert log, that is a useful find. For those who don't know, you can find where the alert log is stored by doing the following:
select value from v$parameter where name = 'background_dump_dest';
I looked at the alert log, and i think it indicates that the process is running out of memory. Since it can run for a very long time without this, I'm assuming it's some kind of memory leak. Especially since I think the less I develop pages with APEX, the longer the system goes between crashing (That is only anecdotal). I looked at the .trc files that it spit out as well, but they seem to have internal stack traces and dumps. Where do I go from here? Is this something I post to an Oracle bug list? Below is the relevant section of the alert log:

TNS Listener -ORA-12514 error following database shutdown - Oracle 11g

Hi
I have hit a problem with my oracle development database.
When in sqlplus I executed the shutdown command, but nothing happened for several minutes and it was just hanging. No messages were displayed to the screen. The only thing was to close the command window. When I open sqlplus again and enter in the user name password as sysdba I am getting ORA 12514 TNS Listener could not resolve service in descriptor. This is odd as I could log on before and use the database. So I thought that the services were still shutting down I waited, and using the Windows snap on tool for Oracle 11g, I restarted the services on the database, but this has had no effect.
Even using EM made no difference because I couldn't log on to perform a startup or recovery.
So, please does anyone know how I can fix this?
Thanks

shutdown abort

COPY command & results from above then PASTE all back here

ORA 12514 once again..

Hello, I knew, there are thousends of topics similiar to mine. I read them all. Nothing works for me. And there i will discribe my problem: I created a Oracle database using Oracle SQL developer setting values :
connection name: test,
username: bob,
password: qwerty
Connection type: basic,
role: defoult,
Hostname: localhost,
port: 1521,
SID : orcl.
Reason im writing all of this is that i rally did everything possible, and i hope that by providing each kind of data someone will be able to help me.
My next step was downloading and instaling ODAC 11.2 Release 4 (11.2.0.3.0) with Oracle Developer Tools for Visual Studio.
When i want make a connection to databese from my application using server explorer im entering following data:
data source name: //localhost:1521/test
user name: ADMIN
password : qwerty
connection name is being set automaticly.
When im trying to test connection im getting ORA 12514... and here it is how i changed mine tnsname.ora:
LISTENER_ORCL =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = localhost)(PORT = 1521))
orcl =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = localhost)(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVICE_NAME = orcl)
)

Have you tried?
data source name: orcl
user name: bob

Urgent -- ORA-12514.

Hi,
I restarted my database (RAC). After that I am getting ORA-12514 from second node while trying to connect username/pwd@cs, but it is working in first node.
Can any body will help me.

Ora-12514 - sqlnet.log states ora-12564

Oracle 8.1.5 w/Patch level 02 applied
I have come to the end of my rope. I have tried and tried to connect to my database using the following: sqlplus system/manager@mydbname and always get ora-12514. When I look at the sqlnet.log file I find:
Tns error struct:
nr err code: 0
ns main err code: 12564
TNS-12564: TNS:connection refused
etc etc etc
I turned trace on level 6 for the client and I find these items scattered about:
nncpmlf_make_local_addrfile: construction of local names file failed
niotns: Call refused: (DESCRIPTION=(TMP=)(VSNNUM=135286784)(ERR=12514)(ERROR_STACK=(ERROR=(CODE=12514(EMFI=4))))
nioqper: error from nscall
etc etc etc
I am so frustrated. Somebody please help.

Hi Randy,
I got the same problem and I fixed it using the "netasst" (for
solaris) or Net8 Assistant (for windows).
Within the Assistant select your Service Naming (mydbname as in
your exemple), in the right site check the "Use Oracle8i Release
8.0 Compatible Identification" box. This will enable the SID
field, enter there your "mydmname" and save this new
configuration.
Exit the Assistant and test your connect string.
I hope this will fix your problem.
