XML-25004: Could not acquire a database connection named: gksconnection

HI Gentlemen,
I am trying to build up an XSQL page with a query against an XMLTYPE table, to display the contents using a stylesheet. I have set up an IDE connection, the test was successful. Now I would like to start the page just to see if it works altogether. Now without a stylesheet, only that the page executes. And I am constantly running into
XML-25004: Could not acquire a database connection named: gksconnection
I entered the connection in the XSQLConfig file by manual editing--it did not help. Well, there is some stuff in the forum about setting some preferences for OC4J, but in my version of JDeveloper only Weblogic Server is available. So I am prevented from clearing the cause of the problem.
My JDeveloper is a Studio Edition Version 11.1.1.3.0, Build JDEVADF_11.1.1.3.PS2_GENERIC_100408.2356.5660.
Please help me if you can.
Many thanks in advance,
kind regards from
Miklos HERBOLY

Sorry, I found a solution in My Oracle Support which will suffice.
Thank you very much
Miklos

    I think is this the CLASSPATH issue. Please take look if there is another XSQLConfig.xml in your classpath.

    Are using 9.0.1 version of XSQL?
    Oracle XSQL Programmatic Page Processor 9.0.1.0.0 (Production) Actually ... yes and no.
    The latest version I could find for AIX was 9.0.1.0.0
    Using that version, I had the database connection error
    The production version of my program uses version 1.0.4.1 on AIX
    That version works
    I also downloaded version 9.0.2 for Windows NT from the OTN and copied my program to the PC.
    That version works when I run it on my PC
    I have a couple ideas to try this morning, with hope ... The latest version for XSQL is 9.2.0.3 on OTN, please use the latest version.

  • SQL Server Express 2014 on Win8.1: Could not find the Database Engine startup handle

    Hello,
    I tried to follow all the similarly titled posts in this forum, yet no solution seems to work, so I hope I can find some up-to-date suggestion here (most of the older posts refer to versions from 2008 to 2012...).
    I have installed Visual Studio 2013 (with the latest Update 2 RC) on a freshly installed development workstation with Win 8.1 with all its updates. Now I'd want to install SQL Server 2014 Express, but the setup keeps failing with the dreaded "Could
    not find the Database Engine startup handle" error (the log follows below).
    What I tried:
    1) download again and repair. Same error.
    2) completely uninstall by launching setup.exe /Action=uninstall (success), then rebooting the OS, then installing again. Same error. I did this twice, the second time I also manually removed any directory left out in C:\Program Files etc.
    When I launch the setup, I select all the components for installation in the package SQLEXPRADV_x64_ENU.exe (1.12 GB, last downloaded today -Apr 3, 2014-), and accept all the defaults including the proposed services accounts. There is no preexisting
    SQL Server instance, as expected.
    The setup takes its time, and finally fails with the error quoted above. I really do not want to reformat my HD and fully reconfigure my workstation, which took about 3 days... Could anyone suggest a solution to have SQL Server 2014 setup so I can start
    developing instead of wasting time in administering the system?
    Thanks to all! The log follows.

    Thank you, it worked! I suppose that it was really your nr.3 which made the difference. I changed NT Service\MSSQL$SQLEXPRESS to NT AUTHORITY\System for the Data service. I'll then change it again as suggested (any suggestion about a "standard"
    account to be used here?), even if this is a development workstation using SQL Server Express only as a local database for debugging, so security is not really a big concern.
    Thanks for the feedback.Ya I know No3 was real step but just added more info so as to rule out any other possibility.
    No not as such, you wont believe,quite few pf my clients I have worked for keep it with local system and they have not complained yet ,they are afraid to change account as few of them faced issue SQL Server not coming online due to logon failure( after changing
    startup account to some domain a and that was happening due to some AD policy.But if you have nay plans to move Critical database in production which would be act as Database to some Internet facing application please follow my suggestion
    of running SQL Server with Least privileged domain account.

  • 10.1.3 EA1: ORA-12518, TNS:listener could not hand off client connection

    Hi,
    Trying to connect to a remote database which worked in 10.1.3 developer preview gives now:
    Listener refused the connection with the following error:
    ORA-12518, TNS:listener could not hand off client connection
    The Connection descriptor used by the client was:
    From sqlplus I can connect. I don't have access to the remote database server/configuration. I tried the workarounds specified here
    http://metalink.oracle.com/metalink/plsql/ml2_documents.showDocument?p_database_id=NOT&p_id=139775.1
    I deleted
    ojdbc14dms.jar ojdbc14.jar
    from jdeveloper and copied ojdbc14_g.jar from Oracle 10g release1 (renamed it to ojdbc14.jar). Then it worked.

    this means that it didn't reach the resource limites yet. What i can do to solve the problem ???
    another important information is that connecting by the default listener LISTENER instead of the LISTENER_BKP_1 listener, the connection is completed successfully. There's enough SGA memory space too.
    Tks,

    ORA-12518: TNS:listener could not hand off client connectionDon't do Oracle on Windows, so I'm not sure how the following relates to the Listener dealing with a dedicated server connection request on Linux/Unix.
    On Linux/Unix, a dedicated server request means just that - a dedicated process has to be started to service that client. The Listener does it by using the parameters of the configured listener.ora service to execute +$ORACLE_HOME/bin/oracle+. This process then starts up, and the Listener hands off the client connection for this process for servicing.
    If there is a failure somewhere on this series of steps fail, the Listener throws the ORA-12518 exception. For example, the +$ORACLE_HOME+ has been incorrectly configured in listener.ora and it fails to execute and startup a dedicated server process.
    And this relates to the underlying error you are seeing:
    TNS-12518: TNS:listener could not hand off client connection
    TNS-12560: TNS:protocol adapter error
    TNS-00530: Protocol adapter error
    32-bit Windows Error: 2: No such file or directoryI think that the Listener on Windows uses the CreateRemoteThread() Win32 call to start up the server process thread. However, it needs a valid process identifier (of the existing Oracle instance) for this call - and thus needs to first identify the Oracle instance process. Could be that this step uses a ORACLE_HOME reference. And if that directory path is not valid, it is unable to identify the process id of the Oracle instance and thus unable to spawn a dedicated thread to service that client.

  • TNS:listener could not hand off client connection

    while trying to select from dblink I got ORA-12518: TNS:listener could not hand off client connection
    What should I do?
    here is the listener.ora
    SID_LIST_LISTENER =
    (SID_LIST =
    (SID_DESC =
    (SID_NAME = PLSExtProc)
    (ORACLE_HOME = C:\oracle\product\10.2.0\db_2)

    (DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = IPC)(KEY = EXTPROC1))
    (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = disater)(PORT = 1521))
    )

    What is the operating system and database version for remote and local machines.
    Are you using dedicated or threaded server on the remoted DB. More information is needed.
    output from error message search:-
    12518, 00000, "TNS:listener could not hand off client connection"
    // *Cause: The process of handing off a client connection to another process
    // failed.
    // *Action: Turn on listener tracing and re-execute the operation. Verify
    // that the listener and database instance are properly configured for
    // direct handoff. If problem persists, call Oracle Support.
    // *Comment: The problem can be worked around by configuring dispatcher(s)
    // to specifically handle the desired presentation(s), and connecting
    // directly to the dispatcher, bypassing the listener.

  • Could not acquire a lock

    Hello,
    I'm trying to activate and smartform but every time I'm getting this dump:
    Error Text of the Database: "[ASE Error SQL12205]Could not acquire a lock
    within the specified wait period. SERVER level wait period=2400 seconds,
    spid=259, lock type=exclusive row, dbid=4, objid=1260735642, pageno=5821264,
    rowno=5. Aborting the transaction.#"
    I've checked the LWM and HWM, and this paramteres have default value 2147483647.

    I don't think the LWM an HWM values will be relevant to this situation.  It sounds like some other process is holding an incompatible lock on this row for a long time, and your client is choosing to time out rather than continue to block.
    Use a query against master..syslocks (or wade through the output of sp_lock) to look for such a process.

    TNS-12518: TNS:listener could not hand off client connection
    (when I do a sqlplus, it hangs for one two minutes, then the error above shows)
    My oracle 10g is installed in a windows system. this error only happens when the database is heavily used for some time. After I restarted the Listoner, the connection is ok again. Does anyone has a solution for this? Thanks a lot.

    Monitor your page file usage on Windows system (I assume its a 32 bit machine). When Windows starts to swap Oracle SGA into page file., you encounter TNS errors. Strange but we have observed this.
    If you can allocate more free physical memory on the server (by removing unwanted applications from the memory), then you can reduce these errors.
    Permanent solution would be to add more physical RAM (with 4GT on 32 bit) or switch to 64 bit architecture.

    Typo corrected and added following.
    You can set DIRECT_HANDOFF_TTC_LISTENER=OFF in listener.ora and restar the database as temporary solution. Check metalink Doc ID: 233747.1

    Hi guys,
    I have started my listener from 10.2.0.5 home , which was in 10.2.0.4.
    from that point am having issue connect to 10.2.0.4 databases which are in restricted session(DR db)
    when I try to connect to databases which are in restricted session it says TNS connection closed. databases which are open am able to connect.
    listener.log shows
    TNS-12518: TNS:listener could not hand off client connection TNS-12547: TNS:lost contact TNS-12560: TNS:protocol adapter error TNS-00517: Lost contact Solaris Error: 32: Broken pipe
    any idea why its happening.

    Oracle is victim; not culprit.
    Root cause & solution is external to Oracle
    How many different DB versions installed on this system?

  • TNS-12518: TNS:listener could not hand off client connection, XE 10g/WinXP

    I've installed Oracle XE 10 on Windows XP. When I browse to the database homepage, I get this in listener.log:
    Listening on: (DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=tcp)(HOST=127.0.0.1)(PORT=8080))(Presentation=HTTP)(Session=RAW))
    08-FEB-2012 01:07:24 * service_register * xe * 0
    08-FEB-2012 01:07:24 * http * (ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=tcp)(HOST=127.0.0.1)(PORT=1702)) * handoff * http * 12518
    TNS-12518: TNS:listener could not hand off client connection
    TNS-12560: TNS:protocol adapter error
    I don't think it is shortage of resources (just rebooted). I put "DIRECT_HANDOFF_TTC_LISTENER=OFF" in listener.ora .. no luck. I removed the listener.ora file altogether ... ditto.
    What else could cause this?

    I can connect from SQLPlus. Laptop has 3 GB RAM.
