All I see for the "below error message" is a big red x.

OK, never mind, I see the issue - the site you are using to host the image is blocked here. How about just posting the text of the error?

Ok Sure ...

EServicesbackbone89531: Cannot connect to the database.

The following error occurred: java.sql.SQLException: [IBM][Oracle JDBC Driver][Oracle]ORA-12505 Connection refused was not recognized by the Oracle server.)

Not sure if you've already looked that one up, but...

Code: Select all

$ oerr ORA 12505
12505, 00000, "TNS:listener does not currently know of SID given 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 SID for an instance (usually a database instance) 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 instances are currently known by the listener by executing:
//    lsnrctl services <listener name>
//  - Check that the SID parameter in the connect descriptor specifies
//    an instance known by the listener.
//  - Check for an event in the listener.log file.

I gave SID instead of DB name it is working for me now. :D

Thanks Craig - for your help.

Btw, from where you got this notes.

It's actually an 'Oracle Error' utility called oerr that you can run from your command line. That first line of the code box is me running it.
