SYMPTOMS
When installing Rollup Pack for Oracle Utilities Application Framework Version 4.3.0.1.0, ran ouafDatabasePatch.cmd command , and got the following errors:
D:\RMB\RMB-V2.5.0.1.0-FW-PREREQ-MultiPlatform\FW-V4.3.0.1.0-Rollup\Database>set TOOLSBIN=D:\dbpatch_tools\bin D:\RMB\RMB-V2.5.0.1.0-FW-PREREQ-MultiPlatform\FW-V4.3.0.1.0-Rollup\Database>set JAVA_HOME=D:\java D:\RMB\RMB-V2.5.0.1.0-FW-PREREQ-MultiPlatform\FW-V4.3.0.1.0-Rollup\Database>ouafDatabasePatch.cmd "CMDLINE::: D:\java\bin\java.exe -cp D:\RMB\RMB-V2.5.0.1.0-FW-PREREQ-MultiPlatform\dbpatch_tools\lib\*;D:\RMB\RMB-V2.5.0.1.0-FW-PREREQ-MultiPlatform\dbpatch_tools\config com.oracle.ouaf.database.patch.OUAFPatch" Enter the target database type (O/M/D) [O]: O Enter the username that owns the schema: CISADM Enter the password for the CISADM user: XXXXXX Enter the name of the Oracle Database Connection String: ractest-scan.ractest.local:1521:ORMB Couldn't connect to database ORACLE ractest-scan.ractest.local:1521:ORMB CISADM : java.sql.SQLException: Listener refused the connection with the following error: ORA-12505, TNS:listener does not currently know of SID given in connect descriptor
In connection string “ractest-scan.ractest.local:1521:ORMB”, ORMB is a service name instead of instance name.
SOLUTION
1)Apply patch 22505470: PATCHES APPEND EXTRA SPACE TO STRINGS AND ADD DBSERVICE CONNECTION SUPPORT.
2) Replace D:\dbpatch_tools\lib with new ones.
OR
2) Add below parameter into LISTENER.ora , and bounce/reload the listener.
USE_SID_AS_SERVICE_listener=on
