119)  ORA-01665: control file is not a standby control file. While recovering standby database, using command alter database recover managed standby database disconnect from session it fails with message ORA-01665


120)  Recover database after only lose of all controlfiles. You have lost all your current and backup of controlfile. You have avaiable your current data files. You have available your online redo log files.


121)  MAXDATAFILES , DB_FILES parameters and ORA-00059. Whenever I try to create tablespace it fails with error message, ORA-00059


122)  ORA-01667: cannot add any more tablespaces: limit of exceeded. If your database version is higher than 8 suppose 10.2g then when MAXDATAFILES of your control file reached then MAXDATAFILES parameter would expand automatically unless you hit bug. You can see the post here,
New Feature of 10.2g Eliminate Control file Recreation
However if you are before 8 then while creating any tablespace and while adding a datafile to a tablespace you may get ORA-01667: cannot add any more tablespaces: limit of exceeded

129)  How to Restore the Controlfile from Backup. If you loss or if your all copies of control file is corrupted and if you have backup of your control file then it is required to restore your control file from your backup


130)  New Feature of 10.2g: Eliminate Control File Re-Creation. Before Oracle 10.2g if we need to change the limit of MAXLOGFILE, MAXLOGMEMBERS, MAXLOGHISTORY, MAXDATAFILES, and MAXINSTANCES then the possible solutions is either RE-create new controlfile or create a new database. But from Oracle 10.2g all sections of the control file are now automatically extended when they run out of space. This means that there is no longer a requirement to re-create the control file when changes in the configuration parameter the MAXLOGFILE, MAXLOGMEMBERS, MAXLOGHISTORY, MAXDATAFILES, and MAXINSTANCES are needed


131)  kccrsz: denied expansion of controlfile section 9 by 65535 record(s). The machine did not respond properly and in the alert log you the got the following. kccrsz: denied expansion of controlfile section 9 by 65535 record(s) the number of records is already at maximum value (65535).


132)  ORA-01450: maximum key length (3215) exceeded. Whenever I try to rebuild index online then it fails with message ORA-00604: error occurred at recursive SQL level 1 along with ORA-01450: maximum key length (3215) exceeded.


133)  How to determine OS block size for windows or unix. In many times you probably have heard about set the oracle db block size as a multiple of the OS block size. But whenever you ask how I can determine or find OS block size for windows or Unix then many one get stopped. In fact this question is OS related.


134)  Overview of Extents and when extents are allocated, When Extents are de-allocated.


135)  Playing with Oracle data block size. I have experiment of oracle data block size with 8k and 16K. I performed DML operation against both 8k and 16k data block size. I created two tables table_8k under 8k tablespace tbs_8k and table_16k under 16k tablespace tbs_16k. The summary of the experiment is bigger data block cause more time while update but less time while insert operation.






138)  DB_BLOCK_SIZE, DB_nK_CACHE_SIZE and BLOCKSIZE. First I want to say about BLOCKSIZE cluase in oracle. The BLOCKSIZE cluase is used to specify the block size for the tablespace. If you don't specify this clause while tablespace creation then standard that is default blocksize is used which is specified by parameter DB_BLOCK_SIZE.


139)  When datafile bytes size greater than maxbytes. From dba_data_files we can check the size of the datafile, the maximum size of the datafile it can grows if AUTOEXTENSIBLE option is set and their status with many other fields.




141)  ORA-01295: DB_ID mismatch between dictionary USE_ONLINE_CATALOG and logfiles. While doing remote mining in the mining database through logminer START_LOGMNR procedure fails with ORA-01295. May be you want to analysis redo log files of the production database in the testing environment.












147)  Archiving not possible: No primary destinations. Today I got a very interesting problem. The developer told me that they can't connect to database. It says ORA-00257: archiver error. Then I log on to the database and it was ok. I asked developer it is fine. After some time developers again asked me they are having the same problem. I then look for alert log and saw the following stack of message.

199)  Java.lang.Exception: IOException in sending Request. this problem will appear if you just change the Time Zone of your system.


200)  You must have CREATE TARGET privilege to perform this operation. In the Enterprise Manager main page (connected with SYS as SYSDBA or as SYSTEM), when I click on performance tab, it gives me following notification




202)  In EM connection fails with ERROR: NMO not setuid-root (Unix-only). This problem is notified on Unix system only.
Whenever you try to connect to enterprise manager after giving host username and password as prompted it fails with message
HostPassword - Connection to host as user oracle failed: ERROR: NMO not setuid-root (Unix-only)




204)  Does oversize of datatype VARCHAR2 causes performance problem. From the beginning of learning Oracle SQL you have possibly heard that in case of VARCHAR2 datatype it allocates space exactly what it needs. So if you allocates 4000 bytes of VARCHAR2 data type and database needs 10 bytes only then exactly 10 bytes are allocated






























219)  Export fails with ORA-24324 ORA-07445: exception encountered: core dump [ACCESS_VIOLATION]. Database export operation fails with ORA-24324 and ORA-07445

Now while doing full database export/import, exp fails with EXP-00023 and expdp fails with ORA-31631: privileges are required , ORA-39161: Full database jobs require privileges




235)  Version Query Pseudocolumns, The version query pseudocolumns are only valid for flashback version query which are discussed on Flashback Version Query.


236)  ORA-01466: unable to read data - table definition has changed, Whenever you tried to flashback of a table immediately after creating table and inserting data into it, or you tried to flashback of the table to a time or to a SCN before creating it then flashback table or flashback query fails with error message,


237)  ORA-08189: cannot flashback row movement is not enabled, Whenever I tried to Flashback Table feature of oracle the following error occurs.




239)  Flashback ON fails with ORA-38706 and ORA-38714, Whenever you tried to enable your database flashback feature it failed with errors.


240)  How to get back dropped Tablespace using Flashback Database, It needs to remember that if you drop your tablespace with including datafiles option then it is not possible to get your tablespace back with flashback database. While dropping if you use DROP TABLESPACE INCLUDING CONTENTS option then it is possible to get back tablespace.


241)  How to restore the old data using flashback query, My intention is , I want to get back past data of database after erroneously updated and committed.


242)  Limitation of Flashback Database, The Flashback Database allows you to get back the entire database to a specific point-in-time


243)  Flashback Database To The Right of Open Resetlogs, In some cases, you may need to return the database to a point in time in the parent incarnation, later than the SCN of the OPEN RESETLOGS at which the current incarnation path branched from the old incarnation.


244)  Flashback Database to Undo an OPEN RESETLOGS, Suppose you have opened your database with OPEN RESETLOGS option after performing flashback feature. And after that you have made unwanted changes in your database.


245)  Performing Flashback Database, Before going any production upgrade to database we can make a guaranteed restore point to database and if any wrong then we can get back to the restore point state. Guaranteed restore point always ensure that we can get back data to our restore point creation time.


246)  ORA-00439: feature not enabled: Flashback Database, While trying to enable flashback feature the error comes.


247)  Restore Point and Flashback Database. Flashback database enables us to get back our database to a prior time


248)  How to Enable Flashback Database, To enable flashback database the following operations is needed


249)  Flashback Table and Flashback Drop, The FLASHBACK TABLE statement enables users to get a table to a previous point in time. It provides a fast, online solution to get back a table that has been accidentally modified or deleted by a user or application. It eliminates the DBA to perform more complicated point in time recovery operations.

309)  How to disable SELinux, Before going to directly disabling SELinux let's have an idea about what SELinux is. SELinux indicates Security Enhanced Linux which is a security patch applied to Linux kernel. When it is enabled in the kernel it follows some principle of least privilege. It is an implementation of mandatory access control using Linux Security Modules.






312)  While startup listener it fails with HPUX Error: 29: Illegal seek, While issuing "lsnrctl start" command on HP-UX it fails with HPUX Error: 29: Illegal seek error like below


313)  TNS-01169: The listener has not recognized the password, The TNS-01169 error occurred because security feature is enabled for listener i.e password is set in listener.ora file but lsnrctl command is issued without proper authentication






316)  The listener supports no services, Whenever I issue lsnrctl status command it says "The listener supports no services" and no one from outside could not connect to database through listener


317)  Listener Hangs, Child listener process remains persistence, Some days ago in our database server we got a problem regarding listener issue. Our TNS Listener hangs. Below is the problem symtompts.


318)  ORA-12541: TNS:no listener, For newbie users they found ORA-12541 and search here and there to solve the problem. But it is one word about the error which it says no listener and think next what to do. Never mix this error with another error like ORA-12514: which are different and mutually exclusive.


319)  ORA-12514: TNS:listener does not currently know of service requested in connect descriptor, I will try to show how efficiently we can avoid error ORA-12514. My suggestion is whenever you get this error forget about tnsnames.ora and other stuff related to it. Start fixing problem step by step.


320)  How to Enable Listener Logging and Tracing, I will try to show two different ways to enable logging and tracing of listener.ora file. These logging and tracing helps you to identify the network problems and troubleshooting connection problems in oracle.It also help to identify when a client is connected to oracle database.


321)  RMAN login fails with ORA-12638, RMAN login to the target database fails with the following errors


322)  CONFIG: Error uploading configuration data to the repository while, While configuring dbconsole it fails with error message oracle.sysman.emdrep.config.ConfigurationException: FATAL Configuration Exceptions.

331)  Types of Operators in Orace? Concatenation, Arthimetic, User-Defined, Hierarchial, Set Operators?








335)  Database Objects in Oracle, If we look for database objects in oracle then there comes two types of objects, one is schema objects that are associated with a particular schema or in other word they are owned by a database user. And the other is nonschema Objects that are not reside in a particular schema


336)  How to Rename a User Through Oracle, There is nothing straight forward command in oracle to rename a user. You have to do it through several steps. In following I have shown it.


337)  Required users and groups while installing oracle, Drop Table Command, Default Tablespace in Oracle




339)  Working an object that resides on multiple datafile, An object can span in multiple datafiles within a single tablespace. In this case if I make one datafile offline then the contents within that datafile will be affected, other datafile is online and can be possible to query which may return rows with errors. To illustarte this scenario I will make two datafiles inside a tablespace.




















349)  RMAN-06172: no autobackup found, While performing disaster recovery I get the error RMAN-06172 as below




351)  OUI-10020: A write lock cannot be obtained

360)  Logminer fails with ORA-01284, ORA-00308, ORA-27047, Whenever you try to run the logminer in the mining database (different from source database. Source database is one in which redo or archived redo logs are generated and mining database is one in which you try to analysis those logs) to add logfile using DBMS_LOGMNR.ADD_LOGFILE it generates error ORA-01284, ORA-00308, ORA-27047




































378)  java.util.zip.ZipException: reading zip file central directory failed, While applying opatch, from the front end I see following message.




































396)  Troubleshoot ORA-06512: at line, ORA-06512 is a common error faced by Oracle DBA, programmers as well as end users. ORA-06512 does not identify the root cause of the problem, rather it only prints the line number where the errors or exception happened. So just before ORA-06512 there will be additional error which we may need to investigate. If the errors come from any function or package or package body or procedure then with ORA-06512 there exists the name of the function or package or package body or procedure as well as the line number of those objects where error is occurred.
