I set up a connection to a Hive server using the Hortonworks ODBC Driver for Apache Hive. Version info is below:
OS: Windows Server 2012 R2 Standard
Hive: 1.2.1000.2.6.5.4-1
Hadoop: 2.7.3.2.6.5.4-1
Hortonworks ODBC Driver for Apache Hive
ODBC Version: 03.80
Driver Version: 2.1.12.1017
Bitness: 64-bit
Locale: en_US
I can run the queries below using the connector that I configured in Teradata SQL Assistant with no issues. I set up my DSN as a linked server in SSMS. However, when I attempt to run the queries in SSMS using openquery, I have some issues. Info on my SQL Server is below:
Microsoft SQL Server 2016 (SP2-CU3) (KB4458871) - 13.0.5216.0 (X64) Sep 13 2018 22:16:01 Copyright (c) Microsoft Corporation Enterprise Edition (64-bit) on Windows Server 2012 R2 Standard 6.3 <X64> (Build 9600: ) (Hypervisor)
Here is some info on the table that I am querying:
Table Name: instrumentapps_event
Using OPENQUERY, I am capable of querying the Hive DB through SSMS with the following query:
SELECT * FROM OPENQUERY(KMhivehttp, 'select * from dmfwk_gold.instrumentapps_event')
The above query returns the contents of the desired table. However, the query below produces an error:
SELECT * FROM OPENQUERY(KMhivehttp, 'select * from dmfwk_gold.instrumentapps_event WHERE to_date(from_unixtime(UNIX_TIMESTAMP(load_ts,''yyyy/MM/dd''))) >= to_date(''2019-03-01'')')
The error is as follows:
Msg 7355, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
The OLE DB provider "MSDASQL" for linked server "KMhivehttp" supplied inconsistent metadata for a column. The name was changed at execution time.
How can I fix this?
While I'm unsure how to fix the problem that I previously faced (I suspect it to be a bug with the Hortonworks ODBC driver), I did discover a workaround.
Instead of running:
SELECT * FROM OPENQUERY(KMhivehttp,
'SELECT *
FROM dmfwk_gold.instrumentapps_event
WHERE to_date(from_unixtime(UNIX_TIMESTAMP(load_ts,''yyyy/MM/dd''))) >=
to_date(''2019-03-01'')
')
I now use:
SELECT * FROM OPENQUERY(KMhivehttp, 'select * from dmfwk_gold.instrumentapps_event')
WHERE load_ts >= CAST('2019-03-01' AS DATE);
This allows me to avoid any metadata errors.
We have an application running locally where we're experiencing the following error:
ORA-12514: TNS:listener does not currently know of service requested
in connect descriptor
I've tested the connection using TNSPing which resolved correctly and
I tried SQLPlus to try connecting, which failed with the same error as above. I used this syntax for SQLPlus:
sqlplus username/password#addressname[or host name]
We have verified that:
the TNS Listener on the server is running.
Oracle itself on the server is running.
We don't know of any changes that were made to this environment.
Anything else we can test?
I had this issue and the fix was to make sure in tnsnames.ora the SERVICE_NAME is a valid service name in your database. To find out valid service names, you can use the following query in oracle:
select value from v$parameter where name='service_names'
Once I updated tnsnames.ora to:
TEST =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = *<validhost>*)(PORT = *<validport>*))
)
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVER = DEDICATED)
(SERVICE_NAME = *<servicenamefromDB>*)
)
)
then I ran:
sqlplus user#TEST
Success!
The listener is basically telling you that whatever service_name you are using isn't a valid service according to the DB.
(*I was running sqlplus from Win7 client workstation to remote DB and blame the DBAs ;) *)
I know this is an old question, but still unanswered. It took me a day of research, but I found the simplest solution, at least in my case (Oracle 11.2 on Windows 2008 R2) and wanted to share.
The error, if looked at directly, indicates that the listener does not recognize the service name. But where does it keep service names? In %ORACLE_HOME%\NETWORK\ADMIN\listener.ora
The "SID_LIST" is just that, a list of SIDs and service names paired up in a format you can copy or lookup.
I added the problem Service Name, then in Windows "Services" control panel, I did a "Restart" on the Oracle listener service. Now all is well.
For example, your listener.ora file might initially look like:
# listener.ora Network Configuration File: C:\app\oracle_user\product\12.1.0\dbhome_1\network\admin\listener.ora
# Generated by Oracle configuration tools.
SID_LIST_LISTENER =
(SID_LIST =
(SID_DESC =
(SID_NAME = CLRExtProc)
(ORACLE_HOME = C:\app\oracle_user\product\12.1.0\dbhome_1)
(PROGRAM = extproc)
(ENVS = "EXTPROC_DLLS=ONLY:C:\app\oracle_user\product\12.1.0\dbhome_1\bin\oraclr12.dll")
)
)
LISTENER =
(DESCRIPTION_LIST =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = localhost)(PORT = 1521))
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = IPC)(KEY = EXTPROC1521))
)
)
... And to make it recognize a service name of orcl, you might change it to:
# listener.ora Network Configuration File: C:\app\oracle_user\product\12.1.0\dbhome_1\network\admin\listener.ora
# Generated by Oracle configuration tools.
SID_LIST_LISTENER =
(SID_LIST =
(SID_DESC =
(SID_NAME = CLRExtProc)
(ORACLE_HOME = C:\app\oracle_user\product\12.1.0\dbhome_1)
(PROGRAM = extproc)
(ENVS = "EXTPROC_DLLS=ONLY:C:\app\oracle_user\product\12.1.0\dbhome_1\bin\oraclr12.dll")
)
(SID_DESC =
(GLOBAL_DBNAME = orcl)
(ORACLE_HOME = C:\app\oracle_user\product\12.1.0\dbhome_1)
(SID_NAME = orcl)
)
)
LISTENER =
(DESCRIPTION_LIST =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = localhost)(PORT = 1521))
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = IPC)(KEY = EXTPROC1521))
)
)
In my circumstances the error was due to the fact the listener did not have the db's service registered. I solved this by registering the services. Example:
My descriptor in tnsnames.ora:
LOCALDB =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = localhost)(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVER = DEDICATED)
(SERVICE_NAME = LOCALDB)
)
)
So, I proceed to register the service in the listener.ora manually:
SID_LIST_LISTENER =
(SID_DESC =
(GLOBAL_DBNAME = LOCALDB)
(ORACLE_HOME = C:\Oracle\product\11.2.0\dbhome_1)
(SID_NAME = LOCALDB)
)
Finally, restart the listener by command:
> lsnrctl stop
> lsnrctl start
Done!
I had this issue at Windows server 2008 R2 and Oracle 11g
go to Net Manager > Listener > select database services form the combox > "Global Database Name" must be same as "SID" and "Oracle Home Directory" must be correct.
If you don't have any entry for database services, create one and set correct global database , sid and oracle home.
This really should be a comment to [Brad Rippe][1]'s answer, but alas, not enough rep. That answer got me 90% of the way there. In my case, the installation and configuration of the databases put entries in the tnsnames.ora file for the databases I was running. First, I was able to connect to the database by setting the environment variables (Windows):
set ORACLE_SID=mydatabase
set ORACLE_HOME=C:\Oracle\product\11.2.0\dbhome_1
and then connecting using
sqlplus / as sysdba
Next, running the command from Brad Rippe's answer:
select value from v$parameter where name='service_names';
showed that the names didn't match exactly. The entries as created using Oracle's Database Configuration Assistant were originally:
MYDATABASE =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = mylaptop.mydomain.com)(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVER = DEDICATED)
(SERVICE_NAME = mydatabase.mydomain.com)
)
)
The service name from the query was just mydatabase rather than mydatabase.mydomain.com. I edited the tnsnames.ora file to just the base name without the domain portion so they looked like this:
MYDATABASE =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = mylaptop.mydomain.com)(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVER = DEDICATED)
(SERVICE_NAME = mydatabase)
)
)
I restarted the TNS Listener service (I often use lsnrctl stop and lsnrctl start from an administrator command window [or Windows Powershell] instead of the Services control panel, but both work.) After that, I was able to connect.

Starting the OracleServiceXXX from the services.msc worked for me in Windows.
For thoses Who are using spring-boot and jdbc for connection.
You have to be careful while writing jdbcUrl in application.properties
With SID in Database connection -
source.datasource.jdbcUrl = jdbc:oracle:thin:#[HOST][:PORT]:SID
With Service name in db connection
globe.datasource.jdbcUrl = jdbc:oracle:thin:#//[HOST][:PORT]/SERVICE
This worked for me :)
For Dbeaver users: try selecting "SID" instead of "Service name" in connection settings.
I had the same problem. For me, just writing
sqlplus myusername/mypassword#localhost
did the trick, doing so makes it connect to the default service name, I guess.
This error can occur when an application makes a new connection for every database interaction or the connections are not closed properly. One of the free tools to monitor and confirm this is Oracle Sql developer (although this is not the only tool you can use to monitor DB sessions).
you can download the tool from oracle site Sql Developer
here is a screenshot of how to monitor you sessions. (if you see many sessions piling up for your application user during when you see the ORA-12514 error then it's a good indication that you may have connection pool problem).
Check to see the database is up. Log onto the server, set the ORACLE_SID environment variable to your database SID, and run SQL*Plus as a local connection.
I resolved this issue in my linux enviroment updating the IP of my machine in /etc/hosts file.
You can verify your network IP (inet end.) with:
$ifconfig
See if your IP matches with /etc/hosts file:
$cat /etc/hosts
Edit your /etc/hosts file, if nedded:
$sudo gedit /etc/hosts
Bye.
what worked for me was really simple, I just needed to initiate the service manually in the "Windows Services" (services.msc in cmd trompt).
my service name is: OracleServiceXXXXX.
I had also faced the same problem and spent 3 days to dig it out.
This happens because of your wrong TNS service entry.
First check whether you are able to connect to standby database from primary database using sql > sqlplus sys#orastand as sysdba (orastand is a standby database).
If you are not able to connect then it is a problem with the service. Correct the entry of service name in TNS file at primary end.
Check standby database the same way. Make the changes here too if required.
Make sure the log_archive_dest_2 parameter has the correct service name.
For those that may be running Oracle in a VM (like me) I saw this issue because my VM was running out of memory, which seems to have prevented OracleDB from starting up/running correctly. Increasing my VM memory and restarting fixed the issue.
Lots of answers here, but here comes a working example with code that you can copy and paste and test immediately:
For me the error 12514 was solved after specifying the correct SERVICE_NAME.
You find that on the server in the file tnsnames.ora which comes with 3 predefined service names (one of them is "XE").
I installed the Oracle Express database OracleXE112 which already comes with some preinstalled demo tables.
When you start the installer you are asked for a password. I entered "xxx" as password. (not used in production)
My server runs on the machine 192.168.1.158
On the server you must explicitely allow access for the process TNSLSNR.exe in the Windows Firewall. This process listens on port 1521.
OPTION A: For C# (.NET2 or .NET4) you can download ODAC11, from which you have to add Oracle.DataAccess.dll to your project. Additionally this DLL depends on: OraOps11w.dll, oci.dll, oraociei11.dll (130MB!), msvcr80.dll.
These DLLs must be in the same directory as the EXE or you must specify the DLL path in: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Oracle\ODP.NET\4.112.4.0\DllPath. On 64 bit machines write additionally to HKLM\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Oracle\...
OPTION B: If you have downloaded ODAC12 you need Oracle.DataAccess.dll, OraOps12w.dll, oci.dll, oraociei12.dll (160MB!), oraons.dll, msvcr100.dll. The Registry path is HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Oracle\ODP.NET\4.121.2.0\DllPath
OPTION C: If you don't want huge DLL's of more than 100 MB you should download ODP.NET_Managed12.x.x.x.xxxxx.zip in which you find Oracle.ManagedDataAccess.dll which is only 4 MB and is a pure managed DLL which works in 32 bit and 64 bit processes as well and depends on no other DLL and does not require any registry entries.
The following C# code works for me without any configuration on the server side (just the default installation):
using Oracle.DataAccess.Client;
or
using Oracle.ManagedDataAccess.Client;
....
string oradb = "Data Source=(DESCRIPTION="
+ "(ADDRESS_LIST=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)(HOST=192.168.1.158)(PORT=1521)))"
+ "(CONNECT_DATA=(SERVER=DEDICATED)(SERVICE_NAME=XE)));"
+ "User Id=SYSTEM;Password=xxx;";
using (OracleConnection conn = new OracleConnection(oradb))
{
conn.Open();
using (OracleCommand cmd = new OracleCommand())
{
cmd.Connection = conn;
cmd.CommandText = "select TABLESPACE_NAME from DBA_DATA_FILES";
using (OracleDataReader dr = cmd.ExecuteReader())
{
while (dr.Read())
{
listBox.Items.Add(dr["TABLESPACE_NAME"]);
}
}
}
}
If the SERVICE_NAME=XE is wrong you get error 12514. The SERVICE_NAME is optional. You can also leave it away.
In my case the database had ran out of disk space. Which caused it to not respond. Once I cleared up that issue everything worked again.
I got the same error because the remote SID specified was wrong:
> sqlplus $DATASOURCE_USERNAME/$DATASOURCE_PASSWORD#$DB_SERVER_URL/$REMOTE_SID
I queried the system database:
select * from global_name;
and found my remote SID ("XE").
Then I could connect without any problem.
In my case, round brackets around the SERVICE_NAME was missing in the tnsnames.ora file.
<DBNAME> =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL=TCP)(HOST = nupark-cnvr-ora )(PORT=1521))
)
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVER = DEDICATED)
(SERVICE_NAME = <DBNAME> ***CLOSING ROUND BRACKET WAS MISSING HERE***
)
)
LISTENER_<DBNAME> =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = nupark-cnvr-ora)(PORT = 1521))
I had just to replace my connection string
from:
jdbc:oracle:thin:#localhost:1521:xe
To:
jdbc:oracle:thin:#localhost:1521:orcl
For me this was caused by using a dynamic ipadress using installation. I reinstalled Oracle using a static ipadress and then everything was fine
Restarting the VM worked for me
My issue was resolved by replacing the'SID' in URL with 'service name' and correct host.
tnslsnr is up but database is down.
For oracle novice it is not obvious that database may be down while connections are accepted.
I had to start up database manually like that
su - oracle
export ORACLE_SID=XE
sqlplus sys as sysdba
And then in sql console
startup
In my case i failed to startup but got another error message and found the source of a problem - i had to change host name and then database auto startup was functional again.
I have implemented below workaround to resolve this issue.
I have set the ORACLE_HOME using command prompt
(right click cmd.exe and Run as System administrator).
Used below command
set oracle_home="path to the oracle home"
Go to All programs --> Oracle -ora home1 --> Configuration migration tools --> Net Manager --> Listener
Select Database Services from dropdown.
Both Global database name and SID are set to the same (ORCL in my case).
Set Oracle Home Directory.
Oracle Net Manager window example from oracle documentation:
Click on File and save network configuration.
The problem was that my connection string url contained database name instead of SID.
Replacing database name with oracle database connection SID solved this problem.
To know your oracle SID's you can browse tnsnames.ora file.
XE was the actual SID, so this is how my tomcat connection string looks like now:
<Resource
name="jdbc/my_db_conn"
auth="Container"
type="javax.sql.DataSource"
driverClassName="oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver"
url="jdbc:oracle:thin:#//127.0.0.1:1521/XE"
username="test_user"
password="test" />
My server version was "Oracle 11.2 Express", but solution should work on other versions too.
I had a case that I used DBMS where I had to fulfill a db connection form.
I put SID into the Database field and in the dropdown, next to the field, I had had 'Service Name' value instead of 'SID' value.
(normally I don't use Oracle database so I've not been aware of the difference)
That was the reason I got the error message.
The problem can be in the incorrect URL.
For example, I'm using Oracle database (inside VM) with Spring framework and having this issue.
I had in my application.properties file:
spring.datasource.url=jdbc:oracle:thin:#//localhost:1521/orcl12c
But the db version was defferent:
spring.datasource.url=jdbc:oracle:thin:#//localhost:1521/orclcdb
The correct URL can be found in the tnsnames.ora file (this file would be available where the Oracle server, so if you using VM, you should look for this file inside your host VM).
For example for Oracle in the VirtualBox the command to see this file is:
nano /u01/app/oracle/product/version/db_1/network/admin/tnsnames.ora
In my case for Linux environment, the oracle file at ORACLE_HOME/bin was highlighted in "Red" color with different permissions as below:
I changed the permissions of this file as below:
1) Stop Oracle -> sudo systemctl stop oracle.service
2) Change the permission of oracle file at ORACLE_HOME/bin directory as "sudo chmod 777 oracle"
3) Start Oracle -> sudo systemctl start oracle.service
Then after this change, I checked the status of listener using lsnrctl status.Here, I can see the db instances loaded successfully.
However, I can connect using sqldeveloper only, with sqlplus command line I'm getting ORA-12547: TNS Lost Contact error. So, this can a quick workaround to use sqldeveloper.
Note: Take a backup of oracle file before changing the permissions.
I have installed Oracle 11g DB and 10g Developers suite (need to use forms builder).
I've made a new database called genericName and I'm trying to connect to it using sys/myPasswordChoice/genericName to it from Form builder.
I'm getting the following error:
ORA-12154: TNS could not resolve the connection identifier specified
I've searched the Internet for a solution and it seems that I need to modify something in one of the .ora files.
Any ideas how to fix this error?
Yes even Oracle 6i can connect to 11g!!!
check $oracle_home/network/admin/tnsnames.ora. ($oracle_home is where developer suite is installed)
Add the entry manualy or use net configuration assistant gui tool. The next lines:
apex2 =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 10.53.2.55)(PORT = 1521))
)
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVICE_NAME = uni11g)
)
)
describes the tns name apex2 (the one you use in forms to connect), that points to an 11g database installed in 10.53.2.55 ip with the sid uni11g. adapt them to your settings
Often, it's a typographical error in your connexion string or in your tnsnames.ora file (general tnsnames.ora location is: $ORACLE_HOME/network/admin/tnsnames.ora). More information here : 11g/ORA-12154.
