Resolution 1). Confirm with the Oracle DBA the correct SID. Use the "tnsping" command to check the DB status.
Resolution 2): Modify the connection URL to use the Service Name instead of the SID. If the listener is configured for Service Name then use the following connection URL:
jdbc:oracle:thin:@hostname:1521/<service_name> Connection URLs for Oracle Native JDBC Driver
--------------------------------------------------------------------- For SID: jdbc:oracle:thin:@hostname:1521:<SID> for Service Name: jdbc:oracle:thin:@hostname:1521/<ServiceName> The connection URL for Oracle DataDirect Driver
---------------------------------------------------------------------- For SID: jdbc:tibcosoftwareinc:oracle://<host>:<port1521>;SID=<sid> For Service Name: jdbc:tibcosoftwareinc:oracle://<host>:<port1521>;ServiceName=<ServiceName> | |||
