Error

Reason

Resolution

Failed to validate account: Failed to retrieve a database connection. 

ORA-00604: error occurred at recursive SQL level 1 ORA-12705: Cannot access NLS data files or invalid environment specified

Configuring your Windows Registry key value, HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\International\LocaleName, in the environment to true or en-US has been observed to work for some Windows-based Groundplex instances. Additional probable solutions can be found here.

Note Use this option if you want to use complex JDBC URLs (involving multiple hosts and advanced options) to connect to your Oracle instance. For example, if you want to connect to Oracle DataGuard, you can enter a JDBC like the one below: jdbc:oracle:thin:@(DESCRIPTION=(FAILOVER=on)(ADDRESS_LIST=(LOAD_BALANCE=on)(CONNECT_TIMEOUT=3)(RETRY_COUNT=3)(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)(HOST=host1)(PORT=1521))(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)(HOST=host2)(PORT=1522)))(CONNECT_DATA=(SERVICE_NAME=OracleTest)))
Username Default Value: N/A Example: TECTONIC	String	None	The user name that is allowed to connect to the database. It is used as the default username when retrieving connections. The user name must be valid in order to set up the data source.
Password Default Value: N/A Example: Oracle123DB	String	None	The password used to connect to the data source. It is used as the default password when retrieving connections. The password must be valid in order to set up the data source.
JDBC JARs	List of JDBC JAR files to be loaded. Click Image Modified to add a JDBC Driver; click Image Modified to remove a JDBC Driver.
JDBC Driver Default Value: N/A Example: N/A	String	None	Multiexcerpt include macro name Oracle JDBC Driver Upgrade -Behavior Change templateData eJyLjgUAARUAuQ== page Oracle Thin Dynamic Account addpanel false Learn more: Oracle Driver Upgrade from Oracle JDBC 11.2.0.4 Driver to 19.20.0.0 Driver Enter the JDBC jar file to be loaded. Use  to select an existing file. A different driver binary for a driver must have a different name, the same name can not be reused for a different driver. If this property is left blank, a default JDBC driver is loaded. Warning Only v11.2.0.4.0 or higher JDBC driver supports user-defined types.
JDBC Driver Class Default Value:oracle.jdbc.OracleDriver Example: oracle.jdbc.OracleDriver	String	None	Required. The name of the JBDC driver to use.
Database specifier type Default Value: Service name Example: Service name	String	None	Specify the database specifier type to use. The selected option decides which format of URL for JDBC is to be used internally. The valid options are: SID: Uses the jdbc:oracle:thin@HOST:PORT:DBNAME format. Service name: Uses the jdbc:oracle:thin@//HOST:PORT/DBNAME format.
SSL/ TCPS Default Value: Deselected	String		Opt for or against connecting through SSL to the Oracle instance. If selected, the following format of URL is used internally: jdbc:oracle:thin@(DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCPS)(HOST=<HOST>)(PORT=<PORT>))(CONNECT_DATA=(<SID/ SERVICE_NAME>=<DATABASE_NAME>)))
Advanced properties	Specify advanced properties to connect to the database.
Auto commit Authentication method   Default Value:  Selected	String	Opt for or against setting the auto-commit property for a database. When selected, each of the batches is committed immediately after it is executed. If the Snap fails, only the batch being executed at that moment is rolled back. When not selected, the Snap execution output is committed only after all the batches are executed. If the Snap fails, the entire transaction is rolled back, unless the Snap finds invalid input data before it sends the insert request to the server, and routes the error documents to the Error view.	Integer	Required. Set the number of statements that the Snap must execute at a time. Note Select queries are not batched. Warning Using a large batch size could use up the JDBC placeholder limit of 2100.	Integer	Required. Set the number of rows that the Snap must fetch at a time when executing a query. Warning Large values could cause the server to run out of memory. Max pool User ID and Password Example: Kerberos	Dropdown List	None	Choose the authentication method to use when connecting to Oracle. The available options are: User ID and Password Kerberos Kerberos authentication for Oracle supports both Windows and Linux-based databases and also supports Service account and User impersonation Kerberos authentication. When the authentication method is Kerberos, for the service account, , you must leave the Username and Password fields empty and add the below property to the URL Properties: oracle.net.kerberos5_cc_name = <Path to cache file>
Kerberos config path   Default Value: N/A Example: /opt/app/oracle/dbhome/network/admin/krb5.conf	String/Expression	Appears when the Authentication method is Kerberos.	Specify the path to the Kerberos configuration file. Kerberos authentication for Oracle supports both Windows and Linux-based databases and also supports Service account and User impersonation Kerberos authentication.
Advanced properties	Specify advanced properties to connect to the database.
Auto commit Default Value: Selected	String	None	Opt for or against setting the auto-commit property for a database. When selected, each of the batches is committed immediately after it is executed. If the Snap fails, only the batch being executed at that moment is rolled back. When not selected, the Snap execution output is committed only after all the batches are executed. If the Snap fails, the entire transaction is rolled back, unless the Snap finds invalid input data before it sends the insert request to the server, and routes the error documents to the Error view.
Batch size Default Value: 50 Example:  50 100	Integer	None	Required. Set the maximum number of connections statements that a pool the Snap must maintain execute at a time. Max life time . Note Select queries are not batched. Warning Using a large batch size could use up the JDBC placeholder limit of 2100.
Fetch size Default Value: 30  100 Example:  35 100	Integer	None	Required. Set the maximum time (in minutes) of a connection in the pool. Ensure that the value you enter is a few seconds shorter than any database or infrastructure-imposed connection time limit. A value of 0 indicates an infinite lifetime, subject to the Idle Timeout value. An in-use connection is never retired. Connections are removed only after they are closed. Idle Timeout number of rows that the Snap must fetch at a time when executing a query. Warning Large values could cause the server to run out of memory.
Max pool size Default Value:  5 50 Example:  5 50	Integer	None	Required. Set the maximum time (in minutes) that a connection is allowed to sit idle in the pool. A value of 0 indicates that idle connections are never removed from the pool. Checkout timeout maximum number of connections that a pool must maintain at a time.
Max life time Default Value:  10000 30 Example:  10000 35	Integer	None	Required. Set the maximum time in milliseconds to wait for a connection to be available when the pool is exhausted.  Info If you provide 0, the Snap waits infinitely until the connection is available. Therefore, we recommend you not to specify 0 for Checkout Timeout.

String	Name for the URL property.
URL property value Default Value: N/A Example: 10	N/A	Value for the URL property.
