Status: Verified
FACT(s) (Environment):
Oracle DataServer
SYMPTOM(s):
Unable to connect ORACLE db
BROKER: Could not spawn a server. (1890)
Failed to connect to ORACLE database . (1451)
Disconnected from server because database name was incorrect. (437)
Using DataServer Broker
CAUSE:
Environment variable ORASRV is not set or is incorrect.
The _probrkr executable starts the broker which spawns the DataServer process, the _orasrv. Unless you set ORASRV to point to another DataServer executable, the broker starts the default DataServer executable which resides within %DLC%\bin directory ($DLC/bin).
This variable is especially important when working with multiple versions of Progress. When the broker is started, it knows which _orasrv process to start.
FIX:
1. Set ORASRV variable to the DataServer process.
UNIX
ORASRV=$DLC/bin/_orasrv
Windows
set ORASRV=%DLC%\bin\_orasrv.exe
**Set this environment variable can be set at the system level and/or in the same session where the DataServer Broker is started.
2. Start _probrkr
_probrkr -S service -N tcp -H hostname
