websphere test connection failed java.sql.SQLException: invalid arguments in callDSRA0010E

Question

Server 1 : DMGR server (6.1 version)

Server 2 : WAS 6.1 installed and used as a node for application server (ojdbc14.jar file copied into this server)

Server 3: Oracle 10gR2 installed and listeners and tns are setup correctly

What i have done:

1. Created an user (appli_01) in the database wasdb02 resdies at server3.
2. telnet server3 1521 from server2 as well as server1 success.
3. Created a JAAS - J2C authentication alias with alias=sample1 username = appli_01 (database username) password=password of that database user
4. Created a JDBC provider

5. Created a datasource and gave the values as follows

   JNDI name :jdbc/sample1  
   Component-managed authentication alias : sample1  
   URL = jdbc:oracle:thin:@server3:1521:wasdb02
   

6. Then saved and sync the changes.

And Finally if i click the test connection i got below error:

The test connection operation failed for data source sampledb on server nodeagent at node server3Node03 with the following exception: java.sql.SQLException: invalid arguments in callDSRA0010E: SQL State = null, Error Code = 17,433. View JVM logs for further details.

and systemout log is as follows.

Answer 1

I used to get that a lot in WebSphere 6.1 and it would only be resolved by restarting the nodeagent and the server processes. Unfortunately, I never got a chance to diagnose the root cause.
