my hibernate.cfg.xml is as follows: oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver jdbc:oracle:thin:localhost:1522/DevDb SYSTEM oracle123

    <!-- JDBC connection pool (use the built-in) -->
    <property name="connection.pool_size">1</property>

    <!-- SQL dialect -->
    <property name="dialect">org.hibernate.dialect.OracleDialect</property>

    <!-- Disable the second-level cache  -->
    <property name="cache.provider_class">org.hibernate.cache.internal.NoCacheProvider</property>

    <!-- Echo all executed SQL to stdout -->
    <property name="show_sql">true</property>

    <!-- Drop and re-create the database schema on startup -->
    <property name="hbm2ddl.auto">create</property>

can somebody help me out to resolve this issue.

It says

ORA-12505, TNS:listener does not currently know of SID given in connect descriptor

my SID given is correct.

Answer 1

your jdbc connect string is only almost correct

oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver jdbc:oracle:thin:localhost:1522/DevDb 

This is correct

oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver jdbc:oracle:thin:@//localhost:1522/DevDb

Also, make sure to try to login using sqlplus before you try the ORM way.

Answer 2

your settings are correct, nothing to do with settins in a persistence.xml->older(hibernate.cfg.xml)

I had seen for a short time in a application in the middle of the night although this excepiton in server-logg but not in app-logg. I analysed that and my logic is handled right, this means this is a oracleXE bug or a app-server bug or ORM-Provider bug(hibernate)! this is sure, the app is running since months but this exeption never occured until know and the point is that nobdy invoked a client call! I restarted the server, every thing seems to be correct.

Maybe it can happen that if a network-connection was down for a short time and so serialization for data-objects between server and database could not be reachable, I don't know, it can be happen, because for example JBoss is caching data!
