Last updated on AUGUST 30, 2023

Applies to:

JDBC - Version 11.2.0.2.0 to 11.2.0.3.0 [Release 11.2]
Information in this document applies to any platform.

Symptoms

This issue occurs using JDBC driver 11.2.0.2 and 11.2.0.3 with wallets involved connecting to a RAC database via a SCAN listener. Although SQL*Plus and JDBC OCI will connect successfully in this configuration, and JDBC thin works fine when connecting to the local listeners, trying to go via SCAN fails with:
