Last updated on AUGUST 30, 2023

Applies to:

Oracle Virtual Directory - Version 11.1.1.2.0 to 11.1.1.6.0 [Release 11g]
Information in this document applies to any platform.

Symptoms

The log message below is logged for one ECID multiple times per second in the Oracle Virtual Directory (OVD) 11g log, i.e., 11.1.1.6, while connection is lost with OVD and the OVD process gets killed. And very often the OVD process goes into a "Stop" status and requires restarting, sometimes more than once to correct the problem.
