Symptoms

ORDS has been configured to use TNSFormat similar to what is described in: Note 1393379.1 Can Oracle REST Data Services / Oracle Application Express be Configured to Run on a RAC Database using: db.connectionType tns

When using TNSFormat, ORDS fails with a 503 error and the message:

"The connection pool named: apex is a template pool and cannot be connected to directly"


When using the basic configuration (example below), ORDS runs successfully:

<entry key="db.servicename">my_service_name</entry>
