Timeout Problem with Two-Way SSL when Retreiving BLOBs Using getBlob().getBytes() (Doc ID 734328.1)

Last updated on OCTOBER 10, 2022

Applies to:

Advanced Networking Option - Version 10.2.0.4.0 and later
Information in this document applies to any platform.
This problem can occur on any platform.

Symptoms

With 2-way SSL enabled  for communication between the client library (Oracle Thin JDBC driver) and Oracle server, after upgrading your environment to Oracle 10.2.0.4.0 you start to experience non-deterministic errors while retrieving blob bodies from the database. A typical access pattern is to perform a query that brings back one or more blob columns as well as a number of other fields. You then access the contents via getBlob().getBytes(). At this point you intermittently get a disconnect message.

On the client, you see:


java.sql.SQLException: Io exception: Connection reset
at oracle.jdbc.driver.DatabaseError.throwSqlException(DatabaseError.java:112)
at oracle.jdbc.driver.DatabaseError.throwSqlException(DatabaseError.java:146)
at oracle.jdbc.driver.DatabaseError.throwSqlException(DatabaseError.java:255)
at oracle.jdbc.driver.T4CConnection.length(T4CConnection.java:1782)
at oracle.sql.BLOB.length(BLOB.java:155)

Server side trace file has the following errors:

Changes

It is suspected but not confirmed that this may have something to do with the support for Out Of band Breaks in the new JDBC Thin drivers as explained in <>
