连接到 Amazon RDS Oracle 实例时如何处理“从读取调用中得到减一”错误

Question

I'm running Oracle 11GR2 on an Amazon RDS instance. occasionally I get an IO Error: Got minus one from a read call when making a call to DriverManager.getConnection(getUrl()) and I'm not sure why. Other applications work correctly.

To further confuse things, the error will correct itself on occasion (following next iteration of the program).

How should I approach a "Got minus one from a read call" error?

Full stack trace:

Other info:

• I thought it was a bad JDBC url, but it does work, sometimes for days on end before failing.
• Amazon RDS is a managed instance and configuration changes may not be possible
• I am using ojdbc6.jar for connectivity

Answer 1

The immediate cause of the problem is that the JDBC driver has attempted to read from a network Socket that has been closed by "the other end".

This could be due to a few things:

• If the remote server has been configured (eg in the "SQLNET.ora" file) to not accept connections from your IP.

• If the JDBC url is incorrect, you could be attempting to connect to something that isn't a database.

• If there are too many open connections to the database service, it could refuse new connections.

Given the symptoms, I think the "too many connections" scenario is the most likely. That suggests that your application is leaking connections; ie creating connections and then failing to (always) close them.

Answer 2

We faced the same issue and fixed it. Below is the reason and solution.

Problem

When the connection pool mechanism is used, the application server (in our case, it is JBOSS) creates connections according to the min-connection parameter. If you have 10 applications running, and each has a min-connection of 10, then a total of 100 sessions will be created in the database. Also, in every database, there is a max-session parameter, if your total number of connections crosses that border, then you will get Got minus one from a read call .

FYI: Use the query below to see your total number of sessions:

SELECT username, count(username) FROM v$session 
WHERE username IS NOT NULL group by username

Solution: With the help of our DBA, we increased that max-session parameter, so that all our application min-connection can accommodate.

Answer 3

I got this error message from using an oracle database in a docker despite the fact i had publish port to host option "-p 1521:1521". I was using jdbc url that was using ip address 127.0.0.1, i changed it to the host machine real ip address and everything worked then.

Answer 4

I would like to augment to Stephen C's answer, my case was on the first dot. So since we have DHCP to allocate IP addresses in the company, DHCP changed my machine's address without of course asking neither me nor Oracle. So out of the blue oracle refused to do anything and gave the minus one dreaded exception. So if you want to workaround this once and for ever, and since TCP.INVITED_NODES of SQLNET.ora file does not accept wildcards as stated here , you can add you machine's hostname instead of the IP address.

Answer 5

就我而言，我遇到了同样的异常，因为我在应用程序中配置的用户在数据库中不存在，创建用户并授予所需的权限解决了问题。

Answer 6

Cause

oracle binary permission issue ($ORACLE_HOME/bin/oracle)

[tst19c@exa033dbadm01 bin]$ $ORACLE_HOME/bin

[tst19c@exa033dbadm01 bin]$ ls -ltr oracle

-rwxr-s--x 1 tst19c asmadmin 446528768 May 3 14:28 oracle

Action Taken

[tst19c@exa033dbadm01 bin]$ chmod 6751 oracle

[tst19c@exa033dbadm01 bin]$ ls -ltr oracle

Now

-rwsr-s--x 1 tst19c asmadmin 446528768 May 3 14:28 oracle

[tst19c@exa033dbadm01 bin]$

Answer 7

I had a similar issue when running Oracle 21c XE image on Docker locally when I was trying to connect to it by localhost or 127.0.0.1 .

The fix was to log in into the container and modify sqlnet.ora in the following way:

echo "DISABLE_OOB=ON" >> /opt/oracle/oradata/dbconfig/XE/sqlnet.ora

and restart the container.
