Setup/Connection Issues

Setup/connection issues, such as an error or hang, can occur while you are trying to make a database connection with the data provider or are trying to configure the data provider.

Some common errors that are returned by the data provider if you are experiencing a setup/connection issue include:

• Specified data provider could not be loaded
• Data source name not found and no default data provider specified
• ORA-12203: Unable to connect to destination
• ORA-01017: invalid username/password; logon denied

In some cases, the solution to the problem might be as simple as starting the database or the listener, or changing the user name and password. Refer to our Knowledgebase for other possible solutions.
