With version 4.2.5 I attempted a fresh install with Oracle and i had to change SID to SERVICE and increase open cursors. I then got a working homepage. But Geonetwork didn't create the Metadatastatus table, i manually had to create that. The metadata was inserted into the database, but elasticsearch couldn't rebuild or index it. My elasticsearch setup was not faulty because once i changed jdbc.properties to look to my Postgres server instead, everything worked. Do/did you have the same issue ?

While trying to upgrade, I had the same problem regarding SID/SERVICE NAME, cursors and Users table not being able to handle empty password for user nobody
. TBH I was only testing database side of things, nothing elasticsearch related.
Today we have made progress with a fresh install of GN on Oracle, I will post findings and solutions to #7298.
Describe the bug When using Oracle DB, there are a number of SQL statements in GN upgrade scripts that won't run against the database.
To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:
Expected behavior Upgrade DB objects without errors.
Additional context Trying to upgrade GN on Oracle DB from version 3.8.2 to 4.4.3, had to fix a lot of minor issues related to Oracle DB.
One of the first errors when upgrading (or installing, for that matter) GN on Oracle is
ORA-01000: maximum open cursors exceeded
. This is caused by an unreasonly high (for me at least) settingjdbc.basic.maxOpenPreparedStatements=1200
in fileweb/src/main/webResources/WEB-INF/config-db/jdbc.properties
. On a default installation of Oracle DB, each session is limited to 300 open cursors.Another small issue is Oracle JDBC connection string. In GN, this connection string still uses database
SID
. Nowadays most connections to the database are made withservice name
. Connection string differs slightly:jdbc:oracle:thin:@${host}:${port}:${sid}
jdbc:oracle:thin:@${host}:${port}/${service_name}
I will make a pull request with all changes that I had to make in order to upgrade the database.
