The root LoggedException was: Error setting oracle NLS Date format

Ok baby! you are receiving NLS Format error in ETPM or CC&B logs? and you want to know whats going on with your Application Server? ok ok... here we go!

ORACLE Enterprise Taxation and Policy Management has bug i.e. once it lost connection to database server, unable to reset it seemingly less, and during this time when it tries to recover the connection between Application Server & Database server, it start giving HTTP-500 error on user's browser.


As you will continue to receive NLS Format error in logs, while it has nothing directly related to connectivity issue you will remain confuse, in our case we had the same issue, but later ORACLE informed us that they are working on this bug. I hope it will be fixed pretty soon!


in our case the connect drop was caused due to our CISCO PIX/Firewall server, it had some rules which were causing connection drop between Application Server & Database server.


After eliminating this connection drop issue, we were able to work smoothly and waiting for ORACLE to produce bug fix!


cheers

no subject - Redhat

it is amazing to know, how pathetic could be a company like Redhat, i received an email today regarding RHCE certification, the two points really made me write this blog post are,

1. email without subject.

2. the paragraph where the made an excuse of verification system error!

here we go:

====================================

Hello Nayyar Ahmad:

Red Hat has announced general availability of Red Hat Enterprise
Linux 6. Your Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 Red Hat Certified
Engineer (RHCE) certification will be considered non-current
on January 9, 2011 per the re-certification policy. It will
still be possible to verify your certification at

https://www.redhat.com/training/certification/verify

Unfortunately, there is a minor bug in the page such that your
certification will report "Current until " instead of
simply "Current". This issue will be resolved by the end of
the month.

During the time between now and January 9, 2011 you will remain
eligible to take Red Hat Certificate of Expertise Exams.
In order to remain eligible after that date you will need
to re-certify. Discounts are available in most areas for
re-certifying.

If you are a Red Hat Certified Architect (RHCA), Red Hat
Certified Security Specialist (RHCSS), or Red Hat Certified
Datacenter Specialist (RHCDS), you will need to re-certify
to retain those titles after January 9. You will retain all
Certificates of Expertise you have earned in either case.
If you choose to re-certify, we will apply previously-earned
Certificates of Expertise to your new RHCE and your status as
an RHCA, RHCSS or RHCDS will be restored.

For RHCEs earned under Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 and later,
a new re-certification policy will apply. This new policy only
applies to new certifications and will provide more options
for remaining current. Read more at

http://www.redhat.com/training/policy/recert.html

Please direct questions or comments to the certification team at

https://www.redhat.com/training/certification/comments.html

Best wishes!
Red Hat Certification
