Spring Boot Unable to determine jdbc url from datasource

Question

I'm building an application using spring boot and need to connect to Oracle DB via service, not sid.

These are datasource settings:

spring.datasource.driver-class-name=oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver
spring.datasource.url=jdbc:oracle:thin:@//hostname.companyname.corp:1500/servicename.companyname.com
spring.datasource.username=username
spring.datasource.password=password
spring.jpa.properties.hibernate.dialect=org.hibernate.dialect.OracleDialect
spring.jpa.properties.hibernate.default_schema=SCHEMA_NAME

I've already explored two other responses regarding tns connection: Connection to Oracle via TNS is not working and How to connect JDBC to tns oracle

But I'm hitting a different error:

org.springframework.jdbc.support.MetaDataAccessException: Could not get Connection for extracting meta data; nested exception is org.springframework.jdbc.CannotGetJdbcConnectionException: Could not get JDBC Connection; nested exception is java.sql.SQLException at org.springframework.jdbc.support.JdbcUtils.extractDatabaseMetaData(JdbcUtils.java:339)

If I switch to debug mode I get a little more details and exception happens right after:

2018-03-01 15:34:21.435 DEBUG 44920 --- [ main] o.s.jdbc.datasource.DataSourceUtils : Fetching JDBC Connection from DataSource 2018-03-01 15:34:21.446 DEBUG 44920 --- [

I'm using the same URL, service_name, and credentials to connect to DB in sqldeveloper and can confirm that that part is correct. I also tried options suggested in above links setting up

System.setProperty("oracle.net.tns_admin", "C:/ora12/client_1/network/admin");

and setting url @service_name with the same result

I'm completely lost on what can be the reason for it - incorrect syntax or anything else? Does anyone else have any suggestion what can cause it and what can be a possible solution?

Appreciate any suggestions or help on it!

Answer 1

Turned out the issue was caused by the size of the etc/issue file on the db server. Switching to older ojdbc6 driver is an optional soution or reducing the size of the etc/issue on linux box is the other one.
