Oracle JDBC "listener does not currently know of SID given in connect descriptor"

Problem

If you are using an Oracle database with a Servicename and you chose the option SID in the installation, the error "listener does not currently know of SID given in connect descriptor" appears at the start of LUY.

Solution

  1. Open the luy-db.properties

  2. Search for the property "database.url" within this file

  3. Change the ":" before the service name (last part of the url) to "/", e.g.

    1. "database.url=jdbc:oracle:DOMAIN:PORT:SERVICENAME" to "database.url=jdbc:oracle:DOMAIN:PORT/SERVICENAME"

  4. Restart your Tomcat
