Issue/Introduction:

When installing 12.9 Enterprise Management using an Oracle 12c database, connections cannot be made to the database. In the server.log, the following message appears.

WARN [org.jboss.resource.connectionmanager.JBossManagedConnectionPool] Throwable while attempting to get a new connection: null
org.jboss.resource.JBossResourceException: Could not create connection; - nested throwable: (java.sql.SQLException: ORA-28040: No matching authentication protocol)

Cause:

In Oracle 12c, the default value for the SQLNET.ALLOWED_LOGON_VERSION parameter has been updated to exclude older JDBC thin drivers. Since Enterprise Management uses older JDBC drivers, it cannot authenticate to Oracle 12c databases by default.

Environment:

Enterprise Management 12.9.x with an Oracle 12c database

Resolution:

On the Oracle database server, please set SQLNET.ALLOWED_LOGON_VERSION=8 in the oracle/network/admin/sqlnet.ora file.

Additional Information:

For more information about how to change SQLNET.ALLOWED_LOGON_VERSION, please contact Oracle.
