Integrating ORDS 19.2 with EBS 12.2 using a pdb

Hi,

We upgraded our version of EBS to 12.2 on a 19c database and during the process a PDB was created using a lowercase name ("pdb1).   While installing ORDS, I enter the service name for access to the PDB but I get the following error:

2020-08-04T14:55:34.076Z WARNING ORA-65011: Pluggable database pdb1 does not exist.

It seems the installation expects the PDB name to be uppercase.  The DB initialization parameter _pdb_name_case_sensitive is set to TRUE (the default for this EBS version).

Has anyone had luck in connecting an ORDS installation to a 19c PDB in lowercase?  

Any help is appreciated

    Even creating a pdb in lowercase, it's still created as uppercase, and my listener service names are all lowercase...

    CREATE PLUGGABLE DATABASE "pdb3" FROM "PDB2"

    gives me -

    listener status -

    Service "pdb3" has 1 instance(s).

    So i'm not sure how to reproduce your scenario/problem...

    Thanks for your reply...

    What is the setting for parameter "_pdb_name_case_sensitive" in your database?    The default is FALSE but in EBS the value is set to TRUE.

    I was told that controls if a lowercase value can be used.

    ahhhh

    i won't be able to easily test this

    in the installer, what you you using, tns or the basic connect info?

    TNS might get you around the problem, but this could cause issues further down the line...

    if basic, did you try "dbname" vs dbname ?

    I did try both suggestions, the use of TNS and using quotes around the name but got the same results

    The SOLUTION is create a new service from pdb1 in lower case, and validate ords with new service name:

    SQL> exec DBMS_SERVICE.CREATE_SERVICE('pdb1lowcase','pdb1lowcase');

    SQL> exec DBMS_SERVICE.START_SERVICE('pdb1lowcase');

    SQL> SELECT NAME FROM V$ACTIVE_SERVICES;

    run now:

    $java -jar ords.war validate advance

    Introduce database servicename: pdb1lowcase

    and it works.
