Error description
1. Following patching the development environment to WebSphere 8.5.5.12, was testing new troubleshooting feature using custom property JDBCTimingThreshold as discussed here: https://www.ibm. com/support/knowledgecenter/en/SSAW57_8.5.5/com.ibm.websphere.nd .iseries.doc/ae/rtrb_jdbclong.html 2. When setting the property as a persistent setting to Oracle data sources, receive a warning: DSRA8020E: Warning: The property 'JDBCTimingThreshold' does not exist on the DataSource class oracle.jdbc.pool.OracleConnectionPoolDataSource. 3. Also within one application, using the property results in application query errors due to org.apache.openjpa.persistence. ArgumentException which is caused by java.util. UnknownFormatConversionException: Conversion = '''. [9/29/17 10:45:36:084 CDT] 000000b7 WSRdbManagedC 3 JDBCTiming threadTime: 49095168 [9/29/17 10:45:36:084 CDT] 000000b7 WSJdbcPrepare < executeQuery Exit RuntimeException java.util.UnknownFormatConversionException: Conversion = ''' at java.util.Formatter.checkText(Formatter.java:2559) at java.util.Formatter.parse(Formatter.java:2545) at java.util.Formatter.format(Formatter.java:2481) at java.util.Formatter.format(Formatter.java:2435) at java.lang.String.format(String.java:2124) at com.ibm.ws.rsadapter.spi.WSRdbManagedConnectionImpl.jdbcTiming(W SRdbMana gedConnectionImpl.java:6279) at com.ibm.ws.rsadapter.jdbc.WSJdbcPreparedStatement.executeQuery(W SJdbcPre paredStatement.java:744) at org.apache.openjpa.lib.jdbc.DelegatingPreparedStatement.executeQ uery(Del egatingPreparedStatement.java:270) ... 4. Clearing the property removes this application error.
