Resolving pingdb generated ORA-00942 error message when running IBM Maximo Application Suite on Amazon RDS Oracle

Troubleshooting


Problem

Users of IBM Maximo Application Suite might see an error when they run Maximo Application Suite on Amazon Relational Database Service (RDS) Oracle system.

The error can be replicated using the following process:

1. Install IBM Maximo Application Suite on an Amazon RDS Oracle system.

2. Open any Internet browser and enter the following URL:

<mas servername>/maximo/api/members/thisserver/pingdb

Note: In the URL, <mas servername> is the server address that you are using.

The MAS logs display the following error:

ping db connection error -- ORA-00942: table or view does not exist

Symptom

When you check Maximo Application Suite logs by using the RedHad OpenShift web console, the pingDB call generates a series of log messages like the following:
