ORA-07265: sppst: semop error, unable to increment semaphore.
Cause: Semop system call returned an error. Semaphore set may not exist.
Action: Check errno. Semaphore ID is returned in sercose[0]. Check semaphore set existence. A possible cause for this error is that a “shutdown abort” was done while this process was running.
ORA-07265: sppst: semop error, unable to increment semaphore
ORA-07265 is thrown when the shadow process slave process tries to update the semaphore and is unable to do so.
This error occurs when there is an unexpected crash or shutdown of the database server, or when the system parameters is changed to a value that is not supported.
1、 Ensure that the system parameters file (SPFILE or PFILE) being used is the correct one.
2、 Attempt to recreate the SPFILE or PFILE.
3、 Perform an OS level check on the semaphore values and adjust if necessary.
4、 Consider increasing the SHADOW_MAX_CONNECTions parameter.
5、 Increase the SEMMSL, SEMMNS, SEMOPM, and SEMMNI OS parameters, if necessary.
6、 Stop and restart the database instance. This should reset the semaphore values and make the application work.
