ORA-24774 failing OracleXAResource.start in JWS

Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

  • JWS configured to use the Tomcat JDBC Connection Pool with Narayana as transaction coordinator
  • Two Oracle pools are configured to permit different users to access the same database server/SID
  • In a single XA transaction with a connection from each of these pools, the second connection that is used fails with the error below
