Troubleshooting


Problem

What do the entries in the PLT_DB_POOL table signify in case of a single schema installation?

Symptom

The PLT_DB_POOL table contains the database schema credentials of the user specified during installation. This is true in case of a single-schema installation as well.
Sometimes, the application references the PLT_DB_POOL table for the database user credentials, instead of the jdbc.properties or customer_overrides.properties file (if applicable).
There could be a scenario, in which the user points the application to a different database user after installation through the customer_overrides.properties or modifying the sandbox.cfg file.
Error Message
If the DB user credentials in the PLT_DB_POOL table are incorrect, or the user does not exist then the application will hang trying to connect to the database.

Resolving The Problem

To avoid such performance issues, ensure that in case of a single schema installation, the database user credentials specified in the properties files and the PLT_DB_POOL table match.
In case of a single schema installation instance, the database user credentials as mentioned in the properties file and those in the PLT_DB_POOL table should be the same. One should synchronize them, if they do not match.
