Users receiving "unable to launch a dedicated server process. ora-12500 in an Oracle Apps 11i database. Processes were 298 with processes in init.ora of 400. Stopped apache and restarted it and processes decreased. Now connect with no problem. Why are we getting the error when have not reached max processes. Is there a listener limit of some sort.
oracle.exe process was 1.4 G per task manager - well under the 2 G
limit.
Swap space is set to max of 4 G
commit charge peak is 2.4 G
commit charge limit is 5.8 G
We should be well under the limits
