CSTPACIN.COST_INV_TXN: (70): ORA-20100: File o0086078.tmp creation for FND_FILE failed. You will find more information on the cause of the error in request logSolution
In this case we need to check following 3 things

1) Check the UTL file parameter in DB side. Compare it with the APPLPTMP parameter on application side. Both this should match.

2) The file path mentioned in these 2 parameters should contain the space and permissions.

3) Check also the parameter APPLTMP

Please note that, following parameters should be in synch.

· APPLTMP
· APPLPTMP
· FORMS60_OUTPUT
· REPORTS60_TMP
· TMPDIR
· TMP

Set the same path correctly for all these variables in context file (APPL_TOP/admin/.xml) and run autoconfig. This will resolve the issue.

ORA-12547: TNS:lost contact

Some time we come across the issue when trying to connect with database from the application side using apps as a user. This basically requires the listener to be up to make connection with database. We get error similar to
Cannot login to sqlplus using following userid/passwd.

sqlplus apps/apps@dbname.

Gives error
ERROR:
ORA-12547: TNS:lost contact

Solution:
In this case first check if the database listener is up or now. If the listener is up then check the sqlnet.ora file present in ORACLE_HOME/network/admin also can be reached using the environment variable TNS_ADMIN. This file contains 2 parameters, which restricts login to the database from the other hosts.

tcp.validnode_checking = yes

tcp.invited_nodes=(hostname1, hostname2, … )

This will allow entry from hostname1, hostname2 servers only. So if these values are commented and listener is bounced then this will resolve the issue.
