Release 23.9 - October 2025

Bug 38493323: Active-Active - Pipeline failed at Prepare database objects for extraction on target

Pipeline fails while preparing database objects for extraction on target for schema/table mapping.

Workaround

Oracle recommends that you create the user from the GoldenGate Studio application itself, instead of assigning an externally created user.

Bug 38477069: Active-Active - Default conflict resolution type needs to be shown in the GoldenGate Studio user interface

The default conflict resolution type is not displayed in the GoldenGate Studio user interface.

Workaround

None.

Bug 38475961 - Delete all deployments doesn't work when we select them using the select all button

When all the deployments are selected together using the check box left to the headings, the Delete option doesn't work.

Workaround

Select each deployment individually and delete all at once.

Bug 38461500 - Mapping tab in the user interface doesn't reflect the custom Mapping Rules selected in Mapping Rules tab

The mapping rules are not reflected in the Mapping page of the GoldenGate Studio user interface.

Workaround

None.

Bug 38446349 - The status of some steps is not updated in the user interface even though API reflects it properly

Status of certain steps is incorrectly displayed in the user interface while the API reflects the correct status.

Workaround

None.

Bug 38442543 - Certain special characters are not supported in SCHEMA or table name

If special characters are used in SCHEMA or table name then you will not able to edit or save the pipeline.

Workaround

Use asterisk (*) instead of using special characters when saving the mapping.

Bug 38425814 - Exclude disappears from Mapping rules if Include *.* is deleted

If the Include *.* option is deleted from the Mapping Rules table in the Pipeline Configuration Mapping Rules tab, the user interface deletes the Exclude option instead of the Include *.* option from the user interface.

Workaround

Delete *.* mapping first to avoid this issue.

Bug 38415742 - Active-Active: Could not create pipeline with connection having period in the service name

If an Active-Active pipeline is created with a period in the service name, the pipeline creation fails.

Workaround

None.

Bug 38389703 - When re-running a pipeline, the Extract and Replicat processes are shown stopped though they are actually running in Oracle GoldenGate deployment

After a pipeline is restarted, the Extract and Replicat processes are shown in stopped state although they are running in the Oracle GoldenGate deployment.

Workaround

None.

Bug 38384257 - Even after stopping a job , we see stop job option

Stop button is enabled in the GoldenGate Studio user interface even though the job is initializing and the Extract/Replicat processes are not running.

Workaround

None.

Bug 38314733 - User interface inconsistent with backend status while monitoring Pipelines

Pipeline page in the user interface gets stuck sometimes.

Workaround

None.

Bug 38285621 - GoldenGate Studio pipeline configuration page is stuck when source or target Autonomous Database is not reachable

When there are a lot of connections to an Autonomous Database along with multiple pipelines, GoldenGate Studio keeps on polling the jobs status APIs even when they aren't responding. This creates slowness and the system may get stuck.

Workaround

Ensure that the Autonomous Database is running so that the pipeline configuration page shows valid data.

Bug 35927051 - Incorrect Mapping Rules for a specific mapping pattern

Mapping rules are not saved correctly when a specific mapping pattern is selected in the Mapping Rules page.

Workaround

None.

Schema Mapping and Configuration

When you finish creating a pipeline by clicking on the "Save & Configure" button, you are shown the Mappings section, where all the source's schemas are listed and they all come preselected. If you use accessibility keys such as tab, shift, return, then you can't select or deselect any of the mapping options, nor display all schemas/tables for the drop down list.

Workaround

Use the mouse instead of using the accessibility keys.

Database Version Mismatch

The Initial Load step may fail if the source database version is higher than the target database version causing errors similar to the following:

  • ORA-39059: Dump file set is incomplete.

  • ORA-39246: Cannot locate master table within provided dump files.

Workaround

Before initiating replication, ensure that the target database is upgraded to at least the same version as the source database.
