Spring Batch ORA-08177: can't serialize access for this transaction when running single job, SERIALIZED isolation level

Question

I am getting this exception with SERIALIZED isolation level on JobRepository in Spring Batch:

org.springframework.dao.CannotSerializeTransactionException: Pr         


        

Answer 1

When using serialized transactions you need to increase the initrans parameter on the table per the Oracle Docs. To handle serialized transactions this needs to be 3 or more.

alter table BATCH_.... INITRANS 3
