Answer choices
Why each option matters
Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.
Correct answer & explanation
✓
The database connection is not properly established, or the session is in a bad state.
The error about a SQL statement not being parsed before execution typically indicates a problem with the database connection or session state, which aligns with option B. Option A (misconfigured application server) would not directly cause this specific error. Option C (network connectivity) would manifest as timeout or connection failure, not a parsing error. Option D (out of memory) would cause different errors like ORA-04031. Therefore, the most likely cause is that the database connection is not properly established or the session is in a bad state.
Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✗
The SAP application server is misconfigured.
Why it's wrong here
The error is from the application server but indicates a database issue.
- ✓
The database connection is not properly established, or the session is in a bad state.
Why this is correct
The error 'no statement parsed' typically occurs when a SQL statement is executed without a valid parse call, often due to connection issues.
- ✗
There is a network connectivity issue between the application server and the database.
Why it's wrong here
Network issues would typically cause timeout or connection refused errors.
- ✗
The Oracle database is out of memory.
Why it's wrong here
Out of memory errors are different, e.g., ORA-04031.
