Error description

  • 1. Following patching the development environment to WebSphere
    8.5.5.12, was testing new troubleshooting feature using custom
    property
    JDBCTimingThreshold as discussed here:  https://www.ibm.
    com/support/knowledgecenter/en/SSAW57_8.5.5/com.ibm.websphere.nd
    .iseries.doc/ae/rtrb_jdbclong.html
    
    2.  When setting the property as a persistent setting to Oracle
    data sources, receive a warning: DSRA8020E: Warning: The
    property 'JDBCTimingThreshold' does not exist on the DataSource
    class oracle.jdbc.pool.OracleConnectionPoolDataSource.
    
    3.  Also within one application, using the property results in
    application query errors due to org.apache.openjpa.persistence.
    ArgumentException which is caused by java.util.
    UnknownFormatConversionException: Conversion = '''.
