Known Causes

3 known causes
⚠️
Conflicting Authentication
Providing both explicit user identification (`userid` or `username`) and an existing XS session ID (`xs_sessionid`) creates ambiguity in authentication.
⚠️
Incorrect Procedure Call
The `DBMS_SYS_SQL.PARSE_AS_USER` procedure is being called with an unsupported combination of parameters due to a misunderstanding of authentication methods.
⚠️
Application Logic Error
The application code attempts to establish a user context using both explicit credentials and an existing XS session, which is logically inconsistent.
