STATUS_CONNECTION_ACTIVE

The connection is active and cannot accept this operation

The operation expected an inactive connection but found one still active. Identify the outstanding user or session and complete the required disconnect before reinitializing the same connection object.

Some operations are valid only before connect or after disconnect. This status means the connection is still active, so the requested state transition or configuration change is not allowed.

What to inspect

  • Check whether the operation should run before connect.
  • Close or disconnect before changing connection-only-on-idle state.
  • Look for races between active I/O and reconfiguration.
