ORA-46693: The WALLET_ROOT location is missing or invalid.

While configuring the Oracle TDE encryption with wallet getting the following error:

Error:

SQL> ALTER SYSTEM SET TDE_CONFIGURATION="KEYSTORE_CONFIGURATION=FILE" SCOPE=BOTH;
ALTER SYSTEM SET TDE_CONFIGURATION="KEYSTORE_CONFIGURATION=FILE" SCOPE=BOTH
*
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-32017: failure in updating SPFILE
ORA-46693: The WALLET_ROOT location is missing or invalid.

Solution:

Before setting this parameter we need to set the WALLET_ROOT and restart the database for taking this WALLET_ROOT Parameter in effects.

SQL> ALTER SYSTEM SET WALLET_ROOT='E:\ORACLE\wallets\orcl' SCOPE=SPFILE;

System altered.


SQL> ALTER SYSTEM SET TDE_CONFIGURATION="KEYSTORE_CONFIGURATION=FILE" SCOPE=BOTH;
ALTER SYSTEM SET TDE_CONFIGURATION="KEYSTORE_CONFIGURATION=FILE" SCOPE=BOTH
