Oracle DB Error ORA-09946 File name too long for buffer

The following is the cause of this error:

The buffer that was to be used to hold a file name was determined to be too short for the generated name. This will happen if the translated name for either a trace file or an audit file is longer than the maximum allowed, which on many ports is 256 characters.

Action you can take to resolve this issue: Use a shorter file name.
