Answer/Solution:

• Ensure your "configuration.xml" has the proper "ServerTrace" stanza and entries (a sample is attached)
  
• Now, try the following steps to see if it resolves the issue:
  1. Stop the partition
  2. Go to ${STrace}/ext/strace/audit directory, remove rejectClasses directory if exists
  3. Edit the "extensions.table" file in the same directory.
     • find the "lookAtClasses" entry in [libraryName="jdbc" session]if exists, add "#com/borland/datastore/driver/LDriverResult" to it
     • if not exist, add entries for lookAtClasses (please attached copy for your reference)
  4. Go to ${BES}/var/domains/base/configurations//mos/standard/adm/servertrace/ directory, edit the file optimizeit.xml: change the ignoreTraining="false" to ignoreTraining="true"
  5. Restart the partition.
