One extract got abended and wasn't able to start in Oracle Goldengate Version 12.2.0.1.160517 23194417_FBO. The redologs were present but extract was still abended and threw following error in the report file.

Error:

Solution:




The solution for this error is to unregister, register and then start the extract as follows:
