Oracle 11GR2 SCAN, ORA-12502: TNS:listener received no CONNECT_DATA from client

While local_listener parameter of RAC database was something like this:

(DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS_LIST=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)(HOST=node-vip)(PORT=1521))))

connecting to database using SCAN listener gave following error (after a short period of hang time)

ORA-12502: TNS:listener received no CONNECT_DATA from client

After setting local_listener as:

(DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS_LIST=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)(HOST=node-vip.mycompany.com)(PORT=1521))))

problem resolved...

Hi Saleem,
If this method did not help you then you should look further at support.oracle.com. Most probably problem occurs because of a sqlnet.ora/ tnsnames.ora/ local-remote listener configuration/ scan configuration parameter. Or maybe because of network connectivity problems.
