Both databases are on remote server and I can get connected to and query on them using TOAD.
When connecting to database configured with OraClient11g_Home1 from Python on my desktop the connection is established successfully. However, trying to connect to database which is using OraClient12Home1 results into ORA-12170 error,i.e. TNS: Connect timeout occurred. Below are configurations.
Edited to contain more information:
I connect to the database using a remote desktop connection. The code is written to automate part of my testing activities by querying two databases and checking whether a single command has been successful on multiple systems(e.g. Ericsson and Huawei)
Output of one query is the input to another one (I can get output from the 11g DB and have previously wrote scripts for it, but this is the first time we're getting connected to the DB on Ora12 using python. I can access both DBs using TOAD on the remote desktop or connect and query 11g DB using python on my desktop but Ora12 throws time out for the same code.
the connection part of the code and how they are queried is as below:
#Get chrono number, action code and status from provisioning table
ip = '********'
port = *****
service_name = '*****'
dsn = cx_Oracle.makedsn(ip, port, service_name)
connection = cx_Oracle.connect("********","********",dsn)
cursor = connection.cursor()
totalChronoList = list()
myQuery=list()
inputData = list()
myQuery = ("select CHRONO_NUM_N, ACTION_CODE_V, STATUS_V from gsm_subs_provisioning where ACTION_DT_DT > SYSDATE - 2 order by ACTION_DT_DT desc")
cursor.execute(myQuery)
inputData.append(cursor.fetchall())

ORA-12170: TNS:Connect timeout occurred means you can't access the host and/or port of the DB. I bet in your case it is some restriction on firewalls (most reason, but may be others). First of all try to check is the port accessible. Easiest way - run powershell statement:
Test-NetConnection <host-or-ip> -port <port>
Then go with findings to sysadmin/dba.
Update: As you connect to DB using easy access method (ip, port, service name), you don’t have to care about tnsnames.ora.
In your 12c client we can see that no tnsnames.ora file is found.
Copy this file from the 11g client directory.
Well, after looking for many solutions. I came here now.
I am setting up WHM/cPanel for hosting website. Everything was going smooth but I am stuck on FTP connection (Server sent passive reply with unroutable address. Using server address instead.)
Server Details:
CentOS Linux release 7.2.1511 (Core)
WHM/cPanel Version 11.58.0.13
FTP Server: PureFTPD
Acutal error while connecting
To fix this issue and get FTP working you need to open up more numbered ports so FTP can connect. I assume you are using CSF.
Login to WHM then go to CSF >> Firewall Configuration >>
allow TCP_In 30000:50000 and TCP_Out 30000:50000
Once you made the changes Restart the firewall
Now you need to make changes in FTP config file to use these ports, you will find this file to this location /etc/pure-ftpd.conf
Now you will see a line as follows and you will need to uncomment it
# Port range for passive connections replies. - for firewalling.
PassivePortRange 30000 50000
Restart FTP Service and should work.
When I run the sql developer and set the all data,click the connect but i get this error:
Status : Failure -Test failed: IO Error: Got minus one from a read call
I am beginner in Oracle. How can I solve that error?
I use 64-bit Windows7 and oracle 12c.
In my case the error is connected to a problem about the client's (SQL Developer) ojdbc8 driver and the Oracle 19.3 docker container. The solution for me was to set a system property on the client -- you can do it within the JDBC connection string):
jdbc:oracle:thin:#tcp://host:port/service?oracle.net.disableOob=true
This is the thread that lead me to the answer.
The cause of the error is described here:
https://support.oracle.com/epmos/faces/DocumentDisplay?_afrLoop=357910144923387
You can also solve this problem by dissabling OOB on server side in the sqlnet.ora:
DISABLE_OOB=ON
Another workaround is to use the ojdbc7 driver.
Hope this helps some of us.
From your inputs in the dialog, you are using port 5500. That port is what is used for EM Express. It answers to HTTPs traffic only. So in this case the -1 error message means the protocol negotiation failed. SQLDEV is trying to talk SQL*NET to something listening for HTTPs.
The port you are looking for is 1521 if it wasn't altered. If it was check the $ORACLE_HOME/network/admin/listener.ora for the proper port number.
You need set "tcp.validnode_checking = no" or comment this parameter in sqlnet.ora file then restart listener on db server and test again.
Try it.
I got the same issue but following steps worked for me, it seems Gaurav also has shared it already:
1.Go to the folder where you have installed the database (Like: F:\app)
2.Here you will be able to see many folders, go to product\11.2.0("your databse version")\dbhome_1\NETWORK\ADMIN
3.find listener.ora file and open as text file
4.Check for the port number in that file
5.Now provide that port number while doing connection in sql developer.
Seems you have enabled ACL on the listener.
You can follow these steps to avoid the error:
1. Go to directory $ORACLE_HOME/network/admin
2. Modify sqlnet.ora file with following parameter:
tcp.validnode_checking = no
3. If you don't want to disable this, you can put the machine names as follows:
tcp.invited_nodes=(machine1, machine2)
3. Bounce the listener.
Hope that helps
Ensure the DB is up and running and you can connect locally AS SYSDBA to the database using Oracle binaries owner (usually oracle:oinstall Unix / Linux user). If it does not work, probably you encounter a different problem.
Check privileges of an Oracle file on Unix / Linux host where database is running:
cd $ORACLE_HOME/bin
ls -ltr oracle
-rwxr-xr-x 1 oracle oinstall 136803483 Mar 16 20:32 oracle
Change permissions as below:
chmod 6751 oracle
ls -ltr oracle
-rwsr-s--x 1 oracle oinstall 136803483 Mar 16 20:32 oracle
Most of the answers out there for this problem point to using the wrong PORT number in your connection options, or similar. In my case, after a couple hours of searching, the reason showed to be something else.
Mind which user you are using when starting Oracle listener. You should do it with the oracle user, not as root. Otherwise you end up with listener files being created as e.g. user deamon group root instead of user oracle group dba. This in turn leads to:
TNS-12555: TNS:permission denied
TNS-12560: TNS:protocol adapter error
TNS-00525: Insufficient privilege for operation
Linux Error: 1: Operation not permitted
To check whether this is the case, go to
/var/tmp/.oracle
and list all files (ls -la). If you find out some of the s#* files being created by a root-group user, stop the listener (lsnrctl stop), delete the above files as root and restart the listener as oracle user.
Unfortunately sqldeveloper doesn't show the full stack-trace when reading "Got minus one from a read call". I could find the problem thanks to switching to SQL-Squirrel.
In my case, I was given wrong host and port. I typed "tnsping yourServiceName" in command line in window 10. It returns a different host and port, then I used the correct one in sql developer and it worked.
In my case, it happened when I was using Docker with Oracle 19C.
The workaround is to find the listener.ora file, change 'PORT' and restart the container, ORACLE DB, listener.
It is presumed to be an error that occurred when the host tried to access TCP because it was already LISENT (HOST) by another process.
(When accessing Docker, consider that in most cases, you are accessing localhost.)
I changed the port to 1523, and all the problems were solved.
Try to do what the link , or check listener directory permission, or use command /dbhome/bin/relink all
Try
Connection name: HR_ORCL
Username: HR ,
Password: hr ,
Connection type : local,
Role: SYSDBA
Click on connect.
It will work.
Actually, It is not database specific issue. it is related to port value generated by database during your installation. To overcome on this issue, please follow below.
Go to the folder where you have installed the database (Like: F:\app)
Here you will be able to see many folders, go to product\11.2.0("your databse version")\dbhome_1\NETWORK\ADMIN
find listener.ora file and open as text file
Check for the port number in that file
Now provide that port number while doing connection in sql developer.
Hope it will resolve your issue.
I am new to Oracle DB and have created a new Oracle 12c database. I am creating a new connection through SQLDeveloper and where can I get the connection details? HostName? Port? SID?
I tried connecting using default details given in documentation but got the below error
Test failed: Listener refused the connection with the following error:
ORA-12505, TNS:listener does not currently know of SID given in connect descriptor>
You really need to give more info if you need help :)
What Server are you using? Linux? Windows?
Post your oratab file (/etc/oratab)
Post your TNS file ($ORACLE_HOME/network/admin/tnsnames.ora)
Post your Listener file ($ORACLE_HOME/network/admin/listener.ora)
Assuming you're using Linux :D
You need to look at the file "/etc/oratab" if you're on Linux.
This will contain your SID.
Your TNS (located in $ORACLE_HOME/network/admin/) should contain the TNS Entry with SID as per your oratab file.
This is an example entry you will find in the oratab file:
orcl:/opt/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1:Y
The let hand side "orcl" is your SID, and you will use this for your SID in the Oracle TNS.
If you find that your TNS is configured correctly, then the error message you provided may also indicate that your Database was not registered to the Listener.
You may connect to the sql database as follows:
Set your Oracle Environment
$ . oraenv
Prompts for SID: Enter the value "orcl" (if this is your SID?)
now login:
$ sqlplus / as sysdba
This will log you into oracle as a sysdba.
Execute the follwing:
SQL> Alter System Register;
You should notice a confirmation message that the system is altered.
now exit SQLplus, and try again
SQL> exit
On Windows ISTR, to get the SID, look at the running processes and you should see something called "oracleXXX.exe" or similar. The XXX will be your SID.
You should also see a "TNS" or "Listener" process, probably with the same "XXX".
To get the port number, (usually 1521-1526), find the folder where Oracle was installed to "the "Oracle Home") and in there go to the "network\admin" folder. You should see a "listener.ora" file in there, and if you view this is notepad you should be able to figure out what the port is set to.
This file should also tell you what host/network address the listener is attaching to - you use this IP as the "Hostname" in you connection. Sometimes (again I'm a bit cloudy with Oracle on Windows) the listener.ora might be named listnereXXX.ora, with XXX matching the value you will have seen in SID the checks above.
Obviously if you are new to Oracle, do not amend these files.
If you have netstat/wireshark or similar you can see what the port is attached to the TNS/Listener process.
If you have installed it on same machine on which you are running sql-developer then
host: 127.0.0.1
port: 1521
username and password same as you put while installing oracle datatabse.
keep sid blank
Could someone help take a look this weird problem? I'm still not able to connect remotely to my Postgresql.
My Steps:
Download and install the latest Postgresql to my local machine
Setup postgresql
Create a DB
Modify "pg_hba", add row "host all all 0.0.0.0/0 md5"
Modify "postgresql.conf", make sure "listen_addresses = '*'"
Restart postgresql service
Open local PgAdmin, and connect to DB <-- Success!
From Remote desktop, do the same thing as #7 <-- Failed!
Error Message:
"Server doesn't listen"
"Could not connect to server......accepting TCP/IP connections on port 5432?"
I found "TCP 0.0.0.0:5432 Listening" when I type "netstat -a"
I checked firewall, it's not enabled
......
Can someone please help? Does anyone encounter this situation?
P.S, my os is Winserver 2008
Thanks in advance~
If you're connecting to the local machine via RDP then you'll be connecting via localhost and no firewall or LAN/WAN/NAT settings should affect pgadmin.
When you edit the pg_hba and postgresql.conf files Server 2008 doesn't usually let you edit them directly where they are. I usually copy them out edit them and then paste them back in. You'll need to authorise the paste from an Admin account.
I usually have a separate rule in "pg_hba" with "host all all 127.0.0.1/32 md5" for local connections. Also ensure when you restart the service that it is running under the user "postgres" and not as some other user.
