Cannot connect using SQL*Plus to a remote database from a web server

frankntxFeb 26 2016 — edited Mar 1 2016

RHEL 6.5

Oracle DB 11gR2

==============

When trying to connect using SQL*Plus to a remote database from a web server, I get

ERROR:

ORA-21561: OID generation failed

I have seen references to the issue being caused by the /etc/hosts file not being setup correctly. However, this does not correct the issue after following the advice to change the /etc/host file.

I can tnsping from the webserver to the database server w/o issues.

Please advise.
