Configuring database SSL connection on Oracle 11.2.0.4

DavidFaizDec 19 2016 — edited Dec 21 2016

Hello,

I've used the following guide

https://oracle-base.com/articles/misc/configure-tcpip-with-ssl-and-tls-for-database-connections#client-wallet-and-certif…

to configure a SSL connection between the database server and client.

I've configured it for Oracle 12g and client without any issues, but when I attempt to configure for Oracle 11.2.0.4 server & 11.2.0.4.0 client.

But when I attempt to connect via SQLPLUS, I'm redirected to the TCP port (1521) instead of the TCPS port (which I've configured to 1522).

The connection attempt is recorded in the listener log as follows:

Mon Dec 19 16:44:58 2016

19-DEC-2016 16:44:58 * 12560

TNS-12560: TNS:protocol adapter error

TNS-00540: SSL protocol adapter failure

  64-bit Windows Error: 61: Unknown error

19-DEC-2016 16:44:58 * (CONNECT_DATA=(SERVICE_NAME=VDB)(CID=(PROGRAM=C:\oracle\ora112\client\bin\sqlplus.exe)(HOST=2012R2-SC-2)(USER=Administrator))) * (ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=tcp)(HOST=192.168.220.70)(PORT=50101)) * establish * NNVSDB * 0

The sqlnet.ora file:

WALLET_LOCATION =

   (SOURCE =

     (METHOD = FILE)

     (METHOD_DATA =

       (DIRECTORY = C:\oracle\wallet)

     )

   )

SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICES = (TCPS,NTS)

SSL_CLIENT_AUTHENTICATION = FALSE

SSL_CIPHER_SUITES = (SSL_RSA_WITH_AES_256_CBC_SHA, SSL_RSA_WITH_3DES_EDE_CBC_SHA)

The listener.ora file:

ADR_BASE_NNVSDB_LISTENER = C:\oracle

SSL_CLIENT_AUTHENTICATION = FALSE

WALLET_LOCATION =

  (SOURCE =

    (METHOD = FILE)

    (METHOD_DATA =

      (DIRECTORY = C:\oracle\wallet)

    )

  )

VDB_LISTENER =

  (DESCRIPTION_LIST =

    (DESCRIPTION =

  (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCPS)(HOST = 192.168.220.71)(PORT = 1522))

      (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 192.168.220.71)(PORT = 1521))

    )

  )

SID_LIST_VDB_LISTENER =

  (SID_LIST =

    (SID_DESC =

      (SID_NAME = VDB)

      (ORACLE_HOME = C:\oracle\ora112)

    )

  )

Please advise.
