DBCA install - ORA-12547: TNS:lost contact

829950Aug 10 2011 — edited Aug 10 2011
Hi,
I have successfully installed a 11GR2 database on a Linux machine. With the following details.
Unix User= oracle
ORACLE_SID=PrimaryDB
ORACLE_HOME=/u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/db_1

I am now trying to install a second 11GR2 database on the same Linux box. I have run the installer again and I have successfully installed the software with the below details.
Unix User= orarman
ORACLE_HOME=/u02/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/db_1

When I try to run DBCA as the orarman user I get the following error.

ORA-12547: TNS:lost contact

I have looked around and people have solved this by installing the libaio package. I already have this installed. I am thinking maybe there could be a conflict with the existing database already installed on the server.

Any help on this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Rgs,
Rob
