ORA-12547 Oracle 12 Standard Edition SE2 Redhat Linux 7

Jacques R. KilchoerJul 7 2016 — edited Jul 14 2016

Oracle 12 Standard Edition SE2 12.1.0.2.0 on Redhat Linux 7.2

I have created an Oracle single-instance non-container database.(No multitenant architecture)

as user oracle (software installatio owner) I can connect with either ORACLE_SID or TWO_TASK.

as another user (Linux user myuser) I can only connect with TWO_TASK, when I try with ORACLE_SID I geet ORA-12547.

a) Why is that?

b) How do I view the sqlnet.log that was created using adrci? adrci "show incidient" and "show problem" show 0 incidents/problems

See commands below

I see the service running:

ps -ef | grep pmon

oracle   32220     1  0 Jun27 ?        00:01:02 ora_pmon_mydb

as Linux user mylinuxuser - ORA-12547 with ORACLE_SID but not with TWO_TASK

$ unset ORACLE_SID

$ export TWO_TASK=mydb

$ sqlplus myoracleuser
