The Network Adapter could not establish the connection
I have sqldeveloper 3.1.06. DB 11.2.0.3 running on 64bit RedHat 2 node cluster using scan listener with 3 ips.
I have a few scan listeners I am trying to connect to. That I can connect to using the jdbc url using sqlplus.
Proof of connection
C:\Documents and Settings\msouthcott>sqlplus bp_ls/carb0n@(DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)(HOST=vc-orcltrx-scan.something.com)(PORT=1521))(CONNECT_DATA=(SERVER=DEDICATED)(SERVICE_NAME=vcqa.something.com)))

End Proof
Yet sqldeveloper never connects to this jdbc or tnsnames connection. Always reports The Network Adapter could not establish the connection.
Before anyone starts asking me to ping etc. I can connect I can connect every time without fail using sqlplus. nslookup returns 3 ips all ips are working and are pingable. All other apps (mostly Linux) work fine. It is just this sqldeveloper that doesn't. Even pl/sql developer works fine with this connection.
Every time I test the connection with sqldeveloper I get the same result.
Anyone else have this issue? Any idea what is causing this?
