Hi,
We are currently facing user login error mentioned in the Oracle client log below.
Topology: WebService (FWSM-DMZ)-> Oracle Database (FWSM-INSIDE)
The webservice fails to make full SQLNet connection to the database. But on subsequent attempt it goes through. I can recreate the error by doing 'clear local-host (on all source/destination IPs)' and doing user login again via web portal. SQLNet inspection was earlier disabled on FWSM. Later I enabled SQLNet inspection but still the same error. Most of the discussions related to ORA-12571 points to enabling fix-up/inspection of Oracle 1521 port.
I ran a capture on FWSM while below mentioned error occured, but I couldn't notice any non-SQLNet (other than 1521) communication initiated to the database. The error seems to be network related though.
Have you experienced this error ? What would you suggest ?
Oracle.DataAccess.Client.OracleException ORA-12571: TNS:packet writer failure at Datel.Eform.DataAccess.Portal.UserMgt.ValidateUserDA.ValidateUserLogin
