Tnsping Net Service Name fails with TNS-12537: TNS:connection closed or Sqlplus connection errors out with Ora-12537
Cause:
* In the Sqlnet.ora file the parameter TCP.VALIDNODE_CHECKING is enabled and TCP.INVITEDNODES is set to some specific IP's of the Client Machine.
* If trying to connect to the Apps database, by default, with Oracle Apps Installation the parameter TCP.VALIDNODE_CHECKING is enabled and TCP.INVITEDNODES is set to Server Machines IP or Hostname.
Solution
(i) You can disable these parameters in the Sqlnet.ora as following, then lsnrctl reload listener_name
#tcp.validnode_checking = yes
#tcp.invited_nodes=(xxx.domain.com)
or
(ii) add the client machines ip address in the TCP.INVITEDNODES list, then lsnrctl reload listener_name
