Information in this document applies to any platform.

Symptoms

In environment where listener home (including SCAN listener which resides in Grid Infrastructure/ASM home) and database home are owned by different OS user, ORA-12537 could happen when connecting through listener, when creating database through DBCA, or when installing database software and creating a database in runInstaller. Job Role Separation is a typical example as SCAN and local grid home listener is owned differently than database.

• Error detail
  

12537, 00000, "TNS:connection closed"
// *Cause: "End of file" condition has been reached; partner has disconnected.
// *Action: None needed; this is an information message.

Before the error is reported, connection could hang for a while, and a core file may also be generated.

• Screen output:

SEVERE: [FATAL] [INS-30502] No ASM disk group found.
CAUSE: There were no disk groups managed by the ASM instance +ASM1.

Cause

1. Listener owner (including SCAN listener) can not access oracle binary in database home:

As listener owner:



2. Oracle binary in database home has wrong permission:


The permission " -rwxr-x--x" is wrong as it's missing suid bit, oracle binary should have permission of 6751:


Note: If Job Role Separation is in place, the group will be <asmadmin>, otherwise it will be <oinstall>


3. File System for database home does not support setuid/suid or has nosetuid/nosuid set:

Solution

Solution is to make sure file system for database home has setuid/suid set, database binary($RDBMS_HOME/bin/oracle) has correct ownership and permission, and listener owner is able to access database oracle binary (as listener owner, "ls -l $RDBMS_HOME/bin/oracle" will tell)

If its Job Role Separation environment, please refer to the following document:
