ORA-12547: TNS:lost contact During ASM Instance Creation

Hi,

Using RHEL 4 & 10.2.0.4; I was trying to configure two node RAC Cluster. When i try configure ASM instance creation using DBCA I got the below error message.

ORA-12547: TNS:lost contact

Cluster Services & LISTENER working fine. But still not able to create ASM instance.

Work Around I:

1. Close your DBCA Session
2. Stop your cluster listener in your all the nodes
3. $ORACLE_HOME/bin

relink all

Once i relink my oracle home; it's should be work; but in my case continuously getting TNS Lost contact error message.

Work Around II:

When I try to type sqlplus in my terminal window i got some RPM package issues

-bash-3.00$ sqlplus

SQL*Plus: Release 10.2.0.4.0 - Production on Thu Feb 25 15:34:47 2010
