 From oerr:

oerr ora 12224
12224, 00000, "TNS:no listener"
// *Cause: The connection request could not be completed because the listener

// is not running.
// *Action: Ensure that the supplied destination address matches one of
// the addresses used by the listener - compare the TNSNAMES.ORA entry with
// the appropriate LISTENER.ORA file (or TNSNAV.ORA if the connection is to
// go by way of an Interchange). Start the listener on the remote machine.
