ORA-12518, TNS:listener could not hand off client connection

The solution to this question is to increase the number of processes :

1. Open command prompt 
2. sqlplus / as sysdba; //login  sysdba user
3. startup force;
4. show parameter processes;  // This shows 150(some default) processes allocated, then increase the count to 800
5. alter system set processes=800 scope=spfile;

As Tried and tested.
