Resolution

In 11.6 targettype 12 has been deprecated.

1.  To find out if you are running into this issue, run the following sql query as the Protect user: 

select scanassignmentid, isdeleted from scanassignment where targettype = 12;

If the above query returns rows and the isdeleted=0, then run the sql statement in step 2.

2.   Run as the Protect user:

UPDATE SCANASSIGNMENT
SET ISDELETED = 1
where targettype = 12;

COMMIT;

3.  Discover Targets page should be accessible.
