Intermittent TNS-12500 Errors on Microsoft Windows NT
1. Increase the amount of memory available to the system
either by removing unnecessary processes or increasing
the amount of physical memory.
2. Increasing the amount of swap space will also
temporarily help relieve the symptoms.
3. Disable OTRACE. OTRACE is a tracing feature that can
cause many problems. OTRACE is enabled by default.
To disable OTRACE:
a. Stop the Oracle database.
b. Go to the orant/otrace/admin directory.
c. Delete all files with a .dat extension.
d. Restart the Oracle database.
4. The TNS-12500 can be a result of the 'processes'
parameter in the init<sid>.ora file being too

'ORA-12500: TNS: Listener failed to start a dedicated server process'

Hi,
While connecting from one database to another users are getting the below error when they are giving a select statement,its taking around 30 minutes and showing
'ORA-12500: TNS: Listener failed to start a dedicated server process'...
What could be the issue...
Thanks,
Kr.

If database to which they are trying to connect is running, then check listener.log ($ORACLE_HOME/network/log).
Probably there is not enough system resources - check opsystem logs as well (on unix /var/log or /var/adm) on windows look at events.
Look into db alert.log as well.

Oracle 10G : ORA-12500: TNS:listener failed to start a dedicated server pro

When connecting to Oracle I am getting this error. I have restarted the database, restarted the listener, but the problem does not go away. I have increased the processes to 400.

ERROR:ORA-12500: TNS:listener failed to start a dedicated server process

I'm getting this error when connecting to an 8i database. The setup was like this: I had an Oracle 8i database on this server and i installed Grid Control on this server which also created a listener.
From Metalink, I saw the following note: A version 10 listener is required for an Oracle Database 10g database. Previous versions of the listener are not supported for use with an Oracle Database 10g database. However, it is possible to use a version 10 listener with previous versions of the Oracle database.
So I deleted the 8i listener and set up the 10g listener to service the 8i database as well. However, every time I connect to this 8i database, I see the listener refusing the connection. Anything I can do here?
Thanks.

I probably have posted this earlier,
please configure the listener static.
In other words, ensure that 8i registers with 8i listener and 10g registers with 10g listener.
c:\blah\blah\8i\.\lsnrctl start listener8i
c:\blah\blah\10g\.\lsnrctl start listener10g
Read about how to Configure static listener?

HI thanks for your reply,
I tried the above guide but dint helped me,
I tried modifiying Concurrent:GSM Enabled to N & concurrent manager started but all requests were in pending state not running so i reverted back to Concurrent:GSM Enabled Y

DB 9i - TNS-12500: TNS:listener failed to start a dedicated server process

hi all,
I have a problem with the following configuration oracle 9.2.0.1 (32bits) on Win server 2003 - enterprise x64 edition - 10GM of RAM.
I installed DB without problem, run server, started listener - seems all is fine. But when trying a remote connection, "listener failed to start a dedicated server process"

Failed To Start A Dedicated Server Process

Hi
Oracle 9.2
Windows Advanced OS
6G Ram
We switched our server from Shared Server to Dedicated. All was going well, but suddenly no one could log in. Currently logged in users were okay.
Alert Log showed several of the following errors:
skgpspawn failed:category = 27143, depinfo = 9261, op = spdcr, loc = skgpspawn
No errors in the listener.log
Attempted login with sqlplus reported ORA-12500: TNS:listener failed to start a dedicated server process
At the time less than 2G of the 6G was being utilized.
Also, during the time of this event, the event log showed several of the following:
Event Type:     Error
Event Source:     Oracle.ACP
Event Category:     None
Event ID:     31

Any help would be appreciated.

Hi Don
Thanks for the info. I now have the 3GB switch set. I have been leery of setting the indirect buffers due to some posts I have read like these:
ORA-00385: cannot enable Very Large Memory with new buffer cache parameters
Cause: User specified one or more of { db_cache_size , db_recycle_cache_size, db_keep_cache_size, db_nk_cache_size (where n is one of 2,4,8,16,32) } AND use_indirect_data_buffers is set to TRUE. This is illegal.
Action: Very Large Memory can only be enabled with the old (pre-Oracle_8.2) parameters.
ORA-07305: ksmcsg: illegal database buffer size.
Cause: The database buffer size must be a multiple of the extended cache mapping size for indirect data buffers to be used.
Action: Verify that the db_block_size parameter is correct in INIT.ORA, or disable the use_indirect_data_buffers parameter.
I'm assuming these are 10G and above errors, but I just don't know.
Our db cache is already at a fairly large size.(see non standard configs below).
Also, is this an either/or thing. In other words, /3GT OR /PAE and indirect buffers, but not both?
Thanks again.

ORA-12500 TNSLISTENER failed to start a dedicated server process

Environment W2000 Pro SP4 latest fixes
I just installed database 10g (10.1.0) in order to have a 10g (10.1) database (ORCL1) as required by Oracle Warehouse builder and other business intelligrence products like disoverer (from discoverer suite) and Portal 10g (9.0.4)
during installation of 10g database I got following messages
==>Oracle Cluster Registry failed to initialize (in french) and went on
==>error when starting OracleCsservice
i retried and went on.
Install finishes correctly
I can access the new database (type warehouse) with sqlplus in a dos window
However I can't reach it through SQL*Plus of oracle 10g database and get ORA-12500 TNSLISTENER failed to start a dedicated server process message

I only have one LISTENER service (the one that was created for INFRAstructure instance) is it OK ?
All other databases instances I am using where created from INFRA DBCA. and all defined with a dedicated server.
I tried to define it through DBCA of Oracle database
left dedicated server and finish
won't work DBCA refuses
I also tried to Stop/start OracleServiceOrcl1 but it won't stop
database ORCL1 is unreachable from other instances:
from Oracle WareHouse Builder's Enterprise Manager console I get the same ORA-12500 message
same with Oracle Net Configuration Assistant of
Oracle Developer Suite Net assistant
What's wrong,
is one listener enough? is there a bug in the product?..
I read quite a few enties but didnt get the answer to my problem

Hello Werner,
What means error 1058?
i posted an entry in application server
Listener.ora and tsnames .ora where updated on INFRAstructure instance to be nearly identical to 10g DB instance (diference is one db definition)
However starting infrastructure and portal instances has become erratic and error prone:u
It takes about 20 minutes to start these two instances by hand has before i had only to start them and everything went smoothly (but took also a long time).
Now i get the following messages and have to use following opmnctl commands to have the whole thing running as follows:
==> start INFRASTRUCTURE

Get error ORA-12500 : TNS Listener

I keep getting this ORA-12500 ODBC error, TNS listener could not be resolved.
What does it mean?
What is causing it?
The error comes and goes by itself within a few seconds.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks.

I'm using Oracle 8i (8.1.6)

Listener refused the connection with the following error: ORA-12500, TNS:li

I got this error when I use EM, or sqlplus:
Listener refused the connection with the following error: ORA-12500, TNS:listener failed to start a dedicated server process
when I do
$lsnrctl status:
here is the result
Service "abc.def.com" has 3 instance(s).

please help. Thanks.

Ora12500 means your OS has run out of resources, so you cannot start a process on the Server Side. Post the complete error stack, the last lines show further information to troubleshoot this error.

Listener (and database instance) does not starts up automatically: ORA-12514: TNS:listener does not currently know of service requested in connect descriptor

Hi at all.... I'm a newbie with database oracle.,
I have the follow problem:
I installed Oracle Database 11g R2 XE on my guest operating system CentOS 6.5.
I have changed the hostname in my SO CentOS (where is installed oracle 11g R2 XE) after installation was completed successfully.
-) Before and during installation the hostname was localhost.
-) After installation I changed the hostname in VMCentOS
From the moment I changed the hostname, nothing starts up automatically. In particular, the listener and the database instance does not starts up automatically.
When I starts up the listener manually and I try to connect to database instance with SQLPLUS i get this error:
ORA-12514: TNS:listener does not currently know of service requested in connect descriptor
I think that the problem is due to the changed hostname because I, for testing and debugging purpose, re-installed a new OS CentOS virtual machine, re-installed oracle database 11g and I have not got that problem. The database instance and the listener starts up automatically!
Can any one tell me if maybe the problem is related to the hostname changed? ... and Why?
P.S.: After changed the hostname I have also modified the listener.ora and the tnsnames.ora by modifying the HOST with the correct hostname.

RAC Cloning failing with ORA-12505: TNS:listener does not currently know of SID given in connect

Hi Folks
Application cloning is failing with "ORA-12505: TNS:listener does not currently know of SID given in connect"
Database cloning is completed successfuly . database cloned in two nodes node1 and node2
Now cloning applicatino tier with above cloned database nodes but faicing above issue .
Thanks

There are many reasons why an ORA-12505 might be raised at applications cloning. For anyone on this board to assist, you will have to post the log file detail or list the clone execution file which raises this exception.
Thanks,
Arif.

My guess is that the database service "HCM" is not up and running but not sure how to make up and running. Even I could not find it listed in the linux services list.
Note: Able to login sqlplus using "sqlplus sys/sys as sysdba" but failing to access database table as "select * from PSRECDEFN;"
thanks
Espii.

Hi Nicolas,
I have no luck and the error still persists.
I have set the "export ORACLE_SID=HCM" from root user and oracle user too.
I guess, I have already loaded database when I ran the "cd /opt/oracle/psft/vm
./oraclevm-template.sh"
The outcome of the above script as similar as below:

I created Stby DB with the minimum parameters required, so that I configure BROKER and see it magic, but badly stuck in this situation here. I have read many docs related to this..but can not fix it unfortunately.
Please guide me from your own experience as note ids, blogs are not helping me here...
Bundle of thanks.
Best Regards

Hi,
Your listener.ora file has SERVICE_NAME = dg_db2.domain whereas tnsnames.ora file has SERVICE_NAME = dg_db2.
Check in your database for exact service name and reflect the same in both the files.
SQL> sho parameter service_names
Restart the listener and try connecting.
Thank you!!
