Archivelogs not transforing to standby

Question

Hi,
In dataguard parameter are configured in
primary database to transfer archivelogs like log_archive_dest_2='service=to_orcl
and standby_file_management=auto, and created directory structure also.
standby database side: standby_archive_dest='/u01/app/oracle/arch/orcl'
Listener is working and tnsnames also working.
But archivelogs are not transforming from primary to standby.
can you please let me know why it is like this.
thanks a lot

like this parameters set.Couple of points must be looked into when there is issue of archive logs are not shipped to standby :
1.It should be :
log_archive_dest_2 = SERVICE=MARKTEST LGWR ASYNC
VALID_FOR=(ONLINE_LOGFILES,PRIMARY_ROLE)
2.Are you able to conn sys/pwd@stby as sysdba If yes then it means there is no connectivity issue; if no then; it is the reason thats why logs are not being shipped to standby site. It is due to issue with password file or something issue with service name. Just drop and create a new/freshpassword file with the same password on both primary and standby.
3.Check whether your OS user is part of ORA_DBA group.
