Can not apply redo file

Question

I have configured Oracle Data Guard [Oracle 11g R2] with the help of steps from http://www.orafaq.com/node/2030. "select sequence#, applied from v$archived_log order by sequence#;" show 10 rows with applied status "NO" on primary db, and "no rows selected" on standby db.
Primary DB
db_name : orcl
db_unique_name : prim
Standby DB
db_name : orcl
db_unique_name : stan
both databases were setup on different machines with same configuration and folder structure.
Please help to solve this issue.
Thanks in advance,
Manu

ORA-12514: TNS:listener does not currently know of service requested in connect descriptor
PING[ARC1]: Heartbeat failed to connect to standby 'STAN'. Error is 12514.
pls help..
And one thing i want to know that to which mode i have to startup the primary side.
Then,
When shutdown occurs it will dergister from the listener,that was ok.But after that i connected to sys/*** as sysdba and startup the database.Also i restarted the listener...After all when i try to connect sys/***@PRIM as sysdba or sys/***@STAN,it shows the tnslistener error..does it happen?Actually i want to know when it again register with listener?If I cannot connect primary from the standby and standby from primary using this net_service_name,does redo log apply occurs?
