Cannot log in to SQL Plus on Oracle 8i
Hi,
I have Oracle 8i (8.1.6) Client installed on windows 200 professional. I donnot connect to any servers, and I want to use the SQL Plus module, but I have trouble to login SQL plus, and I an get error message:
ORA-12560: TNS:Protocole adapter error.
Would you please let me know what they are supposed to be: username, password and host string ?
Am I using the correct version, or I have to use the personnal edition, and if so I have Oracle 8i personnal edition, but it is not working with 2000, is there a patch file or do I have to download the 2000 version.
Thanks a lot in advance.
The default logins for Oracle8i are:
SYS/CHANGE_ON_INSTALL
SYSTEM/MANAGER
SCOTT/TIGER
If you are connecting to the default database, don't enter anything in the Host String area. If you are connecting to a remote database, you will need to set up Oracle Net on your machine to connect to the remote database (tnsnames.ora file).
Do you have a database to connect to? You have installed the Oracle8i Client, which should be used to connect to remote databases (on other machines). If you don't have a remote database, you should install the full Oracle9i Server component, not just the Client.
The Oracle8i Personal Edition includes a cut-down version of the Server and the Client, and I think this is what you should be using if you don't have a remote database to connect to.
Personal Edition Version 8.1.6 is now desupported, but was certified against Windows 2000. Personal Edition Version 8.1.7 is still supported and is also certified against Windows 2000.

URGENT - cannot log in to SQL Plus on Oracle 8i
Hi, I have Oracle 8i (8.1.6.0.0) installed on windows 98.
I want to use the SQL Plus module, but I have trouble to login SQL plus, and I an get error message:
ORA-12560: TNS:Protocol adapter error
I supposed the default username and password as follows:
SYS/CHANGE_ON_INSTALL
SYSTEM/MANAGER
SCOTT/TIGER
Am I using the correct version or edition (which I also don't know which edition)? Does windows 98 supports SQL Plus?
I was told to set up a database by selecting database administration then follow by database configuration assistant (in order to use the SQL Plus, firstly a database have to set up). I'm not sure whether this is true? but inside the database administration I don't have the so call "database configuration assistant". Can someone please help me?
Thanks a lot in advance!I hope you can help, I'm in the same boat as the others who cannot log on to the SQL* using Oracle Personal Edition 8
I'm running on 98, and everytime I try entering SYS as username & CHANGE_ON_INSTALL as password, or SYSTEM as username & MANAGER as password; I get:
ORA-01034: ORACLE not available
ORA-27101: Shared memory realm does not exist
I've been trying for a number of days, and have created databases using the Database config assistant, and everytime, it gives me the details as SYS CHANGE_ON_INSTALL etc, but it still doesn't let me log into SQL*
Any help would be gratefully received,

Cannot log in to SQL*Plus after initial login
Hi all,
I have an irritating problem that I am hoping that you can help with. I installed Oracle 10g on RedHat Linux ES 3. Everything seems to be working fine as long as I do not log out my oracle user. If I leave the user logged in everything works as expected. Once I log out, when I log back in I cannot access SQL*Plus normally.
I enter: sqlplus my_user/my_password
I get this:
SQL*Plus: Release 10.2.0.1.0 - Production on Tue Sep 27 11:59:01 2005
Copyright (c) 1982, 2005, Oracle. All rights reserved.
ERROR:
ORA-01034: ORACLE not available
ORA-27123: unable to attach to shared memory segment
Linux Error: 22: Invalid argument
Additional information: 1
Additional information: 360457
But, if I enter it with the connection string: sqlplus my_user/my_password@ora1 then it works fine.
I get the same behavior through VNC. As long as I never log out of VNC but just close the session, logging in to SQL*Plus works as normal.
Any thoughts? My ORACLE_BASE, ORACLE_HOME, and ORACLE_SID seem to be correct.
Thanks,
MikeHi,
Kill the shared memory process and restart your database.

SQL*Plus with Oracle 10g Express Edition
How Can I do to log in using SQL*Plus into Oracle 10g?
My Schema is: Banco.Global
My Password is: 111111
I need to write SET SERVEROUTPUT ON to get answer?
I opened the Prompt, but i don't know to log in.
Thanks and my english is not as well as you.If i write:
SQL>connect "Banco.Global"/111111
a error message is raised: Invalid username/password; logon denied
but if I log in into Home Page with the same Username and Password, I get to log in.
There is difference to connect SQL*Plus and the connect with Home Page the Oracle?
I need to connect with SQL*Plus, because i need to make a test. -
I have yet been able to log in to SQL Plus. I just installed 8i Personal. I created a DB called "SCOTTSDB". After creating it, I wanted to login to SQL Plus. I tried user:system password:manager, user:internal password:oracle, and user:sys password:change_on_install. I just started an Oracle class at the university and wanted to run it at home for more practice. The login that I use at school is user:system password:manager. The host string is the name of the database right? For instance the name of the database that I created is like I said earlier "SCOTTSDB". Is that what I put in the host field? Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you. scott
Hi I want to know, if Oracle 8i server can be installed in Win
98 properly? I tried and it got installed. But, I could not

Logging in to SQL Plus as DBUSER
I can log in to SQL Plus as username scott, password tiger. But I need to login as username DBUSER, password oracle. How can I do this?
In the same way as you did with username scott.
Or maybe there is no user DBUSER in your database.
check with...(as DBA)
select username from dba_users where username='DBUSER' -

And when that's completed, consider ALTERing the table to add a unique index (or even a primary key) so you'll never need to do this again. -
Problem running SQL PLUS in Oracle 8i and 9i on Windows XP
I've tried installing both Oracle 8.17 Personal Edition and also 9i in Windows XP Professional (each on a different occassion). I have run into the same problem each time. The installation itself goes fine in both cases, but when I run SQL PLUS, the Log On screen appears for 1-2 seconds then whole thing just closes automatically, so I can't ever access that application which is the only thing I need to work with. Any ideas on what's going wrong? Thanks.
Patrick,
Well a few things. Did you try TNSPING to see if the listener is up? If it's ok, can you connect with FREE toad? Download Oracle OEM and install that (the SQL net and sql plus portions). If you can't get tnsping to work, sqlplus isn't going too either. I don't know why the sqplus is actually shutting down, but I'm guessing the TNS NAMES entry isnt there (in the tnsnames.ora file). If the tnsnames entry is there then tnsping should work. Get tnsping to work first.

I've just installed Oracle 9i to Windows 2000 server. When I use SQL*Plus, it asked for a username and password. But when I installed Oracle 9i, it never asked me to create user. Then I tried logging in using windows 2000 username and it still did not worked. Is there any default username (like 'root' maybe). Thanks.
There was a dialog displayed during installation that gave you the default logins. They are:
scott/tiger
system/manager
sys/change_on_install
Your Windows login has nothing to do with your Oracle9i login, with the exception of the ORA_DBA group, but that's a whole other discussion that I won't go into here.
I suggest you get reading some Oracle documetation at http://tahiti.oracle.com.

Hi, i have recently started a new course where i am required to learn sql using the sql*plus program and several books. I have downloaded the instant client and the sql*plus program so that i can run them on my computer at home so i can learn at home. However i get a problem where i cannot logon to sql*plus.
I believe this may be because i do not have an oracle server running on my pc, i am however not sure, would be gratefull for any help.Yes, you will need an Oracle Server to connect to. On your personal system, you can download Oracle XE (Express Edition) from OTN and use that. It contains both the server and client (SQL*Plus) components.

Problem logging on to SQl *Plus
Hi
I have installed Oracle 8i Personal Edition Release 8.1.7 on my computer where I have the operating system Windows 98. When I am trying to log on to the database through SQL*Plus, I get the following message: "ORA-12541: TNS: no bugging/listener " (I get the message in Swedish so I hope I have translated it correct in English)
kindly help me out to resolve this problem.
Thanks in advance
AnnaFrom the error messages documentation:
Cause: The connection request could not be completed because the listener is not running.
Action: Ensure that the supplied destination address matches one of the addresses used by the listener. Compare the TNSNAMES.ORA entry with the appropriate LISTENER.ORA file (or TNSNAV.ORA if the connection is to go by way of an Interchange). Start the listener on the remote machine. -
How to append timestamp to log file in SQL*Plus ?
Version: 11.2.0.3
Platform : RHEL 5.8 (But I am looking for platform independant solution)
I want to append the timestamp to spooled log file name in SQL*Plus.
The spooled log filename should look like
WMS_APP_23-March-2013.logI tried the following 3 methods found in the google. But none of them worked !
I tried this
col sysdt noprint new_value sysdt_var
SELECT TO_CHAR(SYSDATE, 'yyyymmdd_hh24miss') sysdt FROM DUAL;
spool run_filename_&sysdt_var.Logas suggested in
http://power2build.wordpress.com/2011/03/11/sqlplus-spool-name-with-embedded-timestamp/
and this
spool filename with timestamp
col sysdt noprint new_value sysdt
SELECT TO_CHAR(SYSDATE, 'yyyymmdd_hh24miss') sysdt FROM DUAL;
spool run_filename_&sysdt..Logas suggested in
http://powerbuildev.wordpress.com/2011/03/11/sqlplus-spool-name-with-embedded-timestamp/
and this
column tm new_value file_time noprint
select to_char(sysdate, 'YYYYMMDD') tm from dual ;
prompt &file_time
spool logfile_id&file_time..logas suggested in
Creating a spool file with date/time appended to file name
None of the above worked in RHEL or MS DOS. Any workaround ?I have tested your suggestions. But I still couldn't append the date to the logfile in RHEL or MS DOS SQL*Plus

Request: enable use of sql*plus via Oracle Instant Client.
hi,
great project....
I've just installed Raptor release 3 on top of oracle instant client, and it seems to be running fine. my sql*plus from the instant client functions from the command line, but the sql*plus menu item in the tools menu is grayed out.
review of the help files say's that oracle_home must be set, but instant client does not need an oracle_home. (uses tns_admin instead).
is there a work around for this? (other than loading the full oracle client w/ it's sql*plus)
thanks
GTThe SQL*Plus menu item does not seem to be correctly detecting the current connection context. I'm filing this as a bug to be fixed before we ship. In the current version, however, you can enable the menu item by ensuring first that the connection is selected in the Connections navigator.
When the menu is invoked, you will be prompted for the location of the SQL*Plus executable. On Windows, this should just be the path to sqlplus.exe (or sqlplusw.exe). On Unix platforms, you should include 'xterm' or an equivalent in order to ensure that SQL*Plus invokes in a window.
