Connecting to Db from a client

Hi All,
am very new to Oracle.
I have a db server that is up and running.
I installed client on another pc.
After configuring the Client using the oracle net manger , I tried to test my connection, but it gave me the error message:
ORA-12541: TNS: No listner.
I was able to test the connection from the server pc to the db, but cannot from the client.
I am using 10g and on win xp.
Your help will be highly appreciated.
NB: I checked the listner status in the DB and every thing seemed alright.
thanks all

On your database server check if listener is running.
lsnrctl status
On your PC client side double check if you got hostname and port entered correctly. compare with listener status output

    Harshad,
    CONNECT system/[email protected]
    This was not what I asked you to try, this cannot work ;).
    I asked you to try :
    connect system/[email protected]:1521/XE
    I have also tried accessing the database homepage remotely using the url
    http://abo-server.abosoftware.org:8080/apex
    Per default only local access (from the same machine) is allowed via http.
    You can change that either via the GUI (log in as SYSTEM):
    Home>Administration>Manage HTTP Access
    OR
    connect as SYSTEM via sqlplus and run:
    SQL>exec dbms_xdb.setListenerLocalAccess(false);###
    It is documented at
    http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/B25329_01/doc/install.102/b25144/toc.htm#BABIJBHJ
    And yes, you need to open both ports 1521 and 8080 to access it remotely.

  • Trouble connecting to RDP from single client machine.

    I have a Server 2012 machine running remote desktop services.  Users at our branch offices connect to it over the corporate VPN.
    It has been running for over a year now with no significant issues, until this past Tuesday.
    I have exactly one client machine that immediately disconnects upon connecting to the machine.  This does not generate very helpful error codes - On the server side, just a generic 4005 - The Windows logon process has unexpectedly terminated.
    All other client machines can connect to the server without issue, including other client machines in that branch office.  Furthermore, attempting to simply remote desktop into another 2012 server produces the same results on this machine, while remote
    desktop to another windows 7 client machine seems to work just fine.
    I have seen some similar problems mentioned, but they typically involve a server that consistently fails with all clients, whereas I have a single client machine that suddenly cannot RDP to Server 2012 machines.  Any ideas?

    Hi,
    Thank you for posting in Windows Server Forum.
    Have you check with other user account on that client machine?
    Does ping response successfully to the server?
    Firstly please try to run sfc /scannow, check performance for that system, check event viewer whether can find any particular error\event id. For more information you can refer below article.
    Fix “The Windows Logon Process has Unexpectedly Terminated”
    Hope it helps!

    Hi,
    I don't have a 64 bit instance, but maybe another test will be usefull, try to get a connection with sqlplus on the server but via sqlnet like "user/passwd@tnsentry" I think if that also is not possible it is not the 64 bit issue but more that the listener itself coundn't etsablish a db connection, be aware tnsping is only testing if the listener is running and do not check if the listener is able to connect to the db.
    Hope this helps a little to find your real proble ;-), Olaf

  • After update client and server to Lion Unable to (re)connect to OD server from updated client (Lion)

    Hi all,
    I'm a bit in the dark here.
    All day searching and reading.. but nothing much yet.
    After updating the server and a client to OSX Lion, I'm unable to connect to the open directory of the updated server.
    The previous config worked very nice for months.
    Now it's a bit iritating, cause imho it seems nothing is in place and its a bit hard to find a solution or how to setup / correct the OD Lion server .
    Of course i have downloaded the manuals, that state it's all so easy, and I have seen all the movies on the tubers and they also state its so easy.
    Well, since I am feeling a big noob now and before my "self value" degrades 2 below 0 I'm asking 4 your help guys...
    Can you give me the candle to find the way in the dark?
    There are more things that don't work, but save that for later.. ;(
    Situation is as follows:
    Started to upgrade the Server 1st.
    Then tested from the "old client" and all is working reasonably
    Then upgraded to the new Lion client also,
    and you guessed it right, no way in.
    It's a pretty strait up config...
    Hope someone can push me in the richt direction..
    (hope it's not the push service from apple, arf arf,  cause that's one of the other things that is not working yet)

    Steps I took upto now:
    What I did is go to the client and start the Directory Util, and then select the search config.
    Add manually the info of the server.
    Then If I type in the IP address, i got the green bulp. But it seems not to work.
    When I enter the fqdn, I get the error 2100 could not connect to the ODserver (send by the com.apple.systempreferences)
    Because it's an upgrade I deleted then the total contents of the previous settings that where initiated by the "old" setup send by the OD server prev. upgrade.
    Then I deleted the kerberos files on the client, and all other things related. connecting to the OD server.
    Then I deleted the Machine account on the OD server and back to the client.
    Then I created the machine account again from the client manually by going in the OD util on the client.
    (connected manually by adding the ip address and then clicking the lock on top of the menu and then after auth succeeded I could see all the rec's and other stuff ..which is a great new feature that you used to do by the
    WGM. Now available by the ODutil. Nice.
    Okay, after all these steps, I get the feeling it should be able to work, but still the 2100 error.
    Somehow it "seems" that the DNS is not responding, but when I get in the terminal, it responds nicely to the pings.!!! And almost everything (not because of faulty DNS) is working.!
    So now what?
    Any help be appreciated.
    (srry 4 typo's /Language. it's a bit late in Europe and not my main Language)

    This error means that the hostname or IP address used in the TNS connection string, failed to resolve or connect.
    Your client is making two connections. The first connection is to the SCAN listener. It matches a db instance for your connection request based on service requested, available registered service handlers, load balancing, and so on. It then send a redirect to your client informing it of the handler for that service.
    Your client then does a second connection to this service (a local RAC listener that will provide you with a connection to the local RAC instance). This is what seems to be failing in your case.
    The SCAN listener's redirect uses the hostname of the server that the local listener is running on. Your client needs to resolve that hostname (of a RAC node) to an IP address. This likely fails.
    You can add the RAC node hostnames to your client platforms hosts file. The appropriate action however would be to ensure that DNS is used for name resolution instead.

  • Oracle command line to connect to a database directly from a client machine

    Hi,
    I need to connect from a Client machine to a database present on the Database server.
    Client: Windows 7 32 bit/ 64 bit
    Server where DB is installed: Windows 2008, Oracle 11.xg
    I need a command line option that will connect to a database say 'Test' from the command line. I want to put that command in a batch file / exe and call it from there.
    I have tools like SQL Developer and dbForge but was unable to do it. Could I have some help on this.
    I am a fresher with Oracle and I would appreciate detailed steps. Thanks very much in advance.

    Vincent,
    There is a few steps you want to perform, first of all tell me where is your client database server and where you want command line to use Oracle SQL command line.
