Error Ora-12560: TNS: error del adaptador del Protocolo

When I'm connect to oracle data base I have this problem it's the error.
What can I do whith my problem.
Please helpme.

It's basically saying that you cannot connect because the SQL*Net process can't find the database.
Check:
1) your tnsname.ora file is correct
2) your ORACLE_HOME is correct (if you are getting the error on the server console)
3) Check the alert log - that can often contain some more information.
4) The listener is up and running.

ORA-12560 TNS error in protocol adapter. Why ?

I installed on computer1 an Oracle Express 10g server and he runs fine.
Then, on another computer2 in the inhouse-net I installed the Oracle Client.
When I try to contact now from computer2 the Oracle server on computer1
with e.g.
sqlplus.exe myname/mypasswd
I am getting an error ORA-12560: TNS: Error in protofol adapter.
What does that mean?When I enter the same locally on the server machine everything is fine.
Firewalls between the computers are disabled.
Which Oracle services must run on the client (not the server !) machine ?

Ok, my Oracle Client is installed in C:\XEClient
Below I show you the (recursive) output of the 'tree.exe' command (under WinXP)
of the folder tree of C:\XEClient. Where is the directory "network/admin" ??????
C:\XEClient>tree
Folder PATH listing for volume WinXP
Volume serial number is xxxxxxxx

ERROR:ORA-12560: TNS:protocol adapter error

I am using Win XP Pro. in my PC. I just installed Oracle 9i. When I put in my
user-name and password to run SQL+ 9.0.1 it gives me the following error
message : ERROR:ORA-12560: TNS:protocol adapter error.
I am new to Oracle. Please give me the steps how to fix this error to be
able to run SQL+.
Many thanks

When starting server manager the following error is generated:
ORA-12560: TNS:protocol adapter error occurred
Cause:
Oracle classify this as a 'generic protocol adapter error'. In my experience it indicates that Oracle client does not know what instance to connect to or what TNS alias to use.
Possible Remedies:
* If running on the server (or workstation) that is running the database (i.e. if the database is local to the machine) then try explicitly setting 'ORACLE_SID'. e.g.
set ORACLE_SID=<sid>
and then try again. If this works then consider whether to make the change permanent by specifying it as a system variable.
FOR RUN THIS SID PLEASE REFER IT
Go to command prompt
C:\Document and settings\ORANGE> cd\
C:\> set oracle_sid=<DB name>
e.g C:\> set oracle_sid=<rajesh> {press enter}
C:\> sqlplus /nolog {press enter}
sql:\>connect sys/sys as sysdba {press enter} it cant ask for password directly connected
or
sql:\>connect sys as sysdba {press enter}
password : sys {press enter}
sql:\> connected
or
sql:\> connect scott {press enter}
Enter password :tiger {press enter}
sql:\> connected
or
sql:\> connect system {press enter}
Enter password :manager {press enter}
sql:\> connected

You're attempting to go across SQL*Net. I'm a unix guy so I can't help very much except to point this out.
On Unix I'd either undefine the TWO_TASK environmental variable. Probably a reg entry on 2k.
Or configure Sql*Net.

Error ORA-12560:TNS:protocol adapter error - on client

dear frnds,
I am try to install oracle 11g to my client iam getting error
ORA-12560:TNS:protocol adapter error
pls help me out
thanx in advance

Most likely reason for TNS Protocol adapter error is....you must have older client FIRST in your path.
You 11g binaries are not kicking in, cuz...you must have 10g or similar/older binaries first in your PATH ( in windows )
In windoz...in cmd window...
set ORACLE_SID=xxxx
set ORACLE_HOME= to your 11g home
cd %ORACLE_HOME%\bin OR set PATH=%ORACLE_HOME%\bin;%PATH%
Then your sqlplus etc..
This time you should not be getting the protocol error.
Let us know whether this solved your problem

Oracle 9i Database gives the error "ORA-12560: TNS: Protocol Adaptor Error"

Hi
I am working on Oracle9i Database, but from few days there is a problem, I can not enter in the database using SQL*PLUS or any other tool. When I give the user name and password it give the error message, that is given below:
"ORA-12560: TNS: Protocol Adaptor Error"
Please help me regarding this error.
Gul Bahar Oad

A bit generic .... In SqlPlus are you connecting from the server or from a Client ?
Did you check if the listener is running ?
Did you try tnsping ?
What is your OS ?

Ora-12560 TNS ERROR

Hello All!
I keep getting this error after installation ,when I try to log into SQL+:
Ora-12560 TNS PROTOCOL ADAPTER ERROR..
Any ideas how to go about it?
thanks!
Sandhya

Hi Sandhya,
Are the scripts used to restart your database instance(s) after system restart also starting the TNS listener process?
Are you using multiple Oracle Homes? Oracle 8.1.5 or 8.1.6 with Oracle 8.0 can cause 'issues'.
Cause:
ORA-12560: "TNS:protocol adapter error" that means the listener was unable to start a process connecting the user to the database server.
Actions:
Check addresses used for proper protocol specification. Before
reporting this error, look at the error stack and check for lower level transport errors. For further details, turn on tracing and reexecute the operation. Turn off tracing when the operation is complete.
TNS experienced a protocol-adapter error. There could be some problem with the installation of your Oracle Protocol Adapter. To resolve this problem, turn on tracing and review the output to identify the severity of the problem
Regards,
Beau

Yes I realize that the JSERV is pointing in the incorrect are
the J drive is a flashdrive
In the Registry I have just deleted the 2nd Orahome directory which was on the J drive
so all I have now left is the Orahome directory on the C drive
how do I make corrections so that from now on the JSERV, Path, and WV_Gateway._CFG point to the C drive

Although this question is completely off topic of the Personalization you can learn how to configure the SQL*Net connect from the manual by reading the topic "Configure the Client to Use a Net Service Name" found at the following link:

Step 1 - from a command line on the database machine, enter 'lsnrctl status' and report the output
Step 2 - display the contents of the %ORACLE_HOME%\network\admin\tnsnames.ora file on the machine running sqlplus.
These are the first two stepo, whether on the database machine or in a traditional client-server configuration.
