Net8 database service test failed

Can someone suggest what Am I doing wrong?
I need to configure the ODBC to work with an application and the first step (according to my reading) is to configure the Net8 Database Services. Well, every time I test the service I have created it give me this error: ORA-12560:TNS:Protocol adapter error. I have check my listener. It has 3 addresses on it and one of them is exacly the same protocol and key from the service that I am trying. Both my database service and the application are on the same machine. So the protocol I am using is IPC (local database) with the key= ORCL. My database have no domain so the global_name is only, ORACLE. Could that be creating any problem?
Please, I really need help.
Thanks,
cip

Thanks akhil for replying. The application that I am trying to connect to is FrontPage. And yes I can work on my sql*plus shell with no problem. If the database is up and running the Listener is too? Should I use TCP/IP even though I don't need to connect any where because my database is local? My Oracle and software application are on the same machine. which host should I use if I don't need to coneect out of my machine?
Now that I tried with the TCP/IP I got the error ora 12541: TNS:no listener. What now? I even started the listener with the lstnctr utility.
I certainly appreciate any suggestions.
Thanks,
Carmen

    Hello,
    If you see error descriptioon it gives access denied so basically it is because of some access issue.I guess You must be using some domin account for installation make sure it is  added as local administrator also instead of using NT Authority network
    service  as SQL server service account use local system account .
    Below link would help
    http://serverfault.com/questions/212135/access-is-denied-error-installing-sql-server-2008-on-windows-7
    You can also browse to setup.exe file and RK on it and select run as administrator

  • Connectivity Test Failed

    Hi, I recently installed Lync 2013 with Edge server in DMZ. I have rather annoying problem. I bought godaddy UCC cert. installed it on edge server (external cert). 
    The problem is that when I try to test connectivity (https://testconnectivity.microsoft.com/) for one user it passes and for the other 2 fails with error . So I don't change configuration at all, just user that is defined in AD (Users exist)
    Testing remote connectivity to Microsoft Lync server through the Lync Access Edge server sip.domain.com on port 5061 to verify user [email protected] can connect remotely.
    Specified remote connectivity test(s) to Microsoft Lync server failed. See details below for specific failure reasons.

    Just one question I saw that Lync Access Edge Port can be changed. I can access via 5061 but via 443 I have a problem. It is probably ARR I have configured, but in general what I wanted to ask is will autodiscover will use 443?  So I can basically close
    5061 is that right ?

  • Testing failed when adding Web Service by OmniPortlet

    I am using Portal of 10gAS. In "Define your OmniPortlet", I selected "Web Service" as the data type. After I typed in the WSDL URL and selected a method, I clicked on Test button under the setion "Enter values for the method parameters". But I got error saying login failed. What's the account it tries to login? How can I fix it?
    The error varys, depending on which Method is selected from the list:

    Hi,
    I beleive you are using the WebService
    http://otn.oracle.com/ws/oracle.otn.ws.scott.OTNDeptEmp?WSDL
    The error message displayed is what the web server
    is returning. Web server may encounter exceptions while executing any method.
    As a web service client, OmniPortlet will display the error messages returned
    by the web server.
    You can try a differrent WebService , it seems to be the issue with WebService
    Thanks

  • "Database Log In Failed - TNS could not resolve service name"

    Hello.
    I have an installation of Oracle 10g Release 2 (10.2) for Microsoft Windows (32-Bit) using WinXP Pro on my computer.
    I have also installed the compantion CD on the same machine (In a separate home directory) so that I can use PL/SQL.
    I have searched through the forum threads but haven't found any similar problem. The solutions that fixed other peoples problem don't seem to be applicable to mine.
    I have created a user 'antagning' and some tables and also some PL/SQL procedures that compile fine. When I request
    http://localhost:7777/pls/projekt/firsttest
    (firsttest is the procedure. doesn't take any params)
    I get the famous
    Database Log In Failed
    TNS could not resolve service name
    Verify that the TNS name in the connectstring
    entry of the DAD for this URL is valid.
    This is my DAD file:
    <location /pls/projekt>
    SetHandler pls_handler
    PlsqlDatabaseUsername antagning
    PlsqlDatabasePassword antagning
    PlsqlDatabaseConnectString ORCL
    PlsqlAuthenticationMode Basic
    PlsqlErrorStyle DebugStyle
    </location>
    and my tnsnames.ora looks like: (there is only one on the machine so there is no conflicting setups I think)
    ORCL =
    (DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST =
    localhost)(PORT = 1521))
    (CONNECT_DATA =
    (SERVER = DEDICATED)
    (SERVICE_NAME = ORCL)
    EXTPROC_CONNECTION_DATA =
    (DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS_LIST =
    (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = IPC)(KEY = EXTPROC1))
    (CONNECT_DATA =
    (SID = PLSExtProc)
    (PRESENTATION = RO)
    finally, this is my sqlnet.ora:
    # sqlnet.ora Network Configuration File: c:\oracle10g\network\admin\sqlnet.ora
    # Generated by Oracle configuration tools.
    # This file is actually generated by netca. But if customers choose to
    # install "Software Only", this file wont exist and without the native
    # authentication, they will not be able to connect to the database on NT.
    SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICES= (NTS)
    NAMES.DIRECTORY_PATH= (TNSNAMES, EZCONNECT)
    I haven't set any default domain because the database runs on my local computer and not on a microsoft server in a domain. Is that correctly concluded?
    I get an OK message when I ping my TNS with "tnsping orcl" (Maybe that information is not relevant in the context)
    My webserver is started and is running fine (I think). If I request:
    http://localhost:7777/pls/projekt (without any procedure name)
    I get the message that no procedure is specified to run so I get some sort of answer from the webserver, so far so right.
    When I log in using sqlplus with my own created user account I have to leave the database field empty or the login will fail. If I specify the field with the string orcl
    the login will fail. Does that imply that something is not quite right? Maybe that hasn't got anything to do with the failure message.

    Has anyone resolved the problems with using TNSFormat?
    As is, I want to move to a shared server setup and to do that I want to use TNSFormat and point to a tns entry which is setup for IPC+Shared connection.
    But the Oracle Home that has the Oracle HTTP Server (from the companion CD) does not have SQL*net installed and does not seem to understand TNS.
    I have TNS_ADMIN setup, I have ORACLE_HOME_LISTENER poiting to the DB Home.
    for the OHS home, using "sqlplus login/pw@ipcshared" works, but "tnsping ipcshared" does not, since tnsping does not exist in the OHS home.
    I cannot install SQL*Net from the CD1, since it requires a dedicated/new home and does not want to install in the OHS Home.
    The only format that works in a dedicated OHS Home setup is ServiceNameFormat.
    Any help or input would be very helpful.
    Regards
    ps. This is a redhat linux setup.

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\MSExchangeIS\ParametersSystem
    Create the following value (REG_SZ): Working Directory and give it a value that points to the new database folder.
    Make sure you back up the registry before you do any changes on it.

  • SQL Developer: Failure -Test failed: IO Error: Network Adapter No Conn

    SQL Developer: Failure -Test failed: IO Error: The Network Adapter could not establish the connection
    Hi,
    and sorry this is a really common questions and yes I did do a search, but I don't understand it.
    First let me just tell you that Oracle 11g is installed on my second laptop on the same Network.
    Secondly I can connect to the Database using Oracle SQL Developer on the laptop Oracle 11g is installed on.
    The problem is I want to connect to the database on my main Laptop.
    I put in the correct details Hostname 192.168.0.8 ( this is the laptop oracle is installed and running on)
    Port 1521
    SID dbarudu
    ****** YES I HAVE PORT FORWARDED
    ****** YES I HAVE ALLOWED 1521 on the FIREWALL
    ****** YES I HAVE EVEN SWITCHED OFF THE FIREWALL
    Now one more thing you should know ... I don't know nothing about Oracle Servers ok.... so I have just installed Oracle 11g Enterprise and thought done it should be working now.
    I just need to use oracle db for a project.
    So keep in mind I am a total noob and terms like TNSPING etc mean absolutely nothing to me.
    So please help, but help with step by step guide on how to get Oracle to let me have access from another computer.

    If the Listener is working, then you should not get the error SQL-Developer error you are reporting.
    The listener typically runs using the hostname and port 1521. This means it opens tcp port 1521 on all IP addresses of that platform.
    The database server by default will register itself with the local listener. Thus the listener will know the database SID, the database services, whether there are dispatchers to support shared server connections and so on.
    The client side needs simply to specify 3 pieces of data to connect:
    - the IP of the database server
    - the tcp port of the listener
    - a database identifier (such as Oracle SID or service name) to connect to
    It is really that simple.
    If this does not work, the problem falls into 2 broad categories:
    a) incorrect installation and configuration of the Oracle software (the out-of-the-box install works unless messed up)
    b) some kind of networking issue
    To troubleshoot any problem means reducing the complexity of the problem, eliminating multiple moving parts and focusing on specific ones, in order to isolate the problem.
    For your problem, this will go something as follows:
    - does the listener run? (check if the service is running and whether tcp connections are accepted on the listener port - telnet can be used for the latter)
    - does the database successfully registers itself with the listener? (check the services command of the listener and relevant db initialisation parameters)
    - does a local TNS (tcp network) connection work on that server? (use SQL*Plus and test on that platform client-server connectivity via tcp to the listener)
    - does the client platform have connectivity with the server platform? (use ICMP and telnet to test)
    - repeat the TNS test on the client platform using the same working TNS tested on the server platform
    Do not use JDBC to test the connection - keep it simple and use sqlplus and the standard Oracle Call Interface (OCI). A full client version of the OCI plus sqlplus can be downloaded under the Oracle InstantClient downloads.
    Finally - if you expect to simply install and use Oracle, then use the correct version. Oracle Express Edition aka Oracle XE. Installs and works out-of-the-box. The only manual config change to make is (as far as I recall) to run the listener on all IP addresses of that platform. And this required editing the listener.ora file, changing the HOST parameter and restarting the listener.
    Also keep in mind that you have not presented an Oracle error code and Oracle error message. But a client application error message. And that message is pretty much meaningless - it does not point to a specific Oracle networking or Oracle server problem. To diagnose that, we expect a TNS or ORA error number.

  • Shared services registration failing during configuration of EPMA 11.1.1.3

    Hi All, I am currently woking on essbase and no knowledge of planning so trying to upgrade my knowledge. I installed epma 11.1.1.3 on windows 2003 VMware work station as I have windows 7 laptop. installed oracle 10g created a database (epma) created user/schemas (sm,ms) trying to configure foundation services, essbase, planning and reporting and analysis. the configure database and register with shared services failed. Am I doing anything wrong. I followed some documents for configuration which are well documented with screen shots still do not know what wrong I am doing. Please advice on how to avoid these failures.
    Below is the validation results of the configuration.
    Thanks in advance.

  • Workflow configuration error - System Account connection test failed

    Hi,
    Has anybody faced a problem with Workflow configuration? The version we are using is 2.6.2 on Oracle database 9.2.0.5 on AIX5L. The workflow installation from 9.2.0.1 installation CDs goes through without any problem. But when the workflow configuration tool comes up it fails with the following error.
    "SYSTEM account connection test failed".
    The system and sys accounts are fine as verified by sqlplus. Any help is greatly appreciated.

    Thanks,
    Chethan

    We had this problem on 2 machines.
    On the 1st machine, we tried the local install option after a few days (Local option with no connect string) and it worked with no problems!
    On the 2nd machine, we could never get it to work even after opening a tar with Oracle. Finally we did a remote install from the 1st machine into the database on the 2nd machine. During the remote install while running wfinstall on the 1st machine, we just had to choose the remote option and the database service name for the connect string.
    Thanks,
    Chethan

    Therefore I guess this is the problem
    All is installed on normal laptop with XP professional at the installation I
    got warning but the requirements are fullfilled.
    Any help,please?
    the saplicense test follows
    C:\usr\sap\J2E\SYS\exe\uc\NTI386>saplicense -test NAME=J2E
    Protocol saplicense test:
    Read sapsytem name
           ok, sapsytem name = J2E
    Read message server host
           ok, host = LMCGIOPAC
    Read message server service port
           ok, service port = sapmsJ2E
    Connect to message server
    saplicense: test failed
    Can not connect to message server (rc: -100)

    Hi Giammaria,
    You could find out, how much your MaxDB is eating up and eventually reduce the memory consumption. If you don't know how to get this information, start the application server, open a command prompt and enter:
    tasklist /fi "imagename eq kernel.exe"
    This will show you how much kernel.exe (MaxDB) is currently using.
    If it is a lot of, you could try to reduce it by changing the CACHE_SIZE in the database instance. To do so, proceed as follows:
    - Start the Database Manager and log on the J2E database
    - Stop the database by clicking the red dot
    - Go to Configuration > Parameters > double click on CACHE SIZE
    - Enter a new value
    - Start the database by clicking the green dot
    Note: VALUE is in pages per 8 KB blocks!
    Hope this helps.
    Regards,
    Klaus

  • SAP Business One Integration Services Authentication Failed

    Dear ,
    ALL SAP forum members,
    Iam Using SAP Business One 8.81 PL 06, Micorsoft SQL 2008 R2
    In SLD B1DI and  JDBC, the connections were tested successfully.
    Whenever I log into SBO, I am getting "SAP Business One Integration Services Authentication Failed" error message. I did extensive research on all possible SBO documents dating 1 year back especially in B1ic Troubleshooting Document (New and Old) and searched the length of the SBO forums, but I could not a solution.
    I uninstalled and reinstalled the B1f package many a time. The integration services we re also restarted many times and the connections were all tested successfully. Firewall, AntiVirus also checked.
    In the B1f, in the Monitoring Window, the login is "Ok" but the AuthCheck is "Failed". I checked Authent.Monitor->Authentic Info  and I found the following message under Action message "Wrong Usrname and Password".
    I debugged and i found again "/com.sap.b1i.vplatform.scenarios.authen/sap.Xcelsius/Authenticate_Check.bfd
    But could not understand much of it.
    But i could go no further. The experts are requested to suggest their solutions, If any, to me as Iam stuck in this phase for the last 3 week
    I hope some experts will guide me over this issue
    Thanks and regards

    Hi Konstantin Ryahovsky
    Thanks for your reply. My problem is solved.
    And frankly speaking i dont know how it was solved. I have not uninstall, install ,not even i had restarted the server also.
    only change i did in SLD >> Maintainance >>> cfg Runtime >>>> Put server IP address instead of server Name and restarted the services.
    Thanks & regards

  • EPM 11.1.2: Foundation Services config fails on Windows 2008 SP1 server.

    Hi,
    I installed EPM 11.1.2 on Windows 2008 SP1, 32-bit. The installation succeeded (no errors in logs). However, when I run EPM Configurator to configure Foundation Services, it fails.
    Environment:
    EPM Server: Windows 2008 SP1 32-bit
    RDBMS: Oracle Enterprise Edition 10.2.0.4 (running on remote AIX 5.3 TL 8 server)
    Oracle Client: 10.2.0.4 (full client install)
    The configtool.log (see below) indicates that the program cannot find the reg.properties file. I checked the server and this file does not exist. The log file also reports non-existing classpath entries (not sure if this is related). The registry.log file (see below) reports a jdbc driver error: java.sql.SQLSyntaxErrorException: ORA-00917: missing comma.
    I submitted a service request with Oracle Support, but the support engineer said that installation and configuration errors are outside the scope of technical support.
    Any ideas/suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
    Thank you.

    Yes. I downloaded and extracted the additional components. I have also dropped and recreated the HSS repository. Each time I have tried to reinstall, I have uninstalled all EPM/Oracle components, removed registry keys, removed EPM environment variables and removed references to oracle in the PATH environment variable.
    I have tried installing/configuring HSS 11.1.2 on both Windows 2008 SP1 64-bit and Windows 2008 SP1 32-bit. The configuration error is the same.
    I was able to get my SR reassigned to a different support analyst, and we are working on troubleshooting now.
    If you can think of anything else to try, let me know.
    BTW...on the 32-bit server, the page file maximum is 16GB (should be enough)?
    Thanks.

  • 11gR2 Install Error, Listener is not up or database service is not registered with it

    Hi all,
    I'm currently studying towards my OCA, I've passed 1z0-051 (SQL Fundementals I), and now I'm moving onto 1z0-052 (Admin 1).
    Im really having trouble creating a database in Oracle 11g R2 Enterprise Edition. I install the software no problem. Then I create a database, and during the creation I have to createsa listener which uses TCP (default port:1521) and IPC. whilst creating the database I get the following error
    'Listener is not up or database service is not registered with it. Start the Listener and register database service and run EM configuration Assistant again.'
    Now, before you lynch me, I have searched this forum for answer to this for a day and a half. I've also tried google, i just can't find a answer that sorts out my problem. please assist me.
    I'm running on Windows 7 Professional (32bit) (I have previously tried on the 64 bit version with teh same results).
    Here's teh contents of my listener.ora file:

    I can login as sys into my database through sqlplus, so it seems the database is up and running, it just seems to be a listener problem maybe??

    SOLVED!
    OK all solved now, thanks to the link to Ed Stevens website that Baris posted (mucho respect )
    Seems that like Barus said I was not using Dynamic Registration, which means that I would need to manua
    ly update the listerner.ora file. On top of that it seems that for some my tnsnames.ora wasn't resolving mt database name so the tnsping wasfailing.
    What I did to solve the name resolution problem
    1. Opened the
    Network Configuration Assistant and saw that my listener didnt have my DB registered with it. So I added it. What this horrible GUI tool does is update the tnsnames and listener.ora files for you. So once that was done I went to the command prompt and did ;'tnsping <dn name> and hey presto it was getting a nice response.
    Then I re-ran my DB Configuration Assistant and tried to reconfigure my database. However it aing failed and gave me the same message that I was originally getting about the DB Service not being registered etc..the lister status still said that same thing:
    Services Summary...
    Service "CLRExtProc" has 1 instance(s).
      Instance "CLRExtProc", status UNKNOWN, has 1 handler(s) for this service...
    the 'unknown' means that the DB  didnt tell the listener that it was there but instead the listener is in manual mode and will just use the configuration in the listener.ora to know where the DB is.
    So then I followed the steps on the ED Stevens website (follow the link). He has steps which show how to enable Dynanmic registration so that your DB regusters itself with the listener. In a nutshell, he states that he listener actually doesnt need the listerner.ora if using dynamic registration. I shutdown the DB, stopped the listener then I renamed the lsitener.ora to listerner.old, then started the lietener and checked the status and it said 'the listener supports no service' I then started the DB and, then resched teh listener status, it then read 'status: READY'... hooray!, the DB had dynamically registered itself with the listener. I then was able to successfully start up and run Enterprise Manager.
    Thanks for all your help Baris, and Ed Steven website.
    I know more now than when I started so I'm happy.
    Thanks.
