It is also possible to get that message is you are not using the same adapter (or do not have networking) when the listener attempts to start or when trying to connect.
Post the results of
ipconfig /all
lsnrctl status
and the contents of the listener.ora and tnsnames.ora found in the %ORACLE_HOME%\network\admin directory
And tell us what steps you skipped/missed in the install doc at http://www.oracle.com/pls/xe102/homepage

ORA - 12560 TNS: protocol adapter error Oracle 9i

I have installed Oracle Developer suite 9i and n personal 9i database on the same machine.( Using instructions located at :
http://www.course.com/cdkit/installinstructionsguideto9i.cfm)
SQL, iSQL, and developer is connecting to database and displaying result but when I run my form from developer forms it give me the following error
ORA-12560 TNS:protocol adaper error
my operating system is winXP professional.
After much research/ trial & error -- the solution was quite simple :
1. C:\OraHome92\network\admin\tnsnames.ora
2. C:\Oracle\Oradev\network\admin\tnsnames.ora
The first one is your Oracle PE database directory and
the second one is the Developer directory in case you
installed with different names.
Both ORA files are text format can be opened with
NotePad if they have different contents
First rename
C:\Oracle\Oradev\network\admin\tnsnames.ora
to C:\Oracle\Oradev\network\admin\tnsnamessave.ora
Copy the C:\OraHome92\network\admin\tnsnames.ora
to C:\Oracle\Oradev\network\admin\tnsnames.ora.
Try to run Froms again.
If it still does not work; stop all Oracle processes
(go to systems "manage" function by right-clicking
"my computer").
Than deinstall Oracle PE and reinstall it by followingthe instructions at:
http://www.course.com/cdkit/installinstructionsguideto9i.cfm
Please let me know if this solution works for you as well.

Gives ORA-12560: TNS: protocol adapter error when installing oracle 10g

I tried to install oracle 10g r2 in server 2008. but it gives ORA-12560: TNS: protocol adapter error when installing. how I can fix this issue??? please help me ASAP. because its urgent.
thanks in advance.
chamara

Welcome to the forums !
Pl indicate which version of 10g you are installing and on which version of Win 2008. Neither 10gR1 nor 10gR2 are certified to be installed on Win 2008 R1, AFAIK.
For 10gR2, only 10.2.0.5 is certified for Win 2008 R2 - see MOS Doc 1173433.1 (How to Install Oracle 10.2.0.5 on MS Windows 7 / Windows 2008R2)
Also see MOS Doc 740926.1 (Where can I find the Database / Client software to download for Microsoft Vista, or Windows 2008R1?).
Both 10gR1 and 10gR2 are now in extended support - is there a reason you are not using 11gR2 ?

ORA-12560: TNS:protocol adapter error while running Oracle Form 10g over IE

Hi,
I am getting the following error message while running my form over Internet Explorer. What could be the error and the solution.
ORA-12560: TNS:protocol adapter error
I am using the same user id/password that i used to create the database.
Plz help.
thanks,
RV

unless you defined the TWO_TASK in your environment, you might need to provide it during the login. The typical Forms login screen has 3 fields, username/password and TWO_TASK , which is the alias used for the database server in the tnsnames.ora file on your end. If you are using iAS forms, then a proper RAD (Resource Access Descriptor) needs to be created by the DBA or whoever manages the iAS server. This is only if SSO is utilized, if not, then you need to provide TWO_TASK as well.
Hope this proves useful

ORA-12560: TNS:protocol adapter error in Oracle Forms...

Hi, I installed Oracle developer suite to use for Oracle forms but am getting "ORA-12560: TNS:protocol adapter error" when trying to run a form. The database is running locally on my PC.
I've run the command line to see if hostname matches up with the "HOST= " in the ".../network/admin/listener.ora " file match, they do. What can I try next? I did have Oracle 10gXE installed, which I have now removed. I'm including my tnsnames and listener file content:

Thanks in advance for any help!

Of course you found another one. Each .and every Oracle database client home (such as developer, app server) has one.
Don't just change the port - the tnsnames.ora in the dev home does not point to a database service. It only points to an extproc [external procedure called by a database]. You need to put a database service entry into that file similar to the one in the database home. (Easiest solution - copy the tnsnames.ora from db home ... after you've made a backup)
And please don't tell me you are using Developer 6i - a simple Google search would verify that the networking is incompatible.

how can im going to login Oracle 9i database Sql Plus ? anywany other fix this problem ?
Edited by: shajib on Mar 12, 2010 1:31 PM

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.

Vbscript to connect to oracle fails with ORA-12560: TNS:protocol adapter error

I am running a Windows 7, 64 bit system with the Oracle 32 bit client installed. The 32 bit client is required for use with Oracle's Documaker Studio which is working fine with the current client configuration. I would like to connect the same database using a vbscript. Here is the test script I am using:
Option Explicit
Dim strCon
strCon = "Driver={Oracle in OraClient11g_home1_32bit}; " & _
         "CONNECTSTRING=(DESCRIPTION=" & _
         "(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)" & _
         "(HOST={VSTODEEDATxx.xxxxxxx.com})(PORT=1521))" & _
         "(CONNECT_DATA=(SERVICE_NAME=IDMAKER))); uid=xxxxxx;pwd=xxxxxxxx;"
Dim oCon: Set oCon = WScript.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
Dim oRs: Set oRs = WScript.CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset")
oCon.Open strCon
Set oRs = oCon.Execute("SELECT TO_CHAR(SYSDATE,'MM-DD-YYYY HH24:MI:SS') AS DateTime FROM DUA")
While Not oRs.EOF
    WSCript.Echo oRs.Fields(0).Value
    oRs.MoveNext
Wend
oCon.Close
Set oRs = Nothing
Set oCon = Nothing
In the connection string I am using the 32 bit driver used succesfully by Documaker. I provided all the parms to eliminate the need for tnsnames.ora. However, I do have tnsnames.ora on my system and Documaker is using it.
Since the client is 32 bit, I am using the following command to run the script:
c:\windows\syswow64\cscript.exe c:\temp\oracle\testing\testconnect.vbs
This is suppose to run the script in 32 bit mode and be compatible with the client.
When I run the program I get the following error:
Microsoft (R) Windows Script Host Version 5.8
Copyright (C) Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.
c:\temp\oracle\testing\testconnect.vbs(12, 1) Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC
Drivers: [Oracle][ODBC][Ora]ORA-12560: TNS:protocol adapter error
Would someone please advise on how to debug this problem? Thanks, Gary

"connectstring" is not a valid attribute with Oracle's ODBC driver, so since there is no datasource attribute specified, the app is trying to connect to a local database, and since you don't have one, you get 12560.
To resolve the problem, pass DBQ=      instead of CONNECTSTRING=

ORA-12560: TNS:protocol adapter error while configuring ORACLE Workflow

Hi,
I am trying to configure ORACLE Workflow. I have given sys password and other parameters in the given format in Workflow Configuration Assistant. My DB Server is in my local network and I connect to it using SID in SQL Plus. But I got the following error while WorlflowCA tries to execute relevant script.
ERROR:
ORA-12560: TNS:protocol adapter error
SP2-0640: Not connected
WorkflowCA: Non-Oracle10g database detected
If anybody is having any clues, please help me.
Thanks in advance
Ajish M.

Thanks a lot for your quick reply.
I've read all the posts mentioned (quite a few more) but I couldn't find any suggested solution to the "non-oracle10g"-problem other than using the global db name instead of the sid - which didn't help in our case:
However, in a last desperate attempt to solve the problem on my own before launching another cry-for-help-post I did try running the configuration assistant using the correct password for the SYS user 8-} and - strange but true - it did work :-)
Needless to say: I used the global db name of course, so I can't say what would have happened without it, but I trust your hint was a legitimate one.
Anyway - I gues that error Message concerning a "non-oracle10g database" was slightly misleading in this case.... grrrr.

Oracle Database 11g Installation Issue: ORA-12560:TNS: protocol adapter error.

Folks,
Hello. Initially, my Windows XP host name is "localhost" and IP address 127.0.0.1.
I installed Oracle Database 11g with Windows XP successfully and all Database clients work with Database instance correctly.
For some reasons, I uninstalled the entire Database Server and delete the entire installation directory /oracle.
I configured Windows XP IP address into 192.168.196.101 in order to ping other machines.
For my need, I installed Oracle Database 11g with Windows XP again. On step 7 of 8: Oracle Database Configuration Assistant, I got this error:
ORA-12560:TNS: protocol adapter error.
I click "Password Management" button, there are no rows in this Windows (no username, no lock accounts).
I check listener as below:
C:\>lsnrctl
LSNRCTL>start
Its output: listener name LISTENER has already been started.
LSNRCTL>status
Its output: ......Service DB1 has 1 instance. Instance DB1 status ready. The command completed successfully.
I check \Oracle\cfgtoollogs\dbca\DB1\trace file, the entry is :
listen[0]=LISTENER address=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)(HOST=localhost)(port=1522))
I also check \oracle\product\11.2.0\dbhome_1\NETWORK\ADMIN\SAMPLE\tnsnames.ora file and listener.ora file, the entries are the same as below
HOST=localhost port=1522
I think HOST=localhost and port=1522 is the cause of the error ORA-12560 because Windows XP has been configured into HOST=192.168.196.101.
But I don't understand how to solve this issue.
Can any folk tell me how to solve this issue ? need to cancel the installation on step 7 of 8 and install it again ?
Thanks.

Folks,
Hello. Oracle Database 11g Installation Wizard is on step 7 of 8. I don't cancel the Wizard. I am not sure whether there is effect or not. listener.ora is not removed. I have been waiting for a while after stop listener. I run the 3 commands again and copy the result as below:

ORA-12560: TNS:protocol adapter error while creating new database

Hi,
I installed Oracle Enterprise Manager 10g Grid Control Release 1 (10.1.03) and created the default database it had which was emrep. Once Oracle Grid Control was installed I ran the install for Oracle Database 10g Release 1 (10.1.0.2).
Now when I try to create a database I get the following error: ORA-12560: TNS:protocol adapter error.
My assumption is because I seem to have 2 Oracle home's now because I installed the Grid Control??
My question is, have I done this backwards? Should I install Oracle 10g before installing the grid control? If thats not it, can someone point me in the right direction?
FYI: The server we're using is running Windows Server 2003.
Thanks for your help

ORA-12560: TNS:protocol adapter error. Running sqlplus in different paths.

Hi,
Title: ORA-12560: TNS:protocol adapter error. Running sqlplus in different paths.
Very strange. We have windows host, 32 bit oracle software 10g, 64 bit sap kernel X64.
We have done Kernel patch yesterday and it was successful, system up and running.
Only problem with sqlplus. I have logged in as SIDADM user and when i open command box, the default path is C:\Documents and Settings\SIDADM. when i run sqlplus sys as sysdba, iam able to connnect without any problem but when iam in this path - /usr/sap/SID/SYS/exe/run and run sqlplus sys as sysdba, it returns ORA-12560 error. Thats why, the BRTOOLS are also not working, giving same error.
Is there a problem in the kernel? Where could be the problem?
The environment variables ORACLE_SID, ORACLE_HOME are set properly.
Many thanks,
Mohan.

Hi,
Please look into below SAP recommendation from SAP note 192822:
3. Can I run 32-bit applications on my 64-bit platform?
This depends on the platform you are running on. For all unix- platforms, this can be done without any problem. Even if the OS is started in 64-bit mode, it is possible to run 32-bit applications (R/3, oracle) on it. there is no need to either upgrade oracle or R/3 toa 64-bit version.
This, however is NOT the case for windows & Linux. If you have IA64 hardware in place, you do need to run an 64-bit OS as well as all application in 64-bit mode.
Could you please now share with me your OS (version and whether it is 32 bit or 64 bit as well), database (32 bit or 64 bit), SAP system (32 bit or 64 bit and System release) ?
Thanks
Sunny
