thanks in advance1) V10 is obsoleted & unsupported
2) I bet that you did not follow Installation Guide & complete all prerequisites.
3) SQL*Net is not required to manage, start, or use local Oracle DB

  • 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 ?

    Hello,
    You may set the ORACLE_SID first:

  • TNS Protocol Adaptor Error

    Hi all, I need your help.
    I'm using forms 10g on an oralce 10g database, the program is successfully compiled but when running it, it gives me the 12560 error "TNS: Protocol Adaptor Error"
    does anybody have any idea?

    Hi ,
    The Oracle Doc says to take the following action in this situation:
    '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'.

    And you also read this?
    To install, use Oracle Database 11gR1 Release 1 (11.1.0.7.0) for Microsoft Windows 2008 Server. Do not install with the 11.1.0.6.0 version.
    PS: To get better advice, don't post a marketing label like 11g only. post the full version you're trying to install.

  • If I already have APEX installed can I install 10g Standard Edition too?

    can I have both running on the same machine?

    If you are referring to Oracle XE database as opposed to APEX then the answer is yes. Just be sure to assign the Oracle Standard Edition to a different "Oracle Home".

  • ORA-12560 while installing database 11g  11..1.0.7.0 on Windows 2008 server

    This started with an install of Oracle Financials that failed and led me to the discovery that I can't even install a generic database on this machine, the two issues are certainly related.
    Why would I get this failure on a clean install???
    Is there a problem with the computer being a domain controler or called Sampson-II ?
    Thanks in advance.

    I'm not seeing any conflict with other prerequisites or tasks that need to be executed before the install is done.
    The listener installs but when the database is to be installed, it fails.

  • Oracle 10g standard edition installation and problems with logon (help pls)

    I installed 10g standard edition, however I got the following two messages during installation:
    1) The host IP address can not be determined
    2) Missing or Invalid password ...
    Eventhough I unlocked all the passwords during install (tiger/scott, sys, system, etc) I can not logon now with none of them ("invalid username/password: logon denied"). I also get "ORA-12170: TNS: Connect Timeout Occured" when trying to lgoon with my email addr and password used for installation.
    Please help, this is frustrating. Thx!
    P.S> Do I need to input anything in the "Host String" box ?

    Chances are
    1) you are using WIndows of some sort;
    2) your machine does not have a static IP address (you are using DHCP);
    3) you have not installed the loopback adapter, as desrcibed in the installation document.
    You may want to review the Oracle Database 10g (release whichever you are using) "Installation Guide" manual for your operating system again. I think you missed a step.

    In the same folder of your client machine, check to make sure your SQLNET.ORA specifies that it's using TNSNAMES.

  • ORA-12560 TNS: Protocol adapter error while installing database

    Hello,
    I'm having troubles while installing my oracle database 10g. My server is SUN OS 5.10
    When I am in the copying datafiles step, a pop up message shows up [ORA-12560 TNS: Protocol adapter error]
    Could you please help me?

    I am creating the database the database.
    I am relatively new in Oracle but I have created a DB before and the ORACLE_SID was set after the database was created.
    The steps I execute for are:
    1. Install the Oracle engine (without create the DB)
    2. Install the Patch
    3. Create the database (dbca)
    After the database is created, appears a popup (Database configuration assistance warning) where it says to set the oracle_sid among others steps.
    Is it mandatory to set the ORACLE_SID before? some other configuration that I could be missing?
    Thank you

    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
