Pl enable SQL*Net client tracing as identified in MOS Doc 395525.1 (How to Enable Oracle SQLNet Client , Server , Listener , Kerberos and External procedure Tracing from Net Manager) to see if more details can be collected about the error.
MOS Doc 793526.1 (Intermittent TNS-12560 Error Connecting From Remote Windows Client) may also help.

ORA-12560 :TNS protocal adapter error

Hi everyone,
                 I'm using Oracle 11g Enterprise Edition Server in Windows 8.1. I'm getting the TNS protocal adapter error. My service is not up(I checked in the services using services.msc).
Until Yesterday It worked well for me, I got this error after I updated from Windows 8 to Windows 8.1.
Here is my tnsnames.ora file data,
ORCL =
(DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = Andrew)(PORT = 1521))
    (CONNECT_DATA =
      (SERVER = DEDICATED)
      (SERVICE_NAME = orcl)
Here is my listener.ora file data,

    (DESCRIPTION =
      (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = IPC)(KEY = EXTPROC1521))
      (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = Andrew)(PORT = 1521))
I have tried this to start the server, It throws the following error.

Thanks for all your reply, I thought whether It was my fault and I tried a lot of commands which I found in this Oracle Forum for more than 3hours, just now I found a link(The problem is because when I moved Windows 8 to 8.1), I found this link fortunately.

Oracle is the victim; not the culprit.
Both problem & fix are external to Oracle RDBMS

Does anyone have any ideas what else I can check. I'm a Unix person, not a Windows person, which is making it even more complicated. If I was on Unix, I'd just blow everything away and start again from scratch, but since I'm not sure how to remove all traces from the registry, etc., I don't want to try that on this machine. There was already one other database created, but it's not goign to be used.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
regards,
Tarisa.

hi,
thanks for the info. the problem, as it turns out, was that I was connected to the db server via a terminal service (Microsoft Management Console), which for some reason caused probelms with TNS. After I connected directly to the machine using VNC, I was able to create the database with no problems. strange but true.

Tarisa.

"TNS: Protocol adapter error" while creating a database

Hi All,
I´m new to Oracle and trying to create a database.
We use Oracle 8.1.7
I´m using the Database Configuration Assistant. The problem is when creating the database I get the error:
TNS-12560 TNS: Protocol adapter error
Any help will be really appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Carlos.

Do you have ORACLE_HOME and/or ORACLE_SID defined in the environment which are different than the settings for the new database that you are trying to create?

Thx.

Yes, the XP firewall is running. During the Oracle instalation it poped up twice, but I selected 'Unblock'. I can't turn it off because it is running using the domain settings, but I can add exceptions (programs or ports). Port 1521, tnsping or sqlplus are not blocked and there is an option 'Display a notification when Windows Firewall blocks a program' witch is checked.

File adapter error after updating to SP19 (INBOUND_BINDING_ERROR)

File adapter error after updating to SP19 (INBOUND_BINDING_ERROR)
Hi all,
im having some troubles after the installation of SP19 (from SP16 in NW04) with File Adapter (File->Idoc scenario).
In message monitoring (Adapter Engine), I have several messages with status "System Error". The error text is :
Received XI System Error. ErrorCode: INBOUND_BINDING_ERROR
ErrorText: ErrorStack: Error in sender agreement for party '', service 'LEGACY_DEV', interface namespace 'http://XXXXX.com/XXXXXX', interface 'INTERFACE_OB' No sender agreement found for , , , , ,
Im sure that the Integration Directory settings have not been changed. So I tried the following, but the problem persists:
- Deactivation/Activation of File Adapter channel
- check that user XIISUSER is not locked
- checked SXI_CACHE (it seems ok)
- Many CPA full refresh
- Dummy modifications of File Adapter channels (a dummy modification of the description)
- Reboot J2EE
I've seen that someone else had problems after upgrading to SP19. I'd really appreciate any suggestion of how to solve my issue.
Thank you
Manuel

ORA-12560 TNS protocol Adapter error in 11g (11.1.0.6)

Hello All,
I have Oracle 11g installed on my machine and when i tried to log in to sql plus i got the error below:
ORA-12560 TNS protocol Adapter error
By setting the ORACLE_SID = orcl by browsing to the bin directory of Oracle Installation the above error disappaears and i am able to log in from sql plus.
My intention is to create a db backup for which i am trying to use the exp command...this time the same error appears.
Also the solution of setting the ORACLE_SID is cumbersome..everytimt i want to use sql plus i need to go in and set the ORACLE_SID.
Can anybody please help me out find a good solution for this?
Any help would be appreciated friends.....
Thanks in Advance!!!!!
Regards.
Alicia

Also the solution of setting the ORACLE_SID is cumbersome..everytimt i want to use sql plus i need to go in and set the ORACLE_SID.
Can anybody please help me out find a good solution for this?The solution depends on your (not specified) operating system...
Anyway, if you have more than one database it's normal that you have to set ORACLE_SID, if not how can Oracle know which database you want to access to ?
You can create batch files, one per database, or you can use connection strings, e.g. sqlplus username/password@<DB>.

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:
# tnsnames.ora Network Configuration File: C:\oracle\product\10.2.0\db_1\network\admin\tnsnames.ora
# Generated by Oracle configuration tools.
LISTENER_ORCL =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = frankenputer)(PORT = 1522))
ORCL =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = frankenputer)(PORT = 1522))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVER = DEDICATED)
(SERVICE_NAME = orcl)
EXTPROC_CONNECTION_DATA =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = IPC)(KEY = EXTPROC1))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SID = PLSExtProc)
(PRESENTATION = RO)
# listener.ora Network Configuration File: C:\oracle\product\10.2.0\db_1\network\admin\listener.ora
# Generated by Oracle configuration tools.
SID_LIST_LISTENER =
(SID_LIST =
(SID_DESC =
(SID_NAME = PLSExtProc)
(ORACLE_HOME = C:\oracle\product\10.2.0\db_1)
(PROGRAM = extproc)
LISTENER =
(DESCRIPTION_LIST =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = IPC)(KEY = EXTPROC1))
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = frankenputer)(PORT = 1522))
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.

Oracle 8i tns:protocol adapter error

Hello,
     I am programmer and wanted to try and learn oracle
database. I am trying to install Oracle 8i Releae 8.1.5
developer edition (which I got with a book) on windows NT 4.0
with service pack 6. But after doing a minimal install when and
creating a database I am unable to access that database using
SQL plus. Whenever I try to connect an error message is
displayed saying:
     "ora12560TNS: protocol adapter error."
     I tried to install it on my friends machine on one
friends computer it worked but on another's it didn't work. Same
message appears on that friends machine also who is using
windows 2000 professional.
     Could you please tell me what could be the problem.
Because I am able to connect to database using mmc snap-in
provided for database administration.
     Also during installation it displays a message about a
single missing .tmp file in a sub-directory which is many levels
deeper than the directory where oracle is being installed. File
name I think is nmconf.tmp.
     I hope you can suggest me some way to solve this problem.

Check if you have enough space and the required permissions to write to the temporary directory used by the installer during installation.
We had a similar problem on a UNIX installation which was eventually traced to a non-writable temporary directory that caused the installation to silently fail, which effectively caused the TCP/IP protocol adapter not to be installed.

Why aren't adapter errors visible in SXMB_MONI?

My client has an integration scenario that updates an Oracle database through a JDBC receiver channel. Occasionally an insert/update statement will fail. The adapter engine logs the Oracle error message, but that error message doesnt show up in SXMB_MONI. SXMB_MONI happily displays the checkered flag. You can only see the adapter error in runtime workbench.
Why arent adapter errors visible in SXMB_MONI?

You can't propagate an error which occurs in a later point of the pipeline to a previous point.
They error may occurr in the adapter, but when the message gets to the AE, the Integration Engine pipeline is already complete.
But you know, the later point can carry on errors occurred at a earlier point. That is why you can see the Integration Engine errors in the Messsage Monitoring.
It is a matter of culture. SAP consultants, in general, are more confortable with ABAP stack (SXMB_MONI) than with Java Stack (Message Monitoring). But, in this case, the Java tool is more complete.

Handling JDBC adapter errors in BPM

Hi,
I am using BPM to insert data in SQL server using a snychronous send.However i am not able to trap the adapter errors like server is down or could not insert because of key violation.
Hence i decided to use transport level ack. But i understand that error description is returned in fault messages. Can i use fault messages in BPM???
And also if that is not possible, I would like to know how can i configure alerts in JDBC adapter.
Thanks in advance.

Anand,
I dont think this is possible. Fault Messages should be sent by the Application System back to XI , the Database in our case. AFAIK< the database cannot send back such fault messages and the error message is trapped in the JDBC adapters log. Try using Adapter Engine Alerts and this will cause the Message to be passed to your ALert framework from the adapter.
