Re: SQL Plus Error ORA - 12560 TNS:Protocol Adapter error
I am using Oracle 9i
On Windows XP Home
I am trying to learn and become familiar with Oracle 9i
I get the above error whenever I try to log on to SQL Plus
I use the following Id scott
and the following Password Tiger
and the above error comes up
now I can't log on to Oracle9i SQL
I tried going into Start, Control Panel, Administrative Tools, Services
I see the Oracle SID which says Automatic, Started
But I am unable to still logon
Anyone has a solution

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

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 thanksWhen 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}

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 advanceMost 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 -

ERROR:
ORA-12560: TNS:protocol adapter error
This is a local connection (called an internal connect in the old days). The connection does not go via the Listener. It is a local IPC connection. And as you can see, you do not supply a database schema and password as credentials - the o/s user and environment need to provide the credentials.
So I would not expect a TNS protocol adapter error, as this usually indicates a network driver related problem.
For a local IPC connection to work, TWO_TASK must not be set, and ORACLE_SID and ORACLE_HOME must be set (and valid). The local client driver needs to launch an Oracle server process (dedicated server process to service the client driver). It finds that executable in ORACLE_HOME/bin. Next it needs that server process to "attach" itself to the database's brains (the SGA). This shared memory area is identified via the ORACLE_HOME and ORACLE_SID variables.
There also is a requirement that the dedicated server process created, has the o/s permissions to attach to the SGA - which means it needs to be run as the same o/s user as the owner of the shared memory (in other words, the client should be running in the same o/s user as the database processes).
Thus the need to have these variables set. And no need for using a Listener - it is not a factor. -

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.

Help: ORA-12560: TNS:protocol adapter error
I created a new database and afterwards my established TNS connection to my starter database was lost. Now I cant get it to work. I tired deleting the new database I created, but my old connection with my starter db still does not work. When I test the connection using the NET 8 assistant I get the following error: ORA-12560: TNS:protocol adapter error.
Im fairly new to Oracle8i and Ive posted numerous threads elsewhere concerning my problem but so far I havent gotten a solution. Any ideas?
Thanks, Andrew
nullEdwin,
1. I can ping my server.
2. I reinstalled Oracle8i entirely on the server I still could not connect.
3. I installed Oracle8i client on a totally new client I still could not connect.
On thing though, when I de-installed all Oracle products and then reinstalled Oracle, some of my settings from the previous install still existed. Ex: When I opened Net 8 Assistant some of my Net Service Names remained from the previous install.
Three things I think I can rule out as causes:
a) It seems really significant that from the server I can successfully connect through the TNS connection. And this is using the exact same TNANAMES.ORA file that is on my client machine. This leads me to believe that my TNSNAMES.ORA file is not the cause of the problem.
b) Also the fact that the new client install (3) didnt work makes me think for sure that it is not the client.
c) When I open SQL Plus on the server I type ORACLE4 for the host string and I get right in. This leads me to believe that the instance and database can be ruled out as possible causes.
In the Oracle Client Net8 Profile section I set tracing to on. I am posting the results. Also FYI: I am the only person that has been working with Oracle on the server. Any ideas??? Andrew

With regardshello,
if having multiple database on same host, try specifying @<SID> while connecting through command line
restart the service and try again......

Hi Oracle Guru's,
Please save my life from this typical yet known problem.
I got an old backup on my tapes about 3 years older. I have windows server 2k where I have an access remotely through RDP(Citrix-CuraStore).
I installed oracle8i 32 bit on Windows 2k though it got stuck at the end where it installs optional tools(like Net8i assistant), so i closed the installation session, Because I could see Net8i assistant,dbca etc was installed on machine.
I checked my services, found it had started the Listerner8i service.
To create a database, I tried to happen it through DBCA...but unfortunately it gave error(ORA-12560 "TNS protocol adapter error"), I ignored it ...but it didnt move to next step...completely stuck up..So closed the session.
I tried with ORADIM to create service, It did happen, services for database was created, I setup the environment(SID,HOME,PATH) etc.
When I login with sqlplus , it gives again the same error(ORA-12560 "TNS protocol adapter error"), I tried many things like TCP/IP traffing disabling etc..Nothing worked.
Can some one please help me and give me some out of box solution..I shall be really really thankful to them.
Regards,Sorry, If I missed to update you back..I apologize.
Two services(Database Service : OracleServicetest and OracleOraHome81TNSListenerLISTENER_TEST both are up...checked from SERVICES.MSC
listener is up, I can ping the Hostname perfectly.
Is there any other service I need to look into.
Please find the below log as reference for TEST database.
