Setup seems right but still TNS-12535: TNS:operation timed out

I have Oracle express Edition installed on Fedora 4. I know the listener is started and believe the tnsnames.ora is configured properly but still get a timout when I try to connect with SQL*Plus. I am able to get into SQL with tue GUI tools but want to be able to get into SQL*Plus so I can refresh my skills with writing shell scripts. The only thing I can think is that some port is blocked somewho. I get this timeout when I start a terminal session directly on the computer. I think my environment variables are correct or I would get a different error.

Positive sign ... when going into sqlplus on the same machine as the database AND not using the '@xe', you are bypassing the listener entirely.
So
1) the tnsnames.ora (in $ORACLE_HOME/network/admin) needs to have an appropriate entry (say 'xe') that tells Oracle Network to 'find' the database named 'something' on 'host such and such' (as resolved by /etc/hosts or by DNS) using the listener that is listening on 'port so and so'.
Example:
XE =
(DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = fuzzy)(PORT = 1521))
    (CONNECT_DATA =
      (SERVER = DEDICATED)
      (SERVICE_NAME = XE)
)2) The listener needs to be up

Oracle 10g on Windows 7: TNS-12535: TNS:operation timed out

I installed Oracle 10g (Version 10.2.0) on Windows 7 Professional on my laptop. Everything installed cleanly, but I simply cannot get an Oracle-client communication going. For some reason, TNSPing keeps timing out, as follows:

Thank you.

Hi Bruce,
The scenario you just provided is what you don't want. You want Bruce-Desktop to have a static address. The easiest way to have this setup properly is to look at the IP address that is assigned by the DHCP server and assign that address statically to the interface.
The way you have it now, I cannot tell which IP address Oracle will be using because that will depend on the binding order. You can control that by going to "My network places" -> "Properties" - > "Advanced" -> "Adapters and Bindings"/"Provider Order". It complicates matters though to do it that way.
Since I cannot see exactly in what state your installation is, I would suggest you start over, this time with the network setup as needed. I can help you with the setup if you are willing to go thru the installation again. Trying to guess everything that should be modified in your current installation will be too error prone.
John.
For a new, clean installation, these are the basic steps:
1. Set the computer name appropriately, something like "orahost" is a reasonable choice.
2. Set the primary DNS suffix for the computer to something like "bruce.local"
3. Set the IP address of your computer to be static (you won't even need a loopback adapter)
4. Enter the appropriate information in your hosts file, given the values I mentioned above, it should look something like:
127.0.0.1 localhost
192.168.247.120 orahost.bruce.localchange the 192.168.247.120 to whatever IP address you statically assigned in step 3
When you create the database and it wants the database name, enter <databasename>.bruce.local
Another recommendation, in that same screen, it will want the SID, I use <databasename>sid. This makes it clearer later when Oracle expects an SID instead of a connect identifier or a database name. (though most people have the sid set the same as the database name - for learning purposes, I believe you are better off with different values, in order to tell, when it wants one instead of the other - otherwise, it's hard to visualize)
This way you are mimicking an installation that is closer to a real production environment.
If you want to use DHCP, still do step 3 but reserve the IP address you assigned statically in the DHCP server, that way the static IP will match what would have been assigned by the DHCP server.
HTH,
John.

ORA-12535: TNS:operation timed out (during DBLINK testing)

Hi,
I have created a database link using the follwoing script :

ORA-12535: TNS:operation timed out on other pc

After installing the XE edition on a server, I can connect fine on the server itsself. But when I try to connect from a client machine, I get ORA-12535: TNS:operation timed out.
My tnsnames on the client holds this string for the XE db:
MyDB.10gXE =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = MYSERVER)(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVER = DEDICATED)
(SERVICE_NAME = XE)
any ideas???

Rather than
MyDB.10gXE =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = MYSERVER)(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVER = DEDICATED)
(SERVICE_NAME = XE)
why not go with the bulk standard tnsnames entry as follows:-
XE =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = MYSERVER)(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVER = DEDICATED)
(SERVICE_NAME = XE)
I don't think the qualified MyDB.10gXE name is adding any value and may well confuse things.
Although setting it for my environment does work

OK - when I use your entry pasted directly from the above, with my server name, I get the following problem:-

ORA-12535: TNS:operation timed out on a win2000 Oracle instance

Hi,
i have a Oracle 8.1.5 instance on a WIN2000 PC.
I can connect me to this database with sqlplus
as long i stay on the PC (means i started the sqlplus
on the same machine).
When i try to connect from an other (unix-)system
i get after a while (ca. 90 sec.) the error:
ORA-12535: TNS:operation timed out
tnsping works fine (answer comes back in one second)
There are no firewalls or other "strange" things between
the database and the failing client (on an other PC,
also win2000, Oracle 8.1.5 everything works fine).
Below you see the log with debug of the listener.
I have also a trace on level SUPPORT but this is more
than 1000 lines for just 1 or 2 TNSPINGs and one SQLPLUS
connect. Due to this volume i decided not to attach it to
this initial mail.
Does any one have some advice or experiences ?
Please advice.
Best regards,
[email protected]

Rather than
MyDB.10gXE =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = MYSERVER)(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVER = DEDICATED)
(SERVICE_NAME = XE)
why not go with the bulk standard tnsnames entry as follows:-
XE =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = MYSERVER)(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVER = DEDICATED)
(SERVICE_NAME = XE)
I don't think the qualified MyDB.10gXE name is adding any value and may well confuse things.
Although setting it for my environment does work

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.

TNS-12535: TNS:operation timed out on Vista SP1 OS

Hi everyone,
I am starting to play with Oracle DB recnetly..
today I have TNS connection failed issue.
When I tried to use ODBC to connect Oracle XE DB, I got ORA-12535: TNS:operation timed out.
Here is basic info:
OS:Vista SP1
Oracle Version:Oracle Database 10g Express Edition Release 10.2.0.1.0
I can connect Oracle DB by http://localhost:8080/apex and sqlpus.
and check - telnet ellen.test.net 1521, it is working.
I have no idea why my TNS connection got timeout issue.
Did someone encounter the same issue before?
Thanks for any input in advance.

Is it related?I can not say it is related with 100% certainty.
You can conclude I had a REALLY lucky guess or there is high correlation between VM & having TNS-12535 error.
It is your system & you are free to (ab)use it any way you choose to do so.
We both know SQL*Net can & does work as advertised, but requires a properly configured OS & Network underneath it.

TNS-12535 TNS Operation Timed Out....Pls HELP!!!

Hi All
I have created a oracle 9i database on my local machine and when I try to connect to it from same machine via sqlplus or OEM, I am getting this error message:
TNS-12535: TNS Operation Timed Out.
I have tried to create a new listener but still I cannot connect to database.
Does anyone has any clue what's happening.
Thank you
Amit

Hi,
You could try something, like :
If your System is a Windows system, check if the listener service is active.
Then, from DOS window :
- LSNRCTL stat, to see the status of the listener
- TNSPING <your tnsnames alias>, if you have one.
For local connections :
- set ORACLE_SID = <your SID> as environment variable, then connect as user/password without connection string.
You can also try to stop and start the listener (from dos) :
- LSNRCTL stop
- LSNRCTL start

ORA-12535 TNS:operation timed out from SQLPlus and Enterprise Manager Conso

I keep getting a ORA-12535 TNS:operation timed out error, when I try to start my Database.
I know its a timeout error, but I would like to know what is timing out and why. All I want is the database its self to run to allow me to connect to it via SQLPlus and JDBC.
Is there any information on what the following services do and which ones I need to have running to use the database.
Oracle OLAP 9.0.101
Oracle OLAP Agent
Oracle oraHome90Agent
Oracle oraHome90ClientCache
Oracle OraHome90PagingServer
OracleOra90SNMPPeerEncapsulator
OracleOra90SNMPPeerMasterAgent
OracleOra90STNSListener
Thanks for any help Tony

Either reconfigure CONNECT_TIMEOUT to be 0, which means wait indefinitely, or reconfigure CONNECT_TIMEOUT to be some higher value. Or, if the timeout is unacceptably long, turn on tracing for further information.

TNS-12535 TNS:operation timed out - Win 7 - WAN

Hi!
Database Version: Oracle 11.2.0.2
Server OS: Linux 64bit
Database server "A" at different location (connecting through a 10 MBPS link - latency 15 ms).
I can ping to server.
When i connect to server "A" from client on Windows 7 I got TNS-12535 error (All Win 7 clients).
Firewall on client is down.
When i connect to server"A" from client on Win XP or Win 2003 server is OK.
Both TNSNAMES.ora and SQLNET.ora are the same on each client.
tnsnames.ora

From all clients I can connect to local database server "B" without problem.
Laptop with Win 7 carried to location "A" can connect to server "A".
I've tried Oracle clients from 10.2 to 11.2 and in each case 'tnsping db11' give TNS-12535 error.

You are NOT going to like this answer, but all is symptomatic of Firewall between client & server.

TNS-12535: TNS:operation timed out Question

I get the following error when I try to connect using oracle 9i personal client.
TNS-12535: TNS:operation timed out
The thing is the connection worked 2 days ago and then all of the sudden I get this error.
I've tried changing the CONNECT_TIMEOUT to 0, but that hasnt work.
Anyone have a solution?
thanks, bryan

sounds like a problem reaching the database over the network (or remotely, however that may be). Be sure you have access to the directory where your tnsnames file is located, if you have TNS_ADMIN set in the regisrty, make sure it is pointing to a directory you have access to, etc. I had this error the other day and it turned out it was just failure to connect to the tnsnames file directory on our network.

we are experiencing "ORA-12535: TNS:operation timed out" while users access the application from webserver.per day around 200 errors.
To get rid of the above error we set SQLNET.INBOUND_CONNECT_TIMEOUT=0 in server side sqlnet.ora and

There is Only one listener configured on server.
The similar set up with lesser workload working fine without any errors.

the most frequent cause for TIMEOUT is a FireWall on or between client & server.
when was last time this worked without error?
what changed since then?

Setup seems right but still TNS-12535: TNS:operation timed out
