Unable to connect to destination message installing of oracle 8.0.5

Hi all,
I have a hypervisor environment in which i am trying to install oracle 8 on Windows 2000 server. During the installation of pre-configured database (orcl), the installation stops giving error "Unable to connect to destination" and asks for password. Giving any password or simply entering, the installation completes but after that system gives the same error if i try to connect from sqlplus,enterprise manager or connect internal etc. The hardware is DELL T610 Servers.
Regards,
Iftikhar

Hi,
yes i can get to my database through the sqlplus ... i can also connect to the same database from a 9ias installation on another server and running my application.
what we trying to do now is combine the 9ias and the rdbms on one single server.
When i look at my trace files from both 9ias installation the first number of lines are equal till i get the following from the 9ias which goes wrongly
nricall: Got routable address information.
nricall: Making call with following address information: (DESCRIPTION=(CONNECT_DATA=(SERVICE_NAME=mp5prod)(CID=(PROGRAM=e:\Dev6i\bin\ifweb60.exe)(HOST=OVDAME-MP502)(USER=mp5psv1)))(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)(HOST=hostname)(PORT=1521))).

nserror: nsres: id=0, op=77, ns=12538, ns2=12560; nt[0]=508, nt[1]=0, nt[2]=0

the other server gives a succesful nscall
the hostname is ofcourse entered correctly in the tnsnames but have been removed in this post.

ERROR ORA-12203: TNS: unable to connect to destination

Hello All,
I have installed Oracle 8i and forms 6i on my computer running on Windows NT 4.0 with service pack 4.0. The order of my installation was Oracle 8i and then Forms 6i. I have also used Net8 Easy Config to configure the tnsnames.ora file. I tested the connection on the Net8 Easy Config wizzard and I got the connection successful message. However I still get the ERROR ORA-12203: TNS: unable to connect to destination message when I tried to connect from forms 6i.
I have below my tnsnames.ora file:
# C:\FORMS6I\NET80\ADMIN\TNSNAMES.ORA Configuration File:C:\forms6i\net80\admin\tnsnames.ora
# Generated by Oracle Net8 Assistant
LISTENER1 =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = austin)(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA = (SID = SUN))
Rep60_AUSTIN-Forms6i,Rep60_AUSTIN-Forms6i.world=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=tcp)(HOST=AUSTIN)(PORT=1949))
I have created database objects, but forms will not connect. What else should do?
Thanks for your anticipated response.

Hi
Your oracle database and forms are installed on different oracle home so when you configurate your sql net that time you are configurating only your oracle database. So for form you must be having different oracle home. you cand change thid from start/oracle inatallation products/home selecter. so change our home and run the form. and if still having problem than check for tnsnames.ora file you must be having two files and both must be having right configuration.
thanks

Error Message :- ORA-12203 TNS : Unable to connect to destination

Hi,

ORA-12203 TNS : Unable to connect to destination.
Please suggest how can I solve that problem.

As there are several fixes to this issue, one unique place to look for is the iptables/firewall in Redhat server. Even though EBS applications worked fine until the reboot, we looked at the iptables that was disabled using ‘service iptables stop’ but was never turned off in rc. Nonetheless, this forced the iptables to be enabled during startup and blocked the tns port.
running ‘service iptables off’ helped to fix the issue.
Also, you can confirm if this is the case by simply running telnet dbserver port number . If it doesn’t connect, above fix is valid.

Oracle8 Error Message ora-12203 TNS unable to connect to destination

I am receiving error message 12203 TNS unable to connect to
destination when trying to connect to the database. Also notice
Oracle TNSListener80 isn't starting properly. I start the
service and close services and open up again and the service is
not running. Any idea's would be greatly appreciated.

Please try to start the listener via dosbox:
lsnrctl80 start
Maybe you have to set environment variables before that:
set ORACLE_HOME =
set ORACLE_SID =
If the listener start correct then try from client:
tnsping <alias>
-> ok ?
sqlplus name/password@alias
-> ok ?
If not ok, please check first if you set the hostname correctly
in listener.ora and tnsnames.ora.
Regards,
Thomas

Oracle 8 - ORA -12203 error message -ORA-12203: TNS:unable to connect to destination

dear friends..
it 's been for long time that i have been popped up with the iterating statement at the login time "ORA-12203: TNS:unable to connect to destination " .i slept over the issue and what i have found is that sometime we are not aware that at the time if process is started or not or whether it is started automatically or automatic.i would suggest you to make it "automatic" and prior to that make it sure if the process is already started or not.
i hope by doing this method it might help you to come out from the problem.
thanks ..

How to figure out ORA_12203:TNS unable to connect to destination?

OS: WSK
I have installed oracle817 and form6i in different directory in a machine
and defined two oracle home for them. I can access sqlplus through
OEM of oracle817, but I can not do the same thing through form6i,
the error showed me: ORA_12203:TNS unable to connect to destination.
But after installation, I have copied tnsname.ora of oracle817(oracle_home/network/admin) to tnsname.ora of form6i
(oracle_home_net80/admin). The same error slao showed me when I open
From Builder, droped the menu FILE --> Connect: system/manager/oradb,
TNS unable to connect to destination.
How to figure out this promble? I think maybe listener configuration
have some promble, but I am not sure how to do that?
COuld some give me some ideas? Thanks

Hi shay,
I have not fixed my problem. I defined two homes respectively:
Oracle817: Home_name: oraHome81
Path: D:\oracle
Form6i: home_name: orahome6i
path: d:\Form6i
But I'm wondering when I opened the ORACLE folder under
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, All_Homes just show one home name:
oraHome81 or orahome6i, deponding on which I imported later.
So I like to ask do I need make the export/import
registery of ORACLE floder under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
when you install oralce and form6i together?
By the way, let me attached the TNSNAMES.ora file which
configured by Oracle during installation:

TNS 12203 unable to connect to destination

Hi,
First off..I know nothing about Oracle. We are tasked with the project of making a copy of an win 2000 server which is a version 8.x listner. We shutdown the oracle services on the server, and successfully made a vmware copy. Everything works when we start the new box except the listener. Messages are:
TNS 12203 unable to connect to destination
TNS 12560 TNS protocl adapter error
TNS 00530 error
I am trying to figure the error out, and this server is connecting to a local database on itself.
Knowing this and that the source box was imaged successfully I am looking for directions to look.
I'm assuming all files are correct....tnsnames.ora, listner.or etc. I am looking for ideas with detail please...I know there is a trace utilty that somehow gets turned on, and also it could be possible the sid doesnt match. But how to correct I am unsure. I am searching the net looking for ideas...any help is appreciated.

Unable to connect to SAPNet message server

Hi,
after starting the SAProuter, i have to check if i am able to connect to SAPNet message server.
Here is the message delivered after configuring technical parameters:
Unable to connect to SAPNet message server
Is the problem coming from the saprouttab file?
Here is my configuration of my saprouttab file :
KP "p:CN=sapserv2, OU=SAProuter, O=SAP, C=DE" <SAProuter's Server IP Adress> <Port Number>
KT "p:CN=sapserv2, OU=SAProuter, O=SAP, C=DE" 194.39.131.34 3299

Thanks for your help.

Hi,
yes when i go to
start -> run -> drivers -> etc -> hosts file and i add the command that you suggested to me.
Here is the log file content :
Fri Mar 21 10:55:17 2008 INIT LOGFILE
Fri Mar 21 10:55:17 2008 READ ROUTTAB ./saprouttab o.k.
Edit :
when i run only those command from the saprouttab fil:
P * sapserv2 sapdp99
P sapserv2 <solution manager IP adress>
and after running the SAProuter, it seems to recognize sapserv2 but still have the problem with sapdp99.
Do i have to add sapdp99 with its 3299 port number in the hosts file?

$In Developer Home check that TNS alias in tnsnames.ora has no errors. Are you able to connect from Sql*Plus from Developer Home, using same alias ?
Also check that the listener is running on DB machine.

Hi!
Does this happen when you are on another machine? Maybe there is a firewall present?
When you are on the machine itself, can you connect?
