Hi Everybody,

I had installed Oracle 8.1.7 on a machine. But When I use SQL Plus I get ORA 12560 TNS Protocol adaptor error. So I gave the following commands:

D:\ set ORACLE_SID=AFRES
D:\svrmgrl
svrmgrl:\ connect internal
svrmgrl:\ startup

Now the database starts. Every time I boot the system I have to follow this set on instructions.

I have checked the services and all oracle services are set to automatic and have been started.

I have also tried searching for ORA-12560 on this forum but could not get anything that could help me.

Can someone please help me.

Thanks

One possible solution might be to put those commands in a .BAT file, create a shortcut to it on you desktop, and just click on it when you want to start the database Smile

Hi,

You are trying to connect from the same node itself or from some other node.

And have you created a listener using netca ?

Hi,

The ORA-12560 occurs generally when :
- ORACLE_SID is not set correctly (seems OK here)
- The service is not started (seems OK here)
- Using Terminal Services (with bequeath connection)
- The SID name includes special characters (seems OK here)

So :
Do you use TSE ?
Does problem occur with *local* connection ?
Does it work via listener ("@db") ?

Tom

Hi Everybody,

I tried putting it in a .bat file, inclulded it in the startup and started the machine. The .bat file works only upto
D:\svrmgrl
When the prompt comes to
SVRMGRL:\ It waits. This part does not work in the .bat file.

I am connecting it from the same node.

I do not know whether I am using TSE, and about using via listener ("@db"). What is TSE?

When I installed Oracle I let it do everything. I have not created the listner via netca. What is netca?

Thank you all very much.

Check your registry in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ORACLE\HOME0 and see if ORACLE_SID is set. In addition, can you verify that ORA_AFRES_AUTOSTART is set to TRUE in the registry?

Hi Everybody,

In HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ORACLE\HOME0 there is no ORACLE_SID. I created it. ORA_AFRES_AUTOSTART is set to TRUE in the registry. Now I restarted the machine. Now I am getting

ORA - 01034 - Oracle not availabe
ORA - 27101 Shared memore realm does not exist

Thanks a lot.

Use %ORACLE_HOME% on Windows:
C:> echo The current ORACLE_HOME is %ORACLE_HOME%
