First make sure ORCL is your tns service name.
Check listener.ora or in your window services panel.
Start it from windows services
or manually
lsnrctl start Listener_name

Thanks Mahesh

Yesterday night I struggled a lot to fix it. But could not fix. I just shut my system. To day morning when I opened the system it's working.....

Yesterday the oracle DB console and listener in the services were down when i tried to start them from services those were failing. But these are started automatically when I started my system today morning.

Does any one have any idea what wud be the reason for this?

Thanks
Ridhi

Classic Windoze (mi)behavior or gremlins; which is redundant.

Hi,
I have seen this behaviour. The Windows platform does not start the instance...automagically. Strange.

There are some theories that it has to do with some privilegies somewhere, but Oracle Support did not give me any clues.

I will reinitiate the support issue to them. Now, that I know other people have the same questions.


Best Regards,
Lars Sjöström
PS I just start the instance every time this happens. The error message is ... well...erroneous.
