  =================================

  Suppose you have the following in your tnsnames.ora:

  Larry =
  (DESCRIPTION =
  (ADDRESS_LIST =
  (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = myhost) (PORT = 1521))
  )
  (CONNECT_DATA =
  (SERVICE_NAME = curley)
  )
  )

  Now, when you issue a connect, say like this:

  $> sqlplus scott/tiger@larry

  TNS will appear in your tnsnames.ora for an entry called "larry". Then, tns sends a request to (PORT = 1521) on (HOST = myhost) to aid (PROTOCOL = TCP), requesting a connection to (SERVICE_NAME = curley).

  Where's (HOST = myhost) on the network? When the request is passed to tns to the next layer in the network stack, the name "myhost" resolves to an IP address, either via a file 'hosts' local, through DNS, or possibly other mechanisms being used less. Alternatively, you can hard-code the IP (HOST = 123.456.789.101) in the tnsnames.ora.

  Then, the request arrives at port 1521 myhost. If all goes well, there is a listener on myhost configured to listen on port 1521, and this listener knows SERVICE_NAME = curley. If so, you'll be connected.

  A few important points.

  First, the listener is a process only the side server. It's all in life seeks applications for reception for connections to the databases and set up these connections. Once the connection is established, the listener is out of the picture. It creates the connection. It does not support the connection. A listener, linking an oracle of the House, listening on a single port, use multiple instances of database in several versions of several houses. It is unnecessary complexity to try to have several headphones. It's like the telephone company, to build a separate table for each customer.

  Secondly, the tnsnames.ora file is a client-side problem. Its purpose is to address resolution - the equivalent of the 'hosts' file tns further to the bottom of the network stack. The only reason it exists on a host computer is because this machine also can run client processes.

  What can go wrong?

  First, there may not be an entry for 'larry' in your tnsnames file. In this case, you get "ORA-12154: TNS: could not resolve the connect identifier specified" no need to go looking for a problem on the host, with the listener, etc.. If you cannot place a phone call because you do not know the number (cannot find your phonebook (tnsnames.ora) or can not find the party looking for listed in it (no entry for larry)) you don't look at problems at the switchboard.

  Perhaps the entry for larry was found, but myhost could not be resolved to an IP address (for example there is no entry for myhost in the local hosts file). This will mean by "ORA-12545: Connect failed because target host or object does not exist.

  Maybe there is an entry for MyServer in the local hosts file, but it specified a bad IP address. This will mean by "ORA-12545: Connect failed because target host or object does not exist.

  Maybe the INVESTIGATION period was good, but there is no listener running: "ORA-12541: TNS:no listener.

  Maybe the INVESTIGATION period was good, there is a listener to myhost, but he is listening on a different port. "ORA-12560: TNS:protocol adapter error.

  Maybe the INVESTIGATION period was good, there is a listener to myhost, listening on the specified port, it's unknown SERVICE_NAME = curley. "ORA-12514: TNS:listener is not currently of service requested in connect descriptor.

  Based on what I read here: I found that the server has a PWDmySID.ora file in % ORACLE_HOME%\database. I've updated the %ORACLE_HOME%\database\initmySID.ora file to include the REMOTE_LOGIN_PASSWORDFILE = EXCLUSIVE line and have restarted the database.
  
  Any thoughts? Apparently I do a kind of record of syntax errors, but I don't know what it is? :) Thank you.

  How can I get SQL * more to connect to my database of Apex? By using the username and password I use to connect to Apex does not (ORA-01017). What should I do to connect to my db Apex?
  
  Thank you
  Kim

  Connection string is "connect username/password@database".

  The analysis schema is a database account, that's why you can log on to SQL * more like that.

  This allows to get the database name

  select instance_name from v$instance;
  

  And if you forgot the password for the PT

  alter user PT identified by 'your_new_password';

• bad connect to Sql * more via command and cannot log on to the designer (need for connection string)

  I installed Oracle Developer with success, but having bad connect to Sql more than command line, also unable to connect via the developer tools, I get a TNS: Connect timeout occurred. This happens also for the "Plus" Sql for Windows.

  

  
  

  However, I can connect via the Sql Plus command window when it is executed from "Start-> all programs", but not when I first run the command window:

  

  
  

  I have a good Oracle 11 g install on Windows 7 and a good developer Sql install so I can connect to databases, but something does not work when you try to connect through these tools. Although Sql Plus works when called from 'Start-> all programs'
  

  sqlplus scott/tiger - don't use SQL * Net, you can connect like this even with the listener is stopped.

  Developer SQL can ONLY connect using SQL * Net & can be blocked by the firewall

  to connect using sqlplus & SQL * Net, you need to invoke it as below

  the first command should work without password for all users group ORA_DBA.

• Connect to the database with SQL * more: is TNSNAMES. ORA used?

  Hello

  We have a local database called DEV01 and a copy of this database in a data center. To be able to connect to both databases, the TNSNAMES file. ORA

  on the local database server (not the one in the data center) has the following entries:

  / * Entry for the local database * /.

  DEV01_local, DEV01_local. WORLD =
  (DESCRIPTION =
  (ADDRESS_LIST =
  (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = server01) (PORT = 1521))
  )
  (CONNECT_DATA =
  (SERVER = DEDICATED)
  (SID = DEV01)
  )
  )

  / * Entry for the database in the data center * /.

  DEV01, DEV01. WORLD =
  (DESCRIPTION =
  (ADDRESS_LIST =
  (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = server02) (PORT = 1521))
  )
  (CONNECT_DATA =
  (SERVER = DEDICATED)
  (SID = DEV01)
  )
  )

  When I connect to the local database server, I set the Oracle environment as follows:

  export ORACLE_SID = DEV01

  export PATH=/opt/oracle/app/oracle/product/9.2.0/bin:$PATH

  export ORACLE_HOME=/opt/oracle/app/oracle/product/9.2.0

  Now I start SQL * more as follows:

  Oracle # > sqlplus user/user

  SQL > select instance_name, host_name from v$ instance;

  INSTANCE_NAME HOST_NAME

  ---------------- ----------------------------------------------------------------

  SERVER01 DEV01

  As the SID is on two databases of the same (DEV01) I really don't understand how Oracle decides which of the SQL databases * more connects to.

  Is it the entry in the TNSNAMES file. ORA?

  But when I start SQL * more as follows:

  Oracle # > sqlplus user/user@DEV01_local

  SQL > select instance_name, host_name from v$ instance;

  INSTANCE_NAME HOST_NAME

  ---------------- ----------------------------------------------------------------

  SERVER01 DEV01

  or

  Oracle # > sqlplus user/user@DEV01

  SQL > select instance_name, host_name from v$ instance;

  INSTANCE_NAME HOST_NAME

  ---------------- ----------------------------------------------------------------

  DEV01 server02

  everything is as expected.

  Does anyone know who is the chosen database when just to connect with 'sqlplus user/user' (without the @DEV01 or @DEV01_local)?

  Any help will be appreciated!

  Rgds

  Jan

  When you connect to the local database that is connected to the server01, you need only specify the sid in the environment, in this case, Oracle tnsnames file to connect, actually uses, it uses any of the listener.  It uses what is called a connection needed.  It is purely a side connection server, and as long as the sid is located in the environment resolves to a database running on that server, you will be get connected.

  When you connect using the @connect_descriptor, like you second case, then Oracle will use the configured naming, including tnsnames, methods to solve the 'real' database  In this case, the auditor is required to create the connection to the database.

  I want to upgrade from the Apex to the latest version if you need to run SQLPlus scripts... Impossible to connect, get the error message in the title.

• Database demo of vision: how to access the database through SQL * more?

  I'm totally new in this space, so forgive my beginner questions.

  What I want to do, is to integrate EBS with APEX. To get there I downloaded (of delivery) and installed the Vision database unique node in a VirtualBox. To do this, I followed this video on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8JgxMDPsd6s

  Now I want to install APEX and for this I need to access my database as SYS. Now for my questions:

  1. How can I use SQL * more in the VirtualBox?

  2. What is the default password for SYS with this demo database?

  Thanks, Alex

  File under $ORACLE_HOME and the owner is the user 'oracle '.

  You will need to source the file VISION_ebs.env , and then deliver "env | fate"and you should see the set env variables. You can connect as sysdba.

  Thank you

  I know Ipconfig in the command windows... and I know the difference between the client and the server computer. I'm doing a simple test that is to know if there is an ip address any available when you have a client and a server running on the same computer

  The server will see IP address of the client in this case if the client-server connection has been made by IP. A local connection using CPI (direct process-to-process communication). No IP involved. And so the server does not recognize the customer as a client IP.

  Example:

  // local connection that does not use TCP/IP
  /usr/lib/oracle/xe> sqlplus "/ as sysdba"

  CLIENT_IP
  ---------------
  
  SQL> exit
  

  Only when the client is an IP connection, the server has the means to determine the IP address of the client. For example

  // force a TCP/IP connection via the Listener via localhost
  /usr/lib/oracle/xe> sqlplus scott/tiger@"(DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)(HOST=127.0.0.1)(PORT=1521)) (CONNECT_DATA=(SID=vlk)))"

  by the way your syntax

  ! ipfconfig> 
  

  does not work, it gives the following errors below

  It depends on where run you it from. This command is intended for SQL * more and gives instructions to create a child process that calls the operating system command line. For example

  SQL> ! /sbin/ifconfig eth0
  eth0      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 70:71:bc:ac:3d:49
            inet addr:10.251.93.30  Bcast:10.251.93.255  Mask:255.255.255.0

  SQL>
  

  This isn't a PL/SQL statement (language server).

  Note that all side code Server (SQL and PL/SQL) is sent by SQL * more to the server process. In addition, SQL * Plus itself has a primitive vocabulary control and these commands it runs on the client.

  This is why I pointed to the possible confusion of client-server, because there is a very clear and definitive separating SQL * more and its commands and the Oracle server and its languages SQL and PL/SQL.
