Ora-12560 TNS: protocol adapter error...
Hi ALl:
I saw many raised questions about this Oracle error message. But I cannot find some suitable solutions.
Does anybody there know a fixed solution.
I have installed Oracle 8.1.7 EE and SE on 2 PCs seperately, and both get the error messages when I loged in Server Manager. ( I mean run the 'svrmgrl'). Then it is no problem to connect with internal/manager or so on.)
This error message does not appear on SQL*Plus, and I have the ORACLE_SID in my registry. And the databases seem work well.
Any idea for this case?

I have never heard of that conflict arising because you have a registry setting. The reason I do it always is that I have multiple instances on same server and I want to set environment. NO this is not a serious issue...just explicitly set it and you will be Ok. I will look into
conflict between registry setting and setting at command prompt.

I did the exactly what you wrote above to delete the old instance, and used oradim (Oracle 8i) to create a new one. But the error appears when I type svrmgrl in DOS window without doing the 'set oracle_sid=mysid'. Because I have set oracle_sid in registry LOCAL_MACHINE../../softwar
Then i did what you told me, i.e. first
set oracle_sid=mysid
svrmgrl
Then I was told SET is illegal. Because I think I have one in registry. Then I deleted it. and run the two lines again. It works. But it is annoying, I should run them every time when I start server manager.
Is that serious?
