I also got this problem once and i solved it by adding a String value to Registry

try this:

open "Run" command and type "regedit.exe"
and navigate to this key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ORACLE\HOME0
right-click on HOME0 and select "New -> String Value"
and rename it to USE_SHARED_SOCKET and set the value to "TRUE".

hope this helps
