Problem with First Connection to Oracle

Hi Guys,

I am new at Oracle and Toad ,as well. I Installed Oracle 10 Ex on my computer local disk/C:(Windows 7) and I tried to connect to database by Toad but it didn’t worked!
I tried to log in as system user with my password and following parameters:

User/Schema:system
Password:******
Database:XE

Connect as : Noramal
Conect Using:XE

The SQLNET Editor in green checked mark
TSNName Editor in green checked mark
BUT: the LDAP Editor is getting RED cross and it’s button is not active!
I got this erroe:
ORA-12154:TSN:could not resolve the connect identifier specified(XE)

I also tried Direct connection method with
Host: Mycomputer
Port:1521
But I did not know what should I enter for Server Name or SID?! so I got this warnning message:
Please enter Host,Port,and SID/Service Name.

This is what I have in tsnname.ora file:

XE =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = Mycomputer)(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVER = DEDICATED)
(SERVICE_NAME = XE)
)
)

EXTPROC_CONNECTION_DATA =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = IPC)(KEY = EXTPROC_FOR_XE))
)
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SID = PLSExtProc)
(PRESENTATION = RO)
)
)

ORACLR_CONNECTION_DATA =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = IPC)(KEY = EXTPROC_FOR_XE))
)
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SID = CLRExtProc)
(PRESENTATION = RO)
)
)

and the sqlnet.ora looks like this:

This file is actually generated by netca. But if customers choose to

install “Software Only”, this file wont exist and without the native

authentication, they will not be able to connect to the database on NT.

SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICES = (NTS)

could you please let me know what is wrong and how I can connect with Toad to oracle.I also have to say that I am able to connect to my database with Oracle SQL Developer.

Best regards
Behrouz

Hi there

Connections to Oracle databases via TNS are a bit of a pain until you get all the components in the link configured correctly. One issue that is often overlooked is DNS resolution of the system name that is hosting the Oracle database.

If you are just using a single PC for Oracle and Toad then the following options should fix the TNS connection issue:-

If you are using a FIXED IP address for the PC then substitute the IP address for the HOST name in the TNSNAMES file. (example below)

DATA1 =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 192.168.1.5)(PORT = 1522))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVER = DEDICATED)
(SERVICE_NAME = DATA1)
)

If you are using DHCP for you IP address then you need to use IP address 127.0.0.1 and have an entry in the HOSTS file of :- 127.0.0.1 localhost

The TNSNAMES.ora file is found in the (oracle_home)/NETWORK/ADMIN DIRECTORY and the windows hosts file is in the C:/windows/system32/drivers/etc directory.

Hope this fixes your probs.

Hi Catbiter,
Thanks for your help ,however I still have the problem

Not sure if this was resolved – I ran into the same problem but got this fixed
by ensure the install path to TOAD not including any special char such as ( and
… I have 64 bit machine and the path to program files folder end with (x86) and
that dcause the problem!

Hi there

Connections to Oracle databases via TNS are a bit of a pain until you get all
the components in the link configured correctly. One issue that is often
overlooked is DNS resolution of the system name that is hosting the Oracle
database.

If you are just using a single PC for Oracle and Toad then the following options
should fix the TNS connection issue:-

If you are using a FIXED IP address for the PC then substitute the IP address
for the HOST name in the TNSNAMES file. (example below)

DATA1 =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 192.168.1.5)(PORT = 1522))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVER = DEDICATED)
(SERVICE_NAME = DATA1)
)

If you are using DHCP for you IP address then you need to use IP address
127.0.0.1 and have an entry in the HOSTS file of :- 127.0.0.1 localhost

The TNSNAMES.ora file is found in the (oracle_home)/NETWORK/ADMIN DIRECTORY and
the windows hosts file is in the C:/windows/system32/drivers/etc directory.

Hope this fixes your probs.

Toad then the following options should fix the TNS connection issue:- If you are
using a FIXED IP address for the PC then substitute the IP address for the HOST
name in the TNSNAMES file. (example below) DATA1 = (DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 192.168.1.5)(PORT = 1522))
(CONNECT_DATA = (SERVER = DEDICATED) (SERVICE_NAME =
DATA1) ) If you are using DHCP for you IP address then you need to use IP
address 127.0.0.1 and have an entry in the HOSTS file of :- 127.0.0.1
localhost The TNSNAMES.ora file is found in the (oracle_home)/NETWORK/ADMIN
DIRECTORY and the windows hosts file is in the C:/windows/system32/drivers/etc
directory. Hope this fixes your probs. Regards __ Author: Bzehrou Date: Sat Feb

Connections to Oracle databases via TNS are a bit of a pain until you get all
the components in the link configured correctly. One issue that is often
overlooked is DNS resolution of the system name that is hosting the Oracle
database. If you are just using a single PC for Oracle and Toad then the
following options should fix the TNS connection issue:- If you are using a FIXED
IP address for the PC then substitute the IP address for the HOST name in the
TNSNAMES file. (example below) DATA1 = (DESCRIPTION = (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL =
TCP)(HOST = 192.168.1.5)(PORT = 1522)) (CONNECT_DATA = (SERVER = DEDICATED)
(SERVICE_NAME = DATA1) ) If you are using DHCP for you IP address then you need
to use IP address 127.0.0.1 and have an entry in the HOSTS file of :- 127.0.0.1

Hi there

Connections to Oracle databases via TNS are a bit of a pain until you get all
the components in the link configured correctly. One issue that is often
overlooked is DNS resolution of the system name that is hosting the Oracle
database.

If you are just using a single PC for Oracle and Toad then the following options
should fix the TNS connection issue:-

If you are using a FIXED IP address for the PC then substitute the IP address
for the HOST name in the TNSNAMES file. (example below)

DATA1 =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 192.168.1.5)(PORT = 1522))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVER = DEDICATED)
(SERVICE_NAME = DATA1)
)

If you are using DHCP for you IP address then you need to use IP address
127.0.0.1 and have an entry in the HOSTS file of :- 127.0.0.1 localhost

The TNSNAMES.ora file is found in the (oracle_home)/NETWORK/ADMIN DIRECTORY and
the windows hosts file is in the C:/windows/system32/drivers/etc directory.

Hope this fixes your probs.
