Hi list, i would like to know how you guys do to startup oracle9i in winxp
without using the windows services. I'm trying with a cmd window using:
 
sqlplus / nolog  -- That's ok
 
connect / as sysdba -- Getting this error
ERROR:
ORA-12560: TNS:protocol adapter error
 
I've noticed that once the db is running (started with services) i can
connect ïn a cmd window using the above command.
 
Any clues??
 
Regards
GBA
