I don't think this will work.  Sqlplus will not work without the services 
running.

GBA, another way to do this:

When the database is up, do the following:

Net start | more

Look for the name of the Oracle service that is running.  It will be something 
like OracleServiceSID.

From the Dos prompt, you can:

Net start OracleServiceSID

You can also

Net stop OracleServiceSID.

Hope this helps.

Tom

Hi,

1. Set ORACLE_SID and ORACLE_HOME on command prompt
2. sqlplus
3. startup pfile='/path/to/oracle/prameter/file.ora'


Its been a while i worked on windows database, but i guess this should allow
you to start the database.

PS: Try "tnsping <tns-alias-to-your-oraclesid>" to see if your TNS setup is 
fine.

Regards,
Madhu

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
