Dear all
I have a strange issue
I installed local database on my laptop

that pc is inside a domain
when i remove the network cable and
connect using the sid defined in the tnsnames
sys/sys@ora10g as sysdba
it gives me that errors
ORA-12560: TNS:protocol adapter error

to resolve this problem i should connect like that
sys/sys as sysdba without the sid

but i don't want to connect in this way
because i have work must be done from home on that local
database so i don't want to connect with network
sys/sys@ora10g as sysdba
and without network
sys/sys as sysdba

i want to be always connect
sys/sys@ora10g as sysdba

is there any issue i could do to reslove this problem

>ORA-12560 can result from OS/Networking mis-configuration.
How does system obtain IP# when NOT connected to the Network?
What is IP# when system not connected to the network?
Oracle is victim & not the culprit.
Problem root cause & fix is external to Oracle.

ORA-12560: TNS:protocol adapter error
 *Cause: A generic protocol adapter error occurred.
 *Action: Check addresses used for proper protocol specification. Before
 reporting this error, look at the error stack and check for lower level
 transport errors. For further details, turn on tracing and reexecute the
 operation. Turn off tracing when the operation is complete.


Set TRACE_DIRECTORY_CLIENT, TRACE_FILE_CLIENT and TRACE_LEVEL_CLIENT and restart the operation and post the trace (in a formatted way: read How to use [code] tags and make your code easier to read; make sure that lines of code do not exceed 80 characters when you format; use the "Preview Message" button to verify).

Regards
Michel

Could you have a problem with name resolution? Your listener is configured with a hostname, not with the IP address. Does that still resolve when you rip out the network cable?

If it were my environment, this is what I would do:
1. Stop the listener you have running now.
2. Create a new listener, listening on 127.0.0.1:1521
3. In the database instance,
alter system set local_listener='(address=(protocol=tcp)(host=127.0.0.1)(port=1521))';
alter system set service_names=ora10g;
alter system register;
4. sqlplus scott/tiger@127.0.0.1:1521/ora10g

And of course enable tracing, as Michel said.
