Usually a Listener is configured when you install Oracle 8i. If it has not configured you need to create it. If you have net8 assistant use it to create a listener.
Follow these steps:
1> Open Net8 assistant.
2>Click on Listeners and click Edit->Create.
3>Enter a listener name and click OK.
3>Select listening locations from the pop-down menu.
4>Click on add address
5>Give the Host name(On which oracle is installed), port number(usually 1521).
6>select Database services and click add database.
7>Specify database name, oracle home(ora81) and sid(instance name).
8> Save network configuration.
Hope this helps. If you need assistance mail me.
Bye...Naveen.

Hi Naveen,
I configured the Listener as u told. Still I m unable to open SQL*Plus.
This is error description:
12560, 00000, "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.
********************
Also, then again I reconfigured the net service name by giving it name 'netbase' & specifying it to use protocol IPC(for local database in PC). But while testing it is giving following error:
Initializing first test to use userid: scott, password: tiger
Attempting to connect using userid: scott
The test did not succeed.
ORA-12560: TNS:protocol adapter error
There may be an error in the fields entered,
or the server may not be ready for a connection.
********************
So, kindly suggest me if i m making some mistake in configuring net service. I m using Oracle 8i on standalone PC.
Sachin

Hi,
Did you start the listener service after you have configured a new listener. If it still does not work mail your dbname and instance name. I'll send you a listener file and tnsnames.ora file.try using them. what is your os. and oracle version.

Firstly,
I have installed the Oracle 8i Client which is compatible to Windows 98 from the product list of Oracle 8i Enterprise Edition CD which supports only Win NT.
Secondly,
I want to use it for my desktop PC only, so I gave protocol IPC, with key ORCL. But somewhere giving directory service name, things go went wrong & testing gives TNS Adpater error. I am giving directory service name as the home directory ora81.
Kindly let me know the configuration for single desktop & if I am wrong installing the corresponding product.

Hi Sachin,
As far as i know you cannot install oracle 8i enterprise edition on win98 because it(win 98) is not a server. Check your start menu. You will have only client tools installed like sql*plus, net8 client, net8 assistant etc. Since there is no database at all you cannot connect. Hope i am not wrong. You can do one more think. Open windows explorer. check wheteher folder with this hierarch has been created.
Oracle---admin
ora81
oradata. If these are not there, then there is not database at all. You need to install win98 personal edition to work on. Let me know whether i am right or worng. See even i am starting guy like you. Hope some experts reading this might jumpin to help us. Again let me know what happened.
Regards----Naveen

Put an hash "#" symbol at the beginning of statement
eg. sqlnet.ora
# SQLNET.ORA Network Configuration File: c:\oracle9i\network\admin\sqlnet.ora
# Generated by Oracle configuration tools.
#SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICES= (NTS)
#NAMES.DIRECTORY_PATH= (TNSNAMES, ONAMES, HOSTNAME)
