Hi,

I tried setting up the SQL*Plus environment as suggested here:

http://www.orafaq.org/faqplus.htm#USE

I typed in

Click on "Start" -> "Run" and enter "cmd"
C:> set ORACLE_SID=orcl
C:> sqlplus scott/tiger

and the output I got was this:

ERROR:
ORA-12560: TNS:protocol adapter error

What is the problem? And how to resolve this?

Thanks in advance!

Eric

oracle serice is started or not .you can see the status of both
in services
