Are you sure that's the error you're getting?
ORA-12542 has the text TNS:address already in use ad is returned when trying to start a listener.

Debug 101:

Is the database up?

Is the listener running?

Can you connect to the database from SQL*Plus using the same connection details?

If you can connect to the Db through sqlplus then the answer is 'YES'

To check the listener status, from the command prompt:

H:\>lsnrctl status

Ok, DBA 101:

If you created your DB properly, there should be a file LISTENER.ORA in the same directory as your TNSNAMES.ORA

If this is the case, you should be able to use the command

lsnrctl start


to fire up the listener.

If that doesnt' work, or the file isn't there, you'll need to use the Net COnfiguration Assistant (supplied with the install) to set one up.

Check the HOST is correct.
You should be able to go to the command prompt and type
ping admin


and get a non-error response back.
If you don't, then the value of HOST that you're using is probably incorrect.

Check the listener.log file for errors too.

Right - your host is wrong.
It needs to be the address of the machine where the oracle Db is located.

What kind of a language is this?

On-topic: ask your DBA to tell you the required address; even better, ask HIM to set your computer up in order to enable it to connect to the database.

If we assume that ADMIN is the host alias, you'll have to add it to the "hosts" file (located here: C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc). Otherwise, enter its IP address into the TNSNAMES.ORA file.

If the database is running on your local PC, you could use either "localhost" or 127.0.0.1 as the host address.
