Hi!

I have re-installed Personal Oracle 7.2.2.3.1 on Win98 but I receive the following error when attempting to start the listener:

TNS-12560: TNS:protocol adapter error
TNS-00530: Protocol adapter error

Before, the listener auto-started without errors on database startup. I have been trying to get this to work for quite a while without any success. Please help me..!!

I have the following configurations (generated by "SQL*Net Easy Configuration"):

.... Sorry for the long listing. ;) ....

Before I reinstalled PO7 and Win98, everything used to work perfectly and I have no idea what I'm doing wrong this time. I would greatly appreciate your help.

Please note the following:

Connecting with HOST NAME of "2:" works fine with SQL*Plus (so I guess the problem isn't in the database itself...?)
I am not connected to a LAN (but I have a net card installed with TCP/IP binding).
I have installed using the "Complete Installation" option (including SQL*NET TCP/IP stuff)

Thanks!!!

Jessica
