I have recently installed Oracle Enterprise Server
ver 8.0.4. I can connect to the instance using SQL*Plus
on the server by issuing CONNECT user/password. I can execute
queries just fine - it appears like the instance is up and running.
However, if I connect via SQL*Plus using
CONNECT user/password_at_my_net8_alias, I get ORA-01034 Oracle not
available. Documentation for the message states that other messages
will reveal details of the problem, however there are no other
messages. I have setup a Net8 alias in tnsnames.ora appropriately.
Review of the alert.log file reveals nothing. I checked MetaLink
forums to no avail. Any advice?
