The error messages are helpfully detailed in the Oracle documentation. This is also available at http://tahiti.oracle.com complete with a searchable web form. On unix you can also issue oerr <error number> to get the associated error message.

In your case you get

12545 Connect failed because target host or object does not exist.

I suggest you check your listener configuration carefully to see if the host name/ip addresses are correct.
