Home -> Community -> Usenet -> c.d.o.server -> ORA 12541: no listener
Hello,
this may a trivial question for the advanced user, but to the beginner it's seems to be confusing to find the right answer. So here we are:
lately I've installed Ora 8.1.7. PE on my local machine, using Win2000.
Each time I try to connect to the databases via SQL Worksheet or any of the other given tools it works only fine if I'm on the internet. If not the connection will be refused with a simple message "ORA 12541 TMS: no listener".
What is reason for this behavior? Do I need a local DNS?
I've tried to configure a listener via NET8 but i didn't work.
Can anybody give me a short help how to get the listener work local without steady connection to the internet?
Thanks in advance!
Marc
