(Sorry, similar post did not solve my issue)

Ive recently installed Oracle 10g on my Windows XP and was able to connect. When i did a shutdown immediate and tried to connect again as a sysdba i get an error:

ORA-12514: TNS:listener does not currently know of service requested in connect descriptor

Did a few basic checks like Oracle services, listener and all seems up and running. As im studyin Oracle 10g currently, please explain me in simple language meand guide to what i should do to resolve this problem. Any help is much appreciated!

Below is my TNS, listener details for your reference

TNSNAMES

ORCL =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = localhost)(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVER = DEDICATED)
(SERVICE_NAME = orcl)
)
)

EXTPROC_CONNECTION_DATA =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = IPC)(KEY = EXTPROC1))
)
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SID = PLSExtProc)
(PRESENTATION = RO)
)
)
===================

LISTENER

SID_LIST_LISTENER =
(SID_LIST =
(SID_DESC =
(SID_NAME = PLSExtProc)
(ORACLE_HOME = C:\oracle\product\10.2.0\db_1)
(PROGRAM = extproc)
)
)

LISTENER =
(DESCRIPTION_LIST =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = IPC)(KEY = EXTPROC1))
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = localhost)(PORT = 1521))
)
)
================================

Using 'conn sys@orcl as sysdba
password: sysdba'

Hi
One reason is default listener registration is DYNAMIC you have to change DYNAMIC to STATIC.
edit your listener.ora file like below 

SID_LIST_LISTENER =
(SID_LIST =
(SID_DESC =
(SID_NAME = PLSExtProc)
(ORACLE_HOME = C:\oracle\product\10.1.0\Db_1)
(PROGRAM = extproc)
)
[B](SID_DESC = 
(SID_NAME = orcl)
(ORACLE_HOME = C:\oracle\product\10.1.0\Db_1) )[/B])

C:\>LSNRCTL stop
C:\>REM WAIT FEW SECONDS
C:\>LSNRCTL start

Thanks for your reply. I did exactly what u mentioned. I am still not able to connect to isql plus. It hangs up. Even in commnad promt when i connect as 'conn sys@orcl as sysdba' and enter my password it just stops there without a reply. Is it because I changed my SID_Name to 'orcl'?

Now im getting the below error when connecting to iSQL Plus.

Is it because I need to edit my TNS file too as done with listener file??

Ok it seems the ORA-28547 error has resolved by itself. I still get the ORA 12154 error when i connect to iSQL Plus. It seems very obvious that when I bypass the listener by using 'conn / as sysdba' in command prompt I am able to connect. So when connecting via iSQL Plus it uses the info in Listener file to connect to the database. So for some reason it does register to DB by default when installed.

Is there no quick solution to this. Its very annoying.

Like u said to register using dynamic info by changed my SID_name from "orcl". By doing this, when connection it hangs in limgo mode,which means it hangs without a reply from service.

======
LISTENER ORA file

ORCL =
