Re: ORA-01034: Oracle not Available

Sybrand,

Thanks for the response! I checked the strtorcl.cmd file and it has not changed in over a year. The last time I used Oracle was just a few months ago, and everything was working fine then.

As to the listener.log file, here's the latest entry:

vvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvv
TNSLSNR80 for 32-bit Windows: Version 8.0.4.0.0 - Production on 28-JUN-00 15:04:30

(c) Copyright 1997 Oracle Corporation. All rights reserved.

System parameter file is D:\orant\NET80\admin\listener.ora Log messages written to D:\orant\NET80\log\listener.log

Listening on: (ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=ipc)(PIPENAME=\\.\pipe\oracle.worldipc))
Listening on: (ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=ipc)(PIPENAME=\\.\pipe\ORCLipc))
Listening on: (ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=ipc)(PIPENAME=\\.\pipe\EXTPROC0ipc))
Listening on: (ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=nmp)(PIPENAME=\\JOHNNY\pipe\ORAPIPE))
Attempted to listen on:
(DESCRIPTION=(CONNECT_TIMEOUT=10)(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)(HOST=johnny)(PORT=1521)))

TNS-12545: Connect failed because target host or object does not exist  TNS-12560: TNS:protocol adapter error
  TNS-00515: Connect failed because target host or object does not exist

   32-bit Windows Error: 49: Unknown system error
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

I can't find any reference to the TNS-12545 error in any of the Oracle documentation. The only other thing I can think of is that the last time I was successfully in Oracle, I was in the office connected to our internal network. Lately, I've been working out of my home and not connected to the network. But, I can't understand what difference that would make?

Any other ideas?

Thanks again,
John
