I just installed Oracle8i personal edition and am having problems even
connecting to the sample database with the default install.

When I process the connection test, I get the following error:

Attempting to connect using userid:  scott
The test did not succeed.
ORA-12560: TNS:protocol adapter error

There may be an error in the fields entered,
or the server may not be ready for a connection.

When I try to manually start the listener, it gives me an error that
the listener failed to start a dedicated server process.

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance
