[Oracle 10g 10.1.0.2] TNS:listener does not currently know of service requested in connect

I can connect through sqlplus (and toad) with the following command:

sqlplus scott/tiger /

but I cannot connect with this: sqlplus scott/tiger_at_localhost:1521:cambridg

 I am trying to connect to my database cambridg on my computer (named eclipse).
Where is the problem ? Can anyone help me here ?

This is my tnsnames.ora

# tnsnames.ora Network Configuration File: c:\oracle\product\10.1.0\Db_1\network\admin\tnsnames.ora # Generated by Oracle configuration tools.

CAMBRIDG =
  (DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = ECLIPSE)(PORT = 1521))     (CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVER = DEDICATED)
(SERVICE_NAME = cambridg)

    )
  )

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

    )
  )

And my listener.ora :

# listener.ora Network Configuration File: c:\oracle\product\10.1.0\Db_1\network\admin\listener.ora # Generated by Oracle configuration tools.

SID_LIST_LISTENER =
  (SID_LIST =
    (SID_DESC =
(SID_NAME = PLSExtProc)
(ORACLE_HOME = c:\oracle\product\10.1.0\Db_1)
(PROGRAM = extproc)

    )
  )

LISTENER =
  (DESCRIPTION_LIST =
    (DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =

        (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = IPC)(KEY = EXTPROC))
      )


      (ADDRESS_LIST =


        (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = ECLIPSE)(PORT = 1521))
      )

A tnsping works perfect :

C:\bob>tnsping cambridg

I get the following message:

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

Also, in the services running, I can see that the listener is started and running:
OracleOraDb10g_home1TNSListener

Maybe it has something to do with the other listener, that I cannot start: OracleOraDb10g_home1TNSListenerSID_LIST_LISTENER

Any help would be much appreciated as I am currently stucked with that.

Thanks a lot Received on Sat Jul 30 2005 - 15:14:33 CEST
