Go to Start --  Run--  type   services msc   Select the OracleService name  Right Click  Start   Wait for a while and then your service will start  Then go to your sql command line window and try to connect to your user  I hope you can do that now

Make sure your oracle services are running automatically   Just press Win R  Type services msc in textbox then press O to find oracle services     In your PC name might be like OracleserviceXYZ   Right click on highlighted services

Ensure the OracleService is running  I keep running into this error  but when I go into Services  find OracleServiceXE and manually start it  the problem is resolved  I have it set to start automatically  but sometimes it just seems to stop on its own  at least  I can t find anything I am doing to stop it

You might have set oracle not to start automatically  Goto Start and search for Services  Scroll down and look for OracleServiceORCL  or OracleServiceSID   Double click and change startup type to automatic if it is set as manual

The major issue might be the oracle database itself may not have started  So  you need to manually go via      run command -  services msc   check for OracleXEService surely  it may be disabled      right click go to properties-  set it to Automatic and press Ok  Then   just right click again and start    This will start  your database making you to connect to it  Finally  In sqlplus command line   connect as sysdba  enter username as admin  then press enter  you ll be connected

You are getting ORA-12560  TNS protocol adaptor error becuase you didn t start the Oracle database   You can start Oracle database like this  From START-  select Oracle Database 11g Express Edition  11g or what ever your database type you can find this from All Programs   Then inside this folder  there is a DB icon with green color spot  It is the Start Service icon Click it Then it will take some seconds and start the service    After getting the above message again try to connect through the SQL plus command line by giving user name and password

Enter SQL Plus with   sqlplus  nolog   And then   connect sys  lt SID gt  AS sysdba

User · Answer

Try typing all of this on the command line   sqlplus   as sysdba   As what you are doing is starting sqlplus and then using sys as sysdba as the user-name which is incorrect as that is not a valid user  By using the above command Oracle is using your system login credentials to access the db  Also  I would confirm that the sqlplus executable you are running is the correct one by checking your path - ensure it is in the bin of the server installation directories
