    Problem with listener (ORA-12514) after shut down and re-start

    Hi,

    I have installed Oracle XE version 10.2.0 in Windows XP professional.

    After installing the database, in the listener I could see the service XE registered with it.

    "Service "XE" has 1 instance(s).
    Instance "XE", status READY, has 1 handler(s) for this service...
    Service "XEXDB" has 1 instance(s).
    Instance "XE", status READY, has 1 handler(s) for this service...
    Service "XE_XPT" has 1 instance(s).
    Instance "XE", status READY, has 1 handler(s) for this service..."

    But once I shutdown the window machine and restart it, the problem status.

    When I try to connect the system, ORA-12514 error message is thrown.
    SQL> connect username/password@XE
    ERROR:
    ORA-12514: TNS:listener does not currently know of service requested in connect
    descriptor

    (a) The database service (OracleServiceXE) has started automatically and is running.
    (b) The listener.ora [C:\oraclexe\app\oracle\product\10.2.0\server\NETWORK\ADMIN] has the correct setup.
    ============
    SID_LIST_LISTENER =
    (SID_LIST =
    (SID_DESC =
    (SID_NAME = PLSExtProc)
    (ORACLE_HOME = C:\oraclexe\app\oracle\product\10.2.0\server)
    (PROGRAM = extproc)
    )
    (SID_DESC =
    (SID_NAME = CLRExtProc)
    (ORACLE_HOME = C:\oraclexe\app\oracle\product\10.2.0\server)
    (PROGRAM = extproc)
    )
    )

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

    DEFAULT_SERVICE_LISTENER = (XE)
    ============

    (b) If I check the listener status, XE service is not registered.

    =============
    LSNRCTL> status
    Connecting to (DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=IPC)(KEY=EXTPROC1)))

    Instance "PLSExtProc", status UNKNOWN, has 1 handler(s) for this service...
    The command completed successfully
    =============

    The strange thing is the service XE was registered before shuting down the system.

    Other point to be noted is, once the error message comes, if I un-install Orace XE and re-install it, then while checking the listener status, service XE is registered. Again, after shut down and re-start, it is gone.

    Can somebody let me know where the problem lies.

    Thanks.

    Yes, the database is running.

    PS: To double check, I even started the database manually. It was already running.

    C:\oraclexe\app\oracle\product\10.2.0\server\BIN>net start OracleMTSRecoveryServ

    Talking

    What about the tnsnames.ora file?

    Check it out!

    I also faced the same issue...

    I also faced the same issue two days back. I struggled for one whole day.. many times a restarted my PC, disabled firewall, started Oracle services manually but no luck...

    After one day.. i again restarted the system, turned of my pc's firewall protection, closed some processes from task manager like blackice, blackiced, msnmsgr etc, started the OracleServiceXE and OracleXETNSListener services manually since they were not getting started automaticallly and then my problem was solved.....
