1 New Member
Hi ALL,
This is my first post in this forum.
I have installed oracle8i on my home machine.I am using Windows XP OS. When iam installing it asks for hostname , i dont know what to be entered there.
What all to be set in tnsnames file. Also is it possible to successfully install oracle 8i on Windows XP?


Also please tell me all the changes to be made, if any in sqlnet file , host file etc. What enviornment variable is to be set?
It will be better if any1 send me these files, so that sql* plus works on my local machine.

Whenever i try to login , it gives "oracle 12560 protocol adapter error"

Please tell me from scratch. I am expectind detailed reply.thanks in advance
