Hi,

We have a windows database running on 10.2.0.1 version.    I am trying to clone the database  to a new server , just installed.    We have done the following successfully

  • Unzipped the Oracle home copied from PROD
  • set all the environment variables correctly  (ORACLE_HOME, ORACLE_SID,PATH,TNS_ADMIN)
  • Configure port 1521 using Netca
  • configured tnsnames using netca

When we try to do    sqlplus / as sysdba , we are getting following error


ORA-12560:TNS:protocol adapter error


Note :   we do not have have database yet and I need to restore database from backup.  For this, I have to start an instance in no mount stage.  However, I am not able to get to sqlplus prompt.
