Hi, We are trying to make duplicate database on same machine (WIN2K) using RMAN. so we created the entry for SID in listener.ora and tnsnames.ora.. Also we created password file as: orapwd file=PWDV901DUP.ora password=manager entries=10
But when we try to connect to database we get error as: SET ORACLE_SID=DBDUP E:\ora\ora92\database>SQLPLUS "SYS/sys AS SYSDBA" SQL*Plus: Release 9.2.0.1.0 - Production on Mon Jun 24 11:39:45 2002 Copyright (c) 1982, 2002, Oracle Corporation. All rights reserved. ERROR: ORA-12560: TNS:protocol adapter error What are the other steps we need to configure??
