Hi there,

Very recently I downloaded the TOAD Professional Edition on my Win 98 system and tried to connect it to ORACLE8i Personal Edition on the same. But the TOAD shows the error message "ORA12541: TNS:No Listener" when I try to login to the TOAD while connecting it to the ORACLE8i on same system.
Also I tried to create a listener configuration using ORACLE's Net8 Configuraton Assistant and sure enough it is adding the created listener info into LISTENER.ORA in OracleNetworkAdmin folder. Even then the TOAD says no listener. I tried copying the newly created listener content into TNSNAMES.ORA also. Hunn, no use at all.
Any idea, what is going wrong with it? First of all, can't I create a listener on Windows 98? If so, what is wrong then? Where I am loosing the loop.
Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.
Su.

Hello Mahesh,

Doing the same (starting a LSNRCTL), can I connect my PowerBuilder6.0 to Oracle? Once after started LSNRCTL, I logged into powerbuilder with an ODBC connection to ORACLE. Even though I have created the data source with the ORACLE service name, I am not able to access the ORACLE data through powerbuilder. I logged on with a DB profile, which also has the info about data source, immediately a message window appears saying "catalog tables could not be created, not available for use". Even then, I click OK and create a table (in PB itself) and try to access it, again it says, "Table MYTEST has no columns, possible invalid TABLE format".
What is going wrong? Any advice or help?

Thanks in advance.
