Hi All,

Am not able to connect to the database through the SQL Developer. When i am trying to connect the error was as below.

"An error was encountered performing the requested operation:

Listener refused the connection with the following error:
ORA-12505, TNS:listener does not currently know of SID given in connect descriptor


Vendor code 12505"

My Database version : Oracle Database 10g Express Edition
O/S : Windows 7, 32 bit

I have tried to restart the machine and also the OraclceServiceXE service in the services menu, but of no use.


And when i am trying to connect it from the sqlplus prompt...the error was

"C:\>sqlplus santhu/abcd@xe

SQL*Plus: Release 10.2.0.1.0 - Production on Sun Apr 7 14:30:21 2013

Copyright (c) 1982, 2005, Oracle. All rights reserved.

ERROR:
ORA-12514: TNS:listener does not currently know of service requested in connect
descriptor"

Could you please help me where to check for the resolution.

Thanks,
