Oracle Database Discussions

Hi,
I cant able to connect to my local DB instance. Oracle service for DB instance will be started running when the system boots automatically.
I faced this problem before, I was instructed to boot my system without network connection. It worked for few days. Suddenly I cant able to connect to my local DB instance again, even though I am booting my system without network connection.


This is the configuration I have in tnsnames.ora in my local machine.I have the host as localhost, because local machine is laptop and IP will change periodically.

CSS =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = localhost)(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVER = DEDICATED)
(SERVICE_NAME = CSS)
)
)


LISTERNER Status:

Connecting to (DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=IPC)(KEY=EXTPROC1)))
