Solved the "sqlplus " problem - it wasn 't anything to do with setting =
ORACLE_SID (tried that - didn 't work). The trick is to set the "LOCAL " =
system variable to the name of the required instance. Setting a system =
variable made it permanent, but the same affect could be achieved =
temporarily in a DOS window by typing "set LOCAL=3Dxxxxxx " before typing =
"sqlplus ".
Another thing I never knew (and didn 't know I didn 't know)!
That still hasn 't solved the main problem with Database Upgrade =
Assistant, alas...
Cheers,
Paul

Paul,
This scenario below is because the sid is not set.
If you set oracle_sid=3Dxxxx, and then simply type sqlplus
and enter username/password when prompted, you will not
get ORA-12560 (See ORA-12560.ora-code.com).=20
The other servers must have oracle_sid set.
HTH....../Bob =20
.......... peculiarity on this server that, if I open a DOS
window and simply type "sqlplus ", then I 'm asked for a username and
password, which I supply, and then I get an error message ORA-12560 (See ORA-12560.ora-code.com):
TNS:protocol adapter error.
If however I type "sqlplus myuserid/mypasswd@(protected) ", ,,,,,,,,,,
I suspect=20
=20
