How to access Oracle database over network?

I am trying to accessing my Oracle database over Network. I have Google a lot and found many solutions, but those doesn't work for me.

The problem is that, I want to access my Oracle Database from One Computer to another Computer over my Local Network.

What I did is....

  1. I found a Solution to modify listener.ora file with

(DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)(HOST=dbp.devProject.com)(PORT=1521)))

When I modify this file and tried to run and access the Database nothing will happens, and it throws an Error, the port number you have specified is used by another listener, so i have changed port Number but I am not able to access Database. 2. I have configure a new listener with the help of oracle's tool Net Manager, which made a Listener for me, but it does not make accessible database over Network.

Here Some required results.

  1. lsnrctl status : Listener using listener name LISTENER has already been started.
  2. Connection String : jdbc:oracle:thin:@dbp.devProject.com:4541:myDB
  3. Database Version :
    1. Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition Release 11.2.0.1.0 - 64bit Production
    2. PL/SQL Release 11.2.0.1.0 - Production
    3. CORE 11.2.0.1.0 Production
    4. TNS for 64-bit Windows: Version 11.2.0.1.0 - Production
    5. NLSRTL Version 11.2.0.1.0 - Production

Solution

  • Whenever you encounter this kind of errors while creating remote access for you database, follow these steps beforehand.

    1. Create a Listener using Net Manager tool of Oracle or create it Manually.
    2. After generating Listener, check out "listener.ora" [Located : ORACLE_INSTALLED_DIR\product\11.2.0\dbhome_1\NETWORK\ADMIN] file, for your entry. (is there any Entry for the Listener which you have created just before. If you found your Entry than and than do next steps otherwise do it from FIRST step.)
    3. If you found the Entry for your Listener, Open Command Prompt and fire command lsnrctl status. This will give you all currently running Listeners List, find out the one which you created just before.
    4. Check out the Host Name and Port Number for your Listener.
    5. Generate the Connection String as per the details you found in lsnrctl status
    6. Connect with Database, and You can access the Database from anywhere in your Network.
