I am using Rails 2.3.5 and Oracle 10 as my database, use "oracle_adapter" , and ruby-oci8 to connect to the Oracle host.
I get this exception:

it seems that the connection to Oracle often disconnects. It shows oracle error:**ORA-12541: TNS:no listener**.
How do I fix this?

Best Answer
At first you should use oracle_enhanced adapter as original oracle adapter is not supported anymore. And also I recommend to use latest ruby-oci8 version 2.0.3. And also check which Oracle client version are you using - I recommend Oracle Instant Client 10.2.0.4 or later
But if you get ORA-12541: TNS:no listener error then it seems that the issue could be in network connectivity to database or some issue on Oracle server side. But please try oracle_enhanced adapter and latest ruby-oci8 version and tell if it fixes your problem.
