Are you accessing your database remotely??

if yes then how do you login to oracle?

If you are not using a password file, then you use operating system authentication for sysdba access, meaning you are a member of the ora_dba (on windows) group.

Note the above used the listener to connect, because I specified @orcl. If I just used / as sysdba instead, then it would connect locally without the listener, and use the oracle_sid environment variable (on windows that is in the registry).

Problem is resolved i don't know how. I was using password file because my instance started thru spfile and in that my remote_login_passwordfile was set to 'SHARED'.

It was not remote instance as its running on same machine.

I just restarted my system due to some reason and tried to connect to sys user and it connected.
