how to connect oracle server with emacs?

Question

I want to connect to the server with Emacs. I found this link : EmacsWiki:sqlPlus

I did what was described there and added the following lines to my .emacs file:

(require 'tabbar)
(require 'ide-skel)
(require 'sqlplus)

When I try to M-x - "sql-oracle" it asks me to enter "User: ", "Password: ", and "Database: ", but I don't know "database", all I have is this data:

IP (Host Name): #######
Port: ####
SID: orcl
UserName: ####
Password: ####

How can I make emacs ask me to fill only (and all of) this data?

You can connect to the Oracle using M-x sqlplus. Then you give a connection string like user/password@SID

If it doesn't work then try to connect to Oracle using sqlplus from the command prompt.

And check the file Tnsnames.ora.
