Connect to Oracle DB using sqlplus

I am using below command in Unix environment to connect to Oracle database:

sqlplus test/test@'(DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS_LIST=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)(HOST=hostname.com )(PORT=1521)))(CONNECT_DATA=(SID=mysid))'

But I am getting below error:

Use SQL*Plus to execute SQL, PL/SQL and SQL*Plus statements.

Usage 1: sqlplus -H | -V

    -H             Displays the SQL*Plus version and the
                   usage help.
    -V             Displays the SQL*Plus version.

Usage 2: sqlplus [ [<option>] [{logon | /nolog}] [<start>] ]

  <option> is: [-C <version>] [-L] [-M "<options>"] [-R <level>] [-S]

Please help me where I am doing mistake in using the command.

try this: sqlplus USER/PW@//hostname:1521/SID

sqlplus username/password@database

Eg:

sqlplus hr/hr@orcl

Easy way (using XE):

1). Configure your tnsnames.ora

XE =
  (DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = HOST.DOMAIN.COM)(PORT = 1521))
    (CONNECT_DATA =
      (SERVER = DEDICATED)
      (SERVICE_NAME = XE)
    )
  )

You can replace HOST.DOMAIN.COM with IP address, the TCP port by default is 1521 (ckeck it) and look that name of this configuration is XE

2). Using your app named sqlplus:

sqlplus SYSTEM@XE

SYSTEM should be replaced with an authorized USER, and put your password when prompt appear

3). See at firewall for any possibilities of some blocked TCP ports and fix it if appear

Different ways to connect Oracle Database from Unix user are:

[oracle@OLE1 ~]$ sqlplus scott/tiger

[oracle@OLE1 ~]$ sqlplus scott/tiger@orcl

[oracle@OLE1 ~]$ sqlplus scott/tiger@192.168.244.128:1521/orcl

[oracle@OLE1 ~]$ sqlplus scott/tiger@//192.168.244.128:1521/orcl

[oracle@OLE1 ~]$ sqlplus "scott/tiger@(DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)(HOST=ole1)(PORT=1521))(CONNECT_DATA=(SERVER=DEDICATED)(SERVICE_NAME=orcl)))"

if you want to connect with oracle database

open sql prompt
connect with sysdba for XE- conn / as sysdba for IE- conn sys as sysdba
then start up database by below command startup;

once it get start means you can access oracle database now. if you want connect another user you can write conn username/password e.g. conn scott/tiger; it will show connected........

tnsping xe --if you have installed express edition
tnsping orcl --or if you have installed enterprise or standard edition then try to run
--if you get a response with your description then you will write the below command
sqlplus  --this will prompt for user
hr --user that you have created or use system
password --inputted at the time of user creation for hr, or put the password given at the time of setup for system user
hope this will connect if db run at your localhost.
--if db host in a remote host then you must use tns name for our example orcl or xe
try this to connect remote
hr/pass...@orcl or hr/pass...@xe --based on what edition you have installed

As David Aldridge explained, your parentheses should start right after the sqlplus command, so it should be:

sqlplus 'test/test@(DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS_LIST=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)(HOST=hostname.com )(PORT=1521)))(CONNECT_DATA=(SID=mysid))'

it would be something like this

sqlplus -s /nolog  <<-!
connect ${ORACLE_UID}/${ORACLE_PWD}@${ORACLE_DB};
whenever sqlerror exit sql.sqlcode;
set pagesize 0;
set linesize 150;
spool <query_output.dat> APPEND
@$<input_query.dat>
spool off;
exit;
!

here

ORACLE_UID=<user name>
ORACLE_PWD=<password>
ORACLE_DB=//<host>:<port>/<DB name>
