Ora-01034

Hi folks, I just installed a oracle 11g on a linux enterprise server, everything looks fine but i can't run any SQL command. i get this error:

SQL> select * from v$instance
2 ;
select * from v$instance
*
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-01034: ORACLE not available
Process ID: 0
Session ID: 0 Serial number: 0

but i can login to sql using $ sqlplus as /sysdba
