Frame Relay with OSPF

Hello everyone!
 
I am currently learning OSPF and i have a hard time identifying what went wrong in my configuration. I use  packet tracer to simulate my Frame Relay (1 hub & 2 spokes) with the following condition.
 
1. Hub will be able to ping  Spoke 1 & Spoke 2 but spoke to spoke will not be able to ping each other.
2. Hub will be the DR and there will be no BDR.
 
Here is my configuration for Hub and Spoke 1 and Spoke 2 :

Hub FR Configuration

interface Serial2/0

ip address 172.12.123.1 255.255.255.0

encapsulation frame-relay

frame-relay interface-dlci 102

frame-relay interface-dlci 103

 

Spoke 1 FR Configuration

interface Serial2/0

ip address 172.12.123.2 255.255.255.0

encapsulation frame-relay

frame-relay interface-dlci 201

ip ospf priority 0

 

Spoke 2 FR Configuration

interface Serial2/0

ip address 172.12.123.3 255.255.255.0

encapsulation frame-relay

frame-relay interface-dlci 301

ip ospf priority 0

 
However when I try to configure my OSPF i got this error. 
 
Hub(config-router)#neighbor 172.12.123.2
Hub(config-router)#neighbor 172.12.123.3
Hub(config-router)#network 172.12.123.0 0.0.0.255 area 0
Hub(config-router)#% OSPF: Configured Nbr 172.12.123.2 is incompatible with OSPF network type on Serial2/0
00:18:39:%OSPF-4-CFG_NBR_INVALID_NET_TYPE: Can not use configured neighbor 172.12.123.2 on Serial2/0. Neighbor command only allowed on NBMA and P2MP networks.
 
Can anyone tell me what went wrong? Attached is the diagram of my network.
 
P.S. When i try to add attached another router to my hub with subnet 10.1.1.0/24 and I enable OSPF this happened 
 

Hub(config-router)#network 10.1.1.0 0.0.0.255 area 0

Hub(config-router)#

00:23:03: %OSPF-5-ADJCHG: Process 1, Nbr 10.1.1.1 on FastEthernet1/0 from LOADING to FULL, Loading Done

00:23:39: %OSPF-5-ADJCHG: Process 1, Nbr 3.3.3.3 on Serial2/0 from LOADING to FULL, Loading Done

 
 

Hub#show ip ospf neighbor

Hi,

Change the OSPF network type to Point-to-Multipoint on the Spoke and Hub's serial interface.

interface S2/0
ip ospf network point-to-multipoint

 

This is a classic question about OSPF and FrameRelay. I would suggest you to read Peter Paluch's detailed explanation about why both spokes can't talk to each other.  

 

It's a really great and detailed explanation!
