I have installed Oracle 10g client and am trying to connect to an Oracle 9i database with it. I have already created the required Listner and service names. But when I try to login to SQL * Plus , it gives me the following error: Ora-12154: TNS: Could not resolve the connect identifier specified
Could Oracle 10g client connect to a 9i database? If so how do I fix this problem?

I am trying to create a DR on the same server as that of primary server.

What works: There is a oracle database on the local network. I'm connecting to it through my web server on my pc (apache/php). I have installed "oracle_instantclient10". It works fine - i can connect to oracle db, queries are executed fine.
What doesnt work: I'm trieing to connect to the same oracle db from a Linux server, but i get the error:
ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve the connect identifier specified
My linux server can connect to remote oracle db, because "nmap ORACLE_DB_MACHINE_IP -PN", gives me answer "1521/tcp open oracle". I have the same firewall allowance with my winXp pc.
I use the same "TNSNAMES.ORA" and "SQLNET.ORA" files on both: linux server, winXp pc. The only difference between winXp and linux machines is that winXp uses oracle instant client version 10.2, and linux uses version 11.2.

While connecting to oracle database, i'm getting

I have the following computer/setup:
Acer laptop, Intel Processor w/ Windows 7 Professional (64-bit)
Delphi 2010 Professional
Oracle XE (+ the Oracle XE client that comes with it)
I cannot can't to the Oracle database from Delphi. The error I keep getting is:
Alias is not currently opened. [Oracle][ODBC][Ora]ORA-12154:TNS: could not resolve the connet identifier specified.
Here's what I've done:
1. Create an ODBC connection to my Oracle database
- run C:WindowsSysWOW64odbcad32.exe to open the ODBC administrator.
- Data source name: bt_user
- TNS Server Name: localhost/xe
- user bt_user
- Clicked "test connection" -- Success.
2. Open Delphi and drop a TDatabase component on my main form.
- Set the Alias Name property to "bt_user" (the alias I set up in ODBC)
- Set database name to "bt_user".
- Checked "connected".
Alternatively, I tried using the Delphi ADO components (the dbGo components).
- Drop TADOConnection component on my form.
- Select "connection string" and open the dialog.
- Click "build string".
- Select "Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers" from the selection.
- In "use data source", select "bt_user" from the drop-down list (my ODBC connection from #1)
- Click "test connection".
Again the same error.
My questions are:
1. Can Delphi work with Oracle XE (Express Edition)?
2. If so, then do I need to install the "Instant Client"?
3. Will the instant client for Oracle 10g work with Oracle 10g XE?
4. Do I need to install any additional ODBC driver(s)?
5. Why was I successful in creating the ODBC connection in Windows, but it failed in Delphi?
6. Will Visual Studio.NET (C#) work with Oracle XE, and what are the steps for setting that up?
I have a really strange problem connecting from a new client to an Oracle server, here are the points :
- There is no problem with DB server and its listener and all that as I am able to connect from other clients
- I have installed the oraclient on this machine ( it is a XP machine ) and copy/pasted the TNSNAMES.ORA from one of those correct PCs here and when I do a TNSPING is returns OK
- even when I open oracle net manager I see the TNS entries in there and when I test a connection thru it is says successfull
- BUT WHEN I USE SQL+ or TOAD or ODBC ( any of these) trying to make a connection using the exact same TNS entries it returns :
"ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve the connect identifier specified"
- I have tried with both IP and Host name but no luck
- TNSNames.Ora and sqlnet.ora both are located here : oracleproduct10.2.0client_1NETWORKADMIN
- there is just one oracle home
- I have already uninstalled/installed oracle client
- These lines are included in Sqlnet.ora :
SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICES= (NTS) NAMES.DIRECTORY_PATH= (TNSNAMES)
I marked those entries in Sqlnet.ora and that made no diff in result, another thing : if I use easy connect method : sqlplus scott/tiger@<Servername>:1521/ORCL it does connect but using TNSNames still I can not get connected. so strange!!, seems somehow the TNS file even is not being picked or looked at !
I have both 10g and 11g installed in my machine.There are so many CI builds that runs without problems.For few builds which uses 10g, it throws errors as ,

Only at a particular step, this is happening. After this,if some-other target is connecting to Oracle,it is able to connect.
i tried for 3 days to setup a connection between my oracle database 11.2 (resides on 2003,64 bit Microsoft windows) and a mysql database (resides on 2003,32 bit Microsoft widows).
i used dg4odbc 64 bit which was installed on oracle server, my steps was as follows :
1- configure ODBC driver (MYSQL 3.51 odbc) on oracle server that connect to mysql database and the connection was tested successfully (the name of odbc dsn is DG4ODBC).
2- configure the listener.ora file (which resides on dg4odbc installation path) that contains the following :
LISTENER =
(DESCRIPTION_LIST =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = xxxxxxxxxxxx)(PORT = 1511))

3- configure the tnsnames.ora file (which resides on oracle database path) that contains the follwoing :
DG4ODBC =
(DESCRIPTION=
(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=tcp)(HOST=xxxxxxxxxxxx)(PORT=1521))
(CONNECT_DATA = ( SERVICE_NAME = DG4ODBC ))
(HS=OK)
)
4- configure that initdg4odbc.ora file that resides on the dg4odbc installation.
HS_FDS_CONNECT_INFO = DG4ODBC
HS_FDS_TRACE_LEVEL = off
5- restart the gateway listener.
6- test DG4ODBC service by tnsping which was successful .when i try to get some data from mysql database by SELECT * FROM MDL_COURSE@DG4ODBC query,the query take some time (15 second !!) and return

The problem is that this connection errors when I try to connect using my SQuirreL client. My developers want to connecting using the SID or the SERVICE_NAME and by using the "New Method" syntax, not the "Old Method" syntax. According to the documentation the "New Method" syntax works with the SERVICE_NAME or the SID. The "Old Method" only works with the SID.

View 12 Replies View RelatedI have TOAD 8.6 installed and hoping to use with Oracle 10g databases. I have SQL Navigator also - it works fine. However TOAD does not. Open up TOAD and see the TNS dropdown, select a database and try to log in - click on Connect and the little SQL hour glass comes on, goes off - there is no error, no message and no connection. I have tried several databases and again, SQLPlus, SQL Navigator are both working fine.
