Since it looks like you are using an Oracle database, my guess is that it's 
something between the TWO_TASK and SID/Service Name and the install getting 
confused.

Try the following ...
Add a new entry in the TNSNAMES.ORA file that the ARS server is using.  Make 
the Entry name the same as the SID/Service Name (from your data below)

db1008 =   
  (DESCRIPTION =   
    (ADDRESS_LIST = (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL=TCP) (HOST=ndmsora14.ndc.nasa.gov) 
(PORT=1521)))   
    (CONNECT_DATA = (SERVICE_NAME=db1008))   
  )   

This way you can specify the db1008 in the install for both.  After the install 
you can change the ar.cfg file to use the entry in the TNSNAMES file that you 
want.

Subject: Oracle error when installing AR Server 7.5 patch 007 on Windows 2008

We are now trying to install 7.5 on a Windows 2008 (6.1) server and are getting 
the following error:

Unresolved database error: Listener refused the connection with the following 
error: ORA-12514, TNS:listener does not currently know of service requested in 
connect descriptor The Connection descriptor used by the client was: // 
ndmsora14.ndc.nasa.gov:1521/db1008

Our database is on a separate server.  We have installed Oracle 11g client on 
the 2008 6.1 application server and can do a tnsping to the database server but 
when we run the AR Server 7.5 install, after the section where we enter the 
Oracle information we get the error.  

Any idea how to resolve this?  

Thanks
Tim
