hi there, I have been working on this all day and am still getting errors - I can connect using sqlplus in solaris without problems but cannot connect through cfadministrator - I tried a page to sdee if it would work even though it was failaing connectivity but with no joy. Error code is below:
ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve service name I am not sure what this means but I presume that it is at least seeing Oracle (therefore it is setup correctly). I hope someone can help Cheers Simon ----- Original Message ----- From: "Dave Hannum" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "CF-Talk" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, November 01, 2001 12:25 PM Subject: Re: Oracle Help > Dumb question, but, are you sure you have the username and password correct > in CFAdministrator.
