Subject: RE: Cannot Connect to DB from 9i DS Release 2
Did you set your default home back to the 9.2 home after the install? The
install will have changed it to the home for 9iDS.
Go to start -> programs -> Oracle installation products -> Home selector
and set it back.
You should also make sure you have TNS_ADMIN set in the registry so that
everything looks for the same tnsnames regardless of the home setting.
HTH,
Beth

I have a DB connection problem that I cannot resolve and need your help.
Standalone Dell 8200 PC using XP Prof. with 61.6 GB of free space.
A couple of days ago I installed my 9.2 DB successfully and was able to
connect with SQL*Plus and TOAD.
Then yesterday I installed 9iDS Rel. 2 which finished with no errors.
Destination for DS is:
Name: IDSHome
Path: C:\IDSHome1
The 9.2 DB is located at C:\oracle\admin . . . \ora92 . . . \oradata
Now I'm having a problem connecting the DB. I can connect via SQL*Plus
but not TOAD. I tried connecting to the Forms Developer/Builder,
Designer, and Reports Developer/Builder and get the same error message.
ORA-12154:TNS: Could not resolve service name. Service name specified is
not defined in TNSNAMES.ORA file.
And when I go to Services for DS I get:
OracleIDSHomeAgent - fails (will not run even with numerous start
attempts)
OracleIDSHomeClientCache - runs
Both have startup type of manual.
Attached is my TNSNAMES.ORA file.
One thing I didn't do is reboot my PC prior to the start of this
installation. I didn't think I needed to since this is the first
installation for DS.
Anyone have any idea what is wrong and how I go about correcting it?
Any and all help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Ken
