Home -> Community -> Usenet -> c.d.o.server -> Client connection problem to Oracle 8.1.6.0 NT
Hello,
I have recently installed a fresh copy of Oracle 8.1.6.0 on a test machine which seems to have installed successfully. I can bring up SQL Plus on that test machine and connect to the database. However, on the client machine I go into the Net8 Assistant and create a new service name and go to test it, I get the following error:
There may be an error in the fields entered, or the server may not be ready for a connection.
I have tried the tnsping using my failed service name and it says ok, but I still can't make my connection to the database. Any ideas on debugging this would be appreciated. Thanks in advance
