RE: [Spam] Re: impdp Issue

I don’t see it even trying to open a tnsnames.ora file anywhere. It does find the correct sqlnet.ora file:

openat(AT_FDCWD, "/var/opt/oracle/sqlnet.ora", O_RDONLY) = 4

access("/var/opt/oracle/sqlnet.ora", F_OK) = 0 openat(AT_FDCWD, "/var/opt/oracle/sqlnet.ora", O_RDONLY) = 6 fcntl(6, F_SETFD, FD_CLOEXEC) = 0 fstat(6, {st_mode=S_IFREG|0660, st_size=969, ...}) = 0 read(6, "NAMES.DIRECTORY_PATH= (TNSNAMES,"..., 4096) = 969

read(6, "", 4096)                       = 0
close(6)                                = 0

I create the database link, put the entry in the tnsnames.ora file, and verified that all is good. The tnsping returns correctly. I can query the remote database from SQL*Plus with no issue, but when I try to run the impdp, I get:

ORA-39001: invalid argument value
ORA-39200: Link name "advcprod" is invalid.
ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve the connect identifier specified

The source database is Oracle 12.1 on Red Hat 7, the destination database is Oracle 19 on Red Hat 8. I’ve tried setting the SID and SERVICE_NAME in the tnsnames.ora file and it doesn’t matter, I get the same error either way.

Can you do strace and check the file that is being opened for TNS identifiers? You might be using wrong TNS_ADMIN.
