| dear all
I installed oracle server and it works fine and I installed oracle
forms 6i but I can not connect to the server from the forms and I found
the following errors
the following error I found when I entered only username and password in
forms query or forms SQL PLUS environment
TNS : unable to connect to destination
and sometimes when I enter the db string I found the following error:
invalide driver designator
please explain every step in the solution because I am not experienced
developer

| Depending on what you installed from the 6i media, you may have a similar set up with respect to Net8 configuration files (tnsnames.ora and sqlnet.ora in particular). Set an environmental variable named TNS_ADMIN and point it to $ORACLE_HOME/network/admin (for UNIX, done in a .cshrc or .login file for the UNIX user trying to run Forms 6i), or to d:\ora81\oracle\network\admin
(or wherever your ORACLE_HOME is on Windows).
As a test, look for c:\orant\net80\admin and see if there is a copy of tnsnames.ora and sqlnet.ora present. Compare these files to your server's version. They're probably different. |
