You may want to replace ENCRYPTION_WALLET_LOCATION keyword with just WALLET_LOCATION in your sqlnet.ora file.
EWL is used only for TDE but if you want to use external password store, you will have to use WALLET_LOCATION rather than ENCRYPTION_WALLET_LOCATION. However if you are going to use both TDE and external password respository, then make sure your sqlnet.ora file has both entries ENCRYPTION_WALLET_LOCATION as well as WALLET_LOCATION

DBMS_SCHEDULER - ORA-02064: distributed operation not supported

I am getting this error:
ORA-02064: distributed operation not supported
using the DBMS_SCHEDULER package in Database 10g. The code works successfully in PL/SQL DEVELOPER inside the database but when I try to run the code through PSP pages on the web, I get this error. The erro happens when this method is executed in DBMS_SCHEDULER:
DBMS_SCHEDULER.CREATE_PROGRAM(
PROGRAM_NAME => 'ROADS_FTP',
PROGRAM_TYPE => 'STORED_PROCEDURE',
PROGRAM_ACTION => 'pkg_report_t3.transfer_report',
NUMBER_OF_ARGUMENTS => 0,
ENABLED => FALSE,
COMMENTS => 'Highway Driving Conditions FTP Program');
Do anybody know how I can get this to work in a browser? Or why I am getting this error?
Thanks!

I'm just passing the values to the procedure .
Procedure is stored on a remote machine
procedure has a ddlAnd the DDL will implicitly issue a commit before and after that DDL statement (as all DDL statements do). So you ARE doing a commit in a romote procedure call, hence why you're getting the error.
If you want to remotely create a user you need to issue the DDL in the manner I described.

ORA-02064: distributed operation not supported

Im getting this WARNING when im executing my mapping.
My mapping involves selecting a data from a splitter and updating and inserting two tables respectively. ONe set of data from the splitter will be inserted into 1 table and the other set of output from the splitter is updated into the 2nd table.
This is working fine. But i dont know why im getting this warning.
Is it a very serious thing or can i ignore this?

Hi Vibhuti,
Looking up the desciption for this warning gives me this:
ORA-02064: distributed operation not supported
Cause: One of the following unsupported operations was attempted:
1. array execute of a remote update with a subquery that references a dblink, or
2. an update of a long column with bind variable and an update of a second column with a subquery that both references a dblink and a bind variable, or
3. a commit is issued in a coordinated session from an RPC procedure call with OUT parameters or function call.
Action: simplify remote update statement
I have not encountered this error myself, but my guess would be you are running into scenario 1 with your target tables or source tables in a remote database.
See if running the mapping in row-based mode gets rid of the warning.
Btw, are you sure it's merely a warning and not an error ? I.e. are you targets really updated the way you expect ?

Suddenly getting "ORA-12154: TNS: could not resolve service name"

Hi all
A fairly basic post from a newbie here!
Basically, I connect to several Oracle 9i instances from my PC using Toad and SQLPlus. Yesterday, this was working fine, but today, I am getting "ORA-12154: TNS: could not resolve service name" every time I try to hit any oracle instance from either Toad or SQLPlus. I have checked my TNSNAMES.ora file and it looks fine.
Are there any system variables I should look at? My PATH was changed yesterday, but I have checked and my Oracle 9i bin path is still correctly in my PATH.
I'm a bit baffled so any help/pointers would be most welcome!
Many thanks
Jon

Since you have changed your PATH, did you change any other Env Variable?
How many ORACLE_HOME have you got. i.e have you installed any new Oracle Software on the same machine?
Ensure that that Environment Variables ORACLE_HOME and TNS_ADMIN is pointing to the correct directory where your TNSNAMES.ORA is located.

Ora 12154: TNS could not resolve connect identifier specified

Hi,
I have Oracle 11g (Release 1_32bit) Client on my C:\ drive which connect to a Remote 11g (11.1.0.7.0 - 64bit) server.
I have installed 10g DB Server(10.2.0.1.0) and Oracle 10g Forms(Forms [32 Bit] Version 10.1.2.0.2 ) on my D:\ drive.
When I try to connect to Oracle 10g DB from Forms using "Connect" button, I get following error:
"ORA-12154: TNS: could not resolve the connect identifier specified"
Tns and Listner files both are same in Developer_Suite home and 10g home.
Can someone please help me with this error?
Thanks

Tns and Listner files both are same in Developer_Suite home and 10g home.Listener files are totally useless in Developer Suite home, since they are server files.

ORA-12535: TNS:operation timed out on other pc

After installing the XE edition on a server, I can connect fine on the server itsself. But when I try to connect from a client machine, I get ORA-12535: TNS:operation timed out.
My tnsnames on the client holds this string for the XE db:
MyDB.10gXE =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = MYSERVER)(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVER = DEDICATED)
(SERVICE_NAME = XE)
any ideas???

Rather than
MyDB.10gXE =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = MYSERVER)(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVER = DEDICATED)
(SERVICE_NAME = XE)
why not go with the bulk standard tnsnames entry as follows:-
XE =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = MYSERVER)(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVER = DEDICATED)
(SERVICE_NAME = XE)
I don't think the qualified MyDB.10gXE name is adding any value and may well confuse things.
Although setting it for my environment does work

ORA-12154 TNS could not resolve service name error

Hi
I'm having trouble connecting to database throug sql*plus.I'm able to connect through TOAD but getting 'ORA-12154 TNS could not resolve service name error' when trying to login through sql*plus using same credentials .
I tried running sqlplus through command prompt,but when i enter the user-name i'm getting ORA-12203:TNS:unable to connect to destination.
Can someone help me with this error.
Thanks.

It would probably give you an idea where to start looking. You need to make sure that you have the correct .ora files needed for establishing connections. I don't know if your service desk just does the installation but no setup or if they also do the setup configuration. You can also try doing the setup on your own to check. You can use net easy config.

DBlink and Tns could not resolve connect identifier specified

We are encountering a strange issue with DB link(may be new to me)
We have Oracle 9.2.0.8 and 10.2.0.3 in Solrais 10
We are accesing both servers from the 10g
We are able to connect to both the database through SQLplus
We created a DBLink in oracle 9i to access 10g
SQL:
create public database link PRD connect to admin identified by ***** using 'PRD';
Database link is created
We have an entry in the TNSNAMES.ora for PRD which has a description connecting to 10g database.
now we are issuin
select * from table@PRD
The error message is
ora 12514-TNS could not resolve connect identifier sepcified
But i am ablt to connect to both the databases from SQLPLUS but not by DBlink
My global_names parmaeter is TRUE:
Global_name=PRD without the domain name..

Tried and failed......)
Nicolas
Does the DBlink takes the TNSentry in the host server
even when we run from the clinet?
I heard somewhere earlierDB link makes the database behave as a client.
If you are on the other side of Jupiter and you connect to the database, should the database look in the TNSNAMES.ORA file on your computer to resolve the entry? Should it send a message back via SQLNet to your PC to ask it to look up what the DB Link means?
Bottom line: The TNSNAMES.ORA in the ORACLE_HOME/networking/admin of the database install is used by all the client products running out of the ORACLE_HOME/bin - including the database when the database behaves as a client.

DB Connect error: ORA-12535: TNS:operation timed out

Hi,
I am trying to connect to a external oracle database from SAP.
I entered the TNS entry of the external DB in the TNSNAMES.ORA and configured it in the table DBCON.
But i am not able to connect to the external database. It is throwing the error
"sql error 12.535 ; occured:ORA-12535: TNS:operation timed out"
But i was able to connect the database from my system through TNSPING and also from TOAD.
Do i need to configure any parameter in LISTENER.ORA in SAP or in the external database?

Hi,
Thanks for the reply.
The note which you specified was with BI objects. But i am trying to connect from SAP R/3 to a remote Oracle database.
I got connected to the remote Oracle database for an hour and it got disconnected by saying "TNS operation timed out".
The CONNECT_TIMEOUT parameter in LISTERER.ORA of the remote Oracle database is missing.
Will this may be the cause for the "TNS operation timed out".

ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve the connect identifier specified [10g XE]

Greetings
There are many topics on this issue over the internet but None of them addresses this issue properly, so I couldn't find a solution to the problem.
I installed: Oracle Database 10g Express Edition
After the installation was done, I opened SQL Command Line
and I used the command "connect" to login
I enter the username
Then I entered the password
After a couple of seconds I got the following ERROR message:
ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve the connect identifier specified
Screenshot of the error:
http://i35.tinypic.com/14o26g7.png
I installed this version of Oracle on both Windows XP 32 bit and Windows 7 32 bit and I get the same error message when it tries to connect.
Why doesn't Oracle work right after the installation?
Are there any further steps that need to be done in order to make this work? If so I would really appreciate any step by step help, I've been stuck trying to find a solution for days.

I wento to CMD, then I entered sqlplus / as sysdba and that just opened the SQL*Plus program in CMD (SQL>)
But nevertheless I still need to login with a user name and password which and I tried and I got the same error message.

Get into SQL*Plus with the command I gave you, now type this:
alter user <theusernameyouwant> identified by abc123;followed by (still in SQL*Plus):
connectafter you type "connect", SQL*Plus will ask you for a user name and password. Use the same user name and password you used in the alter command.

Hi...Please help...Getting ORA 12154 TNS Listener could not resolve...

Hi,
I have just loaded Oracle 10g Rel 2 in Win 2003 Enterprise Edition.
But when I try to connect to sqlplus, I am getting ORA -12154 : TNS: Listener could not resolve the connect identified specified.
I have registered the database, the listener and tnsnames have been set correctly.
I have also set the Oracle Home environment variable.
Still getting the error.
Any help will be highly appreciated.
Thanks,

I agree
ORA-12145: (does not exist in the standard manuals)
ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve the connect identifier specified
ORA-12514: TNS:listener does not currently know of service requested in connect descriptor
ORA-12541: TNS:no listener
It is pretty easy to fat-finger these 4 message numbers. As a result, when a person has the actual and complete error message and an error number for a different message, it is usually not a bad idea to use the actual message. (Based on transposing only 3 digits compared to typing over 50 characters correctly.)
In this case the OP has really bollixed things: Subject implies a true 12154, text in the thread is an actual 12514 but mentions 12154.
As a result, there are several potentially correct answers, depending on the interpretation of the question.
- sb92075 gave the correct answer based on the number
- I gave the correct answer based on the message in the thread
- Anurag and Ed gave the correct answer based on 'the question is not formed correctly'

Hi,
Check if you have two different oracle directories listed in system variable path.
e.g.:
D:\oracle\product\11.2.0\client_1\bin;C:\Program Files\oracle\product\11.2.0\client_1\bin
If this is the case, you have two different tnsnames.ora files.
Then sometimes the first one is used and sometimes the second.
If they don't contain the same info, you get these issues.
Delete one of the paths in the system variable or synchronize the tnsname.ora files to get rid of that.
Regards
Moritz

ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve the connect identifier specified Oracle 11

I'm having a slight issue with Oracle 11 R2

i am always able to "test connection" in ODBC. even when i get the error in crystal.
so i restart Crystal, and i am able to connect to db.
strange thing is that always when i do a tnsping to db i always get the message :-

Can't listen for connections - Operation not supported

Hi,
We have install OSB Client on HP-UX 11i V2 HP rx5670 Server as per Oracle Secure backup Installation Guide.
But we are getting following error message. Please help us to solve the issue:
2010/12/29.10:23:02 can't listen for connections - Operation not supported

Thanks
Khairul/Bangladesh

Have a look at the observiced.log file to see if that has any more detail, this is in /usr/tmp.
I would check to see if there is something else on the system that is using TCP port 400 or 10000. On Solaris I've seen the webmin installation using port 10000. Both those ports need to be free for OSB to be able to start.
With OSB stopped, you can "telnet <hostname> 400" and "telnet <hostname> 10000" to see if it connects. If it does then something is listening on that port.
You should be able to do "netstat -na" as well, to show you listening ports.
