Oracle 10G 2 install on RedHat Enterprise Linux 4 - Get ORA-12154 exception

During the install, on the step "Oracle Database configuration assistant", I am getting the error:
ORA-12154 TNS": could not resolve the connect identifier specified.
Has anyone seen this before? I am struggling for past couple of days on this.

ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve the connect identifier specified
Cause: A connection to a database or other service was requested using a connect identifier, and the connect identifier specified could not be resolved into a connect descriptor using one of the naming methods configured. For example, if the type of connect identifier used was a net service name then the net service name could not be found in a naming method repository, or the repository could not be located or reached.
Action:
- If you are using local naming (TNSNAMES.ORA file):
- Make sure that "TNSNAMES" is listed as one of the values of the NAMES.DIRECTORY_PATH parameter in the Oracle Net profile (SQLNET.ORA)
- Verify that a TNSNAMES.ORA file exists and is in the proper directory and is accessible.
- Check that the net service name used as the connect identifier exists in the TNSNAMES.ORA file.
- Make sure there are no syntax errors anywhere in the TNSNAMES.ORA file. Look for unmatched parentheses or stray characters. Errors in a TNSNAMES.ORA file may make it unusable.
- If you are using directory naming:
- Verify that "LDAP" is listed as one of the values of the NAMES.DIRETORY_PATH parameter in the Oracle Net profile (SQLNET.ORA).
- Verify that the LDAP directory server is up and that it is accessible.
- Verify that the net service name or database name used as the connect identifier is configured in the directory.
- Verify that the default context being used is correct by specifying a fully qualified net service name or a full LDAP DN as the connect identifier
- If you are using easy connect naming:
- Verify that "EZCONNECT" is listed as one of the values of the NAMES.DIRETORY_PATH parameter in the Oracle Net profile (SQLNET.ORA).
- Make sure the host, port and service name specified are correct.
- Try enclosing the connect identifier in quote marks. See the Oracle Net Services Administrators Guide or the Oracle operating system specific guide for more information on naming.

Sanjay --
I don't know what "set all ORACLE variables" means. Is there a manual page somewhere that explains this? I mean, there are a LOT of variables.
This XE installation works 99.99% of the time, involving hundreds of tables and a large variety of queries, functions, packages, triggers etc. Only this one transaction causes the error, so I'm not sure what additional ORACLE variables would need to be set or modified.
Also, what's the procedure for submitting an SR to Oracle? Do you have a link? I looked at the Oracle site and it seems to require the user to have a commercial support level before anything can be submitted.
Thanks.

Forms 10g certification on Redhat Enterprise Linux 5 ??

Is Forms 10g certified on Redhat Enterprise Linux 5 ??

I don't think. of sure RHEL 5 is not certified for DB 10gR2 and even for OAS 10g.
Even if I have made an installation of DB 10gr2 for RHEL 5 with xen and it's work, meanwhile OAS 10 didn't work!
Anyway,Try to search for certification matrix on Oracle site

Installing Oracle 10g Express Edition on Red Hat Linux

Hi,
I am new with Linux Os and have to install oracle 10g Express Edition on Red Hat Linux Os for a customer. So before proceeding, I need some guidelines.
1) which Linux(freeware) flavor should I install ?
2) is there any virtual enviornment available for Linux Os on which I can install 10g Express Edition database ?
3) If available, is there any difference in using the Linux Os in Virtual enviornment and actual installing Linux ? will there be any difference in installing database and configuration for both the cases?
4) need download link for latest version of Red Hat Linux setup
Regards
Edited by: user640001 on Feb 25, 2011 5:44 AM

1) which Linux(freeware) flavor should I install ?Ordinarily, I'd recommend getting Oracle Linux (http://eDelivery.oracle.com/linux) because the default install includes all the prerequisite RPM packages you will need. And failing that, also offers another RPM package "oracle-validated" which will cause the installation of the necessary prerequisites.
But... you mentioned customer: if this is a revenue-producing situation and customer money is at stake, I strongly recommend they obtain commercial O/S support with either Oracle, Red Hat, or maybe SuSE/Novell. Compared to the cost of a downed business, an O/S support arrangement is cheap, cheap, cheap.
2) is there any virtual enviornment available for Linux Os on which I can install 10g Express Edition database ?Sure. You can run Oracle VirtualBox on most Linux, Windows, or Solaris boxes. http://VirtualBox.org for info.
3) If available, is there any difference in using the Linux Os in Virtual enviornment and actual installing Linux ? will there be any difference in installing database and configuration for both the cases?No real differences in either environment.
4) need download link for latest version of Red Hat Linux setupWhat, you didn't try http://eDelivery.oracle.com/linux yet?

Oracle 10g Release 2 (10.2) for Linux x86-64

Hi All,
During installation - Oracle Database Configuration Assistance, I have got below error and thus I stuck. As per Metalink note 293988.1, this will be resolved if I do [root@localhos]# echo 1 > /proc/sys/vm/disable_cap_mlock . But problem is when I do this because I dont have /proc/sys/vm/disable_cap_mlock file in my system, it giving ¨bash: /proc/sys/vm/disable_cap_mlock: No such file or directory¨ error. So I am unable to get rid of this error. I also set SELinux Default and Current mode as permissible and rebooted it.
No use, Its giving same error.
ORA-27125: Unable to create shared memory segment.

Trust me I verified installtion guide and release notes atleast 20 times. I never had luck witht any thing. I was wondering how come edelivery.oracle.com packages (both Linux 64 bit Linux with upgrade to Unbreakable and Oracle 10g db version) is not workign for me. Finally below trick to the installed file could make my installation work(Ref link http://www.oracle-base.com/articles/10g/OracleDB10gInstallationOnFedora2.php) . In this I am setting DISABLE_HUGETLBFS to value 1. My only doubt is, does this have any impact on performance? Can some one relay on such tweeking for prod installtions? Ofcourse I am yet to go for commercial. At present I dont have ULN or metalink authorised access.
cd $ORACLE_HOME/bin
mv oracle oracle.bin
cat >oracle <<"EOF"
#!/bin/bash
export DISABLE_HUGETLBFS=1
exec $ORACLE_HOME/bin/oracle.bin $@

Hi,
Seems a problem related to your glibc install. Are you sure you have the required packages ?
Don't know if your version is a 32 bits or a 64 bits one but check this link (32 bits) :
http://www.oracle.com/pls/db102/to_toc?pathname=install.102%2Fb28052%2Ftoc.htm&remark=portal+%28Installation%29
or this link (64 bits)
http://www.oracle.com/pls/db102/to_toc?pathname=install.102%2Fb15668%2Ftoc.htm&remark=portal+%28Installation%29
and follow carefully the instructions (Redhat instructions)

Since it was released under 10.2..0.1, you are expected to install that and download the patch to upgrade to 10.2.0.4
Of course, the patch is available only on the Oracle Support site, and access is by paid support subscription.

Crystal Reports Server 2008 V1, RedHat Enterprise Linux, MySQL, ODBC

Iu2019m confused about connecting to an ODBC source from a report within CMC. Iu2019m a Unix guy; I donu2019t know much about Crystal reports, but Iu2019m working with a Crystal guy to get this thing working.
 
First, background: I have installed Crystal Reports Server 2008 V1 in RedHat Enterprise Linux (5.4), and itu2019s running just fine! Iu2019m using the included Tomcat application server, but Iu2019m storing CMS and Audit data our local running copy of MySQL (5.1.42). The RHEL install is native 32-bit (the only way I could get it to work), Crystal is storing and retrieving data from MySQL, The Central Management Console is responding to port 8080 over Tomcat, Iu2019m able to log in and see stuff, and so far, life is good.
 
Now, where Iu2019m stuck: the data weu2019re trying to build reports from also resides in this local Linux / MySQL install, and connecting to it from a report within CMC is where Iu2019m lost.
 
First, I successfully installed the unixODBC and MyODBC drivers in Linux. Iu2019m able to connect to MySQL successfully using the isql utility. Here are my conf files:
 
<pre class="jive-pre"><code class="jive-code jive-java">/etc/odbc.ini
[DSN_NAME]
Driver = MySQL ODBC 5.1 Driver
DATABASE = project_web_prod
DESCRIPTION = Project Description
UID = username
PWD = password
SOCKET = /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock
/etc/odbcinst.ini
[MySQL ODBC 5.1 Driver]
Driver = /usr/lib/libmyodbc5.so
UsageCount = 1
</code></pre>
 
Again, this all works with isql (Iu2019ve even used both a socket connection, and port 3306, in odbc.ini).
 
Now, our Crystal guy uploads a report into the CMC. I go to Folders -> <Project Folder>, right-click the report I want to test, click Database Configuration, and check the option Use custom database login information specified here. I select database driver ODBC from the dropdown, and type in the server, database, username, and password info. However, when I try to run the report, it fails to connect.
 
So, stupid question, can Crystalu2019s CMC use the system ODBC configuration options? (The ones stored in /etc). Because I saw an odbc.ini file in ~crystalinstalldir/bobje/. I edited it to match the contents of my /etc/odbc[inst].ini files, but to no avail. I saw that Crystal has itu2019s own ODBC engine, but it doesnu2019t support MyODBC driver, does it? I even tried hacking env.sh to use the system unixODBC library instead of the included one, but no luck.
 
So, in short, my question: how do I simply get reports in CMC to connect to a MySQL data source (using ODBC)?
 
Thanks so much! An answer to this question will save my day!
 

Thank you, Efstratios, for the helpful reply!
So, I followed the directions in the PDF file you attached, and everything went smoothly. However, Iu2019m still not able to connect to ODBC within CMC.
Hereu2019s what I did:
<ul style="list-style-type:disc">
<li>Copied the unixODBC libraries over to <installdir>/bobje/enterprise120/linux_x86/odbc/lib</li>
<li>Removed MySQL ODBC connector 5.1, installed MySQL ODBC connector 3.51.</li>
<li>Edited <installdir>/bobje/defaultodbc.ini, added my DSN and MySQL library info as per the instructions (I have both an odbc.ini, and defaultodbc.ini, identical files, just to be safe)</li>
<li>Tested the connection using these libraries, this odbc.ini, and isql. Worked just fine</li>
</ul>
So, my problem seems to be in getting the CMC to actually use my ODBC setup!
Any other hints / things I could try?
When I right-click a report, and go to “Database Configuration,” which connection options should I use for the report? Iu2019ve tried both “Use original database logon information from the report,” and “Use custom database logon information specified here” (using the ODBC option from the drop-down menu). Either way, if I enter in the database, username, password, and then try to run the report (“Run Now”), I get this message in the History: “Failed - Information is needed before this report can be processed.”
Is there another place I could get a more helpful error message? Or is there, perhaps, another way I could test database connectivity from within CMC? I wish there were at least a “Test Database Connection” optionu2026 :P
Thanks so much for your help!

Flash media interactive server with redhat enterprise linux ?

Was wondering if anyone was having issues trying to install
the flash media interactive server on a RedHat Enterprise Linux
machine. It seems that the installer that is packaged with the
program in incompatiable. If so what are you doing to get the
server installed? Thanks for any help

i check the dependencies and noticed that there was one that
was not satisfyied " libasneu.so.1 as it was link to nothing. After
moving the file to the /usr/lib and running the ldd command on the
fmsmaster file i was then able to see the link between the two.
When I try to install the program again I recieve the same error
message
"no package installFMS available"- this happens when i try
using yum to install the program or
ERROR: your distribution, unknown, is not supported by this
Adobe Flash Media Server installer. - happens when ./installFMS is

anyone else know of any other tricks to get this installed ?
Thanks again for everyone help on this issue.

Oracle 10g (10.1.0.2) for Linux x86 missing from download page?

Hello,
Why isn't there a download link to Oracle 10g (10.1.0.2) for Linux x86 on the 10g download page?
And what's the difference between 10.1.0.3 and 10.1.0.2?
Thanks

Hi, 
 The level of one release is different with plateform.
On the Oracle Database 10g Downloads you can find only final release, and not intermediare patch. For example, the 10gR1 for Linux x86 is 10.1.0.3, and for Windows 32-bits this is 10.1.0.2, after what you can upgrade to the last patchset.

Making new oracle 10g cluster in redhat enterprise linux

Hy All
i have installed redhat enterprise server in 2 systems and both are attached with SANE network storage. i want to configure oracle 10 g clustering with this setup.
should i have to configure clustering in linux only or there is a feature of clustering in oracle?
if yes than how to do that? i dont have any idea about oracle
please somebody help me
with regards,
ali

Hi Ali!
Hardware clustering is differnet from Oracle clustering.
If you have the database you should investigate RAC http://www.oracle.com/pls/db102/to_toc?pathname=rac.102%2Fb14197%2Ftoc.htm&remark=portal+%28Administration%29
For the Application Server have a look at http://download-uk.oracle.com/docs/cd/B14099_18/core.1012/b14003/toc.htm
Hardware clustering with RedHat could be achieved with Piranha.
