TNS-12541: No listner on Windows VISTA (oracle 10g client)

Hi all,
After installing an Oracle 10g Client for Windows Vista, when trying to connect to the database, i got the error No listner (TNS-12541). I checked the database listner but it's running and i can connect there from XP OS client. Does anybody have an idea about that.
tnsping give the same error also but when i ping the server it gives response.
Any body has experioenced the same problem, if yes could you help please it's very urgent.
Thanks regards
raitsarevo

raitsarevo,
First of all: it's not very urgent. Very urgent requests end up in a SR at http://metalink.oracle.com.
Oracle doesn't support all editions of Vista and 10g may not even support Vista at all. Please refer to the download page for 10g at http://otn.oracle.com for further details.
A non-supported edition of Mickeysoft usually results in Oracle Net issues.

Windows Vista Oracle 10g Express Edition ODBC problem

Hi,
I am running my Oracle 10g Xpress Edition locally on Windows Vista Enterprise Edition. I am trying to create an ODBC connetion to the local XE using Window ODBC utility. I selected the Oracle in XE driver to create the connection, when I test it I get
Unable to connect

I think you should probably download the file again, it might be corrupt.

TNS configuration needs ocijdbc11.dll : I want to use Oracle 10g client

I configured apex-config.xml to use a TNSNAME. I deployed the APEX listener in a standalone OC4J 10.1.3.5.
It asks for ocijdbc11.dll to be in -Djava.library.path.
This means an Oracle 11g client is required. Why isn't it possible to use an Oracle 10g client installation? Is there a way to use an Oracle 10g installation in combination with the OC4J APEX listener?
I do'n't want to use the "thin" methode because this cannot be used in an Oracle RAC environment as far as I know (at least not with failover).

Hello,
as far as I know, you can use the thin driver to connect to RAC. If I don't remember this wrong, you should be able to configure the URL like this:
jdbc:oracle:thin:@(DESCRIPTION=(LOAD_BALANCE=on)
(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)(HOST=host1) (PORT=1521))
(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)(HOST=host2) (PORT=1521))
(CONNECT_DATA=(SERVICE_NAME=service)))Just my personal opinion: If you want to use a "fat" client, it shouldn't be too hard to install a 11g client. Of course, this will require additional space on your app server, but I like the thought that Oracle tries to keep the APEX Listener a lightweight application that works pretty good for most scenarios. If you try to make it compatible with every option and every version, this wouldn't stay that way.

Oracle 10g Client and ODAC Side-By-Side

Hi there, I was unable to find an answer to my query by using search, but apologies if this is a double-post.
I'm having some issues with a ASP.NET application running on a Windows XP Pro machine. The machine has Oracle 10g client installed (oraClient10g_home1), and also ODAC (ODACHome2).
The part of my web application that accesses our Oracle DB (10g), always gets a ORA-12154 error when it tries to connect, but SQL*Plus and tnsping for this TNS both work on the machine.
When I use tnsping from the command line it looks like its using parameter files from the ODAC home, rather than the 10g client home.
On my development machine (where ODAC is not installed), the application works fine.
Does anyone have any idea if there are any issues having both of these clients installed?
Or otherwise where my problem could be?
Thanks very much in advance,
James Simm

Thanks for the link, however it hasn't solved my issues:
The version of ODP.Net installed is 10.2.0.2.20, and the Oracle Client is 10.2, so according to that link it should be able to automatically switch between Oracle Homes.
The application I'm troubleshooting doesn't actually use ODP.Net, it uses System.Data.OracleClient, but ODP.Net is required for another application.
I'm extremely stuck, as I cannot understand why I'm getting ORA-12154 when every other Oracle application on the machine can access it.
Please let me know if there are any other things I can try, or if you need any information from me?
Thanks in advance,
James Simm

Error to connect oracle 10g client and designer BO 4.0

hello,
I try to connect oracle 10g client and designer BO 4.0.
I created an ODBC connection to function in the administration tools of data sources but I can not connect once in designer.
I tried using the driver directly oracle designer 10 but I have the same error that is this:
DBD: ORA-12154: TNS: connection identifier specified could not be resolved
someone there had the same concerns?
cordially

Hi,
so it looks like that your TNSNAMES.ORA file isn`t properly configured. Thats why you can connect with the IDT to your Oracle Database.
Your DBA`s should sent you the correct TNSNAMES.ORA file or the entry for your DB prior. After the tnsping works, you will be able to use the IDT properly.
Regards
-Seb.

Oracle 10g client not connecting to Oracle 8i server

I have oracle 8i server already installed. I downloaded Oracle 10g client recently. I installed it on one machine and trying to connect to 8i server. I used TNSnames.ora which was already present on the machine. After entering the username, password and service name in SQL plus, I got a error saying server version not suported. Does 10g client not support 8i server or am I doing something wrong ?

There is an 8.1.7.4 patchset for Windows.
If you take a look at the Instant Client forum, there are some discussions on this where one of the Oracle product managers (Mr. Jue) has chimed in. At present, only connections to 8.1.7.4 and higher are supported. It is expected that the first 10g patchset will fix this bug and allow connections to 8.1.7.0 and above databases.

Connect Oracle 10g client to the Oracle 10g database behind a firewall

I need to connect an Oracle 10g client to the Oracle 10g database (windows server 2003 box) behind a firewall. I ran into this problem: Port redirection. Port redirection requires the Oracle client to connect to the database using a different port (usually a randomly selected TCP port) than the default or originally configured one. If there is no firewall between the server and the client, port redirection will not affect the actual connection. However, if port redirection does occur with the server behind a firewall, the client will be likely to suffer from a connectivity failure. The reason is simple: the newly assigned port based on port redirection is often blocked by the firewall. Such failures are not uncommon on Windows platforms.
I don't know how to stablished an unique TCP port.
I Enabled USE_SHARED_SOCKET on the Oracle database server, windows registry. Acording to what I read,that will force the server machine to share its port 1521 and thus all clients will stay on that port when connecting to the database. Noticeably, port redirection will not occur with USE_SHARED_SOCKET enabled, but that's true in oracle 8 or oracle 9. In oracle 10g this solution doesn't work.
I will apreciate any help about this. Please!
Thanks in advanced.

Three solutions in order of preference
1 Use Connection Manager on the server (only installed using a Custom Install). This will tunnel all traffic through a single port. It will also allow you to configure allowable nodes
2 Set up shared server to use a fixed port. Disadvantage: shared server has overhead and the number of connections is limited
3 Use shared_sockets. Disadvantage: when you stop the listener everyone is disconnected.

Oracle 10g client on Domain

We have some problems with a Oracle 10g client instalation:
We installed in a Windows 7 Pro OS on Domain, using an Admin User, Oracle 10g Client. If I use that user, I can connect to DB. If I change the user for a restricted one, I can't.
Sample: Using the restricted user, I try to run SQL Plus for Windows; it starts, but after I fill the User, Pass and DB information, SQLPlus closes without showing any error or warning. In the same way, I can't run any program using the Client.
If I change the privileges for that user to Administrator in the Active Directory, all works without problems (without any change in the configuration)
Any idea about the permisions I should give to the user without giving Admin privileges.
Thank you
Rafael B.

Welcome to the forums !
Pl indicate which version of 10g client was installed. The only version of 10g that is certified on Win 7 is 10.2.0.5. Other versions may or may not work as advertised.

Oracle 10g Client

We are having difficulty getting the Oracle 10g client working for some users. The client installs fine, and works when we are logged in as an administrator, but not as the normal users.
The Oracle Client and our applications are installed on a Citrix Metaframe server (thin client server) running Windows 2003 Server. We install the Oracle client (10.2.0.1.0) on the C: drive, which is hidden from the end users. We then grant permissions to the Oracle directory on the C: drive for them to access the oracle client.
After we install, grant permissions, check environment variables and registry settings, we run Sql Plus to check that we can connect to the database. This all works fine when logged in as an admin ( as do our applications ). But when we try to run SqlPlus as a normal user, we get the login screen, and as soon as we try to connect, the program crashes.
If I run a batch file to try to login to the dos version of SqlPlus, I receive the error:
SP2-1503: Unable to initialize Oracle call interface
SP2-0152: ORACLE may not be functioning properly
I have only found a couple of references to these errors, suggesting that the ORACLE_HOME path must not contain a \ backslash at the end of the path. But this is not the problem.
I even tried refreshing permissions to the registry itself, but that didn't help. I'm really not sure at what point the client is not working, so I'm having trouble debugging.
Any suggestions?

We have run across this problem as well and granting 'Create Global Objects' solves it. However, our Windows administrators are resisting implementing it on production servers, saying it's potential security risk.
Has anyone run across this resistance in their shops and been able to overcome it? I can't find any good documentation that will allay the fears of the Windows groups. Their resisting this change is holding up a project.
Thanks,
Paul

Oracle 10g client connect to oracle 11g server

Hi All,
In my system, i have installed oracle 11g server(11.1.0.6.0). while i try to connect to this server by 10g client in my friends system,which is in the same network,it is showing
ORA-12545: Connect failed because target host or object does not exist,
then i tried with other system (using oracle10g client), its showing
ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve the connect identifier specified
then i tried with one another system (using oracle 9i client) -- its is connected.
what may be the problem. not connecting using oracle 10g client. and also different error.

user12479258 wrote:
Hi,
The client version is 10.2.0.1
this version may not be connect to oracle 11g?
If so then which are the client version will connect to oracle11g server(11.1.0.6.0).A 10.2 client will connect to an 11.x database, but the sqlnet.ora and tnsnames.ora files must be configured correctly. The errors you reported are not uncommon and have been diagnosed repeatedly on this forum. Let's not confuse the issue by comparing / copying files from various machines, as that has already created a moving target of error messages.
On the client that is exhibiting the problem ...
Do you have a single ORACLE_HOME? A single TNSNAMES.ORA?
On that machine, at a command prompt, do a tnsping on the service in question. Also try to connect with sqlplus. Copy the entire session -- commands and results -- and paste it all back here.
On the server machine, log on as the owner of the oracle software, and at a command prompt enter the command "lsnrctl status". Again, Copy the entire session -- commands and results -- and paste it all back here.
