We have installed oracle 10G in the server "ORAServer". Couple of database instance are created on the same server.

we could able to access it trough only two ways:


1.ServerSide:we need to login to the server either remotely or on the same server, and access using sqlplus,isqlplus(url) etc..

2.ClientSide: using isqlplus(url)

Problem:
Now we have installed oracle client at our local desktop and trying to access oracle database(using isqlplus or command prompt sqlplus), but we get ora-12154 error.

Though i could able to connect thru enterprise manager console from the client side.

We suspect the listener files| Any solution for the same?

ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve service name
 *Cause:  The service name specified is not defined correctly in the
 TNSNAMES.ORA file.
 *Action:  Make the following checks and correct the error:
           - Verify that a TNSNAMES.ORA file exists and is in the proper
             place and accessible. See the operating system specific manual
             for details on the required name and location.
           - Check to see that the service name exists in one of the
             TNSNAMES.ORA files and add it if necessary.
           - Make sure there are no syntax errors anywhere in the file.
             Particularly look for unmatched parentheses or stray characters.
             Any error in a TNSNAMES.ORA file makes it unusable. See
             Chapter 4 in the SQL*Net V2 Administrator's Guide. If
               possible, regenerate the configuration files using the Oracle
               Network Manager.

A look in Database Net Services Administrator's Guide will be a good help.
"netca" assistant can do the job for you, especially on client.

ora 12154,00000, "TNS:could not resolve the connect identified specified"
*May 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.
*Action:If you are using local naming(TNSNAMES.ORA file):
Make sure that "TNSNAMES" is listed as a values of the NAMES.DIRECTORY_PATH parameter in the oracle Net profile.
