I'm in a DB class and having trouble with SQL*Plus on win ME
Yes, I know, ME is not all that great but it will do for now!
A software set called Oracle 9i Development Suite for Win XP, 2000, or NT came with my book for class. I have installed it on my desktop PC which has win XP. It installed without a problem. It asked me for the name service info and my logon and password and the test was successful. I can logon to the SQL*Plus on the PC just fine.
My problem is: I downloaded Oracle 9i for Win98/ME for the laptop and when i installed it, it didnt ask me for the name service info. So I found the config tool that allows me to add a name service and I did it the same as I did when installing it on the XP machine. But now when I try to use SQL*Plus, it gives me the ORA-12154: TNS could not resolve service name. I know this is a common error and I have searched the forums for an answer, but to no luck!
Any help would be great, thanks
Nate
