RE: svrmgrl vs. sqlplus

Michal,

The only problem similar to that I have seen on 6.1 Red Hat was the result of a
problem in the sqlnet.ora. Are you sure the names, TRACE_LEVEL, etc that should be the same for all the target instances (7&8) are the same?

Good Luck!

John

Hi all,

I have problem with my oracle client on linux. Using 'svrmgrl' I can connect to a database but if I use 'sqlplus', I get an ORA-01034 error. Can anybody say me why? And how to repair it?

Server:
Alpha with Tru64 Unix 4.0F:
Oracle7 Server Release 7.3.4.0.0 with the 64-bit option - Production PL/SQL Release 2.3.4.0.0 - Production

Client:
Red Hat Linux release 6.1,
Kernel 2.2.19-6.2.7enterprise on a 4-processor i686 Oracle8 Release 8.0.5.0.0 - Production
PL/SQL Release 8.0.5.0.0 - Production

If I try 'svrmgrl', it's OK:
$ svrmgrl

Oracle Server Manager Release 3.0.5.0.0 - Production

Oracle8 Release 8.0.5.0.0 - Production
PL/SQL Release 8.0.5.0.0 - Production

SVRMGR> connect test/test_at_test
Connected.
SVRMGR> But trying 'sqlplus' I get an error:
$ sqlplus test/test_at_test

SQL*Plus: Release 8.0.5.0.0 - Production on Thu Apr 11 16:35:46 2002

ERROR:

Help me, please.

Mike

P.S.: This error (1034) in sqlplus comes only with connecting to Oracle7. I have no problem with connecting to Oracle8 or higher.
