Then most certainly your environment is not right. Have you tried writing a little batch script to set ORACLE_SID and ORACLE_HOME? (Or maybe there is an Oracle home selector?)

SQL> What is happenning here is that ZTST is not defined in the tnsnames.ora, and I don't have TWO_TASK defined. But I do have it defined in $ORACLE_SID and the listener picks it up. So if I specify @ZTST, it looks in the tnsnames.ora, doesn't find it, and spits out ORA-12154. But if I don't specify it and just use the defaults, it finds it just fine. So one thing might be a problem with your tnsnames.ora You might try KTP.ci-test.CI_BHG. Some versions of Oracle are sensitive to messing up tnsnames invisibly with certain editors or copying, you might try regenerating it from scratch. What is in your sqlnet.ora file?
