I have installed ver 8.1.5 server and client on NT workstation 4.0 and used the
NET8 config assistant to setup listener.ora and tnsnames.ora. I receive the
ORA-12500 error when attempting to connect using either the host naming method
or the local naming method. I can tnsping ok from the server and from a client
using both @hostname (as defined in the hosts file) and @service_name (in
tnsnames.ora) but the only way I can successfully connect to the database is
via sqlplus on the server, with username/password only ( no service name).
Any ideas as to what could be causing this problem.
Thanks...Don Hall
