Re: Oracle Report Server and Web Access

I had the same problem. The service most likely can not find the definition for reportserver. Did you add this definition to your TNSNAMES.ORA file? You have to include an entry in the TNSNAMES.ORA file for reportserver. I also could not use the domain name for my host. I had to use the IP address instead. One more item, the tnsnames entry can be on one line only.
