Re: Oracle Report Server and Web Access

[Quoted] It is not the same port as your SQL*Plus connections. In my TNSNAMES.ORA file, I have an entry similar to:

   reportserver.world =
(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)(Host=123.456.789.123)(Port=1949))

I used the default port (1949) in my configuration. This entry must appear on ONE LINE ONLY! And you'll probably need to use the IP number for the host. After you put this entry in TNSNAMES, create the NT Service.

Another thought. What version of NT are you using and with what Service Pack? You might have an incompatibility with NT SP and the version of Developer Server.
