Re: Enterprise Manager on Windows NT

It looks to me like the server on which the management server is running does not have a tnsnames entry for the repository database.

if you have multiple oracle homes you can either set a system environment variable TNS_ADMIN pointing at the directory in which the definitive tnsnames.ora is located, or copy the same tnsnames.ora among all oracle homes.
