[Quoted] [Quoted] Are you doing tests while logged onto the server?

[Quoted] Are you doing tests while logged onto another machine/client-pc and does it [Quoted] have the correct tnsnames.ora file?

[Quoted] Can you ping (using TCP/IP ping command) the server from the client-pc?

[Quoted] [Quoted] Can you tnsping the databases ? Of course, sqlplus is the real/ultimate test [Quoted] if you have complete connectivity, but it could be useful info if you have [Quoted] [Quoted] good test with tnsping and not good tests with sqlplus.

[Quoted] [Quoted] Do you have any other *.ora files in the directory where you store the [Quoted] tnsnames.ora (other than listener.ora on the server)? Or, do you have any [Quoted] [Quoted] *.ora files anywhere else on the client-pc or server?

[Quoted] Are you mistakenly pointing to another location for tnsnames.ora other than [Quoted] the default? Do you have any TNS_ADMIN entries in the registry? Do you have [Quoted] [Quoted] any environment variable named TNS_ADMIN? Is your tnsnames.ora stored in the [Quoted] default location (ORACLE_HOME\network\admin)?

[Quoted] Include the listener.ora and tnsnames.ora files (and other *.ora files) in [Quoted] your reply if possible. If the tnsnames.ora is large, then maybe just [Quoted] [Quoted] cut/paste the databases you are having problems with.
