Does anyone out there have any experience installing ORACLE DATA BROWSER? I
am trying to install ORACLE Data Browser on our LAN without much success.
The installation on the UNIX workstation (ORACLE SERVER) is perfectly okay
and I was able to install the Browser on a stand-alone PC running Windows
3.1. We are running SQL*NET version 2.0 and the transport name is Novell LAN
Workplace for DOS.
My problem is how to install this product on the LAN file server.
After the installation I received the following error message when I tried
to run the Browser:
BRW-15387: LOGIN failed
ORA-12545: TNS: name lookup failure.
I copied VSL.INI to the network window directory; and made sure the entries
on WIN.INI and ORACLE.INI were correct. When I tried to run again, I
received the following message:
BRW-15387: Login Failed
ORA-12203: TNS: unable to connect to destination
I have to copy the latest TNSNAMES.ORA to the ORAWIN\NETWORK\ADMIN directory
on the LAN server. After this operations, I checked out my UNIX servers to
make sure they are LISTENING. One was, so I started the second one. And I
ran the Browser Again from the LAN Server and it was successful. A little
while after this, I ran the BROWSER again and received the same error
message as above ORA-12203 and since then I have not be able to run the
Browser.
Please forward any tip or assistance to the address below or via e-mail.
Thanks
