Hi,

I have been using Oracle 8.0.3(NT) for about a year and should probably upgrade but do not have a lot of motivation since this version has been working really well up until now... :).

I used the export utility about a month ago

exp80 userid_at_tnsname/password

and exported the database to a file. Now the utility will not connect over tns:

C:\share\oracle\admin\opendoors>exp80 userid_at_tnsname/password

Export: Release 8.0.3.0.0 - Production on Sun Sep 20 11:15:51 1998

EXP-00056: ORACLE error 12203 encountered
ORA-12203: TNS:unable to connect to destination
EXP-00222:

System error message 2
System error message: No such file or directory EXP-00000: Export terminated unsuccessfully

I am hopeful that someone can point in the right direction of several confronting me about how this new error might have cropped up???

THANKS IN ADVANCE.
