Home -> Community -> Usenet -> c.d.o.server -> Re: Error messages not displayed
On my server there is only one instance of Oracle Database 10.
Installation path is /opt/oracle/orcldb
$ORACLE_HOME/bin is correctly set and tnsping is in that directory.
if i try 'which tnsping' i get /opt/oracle/orcldb/bin/tnsping.
All functions of database works (emctl, sqlplus, etc...)! But messages are not displayed correctly !!
:-)
