Hi all,

My Oracle database NLS language is AMERICAN English.
In DBD::Oracle, what variable/value should I set?
Thanks.

Hi all,

Tried TNS_ADMIN =/opt/instantclient_10_2/ and
ORACLE_USERID=scott/ti...@zmy12sora02 but still same error.
I have set ORACLE_HOME=/opt/instantclient_10_2/ and many different
settings combination for TNS_ADMIN and ORACLE_USERID but still not
successful. I am wondering what DBD::Oracle needs.
I set NLS_LANG=.WE8ISO8859P15 , tried different settings for NLS_LANG
such as .UTF8, .AL32UTF8, .UTF_8 but all not successful. I set NLS_NCHAR
= AL32UTF8 and not successful.
What is other NLS related setting(s)?
Thanks.
Yeow

ok you had these set before
I just noticed you have

TNS_ADMIN =/opt/instantclient_10_2/network/admin

that should point to the dir where you TNSNAME.ORA file is.  so I think
it should be
TNS_ADMIN =/opt/instantclient_10_2/


as well ass you have
ORACLE_SID=CGISSRND
TWO_TASK= zmy12sora02

set
I would just drop those two and just use the following

ORACLE_USERID=scott/ti...@zmy12sora02

Hope this helps

Hi all,

I am using tnsnames.ora file in my Oracle Instantclient folder.
The tnsnames.ora file content is listed below:
 zmy12sora02 =
        (DESCRIPTION =
                (ADDRESS_LIST =
                (ADDRESS =
                (COMMUNITY = tcp.world)
                (PROTOCOL = TCP)
                 (Host = 10.228.140.12)
                 (Port = 1521)
                )
                )
                (CONNECT_DATA = (SID = CGISSRND)
                )
        )


My remote database hostname is zmy12sora02 (IP address is 10.228.140.12).
When I connect using SQLPlus, I am using the command below:
# sqlplus scott/ti...@zmy12sora02

I can connect using another user/password with dba role too.
However, in DBI/DBD make test, it cannot connect. Why?
Thanks.
Yeow

How are you connecting with SQLPLus?

Still failed with TNS_ADMIN configured & exported.
I tried another user with dba role but same error.
sqlplus can connect but DBD::Oracle cannot, how to troubleshoot what is preventing it to connect?
Thanks.

last change TNS_ADMIN

set this to the dir where you tnsnames.ora is located

If all of these faile then there is something in your network that is

prefenting DBD::Oracle from connecting.

cheers

    Aw well you might want to set the NLS_LANG=.WE8ISO8859P15 just in
    case as well

        would not be a correct connection string  give

            There is a user scott, otherwise I cannot logon manually

            I am using the same username password to logon for my

            I have set ORACLE_USERID but still no luck.
