I have a DB connection problem that I cannot resolve and need your help.
 
Standalone Dell 8200 PC using XP Prof. with 61.6 GB of free space.
 
A couple of days ago I installed my 9.2 DB successfully and was able to connect with SQL*Plus and TOAD.
 
Then yesterday I installed 9iDS Rel. 2 which finished with no errors. 
Destination for DS is:
Name:  IDSHome
Path: C:\IDSHome1
 
The 9.2 DB is located at C:\oracle\admin . . . \ora92 . . . \oradata
 
Now I'm having a problem connecting the DB.  I can connect via SQL*Plus but not TOAD.  I tried connecting to the Forms Developer/Builder, Designer, and Reports Developer/Builder and get the same error message.
 
ORA-12154:TNS: Could not resolve service name.  Service name specified is not defined in TNSNAMES.ORA file.
 
And when I go to Services for DS I get:
OracleIDSHomeAgent  - fails (will not run even with numerous start attempts)
OracleIDSHomeClientCache - runs
Both have startup type of manual.
 
Attached is my TNSNAMES.ORA file.
 
One thing I didn't do is reboot my PC prior to the start of this installation.  I didn't think I needed to since this is the first installation for DS.
 
Anyone have any idea what is wrong and how I go about correcting it? 
 
Any and all help will be greatly appreciated.
 
Thanks,
Ken
