Oracle TNS: net service name is incorrecly specified

Question

Help! I\'m a newbie to Oracle who\'s trying to access a database on an old server we inherited for a client.

I\'m confident I have the oracle database and listener start

Answer 1

In my case, the problem was that the DSN and the ServiceName was configured as the same in the odbc.ini file.This should not be a problem, but only after changing the DSN name, I was able to connect to the database through isql.
