I have Oracle 11 running on a Windows server and I'm logged onto the same server trying to use SQL Plus. When I try to connect I get a ORA-12154 even though TNSPING and various other diagnostics look OK.
Can anyone suggest why ? Loads of detail below.
I can use sqlplus if I use EZCONNECT like this ..
sqlplus EST/EST@192.168.10.15/ORCL
... but if I try to connect using TNSNAMES like this ...
sqlplus EST/EST@ORCL
... I get ...
ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve the connect identifier specified
TNSPING works OK

Create an environment variable TNS_ADMIN that points to the directory where your tnsnames.ora file resides. Then try to connect with sqlplus.
If that works, then my guess is you maybe installed the Oracle client software too, and when you run sqlplus, it looks for the tnsnames.ora file in your client home.
-- Instructions for Adding the Environment variable TNS_ADMIN in windows
1. Go to control panel / system
2. select Advanced system settings
3. Select "Advanced" tab, and the environment variable button is at the bottom.
4. create new variable TNS_ADMIN and give the path where the .ora files are stored. e.g. C:\app\oracle\product\11.2.0\client_1\network\admin
Sqlplus will give this error if you have an at-sign (@) in your password, which you do. Sqlplus thinks you are inputting the connection string as a parameter. Change your password (you can do this with SQL Developer).
Moral: Don't use at-signs in Oracle passwords.
