I think you did not configure your Data source (ODBC) using the the ODBC Data source Administartor Panel. Did you add the Oracle ODBC driver using the File DNS tab. If well confogured, it will work. -

4. Re: ODBC Error
Enterprise Manager is version 9.2.0.1.0
Is this the same as the client version? I couldn't find anywhere else that gave a version number.
Thanks,

I didn't know there was any other way of doing it. So yes, I did configure the data source using the ODBC Data Source Administrator panel.

No, I did it as a System DSN. It used to work... just recently I have started getting these error messages. I have installed Application Server and a newer version of JDeveloper since the last time the ODBC worked.

I tried it just now as a File DSN but that didn't work either. -
6. Re: ODBC Error
I assume that you installed the application server into a different Oracle Home than the Oracle client. If you go to the Oracle Home Administrator, try selecting the home of your Oracle client. Let me know if that fixes things.

7. Re: ODBC Error
Have you tested you JDeveloper connection to your database to see if the connection is ok without the ODBC. If it does then reconfig your ODBC. -
8. Re: ODBC Error
I assume that you installed the application server
Well, that helped a lot, but now there is another problem. I don't get the bizarre error any more, but I can't login as a regular user. I tried the following logins: (ap is the user I want to use for the login)

service name=(blank) user=ap -> doesn't work
service name=orcl user=ap -> doesn't work
service name=(blank) user=system -> works
service name=orcl user=system -> doesn't work
I can make do with logging in as system as this is just a development machine. But if anyone can shed some light on this, that would be great!
Thanks for everyone's suggestions and comments so far.

have you created that user you want to use and grant the necessary privileges to the user. -

Are you logging in to a database on the local machine or on a remote machine? What error message do you get when your logins fail?

12. Re: ODBC Error
The user is created and has privileges, which is how I can use it in SQL Plus, etc.
Are you logging in to a database on the local machine
Everything is local.
or on a remote machine? What error message do you
get when your logins fail?
When I use the service name ORCL with user as either system or ap, I get a ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve service name.
When I use a blank service name and user ap, I get ORA-01017: invalud username/password; logon denied
I don't know why ORCL would not be recognized. It works (and seems to be required) when I logon in SQL Plus. This is the entry in tnsnames.ora: (I renamed every other instance of tnsnames.ora that I found on the system.)
ORCL =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = grapevin-pnanmy)(PORT = 1521))
)
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVER = DEDICATED)
(SERVICE_NAME = ORCL.WORKGROUP)
)
)
Thank you,

Can you type "tnsping ORCL" at the command-line and see if that works?

No luck. It says TNS-03505: Failed to resolve name
see if that works?
