<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Hi...</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">I am new to this list so please apologize if I do not know yet the etiquette in her and if the error I get confused with is a trivial one. I am a Perl devloper but Oracle is rather new to me.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">My job is to move an RT 3.6.5 to an RT 3.8.0. The OS is RHEL5. The database system is an remote Oracle server.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">So far so good.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">I installed the Oracle client along with RT and always get the error mentioned above.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">in $ORACLE_HOME/network/admin there reside the following .ora files: ldap.ora, sqlnet.ora and tnsnames.ora ( I can send them if needed, just don't wanted to send a huge bunch of files).</FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">All perl modules seem to be installed.</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Can anybody give me a hint on where to look for a solution?</FONT>
