TNS_ADMIN 2004-11-09 - By Hately, Mike (LogicaCMG)
Hi,
Al,
The order should be this :
- $TNSNAMES (if set)
- /etc
- $ORACLE_HOME/network/admin
I think you may have a stray tnsnames.ora in your /etc directory.
Cheers,
Mike

ERROR at line 2:

COUNT(*)

QUESTION:
The tnsnames.ora is in the default location and it is not found until
TNS_ADMIN is set. How do I find out where TNS_ADMIN is pointing at the
system level, if there is such a thing ? Why do I have to set TNS_ADMIN at
the session level ?????
TIA,
