I tried to connect to oracle database version 8.1.7 from ASP.Net 1.1 and get this error message:

ORA-12154 TNS:Could not resolve service name

I get this same message whether I use OLEDB Provider for Oracle or  .Net data provider for Oracle etc..

I think it has something to do with permissions.  I am able to connect to Oracle with PL/SQL Developer but not through ASP.Net.  I granted permission to the Oracle Home to IUSR_.. and IWAM_..

Can anyone please help? 

Thanks,

Finally bottomed this one using tools from sysinternals -

For some reason ASP uses the registry (rather than environment variables) to locate TNS_ADMIN - so you need to add a TNS_ADMIN key to the registry.

Under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREORACLE
Add a string value named TNS_ADMIN and set its value to the location of the TNSNAMES.ORA file (C:OracleInstantClient in my case).

You also need to ensure that ASPNET account has full priveleges on the directories where your oracle client files reside.

Hope this helps

Thanks Mark. I actually resolved it. In Win2K, I needed to grant ASPNET permission to oracle home directory and on down.
