Hi All,

I need some assistance with an issue we are experiencing on an ODBC connection on a Windows Server 2008 Enterprise 64-bit box. I have updated the TNSNAMES.ORA file to include the new data source in the correct location and have created a new system DSN. When I test the connection via the ODBC Data Source Adminstrator, it returns as "Connection successful".

However, when I try to connect via TM1 (TI Process), the connection fails with the following messagebox text:

"Unable to Open Connection to Database."

There is also the following error reported in the log files:

Code: Select all

9132   [dc]   INFO   2014-04-01 10:40:01.703   TM1.SQLAPI         Driver supports SQLFetchScroll

1000   [e7]   ERROR   2014-04-01 11:13:20.999   TM1.SQLAPI   E16) Cannot connect to ODBC data source "XXX"  08004[Oracle][ODBC][Ora]ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve the connect identifier specified
.
1000   [e7]   ERROR   2014-04-01 11:13:20.999   TM1.SQLAPI   08003[Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Connection not open

I can, however connect to other ODBC datasources absolutely fine.

I am using 64-bit ODBC drivers and a 64-bit TM1 server, version 10.2.00100.39992. TNSPing is fine and I can also SELECT * FROM DUAL fine using SQLPlus on the server.

The service is running as a local account.

Any help greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Dan

This has been resolved, I believe by updating the connection information to include the fully-qualified DSN entry. Looks like TM1 requires this.
