Yes its there, infact in this box earlier installed Cognos MR1.3 which worked fine. I uninstalled the MR1.3 and installed Cognos 8. Now i am getting the Issue. This is how the PATH is set

C:\oracle\ora92\bin;C:\Program Files\Oracle\jre\1.3.1\bin

Please let me knwo if u r referring to any other PATH

Thanks

Have you only just installed the oracle client software??

If yes, you must reboot the computer so that all the oracle stuff gets registered properly....

I'm having the same problem.
I can use SQL Developer to connect to the database from my server and from the machine where I have installed framework manager. But I'm not able to create a connection from Cognos administration.

I'm using Cognos 8.4.

What should be a correct SQL*Net connect string for Oracle?

Kalyan,

I am not sure if you have looked at this KB
http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=3442&context=SS9RTN&context=SSWGNW&q1=cogudaor&uid=swg21343258&loc=en_US&cs=utf-8&lang=en

Can you confirm, this is not the case in your scenario?

Kulkarni: Thanks a lot for this solution!

It helped me a lot! I really hate the fact that the error message is the same for entering wrong values as when having a 64bit Oracle client. But now the problem is solved!
