I am trying to create a database connection from ArcGIS desktop 10.1 to SDE Geodatabase on Oracle server with direct connection using Oracle easy connect syntax So, from ArcCatalog I use "Add database connection" then I chose Oracle in database platform
then in the instance I write down
myserver: port/serviceid
so I write
dbserer:1539/devDatabase
but it gives me ora-12154 TNS:could not resolve the connect identifier
I thought by using the easy connect I don't have to worry about TNS names
