Operating Systems AIX SQLoader & SQLplus error ? Post 303007972 by rbatte1 on Friday 24th of November 2017 06:31:44 AM

The commands ping and tnsping do different tasks. The ping will target an IP address, be that a server, desktop, switch, security camera, fridge or whatever networked device. tnsping on the other hand will take the name and try to make a connection to the running Oracle SID. It will first have to determine which host the database is on and get the IP address, so in at least needs to be able to ping the server. It will then use the name you give it and try to open a conversation with the listener (typically on port 1521 or the server) and check if the SID is valid.

The contents of tnsnames.ora provides the translation between the name you use and the server & name that the listener will respond to. The name you use could be changed to another by tnsnames.ora and/or another by the listener on the target server to get to the actual Oracle instance. If you are unable to validate the connection with tnsping, you will not be able to connect, however in your case you can't even get tnsping to start.

These errors suggest that you have not set up the environment correctly on your desktop or client, and that would explain why it cannot connect too, because it will not know where to find the tnsnames.ora file.

You should (at the least) have entries in your $PATH that included where executables are. Do you have a colleague that this works for that we can compare?

It would be good to see the output for both you & your colleague for:-
Code:
uname -a
ps
echo $PATH
echo $ORACLE_HOME
echo $ORACLE_SID
find / -name tnsnames.ora -o -name oraenv 2>/dev/null

You might also try
Code:
/u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/client_1/bin/tnsping database-name

to see the tool start, but I would not expect it to find tnsnames.ora so it will probably not connect. You might like to post the output in the thread too.


Please post all output/errors in CODE tags to make it easier to read and to preserve the spacing/indenting.



Thanks, in advance,
Robin

bputa

BPUTA(1)							 CFDP executables							  BPUTA(1)

NAME

       bputa - BP-based CFDP UT-layer adapter

SYNOPSIS

       bputa

DESCRIPTION

       bputa is a background "daemon" task that sends and receives CFDP PDUs encapsulated in DTN bundles.

       The task is spawned automatically by cfdpadmin in response to the 's' command that starts operation of the CFDP protocol; the text of the
       command that is used to spawn the task must be provided as a parameter to the 's' command.  The link service input task is terminated by
       cfdpadmin in response to an 'x' (STOP) command.

EXIT STATUS

       0   bputa terminated normally, for reasons noted in the ion.log file.  If this termination was not commanded, investigate and solve the
	   problem identified in the log file and use cfdpadmin to restart bputa.

       1   bputa terminated abnormally, for reasons noted in the ion.log file.	Investigate and solve the problem identified in the log file, then
	   use cfdpadmin to restart bputa.

FILES

       No configuration files are needed.

ENVIRONMENT

       No environment variables apply.

DIAGNOSTICS

       The following diagnostics may be issued to the ion.log log file:

       CFDP can't attach to BP.
	   bpadmin has not yet initialized BP protocol operations.

       CFDP can't open own endpoint.
	   Most likely another bputa task is already running.  Use cfdpadmin to stop CFDP and restart.

       CFDP can't get Bundle Protocol SAP.
	   Most likely a BP configuration problem.  Use bpadmin to stop BP and restart.

       bputa can't attach to CFDP.
	   cfdpadmin has not yet initialized CFDP protocol operations.

       bputa can't dequeue outbound CFDP PDU; terminating.
	   Possible system error.  Check ion.log for additional diagnostic messages.

       bputa can't send PDU in bundle; terminating.
	   Possible system error.  Check ion.log for additional diagnostic messages.

       bputa can't track PDU; terminating.
	   Possible system error.  Check ion.log for additional diagnostic messages.

       bputa bundle reception failed.
	   Possible system error; reception thread terminates.	Check ion.log for additional diagnostic messages.

       bputa can't receive bundle ADU.
	   Possible system error; reception thread terminates.	Check ion.log for additional diagnostic messages.

       bputa can't handle bundle delivery.
	   Possible system error; reception thread terminates.	Check ion.log for additional diagnostic messages.

       bputa can't handle inbound PDU.
	   Possible system error; reception thread terminates.	Check ion.log for additional diagnostic messages.
