The oracle instance TTTEST is not defined in the tnsnames.ora file on the box where you issued the sqlplus command.

You can (most of the time) get a pretty good description of the causes of an error by running oerr, eg
Code:
$ oerr ora 12154
12154, 00000, "TNS:could not resolve service name"
// *Cause:  The service name specified is not defined correctly in the
// TNSNAMES.ORA file.
// *Action:  Make the following checks and correct the error:
//           - Verify that a TNSNAMES.ORA file exists and is in the proper
//             place and accessible. See the operating system specific manual
//             for details on the required name and location.
//           - Check to see that the service name exists in one of the
//             TNSNAMES.ORA files and add it if necessary.
//           - Make sure there are no syntax errors anywhere in the file.
//             Particularly look for unmatched parentheses or stray characters.
//             Any error in a TNSNAMES.ORA file makes it unusable. See
//             Chapter 4 in the SQL*Net V2 Administrator's Guide. If
//             possible, regenerate the configuration files using the Oracle
//             Network Manager.

How can i try other structure for sqlplus?
or are there any other way for running sqlplus?

Most likely the process is reading a different parameter file.
You could:

1. Try to set and export the TNS_ADMIN variable to the correct path explicitly.
2. Use the following syntax (requires version >= 9?).


Code:
sqlplus <user>/<pass>@'(description=(address=(protocol=tcp)(host=<hostname>)(port=<port>))(connect_data=(sid=<oracle_sid>)))'

thanx radoulov,pludi,jim.

i tried it on production environment and result is successfully.

But now, i need to assign result of sql to variable. How can i do this?

Assume that "select t.deger from parametre t where t.id=30" is return me 100 value,
i need to assign 100 to x variable.
How can i do this.

by the way my sql expression is in the umtt.sql

Thanx for helping

I think it should be better if you try to explain what exactly you're trying to achieve.
Do you really need to use shell scripting? Why don't you do all the processing in the database?
