ORA-12532: TNS:invalid argument
I installed Oracle 10.0.1 server and created a database called OTXT.I can use the configuration assistant to do everything.I can tnsping,sqlplus etc etc on this server.
On top of this since I suspect the oracle client files are problematic I installed oracle client 11.0.1 on this on a different oracle home.
When I configure listener I get the error listener is already being used in this computer.When I do tnsping I get TNS-12532: TNS:invalid argument
As you can see from the screen it is using the new client files.The reason why I want to use Oracle client 11 on a Oraserver 10 is clearly because the 10 client is not working and the application manufacturer is not helping either so I am picking the next higher cleint which again is certified.

Well, if I called the wrong number, why did you answer the phone?
