    Fresh install
    Win98, 8i pers.edition (SID=ORCL) and 6i Dev
    c:\oracle\orapo c:\oracle\oradev

    edited C:\Oracle\Oradev\Net80\Admin\tnsnames.ora
    adding

    PO8 =
    (DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = BEQ)
    (PROGRAM = oracle80)
    (ARGV0 = oracle80ORCL)
    (ARGS = '(DESCRIPTION=(LOCAL=YES)
    (ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=beq)))'))
    (CONNECT_DATA = (SID = ORCL))
    )

    but I get ORA-12174: TNS can't resolve service name
    when I try system/manager with connect string "po8"
    on sqlplus, same problem with Form Builder

    Find all of the tnsnames.ora files on your server and make sure they are the same.

    You can ignore the ones in "Sample" folders.

    Good luck.
